    Summary

    It wasn’t that they both knew that this section - regardless of how serene it was - was ultimately open to the public and anybody could happen by them at any time, though that had its own ribald appeal…

    No, it was for the very fact that Emmrich ‘I-Choose-My-Words-Carefully’ Volkarin did nothing accidentally and left no room for coincidence when his actions were called into question.

    An expanded imagining of the Act 3 romance scene with our gentleman necromancer: tooth-rottingly sweet, but cheek-reddeningly smutty too. Includes some freaky Fade-magic because you know Emmrich is into that sort of thing.

    Summary

    Finally, she sees them: the lower frequencies of the Fade. They are visible just at the edge of the Lighthouse bubble, just before the device nullifies them. They are slower than a heartbeat, but faster than the tick of a clock, a steady oscillation that she realizes matches his own.

    He is fucking her to the pulse of the Fade itself.

    Emmrich finds his lover, Clara Ingellvar, waiting for him on his balcony. While talking about the Fade, Emmrich helps Clara find her pleasure.

    Summary

    “Unless you can magically create a pocket of the Fade where I can just shut my brain off for an hour or two without Solas or anyone else barging in, our stolen moments will just have to do.”

    She meant it as a joke, but it sparked an idea. Not a pocket in the Fade, no, and maybe he couldn’t get her mind to settle completely but it was certainly a goal to work towards. A suddenly enticing goal. All he’d need was her consent, a decent chunk of time and four walls away from the Lighthouse.

    Summary

    Giving Grave Gold as a gift was intimate. Something only done by parents, siblings, or spouses. It was very clear in its intention: to place evidence that one was loved both in life and death.

    Or; The Mourn Watch throws a party, Rook is bad at receiving gifts and Emmrich is very fond of adorning his lover in gold.

    Summary

    Rook sighed, dropping her head on Emmrich's desk in an exaggerated show of eye-rolling. “You know, this wouldn’t be happening if you just kept a bed in your room.”

    “You don’t have a bed in your room either,” Emmrich shot back, hearing the pettiness in his voice but unable to do anything about it.

    “At least I have a couch! With cushions!” Rook rose to a sitting position with a grumble, looking around Emmrich’s room with a searching eye. “How about the floor?

    “I am not,” Emmrich said, in the tones of grievously wounded dignity, “having sex on the floor."

    Emmrich and Rook try to spend some quality time in his room. His furniture—or rather, lack of—are an unexpected impediment.

    Summary

    “Did you know the physiological effects of fear and arousal are much the same?” He leaned closer, inhaling the eucalyptus scent of her hair. Rook tugged weakly on the door handle, but he held firm. Emmrich could practically feel the heat of her blush radiating, even from behind her. “Shallow breaths.” He ran two fingers up her spine, moving her heavy curls over her shoulder before pressing them to the pulse point just below her jaw. “Elevated heart rate.” The beat pounded below his fingertips perfectly as he tightened his grip on her neck and leaned closer to kiss the nape. A small whimper escaped her lips. He grinned against her skin. “Involuntary sounds.”

    “Emm…” she whispered, trembling.

    Emmrich used his grip on her throat to spin her to face him, caging her smaller body against the door. “Dilated pupils,” he observed. “My sweet Renya..." He enjoyed the way she had to crane her neck to look him in the eye. “When you learned that it was I who cornered you in the Necropolis all those years ago, did it change how you viewed the memory?” He leaned in to run his teeth along her delicately pointed ear. “Does it excite you now, little rabbit?”

    Summary

    She would not survive this.

    Gods above, she'd known he'd had an interesting idea in mind when he'd woken her this morning. Her whispered confession from weeks ago still ringing in his ears. But the honey suckle sweetness of his voice had not prepared her for just how arousing it was to be at his mercy.

    ~Or Rook confesses that she finds it arousing when he takes control, that she's seen the power his magic wields. She wants him to show her, to teach her. To lead her in a dance she didnt understand.
    She just hadnt expected him to be so bloody good at it.

