Well... Cullen did get unhappy & very angry to my Inquisitor when I recruited the mages as ally...
Yea there's a little bit of reaction. Just not as much as there should have been imo. Or like instead of Cullen expressing his worry at the war table after the Mythal quest there should have been.... y'know what I'm gonna write a mini fanfic for y'all about what SHOULD have happened after that quest BRB!

Oooh I'm waiting this!!! Will that includes lots of yellings? Or just him interiorizing everything? 
You guys didn't say whether or not you broke up with him. Of course, I reloaded and did it properly, but I found it to be super well done. Except for the Quizzie's reactions though. They were...cold.

Ideas brewing 
My Quizzie is a bad girl. Except..wait. She hadn't kissed him yet in my case. Damn it...it won't work.
My Cullen romance WS has a King Alistair/Queen Cousland in a political marriage, with Zevran in the background
, so it'll be Hawke and Stroud. Even though I never played DA2, I'm not happy with leaving either of them behind, but it'll probably be Stroud staying in this one. I want to vary up the order, though, on some other PTs (I have one coming up with a Warden Alistair, so I want to plan that one carefully, but I'm hoping they fix the Alistair-Morrigan dialogue before then).
*breaths deeply* You have never played DA2...Ti...I don't think I can ever look at you the same way...Just kidding, lol!
Really? Perhaps I need to be more romantic
. I just found it so hawt, as you put it, so spontaneous...I`m thinking that it started there, BUT perhaps they gathered their wits and ...finished elsewhere
I think it's easy enough to head cannon it either way; his question could just as easily have been whether she wanted what was already a physical relationship to continue long term as it was whether she actually wanted it to become physical. My personal reaction was that they seemed awfully comfortable with each other physically already for it to be a first time (and a Dalish elf can actually ask him if this is a fling after the first kiss,) so I tend to think of it as a celebratory "she wants to stay with me" moment. It is really steamy, but the kind of thing I personally tend to imagine happening when you're already comfortable with each other. But it works just as well for someone who wants that to be the first time; that's the beauty of it, there doesn't have to be a right interpretation of that scene.

I did once... for science. Well, many times in fact, just trying in every scene when it's possible. It was... heartbreaking. The saddest one was not even when you break up with him, but when you played with his emotion during "Start The Romance" scene. You rouse his hopes up, flirting with him etc, then ask him for a walk to speak about both of you, starting to say that you're interested. He admit that he's interested too. And then you say "Nah, sorry bro, we'll just be friends".
Whew. That scarred me for life. I need hours of therapy to get out of this. 
You can headcanon (and now I'm coming up with my own headcanon) that you get back, freak out to Cullen about Mythal, cry on the bedroom floor or whatever, and not know what the hell is going to happen to you. All you wanted was to know how to defeat Corypheus, agreed to get a bunch of knowledge that you don't know what to do with, and only later found out that, oh yeah, Mythal's alive and well. So, I guess my headcanon is that the Inquisitor has just as much, if not more reason to start breathing into that paper bag.
Oh that is good. I just finished the part with Flemeth and I'm breathing into that paperbag myself for the stuff she and Morrigan told my IQ, Quizzie herself is definitely going to run over to Cullen for a good long cry about how none of this stuff makes any sense and she was only trying to do the right thing and now heretical gods and witches of ancient legends are telling her where to go and what to do and the Maker will probably burn her in holy fire for this and damnit maybe she should have died in that explosion after all because all she does is screw everything up, etc. Good thing Cullen is the sweetest, most gentle and understanding thing in the world, because he'll have to be very patient and kind with this particular panic attack.
Actually seriously considering making the well my canon for now. The content you get with Flemeth by drinking yourself is much better than just watching her argue with Morrigan otherwise, and all this discussion about how it affects the IQ's relationship with Cullen is making for some really interesting scenarios between them about magic, religion, mutual trust, etc.
Another thing that only ocurred me now is that Cullen is very experienced with nights of restless sleep and hearing voices/songs in his head, so if anyone can help her through that, it's him. It balances things out a bit, sharing the onus of supporting each other through issues that won't really ever go away. Hmmm.
Really? Perhaps I need to be more romantic
Oh no, that desk saw it's fair share of action for my girlies. 
Ah so cute, I imagine the Inquisitor coming back from an especially dangerous mission where she's been gone for weeks and Cullen is in his office nervously waiting to hear from her. She swings open the door, he stands up surprised and she just runs and kisses him. Cullen would pull away and cup her face in his hands just to look at her and they would both burst out in happy, relieved laughter to the point of crying and then they'd continue kissing. Not wanting to let the other one go, they would just fumble around knocking everything over and end up on the floor.Nice!!! Or just making out passionately the entire time until they got to their destination. Bumping into ladders, the bookshelf...They are indeed laughing the entire time. It's silly and yet passionate at the same time...

