    Summary

    Dwarves don't have soulmarks, not the way humans and elves and qunari do. The prevailing theory is that the bond between you and your soulmate that forms your mark is tied to the Fade, and that's why only those who still have enough of a connection to it to dream can form soulmarks.

    Dwarves still have soulmates, of course, but it's different.

    Hawke'd learned all that in sporadic magical theory lessons from his father, but it’s never been particularly relevant until after he meets Varric.

    Summary

    Chester Bennington is tired of being his friends' favorite pet project. A hopeless romantic. After one too many blind dates and pitying looks at his best friend's wedding, he snaps. In a moment of pure, desperate impulse, he points to a calm, handsome stranger across the room and declares, "I'm seeing him."

    Mike Shinoda is just trying to enjoy his drink in peace. He wasn't expecting to be voluntold into being a charismatic engineer's fake boyfriend. But something about Chester's frantic, unintentionally poetic plea is strangely endearing.

    Now, they have to sell it. For ten minutes, then for a brunch, and for as long as their web of lies can hold against the well-meaning, fiercely observant friends who are just so happy Chester isn't single anymore… or eachother.

    Summary

    Chester Bennington, a newly self-certified dating coach, is on a mission to fix his best friend, Mike Shinoda's, love life with a series of (hilariously disastrous) setups. Mike goes along with it just to see Chester's passionate, post-date debriefs. It becomes their strange, intimate ritual, until one awful date leads to a furious, heartfelt rant from Chester—and a realization that the perfect match he’s been searching for has been far closer than he ever imagined all along.
