You silly! I mean like having a hobby. Varric wrote trashy novels, Isabela got drunk in the Hanged Man, Merrill observed other people in the alienage and tried to fix her mirror. Anders healed people and then worked on his manifesto, and Fenris brooded in his broken down mansion. Aveline lusted after Donnic, lol. Hmm, in Origins all the companions just hung around the campfire, but even they had their passions. Morrigan liked her jewelry, Leliana liked her clothes and schmooples, Alistair mentioned something about cooking in his banter with Leliana. Someone liked paintings, wasn't that Sten? Anyway, they all had something to keep their mind on. I wonder what Cullen's willbe, besides the INQUISITION and his soldiers. And the Inquisitor. 
Alistair had another hobby. 
Wynne: Why do you occasionally refer to Alistair as a "little pike-twirler?"
Oghren: Why? Has the little pike-twirler taken offence?
Wynne: It's just a curious description.
Oghren: Curious? (Snorts) Bah, it's entirely true. What, you haven't seen him twirling his pike? Goes at it when he thinks no one's watching. Knocks about in the trees like there's no tomorrow. Caught him just the other day. Blushed all the way down to his navel, then couldn't find his shirt. I swear he's going to hurt himself one of these days, the way he works that thing.
Wynne: I don't want to hear this anymore, do I?
Oghren: I keep telling him, pikes are for sticking things at long range, aye? Horses and such. Not for twirling like a sissy-girl.
Wynne: Wait, you're talking about an actual pike? Like a spear?
Oghren: Obviously. What else would I be talking about?
Wynne: I can't imagine.