I didn't get that! I really feel like my romance with Cullen was like a friendship that turned into more... I do not know if it is because I ended up spending sooooooo much time on mundane things, because, I got to flirt a couple of times with him in Haven, but everything else happened at Skyhold (like l asking him about Kirkwall and leaving someone behind). So my head cannon is that my quizzie's pent up energy was just too much to keep bottle up. Ellana is bad...bad...but good...but so baaaad when it comes to Cullen. And..he started it. I just knocked the bottle off by accident.

Wow...I couldn't. I broke up with him after the sex scene...Just to be friends. He says NOTHING. And just walks away. It was sooooo hearthbreaking that I reloaded immediately and replayed the sex scene. Poor buddy. The look in his eyes!!!!
*breaths deeply* You have never played DA2...Ti...I don't think I can ever look at you the same way...Just kidding, lol!
*pout, scuffing foot* Nugfarts.
Honestly, I began to play DAO late enough (less than 2 years ago) that I knew DAI was coming, and I just didn't see myself replaying DA2 more than once at most unlike DAO with 11 PTs. I see the appeal for a lot of people, but I don't spend money on games that don't appeal to me personally. I don't entirely think DAI is as good as DAO for my personal tastes, though some of that MAY have to do with the fact that apparently one of their game devs has a major nostalgia for old platform games where you have to jump and jump and jump to reach everything (well, I just finished the Storm Coast, and it certainly felt like that).

I`m still mad about the damn shards. Who DOES that!!!???

That's the beautiful part of a game. You could actually do that, & then reload. After I reload & start the relationship officially with him well... He got thousands of kisses.
Do you have any save files from before starting a romance with him? You can start anytime after skyhold.
I feel bad that the break up options are even there with Cullen during his cutscenes. Is that weird? They're placed at such terrible times (reminds me of *cough*Solas*cough*), that even looking at them on the dialogue wheel makes me cringe O.o

Let me see if I can get screen shots. It was one of the conversation options when you ask him if being Dalish is a problem. I'm trying to stretch the romance out quite a bit because my Dalish mage is older and inclined to be really sure of him first.

Yes...lost of fumbling and hitting stuff...hiding behind corners cause Jim the messenger is there...again.

I like that Lavellan has an option to ask Cullen if it's just a fling to him. I can imagine some of my Dalish being hesitant to get with a human because of the fear of being used.

Oh! Ok! Isn't that where he says that he never really thought of it as elves in the circle were just line everyone else?

Yeah... I really feel that the break up option just before comitting to the relationship (that desk job scene) is just... cruel? He was showing what seemed to be a quite vulnerable side (not very sure of himself that you actually wanting to be with him after the Inquisition etc) and you just do basta... And one of the choice of dialogue is very harsh.
Ouch.
at least during his perseverance quest if the relationship was broken it was him who did it. I can't face the option of dumping him when he's at his most vulnerable state.

Oh man...my Ellana is shameless. lol

Oh yeah! And there's even possibility of telling him that "I'm not sure myself" and he still reply with "I'm very serious about this".
