Your Brosca is so pretty! I love her nose ring <3

Thank you!!

Her name is Serena and she's my canon warden. She's a sword and shield warriour and she romanced Leliana. She's my favorite character I've made.

Fumbling trying to design a Rook... anyways here's the protagonists of the first 3 games

I'd like the balance of making Rook a human mage but..... idk if I can resist another elf...

Dropped everything to do my Dragon Age gals (gender neutral) in this lovely picrew!

Left to right: Emerald Aeducan (she’s demonstrating a nyan), Kallista Tabris (they��re actually enjoying themselves, don’t get fooled by her facial expression), Serena Amell (she’s doing absolutely fine, haha! why do you ask?).

happy friday! ❝ i know i can’t protect you from everything, but i wish you’d let me protect you from the things i can control. ❞

Here's some Ostwick Circle intrigue and drama for @dadrunkwriting, featuring Enchanter Lydia and a young apprentice Trevelyan!

It was supremely annoying to be treated like a child. Evelyn had not felt like a child even when she was a child, but now that she was fourteen her opinions and observations ought to be taken into more consideration. She expected this scolding from her older Enchanters- the doubt, the tongue clicks, the disappointment- but Lydia?

When it was Lydia the rejection stung all the more.

"I know I can't protect you from everything," Evelyn muttered into her teacup. "But I wish you'd let me protect you from the things I can control." And Lydia needed protection. She might not think so, she might think that Evelyn ought not to worry, but Evelyn worried anyways. So she was going to do what she must to keep those she loved safe, especially when the opportunity presented itself the way it had that morning in the greenhouse.

"Control? Evie, dear, what were you trying to 'control' when you dropped an entire sack of manure on Ser Serena's boots?" Lydia sounded so patient, so calm, and it set Evelyn's nerves on edge.

"... it was an accident," Evelyn insisted. Manure wasn't going to ruin properly treated leather, so if Ser Serena's boots were damaged then she did her favor! But she felt awful underneath Lydia's sharp green gaze.

"You would never waste good fertilizer when the Andraste's Grace needed it," Lydia sighed and set her teacup down on her saucer. "So what is this truly about?"

What was it, really? It was terrible and stupid, a foolishness that Evelyn was ashamed to even speak into the world. She felt stupid and small and angry and- and- and-

She was jealous. She was horribly, bitterly jealous of Ser Serena, with her pretty hair the shade of sun-warmed mahogany and her icy blue eyes and the way she could go anywhere she pleased, anywhere at all, and no one would ever question her whatsoever! And Lydia liked Ser Serena and paid her special attention, even though Lydia was the first to tell her that Templars were dangerous! And that was not all, oh no. Sometimes Ser Serena looked at Lydia overlong, which meant she was paying attention to her and that was dangerous! Dangerous, dangerous, dangerous!

"... she watches you far too closely," Evelyn finally said. "And far too often." She meant it as a warning, but Lydia's eyes lit up.

"Oh?"

"Her eyes were fixed on you throughout the morning service for the past month," Evelyn said, hoping to impress upon her mentor the seriousness of Ser Serena's interest. Templars, especially beautiful ones, got away with everything- and Ostwick was no exception.

"Well. Isn't that interesting," Lydia murmured, but Evelyn caught the coy little smile playing at Lydia's mouth when she raised her teacup to her lips.

"It isn't interesting, Lydia!" Evelyn exclaimed, and she nearly upset her own teacup when she leaped out of her chair. "You always said Templars are dangerous!"

"Oh, they are, Evelyn. Never think otherwise. But this is an interesting development," Lydia assured her. "And a minor flirtation or two won't go awry, so long as you are careful."

A flirtation?! What was Lydia thinking? This was unlike her- Lydia was always so careful! And why would anyone want to flirt with Ser Serena. Yes, she was pretty, and she was polite, and she had never done anything truly objectionable... in fact, she was almost considerate! But she was so very... so very... cold! Aloof! And Lydia was so warm and cheerful and bright, so what did she see in gloomy, serious Ser Serena?!

Lydia, Evelyn decided, had dreadful taste in beaus. That had to be it. But even under the heavy weight of disappointment (disappointment!), Evelyn couldn't suppress the thread of fear that ran through her core. Templars were dangerous. They were guards (prison wardens, more like), trained especially to turn their blades upon their charges without a thought!

"... will you be careful, Lydia?" Evelyn asked, but no matter what assurances Lydia gave her the dread never quite left the pit of her stomach. There was so little she could do to protect Lydia- her mentor, her friend, her family- but Evelyn would utilize every tool at her fingertips to keep her safe.

