Toward a unifying theory of the blight and its effects by RobotBoyfriend, SidneySussex

Summary
In this paper, we present a unifying theory of the blight that positions it as a corruption of the ancient isatunoll, or collective hivemind consciousness, of the Titans and their descendants. We propose that this isatunoll, sundered from the Titans and cast into the Fade by the Evanuris and then further altered to incorporate the Taint, constitutes the blight as it is known today. Additionally, we propose that the Joining ritual of the Order of the Grey Wardens serves to inoculate those who survive it against further corruption by the Taint via a sympathetic bond with the archetypal isatunoll. Finally, we provide reasoning to suggest that the Joining can only be survived by those with latent genetic heritage derived from the Titans themselves, whether directly (as with the dwarva) or via the ancient elvhen people who constructed physical bodies from lyrium, the blood of the Titans.

A series of Viperquin ficlets and drabbles. All silly. Goof vibes only. Microdosing fluff and crack. It's good for the soul.

[Podfic] Snatched from the jaws of an ending world by RobotBoyfriend

Summary
They have Ashur.
They’ll unmask him, in front of the whole city, the whole Imperium. They’ll kill him slow. They’ll hang his body on the walls, like the Magisters of old used to do to traitors and cowards. Because Ashur decided to slip away and try to bring down a pack of blood mages alone, even though he’s eaten up with Blight.
Because he didn’t tell Tarquin.
(In which Ashur almost throws his life away, and Tarquin can't bear this any longer.)

[Podfic] Who Said Sorry Better by RobotBoyfriend

Summary
“Highbloods. You just can’t help what you think about the rest of us, can you?”
The words rang in his ears as he left the pawn shop. Rain had started to patter down over Glandivalis Square, refilling the potholes and divots in the cobblestone road that had barely dried out from that morning, and further dampening Tarquin’s mood. His conversation with Rook had helped to calm his ire at Ashur, but now it was replaced with guilt at how he’d snapped at his friend.
His friend...
Was that even the right word?
___
Or, what happens when Tarquin and Ashur actually compete to see who can say sorry better.

Summary
Tarquin’s voice was a splinter of broken glass, shattered and brittle. “I’m–there’s… inside of me…” His arms came up to curl defensively around his head. “They put something inside of me."
Ashur answers a question pivotal to any serious relationship: would you still love me if I were a worm?

"Bets in!" Marisa calls, swinging around the corner and catching the wall with a hand to steady herself. "Get your bets in!"

"Sparring on the roof," Marisa replies.
Everyone knows. Everyone except them.

Summary
Tarquin has two bosses: the Divine at his day job and the Viper at his other job. This is mostly fine, because however Tarquin feels about the Viper, he knows he could not give a flying fuck about the Divine. Unfortunately, if there’s one thing Tarquin is good at, it’s creating problems for himself.
