Thank you so much for writing for me! <3 I've got a mix of prompts and my likes list is pretty big, so there will hopefully be something we both like! I'm pretty easily pleased, especially since almost everything I requested this time is a rarepair. I really love tropes and fluff and angst and canon typical messes, so just have fun with it!

Nan Chan

Cang Ji/Jing Lin

This is such a ridiculous novel with such a ridiculous premise (Sad nap-boy turns out to be a god who got patricidal! Hungry fish gets a human form and turns out to be way more than a fish! All sorts of vore references! A bell!) that gets incredibly real incredibly fast. I love it. Jin Ling is very sad and very tired and kind of mean and kind of struggling to deal with both resurfacing memories and Cang Ji's increasing hotness. Cang Ji stays very hungry and possessive and down for a fight, but how that gets expressed changes as he (literally) grows and starts to figure out what his emotions actually are. Every time he reaches peak "You are a fish, sir" he does something charming or says something that you can just tell is going to be straight up knives when we learn what happened before the book started.

Prompts:

  • More of any of the moments where Cang Ji accidentally flustered Jing Lin.
  • Cang Ji having time to corner Jing Lin more and try to get him to explain the porn in the brothel (maybe ending in more avoidance and Jing Lin getting flustered a lot, maybe ending in actual porn or explanations)
  • Them having to wash up in a river or getting caught in the rain or something and Jing Lin getting really flustered over all those muscles and all that wetness while Cang Ji is having fun water time (and maybe flirting a lot once he realizes Jing Lin is paying attention).
  • Someone going after Jing Lin (attacking him, flirting with him, anything really) and getting a whole lot of possessive Cang Ji in response.
  • Jing Lin getting hurt, and Cang Ji both caring for him and licking the blood off.
  • Canon typical vore threats and possessiveness and blood drinking.

I'm following the translation at http://jade-rabbit.net/bl/nanchan/nanchan-synopsis/, so please no spoilers past that!




 

Scum Villain

I love all the dumb characters in this dumb book and all their OTTness. Airplane wrote such a mess, but the worldbuilding that resulted from that makes for an amazing setting with so many things that can just get pulled out whenever. I'm fine with either assuming that some things were smoothed out to make actual sense when PIDW became a real world, or with leaning into the craziness. There is nothing that is too tropey for this canon.

I'm totally fine with focus on Shen Qingqiu's canon death (even if everyone thinks he's permadead at that point), SQQ exploding his core, and that sort of thing.

SVSSS specific DNWs are at the bottom (click here)

Liu Qingge/Shen Yuan | Shen Qingqiu

  • Arguments! Bickering! Two peak lords being really dumb at each other! The novel hinted at that and then didn't give us much of it.
  • Stuff with the other peak lords, especially if it's either post-relationship or during that state where they are constantly flirting and both very much insistent that they aren't doing that.
  • Missionfic. There's so many ways that missions can go from straight up fights to more mystical things to plots that have SQQ cursing at Airplane in his head.
  • Without A Cure causing issues at just the wrong time (or the right time).
  • They had to have so many quiet moments due to LQG helping clear SQQ's meridians after the poison (Or not so quiet, if they were arguing before that).
  • LQG dealing with SQQ's sudden personality change. We found out in the Airplane extras that they definitely think he's lost his memories, do they do anything beyond just shrugging and letting it stand?

Mobei-jun/Shang Qinghua

  • SQH's poor beleaguered demonic-protection-squad or other ways that MBJ is trying to protect him (whether SQH is still oblivious or figures it out)
  • SQH solving situations and rescuing MBJ with cleverness.
  • SQH getting into problems and MBJ rescuing him with violence.
  • All the dumb ways that they talk past each other where it's so obvious MBJ is trying to flirt but SQH is taking it the entirely wrong way.
  • Demonic culture and Cultivator culture and odd quirks of the world they live in! Especially if SQH is having to regret the way he wrote it at some point now that he's living it.
  • Really elaborate rituals (pre or post relationship).
  • Really tropey rituals because SQH wrote them and now he has to live them!
  • Post-canon wedding!
  • SQH adjusting to being officially a demon lord's spouse, and MBJ adjusting to being "welcome" (sort of) on Cang Qiong.
  • I'm fine with Bingqiu being a part of fic for this one, as long as it isn't more in focus than the Moshang!

