Summary
Daryl’s POV:
Following the prison’s fall, Daryl sets out to find survivors while Rick recovers. He thought he was ready for anything the world could throw at him—he was wrong. She’s silent, smart, lethal, and somehow manages to make his life infinitely more complicated. Trust is fragile, danger is constant, and distraction could be fatal. Which is a serious problem when that distraction is reading smut in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. She might’ve saved his life—or ruined it. He hasn’t decided yet.Fin’s POV:
Three years surviving alone has taught her to trust no one… until a boy and his injured dad force her hand. Now her orderly life is in chaos, and one newcomer has her thinking—and feeling—things she never should. People are dangerous, the dead aren’t so bad, and Daryl? He could be either a temporary distraction… or total destruction. If she doesn’t shoot him first.Mid Season 4-Departs from Cannon with world building.

Summary
I spent my first year here in Thedas, in a world I know from video games I first played during the pandemic lockdown, trying to get back home. Well, okay, no. I spent the largest part of the first year alternately sobbing and staring into space in a Chantry hospice, having a fun little emotional and mental breakdown as all of the laws of reality as I know them were broken.
I spent the second year trying to get back. I searched out people I thought could help, but I couldn’t even get to Kirkwall. There’s only so many odd jobs you can do for money, and that money does not get you far in a post-Blight Ferelden. I managed to get enough coin and favor to barter for a message to be carried into Orlais. It would result in either my murder for being a threat or hopefully the formation of a powerful acquaintance, but as no reply ever came, I lost hope.
I have spent the last two years resigned. I am not a Chosen One. I am an accident of fate or chance, and neither matters much when I’m gaunt from hunger and living in a drafty shack in one of the coldest places I’ve ever been to.

Summary
Lena was heading home from her day job as a software engineer when an llithid nautiloid kidnapped her. Luckily, she's a honey badger shifter, and honey badgers are best known for taking on big cats, hyenas, scorpions, and venomous snakes, and surprisingly, surviving! Unluckily, her new companions might want to murder her because she's decided that she's going to go completely unfiltered. Luckily, her liger best friend, Edie, will help her stay alive. Sorta.
This reads mostly as a Baldur's Gate 3 playthrough with in-game dialog as a jumping-off point for lots of non-canon dialog that I think is funny. Your mileage will vary.
Oh, and awkward attempts at emotional depth and smut. It's not deliberate: I just forget how normal people react. And if you're looking for good smut, look elsewhere. But I'm going to just keep on chugging despite the lack of external validation. Though I do love me some external validation (nudge, nudge).
I also post what amounts to a first draft to be fixed. Later.
'Happy' reading!
There's an epilogue for anyone who wants to punish themselves further!

Summary
Tara flew to his shoulder and gazed down with him, taking in the scene.
“Do you see it?” he whispered. “What…”
“I see it.” She rubbed her cheek against his, her tail curling around his hunched shoulders.
“What does it mean?”
“It means hope, Gale. It means something real.”—
Gale is a divination wizard, but a mere shadow of his former glory.
Aoife is an Oath of the Ancients paladin, haunted by the grief of her past.
A year after their fateful first meeting Aoife's path crosses the Wizard of Waterdeep's once more. But as the two are drawn together, Gale's misfortune with the orb and Aoife's long-held sorrow aren't the only dark shadows cast upon them by the past, and soon their fates become as entangled as the threads of the Weave.
