LINKIN PARK SOLDIERS FOR CEASEFIRE

“Turn my mic up louder, I got to say something” - Linkin Park - Hands Held High

As the band remains silent on the ongoing violence happening in Gaza and parts of the West Bank, we, the fans of Linkin Park, will not stand in silence as Palestinians face what humanitarian organizations such as the UN have categorized as genocide.

Hospitals, schools, mosques, churches, bakeries, fishing boats, solar panels, and water tanks have all been targets of bombing by the IDF, funded in large part by American tax dollars. Over 15,000 people have been killed, 6000+ of which are children. Electricity and water supplies have been cut off, affecting millions.

We urge members of the band to use their platform and speak up, to not be silent on their tax dollars being used to fund these atrocities. We call for an immediate ceasefire and a safe exchange of hostages. We call for an end to the siege on Gaza, the theft of homes and land, and the systemic oppression of Palestinians. Enough is enough.

Who cares if one more light goes out? Well, we do.

[vulpixelates]

Fjdksjs my girlfriend and I were talking about how dumb it is that Isabela never moves in with Hawke in game, and how she definitely ends up living with my Nora Hawke kind of on accident after making a joke about it and then never leaving.

Eventually, Nora would ask, "Since you've been staying here so often, don't you want to go get a change of clothes or something? You can have a drawer." To which Isabela would say, "This is kind of the only outfit I have. I lost the rest in a bet. Do you really think I'd purposely run around not wearing pants?" And Nora would say, "I thought you just liked the breeze."

[fanfoolishness]

scenes from the Hanged Man (Hawke x Varric)

(Was talking with @bigassmagnet again about Varric and Hawke and this happened.  Wicked Grace, early act 2, teasing and perhaps a little more.)

***

Scene: drinks at the Hanged Man, terrible ale, raucous voices, naked steel and the occasional stench of vomit.

Scene: Min Hawke four pints deep, cheating at Wicked Grace almost as brazenly as Isabela, hiding cards up her sleeves almost as quickly as Fenris dealt them.

Scene: Varric Tethras carefully noting tells, techniques, tricks of the trade.  Varric Tethras tipsy himself, which wasn’t like him.  Varric Tethras, carefully ignoring that fact.

Fenris snorted.  “It looks like I win again,” he said, reaching out and collecting his winnings.

Isabela scoffed, flashing a blinding grin in Fenris’ direction.  “It’s only because I let you,” she said.

“Are you sure it isn’t that I’m the superior player?” asked Fenris.  “After all, I managed to win despite the fact you hid an angel up your sleeve.”  

“Three of them,” said Isabela, fishing them out of her cleavage and scattering them across the table.  “Not exactly up my sleeve, either.  But it gets boring only playing against yourself.  A challenge is far more fun.”

“Varric’s plotting something,” said Hawke suddenly.  “Look at his face.  I can just tell.  He’s going for the long game.”

“Me?” asked Varric, spreading his hands out and adopting a shocked look.  “You would accuse me?  Why, I’m practically a paragon of virtue.”

“Liar,” said Hawke.  “You hate Paragons.”

He had to laugh at that, almost choking on the mouthful of ale he had just taken.  “Good point.  Another hand?”

“The dwarf’s the one to watch,” warned Hawke.  Varric gave her his most wide-eyed, innocent look, even as he palmed one of his discarded cards to hide for later.  Nothing wrong with a little insurance.

Scene: Isabela a few minutes later, flush with her winnings, buying them a round of bitter shots that might have been the Hanged Man’s attempt at whiskey.

Scene: Fenris shaking his head with a wry grin, leaving the rest of them to their debauchery.

Scene: Isabela getting distracted at the bar, flirting heavily with Nora, actually eliciting a smile from the normally dour-faced barmaid.

“Nora, laughing?” mused Varric, comfortably warm.  He told himself it was just the warmth of the bar, though the people were starting to thin out with the late hour, and there was a noticeable draft.  “Shit, never thought I’d see the day.”

“Varric,” said Hawke, giving him a sleepy blink.  She giggled to herself.  “Are you drunk?  You might be drunk.”

“Sure you aren’t talking about yourself, Sparrow?”

“Didn’t say it couldn’t be both of us,” said Hawke stubbornly, a blush about her cheeks.  She looked soft and pretty this way, flushed face, playful grin, leaned over the table.  Had her tunic had so many laces undone, before?  “But you’re slurring, you know.”