HOUSE STARK CANONS

Upon hearing rumor that House Targaryen was looking to wed their youngest prince to the eldest daughter of House Nightingale, Lord Stark sought an alliance between the newest of his vassals to solidify their place in the North; and to subtly remind them that they are vassals, not kings, and certainly not dragons. The move would mean that the daughter would not inherit Nightingale Hall and instead become Stark, and the young prince would not darken the North with his dragon's wings. Though his ancestors bent the knee, there is fire in the Lord Stark's heart and it will not be dampened by the overextending hand of the Targaryens. It is not with fondness or kindness that Lord Stark welcomes House Nightingale; it is a strategic move, and a reminder that the North still keeps to the old ways.

It is the first move Brandon Stark has made in the Game of Thrones as acting Lord, despite his decades at the head of House Stark; but will it be his last? There's always been contention between the North and the Crown, and it's been a long, silent hope to reach a state of independence much like Dorne. SITE INDEX - STARK CANON PAGE - HOUSE INFO

Brandon Stark, the Wild Wolf 53 years old | Played by Paige Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North, there was never a doubt in Brandon's mind that he would follow in his father's footsteps. He is a hot-tempered man, quick to anger and to act on that anger. The best swordsman of the Starks, he keeps his blade sharp. There are few things in life he loves more than his children, aside from horse riding and women. In spite of having a lady wife, he is not faithful to the woman. There are quite a few bastard Snows in the North that call him their father. And it is well known that Cassia Umber is his longtime mistress. Brandon believes the north should remain separate from the business of the south.

Catelyn Stark, the Mother of Wolves 50 years old | Played by Hana As a young woman, she had been eager to wed Brandon Stark, seeing him as handsome and dashing. She had dreamed of their life together as Lord and Lady Stark, him holding her close as they watched their children play in the snow-covered courtyard. Whilst he proved to be a great father, Brandon was not the husband she had hoped he would be. He was never faithful to her, openly admitting to his affairs as well as keeping Barbrey as his mistress. Disappointed with her marriage, she finds herself keeping sane by poking her nose in the business of her children; as well as in the company of Benjen Stark. She found solace in his presence over a decade ago, a friendship and companionship she longed to have with Brandon. But that longing has turned to a wish that it had been Benjen she'd been married to, especially since she is uncertain if the twins are Brandon's or Benjen's. She sees similarities of both men in her twins, and it's a secret she's not proud to keep despite Brandon's openness of keeping a mistress.

Alaric Stark, the Quiet Wolf 32 years old | Played by Hana A consistent participant in tourneys, he is usually the winner of the jousting event, should he not encounter his own father. The man has taught him swordsmanship and horse riding well. Only recently betrothed at a later age, he finds himself discontent to be finally held down, so to speak. It is not that he has a love for women like his father, but that he now sees his future as Lord Stark even clearer.

Serena Glover (nee Stark), the Red Wolf 30 years old | Open Canon

Serena was her father's first and last attempt at reaching a hand out to Southron lords. She was offered as a union between House Stark and House Lannister, but in the end she was snubbed as Tywin had his eye on a princess. Instead, she was wed to a Northern lord and has embraced motherhood fully. She has three children with her husband, the third being only a moon old. Though she is red of hair, she is more Stark than Tully and is fierce of heart.

Arrana Bolton (nee Stark), the Dread Wolf 26 years old | Played by Hana

Arrana has always lived in the shadow of Serena, wishing nothing more than to be like her in every way. So, when she heard she was to be wed, she leapt at the chance to prove she could transition into her new role with grace. It has been anything but easy for her. Arrana struggled to conceive, and when she did she lost the pregnancy before she could tell her husband. Finally, after five years, Arrana fell pregnant and made it to term. A beautiful baby boy. If only her husband could have seen him. Her husband passed two moon's before she gave birth, leaving her in a place of limbo. If she had a girl, they'd be sent back to Winterfell as per her late husband's will, but if she had a boy, they'd stay and he'd be raised in his father's image. She wept on during the birth, and has found strength through him in the darkness. She's starting to learn that she has a strength within her, one that Serena might not even have, as she holds her husband's walls up and raises their son to be every bit of him and more. She's taken on the role of head of house and is learning that maybe this was what she was meant for instead of the softness of a lady like her sister.

Torrhen Stark, the Rabid Wolf 23 years old | Played by Dixie

Torrhen is the most wild of all the Stark children. His mother often jokes that she cannot tell the difference between him and his large wolf-dog, from their physical appearance to their manners. He often rebukes his chambers and instead sleeps in the barn with his wolf-dog, yearning for a life outside the walls of Winterfell. The wild calls to him, but he's not yet managed to escape the claws and eagle eyes of his mother.

Robard Stark, the Serene Wolf 23 years old | Played by Caerina

Robard is much the opposite of his twin, even down to the dark curls atop his head. He has the heart of a knight and is the ward of House Tully, where he yearns to seek out the mentorship of any knight that will take him as squire. He wishes to be the first Stark to not only be knighted, but to wear the white cape of the Kingsguard.

