Your favoutite non-protagonist relationship/romance

Really? But they're both crazy and mischievous. They'd probably blow up the world.

To be fair, Sera's breaking point seemed to be more elfy related than the magic. She's shown to be far more tolerant if a dwarf, human or Qunari say they believe in the events at the Temple of Mythal. Dagna should be able to avoid the more contentious aspects.

Only thing I'd be concerned about is if she decides to point a loaded weapon at Dagna in a fit of fright.

Sera's scared of magic, but even with a mage Quizzie she trusts that "she's different, so it doesn't matter".

And she explicitly tells Dorian that alchemy/magic from a bottle (which is essentially what Dagna does) doesn't bother her, because if it goes wrong no one busts out in demons.

I mean, feel free to dislike the ship anyway, but there's that.

Even with that said, Dagna is all about magic to the point of obsession and at best Sera doesn't give a crap about it. Most of her banter with Dorian is about him trying to get her interested in the stuff, eventually she gets annoyed to where she tells him "I. Don't.Care. I like you Dorian, don't push it." It just doesn't seem like the best fitted relationship. One person loves something so much that they based their life around it, and the other person at best doesn't care about it and wants people to stop talking about it.

Oh, I totally forgot: Bethany and Sebastian.



"But that's your sister!" Yeah, but when your own RL sisters fall exclusively for fuckoffs and nitwits, you appreciate it when one of them falls for a nice guy.

I somewhat agree with Cullen/Cassandra, since they have a lot in common, but I'd prefer them to remain as friends. I do think that as a couple they could be quite stable and sweet.

As for those I do ship, Dorian/Bull is pretty high up (even their ship name is cute--Adoribull!) and Sebastian/Bethany, and Carver/Merrill.

_{Also Fenris/Isabela a bit. Yes, it's problematic, but it intrigues me. I think they have potential. Please don't kill me}

Aveline/Donnic is definitely my favourite, though and I'm pretty cool with Dorian/Bull, too. They have great banter that shows the progress of their relationship so there's definitely chemistry there (though my Quizzies do tend to steal Dorian for themselves ). Krem/Maryden is cute: it's the reason I now always go with Spirit!Cole. .

Anyway, to keep it short, I like all pairings with the exception of one: Varric/Bianca - I downright hate that one. Not sure if I'll be able to explain it properly, but I felt like the writers tried too hard to make me like her and the pairing. "Look, she has Varric's deadpan humour!" "Look! She's a genius!" "Look! She's an ever better archer than Varric!" "Look! Their love story is tragic" and I'm like, "Give me a break. >.>"

Funny, this reminds me of an interview where David Gaider expressed bemusement over the notion that all romances had to be positive and loving. He thought that ones you knew were a train wreck in the making were just as, if not more fun to write and play. Hot and angry and sweaty passion, followed by hilarious awkwardness.

Dagna might be the only being in the universe capable of making Sera ok with magical research so SeraxDagna gets my vote.
