Fic recs: AU Edition!
combination-nc:
An Analog of Aether (Anders/Hawke, past Anders/Karl) - If you like steampunk, this is The Steampunk AU, much like how Irene Adler is The Woman. This is world building at its best, full of details and easter eggs, appropriate slang and perfect made up steampunk words. The research behind this fic has been extensive and it shows. Many, many characters show up, in character but with...

Scent of a Warden - Trial Run

scentofawarden:
First of all, thank you all for showing such an interest. Seriously. I have warm fuzzies. And now I put my professional hat on.
This is a relatively big undertaking, so I’d like to start with a trial run, to establish a baseline of what I can handle. So I will provide the basic information on price, and how the initial commission request will work:

the-duelling-tophat reblogged your post: Fruits Which Unknown Orchards Bore [Kainewydd Hawke/Serendipity, m]
This is a fic which should be on The Duelling Tophat’s tumblr, owing to the fact it is seven shades of gorgeous and one…
I would send an ask, but you don’t seem to have them open! So I’ll say it here - flailing, and flailing wildly, and thank you so much!

“Isabela?”
The name nearly stuck in Kainewydd Hawke’s throat, and had been living there all evening, behind the playful banter, the jokes and games of cards, the three mugs of Corff’s swill. But she had an idea, and ideas rarely left her alone for long. Catching...

February 2012
So I’m starting to think that I can predict my mood crashes by how much time I spend playing solitaire and what my win rate is.
(Three midterms to go. One tonight, two tomorrow. I’m only ready for the one tomorrow morning. I no longer give any fucks, because I just want to be done with things for a few weeks.)

Pork fried rice with roast pork is about the best thing ever

gyzym:
Right okay so here’s the deal: strong female character? Is an awesome, awesome term when it means “strongly written female character.” Please assume, for the duration of this post, that that is what *I* mean when I’m using it; I don’t know what everyone else means, and maybe I missed some kind of memo or something, but as I am getting the impression that I would have torn that memo up if I...

It's Extra Magic Bonus Happy Leap Year Day!
neil-gaiman:
Please celebrate Leap Year Day in the traditional manner by taking a writer out for dinner.
It’s been four years since many authors had a good dinner. We are waiting. Many of us have our forks or chopsticks at the ready - some of us have had them ready for days. We will repay you by drifting off while the food is being served and then suddenly scribbling something down on a scrap...

I did end up writing tonight - finished another letter of Athenril’s alphabet.
And, uh.
Will need to put on the graphic depictions of violence warning, on Ao3. Aheh… heh…
Also, thank you to everybody who said hi tonight or wrote me something or is working on something - thank you so, so much. <3 Things are a little easier now, so I think it’s bed time. I want to go to...

She started, banging her head on the bunk above her, grateful for the thousandth time this month that she had a room to herself, despite being a mage.
She rubbed the sore spot on the back of her head and yawned, slumped on the edge of the bed in the dark, listening to the small night sounds of the keep. She had grown used to not sleeping, had almost grown to like the familiar...

“Does your Tevinter lover know you’re here?”
Eliara Hawke fears nothing more than herself. Knight-Commander Meredith offers control… if she will only submit. Meredith/Mage F!Hawke.
Warning: Unhealthy power imbalance. Submissive in vulnerable emotional state. Possible dubcon scenario.
More old fic! At one point I intended a sequel to this, and still have it sitting on...

I would love to play “Have you ever?”
I wonder if people can come up with things I have not done.
It gives me something to do whenever I take breaks from writing this update?
It’ll be easy with me. XD

Most of us here are active in fandom. We write, we draw, we gif, we screencap, we mod, we liveblog, we create. We share the joy every way we know how. We also rain praise on the works of others - and it’s well-deserved, because there is so. Much. Awesome out there.
But we neglect our own awesome. Maybe it’s modesty, maybe it’s low self-esteem, maybe it’s just how...

For three years, they burned bright and consumed one another. Now it’s six months after Thea Hawke sided with the templars and gained the seat of Viscountess. She’s sure of almost nothing- but Anders definitely wasn’t supposed to come back.
I don’t always write Anders fic, but when I do… it’s gut-wrenchingly painful dysfunctional emotionally abusive...
