Summary
Gods, it had burned. First, in the air, then in the water, then in her.
She remembered waking up on a makeshift bedroll. In truth, it had been little more than a small pile of hay with a thin blanket thrown on top. Sprawled out on her back, everything had just ached at first. Then, she had tried to lift her arm.
~*~
Rook, a 20-year veteran of the Grey Wardens, engages in multiple verbal altercations with the Dread Wolf and at least one physical one.
EDIT 6/12: Smut chapter now marked with (*) in chapter title!

Summary
The Inquisitor rubbed her chin. "Are you proposing a frontal assault or something else, Maevaris? I'm afraid neither I nor the Divine have the forces to spare. They're too tied up in the fighting south."
"Oh we know, dear,' Maevaris smiled dangerously, "I am not proposing a siege. Not at all. I am proposing a party."
~*~
Rook sacrificed Minrathous and the guilt is destroying her. She seeks absolution in the form of crashing the world's grossest Venatori party at the Archon's Palace. -

Summary
Gideon Nav is navigating that awkward phase of life where she's transitioning from an Orphaned Child to an Orphaned Adult. Meaning- she officially has no more nuns to piss off, no more classes to fail, and no more safety net (however dubious it may have been). As luck would have it, she immediately lands herself a job assisting the groundskeeper at the Drearburh Estate. Sure, the house itself seems to emanate a deep hatred of all things good and, sure, the only member of the family seen in the last seven years is the eerie teenage daughter but Gideon has a plan. To make enough money to get out of town and never look back.

Summary
“Don’t think I haven’t noticed you slipping out of Varric’s suite this morning.”
Hawke laughed, as if that was the single most ridiculous thing the world had ever heard, and challenged with a wide gesture at the quarters they were in, “Who amongst us hasn’t spent a night in Varric’s bed?”
“In his bed?” Isabela gasped, evidently shocked at the revelation, and then whistled with respect. “I’m lucky if I get the floor!”
or:
How Hawke and Varric finally learn to say what they really mean.
Canon-compliant Hawke/Varric long-fic spanning Dragon Age 2, Inquisition, and The Veilguard.
Solavellan is a side pairing in the later chapters. This is really a Hawke/Varric story about love and found family, miscommunication, assumptions and why you shouldn't make them, and persevering in the face of hopelessness.
