Summary
After the Fade kiss, Solas has taken some time to think. Luella tries her best not to push, but he seems hell-bent on pulling her in all the same.
Each stolen peck at him deprived her of a sentence at the end, each brush against his lips or hand against his hips that rendered him quiet with the delicious flush of a ripe peach, stole something of their conversations, moved her to stay up until the small hours of the night, until both of them were too tired to navigate the clumsy ritual of parting for bedtime. She wanted to split him, multiply him, multiply herself—a pair of them could kiss forever, a pair of them could talk forever, a pair of them could finally fall silent and exist.

Summary
He tells her half-truths of the anchor and how she might close the rifts, assures Cassandra that though she is a mage, she is not capable of such extraordinary magic, and laughs genuinely when she asks if Varric is with the chantry. He makes himself fit in.
The world is fractured beyond repair, these people are little more than tranquil, and the fade is locked behind his creation. If this woman, this interrupter with the markings of the all-mother is to be the key to their salvation, so be it. He has made more from less.
---
It was never supposed to happen like this, for either of them. But it did, and everything will change because of it.

Summary
Solas doesn't need to watch the Inquisition fall to ruin, taking the world with it. He can do the right thing: undo everything. Fix all he broke, and let the Inquisitor Maxwell Trevelyan decompose.
(Or: an Unreliable Narrator Extraordinaire twists DA:I into a Time-Travel Break-It, then falls in love.)
(But: Every retelling of Orpheus & Eurydice has one thing in common.)Bookmarked by ashcelsis

Summary
An adaptation of this comic by westlywheatly. Ancient Elven 'god' falls in love because local woman snores louder than the voices in head telling him not to.
—
Even that which he could not help but loathe: her vallaslin... June’s antlers cradled her cheekbones, as they had on thousands of slaves, but.. ink in skin, all told. The woman before him, for the most part, was meaningless. Brimming with irrelevant intentions; whatever had caused her to come, in a pretense of dishabille, all tousled hair and draped cloth, clavicle—
Solas curled the fingers upon his brow bone, and sank his nails in.
Broke through. Found blood. Worsened the situation, for the most part; a raw and wailing something rolled up through his ribs, and hitched his breath—he slipped his hand down his face, made a fist against his quivering mouth, pressed a surging gasp back.
