She was almost painfully earnest, and it wouldn’t hurt that her face was pretty enough to make his hapless young lieutenant stammer and drop things. Hopefully he’d refrain from doing so in the middle of battle.

I laughed irl. I play my f!Amell the same way, and now I'm going to have this running in my head every time I start a new playthrough.

I thought the whole thing was tightly written and the ending was playful and fun. Poor Templars; they spend so much time being chaste and then it just gets rubbed in their faces.

Ok, I loved this. Now I kind of want to see all the origin stories from Duncan's perspective! But this one was especially neat given how you were able to work in the events of The Calling.

And the last line made me LOL.

hah, I second that! Origins from Duncan's perspective would be awesome. Can someone please pick this up and run with it? If they're all as well written as this one, it'll be a pleasure.

I really, really loved Greagoir in this, strangely -- he was my favorite part. So cranky. "WE SENT A ZILLION TEMPLARS TO HELP ALL THOSE MAGES IN YOUR FRIGGING WAR. SO NO. GO AWAY." Perfect voice, for all that he spoke like, two lines in this piece XD well done, OP.

I love it when Duncan gets the spotlight (and the action, dude is foxy for an older gent).

“And for Andraste’s sake,” Greagoir muttered as he closed the door behind him, “wear pants.”

OMG. This made me literally lol! Thank you so much! I'm a total sucker for mages, so the fic is even MORE perfect for that ^^ I love it! It has assuaged my freshly-renewed "Nooooooo, Duncan can't be dead because he is too awesome" sadness from starting (yet another) PT. I don't know what it is, but Seneschal Varel and Duncan are like this odd sort of crack to me. Zev and Alistair make my heart go pitty-pat, but those two are just teh BAMF in that quiet way. Maybe it's the sage advice or their voices, but yeah. Totally want them in DA2.

DUNCAN SEXYTIMES!

(ehem)

It's so refreshing to see another side of Duncan other than being serious Grey Warden and father figure to orphan boys. And yes, Duncan Sexytimes make it even better.
