Description The complete title of this strip should be "Never get on an Assassin's nerves" and yes, I'm completely on fangirl mode right now. Since I got to the point in the game in which Zevran gives the earring to my character (she got it in the second chance, because she wanted it to mean something) all my ideas for strips were romantic, dull ones, all about how much they love each other and how happy they'll be together.

But seeing Zevran soo nervous when Yllwenn asks him about his real intentions and forces him to confess his love made me think "Hey, she's taking such a big risk!!! He's an assassin after all, what if she really gets on his nerves enough to make him react according to his assassin instict?"... And... well, luckyly Wynne DID have those resurrection spells...

Hope you like this one. I'm running out of funny ideas right now.

(And YES, there's actually one banter in which Zevran tells Shale having children is one of the joys of life. That gave me a lot to think about...)

Another one I missed. Should have done a more through checking after comic back from Germany.
Anyways about this:
2nd panel definetly is the best. Her lovey-dovey face and Zevs shocked expression are WIN.
Last one is very funny too even though I cannot put my finger on a specific part.

I enjoyed very much making this particular one, even if it now resents time passing. This is from the time I was still playing the game so the scenes were fresh in my mind. And I'm BAAAD, very bad!!! Have you seen those parody films, like "Scary movie" saga or the recent "Vampire Sucks"? Well, when I see a serious movie or play a game, even if I'm enjoying it, I'm the same way... I always think "What if...." and come up with a funny situation. That's what happened here.

Well that's how I came up with my suggestions, for me it usually happens afterwards when I re-think about specific points.
What if this, what if that, maybe....

SoniaCarreras In reply to misi-chan [2010-06-10 10:35:52 +0000 UTC]

Una de las cosas que me encantan de Zevran es que es el eterno optimista. Todo se lo toma por el lado bueno, no como cierto emo que llora por todo . Pero cuando le dije que no aceptaba el pendiente si no significaba algo agarró tal rebote que creí de verdad que me apuñalaba por la espalda... (Me encanta cuando dice "¿Andas cogiendo todos los tesoros que encuentras por ahí y no aceptas un puto pendiente si no significa algo? ¡Pues ahora ni pendiente ni hostias!" O algo así, vamos, seguro que así lo diría en antivano)

Lo de hacer hijos me parece una buena idea. Practicando un montón antes, para que salgan bien, que conste (así digo yo siempre que hicimos mi marido y yo el nuestro y que por eso nos salió tan bien XD XD)

Yo tambien me acojone con el cabreo de Zevran, estuve a puntito de cargar partida otra vez xD Mi elfo se quedo con ganas de darle una bofetada y decirle: Tio, que TE QUIERO, que llevo medio juego perdiendo el culo por ti, ¿no te das cuenta?
(Si, se quedo muy dolido el pobre xD)

Sobre lo de hacer hijos xD, no tiene nada que ver pero jugando a la version PC con mods, le puse a Alistair aquel de no distinguir sexos. Y es brutal cuando le dice a mi Cousland que nos sera dificil tener hijos xDDDDD Y eso que a mi Cousland Alistair ni fu ni fa, el estaba con ser Gilmore xDDD

Yo es que me guardo grabados de todos los momentos clave, por si acaso... Justo antes de la rosa, justo después de hablar con Goldanna, justo después de matar a Taliesin... Así puedo rejugar esos trozos y ver que pasaría si elijo otras opciones de dialogo, que es lo que me mola...

Al final tendré que bajarmelo para PC para poner mods, que me dais una envidia (aunque a mi lo de yaoi, como ni fu ni fa...)

Si te digo la verdad, a mi el yaoi con Alistair no me atrae ni un poquito, es que me gustan mas las cosas con su coherencia xD Pero tenia un pobre dalishano enchochadito perdido con el, y como en la Xbox va a hacer el sacrificio final, digo, va, en el PC vamos a darle una alegria xD Eso si, a mi Cousland no le ahcia ni pizca de gracia que le hablase como a una mujer xDDDD

oohhh!! ohh!!

I just remembered some funny lines with sten! Ones hidden that no one I think has heard, and it only happended once during my seven playthroughs on my evil playthrough, which surprising enough I could FEEL that these two people made sense together..

Ok it goes like this, when the pc and the Sten are disccusing something that's he's mentioned on the chantry

PC: Well, Maybe the Chantry has a point.
Sten: Then you should release it, it's in danger of dieing...
PC:HAHAHAHAHA! Good one! Did you just come up with that one just now?
Sten: I don't know... that just came out of me....

