Okay, so I combined two prompts. The weekly prompt of "First Meeting" and Rage's guest prompt "Not for all the cheese in Ferelden." And yes, I took a few liberties, but it seemed to work in my head. 
It was at the first of one of their few visits at the Pearl that Alistair and Marlana had the “wonderful” opportunity to meet one of Zev’s great friends: Isabela. He’d sworn up and down that they’d like the female ship’s captain. Very bold and daring, had traveled to all ports of Thedas, the tales she could tell and even better, she was a skilled duelist who was known to teach her tricks to those piqued her interest. At Lana’s dubious expression, the assassin grinned, “Yes, yes, I know that the Pearl is a ****house, but you said the good Sergeant Kylon was looking to have you oust some annoying mercenaries, no?”
Lana looked over at Alistair who shrugged, “Can’t hurt I supposed, but this is someone that Zev calls a friend…”
She smiled faintly, “Are you implying something? Since he calls both of us friend.”
“Wellll, you are kind of troublesome…” He grinned and ducked her mock slap.
“If I’m trouble, what are you?”
“In up to my neck and rapidly sinking. And not regretting a moment.”
Lana’s eyes narrowed as he grinned at her, daring her to say something. Instead she laughed ruefully, “All right, Ser Sinking, let’s go see who in the rest of the troublemakers wants to go on our little expedition there.”
It wasn’t terribly surprising that the rest wanted to go, though she didn’t really want to know why Wynne, Morrigan and Sten wanted to go to the ****house, and didn’t dare ask. The really disturbing part was that Shale expressed curiosity about seeing a “den of iniquity”. She very firmly decided she didn’t want to know where the golem had picked up that phrase, especially the way Shale grinned as she said it.
Sangra, the “proprietress” of the Pearl, was quite pleased to see Marlana when the Warden told her that she was there to deal with the troublesome mercs that didn’t seem to want to leave. When Sangra got a good look at those accompanying Lana, she seemed momentarily at a loss of words, particularly with the Qunari and golem. Fortunately, it was easy enough to send the ruffians packing with a little gentle persuasion on Marlana’s part, especially with Alistair looming over her shoulder.
Pleased that there wasn’t any violence to disturb the guests and the workers, Sangra gave them a healthy discount on their drinks for their visit. As they sat chatting idly, and Lana was most definitely not going to ask where Morrigan and Sten had disappeared to, that Zev brought over the captain to their table. A tall, voluptuous woman with bronzed skin, dark golden hair and hazel eyes dressed in tightly laced, white leathers that left nothing to the imagination, Isabela was most definitely trouble. And not what Alistair would consider the good kind like he did with Lana.
Sapphire eyes regarded the woman somewhat warily, but their owner gave a polite smile and genially invited the duelist to join them. Isabela proved to have a deep throaty purr of a voice as she explained how she knew Zevran. She regarded the slight woman thoughtfully, and the dual blades at Lana’s back even more so, “Zev tells me that you might make a good student, Marlana.”
Lana nodded cautiously, “He said there might be a few things that I might find interesting.”
The smile she got in return was disturbing. “Indeed, but I would need to test you first. And there is the matter of payment of course.”
“What manner of test and payment?”
“Oh, it can be the same activity. See if you can beat me in a game of cards, or…” She trailed off musingly.
Lana became even more wary, “Or what?”
Isabela’s smile turned lascivious as she eyed Marlana up and down in a way that made some of Zevran’s previous looks seem positively tame. Lana could feel herself turning red, she’d never had anyone make her feel that dirty, and from the corner of her eye she could see Alistair flushing in embarrassment. But she could also see the way he clenched his jaw, he was…jealous?
The duelist laughed, “Oh my dear girl, have you never had anyone admire you before? Particularly that handsome lad that doesn’t leave your side?”
Refusing to look at anyone as she tried, and horribly failed, at controlling her blushes, Lana mutely shook her head.
“In that case my dear, I can teach you so much more than just the use of your blades. And no need to be jealous, Alistair. You’d be more than welcome to join in.”
Both of them turned even brighter, if that was possible, and Isabela laughed merrily, “Oh Zevran, you find the best surprises. Such a pair of lovely, young virgins.” Clearly amused at their expense she asked, “What will it be, sweet Marlana?”
Faintly, “Thank you, captain, but I think I’ll pass. If you’ll excuse me, I’m going out for air.”
As Lana walked off without looking like she was running, she didn’t hear what Isabela asked Alistair, but she did hear his response very clearly as he scrambled to join her, “No. Absolutely not. Not even for all of the cheese in Ferelden.”

