I discovered an odd little sideline item in DAO. My level 15 elf Warden travelled to Denerim with Leliana, Zevran and my Mabari Hound in my company. This was a brief trip there to finish up some sideline tasks. As I was walking by the Chantry entrance (I don't know if it's location-specific), a brief cutaway scene had my Dog run off by himself. I was offered a few dialogue choices, one to say "come back". He then returned, followed by a boy (I think it's the same boy who delivered a message to me earlier in game.) The boy just excitedly says "Puppy! Puppy!"... and I am offered a few dialogue choices... I chose "Put him back where he belongs." Then it ends.
What's up with that? Why does it happen, and what exactly am I supposed to answer or say? Does it mean anything? Or is it just some little tidbit to story?

Nope it doesn't mean anything, it's just cute dialogue.

Dragon Age Origin - Redcliffe Tavern - Bella
Bella is the red-haired Barmaid in the tavern on the hill of Redcliffe.
BEFORE beginning the night-time battle, go to the tavern on the hill; first speak to Bella --
* Ask about the elf sitting at the table. (You must convince him to fight and get a document from him.)
* Ask "How is business?"
She will tell you about Lloyd, you ask if you can help her, offering to speak to Lloyd. She will scoff, but you can suggest getting a raise.
Then, speak to Lloyd and convince him to fight in the battle (Intimidate)
Then, anytime AFTER the night-time battle, return to the tavern and speak to Bella. If Lloyd the bartender is dead, she will be overjoyed and speak of being the new owner of the tavern. If Lloyd is alive, she will simply offer her gratitude.
This brief conversation will vary depending on your gender. For a female Warden, it is a verbal expression of thanks. However, a Male Warden can recieve an intimate kiss.
This version of the conversation only occurs if your Warden is Male:
Whether or not Lloyd is alive, as part of her gratitude for your help, you can respond in the following ways;
"How about a warm welcome for a hero?" (This response will get you a kiss.)
Or - You can simply offer her a soveriegn to aid in her needs.
Or - You can politely refuse any reward or gratitude.

DAO - Return to Ostagar
When crossing the bridge, after finding King Cailan's body hanging on that crucifix-style thing, and after defeating the darkspawn that come at you on the bridge... (assuming Alistair is in your company - as he should be for this one)... if you click on the body of Cailan, Alistair will make a nice little speech addressed to his king, ending with "We'll be back to take you to your Maker." or something like that.

DAO - Leliana & Morrigan Romances
Okay, most everyone may know this already, but I'll tell you what I've learned through trial and error.
In one play through of the game, I played a human male mage. I managed to romance both Morrigan & Leliana, break up with Morrigan to commit to Leliana, do all Leliana's side quests (including giving her the Nog), then break up with her and reunite with Morrigan (because I wanted to play out the epilogue with her).
If you want to break up with Leliana WITHOUT LOSING ANY approval points, do it outside of camp... at any other location. Use "We need to talk... about us.... this isn't going to work... Life is so uncertain."... Be kind and say "As a Grey Warden, duty comes first."
She will understand, say she will always love you as a friend, and there will be no change in her approval.
Then, return to camp, give Morrigan the Golden Mirror (buy it from Garin in Orzammar prior to this), and she will express her heartfelt gratitude, then your dialogues with her will return to "Care to join me in my tent?"*... and so forth, as though you never broke up.
* In order to reunite with Morrigan, she must be at 100 points of approval.

DAO - Morrigan's dialogue about Love
If romancing Morrigan, at some point after Morrigan is hardened (100 points approval & you had sex), and possibly after doing the Flemeth quest and giving her the Grimoire (though I'm not sure if this is necessary), she will discuss "love as a weakness".
Your dialogue choices can vary slightly... but do not use "Then you are a coward" or you will lose about 38 points of approval.
Just answer; "And what if I love you?" then... "You are a distraction for me." (or something like that)... She will say "you are a fool, but if that's what you want"... (or something similar) and your relationship goes on undaunted.
After this, when you click her to talk, instead of her "laugh"... she will always say "Your desire?".
From this point on, she is committed to you, despite denying "love", and you can go with her to her "other realm" at end of epilogue.
The one major change, however, is that after her "love" dialogue, she stops having sex... I haven't fully finished my character's game on this one, so I don't know if she changes her mind later... (Spoiler Alert) aside from the deal she makes after Landsmeet in which she has sex with you (or Alaistair) in order to concieve a child she wants to make "godlike".
When you ask "Care to join me in my tent?", she refuses, with varying responses depending on which questions you ask to follow. Do not be offensive. Simply ask "Is something wrong?", to which she will reply "Oh, it must be something wrong with me because I do not submit to your charm?" (or something like that)... then she will say she wants to be left alone.
Don't push her on this, just say "I'm sorry if I made you angry.", and leave her alone.
If you say the wrong things, you may lose 3 or 4 approval points.
As I say, this particular game is not yet finished, so I am uncertain if she eventually goes back to having sex.

DAO - Wynne's Regret: Aneirin
According to the online Walkthrough for this quest, you are supposed to talk to Sarel (the storyteller sitting on a bench) at the Dalish Camp, who tells you about Aneirin... but you have to do this BEFORE the Nature of the Beast quest. If you play the missions out of order, as I do, you might do the Nature of the Beast quest before Wynne tells you about Aneirin... or even before she joins your company. (I did the Dalish Camp location before I did the Circle of Magi tower.)
Whether or not you talk to Sarel, Aneirin is camped out near the Mad Hermit in the East Brecilian Forest. (He's off by himself in a clearing just beyond the Mad Hermit's camp.) But, he will only be there if the Wynne's Regret quest is active.

It may be the mods I have running, but I have done the quests out of order and successfully started the quest. Sometimes you have to burn through some dialog choices to get to asking about Aneirin, but it's there.
