Summary
When Rook steals an idol from a Tevinter merchant vessel, the Magisters hire the Crows to see it returned and the thief put down. But Lucanis’s contract is not so easily fulfilled. The hunt for her through Dock Town sends the district into chaos and Neve Gallus volunteers herself to set it right.
A pirate, an assassin and a detective. Sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but reality is no laughing matter: there’s blood in the streets of Minrathous.

Summary
Watching the galaxy turn its back on Shepard in the days following her death shattered what little faith Garrus had left in it. He'd been questioning his place in the Hierarchy for years and once Commander Shepard was confirmed dead, that question swelled to question in place among the stars at all. Armed with none of the convictions he'd had the last time he'd turned his back on his life to start anew aboard the Normandy, Garrus packs up to begin again on Omega.
Archangel's crew comes together over the next two years, filled with ex-mercs and ex-cops and ex-revolutionaries, all trying to bring some sort of justice to unjust streets of Omega.

Summary
"Do you know that you lean away from people when speaking?"
Solas blinks and frowns at the Herald as she perches on the short fence outside the small building he calls home in Haven.
"Pardon?"
She nods to Cassandra's retreating form. "She paces as she talks and every time she comes close to you, you lean away." She pushes off the stone wall and approaches him, but stops short with a grin.
"You're doing it again."
Solas has been alone for a very long time. Touch is foreign to him. He mistakes unfamiliar for unwanted.

Summary
“Fuck you, I know we aren’t friends. I know that now, and I probably always knew. I mean, you never even liked me.”
“I like you, River,” he tells the other man.
“Just not enough.”
“Just not more. Not more than the chance she offered me. But that’s all down the drain now, so–” James hopes he can leave it at that, though River isn’t budging.
Part 1: He almost dies. Again. Because three time’s the charm. But one thing becomes abundantly clear– James “Spider” Webb knows something he isn’t supposed to. Normally, the prospect of someone wanting to kill Spider would have River cheering them on, but this time it’s different. The issue uncovers a conspiracy MI5 would rather sweep under the rug, because some things never change. Except when they do.
Part 2: After a tumultuous run in with life, fate, and River Cartwright, James Webb finds himself permanently stationed at Slough House. Things are going alright, until two elderly citizens turn up dead, connected by a mysterious thread. On their way to the truth, both men uncover old secrets and grievances. Not just about the dead.

Summary
*COMPLETE*
The chosen of Bhaal views Baldur's Gate as her altar of worship to her father but can't help but be curious about this Enver Gortash who seems to be turning up everywhere she looks. When she meets him, she knows she's going to kill him. But there's no reason she can't make him lose that tightly kept control first and bring him down to her animal level. **Non-con note** - for anyone who wants more detail about the context of this, it's hypothetical/imagined but wanted to make sure I was careful. Strongest reference to it is in chapter 3.- Language:
