How did you know I primarily roll the Keeper?
But anyway, you want to go grab a drink at the tavern? That's what friends do, right?
Of course, I shall tell you the tale of when I single handedly held off a group of darkspawn for two days. In the Deep Roads.
I shouldn't have posted in the Tethraghast thread, but being called "a dude with weird sexual fantaisies" about Cass kinda hit a sensitive spot. Blergh.
Anyway, I need something for cheering me up, so let's have a cosplay pic. I wish I was pretty enough to cosplay as Cass.
The irony of that post tho lol

"A dude with weird sexual fantasies about Cass"?
wat
@that pic, I considered going to Megacon yesterday to meet the guests, but I couldn't find any places to stay (and it's a 3-hour drive to the convention center form my house, so f*** that). It makes me sad too, because Karen Gillan ( 
) was there, and Stan "Motherf***ing" Lee was there too. I need more reasons to wear my leather Alex Mercer jacket.
And now I'm curious and have to go there.
What have you done.
I tried to explain once more why Tethragast was OOC. But I think I was polite enough. Except maybe for the last part.

Link? I want to see the train of logic that allows for "Tethraghast is OOC" --> "Weird sexual fantasies".
Cassandra: So, about Bianca...
Varric: What, we're pals now? Are we going to gossip about each other's love lives? (fake whispering) Did you hear that, boss? Don't worry, I'll tell you everything she says.
Everyone knows Varric is just pure bro.

Eh, they have their own thread, they don't bring it here(well, you know, exept for one person 
), works for me.
It's all down to interpretation, I suppose. You see antagonism, we see- well. Varric kind of being a dick, but there still being the possibility of their becoming friends. It's not that far a leap, and it certainly wouldn't be the first time a romance was based on disliking someone, learning that they're not entirely assholes, becoming friends, and then possibly indulging in a relationship.
Thank you though, for presenting your opinions with points that illustrate your feelings on it, rather than dismissing us all as mad.
How could Varric and Cassandra's interaction (on Varric's end, anyway) be seen as anything OTHER than antagonism?
And, I know I've said this before, but people who dislike each other (or at least one disliking the other) don't typically end up being together. If that were ever the case, they wouldn't dislike each other to begin with, with one party throwing out both passive-aggressive and direct insults to the other. I cannot stress how much I detest the "opposites attract" mentality. People aren't magnets, and that sh** doesn't happen in reality. People might not be the best of friends when they hook up, but never does one go out of their way to antagonize the other.
Even ignoring the whole clash of personality there, Varric is still in love with Bianca, and outright says "I'm not into humans". You'd think that one of those two statements alone would kind of shoot the whole idea down, but no, people are really, REALLY stubborn on insisting something that will never happen and has no basis in the narrative.

People really don't like it when others point out flaws in their OTP/Ship. Logic & Common sense be damned 
I've found that out the hard way. 
Just gotta accept that others are free to ship hard & ship free...

Oh, it works for me as well. As long as they don't ****** on my head and tell me it's only rain.
Nevermind, I saw the post in question. What really boggles my mind is this:

Well, honestly I can see that kind of relationship working in the end...but after a long, long time, and only if the two people eventually find a way to be on a level playing field. Like having common experiences, something like that. Except there is nothing like this between Cass and Varric.
Even if in some bizarro universe where Varric and Cassandra become friends, there's still his thing with Bianca and his lack of attraction to humans to work through. I still haven't seen any explanations for these.

Being stranded on the island could probably help, heh.

If she doesn't kill him for being an annoyance
Plus, if he gets over Bianca, I say he is harbouring some deep feelings for Hawke.
Or if Bianca's husband has an "accident"
If she doesn't kill him for being an annoyance
After he finds some way to pin the blame on her for dragging him to an island.

I see them being friends in the future, but given their banter that's as far as that's gonna go

Don't tell that to the people making the pairing, they don't like to listen to reason.

Oh, in their case that probably wouldn't help either. I was more talking about general "opposites" situation.
Also, I think Cassandra approaches the situation the wrong way. Instead of trying to mend the relationship, she should just strike back(not literally 
). Having some kind of back and forth exchange could potentially work better.
But then again, that would just give shippers more ammunition.

Because when it comes to romance and showing that two people like each other, the only stronger bit of evidence other than one flinging insults at the other, is both of them flinging insults at each other.
I mean, it works all the time in real life. Just walk up to a man or woman and start s**t talking them, they'll fall head over heels for you.

Well she does strikes back at least once, when he asks her about returning to Nevarra. For which I'm grateful apparently no Tethragast shipper play the french version of the game, because instead of "fungus" Cass compares Varric to "genital herpes". Surely that would become the irrefutable proof Cass wants Vava to screw her! 
But to be fair, the french translation also makes the flirt option between the Inquisitor and Cass during the discussion after Hawke's reveal like the guy simply confesses his love for her, when it isn't.

Now you're getting it! 
That's pretty much what happened with Mirandra/Jack situation. Even BW couldn't resist.

Or says something about Bianca.

Yeah. You could tell Jack wanted to sleep with Miranda, the way Jack threatened to kill Miranda in ME2.
