I still kind of want them both to be bi. It would be nice to have options that didn't amount to 'this person' or 'your hand'.
I kid, I kid. Sort of.

I still think Fenris is the most likely m/m love interest (which totally works for me, the tats are kinda hot). Sebastian being a LI at all seems... unlikely at best, and a very good point was made in stating that Justice/Vengeance's possession warped Ander's more or less established sexuality. Although... he could of always been overcompensating and secretly yearned for man on man action Not like I haven't seen it in RL often enough. "Straight" boys are funny :-P

Please, don't have it be Anders with warped sexuality and a host of psychological problems.
After seeing some footage I think I just might like Fenris as a character yet, but again for the romance he'll always look like a teenager who just stepped out of a Japanese comic.
So yes if Sebastian were to be an experiment by Bioware with romance able DLC Li's that would make me very happy provided he's also available to MHawke. Unfortunately I suspect that he's either just plain unavailable as a Li and we will just get a few seconds of cheesy flirt lines or even worse that he might indeed be romance able but only by teh wimminz.
After rereading some of miss Heplers comments I can't rule out the last possibility entirely but given how some people reacted to the possibility in DA:O I don't think Bioware will do two Bi Li's thus leaving us stuck with either a mental patient or a JRPG runaway.

Oh I would rather have the jrpg character. I'm so sick of playing therapist in most games that allow you to have romance and I have a feeling that if he was the m/m romance we'd have to also help him find himself....which I also hate.

I think it will be less of a "fixer relationship" with another side of the rivalry/friendship spectrum.

I am glad to see somebody who want to grab Fenris big and bearded Hawke in some dark place. And their kiss will be the best scene.

You know what, I'm still in that ridiculous situation where whenever I think it's more likely Fenris will be the m/m LI I get sad it won't be Anders, and whenever I think it's more likely Anders will be the m/m LI I get sad it won't be Fenris.
Either way, I'm destined to be both happy and sad, and that quite simply will not do.
Both Anders and Fenris (and Sebastian) for bi LI XD

I'm going for Sebastian but like most dl characters I seriously doubt that it will be him. Fenris seems like a good choice but I like Anders personality the best...I wish they would release a small leak at least to give a clue as to who it will be.