Alys Greyjoy (nee Stark), the Little Wolf 19 years old | Played by Dixie

Alys is a gentle, quiet girl. Her septa believes her head to be in the clouds, and often demands her to stop dreaming the day away lest her brain slip out her ears, but she wishes for a life outside Winterfell. In her quiet, she's observant, and is quite aware of how unhappy her parents marriage is, making her a little worried for her own inevitable marriage. She wishes for a prince, someone to come in, in shining armor, to whisk her away to a life of love and happiness... Someone not of the North. She's had enough cold for a lifetime, and does not need it in her marriage bed.

Eddard Stark, the Noble Wolf 52 years old | Open Canon

Ned was taken by Ashara the moment he saw her at a summer's tourney celebrating the union of Princess Rhaenys and her husband, Nymor Martell. He participated in hope to crown her Queen of Love and Beauty, though he was taken down by Arthur Dayne. Brandon encouraged him to speak to her. Many cups of strong ale later, he finally did, and their dance sealed his fate. He sought her hand and then he sought her heart, and he won all of her. Their marriage has been one of love, and to this day he adores her. He knows of his brother's infidelity and quietly admonishes him for keeping a mistress, but he is unaware of Cat and Benjen's affair. He is Brandon's most trusted companion and though he used to often be at his side, Eddard is now Lord of his own keep, the Lord of Moat Cailin.

Ashara Stark (nee Dayne), the Northern Star 46 years old | Open Canon

To this day, there are those of the North that still do not trust the Lady Ashara. They see her as an outsider, a snake, a witch, a seductress... But they do not dare speak too loudly, least the Lord Eddard hears them. Ashara has a fondness for the stars, the heralds of her family's sigil, and believes them to be the weavers of fate. They've been telling her of strange things lately, however...Dark, strange things that unsettle her, and leave her chilled to her core.

Cassella Stark, the Winter Star 24 years old | Open Canon

Cassella was a soul born out of place, or so she believes. She's unhappy that her match cements her place as the future Lady of Moat Cailin. Her childhood was filled with exploration of the halls in Starfall whenever her mother would take her there to visit, but mostly learning what it meant to be the heir to her father. Cassella is often considered more Dornish than she is Northerner in her actions and beliefs, and this concerns her parents as they fear the other northerners will not accept her as the future head of their house, as a northern lady. Cassella is newly betrothed to Daeron Tyrell.

Larra Stark, the Wild Star 21 years old | Open Canon

Larra carries a bow and arrow with her just about everywhere she goes, and has long-since shed her skirts. She's always tagging behind Torrhen on his adventures, no more than a second behind him. So close are they, there has been rumor that they're sweet on one another, but she refutes this. He is a kindred spirit and has taught her to become a better hunter than most the men within Winterfell.

Arthur Stark, the Gentle Star 19 years old | Open Canon

The similarities with Arthur Dayne end with his name. Arthur has little to no skill with the sword, or fighting in general. He has a love for knowledge and spends his days chasing the maester's robe tails. He keeps his own book of tales he's written, of things he's witnessed, with dreams of being a great historian one day. Not wanting to be a hero, he wants to tell the hero's tale. Arthur is betrothed to his cousin, Alla Umber.

Lyanna Stark, the She-Wolf 48 years old | Played by Hana

Betrothed in her youth, Lyanna managed to get out of her own union by sheer luck of her betrothed passing before they were wedded. She never did seem interested in any match, as in her mind there was no need with all her nieces and nephews brought forth by her brothers. They were the only children she needed, and once they arrived, her father gave up hopes for his own daughter. Left to her own devices, Lyanna spent the early years of womanhood chasing wind and adventure, and finding deep friendship in Maege Mormont. Together, they were a force to be reckoned with, and after a time Lords learned not to snicker when they wore swords on their hips in places of womanly belts and ornaments. Their friendship carried well into adulthood until something shattered, and there are rumors that Maege is the reason that, at forty and eight years, Lyanna Stark has never wed, and that it was the bear that not only tamed the wolf, but broke her heart. There's a ghost that follows Lyanna since she's returned to Winterfell, and a melancholy has taken to her where laughter had once been.

A Letter of the Divine

Summary: A letter found in the office of Divine Victoria shortly after her disappearance. Relationship: Leliana/Female Brosca Words: 671 Read on AO3 Lots of angst ahead lol

.

The following letter was found amongst the few possessions left behind by Divine Victoria following her sudden disappearance. Due to the nature of the letter, its existence shall not be revealed to the general public for the foreseeable future. In the unlikely event of a movement developing to support the Divine or if the Inquisition tries to make a political move, the contents of this letter, after being made even more unpalatable to the common people, shall be revealed and distributed as far and wide as we are able.

