About DA:Awakening:
We basically know 2 things: no, Zevran (and also other LI from Origins) will not be there as companions, that means no " active" romance for PC; and yes, the romance from Origins will be acknowledged via some kind of in-story reference (I guess this will be different for each of them).
+ there is no new romance option for PC (and that's imo VERY good sign).
I also think that each LI will be handled differently. I suppose there is no way to kill off Alistair and Morrigan as I suspect them to play role in DA2 continuity. Though I can imagine Leliana's death very easily and being completely in her character (not that I wish that, I romanced her and liked it, lol). Zevran's death is not that likely since he is good at surviving (I agree on that with person who wrote it earlier), so my personal guess is that he will be off on his own mission while the PC is on theirs or he will just wait somewhere for PC to finish their job (less likely). Breakup is imo very OOC option how to solve this.
In some other topic (forgive me I don't include the link, I'm lazy as*) Mr.Gaider wrote that it wouldn't be very good idea to develop the Origins romance stories on small expansion space. Like what would you write? "I love you." "I love you too." End. I would rather wait for some plot in this story line :3 And I have faith that it will come in DA2 (Bioware, get budget for that!!).
Considering the wast set of epilogues it's not possible to include all of them as starting point for expansion. This happened before. Some discontinuity is to be expected, that's for sure. But look how they handled e.g. expansion for BGII (I am playing it right now) Viconia loves the PC again, woot! Ehm ... my point is that there has to be a story to tell. She basically broke up with PC in the original game and their expansion romance is about how to fix it and make work.
