ALSO does anyone think Anders actually had any friends in the two games we've seen him in? Awakening he was sniping at almost everyone except the Warden and in DA2 there was... Varric and maybe Isabela?


Even in Awakening, he never let anyone close.  He just used humor to deflect people instead of DA2's surliness.  I got the definite impression that he and Oghren were friends, though.  (Yes, friends who seemed to mess with each other far more than be nice, but friends all the same.)


Why waste your time when you know you're going to be dragged back to the circle eventually?. But there is Namaya, I guess. We know how that ended. :wizard:

The question is this: Why does Anders wear bandages around his various limbs. He isn't injured. I make sure of that. But every time I take him out to play, he's got his wrists and knee all wrapped up. Old sports injuries?

Seeing as how his family is from the Anderfells, he's probably tall (except that DA2 doesn't have height sliders, so no tall guys), so I could understand the knee. Tall people have a predisposition to bad knees. But why the forearms?

Thoughts? Or do I just need to lay off the late-night cheese?


They're not for him.  They are at the ready for when Hawke needs saving.
Also, he doesn't wear a man-purse, where do you expect him to stash bandages???

Fenris...is somewhat close to a sane romance. He doesn't backstab you at least.

I feel so bad for my good guys.


I dunno how stable Fenris is, lol.  He's pretty nasty in a rivalmance. XD

Hawke: Fenris I got you a book!
Fenris: I CAN'T READ YOU CRUEL WITCH
Hawke: D:
::time passes::
Hawke: Fenris I got you a sword!
Fenris: TAKE YOUR SWORD AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS, WITCH
Hawke: I love you too, Fenris. <3

How stable Fenris is depends. If you interpret Danarius's little "the boy is quite skilled" comment in that way, I can see that relationship being... dysfunctional. Especially if you're another male human mage. That's one giant opportunity for resentment. He's one angry fellow no matter what.

Isabela is just chillaxin all day.


I don't think so. Even interpreting that way why would Fenris go to Hawke. He went to Hawke that night not the other way around. Nothing about it seemed to be in self hatred. 

As for Izzy. My characters can't stand her. (Or at best see her as just an associate). Then again most of my PC's are either asexual, want someone they really shouldn't, or head for Fen/Anders. 

...Which probably would fall under someone they really shouldn't.

I dunno. I suspect there's something unhealthy about a guy that sleeps with you once and then wears your house crest on his waist for the next three years while refusing to talk about what happened. People talk about Anders being creepy, but at least the dude is upfront.


lmao. That is kind of creepy. Alright. Fenris is defintely not sane option. 

Some random tavern girl. That's the sane option.

Fenris and Anders .. they both are not so "stable". That's why I love them though.

You see, I have this thing. Someone always has to be shorter in the relationships I like. That's why I played elves and dwarves and hooked them up with Alistair, and my one human male hooked up with Zevran. It's a sickness and like, one of the few reasons I like Fenris with [male] Hawke, and now that I've gotten attached to the idea of a taller Anders, Hawke has to be shorter to compensate. Shorter guys are like, yukidama squee fodder, which is why I was so dead set on Varric... my heart is still broken, btw. Even more broken then before. I'LL NEVER GET OVER IT.

I like Carver being taller (not by much, maybe like an inch or two) so he can feel better about himself. And then worse when his shorter, older brother gives him verbal smackdowns over how much of a dick he's being. Good times, man. Good times.


I like the girl being shorter/smaller in my relationships, both fictional and real.  That's why I had to pair up Zevran with my Brosca.  ^_^

It's also why I'm frighteningly fixated on the idea of Carver getting with an elf.  I'm a Carver/Tabris shipper.

I love Anders being a tall, rangy guy.  It's sexy.


I'm the opposite. If there had been male dwarves to romance, I'd romance them all as a girl. Never woulda romanced anyone else who am I kidding I love my gay man too much. I love tall girls and short guys. FENRIS HAD POTENTIAL BUT THEN HE HAD TO GET TALL SO WHATEVER, NO GIRLS FOR YOU. So I have to make up for this tragedy the only way I can, with delusions and denial. Tall Anders pleases me, as does giving him a shorter boyfriend lolol.

Carver should have gotten with Merrill, I'd have supported him. Maybe he'd have stopped complaining about me overshadowing him if he was busy with other things >.>

The gifts suck so badly in rivalmance.  Cause my Hawkette and him agree on everything about slavers and wanting roots (aggressive Hawke is a secret softie inside that is all GRRR ARRG to hide it and such)... so most conversations are rather nice, unless they're talking about mages.  Then it's ARG, I hate youuuuu but I love youuuuu.  lol
But the gifts... just... omg, calm down, Fenris.  It's just a gift, I'm not that evil to be meaning anything untoward!

Oh. You mean. Like, Hawke making a sane choice, not Issy making a sane choice. Got it.

Isabela IS pretty much the sanest choice. She's a positive paragon of stability compared to the other options. Her problems boil down to "kinda selfish, minor trust issues". And then you look at Anders and Merrill... oh boy.


Exactly.

She's just a mildly off woman. Boring, really. The Kaidan of Dragon Age.

It NEVER ceases to amuse me whenever I watch the Fenris and Hawke make out scenes and Hawke's bending his knees to be at level with him.

He had a bunch of pouches, but Hawke did his best to divest him of them.

Which is another reason why I tend to feel so sorry for Anders, he's gone all these years with barely a friend and I'm pretty certain even that spirit in his head doesn't like him :crying:

liked Kaidan. He was sane and awesome. Izzy...not so much to me. I don't now. I feel like she's just...something about her strikes me as fake. I like my sane characters mellow and chillaxed. Varric, Aveline, Kaidan, Bethany. Ashley (to an extent).

I think my Hawke can go 7 years without sex. Wouldn't be the first time.

I'm sure they're not exactly the same height. I just don't think either of them have ever done that, butt to butt thing and had Bodhan on a step ladder check with a straight edge.

though maybe they should have.

YOUR TEARS SUSTAIN ME. so keep crying. :D

(I like reedy mages after my tiny elf mage.)

I also secretely like to pretend that Carver and Hawke are like, a comedy duo.

A certain level of lying and fakeness is pretty necessary for a healthy life and healthy relationships with people, I would think, yes?

I don't understand what exactly is that supposed to mean. 

Fakeness being necessary? I don't know. Personally I dislike pretenders strongly. I rather have a unhealthy relationship and know where I stand than a "healthy" one (if you can call it that) with someone lying to me. Especially with them wearing a mask. Because it begins to beg the question who exactly am I in love with? The person? Or that mask? 

Edit: Then again this is all invidiual tastes. It's the same reason I can't lie to Gamlen about what happened to Leandra. I don't lie unless I'm either bored or want to screw with someone. (Or  I'm trying to peddle money/good off of them) :whistle:

I've only done half of it, but from what I've seen the Merrill rivalmance isn't so bad. You don't have to be cruel and hurt her feelings (except for the arulin'holm), she stops the blood magic, and she's still totally sweet.