SoniaCarreras In reply to SynneWarrior [2010-06-09 09:20:31 +0000 UTC]

I've searched for lots of banters in the web, because I love them. Moreover, since my copy of the game has Spanish subtitles, sometimes I need to check the spelling of the dialogs to include them in my strips. But unfortunately there are many dialogs missing in the web, you're right.

I got one in which Sten told my character a Qunari story or legend, I can't recall... I've tried to retrieve it for a strip, but I can't find it anywhere, and I can't find it in the game either. My husband says I must have dreamed it but I'm sure it happened, more over, it was in the same camp moment in which Wynne told me the Griffons story and Leliana told me Aveline's one. So it was quite sweet... three characters telling a tale, I felt like a beloved daughter, LOL!

SynneWarrior In reply to SoniaCarreras [2010-06-09 13:37:31 +0000 UTC]

Qunari Story? Piiff that's one's more retrievable, since I bring him evverryyywhhhere That is triggered I think by the mages tower or one the mages conversations. Theres one conversation triggered by one random thing where I think zevran and sten mentioned something about tal vashoth Qunari Exiles. OOOoohh yes, I have seen them all, and all but that one I have accessed six times...

Heh... which story was this? Was it about a bee? Or when he was in the Junlge searching for dead bodies?

Either way I have nooo Idea what he is trying to prove against mages on the bee one...

Im a Qunari Fanatic... Sten is the Awesomest!!

SoniaCarreras In reply to SynneWarrior [2010-06-09 15:10:17 +0000 UTC]

I think it may be the bee one? It was kind of a story, not something happened to him, and it was a camp conversation, not banter. I had the Tal Vashoth conversation later in the game, I think, and the one about the jungle, isn't it a banter between him and Zevran?

I tried to have Sten in my party as often as I could, but I was very fond of my "Ninja squad" (Leliana, Zevran and my PC in stealth mode) and the last slot was usually left for the mage, for practical issues...

But I loved to speak to him. I absolutely ADORE qunari philosophy.

SynneWarrior In reply to SoniaCarreras [2010-06-09 21:11:30 +0000 UTC]

Yes, the bee story is very easily triggered, its connected to why he hates mages so much. What I mean it can be triggered by party banter meaning it will pop up later at camp or any other time you speak to him under "I wanted to discuss something you've mentioned..."

I think it was "What do you have against mages?"

On the one I've never heard excpect on my evil playthorough explains WHY he hates mages and the chantry so much, His Homeland has always been invaded and oppressed by The Tevinter Imperium.

Hmmph. I can see why, as much as I adore the qunari people, I say good riddans they're philosophy is litterally a mix of mayan and old muslim philosophy.. [..oh lord this is going to sound bad... but...like the moors in 700 AD say... CONVERT THE UNBELIEVERS!!] [>o>; WE ARE BELIEVERS! Just NOT in THE WAY YOU DO!!]

SoniaCarreras In reply to SynneWarrior [2010-06-09 21:24:48 +0000 UTC]

I've read somewhere that they're inspired in the old muslim philosophy but honestly, I can't imagine what do they have in common unless they refer to the fact that women can't fight... and I live in a country which was under the muslim domination during 700 years so I know a bit about them (I usually say we were lucky to had the educated, clever moors during the dark middle ages and to make them go away when their empire started to decline, though). From the very first moment I started to talk with Sten I felt his phylosophy was a mix between old North American Indians (at least how movies depicted them: each one has his place in this world) and Japanese samurais (honor, and the sword being his soul - that is VERY samurai...)

Yeah, I've read it too... but I still can't find the points in common, at least from what I know about both cultures. The sword being your soul and dying before loosing or selling it is definitely a Samurai thing. But of course Bioware may have checked sources I have never read...

A mi me lo detectó mi hijo, y luego prestando atención, la verdad es que es lo único que se entiende, el tío dice "Sí amor?", con acento raro, eso sí, igual que Alistair a veces suelta "My love?"

Oh, it sounds really nice. Though you know, female Grey Wardens CAN have children - they just have a lesser chance to have them, but they are fertile (or so it's stated at "The Calling" novel...). But I love the idea of taking children out of Antivan whorehouses...

That would be so cute!!! Is your Rose a human or an elf? Because if she's human, her child will look human no matter his/her elven genes (or so have I read somewhere). I don't have idea how does a dwarf/elf or dwarf/human baby look like though...

After rushing to your gallery, I must say I love your Rose, specially her hair!!! And getting your last commission sounds really nice, would you save that spot for me? It would be great to see my character drawn by somebody able to make a color drawing, for a change
