    Summary

    It's up to you to decide: follow the flow of Destiny and be swallowed by its waters, or fight the current and carve your own path.

    ***
    Songs of valor, melodies of sacrifice and loss: this is a hero’s eventual reward. To be a savior is to be become broken, a doll those in power will hide behind for their own ends as the ones who bled for them become tainted and ultimately forgotten once their duty is done.

    Akira knows this lesson well, and how such a life inevitably ends for so called ‘heroes’. Haunted and alone, no longer simply human in the eyes of those they strove so hard to protect. Will she allow herself to become as all who came before –a sword and shield without dreams of a future; or will she fight against the forces of Thedas determined to destroy the last vestiges of light Akira has struggled so stubbornly to save?

    Summary

    There, in that dull reflection that was once a doorway to a world beyond, my mismatched eyes were accompanied by two familiar ones. Their colour was that of a storm; ice and rain and sea-grey, and a glimmer of violet, like lightning.

    They stared at mine with such expectation. With hope. With longing.
    We belonged in this space—this world. Together.
    If only those eyes could see what I saw.

    ***

    After her death, Saeris wakes in Thedas, marked by a curse she does not understand.

    From the Blessed Age to the Dragon Age, she follows the echoes of a truth that refuses to stay buried, learning that some myths were built to hide atrocities, and some rebellions were never finished. Love grows where it should not: slow, dangerous, and doomed from the start.

    The price of knowing is steep.
    The price of love is worse.
    And if Saeris uncovers the whole truth, Thedas may not survive it.

    Summary

    Playing as a character and making your choices from behind a screen is completely different from being a part of a world where the knowledge you have and the choices you make can determine an entire world's future.

    When the newly renamed Athena finds herself walking out of the Fade and into Thedas proper she must contend with the fact that, although she only knew this world and these people as a story within a game, her new abilities and foresight can change the course of events and therefore the story itself. The only question now is, what will she choose to change and how will this new story unfold?

    Summary

    She wakes up in another world, completely different, but utterly familiar. She knows the people, she knows what's going to happen, but she's on the wrong side of the screen and doesn't know if any of it is real. Finding out she's now an elf, doesn't really help either.

    She's afraid to get too close to anyone, afraid to wake up and lose it all, but to survive she needs their help and she's going to do whatever she can to make sure they all get through it together.

    And then there's him. That tall bald elf who can make a lesson on magical theory more captivating than (most) cute cat videos. Will he just leave again in the end? She can't help hoping there's some way to get him to change his plans....

    Cake might help.

    Summary

    “Dread Wolf take me from behind, what a day,” she sighed, half collapsing onto the log bench shoved in front of the campfire.
    Solas spluttered, inhaling his spoonful of stew instead of swallowing. He coughed harshly to dislodge the pesky piece of carrot lodged in his windpipe while Selene patted him helpfully on the back.
    The tips of his ears burned a fetching bright red, paired with a bloom across both cheeks, but whether that was from her words or his near choking was anyone's guess.
    “That is a…unique curse, lethallan,” he eventually got out.
    “Thank you. You should try it sometime,” she said evenly.

     

    When Selene Lavellan finds herself inexplicably back at the beginning of her journey as Inquistior, she is determined to make better choices. And if one of those choices is to start harassing Solas relentlessly until he blushed like a maiden, that was her prerogative.

    Only she may not be prepared for the consequences of her actions, when the teasing gets too much.

    Summary

    “But you didn’t,” Rook cuts in, and Morinne takes a steadying sip of her wine. “I mean, you were never one of his agents, you never joined him.”

    I wanted to, I tried, I sought him out to join even years later, Morinne thinks, but bites her tongue. No one wants to hear how the heroic Inquisitor, legend of the long gone Inquisition, left the world to burn in the name of love.

    “No, it was always a bit more complicated than that.”

    ---

    It hurt for ten years. It doesn't have to for much longer. The ritual goes wrong, blights threaten the world, and still, love remains.

    A continuation of Requited, connected to Letters We Should've Sent, but no spoilers for either - this fic stands on its own and is intended to see the love story through to its end in the Fade.

    Summary

    “Know what, Solas? I’m adding impossible know-it-all to the list of things the Dread Wolf stories left out.”

    “Did you really trick the Evanuris and the Forgotten Ones into the Beyond, or did you just talk at them for so long that they all mutually agreed to lock themselves in a very big room and wait until you’d left?”
    __

    Solas wakes from uthenara and is injured in the form of a wolf. When Athera rescues him, she has no idea she'll come to love her people's greatest enemy. But when her world collides with the Dread Wolf's plans, who can predict what will happen?

    Summary

    *Sequel to The Wolf Wakes*

    _

    "You look like shit, Chuckles.”

    Solas’ lips twitch, just slightly, and in the dim light he raises his head and looks Varric in the eye.

    “Is that how you would introduce me, were I a character in one of your books? I’m curious. If you were writing me into being, what words would you choose?”

    __

    After losing Athera and giving his orb to Corypheus, Solas has no choice but to join the fledgling Inquisition and try to make things right. But with a nosy dwarf and an even nosier spy master knowing far more of him than they should, this time everything is different. A wolf without a pack is vulnerable, and Solas is in no state to play games.

    Now updated with art by @yolebrat and @CourtneyCranberry!

    Summary

    After her discharge from the Alliance, Commander Helen Trevelyan joined the Andromeda Initiative, wanting to leave her personal tragedies and a psycho ex-boyfriend behind her. She expected to sleep for 600 years, and wake up in a med bay. Instead, she crash-landed on a snow-covered mountain, ten-thousand years later. She is alone, confused, and dying from eezo radiation. And the only sign of civilization is an old church in the distance.

    A Post-Modern Girl on Thedas fic.

    Many, many thanks to my betas, Dreadlordcherrycake and Duinemerwen, who have advised me on all matters of lore, plausibility and verb tense. If it wasn't for them, this story would still be in cryo. Any mistakes are mine, not theirs.

    I have a regular work schedule IRL, which means I don't have a regular update schedule on AO3. This story is visually supported.

    Summary

    “Creators,” she breathes, biting back a whimper.

    “Why do you call for them?” Solas inquires, gently didactic, reasonable. His voice is in that paradoxical place between liquid smooth and darkly rough. The tongue of disaster is honeyed. “They cannot hear.”

    *** Some of you may notice that I have been going through and cleaning up the chapters, so the flow and tense is more consistent. Enjoy the changes. ***
    "There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good Pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad Pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance." -John C. Maxwell

    Thirty-two-year-old artist, Breeyanna Grant finds herself thrust into a game she barely remembers, except for one thing - she remembers that Solas is Fen'Harel, and that he wasn't here to help.
    Finding herself suddenly stuck in this strange world by an unknown, she must now find a way to live through Thedas' 'boot camp' and save everyone from the Dread Wolf.
