    --
    Neve's luck always turned. She knew that. Things had been going too well.

    But now all she was left with was bitter agony. Regrets. Words left unsaid.
    When it rains, it pours, as the saying went. And for Neve Gallus, well, this felt like the sort of rain that could drown her. She might even let it sweep her away, with how small she was feeling.

    Summary

    At last, when she was tempted to speak, he rounded on her. "Control yourself." His tone was sharp, his gaze cutting.

    "How did you know I was-"

    “The greater Fade is malleable. This prison- our prison- is no different. The landscape and its inhabitants conform to your emotions and your desires whether you will it consciously or not. So, I will warn you again. You must control yourself.”

    She struggled to her feet and grit her teeth against the unsteady wobble of her knees.

    “And…” He hesitated briefly. “For whatever petty consolation it’s worth, I was also wrong about you.”

    -

    In which a Dalish Rook and the Dread Wolf himself are forced to navigate the perils of being the world's shittiest room mates.

    Summary

    Passion without wisdom to give it shape and direction is as empty as wisdom without passion to give it power and purpose.

    As Rook learns more about Solas, she remembers a past life with him that has intrinsically tied them together even more than what even Solas had planned. Like Varric said, even on his best day, Solas would never see her coming.

    Summary

    Lucanis was going to kiss her.
    That was the only thought going through Rook’s head as she closed her eyes. Only the kiss never came.
    “I…need to clear my head.”
    Rook’s eyes opened and she stared in surprise as Lucanis backed away from her, his whole demeanor apologetic. “Excuse me,” he said as he quickly left the pantry.  Rook stared at the direction he went in shock as she replayed everything that had just happened in her head. The mood was right, she had expressed interest, he had expressed interest in her. Everything was set up properly and yet…

     

    A fic for my Rook's reaction to the expressing romantic interest scene. Chapter 2 is Lucanis's POV.

    Summary

    Exiting the pantry, Rook felt like she was on top of the world. Nothing better to distract from the potential doom of Thedas than a devilishly - demonaically - handsome Antivan Crow, right?

    Now more than a week later - without a word from the Crow in question - Rook finds herself fighting the urge to pour Lucanis’ beloved coffee straight into the void under the Lighthouse.


    or: The one in which I slap a bandaid on the weaker aspects of Lucanis’ romance.
