    Summary

    Note: Ratings change
    Rook and Solas have been through a lot, and have feelings. Lots of feelings. Once he knows that Rook wants him, he is not going to stop until he has her. Whatever it takes. Fen’Harel cultists, a wannabe evanuris, and being stuck in the Fade is not going to get in the way.

    "Rook takes a long look at him. Solas is not the bruised, weeping man who chose to bind himself to the Fade. With Morrigan’s help, Mythal had released him from her service. The inquisitor had convinced him to give up on bringing down the Veil. In the end, Morrigan had turned into a bird and flew away. The inquisitor had returned to her life with her husband, Cullen.

    But Rook felt as if she never left, her heart breaking when she watched Solas turn around to enter the breach consigned to eternity alone. For the very briefest moment, she had an impulse to go with him. How could she, how could anyone do that to him?

    She was a fool.

    And then Solas had turned at the last moment and said, “Thank you, Rook.” before disappearing from view.

    It was at that moment that Rook knew she would never be free of him.

    Even if they found a way to break their blood bond, she would never be free."

    Summary

    “Don’t think I haven’t noticed you slipping out of Varric’s suite this morning.”

    Hawke laughed, as if that was the single most ridiculous thing the world had ever heard, and challenged with a wide gesture at the quarters they were in, “Who amongst us hasn’t spent a night in Varric’s bed?”

    “In his bed?” Isabela gasped, evidently shocked at the revelation, and then whistled with respect. “I’m lucky if I get the floor!”

     

    or:

    How Hawke and Varric finally learn to say what they really mean.

     

    Canon-compliant Hawke/Varric long-fic spanning Dragon Age 2, Inquisition, and The Veilguard.

    Solavellan is a side pairing in the later chapters. This is really a Hawke/Varric story about love and found family, miscommunication, assumptions and why you shouldn't make them, and persevering in the face of hopelessness.

    Summary

    He is nothing like either of the images she had conjured in her head. She had painted the Solas of Varric’s Inquisition into a small, spindly figure who was uncannily similar to her cousin’s husband, Abren, who had memorized old ballads and carved little, delicate, wooden halla. Fen’Harel…well, it depends. There was the giant wolf, of course, although how giant seemed to change, depending on what mood she was in when imagining him. And the elf…

    Aradin Mercar, once of clan Lavellan, is barely holding her own sanity together. It is somewhat unreasonable, then, to expect her to be able to hold all of Thedas together as well - especially as Thedas itself continues to turn against her.
