Summary
"Not long after Hawke reached Skyhold, Fenris turned up."
One little change, and Emrys Lavellan is forced to question his burgeoning relationship with a Tevinter aristocrat where slavery of elves was a matter of course, taken for granted, and dismissed away as trivial; Dorian Pavus can no longer dismiss the practice away with one of those former slaves right there, in Skyhold, wrenching his complacency out into the harsh light of scrutiny.
An AU 'around the edges' re-telling of some of the events of "Here Lies the Abyss" that picks up shortly after "Strings". By the end, most of the Inner Circle companions and a few extras will put in an appearance.

Summary
The Reaper War is over. Weapons have been laid aside, and although the Normandy has put in for an emergency landing on a far away, unknown planet, the process of recovery has started throughout the galaxy in the wake of Synthesis.
For Steve Cortez, recovery is on the personal level, mourning the loss of a loved one for a second time as a result of the war. But as he grieves for Shepard, he gets news that knocks him further into a tailspin...but a chance for hope as well.
Envisioned as the epilogue to my "Carpe Diem" collection of short stories written to take place in-game, feel free to skip this one if the Synthesis ending or potential interpretations of dubcon (thanks to a crack theory) aren't your cuppa.

Summary
Steve Cortez still mourns the loss of his husband, Robert, but then meets Commander Shepard--a man who he is attracted to--and wrestles with reconciling his ghosts with the living man in front of him.
Another series of related short fics (some of them previously published in my drabble collection) about a single pairing--Steve Cortez and a male Shepard--paralleling ME3 game events and trying to bridge some of the gaps in their romantic relationship to better explain (in my mind, at least) how Cortez goes from his friendship arc of Act I to being ready for a romantic relationship in Act II. Organized in story chronological rather than as written order.
(Updated 31-Jan-2015:
Ch 5, "Memorial Wall", Cortez, m!Shepard, PG, developing relationship
Ch 6, "Today is What Matters", Cortez/M!Shepard, Explicit, first time(ETA: Change in plans. Finished this collection off, and the final fic relating to this series will get posted as its own entry. Coming soon!)

Summary
She’s staring up at the ceiling, hiding her grin behind her hand and coughs gently into it when she hears Cullen coming up the ladder to his bedroom.
“When you mentioned you got the hole fixed in your room, I wasn’t expecting this.” Fernweh points up, her smile breaking into the mischievous side. Cullen groaned in irritation, rubbing his forehead once he had both feet on the floor of his room. (edit JAN 22, 2015 - Additional sketches from Greendelle!)

Summary
Garrett Hawke is a simple guy. He likes simple things. Things like playing MMORPGs with his friends. Their guild, Wicked Grace, has been pretty exclusive for a while. But, when the guild becomes interested in recruiting a new member - an elven warrior named Fenris - what used to be a "fun way of passing time" becomes "Operation: Hard in Hightown" (or, as Isabela calls it, "Operation: Get Hawke Laid"). Needless to say, this operation is anything but simple.
