Summary
The most interesting cases always come from unknown numbers, this is just a fact of solving crime in Dock Town. Unfortunately for Neve Gallus, Tarquin and Ashur fully took advantage of that fact to set her up on a blind text conversation with someone they think may be good for her. The catch? No asking personal questions - no asking for name, gender, hair color, build, anything that could identify Neve's Unknown. The goal? Get the detective a partner in crime (solving).
Between solving her Unknown case and the one Varric Tethras brought her, Neve's booked and busy. But not so distracted that she doesn't notice the former Dragon that Varric brought with him.
Modern AU with magic. Rated for eventual filth.

Summary
"Ah—perhaps the– Bedroom?"
"No."
No? Emmrich's confusion must read on his face because Lucanis launches into a very irritable, but simple explanation, all his frustration bleeding into his expression and tone. Urgency overrules everything else.
"If I lay down in that bed I'm going to pass out. Take me over the kitchen table."
(In which a very tired Assassin tries to make something of a very strange anniversary. A tumblr prompt fill!)

Summary
Professor Emmrich Volkarin is lonely. His usual company, his son Manfred, is away on tour with his band and not due back any time soon, and now Emmrich has no choice but to be alone with himself as he rattles around the balmy city of Treviso. He’s uninterested in romance, having sworn off love after watching his father lose his mother. He has his son, there’s no need to ever tie his heart to another person.
Meanwhile, Rook Mercar is looking for a patient, diligent lover who doesn’t mind him setting the pace on their no-strings-attached relationship. He doesn’t want love, he wants help getting over his own issues. In essence, he wants a pair of training wheels on his journey of the intimate arts.
A friends-with-benefits arrangement might be the exact solution to both of their problems. Or the beginning of the end of their self-imposed forsaking of the heart.

Summary
In the pew, she traces the cover of her chant book and watches the Hightown crowd separate into its strata. The Harrimans group up with the De Launcets, while the Cavins cling to the Brekkers. No one comes to talk to the Hawkes, same as it ever was. A man brushes up against the pews as he walks down the aisle, and a few leaflets drop from his hand as he passes her, getting distracted with the microphone cord that snakes up the tiles.
“You dropped this,” she says. She drops the pamphlet herself when the man turns around. Because standing in front of her, looking suddenly and grievously ill in his Chantry stole, is Sebastian Vael.
Hawke comes home for the holidays and runs into a ghost from her own past.

Summary
Lucanis wanted one thing out of life, and that was to make good coffee. Unfortunately, the circumstances of his birth demanded that he kill people for money.
Rook was in love with the baristo at Cafe Pietra. Unfortunately, she didn't even know his name.
...
Set in Treviso, Rook is a college student with a crush on the local baristo at her favorite cafe. Little does she know, he's actually a master assassin--one who might just be able to help her prevent the university from shutting down the exchange program that keeps her from being sent back to Minrathous.
(Alternative plotline, kind of a coffee shop AU that plays with elements of canon later on.) -

Summary
Rose "Rook" Ingellvar has a complicated and painful past within Nevarra. As someone who's entire life had been dedicated to uncovering Thedas lost history, she did quite the opposite with her own past and locked it away behind a strict vow to never step within its borders.
Even going so far as to decline the opportunity of a lifetime to study and teach ancient history and magic within the halls of the Grand Necropolis with the honored title of Mourn Watch.
Of course she never could have predicted the dapper Proffessor Emmrich Volkarin and his determination to show her the true Nevarra and the home it was always meant to be.

Summary
Modern AU: Events of Dragon Age II and Dragon Age Inquisition, without Corypheus around.
When Solas woke up, he was dead-set to go along with his plan. Particularly after three Dalish clans told him off, and he settled in Kirkwall, only to discover that the city was caught in a political war about whether to reinstall a Circle of Magi, after centuries since the Chantry declared them abolished.
Everything changed when he took pity on two stranded children, and decided to get his plan on pause. An orb in the back of his office, an annoying dwarf mocking him in his house, he postponed everything until Aisling and Dorian would be grown up and had lived a long life.Things won't probably go according to plan.

But her relatively quiet existence is shattered when the bookstore next door finally opens. The elf who owns it is stuffy, and self-righteous, and she can't stand him.
Especially when he comes into her coffee shop every morning to order a black tea, and grimaces at it.
Every. Single. Time.

What if other members of the Elvhen Pantheon where there as his band-mates? (with some slight variations for humor’s sake).
Imagine the shenanigans, the intrigue, the DRAMA (soooo much drama) that would ensue.Now, throw in a Lavellan. A violin-playing, frilly shirt and ribbon wearing, absolute snoot of an elf being dragged off by her bestie Sera to watch his band play. What would she do? What would she think? WHAT IF SHE MET HIM?
