Loving all the disapproval content in this game so far! Offend all the companions!!
I double-dare you to rock-bottom disapproval with Cassandra! Her crisis scene is seriously her most powerful character moment in the game right there, and no one ever gets to see it!

You mean the
Awesome scene, right? But it's Cass so of course it's awesome.
Yeah, when I played the Cullen romance with my Elidri, she was definitely the dominant one in dialogue.
More like dominant body language. But hey different strokes for different folks 
I heard though not sure where now, that he knew Hawke or Bethany was a mage but as a favour to the Viscount (who requested they be left alone) Meredith had them do nothing about it.
I could be mistaken, but that sounds like headcanon. To the best of my knowledge, Dumar never interferes with Meredith's business. he's scared sh!tless of her as it is. What Meredith does hint at towards the end (and only to a mage Hawke who is overly antagonistic towards her and the Templars at large) is that she is perfectly aware of what Hawke is, and their station as Champion of the city is the only thing that keep her from arresting Hawke as an apostate. A Templar-friendly mage Hawke gets a different conversation, where Meredith hints that she lets Hawke skirt the rules because she acknowledges all the services Hawke has done for the Order.
Personally, I don't see Cullen as being "naughty" per say... I just see him finally being comfortable with the Quizzy enough that he loses the shyness & let's down his guard to actually say and act how he feels without the threat of ridicule or rejection. He's now confident in knowing she'll enjoy or like what she hears because she's totally into him. I think a lot of people are like that.
Being an introvert myself, that's exactly how I feel.
This is why I sympathize so much with the Commander. It's like staring into a mirror, acknowledging all the faults.
I'm unable to act naturally and show my true feelings for someone until I become used to them.
Spontaneity only surfaces after trust's been established.
Most people just lose their patience, though, and think I'm cold, insensitive, snobbish or arrogant.
And then, I torture myself, trying to find a way to show them how I truly feel.
But it's difficult. The natural reaction of an introvert is: Think first, act later.
People think introverts do this on purpose, but it's out of their hands.
No wonder Cullen is always apologising for his stuck-in-the-mud, shy behaviour. He's aware of this peculiarity in himself, but can't change who he is.
Hee, that sounds adorable! If you ever find it again, do post the link, I'd love to read that.

Yeah, by Act 3, Meredith fully acknowledges that she knows you're a mage. The "favor" thing wiccame is remembering could be what Cullen says when he takes Bethany to the Circle, that they let the family off for harboring her as an act of goodwill. But of course, that's not for mage!Hawke and that's after Act 1. During Act 1, I think the "rumors" comment is about it, since they had to cut a whole plot where the templars knew about mage Hawke.

Oh hang on. Actually I think I am thinking of when Cullen took Bethany away, he said something about not prosecuting the family for harbouring an apostate as a favour to the Viscount or the city. Sorry.
Edit R2 beat me too it while I was typing.

Yeah, Dumar seemed to have no idea that Hawke was a mage whatsoever, because he seemed like the kind of guy who'd have handed them over in a second if he thought it'd get him a pat on the head from Meredith.
Meredith's line to a Mage Hawke at the end of Act 2 suggest that aside from except for noting that their name tended to crop up a lot in reports, the Templars were either not aware (or had no definitive proof) of them being an apostate until Hawke accidentally outed themselves by using magic in front of her. And if Carver is a Templar, she implies that he's actively tried to keep the Templars unaware of him even having a sibling.
Thank you! If I could shower you in Likes for taking the time to look for it, I would!

LOL Naw, no need. It's in my ff.n faves! Took me two seconds... Cullen archiving superpower notwithstanding. 
She's certainly a Thedosian Lore Mistress!I just pictured you like Gandalf, hunched over ancient text and trying to research by candle light.
Oh you sweet summer child...that's not what I meant by salty, dear.The funny thing is he actually looks older in Origins! Frostbite has been kind to our Cully-Wully. Lucky man to be aging so well!
When people mention the after credits scene being shocking in this thread, it is shocking in reguard to Cullen's romance, or just shocking in general(like main story stuff). I am not at the end yet, and am really hoping the Cullen romance ends nicely, like a "happily ever after" sort of ending Or at least him and the Inquisitor don't like get killed or anything, because I think I will cry, lol.

Shocking in regards to the main story. Cullen's romance ends on a happy note, lol.
Spoiler Solas art!
Spoiler
Their facial expressions and body language are so good!

Yeah if you don't mind the slight romance spoiler, Cullen's romance ends on a very happily ever after note. No one dies, or burns down a Chantry, or is forced to have sex with the shady witch. 
Isn't it nice to get a happy ending for a change? Of course DLC could change everything, and we might be forced to kill Cullen in the next game or something, but at least for now we got a good send off.
Stay far far away from ending spoilers, though, as the last leg of the game is best experienced if you go unspoiled. It's really worth saving the final twists to see for yourself.

I have friends who are introverts who feel EXACTLY like this. I am loud and obnoxious as hell, a product of my own insecurities most likely. But I love introverts cause I love the moment when they finally trust you enough to be your friend...and it takes years sometimes, but they are my closest friends and always worth the wait. Some are convinced i am really an introvert as well who tries to hide it behind a bunch of glee, which may be true. I only have a few very close friends and tons of acquaintances.
But think first? Nah, I rarely do that
I think this is why I like the slow burn with Cullen...I like how long it takes to get him to open up. It reminds me of the folks I love best!
