I was tagged by @lilbittymonster to fill this out, thank you so much!

I'm a little late with this, but I'll tag a few folks (I think this is going around as an ask meme, too?). If you've already been asked or tagged, I'd love to see a second selection of your favourites! 💖

—01. Divergence of the Heart

Final Fantasy XIV | Heavensward | Wolmeric, Wolcred + background Thancred/Hilda Explicit | 53,996 words | 11 chapters

Aureia Malathar may have made a name for herself in Ishgard, but her deeds come with a hefty personal toll. Despite her victories at the Grand Melee she has never felt more unsure of herself. Her relationship with Thancred—the person she thought knew her the best—is strained, yet she cannot abandon him. Aymeric is falling for her harder with each passing day, yet she cannot bring herself to accept it. All may be fair in love and war, but at least war is predictable. Love, on the other hand…

I wrote this fic last year and it quickly became both extremely personal and also one of my favourite things I've ever written. It's also me poking fun at myself for creating what is probably the worst love triangle based off a couple lines of in-game dialogue from Thancred.

But I think the thing that makes it special to me isn't the love triangle or the emotional entanglements or the drama, it's exploring the different facets of Aureia's asexuality as a sex-positive and greyace person. This is a pretty complex topic and asexuality isn't as straightforward as "no sex ever". I also wanted to approach the erotic scenes with a certain sensibility and pull back the curtain on the romanticism of first times in search of something a little more grounded.

—02. Bound by Faith

Final Fantasy XIV | Shadowbringers | Wolcred Explicit | 28,406 words | 5 chapters

With their enemies defeated, the Crystarium is alive with celebration. Despite the joy around her, Aureia is uncertain about the next steps to take. So is Thancred, for that matter. The puzzle of their lives has sat incomplete for years, but finally this last, precious piece may be able to slide into place.

Okay so. 🥺 This was the first big Aureia/Thancred piece that I finished. I wrote it when I was going through an extremely rough time last year, and I think it was cathartic in a way to have them have all the right things come together so that taking a chance on a relationship finally feels right.

—03. As We Move Forwards

Final Fantasy XIV | Endwalker | Wolcred Mature | 8,140 words | 2 chapters

With tragedy averted and the world in recovery, Thancred and Aureia finally have some time to themselves. It’s nice—good even—to spend time alone, focusing on the things that matter most. But as they depart on a trip across Ilsabard, the question of what comes next lingers in his mind. Where do you go from here? How do you pick up the pieces of something broken and put it back together?

This is a much more recent Aureia/Thancred fic than the previous ones, and I'm enjoying poking at their Endwalker timeline. So much happens. Many things have been said and done, and their marriage has been put through the wringer. It was fun to explore what moving on looks like when they came so close to everything falling apart due to the pressures of outside circumstances. Marriage for them is not a happy ever after, it's just another point on the journey and they both still have a lot of growing to do.

—04. Resistance

Dragon Age: Origins | Tabris x Daveth Explicit, Graphic Depictions of Violence, Major Character Death | 25,370 words | 7 chapters

Numbed by the events that took her away from Denerim, Rhea Tabris arrives in Ostagar to become a Grey Warden. But as she prepares for initiation and encounters an unexpected person, she discovers she can never truly let her past die.

I think this is my favourite DA fic back from when I used to write a lot of DA stuff. I don't know what it is about the Tabris x Daveth ship, it's such a rarepair but my mind latched onto the possibility and wanted to shake it up and down like a salt shaker and see what fell out. Angst and smut, apparently.

—05. Leave Me At the Shore of the Heart

Dragon Age 2 | Bethany Hawke x Anders Mature | 9,332 words | 4 chapters

On the eve of the Deep Roads expedition, a chance conversation between Anders and Bethany sparks feelings neither of them expected.

This one is special to me because it's the last DA fic I wrote. I'm not entirely sure what possessed me to write this ship, but I was turning a few things over in my head while playing DA2 and I just had a thought about the possibilities of character interactions — tl;dr the conversation I made up in my head was interesting and I needed to follow it haha.

Last Six(ish) Sentences

Tagged by @midmorninggrey – thank you!

“Step forward, Daveth,” Duncan said gravely. Kallian whipped her head around in her friend’s direction. It felt too soon. They’d been told nothing about the Joining, no rules, no guidelines. But it felt frightening.

Daveth met her eyes, and gave her a smile. She returned it with a nod, hoping it would bolster his confidence. Speaking felt forbidden.

Yeah... for how long I've had Kallian and her fic rattling around my head, would you believe she isn't even a Warden yet 😂

Tagging (if you want!) @theluckywizard @ammoniteflesh @nirikeehan @hekaerges @theaceofdragons and anyone else who wants to 💕

“Daveth, you’re not as subtle as you think you are,” she said as she stood next to the small lake.  She was clad in her smalls as the cool water called to her like a siren did.  Though Ferelden wasn’t a warm country, fighting the darkspawn was certainly a way to work up a sweat.  The thought of him joining her was intriguing and she couldn’t resist the urge to call him out when she’d heard the bushes rustling behind her.

“How did you know it was me princess?” Daveth asked as he stepped away from his hiding spot.  Dev looked over her shoulder and gave him a lopsided smile.

“Because you’re the only one brave enough to try and spy on me,” she replied as he stood at her side.

“Or stupid enough you mean.”  He grinned but her lips flattened at his humor.  She reached up and grasped his chin in her fingers, turning his face to hers.

“Did I say stupid?  No.  Don’t drag yourself down like that.”  She saw his throat flex as he swallowed and her lips curved into a sly grin.  It had been a long time since they’d had some proper alone time, not since that hasty night in his tent. 

“Is that an order?” he asked with his eyes daring her to try.

“And what if it is?  You and Alistair seemed happy enough to put me in charge after all.”  She smirked in answer to his scoff.

“I didn’t want to deal with the political bullshit.  I’m in charge here,” he said before grasping her wrist and pulling her arm behind her back.  He swiftly turned so her back was tucked against his chest.  She felt every inch of him against her but she merely gave him a wolfish grin before her hips arched back against him.  She could feel the outline of him through his trousers, the shape and size of him had heat simmering in her veins.  “You little.”  Dev used his distraction to break free and she turned to face him.  “Hey now, I wasn’t.”  Daveth backed up until he felt the water at his heels.  He glanced back and Dev saw the moment he realized his predicament.
