In DA2 companions form relationships not only with Hawke, but also with each other. Fenris and Anders, Fenris and Merrill, Anders and Carver are apparently rivals. Isabela and Merrill, Varric and Anders, Varric and Merrill, Isabela and Varric are friends. Isabela and Aveline start as rivals but end up as friends. Fenris and Isabela, Bethany and Sebastian, Merrill and Carver are romantically involved with each other if not in romance with Hawke. Etc. However the articles either fail to mention this at all, or occasionally mention some of the relationships in the involvement section/as trivia. May be we could add a section to each article to cover companion interactions? Either a separate one or within "Involvement". Any ideas? Asherinka (talk) 18:13, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
- It's been discussed and was concluded that it would not be included since it comes down to personal opinions. --D. (talk · contr) 18:22, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
Just a minor corection, Carver is never in a romantic relationship with Merrill, he has a crush on her but its completely one sided, she never responds to it. Besides, since Carver either dies, joins the grey wardens or joins the templars that would keep him from beeing able to have a relationship with anyone. I think the same goes for Bethany and Sebastian but Im not sure since I never got the exiled prince.Blighter (talk) 20:17, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, what about their banter in MotA then? This one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=HJD6VzeHNRY#t=505s. I'm pretty sure it hints that Merrill might respond to his feelings)
- This one for Bethany and Sebastian: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=HJD6VzeHNRY#t=488s Asherinka (talk) 20:24, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
- I wouldn't say it is even hinted at. At best, Merrill knows, but it doesn't mean she has any feelings for Carver, nor does Sebastian for Bethany. He simply smiles. In my opinion, they think the sibling is acting cute... but again, personal opinions. --D. (talk · contr) 23:49, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, sure. But I've added the first link to trivia sections just in case. Few people get it since you need to bring both Merrill and Carver with you, I believe it deserves mentioning.
- As for B and S, there are also dialogues in Legacy:
- Bethany: If there's something good or beautiful in any of this, please, enlighten me.
- Sebastian: Well, there's you.
- Bethany: I... oh my.
- Hawke: (Chuckles)
- or
- Sebastian: You were made as you are. I have yet to see evidence of the Maker's fallibility. I certainly don't see any in you.
- Bethany: I... oh my.
- Hawke: (Chuckles)
- and this line in MotA if Hawke is in romance with S:
- Bethany: Sister, you lucky bitch.
- The intonation is priceless :) Asherinka (talk) 05:40, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

- We already document all dialogues between companions though (Category:Dragon Age II dialogues), so if people want to see what they are missing, it's there. They may not be complete, but they're fairly throughout. Including them as trivia goes against consensus decided in a previous discussion. --D. (talk · contr) 16:46, January 28, 2012 (UTC)
I just LOVE how every clip in that video looks exactly the same except one. ----Isolationistmagi 22:37, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
- May be it is because you get only one of these clips per a playthrough depending on which two companions you chose for MotA? ;) It's pretty impressive in fact, they had to record 9 minutes of dialogue when a player only hears ~20 seconds of it. Asherinka (talk) 22:41, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
- True, and I'll give them that, but still... ----Isolationistmagi 23:23, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
People... Are you actually being serious here? Calling Carver's half-arsed attempts at flirting, which Merrill never understands (who would?) and Isabela's occasional sex with Fenris, which is only skin-deep (as always with Izzy) a romantical involvement? C'mon, this is not a soap opera. The only romance between companions is Varric and Bianca. Period. -Algol- (talk) 09:46, January 28, 2012 (UTC)
- Dude. DA2 is a soap opera! :-) Dorquemada (talk) 12:26, January 28, 2012 (UTC)
