so i restarted DA2

I am in obsessed crush-mode over my f!Hawke. My first play-through I used default!Hawke, but this time with the help of The Boy, I designed an absolutely gorgeous character. Total girl crush.

She's Larissa Hawke again, rogue extraordinaire with a soft spot for scruffy mages. I am playing her a bit differently, though. First time I went with snark all the way to the end; this time she's more focused on her family, and uses gentler tones with her mother and sister, and the friends she adopts. And she takes no shit from people threatening her loved ones. No fucking shit at all dagger to the face.

Almost done with play-through #2 of DA:O. I'm at the Landsmeet, preparing for the difficult task of conscripting secret!character. Once I've finished that, it'll be a quick run through DA:O-A, then I'll finally play as a male character in DA2. Got his name picked out: Tristan. ...Who's probably going to romance Anders again.

/dorkiness that no one other than me cares about

I was going to recrut him this time. I really was. I'm playing as male so romance isn't an issue, I didn't harden Alistair so it would be easier not to make him king... and then we got to Denerim and had our meeting with Loghain and my Surana *hated him on sight*. He was mean to Eamon, mean to Alistair, mean about the Wardens... and I just don't think I'll be able to go through with it.

On the other hand, I keep hearing that he makes an interesting companion, particularly if you take him to Ostegar (a quest which I'd been saving for after the Landsmeet for this purpose), and I really do want to see the Redeemer ending. So maybe I just have to harden my heart. I managed to support Bhelan and kill Caradin this time through (mostly because my m!Surana is head over heels for Zevran, and he supported both those courses of action), I can do this, right? >.> I can always go back and fix it later...