Varric squinted at the empty glasses in front of him.  Eh.  Maybe.  “I speak with perfect diction.”

“You curse more than anyone I know.”

“And don’t I do it well?”

“Course you do.”  Hawke gazed down at the pile of cards in the middle of the table.  “One last round?”

“Sure.  Rivaini looks pretty busy, anyway.  I think we’ll have to play on without her.”

Varric dealt, the cards slippery in his hands.  Maybe Hawke was right.  He didn’t often drink this much.  But he’d just gotten some very disturbing news about Bartrand, and if it was true, he had a lot to think about.  Which he’d rather not do.  

He dealt out two hands and picked up his cards, pondering.  He could work with this.

“When did you first start playing this game?” Hawke asked idly, tossing a snake into the discard pile and drawing another card.  Varric watched her hands, ensuring she only picked up one card, not three.

“I was a kid.  Bartrand taught me.  Not because he liked playing, but because it was good for business.  ‘Negotiations are made or broken over this game, Varric.  Remember that.’  He never had a very well-developed sense of taking it easy.”  He shed a card and picked up another.  Act honest now, cheat later.  It was usually a decent strategy, though there were times that called for the subversion of the normal routine.

“My dad taught me and Bethany,” said Hawke.  A knight appeared in the discards, roses bordering the edges.  “And Carver too, of course.  He was terrible at it.  He never cheated.”  A small chuckle.

“Just like you?” Varric asked, taking two cards instead of one.  Just in case.  He was relieved to hear about her family instead.  He’d had enough with his for a lifetime.

“That’s me.  Honest to a fault,” she said, gazing into his eyes.  He swallowed.  Hers were so blue.  Cornflower blue, ice blue, he could never decide on the right shade.  He suspected there was a word for the color that hadn’t been invented yet; maybe that was on him.  Her eyes were so blue he almost missed her pilfering a whole handful of cards.  Almost, but not quite.

“If you expect me to believe that, you’ve got another thing coming,” he said, giving her a broad, easy smile.  Those were his specialty, he’d figured out long ago.  Big, open, welcoming grins: they were wholly unexpected in the Merchant’s Guild, and had become his signature.  People could hardly help but smile back.  He watched the way Hawke’s mouth twitched in an answering grin, and he kept eye contact with her while he squirreled away more cards for himself.

“Oh, do tell, Messere Tethras,” she teased, delicate brown fingers rifling through a stack of ill-gotten cards.  They were only supposed to have five, but they each topped at least ten at the moment, by his calculations.

“I’m going to call your bluff,” Varric said coolly.  He threw down the Angel of Death card.  “Let’s see what you’ve got.”

“I’ll show you mine if you show me yours,” said Hawke in a silky voice.  She reached out across the table, twitching the fold of his jacket back to reveal a few cards wedged under the leather.  She plucked them out of their hiding places, fingertips brushing against his chest.  He shivered, though her hand was warm.

“How did those get there?” asked Varric with a surprised shrug, though his heart raced.  “You must have planted them there yourself.  I’d wager there’s more where that came from.”

Hawke laughed.  “Surely you jest!  But search me if you like.”  She leaned forward, chuckling with a soft slur and further loosening the laces on the bosom of her tunic.  Her breasts weren’t large, but the abrupt increase in cleavage was still an unexpected and welcome sight.  For a moment she paused there, lace ends within her fingers, leaned over her cards.  He could nearly feel her breath on his cheek.

Varric froze.  The warmth of the ale and the whiskey seemed a thousand miles beyond him. His hand twitched, fingers stretching forward.

He forced another laugh.  “Ahh, Hawke, clearly you’re too ladylike to ever cheat.  Sorry to have accused you.”  He leaned back away from her, his hand clenching.

Scene: the dwarf with his hands flat on the table, Bianca in the back of his mind, whiskey-muddled and mixed-up.

Scene: Min Hawke flushing, cheeks suddenly dull red, averting her gaze.

Hawke’s mouth opened slightly as if she wanted to say something.  “Right,” she said eventually, pulling the laces on her tunic tight once more and tying them in a sloppy bow.  “Yes.  Lady Hawke.  That’s me.”  She slapped down a set of four daggers and smiled weakly, not meeting his eyes.

Varric shoved over his pile of coin to her side, taking a deep breath.  “You win again, Sparrow.  And that’s it for me.  Can’t let you bankrupt me, after all.”

