Summary
This is the story of two friends who've collected more than their fair of bruises in far too short a time. It is the story of a lark gone awry, a get away: waylaid, a party turned political scandal. This is the story of two people far from home who ran from their troubles, only to find more. It is the story of two reluctant detectives who try as they might, can't stop themselves from solving a mystery when it offers itself so blatantly before them.

Summary
Sent by Keeper Deshanna to observe the proceedings at the Divine's Conclave, Enya Lavellan finds herself embroiled in events beyond her control. Isolated from those she cares for, the tumultuous family of Clan Lavellan, Enya struggles with the pain of her Mark and the responsibility she feels is now hers to bear. Along the way, she is forced to reckon with specters of her past, her people, and examine what it means for a Dalish elf to take up the titles thrust upon her, all while rising to meet the challenge of an ancient foe whose plans seem to only cast more doubt on what she thought she knew of a world grander and larger than she could possibly have imagined. Driven, intelligent, fiercely protective and curious, Enya will stop at nothing to save the people of Thedas from those that would hurt it, even if she must sacrifice herself to do so.
The story of Enya Lavellan, Herald of Andraste, Leader of the Inquisition. A chronicle of the events that transpired between the Breach of the Fade and the Defeat of Corypheus. {A Novelization}

Summary
"The first reflection revealed what she had not said, hadn’t dared to admit, even to herself. In that lake, under the newborn winter sun, she was both awed and terrified to recognize the first heartbeats of something more."
Reflections are both the truth we see through our eyes, and the things we wish to conceal. Like history, there are many tales. Two people may remember different things, but have stood side by side through the events they recount. Neither is the whole truth, neither tells a complete lie. Here, the reflections reveal, and she reaches out for what she sees, entranced by the unexpected.

Summary
A mirror reveals to us many truths: those we wish to see, those we wish to hide. For a mirror is but a looking glass that reflects back to us in equal measure that which we desire and that which we fear. If it unveils truth then it equally obscures lies, for what we see is the inverse of ourselves, working both in concert and opposition, meeting only in the mirror.

Summary
She searches within herself, lost in a dark maze. Vengeance, grief, betrayal, rage, assail her, blotting out the light in which she once surrounded herself, and now, she isn't sure she even knows where to look to find the sun. She's forgotten how to live without a blade, and without an enemy to kill, and she wonders in the wake of His deception, if she hadn't already stepped into the shadows of her own accord, if the High King hadn't been right to send her far away.
And that is where we start.

Summary
I have two Doctor Who Series I'm working on. This is the one dedicated to moments where the Doctor and Donna step beyond their on-screen friendship. It exists for people who want to see the Doctor and Donna together as a couple. If you don't ship it, good news, the other fic Series is dedicated to their beautiful weird friendship. The two series do work from the same AU headcanon so these fics fit in alongside the other fics. The goal is to show how little anything changes when you add romance to the mix.

Summary
An ignoble death reclaimed from hell's gate; life's security stolen and determined not to lose again. Arthur Morgan did all he could to make amends in the time he had and it weren't enough; Sadie Adler's had too much stolen from her and refuses to lose anything more. Two strong wills in close quarters at odds and free for the now, but there's no guarantee it'll last. Divergent storytelling from the end of Chapter VI.

“You ever think of something other than Sadie in that thick head of yours?” he demanded. “All busy proving your mettle with the menfolk, you don’t think none!”
“Think about what, Arthur?” Sadie crossed her arms, full challenged him with the words and sharp tone.
“About them others around you!” he laid the words out, hot and harsh. “You think I ain’t bothered by what happened? Christ! You getting shot, mixed up in all this? That all’s on me. Don’t matter what your high and mighty choice was on dragging me out the Hollow, still true that none of it’d’ve happened if it weren’t for me!” He gestured to himself, a hard thump on his chest that struck an agonizing chord. “You go out there and rip a stitch playing like you need work? That’s on me!”

Phenomenal, well constructed (but depressing) case interspersed with strong characterization and dialogue. Totally in character, easily rereadable.