Yue Qingyuan/Shen Jiu | Original Shen Qingqiu

  • SJ's sniping and all their one-sided arguments. He's terrible and I adore every bit we got of him despite that so honestly just "more of that" is perfect.
  • All the canon divergences. Shen Jiu refusing to go to Cang Qiong. SJ finding out about YQY's qi deviation. Roleswap. Demon/Cultivator swap.
  • SJ not being accepted into the sect because he's too old and how YQY reacts to that. Does he leave as well? Does he think SJ doesn't need him anymore and stay? If he tries to leave does CQ hastily adjust and SJ ends up on Qiong Ding or as an outer disciple or do they stick to their guns?
  • PIDW YQY getting to time travel/loop.


TGCF

This series was so much. So much. Not just because of Hualian being adorable but also because of so many side characters omg and all their relationships with each other and all their drama. Turns out heaven is an absolute mess and it's only half Jun Wu's fault!

I'm requesting my rarepairs only, but I'm honestly also fine with ensemble fic that focuses on one of these these relationships without it having to be "shippy enough". I'm also totally fine with however much or little Hualian you want to put into a fic for this, as long as the fic is still mostly focused on the requested rarepair! I adore them, I just didn't have any prompts for them other than waving at canon like "more of this" and I am neck deep in desperate rarepair hell.

Feng Xin/Jian Lan & Cuo Cuo

  • JL staying alive until FX ascends, resulting in FX bringing her and Cuo Cuo up with him to the heavens.
  • FX figuring out about JL before he does in canon and all the complicated ways that could go. Maybe the same as canon? Maybe not?
  • Post-canon, them slowly figuring out their relationship. JL is very jaded and clearly thinks that moving on is best, but the two of them have gone 800 years without falling in love with anyone else. Maybe it really is past the point of going back to anything normal and they need to work out how to co-parent and be friends, or maybe they can work back to an actual relationship now that they've got the chance.
  • Cuo Cuo running off to cause trouble and JL coming to FX for help finding him.
  • I am blatantly stealing this prompt from a friend who I think is only partially responsible for it, but: Mpreg where cleansing Cuo Cuo is so complicated that the most logical way to accomplish that is for him to be immersed in spiritual energy in a womb. Which means Feng Xin. For potentially a lot longer than a normal pregnancy. And how they both deal with that (and any effects that has on how he's worshipped).

Ling Wen/Yushi Huang

  • Low key flirting while getting things done.
  • Working together on some sort of complicated thing while the martial gods make a whole mess all around them.
  • Everyone else thinks that Ling Wen taking time from her busy schedule to go to the Rainmaster instead of making the Rainmaster come to her like everyone else has to is just politeness and respect, but no it's absolutely flirting.
  • Ling Wen having a lot of respect for Rainmaster's absolutely brutal pragmatism and self-sacrifice that led to her ascension.
  • The three tumors being very Them and Rainmaster being very impervious to their whole dynamic.
  • Ling Wen getting involved with Rainmaster post-canon due to Pei Ming trying to figure out his emotions and reactions to her.

Shi Qingxuan/Pei Su

  • Post-canon with the two of them both figuring out the whole how-to-be-mortal thing. Maybe they just keep crossing paths, maybe Rainmaster is starting a collection of ex-gods, maybe Pei Su ends up getting sent by Rainmaster to help a thing that's in an area where SQX is begging.
  • Pre-canon, with SQX flirting (accidentally or on purpose) and flustering PS.
  • Pei Ming attempting to matchmake.
  • Pei Ming or Ling Wen trying to help out SQX for SWD, and Pei Ming trying to get Pei Su back as part of that and getting it all tangled up.
  • Meeting each other again as mortals (or almost mortals) and having the weirdness of both of their positions having changed so drastically, especially considering how things went down in Ban Yue.

