Summary
Hail to you, Caeneus,
glory of the Lapith race, a great man once,
but now the one bird of your kind.— Ovid's Metamorphoses, book twelve, translated by Ian Johnston
Fenris only becomes a man with the Fog Warriors, away from his master and given the gift of self-determination. In Minrathous, he switches between a masculine warrior and a hyperfeminine bed slave, and doesn’t understand why he much prefers the first option. After escaping Seheron, he starts to move towards southern Thedas, with a first stop in Antiva, where he meets Zevran Arainai and learns to be a person for the first time, and then ending up in Kirkwall, where he meets Hawke, the woman he falls in love with while trying to hide his manhood as something self-made.
Or: Fenris as a trans man, from Minrathous to Kirkwall.

Summary
The disquiet and hurt in Fenris' heart — scarring him as clearly as the lyrium burnt into his skin — is not a hurt that can easily heal.

Summary
“I… made a mistake,” Fenris says. He’s shivering so hard that his voice shakes. “Broke a promise.”
Aveline frowns, “How about you sit down before you fall over. Make yourself comfortable on the couch. Then we’ll talk.”
“I’m fine,” he growls defensively, but immediately takes her up on her offer nonetheless.
Donnic points to the kitchen and mouths something that Aveline assumes is an offer to help. She nods, and he disappears around the corner.
“Alright,” Aveline says, taking a seat in the chair diagonal from Fenris, “tell me what happened.”

“I’m going to tell Isabela about this and then you’ll never hear the end of it,” Fenris threatens.
“Nooooo, my precious dignity!” Anders rolls onto his back and kicks his legs in the air as he screeches with laughter.
“What dignity?” Fenris chortles. “Since when have you had dignity?”

Summary
After Hawke is left in the Fade, Fenris finds himself adrift and in mourning. But a chance meeting with a hungover dwarf on the road to Denerim may suggest another path back towards himself--and perhaps, towards Hawke. Provided, of course, that he can actually put up with Oghren's company for that long.
