Summary
My stare flickered across the room, a trill of fear slithering down my spine as quite abruptly I realized the Darkling was leaning against the door, studying me with near palpable intensity.
We sat in silence for what felt like an eternity.
"Do you make it a habit of watching people while they sleep?" I finally hoarsely inquired with an edge of sarcasm, making his lips twitch into that familiar ghost of a smile. It was enough to make my chest ache.
an alternate ending and bridge between Siege and Storm and Ruin and Rising, with the ending we deserve.
long AU :)

For the first time in her life, Aloy experiences feelings she can't ignore. Feelings she thought she was immune to. Feelings for her best friend. It makes her furious, and to make matters worse—she keeps taking it out on him in an attempt to keep her distance.
A Tenakth festival in Memorial Grove seems like as good an escape as any, but she arrives to find their paths have crossed yet again. It will take every bit of strength she has to push Erend away for good, but it's her only option. How can she fall in love when the entire world needs her?
(thank you to godliath for the lovely art in the final chapter!)

Nemesis has been defeated and biosphere stabilization is well on its way. The GAIA gang is on a mission to get RCCs up and running, but locating operational facilities has proven difficult. Erend and Aloy discover a promising one in the Claim, but arrive to find the land it's on is being offered as a prize - to a lucky pair of newlyweds! They’ll face three trials before a winner is declared, and while faking a marriage sounds much easier than starting a conflict with the Oseram, pretending to be married while also pretending they're not in love with each other might pose a challenge that neither of them are prepared for.

Summary
Aloy had always known there was something different about her feelings for Erend, compared to her other friends. She hadn’t been able to identify exactly what it was until the moment she witnessed between Varl and Zo. It was as if she’d found that missing datapoint, the one that tied it all together and explained everything.
Only then did Aloy finally realize what was different about Erend: she wanted to kiss him.

After forming a deeper connection with Erend during her recovery at Stone’s Echo, Aloy fumbles her way through their newfound romantic relationship, all while working to restore GAIA. Spoilers for all of HFW.

Summary
Shadows Pass, Light Remains
She falls through a rift, into a place she only thought existed in games and books. But the timing is odd. The Inquisition has already won. So what the hell is she supposed to do? Why is she here? Chance? Or fate? At least she has no one left back home to really miss her, not anymore.
Commander Cullen Rutherford has always given his all to his duty. But each time, his devotion to his cause has left him with scars. Demons from Kinloch, blood magic from Kirkwall, and now... lyrium from the Inquisition. Except this time, he might not make it out alive. To think that the woman who swore she loved him could do this to him...
What else is left for him now?

Summary
“Jon,” Sansa says quietly, her hands twisting together in front of her. “Tell me the truth. Do you love her?”
He starts, eyes widening. “Love her?”
That’s all the confirmation she needs, but Jon rushes onward, stepping closer to her, hands outstretched and voice nervous, reassuring, as if he were a husband swearing to his wife that he loves only her.
“Sansa, no, no, gods, after this, I hope I never have to see her again.”

Summary
The night before, as Sansa oversaw the packing of her trunks – her chamber at Winterfell being emptied of her possessions to take to her new home with her – she had asked her brother to describe her soon-to-be husband because Robb hadn’t even supplied a sketch of the man.
“Well, he’s… pretty,” Robb decided after a moment’s contemplation.
“Pretty?” Sansa’s eyebrows both raised at that.

Jon steps to her and with his hands on her cheeks, he holds her face and stares into her eyes. "I promise you. You are my only Queen and you always will be."

Summary
It had been a slash across her chest from a White Walker’s sword that finally ended her life. Sansa’d landed in a puddle of her own blood, and she’d died quickly, quietly.
And then she’d awoken with a gasp, trembling, in a bed that had burned under Theon’s betrayal.