Quan Yizhen/Yin Yu

  • QYZ finding YY's trail before canon. Whether that just results in YY having his version of a horror game where he keeps barely fleeing the person after him, or if QYZ actually catches him and YY has to now deal with him on an emotional level and acknowledge that QYZ doesn't want him dead.
  • QYZ catching YY after pulling off his mask.
  • QYZ's quest to resurrect YY. And YY's reaction when he manages it.
  • YY's slow realization that QYZ just actually adores and respects him a whole lot.
  • Canon divergence where after QYZ ascends he just...assumes they'll still be fighting together and sharing the same territory, and it resulting in a much different dynamic (especially if the mortals start to ship it)
  • Actually you know what that's its own prompt. The mortals shipping it after QYZ ascends and pairing up their statues and making increasingly awkwards stories up about them.


Star Wars The Old Republic

This game has eaten so much of my life. I love how much of a giant complicated mess all of the force user stuff is in the game and how much more complicated that gets once KOTFE hits! There are so many antagonistic or could be antagonistic but aren't type ships and they're so absolutely my jam.

I've only played past Iokath once so I don't have any prompts for that (nor for Arcann's canon romance because I am terrible and haven't actually played it yet), but there's no need to worry about spoilers so please feel free to use my likes or adjust my prompts to include the later time period things as well!

SWTOR specific DNWs are at the bottom (click here)

Arcann/Male Jedi Consular

  • There as so many dynamics this can have depending on what point in the story they're at. Whether it's before they even meet, or when Arcann is obsessing over the Consular during those five years, or when Arcann is convincing himself that the Consular is just a meatpuppet for his dad, or if it's between his defeat and him joining the Alliance and the many many different ways you could take his emotional journey there, or if it's after Arcann joins the alliance and is a weird mix of subordinate/ally/former-enemy. And that's all without even taking all the different ways that the Consular's personality and Jediness could come into play.
  • I really really love the Consular's Act 1 shield ability (I have a thing with the whole 'power comes with a potentially deadly price' trope) and anything to do with force healing in general.
  • Accidental force bonds especially for this one.
  • Scars, especially Arcann dealing with having stabbed the Consular and the knowledge that the only reason he hasn't killed the Consular twice over is due to his father intervening.
  • Senya getting involved.
  • Canon divergence when they meet sooner, or where Valkorion takes a different approach to interacting with the rest of the galaxy and they meet in a very different context.
  • Them having to work together (either pre or post Voss) and Valkorion making things extra tense by showing up to loom.
  • Having to work together while still very definitely enemies (maybe they get trapped somewhere and the Consular is able to convince Arcann to stop fighting him for long enough to get out? Maybe Arcann agrees because he thinks it'll be easier to capture him right before they get out than now?) and again with Valkorion trying to mess this up.

Darth Acina/Female Sith Inquisitor

  • Two very powerful women being incredibly smart and flirting with and/or threatening each other.
  • Arguing and flirting in the middle of Dark Council meetings
  • The SI needing to get some artifact or something and trying to sweet talk Acina into giving her access.
  • Acina calling on the SI for field help or for information she knows the SI has but isn't giving easy access to.
  • Sith Politics.
  • Working together to try to figure out where Vitiate's spirit fled to.
  • Figuring out what their new dynamic is during KOTET where instead of Dark Lords on equal standing, they're an Empress and a rebellion Commander (or even later when the SI might be another Empress or have the most powerful army in the galaxy)

Male Sith Warrior/Theron Shan

  • Enemies to allies to enemies to allies to faked enemies but only Theron knows that to allies and wherever lovers might fit into that whole confusing emotional timeline.
  • Any sort of canon divergence or roleswap or meet-at-a-different-time.
  • Rescue missions set during the time periods where they're supposed to be enemies.
  • Theron finding something Sithy and having to go to the Warrior for help with it between Yavin and Ziost.
  • Rescue missions in general actually!
  • Wrath breaking rules and/or social mores on purpose and just daring anyone to stop him. Theron pretending like he's totally not breaking rules but maybe also breaking rules.
  • Being forced to work together as enemies, whether it's when they do that in canon or if they have to team up earlier or later as well.
  • Agreeing that they need to stop the relationship thing after Rishi...and then sneaking around on Yavin anyways.
  • The weirdness of being being allies without having their old positions waiting for them to go back to, and probably never being able to go back, during the Alliance.
  • Canon divergence where the Warrior doesn't become Wrath (and thus isn't able to deal with Baras how he does in canon), but runs into Theron anyways.


