Summary
When Ivy Patel arrives at the Villa to participate in the newest season of Love Island, she expected at most to walk away with a few weeks of a summer fling. Hell, she expected to not last past the first week. What she found, however, was a possibility for everything she'd thought she couldn't have. But only if she's brave enough to accept it.
Jake Wilson was on a reality television show for two reasons. Well, three. His best friend, Dez; publicity for the restaurant; and a bottle of tequila. His only goal, really, is to survive a few weeks and get some interest going in The Longer Table ahead of the fall food season. What he didn't expect was her. Now Jake has to decide if he's willing to throw aside past hurt and fight for something he needs.
A mostly canon fic encompassing Season/Series 1 of Love Island (Video Game).
(Note: There will be mentions of weight issues, and in the future there will be mentions of past abuse, cheating, and alcoholism. Additionally, as we all know, current cheating will become an issue. I will add these tags as we reach chapters that include them. Also, Levi is a dick and this work will reflect that.)

Summary
Bill's life should have been something much different, if Georgie had lived. It could have been warm, and soft, and lovely. It should be one where everyone gets their happy ending.

Summary
Unwanted is a canon divergent fic in which Josephine solves the matter of post-Wicked Hearts attention by inviting four noblewomen to Skyhold for a month, to compete for Cullen's affections. One of these four women is Lady Trevelyan of Ostwick, the protagonist.
The story takes the style of a period romance (when all its characters are playing along) and is presented as a slow burn over the course of the month, which sees Cullen and Trevelyan go from strangers to enemies to friends to pining fools.
(Content warnings in tags are general and do not apply to every chapter. Specific content warnings will be provided in individual chapter summaries, where relevant.)

Summary
Maybe the man easily brought to laughter, lively and charming and naming cats ridiculous names in the middle of pain and suffering, hasn’t been dead. Maybe he has just been crushed under the weight on his shoulders, and then buried under the rubble of his deeds until even his attempts at jesting became tired and forced.
This does not feel forced.
Second part of the Anders in DAI events AU and the Anders/Cullen slow burn exactly no one asked for but is here, nonetheless. Wherein two men striving to do the right thing learn what that means for themselves and each other. Featuring mage-templar relations, lessons in self-care and self-worth, capital P pining, Dorian and Varric as sassy sidekicks, and the good ol’ how-could-I-ever-deserve-you trope.

Summary
It's just one of those blocks of apartments you find in every city. Full of different people with different lives. Each with their own journey and their own stories to tell. Just trying to find their way in this crazy little thing called life. Meeting different people along the way. Falling in love and out of love, and maybe making some friendships along the way.
This is a Love Island the Game AU fic - each chapter will focus on a different character from seasons 1, 2 and 3 of the game, and some original characters, and their life living in the Island Villa Apartments or working in the local area. There will be cross-overs between characters and it'll return to some stories several times.
This is really a 'I miss the LITG guys' fic...fluffy and light...and I hope you enjoy reading the stories, and if you have any character or cross-over requests between the seasons let me know.
