@Holy - Isn't it though? I love that convo! Zev has some of the best party banter in the entire game, I think.

I love that one. He mentions her bosoms a couple of times.HolyAvenger wrote...
I just got the magica bosoms convo for the first. Epic lulz.
I just got the "control rod" convo with Shale. It had me rolling on the floor for about 10 minutes.:happy:

@Cat - THAT is one of my two favorite banters of all-time! Zev's "It's the same with us" reply just cracks me up EVERY time.

I like pretty much every Zev/Shale banter. Oghren and Zevran also have some really good ones... just about the only time I find Oghren funny is when he's talking to Zevran. I especially love the one that ends in Zevran offering him a piggyback ride.

@Tellervo - Piggyback ride? I don't believe I've heard that one! Will make a point to run around with Oghren more this game... just to get a chance to try and hear it. lol
Can't look it up as I'm at work, but the one that ends with something like, "I'll carry you around on my back, like a child! It will be marvelous fun!"

Zev/Ogren comedy double act! Kinda like Shen and Morrigan some characters just need to be together often.

Oghren and Shale were hogging up all the conversation in the deep roads in my game.
Hahaha, the first banter I got out of Oghren was, "So, you and the boss, huh?" "If you mean what I think you mean, then yes." "Huh. Well, good luck with that." (or however it goes) Oghren's awkward tone in that exchange is pretty entertaining.

lol, I think that was my first banter out of Oghren as well. XD Either that or, "So... Antiva. Wonderful place. Full of Antivans..." His tone there cracks me up.Tellervo wrote...

Oh, and as mentioned previously!
- Oghren: I would have thought saving the surface would have involved less walking.
- Zevran: Little legs getting tired?
- Oghren: I thought these people had animals. Horses and such.
- Zevran: In Orlais, perhaps, but not here. If you like, I could hoist you up on my back.
- Oghren: Hey now, don't start with the--
- Zevran: Yes, climb up, and I'll cart you around like a child! Marvelous fun!
- Oghren: You knife-eared pipe-cleaner, you couldn't carry me on your best day.
- Zevran: Mmmm. Perhaps if you left behind the spirits, all the weapons, and lost about two feet of beard...
- Oghren: Ach. I give up. Just keep walking.

Although I have to say, my favorite Zev party banter of all time is the one he has with Loghain:

Frightening Appearance
"This is... a lot of ink, my dear Warden." Zevran looked at the charcoal sketch, then up at Adriana
Cousland. "A Dalish elf would think it was, perhaps, a bit much."
"No, Zev, it's just right." Adriana practically vibrated excitement, beaming over his shoulder at the
picture. It showed her own face, features masked by a pattern of tiled scales around her eyes. Faux horns
swooped across her forehead, into the hairline, and the snout covered her own nose, mouth and chin. Scales even
descended her neck. Two spots near the bend of her jaw were about all that was left bare.
He hadn't minded covering her arms with scales. Her back was a larger project, and he had to start to wonder if
maybe she was taking the dragon theme a bit far. Once the back was done, though, it only made sense to continue
the tail, wrapped around her right leg. He'd been expecting a request for the other leg to come soon, but her
face?
"Adriana," he protested, "you understand... this does not come off, yes? Your lovely face will be wearing this
mask always."
She poked him in the shoulder, hard. "I'm not an idiot. Yes, I know it doesn't come off. I'm
not a lovely person, Zev. I know things, about pain and blood, power and death." She leaned
forward, suddenly soft against his back. "You even taught me some of them," she said, low in his ear. "The
Wardens taught me others. And the dragon... the dragon taught me most of all."
She said she didn't believe the dragon was the Risen Andraste, as Kolgrim called her. That was... somewhat
reassuring. But she idolized the great lizard all the same, to lengths that he'd thought were eccentric... until
he remembered some of his own excesses, upon becoming a full Crow. Whatever had passed in the Frostbacks, it had
made a new woman out of Adriana Cousland, and that sort of rebirth could cause all sorts of enthusiasms.
"Yes, of course. I have practically transformed you into a dragon, amora," he said, tilting his
head back to look up at her. "I may be somewhat jealous of this dragon, in fact."
She laughed, a hard sound. "Awww. You like my pretty face?" Her features set. "I hate
it. It's... false. And I'm not some Orlesian bard, hiding behind pretty. I'm a
terror in the dark, and they should fear me."
He reached up to touch one of her sun-kissed cheeks. "I would miss this, yes," he said, trying a smile.
Unexpectedly, she grabbed his wrist roughly. "I don't care! It's mine," she hissed. "There is
damn little left in the world I can say that about. It's mine and I'll do with it as I
please. If you won't do it, then I'll find someone who -- "
"Warden!" he protested. "I did not mean... of course, of course it can be ask you desire." She would
have it done, whether he liked it or not. He would still rather be her artist; if anyone was going to mark
her so, it should be him. And he might be able to... soften the design some, make the lines more graceful.
"Let me... let me practice the designs, perhaps craft a variation or two to show you, and you tell me which pleases
you best."
The iron grip on his wrist eased, and she pressed it to her lips for a kiss. "Sorry, Zev," she mumbled into the
fine skin there. "Didn't mean to get so angry. But I know what I'm doing. Really."
He turned in place, sketch fluttering to the ground. Ideas for abstracting and softening the design dissolved as
he ran his fingers through her hair. "Of course, my fearsome Warden."
I really enjoyed seeing into the mind of Adriana. There is a depth of passion and pain that just can't be conveyed in-game and you've given us a glimpse into Adriana's soul. A rare and greatly appreciated gift.

A Fine Canvas
What struck me the most with this was the way you talked all around the reason behind the tattoo, never coming out and saying exactly what it meant, but leaving the reader with no question in their mind as to its intent and purpose. This plays so well with Zevran as a whole and it's was wonderful to see him in a relationship with someone just as reluctant to put their true thoughts and feelings into words.

Entry here (Somewhat NSFW)
Tattoo magic is a wonderful concept! And the pain and suffering you allude to in Zevran's recent past just tore out my heart.

Tattoos for Alistair
This was a wonderful piece of art! I loved how much expression you were able to get on Zevran's face. And the theme... hilarious!
Non-Entries
I loved seeing the Warden and Zevran picking on Alistair... all in good fun of course! But even I, loving Alistair as much as I do, know just how easy it is to tease him. You really outdid yourself here!

Juxtaposition
Like I said in my blog comment, the "I will endure the trials of life." was powerfully moving. Very well done.

The winner for this week is mousestalker! You really thought outside the box with the whole Lyrium thing and I admire that. And... since this is your first prompt win, guess what? You get the honor of coming up with next week's prompt!
Thank you all for the awesome entries! I had a really hard time deciding.
And, thank you for making me feel so welcome here. I feel like I have made several new friends over the past couple of weeks and I love it!