Prey

I fell ridiculously in love with this game and its characters basically from the moment I picked it up. The whole premise is amazing and painful and I love it. (I had to cheat to get through it, but the plot and relationships were worth it!)

I'm fine with any way you want to interpret how the ending means the characters ended up! My favorite is the "everyone is alive in another room" interpretation, but this game is go great for angst and there's a ton of neat AI implications that could be done from that so feel free to go there too!

Alex Yu & Morgan Yu

  • Hello complicated sibling relationships!
  • Pre-game Morgan trusting Alex less and less, and Alex frantically trying to get his "real" sibling back.
  • Pre-game Morgan trying to confront Alex over what's going on in Pyschotronics.
  • Pre-game Alex trying to figure out what Morgan is up to and not being sure if he can even predict them anymore because their personality is so different.
  • Alex contacting real Morgan during the events of the game trying to talk them through things and just generally doing everything he can to keep them alive and moving.
  • Alex trying to predict what Original Morgan would have done and struggling with trying to be both them and himself in mental arguments about things to figure out what the actual compromise should be, because Morgan isn't Morgan anymore.
  • Morgan having a breakdown during one of the confrontations with Alex. Or Alex having the breakdown.
  • Morgan managing to get up to the escape pod (with no intention of leaving) trying to find Alex and just losing it when they realize it's just his tracker.

Typhon Morgan Yu & Anyone

  • I'm grouping these all together, because the theme of any of these is really the humans having to deal with not-quite-Morgan-not-quite-Tython after the end of the game. There's a lot of ways that that could go depending on which of them it is, what their relationship with Morgan is, and what sort of baggage they're carrying.
  • Tython Morgan trying to deal with feeling like they know someone, based on the memories they were given...and that person isn't interacting with the same assumptions since technically this isn't a Morgan they've ever actually had contact with.
  • Morgan themselves interacting with this strange mirror of them, and whatever complicated mess could come with any combo of Tython Morgan & Morgan or Tython Morgan & January because they've all got a slightly different version of "Morgan's" personality...and none of them are the Original.
  • Anything with Alex, whether that's angsty or fun or them just trying to work out a not-Morgan relationship.

Sarah Elazar/Female Morgan Yu

  • Slight (or major) AU where either Elazar follows up on her intentions to confront Alex about Morgan being an unwilling test subject in the loop phase, or does a more detailed investigation. Maybe she finds some of the clues that Morgan is leaving for themself or January/December or is just generally able to get more information about what's going on, and what she does with that.
  • As an extension of the above, maybe instead of Morgan having a day of blank neuromods, Elazar manages to get authorization to break things up a day early and pulls Morgan out of the simulation. And then things start going to hell so now she's got a very confused VP with Tython powers who wants to go fix everything (and figure out wtf) to babysit, and she's got to make all the choices about how much to tell a Morgan who has no clue what they've done. On top of trying to keep everyone alive.
  • How the outbreak went down from Elazar's perspective. We know they ended up in the cargo bay but not much about how they got there or what led to it.
  • During the events of the game with the real Morgan, the two of them trading notes trying to figure out everything that was happening and Morgan struggling to deal with what seems from their perspective like a betrayal by Alex.
  • Just general exploration of their relationship, whether it's antagonistic tension or if they actually work fairly well together, and what Elazar thinks of all the Morgan is up to.

Thank you for writing for me! <3 I've got a lot in here, but I am honestly one of those people who is completely happy with everything from fluffy curtainfic to smut so please don't worry too much about sticking exactly to the prompts if you've got another idea!

The requests are in no particular order (except sort of grouped by who's in the pairing) and everything I asked for is something I want just as much as everything else!

