I like hookups and flirting so I hope we will see those.
As flirting I'd like to see:
Dorian x Cullen: This would be funny to see, probaply Dorian just teasing Cullen ^^
Iron Bull x Cass: Maybe even one-night stand?
As actual romances I'd like to see:
Leliana x Cullen: Two tortured and lonely souls.. Maybe they bond with love for Maker and Andraste?
Vivi x Josie or Leli: Cause Vivi needs some love as well 
Varric x Bianca: Cause we need to know who this Bianca is.
Cullenx Casandra to me makes more sense than JosieXCullen; It seems Cass and Cullen are team Direct versus Josie and Leliana team subtle.
Zevran flirts with Alistair - the "hop borders" conversation, and then there's this (sadly cut, or bugged or something
) scene:
Alistair: I've been thinking about those ink drawings, what did you call them? Tattoos? Are you... still willing to do one?
Zevran: Oh-ho! You've decided to take the plunge, have you? What is a little pain, am I right?
Alistair: I'm not worried about that. I think they look interesting, though I'd want mine... smaller. When can you do it?
Zevran: Not so fast, my friend. There is an entire ritual to how this is done, do you not know? First I need to bathe you in a mixture of olives and rosewater.
Alistair: You need to... bathe me? That seems... odd.
Zevran: No, no, no, not at all. It needs to be worked into your skin, preparing it to receive the ink. The massage is quite pleasurable, do not worry. You are in good hands.
Alistair: The... massage? You're... having me on, aren't you?
Zevran: I might be. I might not be. Shall I describe the rest of the ritual to you?
Alistair: Hmm. No. No, on second thought I'll just pass...
Zevran: *laughs* Excellent choice!
But I agree with you that there ought to be more.
While I love that they are included, I'm thinking more about flirts that are between two people with compatible orientations. Not one bisexual guy flirting with a straight guy who would never be interested in reciprocating. There is a different tone in the flirting between, say Merrill and Carver (who could potentially be interested in each other) and Zevran and Alistair (who could never be a couple because one of them is straight).
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, Sera and Harding might be a good couple... both are rogues with at least some skill in archery, and there was that rumor long ago about Sera being interested in dwarves... it could happen.

Since we don't have much real option in s/s couplings in the romances/advisors this time around, at the very least, I'd like to see it echoed in the world, either in soldiers or nobility. I mean, for God's sake, we're in Orlais. Now is the time to bust out all the stops.

Who knows?

Huh, that could be interesting.
Even then, there is a complete difference between how Isabela 'flirts" with merrill and how Carver flirts with her. Bethany fawning over Sebastian to the degree it is mentioned by other characters. Fenris and Isabela being bed buddies, maybe more? leli's slight attraction to Morrigan, and Zevran's teasing of Alistair don't seem quite on the same level as that.
That's true - I can't recall any m/m banter that was mutual. I hope that's rectified in DAI... Bull seems like the flirtatious type, so my bet's on him, but Dorian seems like an outgoing fella too, so...
Yeah, even if they never got together, I could easily see them flirting with each other a lot.

Actually I hadn't considered this either, since I don't know that much about Dorian's personality, but they are both on team YOLO, so it's entirely possible...
I am all for flirting between Dorian and IB, but they had both better recognize that in pretty much all of my playthroughs, one of them is going to my Inquistor's boo. Flirting is all well and good, but my quizzie has to take priority! 
Didn't a dev say that there would be some? I could have sworn I heard that...
Source?
Why not? As long as you're not romancing said character, why should it matter?
Because I will no longer be able to romance said characters.

If they became an item, I imagine that there will be some kind of story threshold that we'd have to cross before it progressed beyond flirting. It would be similar to Fenris and Isabela not openly getting together until Act 3. So either this would be triggered by the Inquisitor starting a relationship with somebody else, or a certain amount of time passes and the Inquisitor simply misses their chance...

Well, the Empress is a lesbian.
I usually worry that them having hookups will make me feel guilty about breaking them up when I romance them, like I do in harvest moon.
On the other hand, unlike the harvest moon cast the dragon age cast isn't trapped forever in a town of like 20 people with only 5 their own age.
So I can always headcanon they romanced anyone else afterwards.
Source?
I'm not really sure. It could have been speculation, but I don't think that was the case... I'll see if I can remember what thread this was in... hopefully somebody else can confirm or deny it, because I think this will take a while...
Wow, that took a lot less time than I thought it would... http://forum.bioware.../#entry17312872
I was reading about dragon age inquisition on the latest issue of GamesTM and according to them some companions may form relationships with others depending on your choices and if you choose a romance or not , so which characters do you think are going to form a relationship?
Of course, this person may have been lying, but it sounded legit to me...
I don't think we'll see any companion - advisor crossover romances. Cullen x Josephine is probably it, with Leliana foreveralone. There will probably be little interaction between the advisors and companions to begin with, unless there is a slew of missions like the one with Leliana in Redcliffe. But I doubt that.
Well, the Empress is a lesbian.
In the same way Hespith and Marjolaine are. Murdering your lovers family and being generally racist toward her counts, but so does all those other crazy lesbians in fiction that are deemed more safe in the 1800s because it was a warning of what not to do. Tons of stories like that in old timey times. hard to give someone kudos for it.
I'm shipping Sera and Bianca (the crossbow) in my head.
Cullenx Casandra to me makes more sense than JosieXCullen; It seems Cass and Cullen are team Direct versus Josie and Leliana team subtle.
And people with different personality ''types'' never date?

I am not so sure. I mean Aveline hooked up with Donnic who was a nobody. Sebastian was a DLC character and the amount of flirtations between bethany and him were huge.

I guess I'll have to look up the article. I hope the poster is mistaken.

Um, I was just using her as an example of Orlais having homosexuality, not as an example of a s/s couple besides the Inquisitor and their LI.

My bad, sorry XD

I'm all about Cullen x Leliana, they seem to be the unpopular one though.
Cass and Cullen have too similar backgrounds (templars, soldiers etc.) to me.. and Josie seems to nice (lol). I'd love to see Josie with Vivi or Sera..