“If one night of Wicked Grace bankrupts you, you’ve made some very questionable decisions with your money, master dwarf,” she retorted, sweeping the money into her purse.  She bit her lip, then pulled out six cards from beneath the laces of her shirt.  “Er… not sure how these got here.”

“A happy accident,” said Varric, waving his hand.  He let out a long breath, then gathered up the cards.

Scene: Hawke waving goodnight, telling him she’d stop by tomorrow, her blue eyes luminous.

Scene: the dwarf alone in a crowded room.  The dwarf, wondering what the fuck just happened.

Masterpost of Universes and Fics

An explanation of my two universes, the characters involved in them, and all fics associated with each one.

Rebloggable version. Parked version here.

I have two universes that I write in: canonverse and the self-indulgence AU.

Canonverse

Warden

Harea Mahariel. Dual-wielding rogue. Romanced Alistair. Became Arlessa of Amaranthine and then lived in Kirkwall for a few years where she had a brief relationship with Anders.

“I will always be there to protect you.”

Harea finds out that Alistair is afraid of birds, because “swooping is bad.”

“Kisses because I missed you and you really shouldn’t stay away so long.”

One headcanon that breaks your heart.

One headcanon that mends it.

“You need to wake up because I can’t do this without you.” Alistair & Harea.

“You’re so cute when you pout like that.” For Alistair & Harea.

“And slowly… I was forgotten.” For Anders & Harea.

Hawke

Thea Hawke. Two-handed warrior. Romanced Isabela. Became Viscount of Kirkwall (briefly) and gave Cullen his lip scar by punching him in the face when he came to take Bethany to the Circle.

All Hearts Day: Hawke & Isabela

Inquisitor

Asha Trevelyan. Rogue assassin. Romanced Cullen. Antivan.

Fic: Her canon story is still being worked on, but she’s the star of my sex dream AU “Into the Valley of Dreams (now complete) which gets five scarves fluttered in shock out of five (if I do say so myself). Also on AO3.

Drabbles & Prompts:

“A fluff chapter” for Into the Valley of Dreams. Really just Asha and Cullen playing chess in the gardens while the UST tries to kill them both.

Self-Indulgence AU

My second universe is what I’ve been calling my self-indulgence AU. It started pretty simply; I just decided I wanted to make myself in Inquisition’s CC. I made a little backstory for my character. And then I sat down and started writing and ended up with a 25 chapter fic. I like to think I’ve inspired several other people to write their own self-indulgence AUs. It really is a lot of fun, and it’s a good exercise to write DA stories from someone other than the Inquisitor.

Warden

Sophie Amell. I actually made Sophie long before I started this self-indulgence AU, but she fit in perfectly with the theme. She’s a battlemage from the Fereldan Circle who romanced Alistair, but after he became king, they broke up and she ended up in Amaranthine just in time to romance Anders and Nathaniel.

I affectionately call her fic “Sophie fucks her way across Ferelden” because she has four canon romances, all men I’d let into my pants in real life.

According to DA lore, this branch of the Amell family had four children, all mages. I discuss Sophie’s siblings (including pictures of each of them) in this post.

Fic: She has an older story that I wrote for DA polyamory week 2016, which you can also read on AO3. I’m also working on her main story The Life and Times of Sophie Amell, which you can read on tumblr or on AO3.

Drabbles & Prompts:

“I’m really drunk, please help me.” for Sophie and Anders.

“This is probably a bad time, but marry me?” for Sophie and Nathaniel Howe

“Hope we don’t get caught kiss” for Sophie and Cullen (pre-Blight).

“I know it’s three in the morning but I can’t find my cat” for Sophie and Anders, starring Ser Pounce.

All Hearts Day: Sophie & Nathaniel

“Fight me, you attractive stranger.” Nathaniel and Sophie.

Drabbles & Prompts involving Inquisitor Sophie Amell (otherwise known as Sophie as Inquisitor):

“Great. Perfect. Nice. Fuck this.”

“Pipe the fuck down, asshole.”

Hawke

Gavin Hawke. A storm mage. Romanced Fenris. Somehow became friends with Cullen before fleeing Kirkwall.

Drabbles & Prompts:

A reunion kiss for Hawke and Fenris.

Inquisitor

Nora Lavellan. Rift mage. Romanced Solas. Ran off with him at the end of my fic The Fire and the Flood.