(I left two spots open so I can decide if I want to add a few things in tomorrow, so if there's a request that doesn't have a spot here it probably means I added it last minute and will get it up here asap after work on monday)

Default names for the player characters requested here:
Alim Surana
Garrett Hawke
Herah Adaar
Mahanon Lavellan
Maxwell Trevelyan

Varric/MHawke
  • I am just all about all the loyalty and friendship and trust and history that's tied up with these two.
  • Varric having revelations about their relationship after Hawke almost dies at any of the points in canon when that can happen.
  • Hawke being bad at relationships in general but trying really really hard.
  • The time they're apart in Inquisition forcing both of them to really confront their feelings.
  • Hawke helping Varric with Viscounty things.
  • Hawke attempting to help Varric with Viscounty things while Aveline or Bran ends up actually helping.
  • Everyone else thinking they're already in a relationship.
  • Hawke being very upbeat around everyone else, and then letting the act go once he and Varric are alone.
  • The two of them bantering back and forth while one of them is seriously injured.
  • Mage!Hawke hiding an injury from everyone else but asking Varric to help him out with healing i



MHawke/MLavellan

  • Cole trying to matchmake.
  • AU where Lavellan somehow ends up in Kirkwall during DA2.
  • AU where Lavellan isn't the Inquisitor but ends up wrapped up in that whole mess anyways.



MHawke/Dorian
  • (These are mostly Purple Hawke prompts because that was in my head but if you've got fun Blue or Red ideas please go for it!)
  • They've got such very different communication styles and ways of dealing with people that it could lead to all sorts of wonderful arguments and misunderstandings.
  • The two of them having to go on a mission together and just being ridiculous, especially if it ends up in arguments that are half flirting without either of them being fully sure it's flirting until it really kicks off.
  • Things going badly on a mission and either the ensuing H/C or the change in tone as they have to get serious.
  • Alternatively, Hawke just being super ridiculously flirty from the getgo.
  • Explicitly casual sex that they are both definitely on board with being totally casual (that's a lie, they're emotional disasters). Maybe they don't even manage to keep up the casual even through the entire encounter. Maybe they do and then they're both so distracted by being Casual the next time they go out on a mission that one of them gets hurt and things get emotional.



Iron Bull/MTrevelyan

  • Non-Mage!Trevelyan dealing with family shenanigans.

  • Bull trying to keep his distance emotionally while he's still with the Qunari.
  • Trevelyan having issues figuring out if Bull is into him or not during the early game, or with the explicitly casual nature of their relationship after they first start sleeping together.



Solas/MTrevelyan
  • I usually ship Solas with some level of antagonism, but a Trevelyan who is just all about asking stuff and winning Solas over despite everything could be super cute and kinda tragic.
  • All the issues Solas could be having with accidentally falling for someone in this situation, especially accidentally falling for a human.
  • Cultural dissonance, especially if Solas is avoiding explaining exactly what is weirding him out.
  • Solas pining because he "can't" start a relationship (whether he's admitting that's what he's feeling or not).
  • Emotions coming out into the open during that last scene in Trespasser.
  • Solas showing up to help with something post-Trespasser and trying not to get spotted.
  • Solas secretly sending information about something Dagna can use to make Trevelyan a prosthetic.



Cassandra/Female Adaar
  • The two of them being really bad at emotions.
  • Alternatively, they might not know how to deal with things from personal experience but Cassandra has Read Books About This and she's gonna awkwardly try to use them as a guideline.
  • Also Alternatively, Adaar being really flirty and charmed by Cassandra from the getgo.
  • Or really ANY combination of those
  • Arguments about how recovered is recovered enough to go out and start hitting/shooting things again after one of them is injured.
  • Teaching each other techniques and traditions for fighting and camping and fixing things.
  • Early on, Mage!Adaar being kind of freaked out after hearing about what Cass can do to a mage who recently drank lyrium, so either forgoing lyrium to her detriment or overdoing it to prove that she's Not Scared.



Cassandra/Josephine
  • Courting and silliness and cuteness.
  • Working with each other for some reason pre-Inquisition.
  • Josephine courting Cassandra all romantically and properlike.
  • Flirting over the War Table.
  • Accidentally flirting over the War Table.
  • Cassandra getting super protective when the attempted assassinations are going on.
  • Getting all fancy and dressed up and dancing somewhere, maybe at the Winter Palace, maybe something post- or pre-Inquisition.









  • Humiliation.
  • Planned public declarations of love (outbursts are fine).
  • Cheating or suspicion of cheating that isn't immediately shot down.
  • Non-canon permanent major character death.
  • Custom Names for Player Characters if default ones exist. (It's fine to have their personalities different! It's just the names that throw me out of the story)
  • Noncon, fear of Noncon, or focus on past Noncon.
  • The Inquisitor choosing who stays in the fade or major focus on that.
  • The Inquisitor, Hawke, or the Warden being anti-mage.
  • The Chargers dying.

