I'm gonna give you a ship you've never talked about just for funsies: Leliana x Cassandra
ohh interesting 👀 thank you Olivia!! 😁
1. Why don’t you ship it?
I think… I’m honestly just not invested enough in either character. I actually don’t like Cassandra much and I’m pretty neutral on Leliana (I love her just… not enough that my brain spends a lot of time thinking about her outside of my characters/events). And when I think about them, it just feels like a work relationship/coworkers who are maybe friends more than anything else.
2. What would have made you like it?
maaaybe if I’d been able to interested in either of them in relationships outside of each other too? I’ve made 2 wardens now who were meant to romance Leliana and they always end up with somebody else (Shayla with Zevran and Malinda with Alistair) and I never got into Cassandra’s romance either. And maybe I liked Cassandra more too but idk. I feel like maybe it’s just a “there’s nothing wrong with it but it’s not for me” ship 😅
3. Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?
I can definitely see why somebody could like it! There’s a lot of potential there for a badass power couple bonding over their connection to the chantry and being high ranking officials in a major organisation trying to save the world together which is a super interesting potential dynamic 😊
