    Summary

    In which a pampered noble gets humbled by life and his bodyguard, and now must learn how to survive, work, and maybe even fall in love — one mishap at a time.

    Or, in short, an alternative take on KCD2, in which the whiny lord didn't leave us (or he tried to, but failed miserably).

    Summary

    The water is calm, reflecting her easily, a vision of a ghost, a warrior, a scared little girl, a liar and a murderer, and other things she hasn’t yet given a name, hasn’t dared look at too closely. Fighting, blood, bruises, aimless violence taking aim. Spying and subterfuge. This is what Radzig wants, and what she has to do to get what she wants. The only thing that matters. Revenge at any cost. Her father’s sword. It is the only thing. Isn’t it?

    His face flashes to the forefront of her mind, blue eyes, golden hair, matching the gold of his beautiful pourpoint, and she thinks of something other than the blood and the violence. Something a little softer. Something slightly more real.

     

    A girl dies in the ashes of Skalitz. Something else rises in her place.

    Summary

    The young Lord Hans Capon had become quickly fond of the peasant blacksmith's boy thrust unwillingly into his service - not that he'd admit as much aloud.

    Summary

    Husband, he thought. Wife, even, should it please you.

    He reaches out a hand, grabbing the crown and placing it atop Hans' head. It was a broken, misshapen thing now, but it looked nothing less than regal on him.

    "Yours." He settles on, as if it were any less impossible.

    Just a single summer day, shared between a lord and his squire.

    OR: A series of vignettes following a single day in the life of Hansry where the boys are forced to confront their lingering anxieties about the future that ends with Henry getting his back blown out (carefully and with lots of love)

    Summary

    Skalitz burns but one less victim is claimed. Rattay thrives but the walls are closing in on its heir.

    Lost in their own ways, Anna and Hans find common ground in uncommon circumstances, and bond over tumultuous stories of love and loud sacrifice.

     

    (Or, a world where Henry’s mother survives, Henry and Hans are still painfully obvious in their affections, and Radzig still is about to lose his mind, but at least he has company this time.)

    It was not the Lumière of her childhood to which she had returned, and it never would be again. How could it? After everything they had gone through? Too much had changed.

    The city. The world.

    Her.

    Some scars simply could not—should not—be painted over. Not even with all the power to shape creation’s design at your beck and call.

    They would remain, but so would you.

    Summary

    Gustave let go of a heavy sigh and nodded his head. Back in the Stone Wave Cliffs, he had come to peace that this was where his journey ended—For those who come after, right?—but it seemed like his story wasn't done just yet. Maelle had, somehow, given him another lease on life, and this time, he could live it. He could grow old. He could do things simply for the sake of doing them; every waking moment didn't have to be dedicated to trying to solve the issue with the Paintress, with preserving their civilization.

    Summary

    Adrian Hawke ran with Anders. As Ferelden dissolves into open warfare, he knows they can't remain in their sanctuary, no matter how much he wishes for it. Justice can’t abide it, nor can Anders. And he'll follow Anders past the edge of the world.

    If Anders' actions in Kirkwall weren't enough to remove the possibility of compromise, the Conclave’s destruction annihilated any remaining chance that Thedas might revert to its prior normalcy. Justice still has demands, however; and the dissolution of the Circles will not be enough. Mercy without justice is hollow. Justice without mercy is cruel. And begets only more injustice.

    Rhys Trevelyan spent most of his life unwilling to entertain the idea of a fate other than confinement in a Circle – easier to anesthetize his despondence and not make a fuss. Suddenly saddled with the responsibility of closing the Breach and backed by the belief of hundreds of thousands, Rhys has more power than he ever imagined – or wanted. Enough to change the world. But unless he can find the will to master that power himself, there are plenty of people who will master it on his behalf.

    Summary

    Several months had passed since Gale’s marriage to Mystra ended, and the idea of diving back into the dating world held little appeal. After a series of disastrous first dates arranged by well-meaning friends, Gale reluctantly agreed to try out a new dating app, only to discover it was more geared toward casual hook-ups than finding a meaningful relationship.

    Despite his initial reservations, Gale spent an evening testing the app, scrolling through profiles until he paused on one that caught his eye - a stunning, pale elf with the username Starlight69. On impulse, he marked the profile as a favourite and decided to call it a night. But just as he was about to put his phone away, a message from Starlight69 appeared on his screen…

    Starlight69: Hello, darling~ 😈

    Without hesitation, Astarion attached a rather flattering photo of himself - nude, of course.

    Summary

    You've really made a mess of things, you know, Anders thought with annoyance.

    (Is it so unusual to enjoy another in this way? Justice wondered. You allow yourself to notice him as well, I think - though for you it is shoulders, arms, grace of movement, the way light strikes the collarbone or side of the face -)

    That's exactly the point, Anders interrupted, doing his best to drive away the thoughts Justice had evoked. I'm supposed to be the one who falls for dangerous strangers. I'm supposed to be the one who wants things that are bad for me. You're supposed to be the responsible one.

    ━━━━━━━━━━

    Hawke is busy with her own affairs, Anders and Fenris have to learn to rely on each other, and Justice tries to convince them they have more in common than they think.

    Summary

    "Magic exists to serve man, and never to rule over him. Foul and corrupt are they who have taken His gift, and turned it against His children. They shall be named Maleficar, accursed ones. They shall find no rest in this world, or Beyond." Anders knew the verse. Every mage did. But Anders was a runner. He ran from the Circle. He ran from the Templars. He ran from relationships. So what did he care? He was never going to rest anyway.