Serena Brosca

My Queen of Stone

You warned me about how going down this route would only bring me pain, and I ignored you, for even as much as you made my heart beam with joy from every smile you gave me, I couldn't let you dictate what my faith commanded me to do, just as I couldn't dictate what you did with yours.

I wish I had stayed at your side to help you handle the treacherous waters of Orzammar's politics, politics that you shook to the core by becoming a Paragon and allowing the casteless into your House. House Brosca. How proud I was for you when it happened. How blind I was to not see the dread and pain you felt when hearing those words. "I got my house by standing on top the corpses of my people, Leliana. A House for the Casteless earned by drenching my hands in their blood". But how could you not enjoy the power? How could you not see you had the world at your feet? How very naïve of me.

I've kept count of the time passed since we last wrote to each other. I've tracked every second since I last saw your face, since I last saw your lips curving into a smile when I sang for you. How much I have longed for the feeling of your hands of mine, your breasts on my back, your mouth on my skin, our bodies joined in perfect harmony as they sang promises to each other that my excess of pride and the pride you lacked never let us have. I held the world in my hands whenever I held you in them, and I let you go. To serve the faith, to serve the Maker. Well, Justinia is dead, the Maker laughs at me and all the grieving people in this broken word as always. Some god he turned out to be. At least your Paragons are there for you to feel and touch, the solid stone more real than my endless prayers to the dark. Thought that I had what it took to set things right. The blank slate. And in the end all I did was drown myself in a sea of blood and a world of lies, and Thedas quakes in chaos, the Chantry and the faith more broken by my actions than by anything Corypheus or Tevinter ever did. At long last I finally understand the meaning of your words. I also got my own House by drenching my hands in blood.

I've been drinking so much as of late, giving way to base desires to try to find something to make me feel alive, something to make me forget of all the damage I've done and keep doing... and every time I always end up thinking of you.

Perhaps my absent Maker or your Paragons will let us see each other again one day, and maybe then will you be able to forgive me for all I did and for how much I failed you, but life has taught me better than to hope for the impossible. I just hope that wherever you are, that you have found the peace, happiness and love you deserve and that I tried but failed to give you. I now dream of the cliff of my dreams, and I hear the rocks and waves of distant lands calling my name. One last song remains to be sung.

Forever yours, Your Leli

CW: Attempted Suicide.

For as long as Serena could remember, she’d been a prisoner in Academia. One whose whole world was a single brick tower and the ocean out the window. Whose only concept of humanity were The Professor, herself, and the books lining her shelves.

It was because of those books, each a gift from her captor, that Serena knew things could have been worse. Usually, prisoners didn’t get windows, so the awe-inspiring sights of the ocean and skies were beyond them. They didn’t get bookshelves, either, or a duel disk to surf the internet on, a deck of cards to duel themselves with, or enough toys to line an entire shelf.

Finally, while prisoners did get food, water and beds, their beds were hard, their food was foul, and their water tasted of iron. Serena dealt with none of that. Clearly, unlike other prisoners, she wasn’t meant to go mad from boredom or die of neglect. She was just supposed to stay here. Alone. Forever.

Serena couldn’t stand it. Somehow, although she’d never known anything more, she knew in her heart that this wasn’t enough. More than anything, she wanted to meet someone! To talk with someone! To duel someone! She was sure she would love it, she could just tell!

But in a world with only two people, one a prisoner and the other her warden, that was impossible. Yes, at times, Serena did consider duelling him, but only to make his visits less uncomfortable. Currently, whenever The Professor visited, there was a 50% chance he’d just sit there and…stare. It made her feel disgusting.

Just another thing I can’t stand, but can’t change, anyway.

She was so done with it.

“Serena, please come down from there!”

The Professor’s voice was dripping with fear. Together with the wind whipping through her clothes and hair, it made Serena feel invigorated.

“Why should I!?” she snapped back, “what’s the point of living like this!?”

“I don’t want to see you be hurt!”

“What, will it not make a pretty picture!? Treat me like a person already!” her eyes burned, tears stinging down her cheeks. “I can’t live like this!”

If her only option was to stay in this tower, then Serena would rather sink into the sea. Maybe that way, her soul would fly into the clouds and reincarnate into a normal girl. Then, her world would be wide, she’d meet hundreds of people, and she could duel her heart out every day.

All she’d have to do was tip backwards and she’d never be imprisoned again.

Unfortunately, The Professor had chosen that moment to visit, making the job much more difficult than expected.

“I know that I’ve mistreated you,” he begged. “I’m sorry. Will you come down now?”

“Only if you let me out of here!”

“I’ll take you for a walk right now! I promise!”

Serena’s heart ached. Even now, I’m just some pet to you.  

