Ouch, I'm making a second Twitter account... The first one had my nearly full name on it. Is this really a bad thing? A friend of mine just called me a few minutes ago and told me that this is indeed bad...
kids...? Puppies first!
Yes, puppies!! 
And baby dragons too.
I am pretty sure you edit your info on twitter? I think mine had my full name as well and I changed it to.........a third of my name.
The kittie is cute but I don't know what it meeeanns.
It's like an "Oh my... *puts hand to mouth*" thing.
I'd hardly call it a bad thing. It just depends who you have as friends on there and what you're doing with Twitter. In and of itself, Twitter isn't bad. I have my name on mine.
Nah, I don't really add my friends on Twitter. The one with my name just follow some organization whose cause I support 
+ BW team haha. I'm a lurker but never really post.
I think little baby Cullen's running around Skyhold is equally adorable as puppies/kittens.
I kind of cherish this idea:
- Mage Trevelyan: 2, a boy (non mage) and a girl (mage).
- Archer Lavellan: twin girls
Somehow I can picture better Cullen with a daughter rather than Cullen with a son.
@ Cyrenne: I did the exact same thing with Vivienne, with leaving her behind. I did wish there were less companions, at times. I would have been super happy with half the companions, but double the content.
@ Sephirona: I didn't realize it either until I started re-playing DA:2, for nostalgia, after finishing my first Da:I play through. And I agree, it was great talking to your companions, whenever, like in DA:O. It just upped the immersion factor and the sense of going on a journey with people. I will never forget Zevran reciting my Warden sex poetry in some ancient tomb, like, 5 seconds after a bunch of spiders almost killed the group.
@ Lolalei: Agree so much. Love the summation of DA:O and DA2— if I could like your post x1000, I would.
Yes, puppies!!

Well, baby dragon

To be honest, I haven't thought this far ahead. I always imagined them having far too much sex and doing far too much stabbing of bad people for kids to enter the picture. Is there some form of birth control in Thedas? because I just realised with all that sex, kids would soon follow.

LOVE this. I have never accepted a head-canon so fast. Could also totally see Cullen being precious with a baby girl, but kind of fumbling with a son.

Hehe I just got this kind of discussion with my partner not so long ago so I'm still in the mood to imagine
Hmm well, honestly with my Lady Mage Trevelyan it's not a good idea to have kids. I mean, they both live in a world where demons & other danger lurks in every corner and sorry to say this but they both have too many responsabilities at the moments. Whatever happen, it will be hard for the Quizzy to take a few months break, considering the state of the world... And if she's a mage, whatever happen it'll really be complicated.
Even BW doesn't put to words what will happen after the Epilogue. We only know that everyone keep on together for a little while longer. But even Cullen understands that the Inquisition won't last. And then? Well...
Still, from all the LIs in DA:I Cullen is the only one that I can safely headcannon him & quizzy to actually get married & build a life together. When we can ask him things like licking lamp post in winter, his answer was about marriage.

Yeah. I'm of a mind. It's not that I hate kids, I have two of them, but my head canon is they're waiting for and working on the next crisis to avert.
Not to say for lack of trying on the desk, against the wall, etc...
That being said, I recall a fic that had (Cautherien, in this case) going to the herbalist and that's been my canon ever since.
What does that even mean? "For now". Is she suggesting that it'll be answered in the future? Could that even be a hint of our Warden's popping up in some way, shape, or form in future DLC/games/whatever?
Urgh, I had ambiguous sh*t like that.
*Edit* scrap that, I asked her if it was something that was going to be answered in the future or whatever and she said:
"@AbilityDrain No. It was written as a one off ambient & could remain so. I meant only to explain intent without setting the future in stone."

I can see one possibility: non-romanced Cullen x non-romance Amell/Surana in DLC. Or anything that closed the chapter. Amell/Surana, if alive, must be nearing her Calling. Maybe one DLC about The Warden's Calling? And if proper world state allow, we will get to meet her & we might get to help Cullen to talk to her finally? About his regret of what he told her or even whatever it is. Then this will end up like Before Sunset/Before Sunrise.
Just a passing mention or war table banter. I mean, many people headcannon Cullen x Amell/Surana pairing right?
EDIT: Nah forget about this, too complicated, violating too much headcannons.

I just read that! Talk about keeping us on a tight leash of speculation and anticipation!

Oh, I don't hate kids either but yeah, I don't know if I like the idea of bringing kids into a partnership where it is reasonable to assume that both parents could die at any time. Maybe if they settled down in a little wooded area with a cottage or...something, but not while they are still part of all the killing and such.

