I've mentioned before how I wish Hawke had more time during the Night Terrors quest to talk to Justice in the Fade, but I also wish there would have been more companion-companion interaction in general, especially if both Justice and Fenris are in the party before Fenris turns on you in the encounter with the Pride demon.
Fenris: Turn your attention elsewhere, demon.
Justice: Demon? I am no demon! Why do you call me such when I am a spirit of Justice? I do not desire you as a host, and I seek no quarrel with you.
Fenris: You... You don't?
Justice: And why should I? There is an injustice in this place that needs to be addressed, and quickly. Afterwards, Anders and I shall continue our fight for mages' freedom.
Fenris: Of course you would enable him.
Justice: Do they not deserve their freedom, same as you?
Fenris: I am no mage.
Justice: Yet you have the potential to be just as dangerous.
Fenris: My abilities come from no demon.
Justice: Nor do most mages'. Tell me, do you think the average person in Thedas would not instantly label you a mage, had they judged you solely on the abilities that come from the lyrium etched into your skin? Does the risk you possibly pose to others give them the right to oppress you?
Fenris: Enough, I will not argue this.
Justice: I would gladly cut down any slaver who so much as looks in your direction. Could you say the same for Anders and I, should the templars come for us?
Fenris: I said, enough!
Hawke: Not to interrupt, but can we get back to the matter at hand?

Dorian: I'd assumed you'd go up to Weisshaupt with Hawke, Varric.
Varric: Still business to deal with here, don't you think?
Dorian: You should be thankful. I've been to Weisshaupt. It's not good. Carved into a mountain, cold, dour, everyone so bloody serious they can't take a piss... you wouldn't like it.
Varric: Hawke would be there.
Dorian: And s/he is quite the ray of sunshine, that's true

DA2 Hawke + Companion Banters - Fenris
Hawke: Your skills as a warrior are very impressive. Did you have a teacher?
Fenris: I taught myself. It was that or die.
Hawke: Many things are.
Fenris: Not your magic, though.
Hawke: Hm, no.
-
Hawke: Here. I got you a big supply of health potions. I figured you wouldn’t want me to use magic to heal you in battle.
Fenris: That’s very considerate of you, Hawke. Forgive me if I seem surprised.
Hawke: Don’t worry about it.
-
Fenris: What does your magic feel like?
Hawke: I’m not sure. It feels familiar. Strong and intense, but soft and comforting when I want it to be. Why?
Fenris: Curiosity gets the better of me, sometimes. Even about things I wish to avoid.
Hawke: That’s normal. Can you feel it, too?
Fenris: No. It does have a distinct smell, though. Like grass after rain.
-
Hawke: Thank you for helping me with the Arishok today. I’m sure I’d have made a fool out of myself without you.
Fenris: It was no trouble. I believe he has a respect for you, now.
Hawke: For me, I’m not so sure. For you? Definitely.
Fenris: A ‘growing lack of disgust’, was it? (chuckles) I’ll accept that.
-
Fenris: About your mother… you have my condolences. I’m not sure what to say - I feel like words are insufficient.
Hawke: That’s okay. Thanks.
-
Hawke: Damn it. I don’t know if I did the wisest thing, killing the Arishok.
Fenris: Wise and right don’t always go hand in hand. I know that all too well. But, objectively speaking, it was noble of you.
Hawke: Perhaps. Do you disapprove?
Fenris: I don’t. I was actually quite impressed. I don’t think many could best him in a one-on-one duel, yet you did.
Hawke: Huh!
-
Fenris: I wanted to thank you, Hawke. You’ve done a lot for me. I owe you many things.
Hawke: You owe me nothing, Fenris. I was happy to do it.
Fenris: I suppose this is what it’s like to have a friend, then?
Hawke: Indeed. And I’ll say this much - I’m lucky to have you by my side.
Fenris: As am I.
-
Hawke: We’re in deep shit.
Fenris: I’m assuming this isn’t referring to the time you searched through wyvern dung.
Hawke: (laughs)
-
Fenris: I am happy for you and Sebastian. He told me the good news.
Hawke: Thank you, Fenris! Oh, take this.
Fenris: An invitation? I shall be there, I promise.
Hawke: Excellent!
-
Fenris: Things are getting more tense over here.
Hawke: It’s gone beyond tense. We’re reaching boiling point. I don’t know if I can fix this place, Fenris.
Fenris: I think it’s enough that you would try.
Hawke: Trying is not doing. And this whole Orsino-Meredith spat is getting dangerous. Well, it’s not a spat. But I need to joke about these things or I’ll start vehemently sobbing. This is only going to get worse, isn’t it?
Fenris: Yes.