This is what I found regarding Anders:
Anders
The light here isn't right. It's too yellow. Too harsh. And it all comes from above. For a moment, I'm not sure why that seems wrong. The sun… that's always been there, right? What am I remembering?
The word comes back to me. The Fade. I am a mage. I've spent time in the place I remember. It is a land of mist, of dreams. And I'm right; the light there is different, emanating from the ground, the walls, not a single pinpoint source. But I've never been more than a visitor there. Why does it suddenly feel like home?
What else can't I remember?
I sit up, and the light brightens, darkens, steadies. The throb in my head returns and without thinking, I draw on a breath of mana to drive it away. The pain lifts as the magic settles over it, soothing and cooling. I try to think. Let's start with something simple. My name. What is my name?
I am Anders.
I am Justice.
This never used to be so hard.
Suddenly it comes back to me. Justice's voice, my voice, speaking through the rotting face of the body he once claimed. "It is time. You have shown me an injustice greater than any I have faced. Do you have the courage to accept my aid?"
I knew what he offered.
To stay in the mortal realm, he needs a host, a body to inhabit for a lifetime, not a corpse which will rot out from beneath him. If I gave him that, he would give me all he had, all he was. Together, we could remake Thedas into a world where justice rules, not fear.
A world with no Circle. No templars. A world where every mage can learn to use their gifts and still return home at night. Where no mother ever need hide her child… or lose him to the fear of his neighbors. Where magic is recognized as a gift of the Maker, not the curse it has become.
It's almost too much to imagine. The Circle, the templars, they've shaped my life. I was no more than twelve when they came for me. My mother wept when they fixed the chains to my wrists, but my father was glad to see me gone. He had been afraid, ever since the fire in the barn. Not just afraid of what I could do, but afraid of me, afraid my magic was punishment for whatever petty sins he imagined the Maker sat in judgment upon.
I always knew I wouldn't submit. I could never be what they wanted from me -- compliant, obedient, guilty. But before Justice, I was alone. I never thought beyond my own escape: Where would I hide? How long before they found me?
Now, even that thought repulses me. Why should so many others live with what I will not? Why must the Circle of Magi stand? Just because it always has, just because those who read Andraste's words twisted them to mean that mages must be prisoners? Why has there never been a revolution?
"He's coming to." A voice, getting closer. Someone I know. A Grey Warden.
"What in the Maker's name happened to him?" There are two of them. This one I don't know.
"He just went crazy. His eyes were glowing… His bloody skin cracked open and it was like he was on fire inside. Just kept raving… something about injustice, a revolution. Thought I was going to have to put the blighter down like a mad dog, then he just collapsed."
"Damned mages."
I struggle to stand, to open my eyes and face them like a man, not the chewed-up pile of hurlock spew I feel like. I can see them now. It's Rolan; of course it is. The price I had to pay for the Grey Wardens' generosity in recruiting me out from under the templars' noses. He was one of them, before his Chantry was destroyed by the darkspawn and he felt the calling to join the Wardens. No one ever said a deal had been struck, but as soon as the templars stopped their protests, Rolan turned up in the Wardens, and we've fielded every assignment together since. It's all too clear the templars sent him to keep watch.
And whatever possessed me to make my deal with Justice anywhere he might witness?
As he appears, I regret that choice of words, because something stirs inside me, and I wonder if it's harder for Justice to exert his will in a body that a living consciousness still inhabits. But it's a futile question, because his thoughts are mine and he is me, and I'm no longer sure what I was even asking.
Rolan is in front of me now, and the white griffin on his chest plate blurs in my sight with the steel-grey sword-of-flames on his companion's armor, and I know with white-hot certainty that Rolan has betrayed me.
"The Wardens agreed we can't harbor an abomination," he is saying, nasal voice vibrating with smug satisfaction, and I don't need to hear more. He's brought the templars down on me, on us, and this is just what we've been waiting for.
I don't see myself when I change, only the reflection in their eyes and the sound of their screams. My arm lashes out and silverite doesn't so much break as explode in a shower of molten metal. The sword melts, running down the templar's chest, and I follow up with a wave of flames which scorch the flesh from his face, leaving only bone so hot it smolders. The trees are burning… the tent… everything around us.
Rolan is still standing, and I smell the lyrium he drank, which guarded him from the blast. But he's afraid. I see his shield jerk and know he barely resisted the urge to flee, and I have a sudden thought, "What am I?" for I've seen him face both broodmothers and abominations without fear.
And then his sword is level with my chest, and I let it come, because it is only steel and cannot hurt me, for I am not of mortal men. And when it sinks hilt-deep in my flesh with no reaction, that's when he gives up. He turns and runs, and from behind, I tear his head off at the neck, no magic, just me, whatever that is now. His blood splashes into my open mouth and it tastes like honeyed wine and the warmth spreads through me.
He hated me, and he is dead. He feared me, and he is dead. He hunted me, and he is dead.
They will all die. Every templar, every holy sister who stands in the way of our freedom will die in agony and their deaths will be our fuel. We will have justice. We will have vengeance.
And suddenly I'm alone, standing in a burning forest, with the bodies of templars and wardens at my feet. So many, and I didn't even know they were there. Didn't even know I had killed them, but the evidence is all around me. Not the aftermath of a battle as I've known it, but a bloody abattoir of rent limbs and torn and eaten flesh.
This is not justice. This is not the spirit who was my friend, my self. What has he become? What have I become? We must get out of here. There is no place for me in the Grey Wardens now.
Is there a place for me anywhere?

I liked what I saw of Fenris in the latest Dev interview showing some of the gameplay with him. A lot of the dialogue was spoken over by Mike and the interviewer, but we still got to see enough that it was pretty cool. It was particularly reassuring for me as I was not overwhelmed nor inspired by the one-liner he makes during his grand appearance that we'd previously seen. I also thought it dispelled the notion that he was "pretty", but rather was about as rugged an elf as you're going to find (absent huge scars and disfigurements).

There are many sorts of rivalry. But I imagine trying to put some sense into Anders through it could end up with a few rough moments.

Both Anders and Fenris (and Sebastian) for bi LI XD
Whereas I'm most likely just destined to be sad and celibate in DA2, though since the last gameplay vids I'll admit I've grown more curious about Fenris but I don't think I'll ever be able to romance him because of his JRPG looks.
So for me as far as any real m/m action is concerned
I'm hoping for, Sebastian, an unknown possibly NPC Dairren like romance that hopefully lasts slightly longer than Dairren did, some flirty dialog or maybe the occasional kiss from cute male npc's (think Bella and Kaithlyn from DA:O here only male) or a love golem for sale at the black emporium in that order.
If Sebastian does turn out to be another bisexual Li, I promise to write something nice about miss Hepler on these forums though It would make me positvely overjoyed if Sebastian can attempt to initiate a romantic encounter with MHawke like Isabella seems to do for FHawke at the end of the demo.

Shale was the dl for DA:O and didn't even have a romance option. So far the devs have already issued the names of the romance characters and sadly Sebastian isn't in the group but who knows for sure. Could be a secret until the game is released. I would have to agree with you on Fenris tho, I'm not all that excited about m/m with him. Anders tho would be interesting.

But you're overlooking the fact that Shale's a golem. I don't think (or hope) the world is ready for man-on-rock action. But Sebastian is conventionally attractive. I have a faint, tiny little hope he'll be an extra LI.

Can't wait for the day I get to sweep a prince off his feet... as a man(Hi Alistair ; ; ). Always been a dream of mine.
Maybe it'll be DA2 or maybe I'll have to wait for the medieval sims. Still the thought excites me!
