Summary
An evening among courtiers in Orlais leaves Cassandra a little jealous, but the Inquisitor is more than happy to help work out her frustrations.
Canon-compliant smut with a side of feelings and a smack of plot.

Summary
The Conclave disaster leaves March City in disarray and a power vacuum at the highest levels, for the city proper and its Circle of Magi. As the newly-formed Inquisition Task Force struggles to keep order, those with ambition and their own agendas rise to stake their claim on the future, and Cassandra and Trevelyan investigate trouble at the Circle, only to find that everything is more connected than it seems.
More modern cop procedural AU! With more action! More drama! More romance! Alternating points of view. Rated for smut.
Can be read on its own, but for best results, read Part 1.
[Updated Dec 2022: Edits throughout. Same spirit, just leaner and meaner.]

Post-game, pre-Trespasser pure smut with feelings.

Summary
What if Trevelyan never became Inquisitor? What if he joined as a companion instead?
He and Cassandra fall in love, but when it’s time for the Divine Election, Owain doesn’t ask her to stay. What right does he have? How can he be enough? He’s left picking over the pieces, what was said and unsaid, and wondering whether things could have been different.
An angsty, angsty one-shot/break-up song.

Summary
Twenty years in the Circle taught Owain Trevelyan to survive, to bury his hopes and dreams and take nothing--and no one--at face value. When the mage rebellion lands him in the Inquisition, he’s called upon to confront his past and help shape the future. The skeptic is asked to hope, as Thedas hangs in the balance.
A DAI remix through the eyes of a male mage Trevelyan. Explores his inner world and relationships, especially with the Lady Seeker--a slow burn, friends-to-lovers, low-key romance situation. Just two people trying to find room for love as they navigate war, duty, and the expectations we place on ourselves and others.
A note on form: chapters average around 4-5k words, relatively self-contained “episodes” with serialized elements. Now contains 100% more Trespasser. Thanks for reading!
