HOLY ****!!!  There's a call out to the Cullen fans! Bwahahaha!

Jessica Merizan asks each panelist to name their favorite minor character, and the Tor books editor, Stacy Hill, says:

"I am going to have to go with Cullen, I think. In Origins he’s so freaked by what happens to him. So freaked out. And then you have him in Dragon Age 2 and he’s sitting there actually thinking it through and trying to step back from his experience. And thinking, “You know what? This is actually crazy, and I’m going to be the reasonable guy. I’m going to try and walk that middle road and understand that not all mages are bad and evil and dangerous and terrible. And that there are good people out there, too. So, we have to be moderate as templars.” I like that he’s a minor character who reflects a lot of what’s going on, a lot of the bigger issues in the world, who really changes over the course of two games without having a huge part."

Jessica responds, "He’s got a really fun fandom, too. A lot of passionate fans in the Bioware community. (a panelist in the background says, [finally!]) Yes, yes."

DA: Thedas Unlocked panel, 31:10

The finally part, I think that was Darrah--not sure, but think. And did he say "finally", or "funny"? It's hard to pick up really. I mean, over the smattering of what sounds to be a gaggle of derisive, cackling brujas in the background.

Also note that when Stacy Hill says "over 2 games", there's this minute halting thing her voice does when she says "2".....

LOL I noticed that with Stacy Hill as well... but then, she's with Tor books, so would she really know if he's in DA3? (or could be show up in Masked Empire...? )  I dunno. Could be something. Could be the sort of halting way she seemed to speak.


And, indeed, there was quite a bit of cackling at that. Oh well!  I totally couldn't catch what they said in the background. Was it "finally!" as in, "finally someone is being fun and/or positive about Cullen"? Or, "finally there are passionate BW fans! har har har"?

The "finally" part actually sounded genuine to me. But w/out a visual of Merizan's face when she said "fun fanbase" part, I can't tell if the "finally" was a quick ..."easy now", or what.

And yeah, Stacy did have a bit of the halting thing in general. But this time there was a slight pause then the halting. It may just have been a general uncertainty abt...stuff.

Idk. *snortgiggle* I'll stop being obsessive now. Lol.

Of course, the cackling may not have been derisive. *eyeroll* Sounded that way to me. Coulda been one of our own laughing at ourselves.

Cuz what's really funny is that others take us Far more srsly, than even we do ourselves. It's called having fun w/it. Well, until someone derisively cackles one too many times.

Then it becomes West Side Story.


Ah, well. Whatever.

edit: listening again--last time I swear!--I Think Merizan was being genuine, too.

LOL Yeah... that elusive line between laughing with us or at us.  Oh well. We are fun. And awesome.

[SamaraDraven]

Thanks for the share, R2! Listening to it now. =D

[rapscallioness]

We are fun and awesome! And I have excellent taste, so you can take my word for it.

Honestly, tho, regardless if it was cackling, or not--I was glad to hear so many female voices in the room.

So, with us, or against us--I'm still glad you're here, Ladies!

Salut!

[SamaraDraven]

Awww! Rap, that makes me feel positively warm and squishy inside! =P

edit: I feel I need a glass of wine or something to toast with! haha!

Hear hear!

Here's to us! (Cullen raises his glass, too, but feels conflicted about it...)

[SamaraDraven]

haha! I hear you there, Rapscallioness! In a few hours, I'll be having a couple of glasses of something too!

Cullen's conflicted about everything, R2. He's Mr. Conflicted. =D

[rapscallioness]

Lol! Cullen looks like he's abt to do karaoke.

A rendition of, "I Will Survive"

.."At first I was afraid. I was petrified..":lol:

Anywho, I've got to go for now. Mundane reality yet again nips at my heels.

LOL You've got to stop giving me such good ideas!

[rapscallioness]

It's all abt follow thru. Good ideas are cheap.

But bad ideas have a tendency to be very expensive...