I'm sorry but WHAT. Has anyone ever explained WHAT a Ben-Hassrath spy was doing in the capital of the Tevinter Imperium in the middle of a very long war between their people? I thought Bull spent most of a decade on Seheron before being assigned to Orlais, but from this exchange it sounds like he was in Minrathous long enough to know the city well and frequent the same areas and businesses, meaning he wasn't just passing through.
Like even if he was undercover as Tal-Vashoth during his Chargers phase (which, unlikely as Krem is kind of an outlaw from the Imperium) that's gotta raise red flags with the locals, right?? Did I miss some lore or backstory that explains this?
UNLESS. Maybe it's not true. Bull could simply be using knowledge of the Tevinter capital gained from his intelligence reports to get an "in" with Dorian. Now that I'm reading it again, he never said he'd been there himself. Not strictly lying, I guess, but he certainly could be being deceptive here to buddy up to Dorian like he does with other companions before his personal quest.

banter just because >)
...
Bethany:   You two are the absolute worst.
Varric:  What do you mean, Sunshine?
Bethany: If anyone offends you, even the slightest bit, you hold onto the grudge far beyond what any reasonable person would.
Varric: Hey, I try to be forgiving.
Bethany: No.  You hold grudges for my sister, and she holds grudges for you.  You two never forgive anyone who offends the other.  You’re vengeful, protective monsters.
Varric: Now that’s not fair.
Bethany:  No?  So you’re just torturing Sebastian because my sister wants you to?
Varric: (Laughs.) I’m sorry, are you sticking up for him?
Bethany:  She forgave him.  You’re bullying the Prince of Starkhaven, to the detriment of your entire city, because he once broke your wife’s heart.
Varric:  Here’s a thought, maybe he shouldn’t be so easy to bully.
Bethany: I can’t believe we ever thought you two weren’t in love with each other.
Varric:  Just to prove you wrong, I’m not going to give him the wobbly chair at the Tourney feast.
Bethany: Yes you are!
Varric: Well, someone has to take it.

hmm.. what companions do you think had the best banter? Personally I like the party between Anders, Merrill, and Fenris because it only took one, “Mage”, for the dam to break..

Since y'all seemed to like the last Fenris & Justice banter, have another that came to mind.
Justice: You would think that you and Anders would see eye to eye more often, rather than fighting amongst yourselves.
Fenris: Are you speaking to me again? I thought we agreed not to talk to each other.
Justice: I made no such agreement.
Fenris: *sighs*
Justice: It is hard to communicate to Anders when he is in the waking world with the rest of you, especially since his past fills him with so much anger and pain. Rightfully so.
Fenris: Is there a point to this mindless prattle?
Justice: You would do well to learn from each other. You are at different points in your respective journeys, but you want the same things. You want your oppressors to suffer, yes, but you both want the systems that put them in power to crumble. You want others like yourselves to be able to live free with the promise of a better future. Without fear of being hunted.
Fenris: ...
Justice: Or am I wrong?
Fenris: I preferred you when you were silent, demon.
Justice: Must I always tell you? I am no demon!

DA2 Hawke + Companion Banters - Aveline
Hawke: You were at Ostagar. Did you see the king?
Aveline: Yes. My company was part of the first charge in the battle.
Hawke: What was he like?
Aveline: He was young.
Hawke: Young. That means you think he was foolish.
Aveline: Perhaps.
-
Aveline: Hawke. You’re staring.
Hawke: Just trying to imagine you getting married. It’s harder than it looks.
Aveline: Are you trying to be rude on purpose?
Hawke: What? No! You’ll know if I’m trying to be rude to you, I promise.
-
Aveline: Trouble seems to follow you and your brother.
Hawke: You’re the one who barred his application to the guard. Maybe if you gave him a job, he wouldn’t be doing troublesome things with me.
Aveline: I don’t believe it’s in his best interests to become a guard.
Hawke: Don’t do that. You don’t get to decide that for him.
Aveline: I look out for my friends. That’s all.
Hawke: Maybe you should stop.
-
Aveline: Still intent on Bartrand’s expedition?
Hawke: Yes, ma’am. I just love the idea of spending weeks underground with danger at every corner. It’s going to be so fun.
Aveline: Do you take anything seriously?
Hawke: No, ma’am.
-
Hawke: I get on your nerves.
Aveline: I try not to make it obvious.
Hawke: Try harder.
-
Hawke: Guard Captain.
Aveline: Champion.
Hawke: Asshole.
Aveline: Excuse me?
Hawke: Nothing! I just thought we were listing each other’s titles.
-
Aveline: You make my job a lot harder, Hawke.
Hawke: You’re implying you’re actually doing your job.
Aveline: I am doing my job. Why would you ever think otherwise?
Hawke: I don't know. I mean, I think my mother’s headless corpse is a good indicator.
-
Aveline: That wasn’t funny. I adored your mother.
Hawke: Yet you can't seem to accept responsibility for her dying.
Aveline: Because I wasn't at fault. I get it, Hawke. You’re lashing out at me because you blame yourself. I’m sorry.
Hawke: I don’t blame myself, actually. You have three guesses as to who I do blame.
-
Aveline: How’s that bruise?
Hawke: How’s your hand? Fancy breaking it on my cheekbone again?
Aveline: Hawke.
Hawke: Aveliiiine.
-
Aveline: When I came here, I thought I found a friend in you. I was wrong.
Hawke: Glad we’re on the same page.

