Summary
They fought. They argued. But there were quiet moments too, and it wouldn't take long for Solas to start telling Rook of the beauty of the old world restored, like he hadn't torn a fresh wound into Thedas in a failed effort to heal the old; like he could convince Rook that Thedas wasn’t bleeding.
Solas successfully tears down the Veil. He and Rook talk about it in the Lighthouse.

He drew stars around my scars by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

Summary
“Solas,” he greeted, his voice soft and tired. “Is this your doing?”
Solas’ mouth thinned slightly, perhaps annoyed. Something he often was around Rook. “It is something I facilitated. Your mind is weary, and it cannot remain so if you’re to succeed.”
“Oh,” said Rook, which wasn’t the most articulate response, but Solas couldn't expect too much from him at the moment. “I’m handling it fine, you know, the- everything.”
“I can see that,” said Solas, tone dry.
Rook can't sleep, and Solas facilitates a solution, which spirals into more.

Summary
Rook’s face flared red at the suggestion he had done this deliberately. “It’s not like I knew trying to call in would bring you here. I just wanted to ask if you knew how to get out, so I can get back to cleaning up your mess.”
“My mess-?” Solas' eyes narrowed, and then, slowly, he smiled. “I will kindly impart my wisdom, in that case. The path to progress is participation.”
“Ah,” said Rook articulately. He could have guessed as much, but he’d hoped for a different solution. “So I have to...?”
“Lie with the individual at the centre of this memory,” Solas clarified.
“Right,” said Rook, then he gasped. “Wait, hang on-”
“You poked your nose into places you are not welcome, without considering the consequences, as is your wont,” said Solas, a touch sardonic. “This is the result. Are you pleased with yourself, Rook?”
Rook falls into another of Solas' memories. (Un)fortunately, so does Solas.

Wolf Teeth by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

Summary
Solas didn’t dignify this with a response. He wrenched off Rook's chest plate with such force that it slipped out of his hands and skidded across the island, landing with a thud among some debris. The armour underneath might as well have been tissue paper for how little resistance it offered Solas’ tearing hands. Rook furiously slammed a fist into Solas' face, blood erupting over his knuckles, and Solas seized him by the hair and smashed his head into the ground so hard that his vision swirled white and red.
“Enough, Rook.” Solas bared his teeth, blood staining them pink. “Fighting will only exacerbate the bleeding.”
Solas and Rook fall into the prison, angry and violent and wanting.

Wicked by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

Summary
“You have to be cheating,” he said, bottom lip protruding in a little pout. As far as he could tell, Solas brought it completely; he did seem to think himself the smartest person in the room at any given moment.
“That is one of the tenets of the game, I believe,” said Solas. He shuffled the deck this time and dealt them five cards each.
“It is? No wonder Varric kept beating me.”
Solas is physically present in the Lighthouse, constrained to the meditation room. Rook and Solas play a game to pass the time.

Summary
Solas regarded him with bemusement from his chair next to the aquarium wall. “You are unwell,” he observed.
“No shit,” muttered Rook into the lounge cushions. He turned onto his side and groped for his thin, ratty blanket, pulling it over himself to ease the cold flush that had overtaken him. “Bellara and Neve are getting me a cure.”
Rook falls ill. Solas takes care of him while his team arranges treatment.

The Painting by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

22 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
Solas leaned forward slightly, eyes closed, and exhaled like he was trying to expel his own lungs. The whole display made Rook feel a little self-conscious, which might have been the point.
“Are you aware of the purpose of this painting?” he asked.
Rook purchases a strange-looking painting from the Crossroads marketplace. Solas helpfully informs him of its contents and purpose.

Summary
The line of Solas’ mouth tightened ever so slightly. “Does lashing out at me make you feel better, Rook? Does it make it hurt less?”
Rook ground his teeth, because if he didn’t grind them he was going to do something far more embarrassing. “Yeah, it does, actually. Only one person in this room is an unmitigated disaster, and it isn’t me.”
“Then, by all means, lash out. Perhaps the catharsis of it will let you sleep tonight instead of tossing and turning in the well of your regrets.”
"What the hell do you want from me?" Rook asked, paper wrinkling under his fingers. He was damaging the book and he didn't care. "I'm doing all of this, taking all your advice, regardless of how I feel. Isn't that enough?"
After Weisshaupt, Rook is on the precipice of a breakdown. Solas decides to help.

