Agree. And, I think that all naturally translates into romantic angst as well, since how can you be with someone who's so conflicted and not having it affect your relationship.LolaLei wrote...

I see it being the angst we all imagine, of figuring who he is and where he fits in the world after DA2. He's a big ball of angst just waiting to happen.LolaLei wrote...
...What if that "angst" is based on his future? Like, he'll never end up happy with someone (like the protagonist.)
Yeah, that counts for angst. Potentially I think he could have the most emotional storyline for a companion yet.
So, I think you get some insta-angst there as well. Of course everything I can think of, though, sounds like "the ‘oh, you musn’t love me’ man pain thing."
What if it's PTSD related instead? Or because he's never had a relationship before so he doesn't expect anyone to actually show interest in him.

In my mind, he's not oblivious to female interest. So I guess it'd be more PTSD. It does weird things to people, not always the effects you'd expect. Some have uncontrolable rage, some cry, some are terrified of seemingly unrelated things. It's strange. That's been my experience anyway.

See, In my mind he is. Not because he's oblivious of people finding him attractive, but simply because he's had no time to notice and since he's been so busy *not* catching blood mages, he's never stood still long enough to be propositioned... plus he's not the most approachable chap around lol. So, he's thinking "Well I'm 30-something now, this mage/templar war isn't gonna get better any time soon and my duty is first and foremost to solve this situation, so I can safely assume I'm likely to be single for a long time." - So when the protagonist does start showing interest (even if he's equally as interested in her) he'll be kinda surprised, thus the stuttering and shy awkwardness comes out.

I could also see that. But again, that's a little of the don't love me, I'll hurt you thing. But maybe that's inevitable with Cullen. Until he gets his sh!t together I doubt he'd think he'd be good for anyone. I mean... he's grappling with some subset of the following:LolaLei wrote...

- PTSD
-possibly no job
-possibly on the Order's sh!t list for insubordination
- if not templar, then lyrium issues
-conditioned to avoid relationships because he needs rare, special permission for them
-definitely conditioned to not fall in love with mages... and we see how well that's worked out in the past...
-if templar, conflicted about which side to choose after the Templar Order separation
Boy's got some issues! Pobrecito. Gah, it just makes me want to rush in and fix them all!!

Poor thing. I can't even begin to imagine the kind of mental stress he's under. I think maybe, in a weird way he'd be kinda grateful to get out of the Order for a bit and travel around with the protagonist 'n' co... gives him a chance to reassess his life and current situation.

After being in the middle of the whole 9/11 thing everything is PTSD to me. LOL For some reason I automatically assume that they must've had some kind of trauma. But sometimes a simplest answer is the right one. I need to remember that.