Thank you for writing for me! <3 Most of these are pretty open ended and more on the angsty side, but I really love all of these characters so I'm sure to love whatever you write for me! I'm fine with any variation on how much the hate/angst lasts through things and if it's resolved, so as long as it's hitting the theme at some point don't worry about hitting it "enough" or anything (but also don't feel like you have to resolve it).

I didn't add my smut likes in here because I tend towards fluffy smut and didn't want to prompt something that wasn't appropriate to the exchange, but if you've got a hatesex (or a non-hates idea and want to check then my smut likes rarely change in most of my other letters! My general likes were a little edited to pull out fluffy stuff but otherwise are mostly the same as normal.

I am completely fine with focus on canon deaths, grief/grieving, worry about the possibility of non-canon deaths, or focus on the times in canon that the main character kills themself whether it's characterized as suicidal or as a heroic sacrifice. (I figured I should mention it since a lot of people DNW that stufff)

There's about five million places in the game where either of the roles the twins end up in could really easily go into angst or hating themselves or just not feeling like they were doing good enough, especially since things start with characters very clearly doubting that they can manage the job. I prompted a bunch of the ones I thought of for both siblings, but if you thought of something else along the same theme and want to go with that instead please do!

I tried to have prompts for both Scott as Pathfinder and Scott as non-Pathfinder! Don't feel stuck to those if you think of something else though!

I'm totally fine with focus on the canon deaths, speculation about the possibility or fear of non-canon deaths, or focus on the implications that the Pathfinder ordering SAM to kill them on the Archon's ship could have.

Since I DNWed custom names, the defaults are Scott and Sara. I'm not picky about sticking to the default appearances though.


M!Scott & Self
  • Insecurity and self doubt and questioning due to either something specific going wrong or just everything being a mess and not fixing it fast enough or any of the specific things that happen in canon.
  • Overstressing/overworking
  • Feeling like he should have done something more to change how things went down on Habitat 7.
  • Or for a non-pathfinder, feeling like Habitat 7 (or any of the missions that went iffy/badly) might have gone differently if he'd been awake to help.
  • Wishing that his dad had chosen the greater good instead of Scott's life. Maybe because he thinks his dad would have a better chance of keeping everyone alive, maybe because of just not wanting someone to die for him.
  • Wishing that they had woken up Sara first in moments (extended or brief) where he thinks she would have done a better job
  • Non-pathfinder Scott freaking out over being 'useless', whether due to having been in a coma for awhile or due to the long recover period
  • Non-pathfinder throwing himself into tech stuff (or some other specialization) and anything he can do while on the Nexus. Maybe putting back his recovery and feeling bad about that and also feeling frustrated that he literally can't help as much as anyone else even though he should have the expertise/ability.
  • Non-Pathfinder struggling with having been unable to fight back against the Archon after he was kidnapped. (Whether just up to the last part, or feeling like what he was able to do during the final fight wasn't enough).
  • Sara and Scott both having conflicting insecurities and having trouble comforting each other because of that.
  • Anything to do with the Pathfinder ordering SAM to kill them on the Archon's ship. Whether that's actual emotional issues that went into it (maybe making it easier to jump into that sort of risk), other people making assumptions about it that are stressing him out, lingering physical issues, getting upset about causing issues for SAM with that order, or a non-Pathfinder Scott freaking out over Sara temporarily dying.
  •  
  • Optional Ships:
  • (These are completely optional! I'm only adding them in case you'd prefer to write shipfic or pre-ship. I promise I'll be just as happy with Scott focused gen as I will be with something shippy):
  • Scott/Kandros, Scott/Jaal, Scott/Liam, Scott/Jaal/Liam, Scott/Peebee, Scott/Efvra

This one is a little bit complicated because I really do love the dynamic they ended up with in the book, but there's so many things that could be confusing/frustrating/suspicious to Liu Qingge and we never really know since the book isn't from his POV. The prompts here are mostly exaggerating or expanding on those moments. I'm still not totally solid on characterization for this canon so if you had another idea please feel free to go with that instead! <3

I'm totally fine with focus on Shen Qingqiu's canon death (even if Liu Qingge thinks he's permadead at that point), SQQ exploding his core, and that sort of thing.

