Summary
Running into Alistair from Dragon Age was not something Atrina had expected when she went to the local festival in her town with her best friend Wanda. Neither was waking up to find herself as the main character of Origins.
Aided by Wanda and with before hand knowledge of what happens, Atrina knows what she has to do. But what about when it's all over? Is it all a dream? If it isn't, will she still want to go home by the time the Landsmeet occurs? Neither Wanda nor Alistair are making the decisions before her easy. -

Summary
Somewhere, in the quiet city of Thedas, two strangers awoke from a strange dream. A dream of fire, of blighted lands, of a world centuries ago. They saw each other. As they lay in their beds unable to shake the feeling of familiarity of one another, they began doubting if it had really happened, or if they had both had just been dreaming the same bewildering dream.
Alistair Theirin and Rhia Cousland once fought as brave Grey Wardens in the blight, side by side until they reached victory and ruled over Ferelden together. Modern day, they are strangers to each other. On the North side of the city, Alistair is a detective, passionate about his job as he annoys his captain, Cullen Rutherford with his ever stubborn spirit. On the south of the city, living with her roommate Leliana, Rhia Cousland is a secretary at a private practice who spends her dull afternoons daydreaming, writing stories with her thoughts to pass the time. Their paths have never crossed, and they have gone through life unaware of the past they once shared. A chance encounter changes everything in just one afternoon...

Summary
Hawke had been acting less like his favorite companionable smartass and a whole lot more like a blushing Chantry sister. It was unusual and disconcerting and yes, okay, insanely arousing, but since he had absolutely no idea why she was acting so strangely, it was probably better to rein in the arousal just a bit, at least until he had coaxed a few answers out of her.

All diplomatic encounters can be solved if you're a dirty enough whore! It's up to you whether she gets Templars or Mages, or elves or wolves, or whatever. Bonus k!meme points for any gangbangs.

Summary
Caden Tabris never actively went looking for trouble, but it found her on her wedding day no less! A deadly encounter with a noble human sparked off a journey Caden never expected, tearing her from her family in the process. Caden must learn to trust again, battling her demons from her previous life, possibly even finding a new family if she can stop resisting her fellow Wardens attempts at kindness.
(Content Warning: there is an attempted sexual assault early on as per the city elf origin details, and it leads to some flashbacks throughout the story)
Disclaimers: BioWare owns everything, including a portion of my soul; I'm just grateful to play and write in their world. Story title comes from Brandi Carliles amazing song Hard Way Home.

Summary
“I don’t suppose you’re able to see what might let us out of here, though?” Lan Xichen asks, with just the slightest edge in his voice. “What I noticed of the array earlier suggested it’s waiting for something, but I didn’t have enough time to see what.”
Wen Ning shakes his head, then remembers himself again and says out loud, “No, nothing now. I saw that we’d tripped something when we came in, but...” The bright characters of the array that activated the trap had flared out too quickly for Wen Ning to work out how it was constructed, and he’d been more than a little distracted grappling with the yao besides. Not for the first time, he wishes he had Wei Wuxian’s memory for small details seen once. “I agree there must be a way to open it, though. This cave doesn’t feel like it wants us dead.”
A sentient fierce corpse and a sect leader walk into a cave...

Summary
Warden Alira Tabris and her trusty companions (and Morrigan) scramble to get ready for the archdemon even as their relationships grow more complicated by the day. Between the Crows, the Chantry, the Maker-forsaken blight, and the harsh winds of a Ferelden winter, even the faithful among them may not prove equal to the test.
This part is completely written. Final chapters going up on the weekend.
This fic is a continuation of my AU where the warden is a little bit psychic and has a deep personal connection to the Crows in the worst possible way.

Summary
"Alistair!" I got up from the breakfast table, heavy-bodied and clumsy. His strong arms enfolded me, mail digging into the soft skin of my arms, hauberk bumping against my belly. Smiling, I watched his eyes drink in my new shape, enjoying–at least for the moment –the pure simplicity of his gaze. For a moment, that was all we were: a husband and wife expecting their first child, lost in the miracle of the blessed event.
"I thought you would be gone another month, at least!" I chided him. "The nobles will want to see you, and the Lady Anora says there's something in her father's research that we need to see – I was going to leave tomorrow for Gwaren, but now that you're back, perhaps we should both go—"
His smile faded slightly and he drew back from me. "This isn't another attempt to marry me off to her, is it? Because, I have it on good authority from the Maker that Kings of Ferelden are only allowed the one wife, Wife. And you're not getting out of being Queen that easily."
"No. If I wanted to get out of being Queen, I'd just have you killed and abdicate." I smiled sweetly at him and picked up a piece of pastry from the table.
