Fic Recommendation

[scarylady]

Hiya all.

I'd like to recommend a really good fic I found.  When people set an alert or favourite for my stories on FF I like to go for a nosy around, see what kind of people I've attracted and what else they like.  I found this on someone's favourite list and it's a lovely, lovely DA2 fic.  And has the advantage of being Hawke/Varric, which makes a nice change.

Title:  Happily Ever After With Goats
Author: estuesday
Pairing: previous Hawke/Anders, future Hawke/Varric
Rating: T
Summary:  (this is the author's summary from FF) The tale Varric told the Seekers wasn't the end of their story. From Orlais to Antiva, the high seas to an isolated farm, Hawke has a long way left to go. One can only hope the goats survive her passage.

DA2 Fanfic - Memories

[miri1984]

These are all out of order, I know. Once they're all done I'll post the order they're meant to go in chronologically, and I'll let you know where each one goes as I post them. This is set just after "Help", so second chronologically in what I'm affectionately calling my "Shameboner" series. And no, I won't tag them as that. Because that would be cruel.

Title: Memories
Rating: T
Characters: Anders, Saoirse Hawke

Introduction post

[taisin]

So... I'm a lurker and an occasional commenter, making a coming out :)
I live in Geneva, French part of CH - so if any one of you need help with Orlesian, feel free to send me a message, I'm as fluent as a non-native can get.

I've also written some short fics for DA:O (all about and around Zevran, who is my favorite character). English isn't my first language, so any constructive criticism is most welcome.

A good argument Alistair/Zevran friendship fic.

Dungeon  f!Tabris and Zevran are captured in Fort Drakon together. Kink meme fill. 

Disapproval  An in-game explanation for Zevran's disapproval in Return to Ostagar.

The Lady F!Cousland character study, Zevran/F!Cousland, Alistair/F!Cousland

Potion After all is done, and the war is over - Wynne still can't stop pushing herself to exhaustion. A friend will help her. Zevran/Wynne

Chapter Sixty-One and Sixty-Two

[lenna_nightrunner]

A Dalish-centric AU gen fic featuring two Mahariel Wardens, one bastard prince, and lingering ghosts.

Title: Vir Lath Sa'vunin (We Love One More Day)
Rating: T
Authors: twist_shimmy and lenna_nightrunner
Post Word Count: 4845
Summary: When their parents died, Tesni Mahariel was left to raise her brother Caerwyn with the help of the rest of their clan. True to their penchant for getting into trouble, Caerwyn and Tamlen went hunting one day and ran afoul of a mirror, of all things. The next thing Tesni knew, Caerwyn had been recruited by the Grey Wardens. As if she’d let some shemlen just take her brother away! Determined to keep Caerwyn safe, Tesni goes after them, and antics ensue. She’ll stop the Blight to protect her family, Caerwyn will help--grumbling all the while--and Alistair will do his best to bond with his tattooed and bristly new brethren. When all is said and done, the blurred lines between friendship and blood bonds will draw them down a path that will change all three of them forever.


Of blood and brotherhood.

inside a flawed translucence.