I only requested the "/" tag because I know unrequited is a MAJOR thing with LQG and I didn't feel like it would be fair to DNW that with the & tag and potentially catch someone off guard. 'Basically gen' is totally fine for this one too as long as there's not reciprocated background Bingqiu (I ship that too but since this request is Liu Qingge focused I'd rather not get it) or anything else that would make it read as definitely unrequited. If both Luo Binghe and Liu Qingge are still stuck in the pining zone still then that's totally fine. And background Bingqiu that's clearly heading in a Liubingqiu way is great!

I'd you're doing something set after the canon relationship happens and don't want to go in a poly direction, I'd prefer that the canon relationship just never started. (I realize that is a big thing that I'm just yadayadaing past, but since all the prompts below are for before the canon relationship starts, I'm assuming that you've got an idea if you're going this direction <3)


Liu Qingge/&Shen Qingqiu
  • Adjusting to Shen Qingqiu's new personality and coming up with logical reasons why the person he knew might be acting this way and then having reality shoot them down.
  • Taking longer than he did in canon to believe Shen Qingqiu isn't up to something, and coming up with reasons why something underhanded must be going on, maybe following Shen Qingqiu around surreptitiously to try to catch him plotting.
  • Picking up on little things Shen Qingqiu does to deliberately annoy him and it throwing him back into that old headspace even though it's a very new sort of annoying.
  • The aftermath of Shen Qingqiu choosing to die for Binghe (or any of the other choices Shen Qingqiu made that harmed himself instead of letting Liu Qingge fight for him)
  • Moments of resentment during the five years both related to the above thing and at being the one who has to fight Binghe, because he can't just leave Shen Qingqiu's body there.
  • The aftermath of Shen Qingqiu's plant body getting revealed (both for him faking his death, and for him knowing about Shang Qinghua)
  • Getting hints at Shen Jiu's whole deal with Yue Qingyuan and trying to reconcile that with Shen Yuan
  • All of the above prompts are Liu Qingge hating Shen Yuan type prompts, but if you can think of any good ideas for the other way around please feel free to go for them!

I feel like "disasters" kind of encompasses them? There's SO MUCH in canon with these three, most of it just hinted at or implied, some of it very very visibly on screen.


Arcann & Thexan & Vaylin
  • Moments of resenting each other in their childhood
  • Arcann & Thexan getting manipulated into competing for their dad's affection over and over.
  • Arcann & Thexan's personalities getting more and more different as they age, especially with Arcann going more and more darksided and unpredictable.
  • Arcann seeing Thexan like a mirror of what he used to be, after his injury
  • Arcann & Thexan arguing over Vaylin's situation
  • Thexan guilting Arcann for not visiting Vaylin
  • The aftermath of Thexan's death
  • Vaylin hating Arcann for killing Thexan and bringing it up a bunch
  • Arcann constantly questioning what Thexan would have done
  • The aftermath of Arcann betraying Vaylin
  • The aftermath of Vaylin's death and/or the aftermath of everything going down at the end of KOTET in that mindspace and Arcann trying to deal with a lot of negative emotions without falling again
  •  
  • Optional Ships:
  • (These are completely optional! I'm only adding them in case you'd prefer to write shipfic or pre-ship. I promise I'll be just as happy with gen as I will be with something shippy):
  • Arcann/Male Consular, Arcann/Male Smuggler, Arcann/Male Bounty Hunter

  • Unrequested Dubcon.
  • Spanking
  • Kissing after throwing up.
  • Blowjobs after anal.
  • Rimming.
  • Fisting.
  • Sounding.

  • Andromeda DNWs
  • Major focus on anything to do with Kadara, Exiled Colonists, Colonists turned Raiders, the Nexus Uprising, ect. This includes colonists who were exiled but went their own way, mentions of anything involving exile, and any nameless colonists-turned-raiderlike-minons. (EXCEPTION: Fixits or Jien-lived scenarios). It's okay to have the effects of it in there (eg: the Krogan Colony or Kandros being head of security), I'd just prefer to avoid directly dealing with that whole plotline as much as possible. It's just a personal dislike thing, so don't stress if you need to briefly reference something! I'm mainly trying to avoid fics with it as a major focus or things that would have to reference it repeatedly enough that I couldn't just ignore it.
  • The non-Pathfinder twin resenting the Pathfinder twin.
  • The Pathfinder resenting SAM.

