4.) Fenris is trying to locate his sister, and is also taking jobs as a mercenary for coin. Mostly to get his sister. How he accomplishes the letters without Hawke's knowledge is anyone's guess. Personally, I think he would find someone to write it for him under Hawke's nose. Plus he would be very into his study of learning to read/write because he might want to try to send her something himself.


This is a good point actually...who would Fenris ask to write his letters? Considering there's a party banter where Varric basically tells him "dude, you should try harder to make friends", we can assume that, aside from Hawke's crew, he barely interacts with anybody on more than a necessary basis. However, Varric could be a likely candidate that would also understand why he'd want to keep the letters from Hawke.
 


Donnic, perhaps?  He and Fenris have regular meetings at Fenris' mansion, just the two of them, according to a banter with Aveline, supposedly to play cards, but from a Legacy banter with Aveline, it's clear that Fenris and Donnic are actually quite close, since Donnic talks to Fenris about what he'd like for the future with Aveline (children, specifically), so I can easily see Fenris sharing his search for Varania with Donnic and enlisting his help once he's reached the letter-sending stage, assuming Fenris wasn't yet confident enough in his writing skill to do it himself.  I also sort of assume he spent most of the gap looking, and only found her/got confirmation that the girl he found was his sister towards the very end of it.

EDIT: Oh, bugger, ToP.  I'm never prepared for this.  Hmm.

It's apparently extremely difficult to learn to write once you're an adult, so if he also had to learn to read from scratch, I doubt he'd be in any shape to write a satisfactory letter to his sister after only 3 years. Especially since Hawke isn't exactly a professional teacher, even though I'm sure she/he is very willing.

But yeah, I guess Donnic could also be a valid candidate for writing his letters. I still think Varric is more plausible, but then I haven't heard the banter you're referring to, so they could both be equally likely.

Edit after seeing above post: Happy b-day, Heiden! Image IPB

OooO nice TOP Harle...

Hee... I actually really like the idea of Donnic. I don't know if they really get "close" though until after Danarius. However, he does go to Aveline to ask for assistance with finding his sister. I would think maybe that suggests that he would also be willing to ask Donnic to help him write the letter at least.

I agree that he didn't really have confirmation until the end of it. He states that getting a letter to her was "difficult" and "she didn't believe [him] at first" so he probably sent multiple letters to her over time. I would think Donnic is a good theory. I might just head-canon it, LOL.

Hmm...interesting idea. I don't know how hard it woul be to learn to write as an adult, though I'm guessing that intelligence and hand-eye coordination would play a role.  I had originally head-canon'd Varric, but I later changed that - he's waayy too much of a busybody.  Donnic or perhaps Aveline herself? I'd never considered that, but I could see it.

Head!canon for me is that the reading thing turned into a writing thing over the course of at least a year before the Arishok duel, but that also assumes that the events of Act II take at least a year. (A given in my head!canon unless something has been said otherwise that I wasn't aware of. :) )

Gah. Another plot bunny. I swear they breed like...well, rabbits. :P

(Edit for grammar FAIL.)

Picspamming some Fenris.. mostly because I was editing screenies to relax, and because I feel horrible that I didn't have time to draw something for Heiden's b-day...

MOSTLY BECAUSE I HAD NO IDEA IT WAS COMING UP *kicks self*

so, ummm.... BAMF Fenris...

and Fenris being Fenris-y

and puppy eyes/sweet Fenris

HAPPY B-day Heiden!! I already said it, but I didn't say it here, LOL.

Also, Ursula I loves plot bunnies. It is why I can't ever write full-length fics, but prefer one-shot stories. A scene or a plot bunny will just hit me and I will have to write that scene or that story. Every time I try to write a full length fic I get bored or frustrated with it in the middle and I can't seem to get past it.

The more I think about it though the more I would prefer Fenris to actually go to someone he knows, like Donnic, rather than a stranger or even Varric, who would not be discreet, LOL. That way he could probably put more personal things in the letter and not feel like he would have to kill the messenger or the scribe or be utterly frustrated and embarrassed hiring someone. I don't know if he would go to Aveline to write the letter, but it is as good a choice as Donnic I suppose. He does, after all, ask Aveline for assistance quite often -- since Act 1 when he first moves into the mansion.

I like how he often remarks "I wonder how long I will be allowed to stay here.." when he passes by his mansion in Hightown. As if any moment he could be found out and kicked out. Yet, I think he enjoys having a "home," even if it is a run-down borrowed mansion with dead bodies in the front foyer, LOL.

