[ If Varric was his normal dwarf self right now, he'd be shooting a smug, sly little look over at Hawke. He isn't, of course, but he still sounds a little too pleased with himself. ]

[ He's just not going to bring attention to the fact that Varric found him endearing enough to nickname him, and that it was pretty much all on Steven's own merit and not because of his relationship with Hawke. This way's easier.
The grunt he gives in response to that sounds just a touch like a growl. It isn't intentional - or at least, he thinks it isn't - but apparently that's the way his vocals work now.
He doesn't particularly like the idea of Marc holding a grudge against Hawke on principle. Not because he can't understand it, but because it's Hawke, and so Varric's pretty much automatically on his side. ]
