OMG! Anders is a T-Rex?! Damn, you just ruined it for me - I'm going to cancel my order now! ;)

(I'm just jealous cos we don't get it in Europe until 11th *sobs* )

Anders is secretly a T-Rex, and the final showdown is a mini-golf tournament. Anders can't compete because his arms are too short, so make sure he's not in your party!

(Ugh, that's so far away, bby!)

LOL. Glad to oblige! That was actually based on a recurring nightmare that I have. My arms are too short, and I don't have thumbs. And everyone is watching. Eventually I get frustrated, destroy the course accidentally with my tail, and then eat the judges.

Oh man, you should have seen me in Origins. That one sequence where you have to choose who rescues you? I didn't know it was party selection. So I was like: Wynne loves me! So does Dog!

Lo and behold. The old woman and the pooch had to rescue me. It took seriously... like an hour for me to get a strategy with those two.

Just OOC...

I've stayed *reasonably* spoiler free just in that, you know, free time is limited, but was yelled at for mentioning that *gasp* Anders was in the game at all (far less that he's a potential LI). How de-spoilery are we expected to be? (I mean, theoretically, even the "good" example was a bit spoilery.)

I should say that anything that is freely available as info on the official site is not a spoiler. Anders being in the game is public knowledge, so whoever yelled at you was being an idiot.

Oh good. I didn't think that was *too* spoilery. But, you know, better safe. I really don't want to ruin's someone game play. But at the same time, there's the eternal problem of if I mark things as "DA2 spoilers! Don't read!" on everything, it's very hard for people to have a clue what I'm writing about. While, alternately, I can see how writing (and I'm making this up as I haven't played the game) "How did you feel about Anders and Nathaniel totally making out in Kirkwall??!!!!!!" as a header would be kind of...super spoilery.

Well, in this instance- the game is known to take place primarily in Kirkwall. If you wrote a fic with Anders and Nathaniel having riproaring sex with a Qunari in Kirkwall, you are permitted to say something like:

Potential Anders spoilers in Kirkwall.

But yeah, like you said: Anders totally robbed a bank, saved a baby from a burning donkey cart, and then made passionate love to my PC, anyone else do this?

Super spoilery.

Good points though, thanks for bringing it up!
