#Mass effect evfra

[naiitiel]

Angaras. My pretty boys.

[most-datable-undatable]

[dirtybiowareconfessions]

Confession: ok but asides from needing bioware to let me romance evfra if they ever make an andromeda 2, imagine how hot it'd be to start it off with angry, steamy sex.

[randomlymad]

Sara "What do you mean, a sniper shouldn't have orange hair, it's what this sword is for" Ryder

[ragingbookdragon]

That one line in ME: Andromeda where you learn about the angara that betrayed Moshae Sjefa and she turns to Evfra and just,

“As you for you, Evfra, we’re not done.”

Like I imagine Ryder just immediately got the “mom’s pissed” stomach feeling and yeeted themselves as fast as they could from the HQ

Twenty Questions for Fanfic Writers

Tagged by @tansyuduri (thanks!) Taggong forward: @cat-in-a-tesseract , @gallows-into-oblivion , @mxkelsifer , @miyriu , @toomanyfanficsbruh

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

Not including unrevealed exchange works I currently have 60 works on Ao3.

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

135,630

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Dragon Age and Mass Effect (ThedasElcor , ThedasHanar)

Merlin (OAFelcor)

Overwatch (MildBeagle)

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

the hope of a new life (38 kudos)

Mass Effect Andromeda Evfra de Tershaav/Female Ryder | Sara I'm always a bit disappointed about this one because I had a whole subplot involving this Ryder being deaf and specifically preferring hearing aids to corrective surgery but I didn't have time to really perfect it before the exchange deadline so I had to scrap it.

a love that burns like holy fire (32 kudos)

BBC Merlin Arthur/Merlin I just started this one not long ago and it's really been neat to see it take off and have a huge welcome from the Merlin fandom, it's been a really cool community to join. The concept for this one is that Merlin is Transmasc, and that he uses magic as part of his gender affirmation, and somehow that leads to all sorts of dominoes falling that changes the entire outcome of the series starting around the middle of season one.

nights of holy fire (30 kudos)

BBC Merlin Arthur/Merlin So this one's actually the nsfw companion piece for "a love that burns like holy fire", I decided to write the main fic as fade to black and have this separate place for sex scenes and I think it's actually been working really well.

Some Kind of Wonderful (30 kudos)

Dragon Age Female Inquisitor Trevelyan / Josephine Montiliyet This is one of my favourites, I think. I wrote it as an exchange treat and it led to me meeting my fandom friend @sandalinbohemia A funny story with that one is that Rowan as an inquisitor stuck with me so much I thought Sandal had specifically requested the name, but I entirely made up the request and the name and had no idea for over a year. The premise is that Inquisitor Trevelyan finds an old clause that allows her to duel for Josephine's hand using a board game rather than a physical duel, and it's a bit of a fix it for the canon Lord Ortranto situation.

Of Wrath and Wanting (19 Kudos)

Dragon Age Leliana/Morrigan Honestly this is a tiny little flash piece I did for a crackship request back on the bird site. It's really neat, but it's only about 250 words. I have no idea how it did so well.

5. Do you respond to comments?

Definitely, I love comments. the main reason I write most of my longfics like a serial in a newspaper or an old cable tv show where I publish as I go is that I can find writing exceptionally lonely. I love to talk about my work, my blorbos, whatever else.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I don't write a lot of angst, and I don't write a lot of endings, but probably Rotten Touch. It's a true drabble (100 words), Overwatch, Reaper/Soldier. Since it's so short I'll include it here.

