When people discovered Varric was a writer, even before DA2 was released, many started wondering what type of books he'd write. Since at the time there was a great speculation over whether he'd be romanceable and because women were fanning over his chest hair and because someone said he looked like Fabio Lanzoni, people started drawing him in book covers similar to Fabio's. You know the type.
When the game came out, the idea that he wrote smut was firmly rooted in the minds of fans and it hasn't been disloadged.

It's also amusing to think that Cassandra is a closet pervert.

If she is/if I wanted to assume that, I'd also wanna assume she is Merrill's half sister
it explains Merrill's tiny ears too.

Probably because of the title "Hard in hightown" that made people think it's erotic novel or something.

Ah, so no in-lore evidence but instead merely headcanon. Thanks.

or could be that hard in hightown 2 even harder in hightown (if you brought varric in mota) could have been such a novel, of course this was not written by varric, but another author ripping off his work

I personally think Hard in Hightown 2: Siege Harder is a joke on Die Hard 2: Die Harder, which was seen as terrible compared to the first Die Hard for a lot of people. ![]()

You hear bits and pieces of Hard in Hightown 2; it's still a cop book. Just not very poorly written one.

Wait Cassandra is a royal, my LI just changed for my ever opportunistic character.
You can't marry into royalty in this game.
First, she is a royal of Nevarra and we aren't going there.
Second, she is a distant relative and is only ever considered because the current king and his brother have no heirs.
Third, Cassandra has given up her claim to the throne.

Cole/Cassanda party banter
Cole: Hi Seeker
Cass: Who? Where? Hello is someone there?
Cole: I'm right here...
Cass: Show yourself foul demonic voice! I will not be seduced by a demon's call!
Cole: Maybe not a demon, but you sure do enjoy that smut you read when you think nobody is looking
Cass: *turns bright red*
Why is it implied that Cassandra enjoys reading dirty books?

Excepting for the fact that he has no concept of things sexual. He knows what sex is; he's seen people having sex before, but he has no concept of why they do it or why someone would want to read about it.
God, he's pretty ignorant for a 12 year old.

The only way we're going to Nevarra is via DLC. They won't have choosing the ruler of a nation as DLC content.
She was being considered. That was 20 years ago.
Again, that was 20 years ago and there are other Pentaghasts besides her.

He doesn't necessarily want to become king. There will be future installments and hopefully a life outside this installment for our PC.

She is tsundere, but no where in the definition of tsundere does it say they secretly read porn and are embarrassed about it.

It's EA and DA was never said to be a trilogy.

No it's not. And this isn't an anime, this was written by Western minds, so just because a particular character can happen to be categorized using a Japanese word from manga doesn't mean she will fall into every single anime/manga troupe of said characters.