Fic: Nora has her own short, four-chapter fic that goes along with Fire called In My Blood.

Drabbles & Prompts:

A stolen kiss for Solas and Nora.

Waiting impatiently for something for Solas and Nora.

NSFW - in ruins, dom/sub for Solas and Nora.

NSFW - rookery, doggy style for Solas and Nora.

NSFW - library rotunda + breath play for Solas and Nora.

The way you said I love you: in awe, the first time you realized it for Nora and Solas.

Freckle dusted shoulders in the soft glow of veilfire.

OFCs

The real stars of my self-indulgence AU are my original female characters. There are two main ones, Rose and Ceri, and a new addition, Nis.

Rose Wedgwood. Storm mage, spirit healer specialty. She was in the Fereldan Circle when it fell during the Blight, but she survived up in the Harrowing chamber as blood mages slew almost everyone else. She had a huge crush on Cullen before the Blight, but his actions directly after the Circle was saved by Warden Amell made her afraid of him. When she runs into him again in Haven where she’s working for the Inquisition, they have to navigate old feelings and old fears.

Fic: Rose’s main fic is my longest yet, The Fire and the Flood. I’m also kind of working on a modern AU for her, where she’s a researcher at the CDC.

Drabbles & Prompts:

One falling asleep with their head in the other’s lap for Rose and Cullen.

Fireplace for Cullen and Rose.

Mistletoe for Cullen and Rose.

Caroling for Cullen and Rose (modern AU).

“Person A gets way too drunk at the tavern and makes an ass of themselves in front of person B” for Rose and Cullen.

“Did you just… finish?” for Rose and Cullen.

“You weren’t supposed to laugh! I’m so embarrassed.” for Rose and Cullen.

Holding hands for Rose and Cullen.

Sharing a bath/swim for Rose and Cullen.

“Imagine person A of your otp is waiting at a restaurant for their date and is obviously being stood up and person B notices this, just before person A gets sick of waiting and gets up to leave person B sits with them, and even though they aren’t who person A was waiting for they end up having a lot of fun and hooking up.” for Rose and Cullen (modern AU).

“Imagine person A of your OTP coming home from the gym all sweaty. Person B sees this and instantly gets turned on.” for Rose and Cullen.

“I just want you to be happy” for Aurora and Rose.

Cullen consoling Rose after a nightmare.

“Are you jealous?” for Rose and Cullen.

All Hearts Day: Rose & Cullen

“Let’s just kiss already!

"We’re actually being kind of silly for once” kiss

“You’re safe now. I’ve got you.”

Ceri Adaar. Ceri is an unusual character as she’s a Vashoth who was orphaned very young and was taken to a Circle. They didn’t realize she was a Vashoth at first, they just knew she had ice magic. She had a hard childhood growing up in the Ostwick Circle, made more bearable when she met her templar lover, Eva. When Eva died during the rebellions, Ceri set off on her own across Thedas. She joined up with a merc company for a while before ending up in Haven as another healer. She romances Rylen.

Drabbles & Prompts:

“Your date was a bust, but I think you’re cute. Want to hang out?” for Ceri and Rylen.

Slow dancing for Ceri and Rylen.

“Ignore me; I didn’t see anything” for Ceri and Rylen (guest starring Rose and Cullen).

Pregnant Ceri.

More pregnant Ceri.

All Hearts Day: Ceri & Rylen

Linise “Nis” Tillahnnen. Dual-weilding tempest. Another unusual character, as I’ve written her both as the Inquisitor and as a part of the self-indulgence AU.

As the Inquisitor, (which is NOT her canon) Nis volunteered to take her sister’s place in the Conclave. Her sister, the clan First, was a few months pregnant and Nis wanted to keep her safe. Even after she wakes with the anchor, she’s still thankful that her sister is alive and well, and that her little nephew was born healthy.

As a member of the self-indulgence AU, Nis has a darker story. She’s a Dalish hunter who was away from her clan when slavers attacked. Those the slavers didn’t take, they killed and burned. She tracks the slavers, but loses them when they board a ship in the dead of night. When she returns to the place her clan was lost, she sees the Chargers and tries to defend her home from them before she knows who they are.

Bull invites her to join the Chargers, and she does. The rest, as they say, is history.

Inquisitor or not, she romances Krem.

Drabbles & Prompts:

The way you said I love you: “Too quick, mumbled into your scar.” Inquisitor.

