he is such a liar. IT'S SO OBVIOUS WHEN YOU KNOW HIS SECRET I have one save with Warden Alistair and I'M SO TORN. I have left Hawke behind and it just breaks my heart.

I'll probably leave Alistair, I never want to see Varric that sad again

sob ZEVRAN. My baby. ;n;

I have one in Cullen Rutherford's treasure, one in .Alistair.'s treasure, and now one in Barris's treasure. Because I needed another pet (plus one in my invo). XD Dat smirk. cx Ugh. I love Cullen.

I have one playthrough with a Hawke that made all the wrong decisions set up. And that's my save with Alistair in the wardens. I can't ever leave him behind! :c <3

And I can't not side with the Templars now. I feel too guilty if I try. (I have a playthrough going that I was torn enough over that I have two saves running. One before I sided with the mages and one that I sided with the mages on. I fully intend to play all the way back through with the same inquisitor at some point and side with the templars. Reason why below...)

Ugh. I don't know if I even want to have Blackwall as a pet name anymore...I could do so many different things with a story for him but I'm still feeling all Fuck you beardwall right now.

I love Barris, but I like having Dorian with my once it's time to seal the breach... I'm also torn about it because of the whole Divine epilogue bit which I actually haven't gotten to because I suck and am sitching between Inquisitors and trying to wrap up all the shit I haven't done before I reach the point of no return.

I think on this new Inquisition playthrough I'm doing I'll align myself with the Templars. I want to see if/how it plays out differently since I allied with the mages in Georgie and Alleria's plays. I also want to bring Solas into the fade this time. I think him and Sera are the only two I've never taken in for some reason. Well, Sera because I don't take her anywhere. Not sure why I haven't brought Solas.

I completely understand that too. XDI usually take Solas, Cass, and the third person varies based on my inquisitor's class. (Usually Varric, Bull, or Cole though).

I know the feeling. I'm still trying to wrap up a few of my PS4 playthroughs so Will can remove them if he needs to. XD I'm trying to get all my companion quests done with before I finish my playthroughs. Though, he knows he has to keep Ena and Efa for me so I can go dragon hunting. :3

Solas is interesting in the Fade. :3 Sera is probably pretty funny. I just know that she hates being there, so I've never taken her or Cole. I usually take Varric (even though he dislikes it), because it's an adventure with Hawke for him.

aw poor Blackwall :c Maybe once sometime passes you'll feel better about him.

I mean, I'll probably get over it. I've got a bunch of ideas for his story at this point.

So I'm strolling around in Val Royeaux and this random ass noble (near that shop where you can buy decorations and shit for Skyhold) just fainted. I've got the subtitles on for everything and it said something like "Overdramatic faint". I lost it. I cackled for like a good 10 seconds. I'm assuming he fainted because he saw my badass Lavellan strolling around with Dorian, Sera, and Bull. We make quite the group. ?

See once the bitter taste of the lie wears off you'll be fine!

I know that guy. Haha it probably was

Loooollll. I was looking through my dropbox and found these.

Drinking advice from Bull. How I feel about Tequila.

And this is Cullen in a nutshell.

Did you ever notice this codex update?

Also, The Smirkâ„¢.

It needs a TM at the end, because it is a thing. I am making it a thing.

UGHHHHH. I CAN'T. FUCK THE WORLD. CULLEN IS OFFICIALLY MAH FAVORITE LI AND I WILL NEVER GET OVER THIS EVER. Shit, I thought I was team Solavellan but I just can't with the Cullenmance, especially with a mage Trevelyan. SOMEBODY STOP ME.

Cullen is a gem at the war table HERE and HERE are a couple of examples. Actually just saw that the first one is from a MP event oops Plus that codex update made me so happy! AND I CAN'T GET OVER THAT HUG. I WISH I COULD TAKE PROPER SCREENSHOTS.I romanced him with a mage Trevelyan too. IT'S JUST SO NICE WHEN YOU CAN JUST HUG YOUR LI I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT IT IS.

Omg. THE ONE ABOUT TEAM BUILDING EXERCISES IS THE BEST (especially with the text the submitter added below). ahahahaha. I totally remember that banter with Varric in DA II. It makes me so happy that they referenced it in Inquisition. Little things like that make me smile.

I was like SQUEEEEEE when I read that update. I'm about to make a self-quisitor to romance Cullen...And yes, I agree about hugs. It makes it more realistic because it's not like everybody just wants to go screw eachother/makeout before a possible life/death situtation. It makes it seem more like it's not just a physical thing. It's a bigger emotional bond and has more impact that way imo.

Answering your comment shortly. Gonna see something before I finish my response to it.

Like you have the option to kiss your LI's whenever you want, why can't I just walk up and hug em.

The first part with Cullen and Duchess in a Box Tour is the best though.

take your time~

Except Solas...he's like no. No love for Lavellan. PDA? Solas Greatly Disapproves.

It reminds me of when you choose the diplomatic option when meeting with Anders in DA II when he does the whole favor for a favor bit when you want to get the maps and comments something like "what if I were asking for the Knight-commander's head on a pike" then Hawke is like, Is that what you want? and he goes "you decide". Why do I have that memorized??????

Ah so that's why you can't just kiss him haha. LOOKS LIKE A LOSS FOR SOLAS.

I remember that too. I can't answer that question, I mean it's not like you ever played the game or anything?

I haven't actually spent a whole lot of time checking the codex in DA:I yet (shockingly enough)! So I hadn't actually seen that. cx Thanks for sharing it!

Gah! Cullen is too perfect. <3 That should definitely be a thing. It could be our next event thread! XD I need to romance him with a mage Trevelyan. :o I've only done Lavellans so far (because I think my elves are cuter than my humans). Cullen is definitely my favorite by far. So many cute/adorable/I want to hug and never let go/<3 kinda feels.

I need to make a human self-quisitor. (My elfy one turned out not to look like me as much). XD

I love that hugging is a thing in DA:I. <3 I wish it was an option like kissing is too though. XD I'm a hugger irl. And the pikes. XD That was one of my favorite responses.

/I feel like I need to go find someone to make me art with Cullen holding up a big sign that says "DON'T" and Varric giving a thumbs up on it./ It might have to happen. XD

I always check the codex after getting that little codex updated message with companions. I was like Yaaaaayyyyyyy when I saw it.

I made a Trevelyan who looks relatively like me. The eye color was a pain since my eyes are brown with hazel-y green in them. The inner iris color is hard to make seamless without causing it to just look that color. Oh and my hair is a dark reddish brown so none of the colors are right. Good enough though.

Well. I'm headed down to Virginia now!

I'll have to check and see if it's there for Efa when I go see Will again. X3 (I'm sure it is).

Nice! X3 Mine looks decently like me (I couldn't quite get her cheek shape right and there are no hair styles that match anything like my normal ones... Plus my hair is half way down my back. Dark red... Like an unnatural red isn't doable). My eyes are actually kinda similar to yours from the sound of it. XD Mine are brown with a greenish inner circle. (Nearly impossible in the character creator... They look too muddy when I try). I'm happy with her though. I had to change her freckles (and giver her a bit of makeup) and hair style once I actually started, but I think she turned out well. :3

Cullen's Me-quisitor

Trying to decide if the fact that her cheekbone hides part of her hair is going to bother me thank the Maker for the Black Emporium)

Have fun in VA! <3 I'll be up at my grandfather's for the weekend (my dad and two of my cousins and I are driving up to hang out with him).

I'm not really much of a hugger irl, but I just want to hug everyone who is willing to be hugged in DA:I. As soon as I read that option on the war table I picked Cullen. it was awesome!