    Summary

    “How many bones comprise the wrist?” He questioned, thumb never slowing the strokes of her wrist. It was vexing how he could turn even the most innocent of touches into something she craved. Something that caused her to press her thighs together as subtly as she could manage.

    She took in a breath through her nose, catching a hint of incense before she exhaled to steady herself. “There are seven-“ his brow creased by a fraction, “Eight bones in the wrist.” She corrected hastily, and he seemed properly mollified.

    “I suppose we can focus on skeletal and venous formations for now. You will respond with the major arteries and skeletal structures as I point to them. Feel free to add any pertinent information, and don’t be afraid to admit to any gaps in your education. I am here to guide you, after all.” He smiled gently as those wicked fingers of his slid up and down her forearm gently.

    Summary

    ** This fic contains spoilers from the entire game, proceed at your own risk **

    Rook let the silence overtake them, knowing that their task felt so surreal that any explanation simply wasn’t sufficient to express the gravity of what she had already seen. The gods she had been raised to venerate, a prayer to Elgar’nan for favor in raising crops, his countenance the life-giving sun, or a plea to Ghilan’nain, the Mother of halla, to guide their clan safely through the forests and mountains; her beliefs crushed by the horrifying truth of their tyrannical destruction, the obsessive desire for power at any cost. Could she truly expect shemlen to understand they were against the will of her gods? And could she admit that her stumbling had freed them…?

    A mini-novelization of the events of Veilguard with my headcanons, with a focus on Rook and Emmrich's romance.

    He cups your cheek with a leather palm. “Is there something else I can give you then, my dear?”

    You swallow dumbly, unable to focus on anything other than his touch. He strokes your cheekbone slowly before trailing his fingers down your jaw to capture your chin between his thumb and forefinger.

    “Tell me, Rook,” he leans close, his lips almost brushing yours. “What do you want?”

    You can’t sleep. Plagued by thoughts of Professor Volkarin, you find your way to his quarters where he is more than happy to provide assistance.

    Summary

    He had pieced together everything she hadn’t actually said out loud. Rook had been a bit smitten since he had first moved into the Lighthouse, and she hadn’t been very subtle about it either. It was a very clear conclusion: he didn’t believe that she would put herself first and he was going to have to do it for her.

    Summary

    “There’s just inches in between us.
    I want you to give in.
    There is tension in between us.
    I just wanna give in, and I don’t care if I’m forgiven.
    Right now, I’m shameless.”

     

    – Shameless, Camila Cabello

     

    Sometimes the only way to tell somebody how you feel about them is to first get really, really drunk.

    “Rook couldn’t decide if she needed to get more bottles of that wine or avoid it like the blight. She supposed that all depended on how much of an ass she made of herself tonight.”

    Summary

    The hand not resting on her hip moved to cup her cheek, leaving her thoroughly breathless. “After our…moment, where I summoned those wisps upstairs, I sensed something had changed between us. You withdrew. I can’t say I blamed you.”

    Rook opened her mouth, but Emmrich brushed his thumb over her lower lip, much like he had moments ago over her new scars. “Permit me to finish, please.” He had never once interrupted her, or anyone else on the team, for that matter. So Rook fell silent, heart pounding wildly. “I am much older than you. It is why I didn’t fall on my knees for you the moment I met you in the Necropolis and your earnest compliment of my helm made me blush like a schoolboy. How could such a bold, daring, beautiful young woman ever return my affections?”

    Oh. Oh…

    Emmrich continued, and his fingers tightened on her hip almost possessively. “Rook. Renya.” She shuddered at the use of her given name. “If there is any hope for a foolish old man, would you tell me?” He traced her cheekbone, down her neck, coming to a rest to cup the back of her head. “The beautiful blushes you favor me with, do they mean you feel the same way? Or that you are too shy to tell me no?”
