A little late but another cross post from tumblr.

Can you believe I forgot about the monthly promo posts? The last one I did was apparently for November. And since it’s Fanfic Writer Appreciation Day 💕, I decided to make a little post about the fics I wrote recently.

So when I look back at the list of published works on AO3 since last year, there’s about 17 fics on there. Seven-teen! Don’t worry, I’m not gonna list them all here, that’s way too many. Let me just show off some highlights, fics I’m especially proud of.

I wrote a couple of original fics for exchanges. I really like the format for these, the prompt is in the pairings and from that you can just go wild.

For the prompt “Detective/Phantom Thief with a crush on her“ I wrote Vanish in Steam. A bit of steampunk, a bit of magical artifact, and a tight closet/wardrobe to hide in.

For the prompt “Chaste Paladin/Silver-tongued Scoundrel“ I wrote A Sin to Seek. Let’s just say, the paladin doesn’t stay chaste for long 😜.

I loved writing for the prompt “Jaded Alien Soldier Stationed To Protect Farming World/Cheerful Human Space Sheep Herder“. I wrote a story from an alien’s point of view, who takes interest in this strange and cheerful human. And there are cat-sheep.

The prompt was “Male Space Freighter Pilot/His Ship's Male AI That Accidentally Became Sentient“ and I made it smutty 😜. I love stories where characters have to explore their differences and it doesn’t get much more different than with an AI that doesn’t even have a body.

For fanfic, we’re still firmly in Dragon Age lands. I updated a few older fics too, I swear, nothing is ever forgotten, just occasionally postponed.

Inquisitor Carver Hawke is still going strong, now entering part two of the tale, with a focus on Merrill asking Solas so many smart questions. Lost Templar in Skyhold will continue soon.

One can not read so many fenders fics and not write one themselves. Sunset, Sundown, Sunrise is a bounty hunter AU, where Fenris is a famous bounty hunter and catches Anders. But of course, things are never easy and when Anders gets taken by templars, Fenris has to face his feelings.

Speaking of AUs, the Alistair x Zevran vampire AU is nearly finished. Destiny's Bite. This fic can be summarized as “pining idiots”.

Fresh from the paragon exchange, another AU. A Trail of Particles is a science fiction AU with Lace Harding pining after Captain Cadash on board of the spaceship Inquisition.

I love AUs 😀😀.
