Does anyone else get the Fire Emblem vibe from these?
Yep lol

Velanna can't have Nate! He belongs to my Orlesian Warden.
(Oh fine, maybe a little.)
I like Velanna. She changes her views on certain issues because of her interaction with the warden (if you befriend her), and the amount of character development she makes in Awakening is rather impressive, imo. But I am not sure about the Velanna/Nate pairing...I didn't use Nathaniel much (Oghren, Velanna and Sigrun were my main companions).
Nathaniel thinks she's attractive and tries in a kind of endearingly awkward way to make headway with that, e.g. refer to her as "my lady".
Well sadly the only thing she belongs to in my canon run is the trees.
As fertilizer.
Cause she is dead.
Rather easy to start a fight against her really.
Glad I had my other runs to see her options really.

Huh?
I always heard it as Nathaniel trolling the heck out of her because it puts her off balance.

I thought Oghren was the one who was trolling her?
One of the few times I could stand him actually.

Whenever I see full-body character designs on white/transparent backgrounds, in (combat) poses, I tend to think Fire Emblem or Suikoden. Though now I am thinking of a Fire Emblem-esque Dragon Age game and I am rather enamored with the idea.

I didn't take it as trolling; Nate sounded rather genuine to me. It did get her flustered and off balance, but that seemed because she was just in shock about someone being honestly polite and respectful to her.
That was probably the joke. I've done it myself to people who are dead set on being rude, and while on the surface I am all polite and nice deep down I'm laughing my ass off.I didn't take it as trolling; Nate sounded rather genuine to me.

I suppose I've argued too much about Sten trolling Morrigan with his whole "you'll need a pry bar" speech to dismiss the concept entirely.
Still, I rather like the idea of Nate being genuine and he and Velanna becoming a couple.

I doubt anything like that would ever happen, Velanna is too much of a elven supremacist to ever be romantic or sexual with a human.
According to her, which would make it that much more awesome.I doubt anything like that would ever happen, Velanna is too much of a elven supremacist to ever be romantic or sexual with a human.
I'd really like to see her with a human. I think maybe, of course depending on the person, it would do her wonders.

You get her approval up high enough, she really eases up on the whole elven supremacy thing.

The exchange below does not read as trolling to me, and it didn't sound like trolling when I heard it in game:
I cant play it without hearing Azula speaking there.
Freaks me the hell out.

Even if Velanna isn't gonna be in DA:I, I still hope Grey DeLise still does VA work in it
Azula's voice was the only thing I liked about her, so I didn't mind.

The exchange below does not read as trolling to me, and it didn't sound like trolling when I heard it in game:
- Velanna: I may have misjudged you a little.
- Nathaniel: Just a little?
- Velanna: I sometimes paint all humans with the same brush.
- Nathaniel: As long as it's such a pretty brush, I don't mind.
- Velanna: I'm sure I don't know what that means.
- Nathaniel: It means your apology is appreciated, my lady.
- Velanna: Well, then. Good.
- Velanna: When you were talking about the pretty brush, did you mean... me?
- Nathaniel: (Chuckles) It can't be the first time someone's said you're pretty.
- Velanna: And if it is?
- Nathaniel: Then you must not talk to many people.
- Velanna: Most people aren't worth talking to.
Nathaniel isn't a trolling typeReferring more to the conversation that preludes this.
Nathaniel: Still with the deadly looks, my lady?
Velanna: "My lady" is such a human thing to call someone.
Nathaniel: It is a term of respect. You think it's human to be respectful?
Velanna: Now you're mocking me.
Nathaniel: I think you're a lovely woman, and due some respect. So I call you a lady.
Velanna: Well... stop it!
He comes off as overly respectful to someone who doesn't respect him on principle. Trolling might not be the right word, but he is having a jest in his own way.
I will say that she does have a point here though. Even if she was very irritating, I don't think I have ever really hated companion. She was pretty wise once you got past her insults.<p>

Either way, neither of them are who they used to be. Justice should've gone back to the fade. He grew attached to this realm when he shouldn't have. When he started wanting what Kristoff had with his wife, that should be the first indication he was already changing. Spirits are not supposed to have any desires, Justice makes that clear during banter. Likely being in Kristoff's body and having access to his memories is what started the change initially. Going into a living host just made things a whole lot messier. They were both stupid. It was a horrible idea, despite the good intentions I'm sure Anders had.
Yep. Justice was a problem almost immediately. I don't even want to recruit him in playthroughs anymore, the same as Anders. They both suck. Even without merging.

Agreed.
And Anders has plenty of a nasty attitude problem if you dare disagree with him in Awakening too. He just hides it with his jokes better.
Your headcannon of him is surely a great source. With all do respect.Nathaniel isn't a trolling type
He was genuine when he complimented her and Oghren's style of fighting. He is just honest and openhearted like that
So, just deal with it