Jack remembers a time before Overwatch, remembers the love they’d shared, remembers Gabriel’s hands on his body in the dead of night. Dead… Dead… That was the problem, wasn’t it? That past was long since over, and now Jack couldn’t even think of himself as anything but 76. Gabriel Reyes had stopped being Reyes, had stopped being anything, long ago, and the vision in Jack's mind can’t cling to the fantasy. Gabriel’s hands become Reaper’s hands become rotten, foreboding, and cold. Every lover, Reaper, before him, and since, melt into an amalgam of broken promises and rotten touches. Jack’s alone.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

That's a tough one! I really like fluff, but I also tend to leave stories with an indication that life continues so it's a bit more ambiguous than happy. I guess I'd say my Josephine/Sebastian Dragon Afe epistolary series Vael in Vellum, it really has more of a conclusion than a lot of others and I think it's really cute.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not that I know of.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yep! honestly all kinds. I write sweet things, spicy things, things I'd be mortified for people in the real world to know about, all sorts of pairings. I'm a transmasc guy who is gay married and who spent a good amount of time thinking he was a lesbian AND in what he thought was a hetero live-in thing for a while so I feel like I have a lot of the mechanics covered and I have a pretty good imagination. Idk if it's good or not, but people seem to like it, and I tend to like it when I reread it.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I don't go out of my way to, but I do write them, especially for exchanges. I think the craziest one was the Commander 'n Chief fShep/The Iron Bull series I wrote for @ferindencadash (Mass Effect/Dragon Age)

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No. I started translating Moments Between (Mass Effect Sloane Kelly/enbie Ryder), especially since later chapters that I need to rewrite have Ryder speaking an almost creole-like French dialect, but I got lonely :P If folks were interested, I'd be willing to translate some of my pieces, especially the shorter ones, into French or Spanish.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I used to do a lot of chat based role playing, but I don't think I ever officially wrote something with someone. I can be really intense when I'm mid hyper-fixation, though, it probably wouldn't be a good time for a co-writer.

14. What’s your all time favourite ship?

Honestly, whatever one I'm writing at the time. I'm absolutely in love with Sloane/Ryder (Mass Effect), writing fCadash/Varric Tethras for the Tethras n' Trouble series and , HardAssi (Krem/Lace Harding) for Her Safeword is Apples (and she smells like blossoms in the rain) (Dragon Age) both felt absolutely world altering. Now that I'm writing Merthur (Merlin/Arthur from BBC Merlin) for the Elements of Albion series, that's everything. I love ships... all the ships. Give them to Ziiiiimmmmmm.. ahem...

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

I think that I'll keep writing all my pieces as the fixations shift, honestly. Eventually I'll finish more and start more. I guess the most precarious right now is probably A Perfect Fit (HardAssi), but I don't think any work is really doomed. Sometimes I hyperfixate and write over 20k in a weekend, sometimes it takes me weeks to get 500 words out... I think it's more of a lifestyle at this point.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Probably portraying emotions and emulating cadence and mannerisms.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Commas, run on sentences, an absolute gay audacity and disregard for all the rules of grammar...

But seriously probably angst, hurt/comfort, I'm really very "meta" in my writing and I go through all the emotions the characters are going through, very, very vividly, to get it all right, so it can be really difficult for me to finish works that hit the really hard spots for long periods.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I enjoy it! I like it better when the text lends itself to having the translation right there or having the narrator tell us. I've got a few works that use extensive footnotes that are all neatly linked back and forth and stuff and it's just a lot of work to format.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

No idea. The first fandom I published is Dragon Age, I keep a bookmark to the Ao3 import of the fic (I orphaned the account a long long time ago) and it reminds me that I was never as bad as I thought, but that I've also gotten a lot better. In terms of ever written, including role playing days and just loose leaf notebooks I started almost 25 years ago, so I really have no idea.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

In terms of complete works only probably either The Writer and the Racketeer (fCadash/Varric) or Antivan Coffee (Josephine Montiliyet/Zevran Arainai), both Dragon Age. I did a lot of Dragon Age exchanges so a lot of my finished works are in that fandom. I would say right now, though, that I'm really enjoying writing a love that burns like holy fire, it's inspiring a bunch of spinoffs and it's been super great to more actively join the Merlin fandom.

Thank you so much to @tansyuduri for tagging me for this, it was so much fun. Thanks to anyone who read through all this, it felt really neat to do a little interview of myself. Hopefully some people I tagged forward have fun with this (no pressure as always), and I really look forward to writing for you all in the future!

