    Summary

    It's Hawke's seventh year in Kirkwall. He's earned his place in Hightown. He's a powerful spirit healer and weaver of the Fade. Singlehandedly beating the Arishok in mortal combat has earned him the title of Champion. The fate of an entire city-state is quickly falling into his hands as the conflict between the mages and templars comes to a head, and he can't afford to falter, no matter how he feels about everything.

    Amidst all this chaos, he forgets something important: a traumatized mage is a demon's favourite prey.

    ---

    In which the gang gets along for once, Hawke learns to ask for help, and it turns out Justice doesn't hate him, actually.

    Summary

    A retelling of Dragon Age 2 from several viewpoints, framed between chunks of Cassandra's interrogation of Varric, with uh... two pretty significant shake-ups that I won't spoil here.

    Smut level: Super-low. Gonna be real up front about that. Spice-lovers will be disappointed.
    What you will find: yearning, adventure, healing and rebuilding. A circle of broken people who pull themselves and each other back together. Also, hopefully, some pretty fun fantasy fights and adventuring and mystery-solving? It was fun to write, at least!
    Oh and there are a LOT of adoptions. Adopted kids, adopted siblings, adopted grannies, we're all over the place here. This isn't just Found Family, this is deep-dug-foundation, brick-by-brick, Built Family.
    Writing again as of July 2025

    Summary

    She took the gathering storm, trapped its fury in golden limbs, and strung it with the screams of the south wind. Andruil, blood and force, your people pray to you. Grant that your eye may not fall upon us. Spare us the moment we become Your prey.

    She shook the radiance of the stars, divided them into grains of light, then stored them in a shaft of gold. Andruil, blood and force, save us from the time this weapon is thrown. Your people pray to You. Spare us the moment we become Your sacrifice.

    Summary

    Kahlia began whistling well in advance of where their map indicated the clan was located, and kept walking as she did, an excited bounce in her step. Zevran followed and waited for whatever she was summoning. Bird calls flowed from her lips, answered from the trees over and over, to the point that Zevran was uncertain how many of the calls were real birds and how many were elves passing news. By the time they reached the flat area halfway up Sundermount where the clan was camped, it seemed like the entire clan was there to greet them. The cheers were loud, boisterous, and the clan all but swallowed Kahlia into their midst as she laughed. Calls of her name, various Elvhen affectionate nicknames, and welcome flowed over the crowd in waves. Elves jumped and danced, an ocean of excitement, until the chaos suddenly coalesced into one united intent. A song flowed through the crowd, the words unknown to Zevran but joyous, the clan all holding each other, many of them freely crying in joy, laughter interrupting the song as the people simply couldn’t contain their feelings.

    Summary

    All Carver knew was that his soul-mark would exactly match that of a soulmate; and that the identical symbol on their flesh represented both him and them. Either way, it didn’t matter: there was a war to fight; and the soul-mark still etched on his skin meant whoever had its twin was still alive, or Carver’s own mark would have faded.

    He didn’t want to think about how his soulmate might feel if their mark ever faded.

    So Carver got the mabari tattooed over it—something that made his soul-mark look like nothing more than kaddis war-paint on a war-hound—and tried to forget about it.


    Soulmate AU. Templars and blood mages are mortal enemies—but what if one is the other’s soulmate?
