Summary
“Just a bit,” Pansy coos in his ear, her nails following close behind as she runs them through his hair. “Just to take the edge off.”
He shouldn’t be doing this. They shouldn’t be doing this. But gods, he wants it. He wants it so bad he can’t stand it—his body no longer feels like his. Higher thought becomes a luxury, the world and his responsibilities forgotten in favour of the feel and smell and taste of her. Just a system of nerves and veins that all intertwine, pulsing louder and louder with need. It doesn’t matter where they are, or who might be around, or whether or not it’s a smart idea. Neville has lived his life trying to do the right thing, to be the right person, and Pansy cares for none of it. She takes what she wants, and he’s more than willing to give.

Summary
I set the fire, Mizu had confessed thickly into Taigen's ear, when their mouths were still filled with ash, eyes half-sealed with tears from acrid smoke.
Did you have a choice? Taigen had asked as a response, hauling them forward another step across a bridge, toward another life.
Mizu had fallen silent—so silent that Taigen lifted his chin in worry that he had drawn his final breath without Taigen's permission.
No, the not-samurai had told him then. I did not have a choice.
And Taigen believed it.
Fool.
+
Post season 1 canon divergence.
Taigen crosses the bridge to pursue happiness with Mizu instead.

Summary
Solas flips another page. She wonders if he's actually reading. His breath sounds almost artificially even-keeled. His hand strokes her hair and her back with a practiced absentmindedness. His chest is feverishly warm against hers.
A bead of sweat drags down his spine. She catches it with her finger and smears it across his shoulder blade. He does not react.
-
The game goes like this: Solas will finish reading a chapter of his book, and Eira will sit very nicely and quietly in his lap.

Summary
“I suppose you’ll want to come in?” She is proud her voice doesn’t waver.
It’s not an invitation. Tom will have to ask.
She knows he hates asking.