I think it's like anything on the internet. If there are things on your current account you may not want future employers or congressional constituents finding easily... I'd make a separate account that identifies you.
Sadly, you also have a case of being a female gamer on the internet... being identifiable can have some safety concerns as well. :/
For me... ain't no WAY I'd put my real identify in my fan stuff.

Weirdly, I can imagine this very well. The Inquisition won't last forever. Or at least, it'll be a good idea to put down the banner once stability had returned. Cullen's a committed person, I can't imagine him not wanting to stay with her until the very end.
Somehow I can picture better Cullen with a daughter rather than Cullen with a son.
I think a son would be super adorable. A little baby boy with his exact hair style ha! So cute
Even more adorable if the kid had a necklace with the lucky coin on it

Just quoting Lola's post to point out the edit that folks might not have seen. I think 140 characters is just not enough for the unfortunate tapdance Brianne has to accomplish with the hot button that is Amell/Surana.

Yeah, I'm using my second account starting now for all BW stuffs & fun stuffs. I don't have problems with future employee knows that I'm supporting noteworthy causes but well, being a gamer might not be the best things to announce to them 
Thanks everyone
How many of you think that there would kids for your romanced Cullen at the end of the story? I'd like to head canon that's where my story goes.
My IQ and Cullen would totally have a pack of ramen-haired kids and drooly mabaris running all over Skyhold and driving the staff crazy, a veritable cream cheese commercial white picket fence fairy tale happy ending. If BioWare doesn't, like, make me sacrifice Cullen to save my hero in the next game or something, of course. Which they probably will.
But I agree with Lola that the post-game fate of Inquisitor and their LI should be left open-ended for each fan to do what they will with, and not some hard fact spelled out as overruling canon. I'm actually pretty happy with where they left Hawke's romances - enough validation to know that they're still together, but vague on details enough that you can headcanon anything and not be contradicted by the game. I can tell myself my rogue Hawke had a frowny ginger baby with Sebastian, or my mage Hawke is living in the mountains with Fenris and Orana, and they're both valid scenarios that DAI doesn't forbid. The romance with Alistair... sigh I can't even decide if I should leave my Warden dead as she should be or ressurrect her as his mistress for possible future implications... but I guess it's fitting that king Alistair's relationship with the Warden was also left vague enough that I could headcanon anything into it and not be roadblocked either.
SO! Yes, definitely babies and puppies for me, but preferably only in my headcanon, so everyone can get their own desired ending too.

Okay, red-brown hair or blond?
I always want to know why Cullen's hair change colour & texture. It's even a joke among the dev to call him Curly.

Hm, my headcanon doesn't include children. Might be my hate for cliched children = romance conclusion and happily ever afters. Yeah, Rowling I'm looking at you...and many other fictions >.>
Although, I'd have to agree on Cullen with daughters instead of sons.

I have totally thought about this. I used to have a boyfriend that had quite curly hair but he used to run his hands through it all the time so it would break up the curls and turn them into waves. This isn't something we see Cullen doing but I have head-cannoned it. 
Question, though, for anyone... Does anyone feel less close to the companions than the other Dragon Age games? I love the advisors and Cullen, obviously, but the actual followers... Meh? In DA2, I really felt like Hawke and the companions formed a close family-like unit. I loved and cared about everyone; the personal quests felt really meaningful, also. Same for Origins. By the time you come around to the end game, the companion goodbyes are just KILLER. It feels like you've formed this unit, gone through so much, and now it's the great, epic finale together, with all your bros by your side.
In contrast, I didn't feel like that at all in DA:I. When all the characters were calling me their BFF at the end, I was like...yeah, really? That seems premature, I don't even know you that much. The personal quests, too, were just so short. And I felt the companion interactions were a lot more shallow than the other games.
Don't get me wrong: I still enjoyed the game. But I miss feeling like I'm adventuring with my friends. The Inquisition just felt like a random group of people to me. I also had the banter bug, though, so maybe that contributed to it? I had like 15-20 banters over the course of an entire 80+ hour game. Just wanted to get that off my chest. It's been bothering me now that I'm going back to replay DA2.
Yeah, I completely feel the same way. As much as people like to complain about DA2's story and gameplay, I dare anyone to say that the companions weren't the real heart and soul of the game and which makes it still fun to go back and replay.
I'll put the the rest of this under a spoiler tag, as it's a little TL:DR.
I dunno, I liked the groups in Inquisition and Origins, but I felt both are missing that spark that DA2 had that made their interactions so memorable?
Retour en haut