Someone that callous wasn’t worth her final words so, silently, Serena escaped her tower.

For just a moment, she was weightless. Soon, her heart would begin to race and the wind would claw at her hair. For now, though, she was satisfied.

-Then, just as quickly, she jerked to a stop, back slamming into the tower’s brick wall. Gasping, Serena looked dizzily at her leg, where the Professor’s hand was wrapped around her ankle.

She’d failed.

 ***

Afterwards, Serena was forced into bed. Apparently, there was a chance she’d suffered a concussion, so she’d need an hour’s rest.

As expected, The Professor kept close watch. Unexpectedly, however, he also kept his word. Should Serena prove healthy, they would go for a walk and, in the meantime, one more person would join her enclosed world.

“This is Yuri Akaba, my son.”

Serena blinked. Frankly, it was hard to believe someone this morally bankrupt could raise a child. Curious, she gave this ‘Yuri’ a look.

It took everything she had to hide her surprise. From the top of his spiked purple hair to the bottom of his black and grey boots, Yuri looked nothing like the professor. Even his smug, punchable face, while aggravating, was aggravating in a different way!

“He’s adopted,” The Professor explained, “but I consider him family.”       “More importantly,” Yuri added. “I’ll be taking you to my garden. Just as a warning-” his eyes turned sharp “-I won’t forgive any damage to the flowers.”

In response, The Professor did something Serena’d thought beyond him. Something too casual, too normal, too human to be possible.

He sighed. “Relax, Yuri. I’m sure Serena will find them as beautiful as I do.”

Like a charm, Yuri preened, his face lighting up with a brilliant smile. Serena would have gagged, but her attention was focused on The Professor.

His eyes had never once left her face.

 ***

Once the walk was on, Yuri wasted no time. Grabbing Serena by the arm, he dragged her through Academia.

By the time they arrived, her hand felt ready to fall off. Still, as she looked over the expansive gardens before her, she knew the ache was worth it.  

It was as though Academia’s brick floor had been painted over, replaced by a scene from a fairytale. Layers of green grass carpeted the ground, while small bushes, trees, and leafy vines clustered around quaint wooden fencing. Countless flowers, both lonely and in clumps, were nestled among the green. Whenever the wind blew, small, shier flora would show their faces. Altogether, trying to spot the flowers felt almost like a treasure hunt.

But while Serena may have been prepared for the appearance of the flowers, no amount of fairytales could prepare her for the smell. After all, while she could see colours in her room, she’d never once smelled a rose.

Right now, the air swirled with an endless mix of fragrances. At times, their perfume was so wonderful she could taste it! But, at others, they combined into something irritating or bitter.

Nose wrinkling, Serena dived in. Would they smell better on their own or worse? She needed to know the answer.

In the end, she was so absorbed in it that, even when The Professor started staring again, she couldn’t bring herself to care.

I can’t believe that a place like this was just five minutes away. 

Compared to her prison, it was like an entirely different world! She wanted to explore every inch!

Sadly, once the sky went dark, Serena was forced to give up. With how overwhelming Yuri’s garden was, she’d need multiple days to enjoy it!

It made him feel just slightly more respectable.

“Seriously?” she repeated. “You take care of all of them?”

Yuri nodded proudly.

“Do you think that if I asked, The Professor would let me grow one in my room?”

“I doubt it,” he hummed. “Flowers need sunlight.”

“I have a window.”

In response, Yuri just smiled.

Seeing it, Serena’s blood ran cold, but she didn’t understand why. Not until she’d returned to her prison.

A series of tight, heavy grates had been screwed over her window, blocking out the sun and hiding away the moon. Horrified, Serena stumbled into her newly darkened tower, trying to pry the grates off, but all she managed to do was cut up her fingers.

Once more, she was powerless.

“Why!?”

“To ensure you couldn’t jump,” The Professor answered.

-and just like that, Serena knew she was doomed. From here until the end of time, she’d never reincarnate into a bird, never see a flower, and never meet another person.

“What did I do to deserve this?”

 ***

For as long as Yuri could remember, his father had never looked him in the eyes.

Surprisingly, that was an improvement. When they’d first met, Father’s face had twisted with such a visceral, sickening disgust that it’d burned itself into his memory.

To this day, he doesn’t know why, despite that disgust, Father still adopted a nameless, homeless orphan like him. Just that, no matter how cold his voice was, his hand on Yuri’s shoulder was always warm. No matter how absent his gaze was, those who wronged Yuri were never forgiven.

For Yuri, this is ‘love’.

But since he doesn’t know what drives that ‘love’, to him, it’s always hanging by a thread.

He’s fortunate, then, to live at Academia. In the halls of Academia, strength is all that matters and Yuri is very strong.

