Title: Couper la Poire en Deux (1/6)
Game: Dragon Age: Origins
Pairing: Cauthrien/Zevran
Chapter Rating: T
Series Rating: NC-17
Wordcount: 3622
Warnings: Alcohol abuse, angst.
Summary: After Loghain's sacrifice and her discharge from Maric's Shield, Cauthrien hits rock bottom. Luckily, a certain assassin has been sent to keep an eye on her - and to put her to good use. (ff.net & Ao3)
Notes: Post-game, set in the same 'verse as the upcoming fic A Story Not About Wars or Heroes. The Warden is one Georgiana Cousland - you'll be seeing more of her in other fic. :)

The title translates to, literally, cut the pear in two - an idiom for compromise, or meeting halfway. All the "Orlesian" in the fic is being translated by Adrienne and IrishLassie.

Thank you so much to smaragdina for being my beta! ♥


( The first time he comes to her, it's the middle of the day and she's still in bed. )

Ooo, that was a fun read! I'm looking forward to more of this interaction.

I've always been intrigued by Cauthrien.

Thanks!

And she's the type of character I absolutely adore. I wish there'd been more of her in-game. As it is, to fic! :D

I'm glad! It should continue into a rollicking good time. :D (Also, I'm glad people aren't being put off by Cauth!angst, haha.)