The way you said I love you: “Over and over again, til it’s nothing but senseless babble.” Inquisitor.

“I either want to kiss you or kill you right now.” Inquisitor.

Literally anything with Krem. Raunchy if you’re comfortable with it.

Face riding KremQuisitor. NSFW. Inquisitor.

“A kiss we had to wait for.” Inquisitor.

“I don’t have the words right now, so here’s a kiss.” Inquisitor.

“You know damn well why things are the way they are.” Inquisitor.

A sexy touch in a not necessarily sexy place. Inquisitor.

“Krem teaching [Nis] how to read.” Canon.

“I see the way you look at me when you think I’m not looking.” Canon.

Krem approves +9000. Canon.

6, 10, & 27 for Ioren+Alistair, Nora+Isabella, & Amaris+Morrigan

Thanks for the ask. :) Sorry for the late reply, I didn’t have time to get to all of these yesterday but I’m working on it!

6. Who is the big spoon?

Ioren/Alistair: Ioren is a huge cuddle top 90% of the time, but sometimes she just wants to be held.

Nora/Isabela: They take turns in pretty equal amounts.

Amatia/Morrigan: These two also take turns, but Amatia tends to be big spoon the most.

10. Do they have pet names for each other?

Ioren/Alistair: These two are the type that come up with a dozen ridiculous pet names as jokes and cycle between them until either they aren’t jokes anymore or they’ve moved onto the next ones. :’) 

Nora/Isabela: Nora isn’t really the type to use pet names because she loves the feeling of saying of Isabela’s name the most, but Isabela has a few for her.

Amatia/Morrigan: Amatia calls Morrigan her little forest creature sometimes and Morrigan pretends to hate it but Amatia says it with such love and adoration that she can’t help but like it. 

27. What makes you excited about their relationship?

Ioren/Alistair: They’re just so cute together! I started shipping them on accident when I was thinking about this scene I wrote about with them making jokes while a little tipsy, and it turned into them kissing and me shipping Ioren with Alistair more than anyone else lmao. Their sense of humor just bounce so well off of each other and it makes my heart happy. Also, I headcanon them as both having a lot of body image issues and being super understanding and supportive with each other about them.

Nora/Isabela: I love that Isabela encourages Nora to let loose and that Nora is so open to new things as long as Isabela is there by her side. Also, I love the tenderness they show each other, and how much they love every inch of each other. 

Amatia/Morrigan: Ugh, I just love the idea of these two mages who come from opposite ends of what could have happened to them, learning to heal from the trauma they both endured together. The world sees them as cold but they see who the other truly is, they see the softness and kindness in each other, especially when it comes to raising Kieran. It’s so sweet.

2, 8, 11, 16 for your Hawke!

Thanks for the ask. :)

2. Their mother? How do they think of her? What do they hate? Love? What influence - literal or imagined - did the mother have?

Through most of her life, Nora had a pretty okay relationship with Leandra, but it was also pretty complicated. I think Leandra always blames Hawke a little bit for the bad shit that has happened to her. Mostly though, Nora was just always seeking her approval. She wanted to make her proud and take care of her. 

8. How does your character feel about religion?

After her experience in Kirkwall, she doesn’t have the best relationship with the Chantry itself. I’d classify her as agnostic, leaning Andrastian? She wants to believe in something, but she really doesn’t trust the Chantry as far as she can throw it at this point. Religion in general doesn’t have that much of an effect on her personality or morality, though.

11. How do they see themselves: as smart, as intelligent, uneducated?

Nora definitely sees herself as smart. She had to work hard for it, so she’s proud of it. 

16. What does your character do for a living? How do they see their profession? What do they like about it? Dislike?

Before the Blight, she did a bit of traveling and then joined up with Carver at Ostagar, pretending to be a fighter like him. After Kirkwall, she and Isabela are basically pirates? They do odd jobs and sail around, mostly. She really enjoys it; every day is a new adventure and she gets to do it with the woman she loves.

nora/isabela: 2, 6, 18, 23, and 30?

Thanks for the ask, friend! I answered #6 here.

2. What was the first moment that they knew they were in love with their LI?

For Nora, it was when Isabela left with the relic. She was heartbroken, and it made her realize that she had either already fallen in love or was right at the precipice. Then when she came back, she just knew that this was the gal for her. And for Isabela, I think it happened at about the same time and it was part of why she came back, other than it just being the right thing to do.

