I'm definitely a butthurt f!Surana fan, I won't lie. XD; I never even thought of f!Cousland/Anora, that actually intrigues the hell out of me now that I consider it. I just love the notion of Anora involved in any kind of femslash tbh. I generally explain Anora/Cauthrien to people as: "omg can you believe this jackass I'm married to, I can't even handle this arsegravy right now, I have taxes to levy" "no, no I can't, s'ok babe, come here I'll make it better" *snog* Grossly simplifying but, basically.
I love any sort of polyshipping involving Zev and Leliana, though, just on the grounds it's adorable. I'll spare you my ranting about the enforced monogamy in the games, but suffice it to say it pisses me off considering the characters themselves seem like they're poly friendly. And I totally grok what you're saying about Aveline, because I don't think she'd be anything but monogamous either, but it just strikes me as weird that it never even occurs to people given the amount of "slapslapkiss" chemistry she has with Isabela. I mean, she doesn't *have* to end up with Donnic, you know? At least it only strikes me as "weird", when my brain doesn't go to that sad, ragey place of "Aveline's not conventionally pretty and people never want to ship women like that, much less with the sexbomb women". tl;dr: these games are so queer and so full of strong awesome women, where is my femslash? It's not like we have the "lol ~agency~" excuse.