Yeah. I'm starting to realize that. :) I've started writing some of them as one-offs until I get to that point in the story (act II, etc). Besides, I feel like I've been writing some vegetables lately, and I want to write some dessert! :devil:)

The fact that Aveline seems to be involved in the search is why I wonder if she would be just as good as far as choices go. However, Donnic would probably have more time to assist, and I get the idea that he and Fenris become pretty fast friends over cards anyway. That one seems a little more natural to me.

I like the discussion going on here. I don't really have much to add except.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEIDEN!

I've never done Legacy with Aveline and Fenris (might try that this playthrough), so I never came across Fenris' dialogue about Donnic and Aveline and their future and such. Interesting. I knew they played cards and that Fenris thinks he is "a good man", but I never knew their conversations were ones that you would only initiate if you're good friends with someone. I like that. I truly thought that, apart from "the group", Fenris kept to himself. Its good to see that he actually does have some semblance of a social life. He deserves that.

It's one of my favourite banters:

  * Fenris: Donnic tells me you have spoken of children.
  * Aveline: You two talk too much.
  * Fenris: (chuckles) I picture a red headed brood, each able to lift a cow.
  * Aveline: (laughs) If you also picture Donnic carrying them to term and pushing them out of his ass, then I'm all for it. 

Both for Fenris' clear friendships with Donnic (else why would Donnic bring such a thing up to him?) and Aveline (how happy he sounds about the idea of Aveline having children is so very sweet), and for Aveline's line there.  I love that woman.  B)

Oh geesh, I am about to wear out my PRTSC button .. I have almost 13,000 screenshots total for DA2!! I think I need an intervention or something! I am in the process of picking out exactly which pic of Fenris & Zyza (F!Hawke Blood Mage) I want to post ... will edit soon as I pick one! Dang, I love that broody elf!!

Edit: Since I have absolutely no creative abilities (that's why I am just an amateur photographer!) .. I'm in the process of adding dialogue to a series of screenshots of my F!Hawke & Fenris  .. will post links to the pics soon as they are finished .. maybe someone will get a laugh out of it ...

Awwww! He sounds happy when he says that, does he? That is so sweet! I am definitely taking them both when I play Legacy next! I love how we get to see more of Fenris' humour in this banter! (I adore his humourous side).

I love Aveline as well. She's my favourite female character. And she can he hilarious when she wants to (what she said about Donnic pushing them out of his ass made me laugh!).

Am I a terrible person for thinking this is a great picture? xD

A while back I was thinking about friendmancing Anders for a change, but now I am thinking about friendmancing Isabela. Even though I said I didn't want to try romancing everyone in one playthrough I'm trying it with my mage and it's fun! Except for one part... after sleeping with Isabela, Hawke went to see Anders and I got the cutscene about Isabela and her STD, oops! My mage is going to end up in a rivalmance with Fenris. <3
Anyway, Isabela has always been my favourite female companion, so I have no trouble with trying out her romance. Due to metagaming reasons I don't think I can romance Anders ever again...

Sigh. If anyone else can post the drawing I'm desperately intending to post, please do so. This drawing is seriously drool-worthy.;)

To all the artists in the thread, could you please tell me the name(s) of the programs you use to make all your drawings? I draw the old fashioned way and I love how the computer program drawings turn out, so I'd love to get one. I wanna share my art too!

I'm thinking that this would be a FABULOUS birthday gift - even wrapped in a bow!  Image IPB
Happy Birthday Heiden!!  A martini or two sounds like the perfect way to celebrate - then a few hours of DA2 with our most handsome, broody elf!

I had no idea about that Legacy banter!  I am definitely taking Fenris and Aveline on the next PT. 

I've been remiss at posting as being back at work is cutting into my reading/posting time, but loving all the debates/discussions!!

My quick take on the 3 year gap is similar to Arquen's - I think Hawke has enough going on to not really be worried about a "relationship", and the fact that Fenris is still wearing the armband and crest means he still cares to some extent.  I know if my mother died tragically I wouldn't really be worrying about anything else except trying to sort out my life.  And the fact that they are reading together is probably enough - I know it is for my Hawke.  It is time for them to be together while sorting out their own issues.  And I would imagine that her "housemates" were also a source of comfort for her in her day to day life, and with all the other things going on in the city, it was enough. 
And I'm sure at times Hawke just wanted to be alone and not have to deal with all the problems that are thrust upon her- I know I'd want some down time alone!
