    Summary

    Tired of his shitty 9-5 job, tired of getting paid just the minimum wage and barely making it to the end of the day, Hawke decides to fulfill his teenage dream of making a rock band, even if it'll be difficult to find bandmates around his age group, but trying won't harm anyone. So hawke decides to give it a shot, putting up flyers and asking his coworkers, hoping to find someone willing to follow him into the unknown, and maybe just maybe, have a small taste of the freedom and joy he hasn't felt since he was younger, certain that someone else must feel frustrated enough to try and put those feelings into words and chords.

    Summary

    Anders accepts a position he should have refused.

    A haunted manor in the Tevinter hills.
    A Magister whose research leaves bodies in its wake.
    A house that breathes, listens, and remembers.

    And an elf carved with lyrium—silent, nameless, bound to obey.

    What begins as curiosity becomes captivity.
    What begins as silence becomes something far more dangerous.

    Summary

    It's no secret that Anders isn't the best cook in the world. Man makes fire more then he makes food. Fenris can't help but find it a little depressing so decides to help the surgical resident learn how to at least make biscuits.

    Turns out the blonde is more willing to follow direction more then he normally lets on.

    “I’ll just have ramen or some shit before I crash.” Anders mutters knowing he can’t possibly fuck up instant ramen. “You can go back to bed.”
    “No I can’t. Look, the fact you can’t make eggs is really concerning. You’re 27, you should know the basics.” Fenris comments clearly finding this all to be worrying at the very least. “Come on, I’ll show you how to make biscuits. You can’t possibly fuck that up.”

    Anders pauses, Fenris’s never bothered to try and help Anders learn how to cook. Normally it’s their playful banter of Fenris giving Anders shit and then Anders asking Fenris to read the ingredient labels knowing his dyslexic ass will struggle.

    Summary

    The two mages came in together, their clothes well-worn and dusty from traveling. It wasn't the first time the establishment welcomed apostates, nor was it the first time said apostates had unkempt looks.

    And yet Cole felt something that made him look, a lingering trace of a ghost that left its mark forever on one of the mages.

    Summary

    Anders wakes up on a battlefield with no memories post-Awakening, no Justice, and the questionable resolve to pretend everything's fine.

    --
    When they got back into the city proper, Varric asked if he was going to see Anders at the next weeks Wicked Grace night, as the whole gang promised to be there. Anders wasn't sure who 'the whole gang' was exactly, but if he had any more impossibly attractive friends here, then he wasn't going to pass up the chance to meet them.
    Hawke turned to the elf. “Fenris, you okay to head to Hightown by yourself? I'm going to walk Anders to his clinic,”
    “Great, because I would love the company,” Anders said quickly. And the directions, he thought. “To my, uh, clinic... that I run?” he had tried not to let the sentence end like a question, but he was afraid that the upwards infliction had given him away. When the elf merely huffed and bid them goodbye, he began to suspect that perhaps these people were just used to him spouting nonsense.

    Summary

    “Can we put a pin in it? All of it? Just… stop fighting and try to get along, at least until it’s a fair fight?”

    If Fenris hadn’t possessed a sure-fire way to know whether or not Anders was casting a spell, he’d have thought the mage was putting him in some kind of magical trance, because at that moment, he couldn’t think of a single reason not to agree with Anders’ proposal.

    So, lacking both an argument and a purpose for one, Fenris nodded.

    “As you wish.”

    After a desperate healing attempt goes haywire, Anders and Fenris try to get to the bottom of what caused the chaotic reaction. Between the phantom pains from non-existent wounds, and the sudden concern for each other's safety, they find themselves with an abundance of questions and nobody to answer them.

    Fenris/Anders Soulbond fic.
    Angst, anyone?

    Summary

    Inquisitor Anders shows up in the Dread Wolf's home, after years with little to no contact.

    He simply wanted to seek out an old friend in trying times. He should have known better than to cross the threshold.

    There were far too many things left unsaid between them, and too many secrets Solas withheld.

    Summary

    An AU based on the American and French Revolutions and a late 18th Century aesthetic. FemHawke/Anders is the main ship, but all listed ones are important.

