It's a failed inside joke, David Gaider once wrote Alistair never loved you when people complained about his romance (?), I can't remember. I swear, in my head it was actually funny ... kind of.

Oh god, that was one of my favoritest threads ever :D  So much so that I gave those damned snow globes a mention in my fic...

Someone freaked out because they mis-read the discription of one of Sigrun's gifts in Awakening, and DG joined in the mock-fest* with ALISTAIR NEVER LOVED YOU.

*It was more mocking of the person's reaction to said mis-read, rather than the actual mis-read itself.

Fingers crossed, Klara, I'm on 17 and my boss hates me, do you hate me too now? If you do, I shall go and get drunk and curse you just like Alistair would...

My biggest flailings is ARE YOU READING THIS ARE YOU because I write so much a chapter and fret that people skim over it. The last one reached 10,000 words, but that might be FF.net taking into considering linebreaks/etc too.

I don't understand why ff.net fails at wordcount so badly...Seriously, it's like the final wordcount is 90% actual words and 10% 'we think this should be longer.' Not that I mind, of course. If I want a chapter to be at least 3K but can only get up to 2.7K then the fact it automatically bumps you up to that is much appreciated.

It was in that thread where someone freaked out because their Queen Cousland found a snowglobe (I think that's one of Sigrun's presents) that had Alistair and Anora in it and everyone else was all 'no, no it was leftover from CAILAN and Anora.'

The moment odiedragon mentioned the snowglobe it all came back to me. :lol:

So you still have at least 3 chapters to convince me that I'm not cursed and unworthy ... and Alistair never loved me anyway.

:D

Oh, I'm sure Alistair loves or would love you, he has a thing for pretty female elves, in my version anyway :wub:

Am I the only one drooling at the Champion of Kirkwall, imagining an AU where my (probably) female Hawke will get to meet Nathaniel before he leaves the Free Marches, and snag him before he gets to meet my Cousland from DAO?



No?



Okay, unabashed fangirl me. (But I can always hope!)

That's about the only interesting possibility for DA2 that I can think of... and while I like Nate, it's not enough to make me interested in the game.

You were so not the only one.  Nope. I believe I called Kirkwall 'Nate land' in irc today.

I'm sure this will shock you immensely, but it is MORE than enough for me.  *Cough*

I'm slightly afraid of Nate being around in DA2 because I'm doing some Nate stuff with my current fic. But I wouldn't complain. I'd just have to change it to completely AU rather than slightly AU... I'll take Nate in DA2 over being completely accurate in my fanfic EVERY DAY :).

Laugh!  It's always intense in Nate land!

Also, if DA2 goes to the mainland, let's not forget that in some endings of DA Wynne was going to go to Tevinter. And in some endings of DA Shale makes her way to Tevinter (with or without Wynne) and becomes an angry female dwarf who smashes pigeons.



And a 10 year game span is plenty of time to get to Tevinter, have the mages screw around with your physiology, and put you back to mortal form.



Now that i think of it, some endings of DAO also result in Connor going to Tevinter to study after he's gone through his harrowing. I figure he's like 12 or 13 in DAO (based on his voice actor, since every in-game child is exactly the same size whether they're 6 or 14) so assuming he's a quick study, he could be in Tevinter within that 10 year game span.



I see tons of DAO reference possibilities abounding here. And even if they don't, there'll be really cool characters who we will get to meet and we'll have tons of new ideas for fanfic!

And of course the Free Marches could also send a delegation to King Alistair of Ferelden (notorious womaniser and Grey Warden) to request assistance in dealing with the Blight...

So another Blight right after the one in DA:O? Damn those darkspawn dig fast. (I confess I haven't read anything on the new 2, I am going to get it no matter what. If I read it all the speculation just makes me more itchy).

Laugh, notorious womanizer.  If we go by our fanfics he sure is!  And also, I never knew there were so MANY female Couslands. 

For a guy who got started "licking lampposts" late, he's sure made up for lost time with no worries.  :blink:

I can just see the DA MMORPG now...King Alistair on his throne in Denerim and an entire harem of PCs loitering in the palace.

LOL - I hadn't considered that! Yes it would be hopeless, hundreds of PCs surrounding him, probably making a noise a little like that in Castle Anthrax.  Imagine the lag!