 ***

After that single, dreamlike day in Yuri’s garden, Serena’s life became a grimy, orange hell of artificial light. Hidden from the sun and moon, day and night bled into one. How long had it been since her last meal? How many hours had she spent in bed? Now, with every moment blurring together, she couldn’t answer.

Honestly, just the thought of living the rest of her life like this made Serena want to bite her tongue off. Even if she tried, though, she knew The Professor would save her. There was no hope of escaping. Not anymore.

At least, that’s what she’d thought. Everything changed when, on another boring orange day, the door to Serena’s tower burst open. Startling, she activated her duel disk as, along with the frigid night wind, two girls wearing Obelisk Blue invaded her prison.

Rather than attack, though, the girl with long brown hair squeaked. “I told you she was real, Asuka!”

‘Asuka’s’ eyes widened. “I can’t believe it,” she breathed. “How could Academia keep a prisoner in such conditions!?”

Her voice was strained with secondhand horror. A possible ally or another lure like Yuri? After some consideration, Serena chose to sidestep the question. Right now, the door was wide open. If Serena could just get past them-

“You won’t make it on your own.”

Hearing Asuka’s gentle warning, Serena stiffened, then groaned. “Was I really that obvious?”

“Who wouldn’t be?” Asuka laughed. “No one would want to stay here.”

“It’s inhumane,” her friend huffed.

“Exactly,” Asuka repeated. “So inhumane that, when Junko told me the rumours, I didn’t believe them! Having seen you with my own eyes, though, I’m glad to have checked!” her eyes blazed. “Junko and I  are escaping Academia! I insist you come with us!”

Holding out her hand, Asuka waited for Serena to take hold.

This time, Serena didn’t hesitate. Even if these girls did turn out to be traitors, making it outside was good enough. Once Serena’d run into that starry night, all the betrayals in the world couldn’t keep her tied down. She’d escape, whether by boat or by throwing herself from the cliffs.

To Serena’s shock, though, her anxieties were unfounded. Despite her keeping watch for the slightest sign of betrayal, from her tower to the docks, Asuka and Junko were nothing but helpful. Even when Serena smelled flowers on the wind and, against her better judgement, turned towards them, their warnings and refusals were kind.

“You’ll be able to see hundreds of flowers once you’re free,” Asuka assured her.

“Besides,” Junko added. “If you lay a finger on Yuri’s things, he’ll hunt you till the ends of the earth.”

Nodding, Serena climbed into their motorboat, eyes fixed on the slowly swirling waves. While she’d seen the sea reflect the night before, ever since her window’d been blocked, she’d had only her memories to rely on. To not only see it again but physically sail through it was beyond imagining. It truly felt like she was travelling through space, ringed on all sides by melting stars.

Serena was so enchanted that, when they finally reached Port City, she was almost sorry to disembark. Still, it was only ‘almost’. The freedom she’d longed for, so close that she could almost taste it, was all she could think of.

Heart soaring, she leapt off the boat and onto the pier, sprinting at full speed towards the city. Behind her, Junko and Asuka followed, overjoyed to the point of laughter.

But when a strange purple light blazed out, their laughter turned into cries of horror. Serena slowed, turning to ask what was wrong, but before she could get a word out, Junko rushed up and shoved her to the side, taking Serena’s place in the light.

For a moment, all Serena could see was her silhouette.

Then her shadow just… dissolved. In the end, only a card was left behind.

What just…happened?    

Serena couldn’t comprehend it, but Asuka clearly did. Sobbing, she staggered forwards, picking a card off the ground and collapsing to her knees.

Asuka’s trembling form, just one flash of light away from disappearing, broke Serena’s shocked haze. Activating her duel disk, she switched it to duel mode, then ran ahead, peering into the darkness. Whoever their attacker was, she wouldn’t let them get away with it!

She hadn’t expected those cruel, pink eyes.

It can’t be-  

“Serena?”

…No, I could never forget that voice.  

It had haunted her during every painful second. Even now, just thinking those words - ’flowers need sun’ - always set her blood on fire.

That day, in his garden, she’d been happy for the first and last time. She’d never forgive Yuri for his part in that!

“Why are you here!?” she demanded. “Why do you have to ruin everything!?”

 Yuri sighed. “You know, people always ask me that. Frankly, I’m getting tired of explaining. Then again,” he added, eyes lighting up with mockery, “I hear you’ve had a difficult year, so I suppose that, just this once, I’ll explain myself!” grinning, he threw his hand out with a flourish. “See, in Academia, the more Heartlanders, Resistance members, deserters, and traitors you card, the better your room! Heartlanders are worth 10 points, Resistance is worth 50 points, deserters are worth 80, and traitors are worth 100!” he hummed, “say, how much do you think a runaway prisoner is worth? My flowers haven’t been getting enough sun, so I’ve been wanting to upgrade!”

