Summary
Yes, another Modern Girl In Thedas story. But this one is different, I assure you. See, Jacquelyn Eaves is trapped in the body of her male character, Vir'assan Lavellan, and she isn't lucky enough to be the Herald of Andraste either. Instead she is an outcast, feared and mistrusted because she knows precisely what the enemy plans to do next. But that isn't going to stop her from doing everything she can to help Thedas. Despite what the Commander might have to say about it. Because it's not one's abilities that make them a Hero, reader. It's what they choose to do with them that makes the difference.

Ahem= ...Well anyhow, the 𝘷𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 are still a new experience for him to handle. Their annoying hollowed chattings will be more than he'll bargain for.

Summary
Edgar has started to notice some rather odd things happening recently. The fact that everything that happens in his life never seems to makes sense. The lack of in between throughout every big moment that happens. The overwhelming emotions that overcome him. The way he feels he knows people he’s never spoken with. How everything he goes through feels like Deja Vu. And the fact that he feels like he has no control over himself. For some odd reason Edgar can’t seem to grasp onto any ideas for long or even have the time to thoroughly digest them. It’s driving him crazy that everything feels like a fever dream he can’t wake up from. Maybe it isn’t though. Maybe this is just his life. Being controlled by some higher power. Maybe he’s not even real. Maybe he has no free will. Maybe there’s nothing but this for the rest of his life. Maybe, just maybe, he’s living in a story that already has its ending.

Summary
After graduating high school, while your friends chose to go off to different cities and to various universities, you find yourself buried beneath the suffocating weight of your repressive hometown. Isolated and in misery; your loneliness bleeds like an open wound. As you hold on by a thin thread, there's little you can do except try and survive the monotony. Day after day, you work your depressing 9-to-5 at a corner convenience store, selling lottery tickets and packs of cigarettes. Until one afternoon, when you stumble upon an abandoned gaming counsel that shapes your boring life into a well-oiled machine of chaos and violence.
Once transported into Call of Duty, you're stuck puppeteering as an amnesiac prisoner captured by the Konni group, while working alongside the 141 Task Force to take down Makarov. Yet, as your feelings for the four soldiers who rescued you complicates, you realize that the decision to return to your old reality isn't as clear cut as you once believed.
The one thing you know for sure, though, is that you've never needed physical wounds to experience pain. But, goddamn, do bullets fucking hurt.

Summary
Instances and World Events definitely weren’t his things. He had barely took part in the Fell Winter Quests storyline, having been a too low-level player at the time to truly be useful. But that was fine, Bilbo kept repeating himself. He had decided to play a Hobbit for a reason, damnit, and it wasn’t the become Middle Earth’s Greatest Warrior!
Or: the fic where Bilbo is a casual-type gamer stuck in Middle Earth, the journey to Erebor is a Quest to try and find a way home, the Elven-King's Halls may have been planned as an Instance, the Ring's description is suspiciously lacking and there is loot to sort through...
