What did you do today in DA? [Spoilers]

First game, I was super agreeable, let's be friends, of course I'll do that for you and here's a bunch of presents. Morrigan never went any where with me after redcliffe/wynne joined the group, so no loss of points for being a hero. and I was like oh nu! body stealing! I'll save you! and ran off to Flemeth---who then severely mind fucked me into not trusting Morrigan anymore. Also, I was totally worried I'd die because like... Man, did Flemeth feel like a GOD to me the whole 3 games. So, I wussed out and agreed to lie that I'd killed her, then felt guilty the whole rest of the game every time I talked to Morrigan. Morrigan, who blossomed and called me sister and man, there was some serious sister love there. We reciprocated that whole love. Then end game, when she's trying to get me to do the Dark Ritual, she brings up my love for Alistair and she even says she doesn't want the Warden to die either. Like, with a sad face and everything. She's trying to save my Warden and she sincerely doesn't want her to die.

2nd game, I was maximizing, and followed guides for near every conversation. And here's a bunch of presents. Still didn't come with me after Wynne joined the group. Played the hero-ish. Killed Flemeth to fix that guilty feeling from last time. Major Sister love accomplished, same sad face Dark Ritual speech. (except, awesome, she brings up BOTH Zevran and Alistair. Awesome blossom.) *fist bump*

So, here I am with Surana. I'm RPing her hard and although at first Surana has some sympathy and a feeling of comradeship with Morrigan, and takes her everywhere even over Wynne (SO MUCH ELF ROOT) I'm still buying people all the gifts. But the more she argues with what Surana is doing and the more we talk in camp...and this time I'm not following guides, I'm just RPing...the more nasty she just seems to be. Then we get into a big argument over the Grimoire, she threatens to leave if I don't stupidly risk my life in the middle of a blight for her? I finally agree. So, then I go to Flemeth planning in no way to attack the woman. My Surana hopes to get to the bottom of the thing and reason with Flemeth. And look at that, first dialogue tree has, "I just came to talk." bam. Flemeth insinuates that Morrigan isn't trust worthy, I kind of agree. I exhaust all questions before I agree to lie to Morrigan.

Fast forward; Morrigan is giving me the whole "oh my gosh, you might be my first friend evar speech." As a liar that doesn't trust her, I'm not feeling it. Then she asks if I need any sort of payment, and I joke that maybe she should be nicer. She laughs, we seem to part amicably. Her bar is max or almost max. She never agrees to teach me shape changing <- a sign we're not true friends? Then she comes to my room to offer the Dark Ritual. I'm kinda saying no right off the bat. She says surely I don't want Loghain to die and take all the glory? and I'm like @_@ do you know me at all, Morrigan? Glory has never been my thing? And when that doesn't work, she brings up Zevran. What would he think? My heart twists... and amazingly, the line, "You're a cruel woman, Morrigan." is a dialogue choice. But in the end, I don't trust Morrigan to actually do what she says she will. I tell her no. She calls me a fool and goes dog. So I'm like huh...apparently it's dialogue choices and not Max approval that determine Morrigan's affection for you, because not once did she say, "I don't want you to do. I want to save you." Like the other two times.