Serena couldn’t believe it. “You don’t even have a reason?!”

Not love, not loyalty, he wasn’t being deceived or strung along.

He was free and he used that freedom to hurt people!

Why?!  

Anger, disgust, despair, betrayal, envy -a thousand sickening feelings were swirling in her gut.     

Why me?!  

 ***

One day, an eternity ago, a girl had been barred from the sun.  

“What did I do to deserve this?” she’d asked.  

“You have the face of someone dear to me, but the soul of a monster,” he’d answered.  

 ***

“I’m not a monster!” Serena cried, heart pounding in her ears.

How could she be!? Her entire life, she’d been trapped inside that tower! There was nothing monstrous to do!

Even so, The Professor had punished her. He’d stolen her childhood, stolen her world, and stolen the friends she could’ve made. The one real kindness he’d shown her - a single afternoon of flowers - had been a trap!

If Serena wasn’t a monster, he was just punishing her for being born!

But being born isn’t wrong!  

Killing people and smiling was wrong! Mocking people and laughing was wrong! So how, after everything he’d done, could The Professor let Yuri walk free!?

“The only monster here is you!” activating her duel disk, she slammed her deck in place. “I won’t let you get away with it!”

Yuri stared, then broke out laughing. “Have you ever even used that for real!?”

“No,” she admitted, teeth gritted, “but I’m strong, I know it! Starving Venom and I will prove it!”

“I suppose you can try, but Dragostapelia might disagree.”

 ***

For years, Yuri pushed himself to the limit, broke, then pushed himself again. Misery builds character, or so they say, so whether it was studying till his eyes stung, duelling till his fingers bled, or training till his whole body ached, Yuri never stopped.  

After half a decade, his efforts were rewarded. Rank 1 in grades, rank 1 in duelling, and rank 1 in service -by achieving all three, he’d established himself as the peak of Academia.  

It was a truly monumental occasion. In Academia, the strong had the right to do anything, even question The Professor.  

So “hey,” he’d started, forcing the words through his blocked-up throat, “why do you only look at my pendulum, never my face?”  

The Professor startled, but his eyes never left Yuri’s moon-encrusted pendulum. “You have the face of a monster, but the soul of someone dear to me.”  

“Then…do you still love me?” he’d asked.  

“Always,” they’d answered.  

And satisfied, Yuri had nodded. After all, before The Professor, he’d had nothing. No family, no money, no food, no clothes, no home, just this pendulum around his neck. How could he be anything but grateful for The Professor’s touch? How could he want anything more than his encouragement, his protection, his shelter? How could he be so greedy?  

For Yuri, this is ‘love’!  

Even so, he couldn’t deny it. When he’d seen how much The Professor adored Serena’s face, he’d wanted to rip it off and take it for himself.  

 ***

“Starving Venom Fusion Dragon, attack Yuri directly!”

Roaring, Starving Venom tore through Yuri’s field, destroying Dragostapelia and blowing him into the ocean. At the same time, his LP hit 0, ending the duel in Serena’s favour.

As for said duel, the only way she could describe it was ‘exhilarating’. Just as she’d suspected, despite her lack of experience, she was strong. Strong enough to beat Academia’s best!

Of course, she couldn’t have done it without Starving Venom and, needless to say, fighting alongside them was unforgettable. All her life, they’d been a card in a deck, but, deep down, she’d always known they were more.

Having finally summoned them with Real Solid Vision, Serena was glad to be right. There was a pure, true, and wonderful connection between them. Not even flowers couldn’t compare.

Unfortunately, with the duel over, her time with Starving Venom also concluded. Watching them flake away, horns, teeth, and claws all shattering into shards of light, dug a hole in Serena’s chest.

“From now on, we’ll duel again and again,” she promised, “It’ll be wonderful.”

Starving Venom rumbled low, a sign of trust, excitement, and relief. As they finally, fully faded away, it comforted her.

“You -you beat him!”

Eyes widening, Serena spun to face Asuka. She’d been so caught up in the duel that she’d forgotten the situation!

She raced over. “I meant it when I said I wouldn’t let him get away with it. I just- I’m sorry for not being fast enough.”

“Don’t be,” Asuka replied. “H-he didn’t let Junko duel. It was cowardly.”

“-And I’ve made him pay for it! But do you…need time to rest?”

She shook her head. “I’ve rested enough. If we take too long, the detention officers-”

“Wait!”

Serena’s stomach dropped. Scrambling up, she activated her duel disk. She didn’t know how Yuri’d recovered so quickly, but if he wanted round two, he’d get it!

But when she did catch sight of him, he didn’t look close to ready.

Yuri was soaked to the bone, clothes and hair sticking to his skin. Water dripped off like rain, making small puddles around his feet. More than anything else, though, what struck Serena most were his eyes. Wide, red, and shining with broken desperation, they reminded her of a cornered animal.

