Hey everyone. It’s been a hot minute hasn’t it?

Life’s been quite hectic the past few months on my end and I haven’t had the time to really go through everyone’s replies to the survey and contact all those that offered their help. I am truly sorry to keep you all waiting for so long, that wasn’t my intention.

Stuff should calm down a little on my end soon-ish™ but I will do my best to contact the people that offered to help mod as soon as possible (clearly I need the help lol). 

Thank you for your patience and till hopefully soon!

Hello everyone!

Mod @calysto1395 here, coming to you with bittersweet news.

Coming this year, mod @meggannn will be stepping away from the exchange.

@meggannn was the first mod alongside the exchange’s creator damalur back in 2015 and has been keeping the exchange running since then every year, even running the exchange solo in 2018.

A huge thank you to @meggannn from the whole community for all her work over the years! This exchange would not exist without her.

This leaves us with the tall task of finding someone new to help run this event alongside me next year. That is, if there is enough interest to keep it going.

There will be a google form on this blog soon to gauge interest in the exchange as a whole, and for anyone interested in helping to run the exchange to put their hat in the ring.

Many of you have offered their help over the years and we appreciate every single offer. To those people, thank you, but don’t feel obligated to offer again! While running the exchange is not a huge endeavor, it is also not free of work and effort. Please consider whether or not you want to take on that responsibility.

Personally this exchange has been huge fun for the past several years: We have contributed over 100 works of fiction and art to the Varric/Hawke category, and creating that enthusiasm and community is exactly the reason this exchange came to be. Whether or not we continue, it has been a blast to be along for the ride.

Borrowing Ravens (T, 4.4K, hawke x varric)

Hawke is not having a good time. Demons are pouring out of the Fade; the templars have broken from the Chantry; and the father of her child has sent her a mysterious letter by raven about being detained by something called an “Inquisition.” Right when she thinks things can’t possibly get any worse, her son masters the art of climbing. This is not what she signed on for.

Did that work?

No, of course it didn’t. I never was able to get one over on you.
