So, approval for Varric headcanons.

-He pranks the blacksmith all the time, usually by fucking with her hammer. At this point, she just keeps a bunch of back up hammers. If nothing happens for a few days, she asks Marion whether her son is sick or something.

-He has a friendship with the blacksmith's son Laciel that consists entirely of telling him stories to satisfy his need of knowledge. Mostly myths and legends with cultural significance.

-Varric is actually decent friends with Aldric and Farrest because of all the time he spends in the woods. They aren't all that close, but there's a healthy respect there. Though Varric quite openly lusts after the both of them. (Mmmm. Rangers.)

-His and Ezra's friendship includes casual sex on occasion. Mostly they're just friends though.

-Also he and Ezra work together trying to come up with increasingly terrible dirty songs. When Varric sings them, his voice actually makes them kind of sexy. When Ezra does...well...we've seen that.
