Herr Uhl, you even LOOK sassy! Strawberry blonde! You're so young looking though *grin*

Edit: Cripes, what a wonderful top-of-the-page post!  Ok, I've used my dwarf kisses for the day as well.   Charsen's saddest Zev ever.

Ramante, you are NOT how I pictured you at all. You actually look a lot like my best friend from junior high (who is still drop dead gorgeous -- some women just keep it), glasses and all.

Do I want to know how you thought I looked like? xD
All I can say is; right back at you.

@MG, you are terrible you know that.


I know. I am terrible and it makes me sad. May I rest my head in your bosom? I wish to cry.

I am going to walk away now. Calmly. Coolly. This is to save you the pain of having your brain forcibly removed through your ears.

Someone said cat pictures are welcome? You're going to regret that.

*ahem* *Commences Lurker Thread Hijacking Module*



I believe the moment I decided to romance Zevran was....well, one of the first few battles after I got him. As luck would have it, I was playing a male warden on his way towards a slow-burn 'friendship-->romance' route of sorts with Morrigan, so Alistair was out of the question, although I wasn't expecting to do the Zevran romance until my third run-through or so.



Then in that battle---a very standard 'miniquests! put your new party members to the test!' thing---Zevran did what his default tactics does and ran to obliterate a nearly dead genlock that happened to be running toward squishy mage PC, whereas Alistair and Leliana were being clobbered to death by the remaining hurlocks he left behind. (The genlock was really nearly dead----a staff projectile could finish him off.) When the battle ended, the proximity between PC and Zevran caused the engine to make them look at each other....you know, in the way that would've cued romantic music and a "Zevran...." "Warden...." script, were it a movie. While Leliana was clutching her torn jugular and Alistair was coughing up blood in the background.



I lol'd. PC was weirdly flattered. I'm sure you have all seen this kind of awesome coincidences, too. And after lol'ing even more in the camp after the first few conversations (I inadvertently picked 'so what do you fancy', ah, the wonders of avoiding spoilers), never really looked back to the other romance options except to see everything the game has to offer. He really is one of the very few companions who really worry about the stress the Warden's under, and it makes me sad that much of the internet and even the in-game achievement labels him as something of a shallow douche. Imagine my squee when I happened to land upon this thread, especially since I gave up on forums long ago.



So thank you, all, for being a fanperson enabler. It was awesome reading...er, skimming...through this thread, all 800-something pages of it. (I have no life, no.)



And now I'll go back to lurking and leave you to the highly entertaining picture posts. Zev's rather worth picture-posting, isn't he?



P.S. Irving/Greagoir/Wynne OT3, dangit.

Here's the boots one from the photoshoot with makeup caked on my face. Yay. You can't easily tell from the pic, but I was leaning waaaay back because it was on top of a mountain and she had me standing on a steep slope in the clearing, lol. I climbed back down the mountain in them, too, and then went to I-hop for caffeine.

...Eherm....soo.....eum.....you said you like Loghain huh?

@ Herr. Somehow I always knew you looked like that...not that I am spying on you or anything *closes curtains*

Same here.

@webbedfeet, you are in the right place.. not at the right time obviously. Zevran is nowhere to be found right now. xD

@MG, when she was that young she was really cute.. but now, terror. Just terror, plants curtains, all dead!

Zevran brings all the flirts to the yard. He is like our high priest of flirtitiems.

/wave at webbedfeet! Welcome. You're very brave poking your head in at picture time.



Zevran's romance really is quite a surprise. His creator liked him a lot, though. I think he deliberately made Zevran a character you have to get to know rather than have him be all likable up front.

I find it peculiar that he never posted his pic before, despite all of your pretties doing it.
And that he finally did it when I posted mine.

Hmmm. Another mystery to solve.

I did not have it at the time. All I had was a picture of me puking green stuff out of my nose.

This is true.  I am horrified that I actually let my first warden kill him.  I need to atone for my sins.

*waves*

Zev's default tactics are indeed very cute, what with the way he goes running to help the Warden. And LOL about the music... he totally stares at the Warden like you're suggesting, though. Sabriana has an awesome picture that she posts sometimes of her Warden and Zev standing on a pile of corpses staring at each other like that.

And his achievement title made me sad too. lol.

But as you said, he does notice the stress the Warden is under, and seems to be the only companion that doesn't really burden them. (And of course, he also tries to cheer them up with the hilarious poetry reading. Silly Zev.)

Hmm, the generalization of this thread as a good-looking bunch still stands!



*waves to webbedfeet* Welcome! Loved the anecdote! I think a lot of us have squee'd over Zevran's staring and/or protectiveness at least once. I even came into the game knowing I wanted to try to romance the elf, and I was *still* surprised (pleasantly!) by the depth of his character.

I'm bored so some more Zevran screenies from me (Landsmeet).

First: I just know Logahin is thinking 'something about her isn't right.'
I think it is really strange no one screams 'hey, look a blood mage!'

And something we like about Zevran (yes, I've made my own, though the timing was a little off):
