Honestly, I think Cassandra and Jolie are especially attractive looking.
I do think Sera is conventionally attractive for the most part, some people are just overly critical. And sexist.
It's usually the straight men who are complaining that not every female love interest are perfectly sexy to them. Really goes to show the entitlement.
It's not straight men. It's a very tiny minority who are looking for a waifu to make them feel all masculine and strong. Or at least that's how I see them.
I present to you, Natalie Portman, as a dwarf!
Edit:
Nevermind. This is just going to cause problems.
Now that I've thought about it for a little while, I just want to say that I'm really happy to be part of a thread where we can appreciate different kinds of beauty. It means a lot. I've never had a body or eating disorder, but people I know and care about have. In fact my whole family lived in fear that my sister would develop one for years because of her "mannish feature" - her height. She's a tall woman (about 185 cm), it's not freakishly tall but she's very uncomfortable about it. This led her to exercise obsessively and she almost stopped eating. She recently got past it, but she's still not entirely fine. Unfortunately I think that one of the reasons why she made it through, is because a classmate of hers almost died because of his eating disorder and was hospitalized for a long time. My sis is still very young, so I hope that as she matures, she'll grow more comfortable in her own skin.

hi there
um
this is all fyeahvarric's fault?
*gasp* This is awesome!
Welcome! Just so you know, I'm rooting for Aysunn/Varric to happen. I want you to get your qunari romance!
I was supposed to go to bed but the weird people calling Sera a dwarf are back and it makes it hard to sleep.
Wait what? People are calling Sera a Dwarf?
In the Sera thread, a *couple* people keep saying Sera has a square jaw and big nose (wtf, is her nose really that big?) So she looks like a dwarf, and apparently pointy ears aren't enough to be an elf, and I'm frustrated and confused. Not that it's an insult, I love dwarves... but it's dumb.
Not all elves have to look the same.I'm glad they're bringing diversity into their looks. I mean c'mon, they're even saying "she has short hair." as a reason she looks dwarven. really?
voices in my head: "Cher, go to bed now before you start freaking out over dumb stuff too much, you're tired and cranky."
SHUT UP VOICES
It's been very frustrating to be honest, especially when we then get categorised as 'hostile' by the arch-king of unnecessarily hostile responses. I tried to mitigate things over PM but I'm not sure how amenable they were to that. Hopefully Allan has doused the fires successfully now.
Anyone who thinks Sera looks like a Dwarf has socks in their eyes.
I think that response would've lightened the mood over there immensely, so thanks for posting

Yes, please don't lump us all with the silly* folk. Silly* folk are silly* regardless.
* I may not actually be saying the word 'silly' here.
In other news, I'm still crossing my fingers for you crazy guys in hope of some Varric lurving.... though I fear tis a small chance
But even as just a friend he will be as awesome as ever! Hopefully the tides of war and chaos won't leave too many scars on our favourite dwarf... I'd hate to think he ends up bitter and broken.

I think everyone will be pretty beaten up both physically and psychologically. The Blight was bad enough, but the sky tearing open? I'm sure most people thought it was impossible. I can see Varric hiding his pain behind humor, but with a darker tone to it this time around.
I can see a lot of dialogue/characterisation mileage in that. Varric (and everyone else) struggling not to be pulled down by the hardships and terrors of the Fadepocalypse, looking for the light amongst the shadows, the hope in the dark.... Jokes and stories could be hard to come by, and appreciated more.

That's where the Inquisitor steps in! Even if Varric is not a romance, It will be interesting to interact with him. I'd like if he drew comparisons between Hawke and the Inquisitor.
VARRIC: You know, Hawke always used to say things like that, too. Encourage us to tell our stories, forget our woes, to move on from our interesting yet troubled pasts. And then.... drag us off somewhere even more terrifying and bloody than before. It was... strangely effective. You're very similar, actually.
INQUISITOR: Umm.... thanks?
VARRIC: It reminds me of that time we went down the coast from Kirkwall and....

Cassandra: Oh for... Are you telling tall tales again?
Inquisitor: *death glare*
Cassandra: ... Carry on.
Varric: So, as I was saying [continues story]

I think everyone has equal chances. It ain't over till the fat lady sings.
OMG I JUST SAW THIS ON TUMBLR. *yes I'm a slowpoke, kay...*

Perhaps this release date delay and the lack of information about the last two li's is because they realised they *must* make Varric a love interest and are hurrying to make it so. Ha!
Varric looking pretty
Spoiler
I agree, and what is it with these people and complaining about the jawlines of the female characters? It's always the jawlines!
Omgosh aw!

Wait, people think Sera looks like a Dwarf ? I.....what ?
Also, this is not Varric related, but I had to post it. Blackwall art incoming.

It's the same guy from yesterday. Apparently if it's not Liv Tyler, it's not an elf. (NO SERIOUSLY, that was an actual argument)
Retour en haut