The Cage by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

07 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
He shuddered and sat back on his haunches. It felt like a personal touch, a cage designed just for him.
The room smelt vaguely damp and gritty. There was a hole in the floor to serve as waste disposal. The walls gleamed sickly under the overhead light. On the far wall of his cell, he noticed another room, seamlessly attached but separated from his by eight long, metal bars, too light and smooth to be made of the same material as the box. Venturing a little closer, he realized he wasn’t alone. Hunched over in the dark, taking in deep, shuddering breaths, was Solas. He’d been stripped of everything but his leathers and his clothes were oddly bare without the pauldrons and chest plate.
“Solas,” he whispered.
Elgar'nan captures Rook and Solas with the intention of making them ruin each other. His plans don't go as smoothly as he would like.

Eyes like lamplights by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

Summary
The sound of footsteps jarred Rook from a half-doze. There was only one person they could belong to.
They were coming in Rook's direction, and the realisation sent a visceral chill through him. He clapped a hand over his mouth and pressed his cheek to the rough brickwork, looking through a gap in the wall that was just large enough for him to see light gleaming off of Solas' familiar gold greaves.
If Rook stops moving, Solas will find him.

Warmth by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

Summary
Rook sat up and frowned at Solas until Solas acknowledged him with a sigh. While he didn’t look away from his book, he did speak.
“What is it, Rook?”
“Make the room warmer,” he said, since Solas did have dominion over the room.
Solas did look up, then. But all he said was, “No.”
The weather in the Lighthouse has turned frigid, so Rook seeks warmth from Solas. And gets more than he bargained for.

Domesticated by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

Tags
Summary
He took a few stumbling steps forward while the roughly boat-sized Solas prowled around him, his movements sleek and sure. He wasn’t so large that he was able to tip the foundation they were on, but he did shake it with every step. Rook’s tail wagged when Solas nosed the dome of his head with his cool, wet nose, giving him a sniff, and while Rook didn’t quite understand what compelled him to do it, it was oddly pleasing.
Solas attempts to teach Rook how to transform into a wolf, which goes hilariously wrong. Teasing ensues.

Summary
“I hear a distinct lack of celebration from your companions,” said Solas, nose still buried in his book. “I take it retrieval of the artifact did not go well?”
“Not exactly,” said Rook, self-consciously scratching his nape.
“Elaborate,” said Solas.
Rook fails a mission after neglecting Solas' advice. Solas knows exactly what he needs to both deal with his guilt and ensure he listens to Solas in the future.

Summary
“If it would please you, I could bring someone to keep you company.”
Rook picked at the fabric of his trousers. As much as he wanted to keep being stubborn, he was lonely. It would be nice to have someone other than his captor to speak to. “Would they mind? This place isn’t very lively right now.”
“I’m sure they won’t,” said Solas, and that was that.
Rook will see the old world, in time. Solas will make sure of it.

Summary
Solas was quiet for a time. “Well then,” he said, finally. “It seems there is only one available solution.”
Rook raised his head, eyebrows jumping. Maybe Solas had some sort of ancient elven spell he could perform on Rook to ease the heat.
“Yeah? What?”
There came a shuddering sensation, the earth moving beneath him, and Rook found himself thrown forward onto his knees and scrambling for stability. Once he’d recovered his bearings, his gaze alighted on two golden greaves directly in front of him. He looked up, and there was Solas, staring down at him with one corner of his mouth ever so delicately curled in amusement.
Solas helps Rook after Rook forgets to take his suppressants on time.

Marking by Solrookera (Anderseeds)

01 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
Solas had sharp canines. Not so sharp that they could pass as fangs, but they had a slight point to them that most other people didn’t have. It was hard not to notice when he was digging them into you, leaving a vivid red mark that wouldn’t linger beyond the Fade, but that stung and throbbed in the moment. He seemed to like doing it on the softest parts of Rook most: his pecs, his belly, his thighs, like a wolf seeking the softest meat to feast on.
Before the final battle, Rook and Solas find a moment to indulge in each other.

Summary
Though they were rare these days, alphas and omegas were a known quantity in Thedas. It was an affliction exclusive to the elves, one in which an elf might be born with additional sex characteristics.
[...]
Rook didn’t think about them much. He was a beta, after all, like most elves, and he had no inclination to learn about that part of his ancestry beyond what the Circle had taught him.
Maybe if he had, he would have been prepared for the events that transpired a few months into his conflict with the remaining Evanuris.
Well after the age most elves would present, Rook discovers he's an omega.

Summary
The Black City was an ancient, hopeless place, smothered in primordial Blight and derelict from neglect and age, and now it was Solas' eternal home. A prison of his design, in which he was now an inmate. But he wasn't without company - Rook was still here, propped up against a wall in the immediate aftermath of their scrimmage, one hand cupped over the weeping wound on his side. It would kill him without magical intervention. Given their location, that might have been a mercy.
So Solas healed him.
In the quiet of the Black City, Rook and Solas' enmity for each other wanes over time.
