    Summary

    A practical and respectable university student meets a disreputable man who wants to fly. The ending is obvious to anyone not distracted by their own genius, and it's a little further off than it probably should have been.

    Not a ship I thought I'd get emotional about, but this is excellent. It portrays the characters as they are, and the tone is hilarious at points.

It is a strained whisper." - Anora loses more than a child with each miscarriage. The story of her barren life through the years.

    This is one of my favorite Dragon Age fics. The fact that it has my OT3 as a sweet polyamorous family is the icing on the cake.

    Summary

    To cover up an elaborate lie, Noatak once carved young Taraka a betrothal necklace, their 'union' blessed by Yue herself.

    Taraka never told her brother how much the gesture truly meant to her, or about how she loved him more than anyone, treasuring the symbol of their love more than any watertribe wife had ever done before.

    Years later, as a Councilwoman and hero against the Equalist threat, Taraka wore the necklace still, to remind her of the good things in her swiftly darkening life--from her romance with an unassuming yet mysterious nonbender named Lee, to her close friendship with the Avatar.

    Extremely well-written genderbent Tarrlok. Normally, I don't enjoy brother/sister incest (barring a handful of examples), but the dynamic and dramatic irony are incredibly well done.