“Please don’t go,” he begged, “The Professor will be upset!”

His voice was so -so broken that she couldn’t even be angry, anymore.

“Let him be. I don’t owe him anything.”

“But he’ll -he’ll be disappointed with me! If I’m not the strongest-”

“-He’s always been disappointed with you,” she interrupted. “That’s why he never looks you in the eyes. Maybe, at the start, you didn’t deserve that, but by now, you get what’s coming to you.”

Grabbing Asuka, she stalked off. Yuri tried to follow but, in the end, his injuries were too much. Before long, he’d collapsed with a wet thud, sobbing pathetically.

Still, Serena refused to turn back. After all, only monsters mocked the weak and only prisoners shared space with those they hated.

As of today, Serena was neither. Unlike Yuri, she was free.

Can you imagine my horror when people started posting roleswaps on Day 5 and I realised my fic was, in fact, a roleswap? Anyway. Welcome to Lunarvenom Face/Off. A Roleswap where the central premise is that nothing changes! Fun! Basically, the Yu-boys retain Zarc's face and Zarc is still the villain, but they get Ray's soul and magic jewelry (in this case, matching pendulums). The girls, meanwhile, get Zarcs soul and dragons but retain Ray's face. Ray is still the hero of the original dimension, too. In other words, think of it as Ray and Zarc stealing each other's faces. Taking each other's faces...off, if you would. As a result, Leo has an intense but superficial affection for Serena (he'll never put her in harm's way, but he doesn't think she deserves rights), and a distant but genuine affection for Yuri (he can't look at him, but he thinks he deserves rights). Since he can't see past their faces, he can't fully love or hate either of them.

crossover verse - lady serena arryn

Serena "Bunny" Arryn

The daughter of Ser Arnold Arryn, cousin to Lady Jeyne Arryn, Warden of the East during the Dance of the Dragons, Serena was born the same year as Prince Lucerys Velaryon. Serena was called "Bunny" from childhood due to her first pet - a single pitch-black rabbit named Luna that soon became a colony of rabbits. Known to be slightly flighty, she was nonetheless a kind and energetic young lady who tried to make friends with everyone. Her mother was a courtesan from Lys, from whom Bunny inherited her pale gold hair.

C!Star headcanon

C!Star tiene el trastorno explosivo intermitente o en pocas palabras, ira explosiva, C!Star en la T1/T2 era una persona muy calmada y tranquila pero actualmente en la T3 se ha vuelto más agresiva, y hay veces dónde se molesta sin algún motivo aparente, entonces C!Star al ver que la amabilidad no es algo válido (al menos no para todos) decidió tratar de cambiar su actitud para así tratar de ser alguien diferente aunque aún no cambia totalmente, tiene esos momentos agresivos pero también tiene esos momentos donde está serena, técnicamente bipolaridad. También suele ser agresiva con C!Cap aunque no quiere serlo, al ser mitad Warden tardaría un rató en recuperar la calma entonces ella se alejaría momentáneamente hasta que se le pasara.

Book Review for Wilder at Last

This book! Go ahead and sign me up for the rest because I am hooked! I hate that I am just learning about this series and coming in on book five because I feel like I have stepped into the middle versus learning about the Wilder family (and the amazing women who have tamed the brothers) from the beginning. Again, incentive to start from book one and work my way through – especially with some of the jaw dropping details that mention throughout Wilder at Last! Don't get me wrong, each book is a standalone!

Hanna and Easton go together like oil and water. If there is ever a motivator to get up each morning, it is to see how far under each other’s skin they can get before someone cries uncle. The youngest in their individual families, Hannah has known Easton since kindergarten. Sure, he is attractive and rightfully earned the name “panty melter” but this is Easton! Besides, she has better things to do with her time, energy, and effort – particularly getting the attention of wilderness expert and master chef Bear Warden. When Bear shows up to run his foraging program, to help Wilder Adventures gain exposure, Hanna is determined to make him discover a lot more during his visit. Enlisting the help of her naturally flirty friend Easton, she can’t possibly fail. That sentiment would be true if Easton wasn’t finding himself losing focus and getting inexplicably angry each time Hanna looks like she is going to succeed with Bear. Yes, he does look out for her and that has to be the reason he is being irate – he is just being a good friend, Sure, he simply notices how attractive his female friend is suddenly and has started fantasizing about her; but, absolutely none of this is out of the ordinary (and that is the story he is sticking with!)

I can’t wait to go back and read this series from the beginning. Serena Bell has made a fan out of me with Wilder at Last. Be sure to download the bonus scene! I already loved the ending but that made it even better and solidifies that they were truly made for each other.

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Available today (February 7th). Happy Launch Day!
