So there's gossip about some version of kinktober over on twitter adding a bunch of nonsensical rules this year, and I am fascinated. Studying this like a bug.

Like, what the hell.

SolRokTober 2025

Hello everyone! First time doing one of these, but I have so many ideas all the time so i wanted to post this. I'm a little nervous because I know there is another one happening at the same time but I just thought it would be neat to add my own!

(also if you know me you know I write primarily angst and needed to make a prompt list with lots of angst ideas lmao)

Edit: forgot to say it starts October 1st

Rules

Anyone can join! Can be with any medium you like, be it bullet points, minific, oneshot, drabble, art, etc.

You do not have to post on the exact day the prompt is on. it should be within a day. Example you can post day 15 on the 14th or the 16th. (unless you decide to merge prompts which is allowed!) if by chance you do not finish, you can still post it later!

You don't got to do all days! especially with all the other events going on, pick the ones you like and go ham!

Please tag all works under solroktober2025 and if you like there is also a collection on Ao3. Please make sure you tag your works accordingly.

Please have fun! I am just doing this cause I thought it would be fun and i want more dreadrook content. hehe. Prompts bellow!

When the guy in ur head won't stop being mean to you.

Not into Solas or Solrook, but the way Solas says "Rook, can you hear me?" during BoA is so sensual for no good reason.

To drown in gentle waters

AO3 FIC LINK.

Summary:

“If it would please you, I could bring someone to keep you company.” Rook picked at the fabric of his trousers. As much as he wanted to keep being stubborn, he was lonely. It would be nice to have someone other than his captor to speak to. “Would they mind? This place isn’t very lively right now.” “I’m sure they won’t,” said Solas, and that was that.

Rook will see the old world, in time. Solas will make sure of it.

A/N: So! This fic is sort of an extended version of Discordant. Or it takes the general idea of the fic, anyway. There are soft moments, but fair warning, it's a pretty sad fic.

Dreadtober 2025

Even though we are still in the full heat of summer, the cold months are fast approaching! What better way to prepare for their inevitable arrival, than by planning how we’ll be indulging into the darkest desires of our hearts?

Celebrate the month of October with 31 days of Solas x Rook inspired fiction, art, and any creative medium your heart desires, following the Dreadtober 2025 Prompt Lists.

Choose between the regular and NSFW editions—or mix and match! Whether you're going for haunted longing or Blight-fueled filth, this is your chance to dive into angst, and horror with our beloveds.

The Rules:

1. This is an event meant to celebrate the Rook and Solas ship and the community behind it. Even though the main focus of the event are Rook and Solas, other Dreadrook adjacent ships like Solrooklassan, Solrookvellan, etc. are allowed. Show us your polycules! Other ships may be mentioned, but in respect of the spirit of the event, do not forget that Rook and Solas must be central to your work.

2. Pick your prompt(s)! There are two prompts, general or NSFW for each day of the month. You may select or combine if you so desire.

3. All works should be new or posted for the first time after the event begins.

4. We do not condone use of generative AI in any way, shape or form. We want to see your creativity!

5. Make a Dreadrook inspired creation based on your choice(s). All mediums - art, fic, vids, gifs, game photography, mood boards, collages, edits - are welcome. Create what you love to create! You may submit multiple works (ex: one for each day) or combine them as you see fit. In case of combining prompts from different days, pick one prompt day to post your work!

6. Post your creation on the corresponding day and use the following tags: #Dreadtober2025 & #TheLighthouseServer, and @thelighthouse-server in your creation!

7. All fanfiction should be added to event collection on AO3, which will be open for submissions starting on October 1 st.

8. You do not need to participate on each day. This is for fun, igniting creativity, and community. Post what you want, what you can and when you can. Late submissions will still be accepted and promoted. Enjoy yourselves and support others!

All content, including Dead Dove, is welcome provided that it is tagged appropriately.

Do you guys have any plans to do a gift exchange event in the future? I think that'd be great.

Hey, hi, hello!

Sorry for a rather late answer, but yes, keep an eye out for an announcement later this week!

Penitent

AO3 FIC LINK.

Summary:

“I hear a distinct lack of celebration from your companions,” said Solas, nose still buried in his book. “I take it retrieval of the artifact did not go well?” “Not exactly,” said Rook, self-consciously scratching his nape. “Elaborate,” said Solas.

Rook fails a mission after neglecting Solas' advice. Solas knows exactly what he needs to both deal with his guilt and ensure he listens to Solas in the future.

A/N: Another Lighthouse AU entry! First spicy fic for that series.

[solrookera]

you know a joke that never EVER gets old is when a character says smth like “I will NOT go to [place] and that is FINAL” and then it cuts to them in that place I eat that shit up every single time

No nuance, no multiple choice option, just pick your favorite game