[setavvo-main]

Please let me romance the emotionally distant resistance leader 😭

[onelesstow0rryabout]

Evfra strikes me as the type of guy to be so caught up in a heated argument with you that he instinctively grabs you up and kisses you to shock you into compliance (or silence) without realizing the gravity until its too late.

It made the most sense to his autonomous strategic mind.

Ol any tactic necessary.

Too busy to notice his attractions. Too tightly wound, too distracted by things more important, too passionate to keep it restrained.

Is shocked by what he's done.

Does it again.

No patience for pissing around but can't be straightforward about his feelings. Even to himself.

Tuh.

Evfra: So. Jaal. How are things with the initiative and the Human?

Jaal, fresh back from the latest mission where he watched Ryder utterly fumble a social encounter, fully yeet themselves off a cliff and then pick a fight with the biggest, meanest local wildlife and somehow win.

Jaal:

Jaal: Theyre great 10/10 no notes.

[albinoshepard]

This is the second part of a short excerpt I wrote for the "N7 Month Challenge 2021" ("Snow"), for which in the meantime I unintentionally found a fanart suitable for the purpose. 😁

Evfra: "What are you talking about, Ryder?"

Ryder: "Come on! It's an earthly tradition, all the negative thoughts of the year are chased away on this occasion and we are grateful for what we have!"

Evfra: "We have a war to fight and the front line is getting thinner and thinner. I don't have time for this earthly nonsense!"

Jaal: "Evfra, be reasonable, I'm convinced that a little distraction can be good for the morale of the troops and this earthly holiday is suitable for the purpose"

Evfra: "Mmh. One day you will explain to me how you can be my best warrior and at the same time be completely naive. All right, all right. But I don't want you to let your guard down!"

Ryder: "Oh, we won't! We have thought of everything! And for this very reason we also have uniforms suitable for the occasion! They keep you very warm and are ideal for the Voeld climate!"

Evfra: "Do you want ME to wear that? Oh, stars and skies protect me!"

[skyeknight-hyperfixations]

Stalking Reyes

because I like pretending he's an actual squad mate after meeting him.

Also, the fact that Reyes rides in with the resistance, specifically Evfra, makes me think Evfra has a soft spot for him. I mean. Reyes is an alien, an Outcast to these "initiative species" in Kadara port that's more or less a lawless place and yet, Evfra trusts him enough to a degree to count on him being an official contact for the resistance.

[silurisanguine]

Chapter One - First Impressions. Summary:

Reyes Vidal took one look at the Pathfinder waiting at the bar and realised he was in trouble.

So first chapter is out of my retelling of Aeryn Ryder and Reyes Vidal's romance. From their first meeting in Kralla's Song and beyond. snippet below-

He had to get The Pathfinder's attention and often the best way to break the ice was over a drink. He didn't see one in the Pathfinder's hand as he came in, so wasn't even sure she'd ever drunk from here, but he was about to find out if she could handle what Kralla's song offered. "You look like you're waiting for someone." The woman had already noticed him of course and looked at the drink he offered. He waited as she considered him carefully, her eyes dilating a little, then took the drink with an accepting clink against his glass. "I've got time for a drink" She drawled as she took the whisky and suddenly slammed it back just as hard as he did. Reyes stood for a moment in awe, not expecting a woman to appreciate the hard liquor, but then put on his best face for the introduction. Opening his arms wide, he turned on all the charm he could muster. "Shena, but you can call me Reyes. I hate codenames."

[ageless-aislynn]

Following up to this post about Sara's unexpectedly thirsty 🥵playthrough we seem to be having...

Somehow, I imagine Sara saying, "You," and meaning something ENTIRELY ELSE than the game thinks she means at that moment, lol!

Yep, I'm pretty sure that Pathfinder Ryder has her Thirsty Face™️on again... 😇😂😉
