doves & crows fly the same by iamcayc

Summary
I guess I'm tired of talk of hope
I've learned that doves and ravens fly the same (Fly the same)
-- "Glory" by Dermot KennedyGetting kicked out of Tevinter after freeing Venatori slaves and beating the shit out of the slaver who delivered them wasn't part of your plan for the Nessus job.
Unleashing two elven gods eager to release the Blight and take over the world wasn't part of your plan to stop Solas's Veil-destorying ritual.
Falling in love with a demon-possessed Antivan Crow with a dipshit cousin and a terrifying grandmother wasn't part of your plan for saving the world as you know it from certain obliteration.
"Perfectly-executed plans" weren't really in your repertoire as Astraea "Rook" Mercar, Shadow Dragon mage turned hero. But you will never stop fighting for what's right, whether it's freeing slaves, killing blighted gods, or showing a wounded Crow the love you struggle to show yourself.

tl;dr >> i'm taking the sad excuse of a romance they gave lucanis/rook and rewriting it into what i would have wanted from DA:TV

Little Bird With a Purpose (Lucanis Dellamorte) by SarcasticGhost

Summary
When you clip a bird's wings, you're forcing it into compliance. Not all birds come quietly.
She wasn't always Juno De Riva, she had a different name altogether when she was still with her mother and father. Things change, and sometimes people don't come back when you expect them to. What else can a caged bird do, but sing?
Joining the flock would not be a simple task, but it's what she needed to do to survive. If the Fifth Talon found no use for Juno, she had no doubt he would cast her out onto the street, or worse.
When Matteo De Riva suggests Juno aim higher, to try to marry the heir apparent to the First Talon house, would she be able to use her skills to catch his eye?
Or would she remain a caged bird forever?

Summary
Rook survived the Kirkwall Circle. She survived Crow training. She even survived a meeting with the Dread Wolf. But, she's starting to wonder if her sanity will survive the Demon of Vyrantium.
Before Spite, before the Antaam, before his "death" and her defiance, Lucanis and Rook had history together. No, not that kind of history, for all that Rook had wished for it. They were colleagues, and on their better days Rook would have even called them friends. Never mind that she had fallen for him from their first mission together; never mind that she was the one mage he trusted to have his back; never mind that she'd saved his life once already and he'd owed her a debt long before the Ossuary. They'd left too many things unsaid, and what words were spoken before it all fell apart had been shouted in anger.
Now it's the end of the world, and with it, a second chance. But a demon, a Blight, and three Elven gods stand in their way, and the odds for anything good are stacked against them. How fortunate then, that a Rook can rise above anything, and a Crow's stubbornness can spite the gods themselves.
It's just getting out of their own way that's the real problem.

Summary
When Kotallo lost his arm, it was more than just a limb that he had lost. It was his prowess with a bow. It was his utility as a Marshal. His arm was gone, his life a ruin, and nothing would ever be the same.
It did not occur to him that this could be a good thing.
It did not occur to him that he could find new purpose in his life. It did not occur to him that an outlander with hair like blood and a spirit as fierce as blazefire would help him find that purpose.
With Aloy as his witness, Kotallo would find himself again, and nothing would ever be the same.
********************
In other words: a wish fulfillment fic where Aloy and Kotallo fall in love over the course of the game. Canon scenes and dialogue blended and padded out with introspection, cozy conversations, smut, and all the GAIA Gang bonding that we deserved. ❤Series

PART ONE OF "THE ROGUE VARIABLE"
When 24-year old Myra Larimer wakes up 210 years in the future, she has no way of knowing exactly what fate has in store for her. As she gains allies and attempts to navigate her new reality, the threads of fate begin to wind tighter around her, binding her destiny to that of the entire Commonwealth.
(M rating is for language, that's it. Everything else is pretty appropriate or happens off-screen. Sorry!)
This story’s slightly-AU, because just reading the game content is boring. Any changes were made for specific reasons, and hopefully you’ll find them satisfactory.

Summary
You want the true story of the Hero of Ferelden? I can only tell you what I heard, I wasn't there. You won't find anyone who knows the whole story, unless you ask her yourself. You'll get bits and pieces from the people who traveled with her, but not even the King himself knows the full truth about what really happened. Don't care, huh? Well, alright, but don't say I didn't warn you. We'll have to start at the very beginning, but that's the part that's the most vague. Only one person alive knows that happened that night in Highever Castle, and she's not exactly willing to talk about it. Her brother? He wasn't there for that part. Come to think of it, Fergus wasn't around for much of this story. But, enough talk. You want to know what happened? Let's start at the beginning. The day everything blew up in her face.

Summary
Alistair Theirin never wanted to be king, but he wasn’t able to say no when Sereda Aeducan won the Landsmeet in his favor. Then she died slaying the Archdemon, leaving him to run a country with no idea how that was supposed to work. So far he’s mostly made a lot of educated guesses and leaned heavily on his regent, but Eamon’s latest scheme to win the confidence of the court might be the craziest thing Alistair has ever, however reluctantly, agreed to. Or maybe it will turn out to be the best.
Nalissa Cousland barely escaped the sacking of Castle Cousland with her life, and after months trying to destabilize Howe’s hold on her people, spent the rest of the Blight as a prisoner of war in Fort Drakon. She still hasn’t come to terms with the scars on her body or the ones in her mind, and she doesn’t know that she ever will. But when she receives a proposition from the one man in Ferelden more powerful than her brother, she may not have a choice. She’ll just have to hope she can deflect enough until then.
First person POV, alternating between Alistair and Nalissa. Arranged marriage AU, canon if you squint. Rating for language, PTSD symptoms, NSFW content. Mind the tags! Sensitive chapters carry trigger warnings.