18. Is their any way they disappoint each other?

Not really! Isabela leaving was a disappointment obviously but then she came back and I think Isabela made it a mission not to do that to Nora again. But honestly, other than something like that, I don’t think Nora could ever be truly disappointed with her. She’s too smitten. 

23. Did you tailor your OC for the other in the romance?

Nope, not really! I kind of knew that I was going to romance Isabela in her playthrough (because I usually can’t resist my favorite rogue oops), but I didn’t create her specifically for Isabela like I’ve done in the past. They just kinda worked out well together.

30. How does their love change as they get older?

Strangely, I don’t think it changes all that much. Obviously they both become more secure in it (Nora especially has anxieties about being less experienced or not good enough), but they stay as passionate and adventurous until the end, I think. After Nora gets out of the Fade, they become more determined than ever to travel and experience as much as possible. I don’t see them ever “settling down” in the traditional sense -- it would be more like them getting their own small little ship and crew together to call home.

Lovey Dovey Prompt: 1, 5, 13, 19, 23. Any OC(s)

Thanks for the ask, and sorry for the late reply! I forgot these were sitting in my inbox, oops. I’ll do these for my main Hawke, Nora. :)

1. Is your OC in love? If so, with whom, and for how long?

Nora has been at least a little bit in love with Isabela since, hmmm... the moment she first saw her haha. It was love at first sight of her threatening some dudes with daggers. She was a goner right away.

5. What is the most romantic thing your OC has done for someone else?

After Kirkwall, she buys Isabela a small ship so they can travel around the world together. For Isabela, that is clearly the height of romance.

13. How does your OC show their love to those that are not their partner(s)?

Nora is the mom friend; she’s always trying to show love by taking care of others and checking up on them.

19. How highly does your OC value love (platonic, romantic, or otherwise)?

Very highly, for all kinds of love! She has so much room in her heart for loving her family and friends, and the people she loves take precedence over almost everything else.

23. What is your OC’s favorite nice thing to do for themselves?

When she’s having a particularly rough week, she’ll head to the market and get herself a box of chocolates, some fruit, and a new book, and then spend the day near the fireplace, devouring her new additions. 

[vulpixelates]

14 nor Nora/Isabella and 11 for any of your RPG ships?

Thanks for the ask!

14. Is there anything they associate with each other?

Any time Nora looks out at the ocean and breaths in the smell of saltwater or sees someone getting into a knife fight in a bar, she thinks of Isabela. :') I think Isabela would associate the smell of herbs with Nora, as well as the crackle of a fireplace and the smell of turning pages.

11. Do they have any inside jokes?

My space gay, Renna Hezal, has a kid that she has basically raised named K, and K is a bit of a kleptomaniac. They just really like to steal things, especially clothes. So sometimes Renna and her girlfriend, ET, leave things out for them to steal and see how long it takes for it to disappear. Bonus points if they catch them, but that's very rare.

[vulpixelates]

6, 13, and 29 for Nora/Isabela! :)

Thanks for the ask. :)

6. Who would they ask if they ever had a threesome?

Hmm. I don’t really see Nora as the type to be interested in that sort of thing (she’s a little ‘nilla bean, really), but if I had to pick, probably Merrill. 

13. When do they realise they should get together?

It was a slow process, realizing that they even had a chance to. Nora fell almost as soon as she met Isabela but for a while she convinced herself that it could never happen because of how different they were, and Isabela did the same. But after Carver was gone and Leandra died, Nora snapped out of it and just decided to go for it. She had nothing left to lose, and all the world to gain.

29. Why do they fall a little bit more in love?

The looks on each others faces when they’re teaching the other something; the way Isabela’s face lights up when she sees a ship on the horizon; the smell of baked goods in the early evening; the quietness that washes over Nora when she is away from the rest of the world and doesn’t have to put on any sort of mask. Little things.

mango?

Thanks for the prompt! This seemed like the perfect opportunity to write something cute with Nora and Isabela. :)

19. — mango 

A calm wash of ocean air filled Hawke’s lungs, seagulls cawing off in the distance as the Siren’s Call II rocked on the open water. The shore of Rivain was no longer in sight but looking over at Isabela, she knew her Rivaini lover felt even more at home out here. 

“Beautiful weather,” she said and took her own deep breath of salty air. “Perfect wind to set sail. We were lucky to get out today.”