    When Ferelden won its independence, rebuilding took an unexpected turn. Maric truly didn’t want to be king, so he urged the people to vote for General Loghain Mac Tir to lead a Republic. Now, as Ferelden faces a Blight, most of Thedas expects its radical experiment to fail against that threat. Ferelden faces attacks from both the outside and, unfortunately, the inside.

    Meanwhile, in Kirkwall, nobles and the Chantry still oppress the people. But a group of would-be rebels have taken inspiration from Ferelden. They include a physician/apothecary who writes radical pamphlets and is secretly a mage, a fierce elven scholar trying to raise the Alienage, the son of a viscount killed by the Templars, and others. Maric, his elven wife, and their son travel there to help.

    The three Hawke siblings join the fight, finding purpose, friendship, and love. But it soon becomes clear that the Revolution faces profound challenges....

    Summary

    "Marry Me." "You'll regret this." "I won't." "You will."

    Anders knows the mark is killing him. It would be kinder to tell Cullen. But Maker, he wants to get married. He couldn't remember the last mage who was lucky enough to say they were.

    And maybe, just maybe, he'll live past their wedding day if the Maker looks upon them with fortune.

    Summary

    All these years, he had only prayed that Anders would stay gone. Forgotten. When Hawke had stood between Anders and his blade, he had allowed himself to lower it. To lay down his arms for the sake of what felt right in the moment. He should have killed him.

    Then he wouldn’t be haunted by that bastard abomination's face.
    ***
    Anders is the Herald of Andraste. He's also Cullen's ex-fuck buddy that put him on hold a few years prior after blowing up a Chantry. The Maker was playing one big joke on him. Or maybe he was the joke. Because he missed being on his knees for the mage, however viperous he was.

    He missed being his mutt.

    Summary

    Taren Amell would never have guessed that they would cross paths with Anders again once they left the Circle Tower. Turns out the only thing more persistent than Anders' desire to escape the circle is Taren's crush on the fugitive apostate.

    Summary

    Anders's many escapes from the viewpoint of a somewhat Aequitarian-leaning elf mage from an alienage. One inspired by that random elf apprentice who shouts something like "this is way better than the alienage" when you click on him in the Mage Origin.

    Summary

    Magic is power.
    Love transcends power.
    Protect your loved ones by any means necessary.
    AU Inquisition, Trespasser, Wraiths of Tevinter and Absolution.
    Inquisitor Lambert Hawke-Lethandralis recruits the Free Mages, led by Anders, and the Last Loyal Templars of Thedas, led by Rylock. With his husband, Fenris, and the Hero of Fereldan, Rillian Tabris, he takes on Corypheus - and Tevinter.
    Part 1: Sea of Glass, deals with the successful defence of Haven and its cost. Part 2: She Shall See Fire, deals with the rise of Murderpope Leliana and Part 3: Stillicide sees the Inquisition march on the Venatori and their enablers in Tevinter.

    Rain, Dreams and Ruins - Death and the Maiden - Lights in the Shadow and Veins of Blue Lightning are all one series, spanning fourteen years, but it isn't necessary to have read the first three to start with this one. I'm pretty good with my notes, and I'll answer any questions in review replies.

    Veins of Blue Lightning is dedicated to my Dad - any dodgy chemistry/alchemy is on me! He certainly did his best to help.

    Thank you to Beta Gyre, whose thought-provoking reviews helped me build up my hc of Fade-space being akin to the quantum universe.

    Summary

    The Anders/Carver Offshoot I promised a commenter from the main fic Right Where You're Standing! Stand alone-readable for smut ect. separate from the main fic. If desired, chapter alignment with the Main Fic are listed in chapter notes. Currently at a good (read 'happy, in love, together') end/pause point. I will continue it a bit further as Bioware puts out more content.
    Carver Hawke finds himself drawn to a number of people, but Anders is the one who pushes it further. Anders is a total shit (as per main fic) but his good qualities and a path towards redemption is revealed after he 'kills' what is warping his passions and nature. Also kinky, rough sex.
    Check Chapters for warnings. Biggest heads up, Anders name change after he leaves Kirkwall.
    Title from Father John Misty 'Please Don't Die'