Naomi Hawke- Banter
I haven’t done one of these in a long time.  This is only partially done, I want to do 2 for each companion at least (if someone asks for more there will be more >.>).  But this was fun and I love it and you couldn’t stop me from doing more.
I wanted to tag ppl to do some but I thought maybe people wouldn’t be interested; if you think I’m wrong, let me know and next post I will tag you! (maybe with an OC x Character so it’s not so broad)
...
Dorian and Hawke
Dorian:  Champion, if I may?
Hawke:  What do you need, Mustache?
Dorian:  Oh no.  You do it too?
Hawke:  No, I forgot your name.  What do you need?
Dorian: It was- never mind.  I’ve been reading Varric’s book about you…
Hawke:  Let me guess.  Something is implausible.
Dorian:  Well, yes, but I was more wondering about the rather jarringly placed sex scene in the middle.  He says you gave permission.
Hawke:  Permission?  Oh, no.  We insisted.
Dorian:  Really.
Hawke:  Isabela made me draw diagrams for him, it was really detailed.  If you’re curious, I can try a reproduction tonight when we make camp.
Dorian:  I suddenly regret asking.
...
Dorian:  So you’re an artist?
Hawke:  With a blade.  In bed.  Also…on paper, yes.
Dorian:  Hmmh.  What’s your medium of choice?
Hawke:  Generally whatever’s close to hand.  I mostly draw plants.
Dorian:  Ah, so no dashing formal portraiture, then?
Hawke:  No.  I do draw all of Varric’s author portraits, though.  No matter how many times he asks me to stop.
...
Hawke and Cole
Cole:  Soft pink flowers on the pillow.  Her cheeks are red.  So hot.  She’s still not breathing.  Mother, where are you?
Hawke:  Is this normal?
Varric:  You get used to it.  Sorry.  Kid, maybe that’s not a great idea.
Cole:  Crying and wheezing.  Little flowers in the hot, hot water, little red cheeks.  She’s so heavy, but no one is coming.  No one ever comes.  If she dies, is it your fault?
Hawke:  I don’t like this.
Varric:  He means well.  I think.
Cole:  Why can’t she breathe?
Hawke:  It’s called croup.  She didn’t die.  Even though once I almost dropped her in the pot and made Bethany soup.
...
Cole:  You kill people before they know they’re dead!
Hawke:  They figure it out eventually.
Cole:  I didn’t know leaves could do that!
...
Hawke and Blackwall
Hawke:  So.  Blackthorn.
Blackwall:  Yes, my Lady?
Hawke: (Sighs.)
Blackwall:  …did I say something wrong?
Varric:  Don’t worry about it.  She wanted you to correct her.
Blackwall:  Why?
Hawke:  The joke is ruined now, and it doesn’t matter!
Varric: She was going to say she wanted to climb you like a tree.
Hawke: Thanks, Varric, you always make it slightly worse.
Varric: Happy to help.
...
Blackwall:  What was in that bottle you pulled out last night?
Hawke:  Amell Reserve Darktown Absinthe.
Blackwall:  I haven’t been drunk like that since I was first in my cups.
Hawke:  Thanks!  I make it myself.
Blackwall:  Don’t you brew poisons?
Hawke:  There’s more overlap than you’d think.  
...
Hawke and Varric
Varric: So.
Hawke:  Oh Maker, that voice.  Just come out with it.
Varric:  Sebastian tried to invade Kirkwall.
Hawke:  (Laughs.)  Of course he did.  Maybe after this I’ll pay a visit to Starkhaven.  Get a job in the kitchen.
Varric:  You could try diplomacy before poisoning your ex-boyfriend.
Hawke:  What happened to you?
...
Varric:  You okay?
Hawke:  If I said yes, would you believe me?
Varric:  Mmh, no.  I only ask to gauge how not okay you are.
Hawke:  We made the right choice, didn’t we?
Varric: We made a choice.
Hawke:  (Sighs.)  Right.
Varric:  We’re still here.  That’s gotta count for something.  Plus, I’ve got some candied chestnuts somewhere in the bottom of my pack.  Probably sticky, but it’s better than nothing.
Hawke:  I’d kiss you, but that stubble would chafe me.
Varric:  I haven’t heard any complaints.
Hawke:  Maker, you make the jokes so easy.
Varric:  That’s what I do, Hawke.  I set ‘em up, and you knock ‘em down.
Hawke:  Such a good wingman.
...
Hawke and Cassandra
Cassandra:  Champion.
Hawke:  You could call me Hawke.  Usually girls who look at me like that go for a more personal touch.
Cassandra:  I…what?
Hawke:  What is it?
Cassandra:  I was simply wondering if you would allow some questions.  In regards to Varric’s book.
Hawke:  Sure.  Everything’s exaggerated except for how good I am in bed, and how much of an infected gash-wound Petrice was.
Varric: (Laughs.)  She was the worst!
