I try to talk him down like a crazy person. "No, please not the black coat. If only you'd move from the balcony and into the bedroom you wouldn't be like this!"
I'm the same. All my Hawkes end up with the same face and basically the same personality. I don't mean to do it, but it just keeps happening. And I talk to the screen ALL THE TIME.

I think it's a little easier to romance him subsequent times only because I know what's coming. I find myself talking back to him a lot. "LIAR!" and other nutty stuff.
Really? I find it almost worse knowing what's coming. Especially in Act 2 right after his romance kicks in. There's a period of about five or six quests there where everything is WONDERFUL. Hawke and Anders are in LOVE, Aveline's doing her flailing, everything's adorable...
Then Leandra dies, the Arishok goes crazy, and Meredith takes over. Great <_< I just get such a feeling of impending doom now that I know what happens.

Same here, I've managed one playthrough romancing Fenris, the rest is all about the Anders luvvin.shiba5 wrote...

Actually my next 2 Hawkes are gonna be lesbians for sure. I already did Garrett and Branden for Anders and Fenris, next up are Selene and Phaedra for Izzy and Merrill.
The only straight one is gonna be #5, Daphne for Sebastian. IF I ever do a 5th playthrough, which isn't terribly likely.
All my Hawkes are the same. They are all ****s for Anders. As soon as they enter the clinic they just lose it.
Hawke enters the clinic thinking "Right, to business. Deal with Grey Warden, Get Maps. Profit"
Anders: I have made this place a sanctum of healing and salvation..."
Hawke:
If my husband is anywhere nearby, I make sure I squee everytime Ander's is onscreen. He goes
It's fun.

I had to concieve of an entirely different Hawke so I can romance Fenris. Anna's terrified of falling down Merrill's and Anders' path. So, Carver's going to become a Templar and she'll rely on Fenris' distrust of magic to be her Jiminy Cricket.
The ONLY WAY I could stay away.
I apparently fail hard at romancing anyone other than Anders; I can't even conceive of a different Hawke. Sure for Shep I have my canon Shep and haven't completed any other Shep's PTs, but I do have Adele and Jamie Shepard, and they are fully-fledged characters. I also had two other Wardens worked out, who I didn't play simply because DA:O's combat is like trying to slice your wrists with a plastic spork.
But I literally cannot think of another Hawke to play besides my canon. Natale *is* Hawke to me, in every way. She and Anders have eaten my brains.

Heh I like having each Hawke romance a different character. It would just feel wrong to have different Hawke romancing another one's LI anyway.
Well, actually I did manage a Fenris rivalmance once. I really want to try the others but I don't know if I can resist Anders for another whole playthrough. If I don't romance him, he'll be lying awake nights aching for me ok?

You feel the same as me. Shepard and the Warden I had multiple characters but Hawke is hard for me to play anything other than my canon.

But then again I hate the Chantry's ideologies and their hypocrisies with blood magic and using lyrium to control templars.
I cheer him on too, but he is so broody by Act 3 - he needs a kick in the pants. If only they'd put PDA in the game. *weeps

This time around, however, I know what's going to happen and I've had time to come to terms with it. So when it gets to the more depressing parts its waaaay less stressful or sad than it was the first time.

I think that only happens if you actually flirt with him in act 1<_<
Fenris's friendromance is incredibly sweet, definitely worth doing. I'm curious about the girls' ones too, they should be interesting.

It IS fun. I made an entire run to friendmance Seb just because hubby hates him. Naturally, I was forced to take him on every single mission the entire game.shiba5 wrote...

sad, sad Nate/Warden comic
Aimo kills me. In a good way.
* also dies *
Maybe Sigrun can console him?
And look, I'm on topic, here's some Anders with (pants), I mean pants, also from the wonderful aimo. I needed cheering up after the previous one.

Mine played through the game 3x. Whenever he was in the clinic, I would helpfully suggest he "hit that". He really hated when I would lurk behind him while he was playing.

GODDAMNIT. My boyfriend plays more Blizzard games than BioWare. Not that I don't also love Blizz's games, but he prefers to watch me play BioWare games rather than play them himself. Which means I can't torment him. It just gets really awkward whenever Anders turns up, because he and my bf look so similar.

I thought that even if you don't flirt with him in act 1 and you initiate the romance in act 2 during Questioning Beliefs he still says that line?
Is Fenris's friendmance a lot different from the rivalmance? I liked Fen's rivalmance...just not sure if I want to do him again...

Hehe, yours too? He looks eerily similar to my husband. My mother-in-law wants to pimp him out to Cons.
We played WoW for 6 years. Finally kicked that bad habit.

We're currently taking alts all the way from level 1 to end-game with about twenty of our other friends. Currently sitting at level 55 or so, though I'm a few levels behind thanks to Pokemon and DA2.
And if I tried to pimp Gabe out, I think he'd just tickle me until I shrieked for mercy. He says that BioWare romances are like the equivalent of trashy romance novels for me

My husband plays. He claims to think Anders is a jerk, but I think I'm slowly wearing him down. His first Hawke told him to leave after the Chantry. His latest Hawke not only told Anders to stay, but he then had Anders in his team through the whole end of the game.
Oh, and best of all, he loves this thread. Granted, he only experiences its glory through me. But even reflected Anders thread glory is a wonderous thing to behold.

My husband growled when I suggested we get him some feathered pauldrons. I guess that's out.
He's a bit jealous of my trashy game romance.
