Summary
Cassandra Pentaghast had always wanted to be romanced, to be swept off her feet. In her fantasies it was always a bold and brave warrior doing the sweeping. She never pictured Solera Adaar being the one to romance her. Yet, her eyes are always drawn to her and her own feelings confuse her. One small existential crisis later and she makes a decision to take that step with Solera.
Solera Adaar never questioned her urges, she lived a mercenary life and indulged when life gave her the opportunity. As quick as the night was over, so was that partner. She never thought about settling down or making a deeper connection to anyone. Until Cassandra Pentaghast entered into her life. Solera knew Cassandra's biases and never wanted to take a step closer unless it was wanted.
After some well intentioned meddling (for both women), Solera decides to lay all her cards on the table.

Summary
dragon age inquisition is for gay people with religious trauma only <3 sorry i don't make the rules!
really tho Cassandra's hard-to-define relationship with the female inquisitor made a big impact on me as an ex-evangelical and i think dai in general is a thoughtful criticism of that world... so this is how I imagined their story might continue. hope you like it xo

Summary
Everly had always been good with odds. She learned quickly from the family card games. How to play her opponent, yes, but also counting cards. Calculating the probability of each hand, of one outcome occurring over another. It was why she was always beating her brothers--the ability to make a split second determination and knowing how much to bet. As she laid awake in her bedroll, staring up at the ceiling of her quarters, she thought of the Seeker.
That was what Everly knew--her odds. And they were not good.

Summary
When others ask Cassandra how she managed to escape from the Fade, she does not know. She just doesn’t remember. All she remembers is a gentle kiss, tender in its touch, on her cheek and then a pressure on her hand forcing her forward. Solas later tells her that he dragged her out of the Fade, even when she was screaming after Lavellan.
// if inquisitor lavellan chose to stay behind in the fade instead of choosing between hawke and stroud and how the choice resonates across time and dreams

Summary
She came down from the mountains late that autumn with a staff in her hand and a great roll of furs on her back for sale. She was the Bear-Woman, Ylva Ulvasdotten, strong in body, sharp in mind. She was then past her thirty-seventh winter, and of an auspicious age. By the count of the Hold it was the tenth winter since the Dark Sky, and the news from the Dwarves and from the Lowland traders was all of war.
The Inquisitor is nothing Cassandra could ever have expected.
It seems as though it may work out anyway.

Summary
She pulls the quilt down from the top shelf of Maura's linen closet where she knows she never goes. It's still wrapped up in the plastic bag she'd thrown it in a year and a half ago, six little squares of fabric sewn together, and a whole mess of batting, the only worthwhile thing she ever got out of high school Home Ec. She runs the little blue pieces between her fingers. It still makes her chest ache, but not in the sharp way it did the night Maura miscarried, when she had shoved them up there in the first place. It's dull, quiet, now. She debates starting over. Scrapping what she had made for Small Tiny completely, throwing it in the dumpster or burying it in the yard and not having to look at it again. But she can't. So she adds instead. Four little green squares, stitched on small and careful, like his hard-earned choppy syllables. Green-Eggs-An’-Ham.

Summary
Maura spent her life believing that she was given up for some flaw she was unable to see, and when she was younger she scrubbed away at her skin, trying to find what part of her was wrong, what didn't fit inside her until Constance noticed and took her to a dermatologist, who made her sleep in gloves until the scratches from her nails clawing at her skin healed. She stopped after that; she didn't deserve that kind of attention, not when lots of other orphans had more problems than she did.
Nothing graphic but this isn't your usual hurt/comfort fluff in here. Probably overtagged given the content.

Summary
Maura looked at ease, the way she hadn't lately. She looked comfortable with Jane's family in a way she no longer was with Jane. It was okay, though. Because Maura had earned her place in their lives. She was so supportive and genuine and generous and gorgeous. It was no wonder everyone loved her. It was no wonder Jane loved her.
Reach down your hand in your pocket
Pull out some hope for me
It's been a long day, always - ain't that right
And, no, lord, your hand won't stop it
Just keep you trembling

Summary
A spate of bloodless bodies keep turning up in the morgue, and Jane is suspicious.
___
"I burn very easily," Maura reminded her.
"Yeah, you said," Jane said, rolling her eyes. She held the umbrella still, though, looking down at the other woman. Pale, pale skin, the kind that would burn easily. Dark clothes - although Jane was also in dark clothes they didn't seem to contrast so starkly against her tanned skin. Red, red lips. Maura looked up again, and Jane looked away quickly, swallowing. She saw Maura's nostrils flare, a little smile on those taunting lips.

Summary
Jane has not met Maura’s eyes in days, her gaze never lifting above the deceptively deep cut the scalpel had made when he had, when Hoyt had… when Hoyt.
Maura goes to Jane, sleepless, after days of not addressing what Hoyt had dug up between them when he'd terrorized them both in a prison infirmary.

Soft and Girly (or six times Maura needed a drink to kiss Jane and at least twice she didn't) by JulieVerne

Summary
Maura kisses Jane when she's had a few drinks.
Not in, like, a gay way. She just looks up at Jane with shining eyes and plants one on her. Sometimes it's followed with a slurred 'I freaking love you', and sometimes it's preceded by it. Jane learns her tells pretty quickly, but she never has the heart to dodge them.
