Hmmm I wonder how that would work out, with Varric being available to men as well... unlike Anders I don't see him being very quick to telegraph his sexuality to a potential male LI.
Don't care how I want it now! Yeah, I don't know I'm sure if it did happen though it'd be like the rest, some flirting option will pop up, and things will proceed...probably awkwardly at first. 
Well, I'm heading to bed. Night/morning all! It was fun posting with you lot!
Yeah he does, Aimo really captured the intimacy of the moment there.

I don't have any problem with him flirting with Males, as I am one myself and would like to romance him. I just hope he doesn't start flirting as soon as he meets us like Anders did. That goes for both genders really.

I think many on this thread have agreed that you're going to have to work through a few layers before Varric will start legitimately flirting so I don't think that'll be a problem. He may crack flirt with you before that though since he kinda did that in DA2 as well 
.
Also the Aimo pic with male Lavallen has a ficlet to go with it. I won't link directly to it, cause it is a bit more NSFW than the art, but if you were to say... visit Aimo's original post (link below) you might be able to find a way to get to it.

Sorry, was playing DA2 and doing chores tonight. I noticed earlier that someone was asking about the difference between Varric in DA2 and his upcoming appearance in Inquisition. We should get one of them into the OP.
Before:
Now;
Hi guys and hi new people.
Wow threads got really busy.
Hmm his eyes and eyebrows are different, lips look a little thinner, and DAI Varric's cheeks are a little more sunken in. Never noticed any of that aside from the cheeks. Hmm eye color difference is a little weird.
This made me crack up.
Context: http://dalishmarshma...manuscript-into
Two men hunched over desks with their blonde hair pulled back into ponytails so as not to get covered in ink, unlike their darkened fingers
swapping manuscripts back and forth and laughing wheezily to each other as they read what the other has done
"Come on, Blondie, that’s not what she would say there.""It’s realistic!""It’s not realistic for a woman in the throes of orgasm to cry ‘I’m as free as the Mages should be!’”"Perhaps you’ve been doing it wrong, then."
Hi guys and hi new people.
Morning.

I couldn't find a better pic of him that wasn't in shadow, so that may explain the eye color in DA2. Then again, Frostbite seems to do weird things to screenshots. Remember the bug where everyone's eyes where brown? I'll try to grab a better screenshot of him in good lighting.
As someone pointed out, he got more classically handsome, with the higher cheekbones, the deeper-set eyes, and the more expressive eyebrows.
Nice
Hmm here's a promising observation to add to the optimism list http://occupythedas....he-total-number

I'm pretty sure it's the lighting, Varric's eyes are still brownish amber as far as I can tell.
And yeah they really made him more conventionally handsome this time around, I wonder why they did that. I guess maybe it's because some of his less conventional traits actually stemmed from DA2's lack of realism and soft "watercolor" aesthetic.
I would hope it's not just because they made him a romance this time around, because they didn't need to do that if that were the case. They actually uglified Garrus a little bit in ME2 (rocket to the face and all) and people still loved him .
Given Iron Bull, I'm not too worried that they prettied Varric up just for a romance. It's probably as much to do with the engine as anything.
Maybe we'll see Bianca with the Carta because she had to work with them to avoid getting killed.
Maybe we'll have to kill her. 
I mean... with what they did to Leske... ;.;
What about the Dwarfquisitors background possibly being Carta?
I assume there are different Carta groups running around. Maybe our Quizzy tried to get away from the Carta and failed? Maybe Carta!Bianca is the one to find us again.
The Inquisitor's have the best daydreams. . Added this lovely to the fanart post.
Also remember how we were talking about the neckerchief vs. chest hair awhile back? Well I've found the best of both worlds.
*drooolsss*

The fact that Iron Bull exists without fan prompting makes me incredibly optimistic for the future of romances in Bioware games. Less conventionally attractive characters, more variety and interesting storylines, things are definitely heading in the right direction.

Seeing as how the Carta has a vested interest in the mage-templar conflict I bet our Quizzy was sent to see how the peace talks went.

Yep. I bet they make buckets on Lyrium trade.
The Seekers would definitely be invited. The Carta just invite themselves.
Next thing to plan is dwarf babies. Need name ideas
Bianca. Obviously.
While everything is possible, I still don't think a dalish or a Carta dwarf (or a Vashoth, if not as a bodyguard), would be invited in the peace talks. While other groups are definitely interested in the war, the conference was about finding a peace between mages and the Chantry (possibly templars), I don't see why external groups would be invited.
Now you see the key word here is "Invited" I think quite a few groups probably invited themselves .
Addar we can certainly see getting invited as a bodyguard as you said. Quite a few elven apostates probably went to the Dalish for support, so they're getting dragged into this whether they want to or not. The Carta's got a vested interest so they're coming no matter what anyone has to say about it. And the human noble might be from a prominent religious family. Whatever the case I'm sure every Inquisitor will have reasons for being there.
Retour en haut