Decided to do a Dalish playthrough.
Is it bad that even though I have access to alot of other hairstyles, I still pick the Morrigan style? Hmm..

@Reika: Damn that bashful Alistair, he gets all the girls.... scratch that he gets all the straight girls. Or at least the ones who are trying to save the World.
Alistair: Look at her, I mean just LOOK at her. Its like she's got the entire world on her shoulders and yet there she is marching forward ready to hock something unpleasant into the face of danger.
Leliana: Who - who are you talking to Alistair?
Alistair: The part of me who dares to think I'm good enough to share more than just this patch of world with - Her.
Leliana: *giggles* I guess I'm not the only one who hears voices.
Alistair: Big difference, you see I don't get any response back. Well other than the urge to...
Leliana: To what? Ooh I want to know!
Alistair: Oh no, you'll just use it as an excuse to tell me some long-winded story about stars and tear loosening unpleasant endings.
Leliana: Aww, the big Templar doesn't want to cry?
Alistair: No, the big Grey Warden doesn't want to share his rather embarassing dream that starts with cheese and ends in lightning.
Leliana: I - I think I hear Morrigan calling me.
Alistair: You're a terrible liar for a bard.

I never ever heard Alistair talk of cheese in anyway until after several playthroughs later, I thought everyone was insane. "This is is clearly some BSN Meme" was my thought process. Then I forgot what I had a f!warden ask him about I think in camp or in Lothering and he mentioned cheese. I was like "Oh, I get it now. I should not always do the same dialogue choices all the time."
But yeah I imagine he inwardly debates with himself the entire time he is crushing on AND romancing the Warden. I know I would - The Warden is just that awesome.

Three really fun prompt fills....
Meri - Lol, I can see Alistair behind the proverbial 8-ball for a long time to come, I like your Lenya very much!
Reika - Can just see their blazing red faces, well done!
Esbatty - Lol, great banter, loved how it ended, great line!

@Esbatty - the cheese line comes from the talk just before entering Redcliffe if you ask him if he has any other secrets. He says something like, "Other than a mild obsession with my hair and a love of fine cheese, no." What I find funny is that this one line has sparked so much ff! It's great!
And since I haven't posted an Ali pic lately, enjoy!

Help! Has anyone ever taken Alistair to Redcliffe and had him NOT tell you he's a bastard? That just happened and I'm not sure if it's a bug or simply because his current approval is -1. Any clues?

I assume this was your first trip to Redcliffe? IIRC it doesn't fire if you've been there before, even if you only popped in briefly then realised you'd forgotten him.

@Wulfram - Yes, first trip. I've just never had him at a negative approval before so I can't tell if he just wouldn't bother explaining to someone he doesn't like or if the game glitched.
On a complete side note... if you refuse to help defend Redcliffe you get a -5 approval from Alistair, but if you agree, you only get a +2... makes NO sense. ROFL Randi's helping (thanks to having an open quest) but Alistair is growing steadily more annoyed with her since she refused at first. Alistair may be easy to romance if you're playing a good character, but otherwise, he's impossible!!

@ Tigress - it's probable because of the approval. But don't worry, Eamon will drop the dime on him if he doesn't come clean.
@essbatty - cheese & lightning - pure win
@ Reika - Like. My wardens always avoid her, she gives them the creeps (she could probably give them allot more than that too).

Well, it will be moot for the time being. Gah! My quicksave file got corrupted (this happens from time to time) so I had to go back to my last auto-save, just as I was leaving Lothering. So... I decided to go pick up Shale instead of heading to Redcliffe. I'll deal with the whole Redcliffe thing later and who knows, Ali will still probably be at a negative approval so we'll see if it happens again, then.

Reika, Like that fill. Especially like the touch with Morrigan and Sten. Playing out thier little banter? Hmmm? Was she wearing full armor? lol
Esbatty, Wonderful piece. In the end would he have melted cheese?
tgail, Your Dalish is lovely. And if you like a certain hairstyle, there is nothing wrong with that. *whistles at own use of one particular hairstyle*
Tigress, I think his approval might have that effect. I know when I had my Phillip run going, I didn't get any of that speech. Alistair was at -28 when we got there.
