* ForWantOfANail: WordOfGod is that they will definitely be doing this since Shisui is that much of an OutsideContextProblem and unlikely to follow the canon choices. Though, it's not really obvious right now due to the story still being in the early stages.
** First of all, Shisui ''immediately'' pegs Solas as more dangerous than he wants to appear and his Sharingan allows him to notice that Solas' chakra is the same as the one in the Breach and the Anchor. And he doesn't waste time confronting the elf about this, too.
** Secondly, when Solas tries to snoop in his mind during a dream, Shisui traps him there using his genjutsu training and could have easily ''killed'' him, but decided otherwise in the end. Though, he still used the opportunity to steal quite a lot of knowledge from Solas' mind.
** [[spoiler:Another big nail comes in when the squad decides to take a short-cut down a mountain and ends up in Redcliffe right before Alexius makes his move. As a result it's '''Solas''' who ends up in the future alongside Shisui, and the prisoners include not only members of Inquisition but also Dorian and Iron Bull. And Shisui brings back much more actionable intel than what the Herald got in canon.]]

* ThereIsOnlyOneBed: Subverted. There is enough room for everyone to have their own ''room'' but Leliana and Josephine still share a bed in Haven because it's that damn cold. At one point they consider moving in with Minaeve since she has a room right next to the kitchens, which is the warmest room in the Chantry.

* YourNormalIsOurTaboo: Summoning and using your own blood for jutsu is considered pretty normal for the Elemental Nations, and Shisui has no problems with doing both. In Thedas, only Tevinter actually allows for them and it's still badly viewed.
