Leliana Thread -- "By Andraste's Grace"

'Tis made by "against-stars" on deviant art 

Some Leliana x Aeducan love.

Aww Tittus that's lovely. Made my heart hurt.

You mean you go through the entire romance without wading through her swamp?

Not even once?

Here are some more art of our favorite bard.  Leliana artwork is hard to find, so I don't know if these have been posted before.

Although Leliana has always been a trained assassin in the series.  I like her optimism and sort of naivete in Dragon Age Origins.  Which is part of the reason why Origins Leliana is my favorite.  Great work as always, Rosshiro.

Yeah. I also like how she will also say it if you pick “Don’t get mushy on me now” when giving him his sword and you can say she is right and he is a softie which she says she told you, much to Sten’s chagrin.

Yeah I love that banter. It actually has two different versions. There is this one with him picking flowers, and the other with him playing with a kitten. 

Leliana: I saw what you were doing back there.
Sten: Oh?
Leliana: Don't play innocent with me.
Sten: What are you talking about?
Leliana: You. Playing with that kitten.
Sten: ...There was no kitten.
Leliana: Sten, I saw you. You dangling a piece of twine for it.
Sten: I was helping it train.
Leliana: You're a big softie!
Sten: We will never speak of this again.
Leliana: Softie!

Then regardless of which one happens these two banters occur later:

Sten: Stop that.
Leliana: (Giggles) Stop what?
Sten: That. Looking at me and giggling.
Leliana: I can't help it! You are so big and stoic! Who would have thought you'd be a big softie?
Sten: Stop saying that! I am a soldier of the Beresaad! I am not a softie!
Leliana: (Giggles) Softie!
Sten: ...I hate humans.


Sten: (Sigh) Leliana, what do you want from me?
Leliana: Nothing! I'm just curious. There's a lot we don't know about you, Sten. ...Except that you're a big softie.
Sten: Please stop saying that.
Leliana: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make fun of you. There's nothing wrong with having a heart, Sten. It's just not what I expected.
Sten: Why?
Leliana: You're so Qunari! All the stories speak as if you were a hurricane or an earthquake rather than people.
Sten: Qunari are most dangerous because we are thinking men and not an unthinking force.
Leliana: I don't understand. What do you mean?
Sten: For your sake, I hope you never find out.

Like the one I posted before in the Morrigan thread. Here is a video of Leliana speaking about the Warden in Inquisition. Like Morrigan she refers to the Warden as "my love." It goes without saying the video contains spoilers.