The pair sat on the deck in matching chairs, a plate of cut mangoes on each of their laps and Hawke’s halberd rolling slowly around with the waves at her feet. Hawke had arranged hers fancily after cutting them, while Isabela simply tossed them in a pile and began eating right away, sprinkling a strange combinations of powders on them as she went. 

Hawke chuckled as Isabela used her thumb to wipe up a stray bead of juice on her chin and licked it off of her finger. “Luck? I think it was mostly paying off the port authority, wasn’t it?”

“Well, we were lucky they took the bribe. Usually it’s much more difficult to get away from Rivaini authorities. Trust me, I made a living of it.” She glanced over and started to smirk, but then her eyes dropped to Hawke’s hand and frowned. “You eat your mangoes plain that? What are you, a savage? Ugh, poor little rich girl, such little culture.” Isabela reached over and added a bit of the spice blend to a slice of Hawke’s fruit. “There, eat that. You’ll never go back.”

Hesitantly, Hawke tried it and was quickly amazed: now, in addition to the scrumptious sweetness, the fruit had a kick of heat and saltiness. Her face said it all, and Isabela grinned.

“Brilliant, eh? It’s chili powder and some salt. I picked that trick up from an Antivan whore. Terrible quartermaster – I had to demote him to cook, but was glad of it in the end. He sure knew his way around a slab of meat, if you know what I mean..”

“A genius. Give me more of that.” Hawke greedily reached for the bottle of spices but Isabela moved it away.

Isabela tsk’d teasingly. “What’re the magic wooords?”

With a grin of her own, Hawke leaned across the arm of her chair and kissed her, tasting a hint of spiciness on her lover’s lips.

“Well, I was thinking ‘runaway apostate,’” Isabela admitted after a satisfied sigh, “but I think that’ll do.”

22 or 58 for nora/isabela?

Thanks for the prompts. :) I (kind of) combined them! This is my first time writing Nora and Varric, so I’m not quite sure if I did either justice, but uh here goes nothing! 

Content warning: consumption of alcohol and general drunkenness 

22) things you said after it was over58) things you were afraid to say

She was gone. Gone. Up and vanished. How had Nora been foolish enough to think she was enough to stick around for? Isabela was a free spirit – a damned pirate, after all. Nora should have known her time in Kirkwall would come to an end sooner rather than later. 

I guess all I can count on is Varric. And the Hanged Man.

The dwarf slid in a stool beside her, two drinks in hand, and set one in front of Nora. “Come on, cheer up. At least she didn’t take the house and kids.”

Nora took a forlorn chug from her third (fourth?) pint before slamming it on the bar. “This is no time for jokes, Varric,” she sighed, willing away the tears building in her eyes. “She left, with the one thing that will get the qunari to leave Kirkwall. And without me. What am I supposed to do?”

“Brace for impact,” he said with a smile, then quickly wiped it off his face at the sight of Nora’s frown. “Right, sorry. No jokes. Look, Hawke, I’m sure any day now she’ll show up at your door, flowers and relic in hand, with that damned smile on her face.”

“You can’t know that.”

Varric put a hand on her shoulder. “Hawke, I know a great deal of things but most of all I know people – especially people like our dear captain,” Varric said. “Rivaini fixes her mistakes. That’s what started this whole thing, right? She got wrapped up with the wrong people. She just has to get herself out. And then, well…”

“Then what?”

“She’ll be back to fix this.”

“Maker, I hope so.” Nora turned to him, a drunken tear falling down her cheek. “Varric?”

“Yeah?” 

“I think I really love her,” she whispered, voice breaking. “At least I was starting to. Like, real love. Like, a house and a dog and matching rings kind of love. I’ve never felt like this about anyone.”

“I know you do, Hawke. Even a Templar could tell.”

“I don’t blame her for what she did, I just—” She sighed, shrugged her shoulders. “I never got to tell her. I just wish she’d taken me with her.”

“I’m sorry, kid.” The two sat for a moment, finishing their pints with the clamor of the Hanged Man filling in the silence of their conversation, before Varric spoke again. “Oh! I know what will pick up your spirits.”

“I don’t think anything could cheer me up.”

“Even a rousing game of Pin the Tail on Aveline?” he offered with a grin, tilting his head towards the corner of the tavern. “She and Donnic are over there.”

In a split second, Nora went from grinning to bursting into tears and sobbed, “Isabela came up with that game.”