  • Scum Villain DNWS
  • Unrequited/one-sided (It's fine to not have anything actually confirmed, especially for the prompts set earlier! I'm just DNWing explicitly unrequited.).

  • SWTOR DNWs
  • Death from the either/or situation at the end of KOTET.
  • The "save two leave one" escape pod thing.

Thank you for writing for me! <3 I tried to give a variety of prompts but if you don't see a prompt you want to write and have an idea that you think I'll like, feel free to go for it!

Please don't feel obligated to try to match the personalities of player characters in the prompts. Getting something that matches my interpretation is great but getting a fun new one means that I have a reason to replay the games from a new perspective, so I am very sincerely fine with anything that doesn't hit a DNW.

I've been trying very hard to trim down the rambling/over-specification in my prompts, so if one is shorter than the others that doesn't mean I love it less it just means I was successfully able to wrestle it into less of a mess. <3

I've played past KOTET once on each side, but not with any of the classes here because my raiding mains got priority. I know there's definitely some fun stuff that I'm not going to be able to prompt here because I don't know how it goes in a romance, so if there's something from those chapters that you think will work really well with any of the themes of stuff here (or that I guessed wrong on), feel free to use it!

I know that there aren't any defaults for this but I'd prefer player character classes were called by titles, canon aliases, nicknames, things that companion calls them, ect if possible. (If not no worries!)


Andronikos/M!Sith Inquisitor
  • Canon missions and the weird shit the SI gets up to.
  • Loyalty sneaking up on Andronikos.
  • Them ending up in a nebulous relationship where they're sort of in a something but haven't actually talked anything out.
  • Andronikos getting dragged to Official Sith Events.
  • Andronikos finding the SI early on in KOTFE (or being one of the people helping Lana rescue him initially).
  • Andronikos trying to parse the whole Valkorion situation based on what he knows of other force ghosts that the SI has had attached to him.
  • That five year gap where the SI is just gone and Andronikos doesn't know if they're really dead or if they've abandoned him (or if he abandoned them) or if they're somehow captured somewhere and then they just show back up.



M!Sith Warrior/Theron
  • Enemies to allies to enemies to allies to faked enemies but only Theron knows that to allies and wherever lovers might fit into that whole confusing emotional timeline.
  • Theron coming back to the Alliance after his fake betrayal.
  • The temporary nature of their relationship during SOR or KOTET/KOTFE
  • The two of them having different ideas of how serious their relationship is.
  • Theron having five years of distance from their SOR relationship while for the Warrior it's still very recent.
  • Canon divergence where someone else is the Outlander and they meet during KOTET stuff.
  • Canon divergence where they meet up earlier than Manaan.
  • Having to figure out what their new dynamic is once the Alliance is officially a thing that isn't going away anytime soon, as they both realize that they aren't going to be able to go back to their old roles after this.



Lana/F!Smuggler
  • Lana having to deal with the Smuggler being a problem for the Empire between Yavin and Ziost
  • Meeting before Manaan
  • One of them getting injured while they're supposed to be enemies and the other turning up or meddling in the situation.
  • The Smuggler flirting in inappropriate situations.
  • Other people's reactions to a Sith Lord being this loyal to someone like the Smuggler.
  • Lana trying to explain what makes the Smuggler so special during the five year gap.
  • The Smuggler still having a ton of control over the underworld from the end of her storyline and Lana making use of that.












  • I'm fairly vanilla so if it's really out there and not something mentioned here maybe I'm not the best recip, but even most of the stuff in my DNWs is more of a "gonna scrolllllll right past this part" type thing rather than a "gotta backspace out of the fic" type thing so don't stress too much about it!
  • Smut for me is mostly about the leadup, the emotions, the skin contact, the conversations during, and how it affects their relationship.
  • You can get a little rougher or dubconnyish if you want as long as both characters are really into it. Clear consent (spoken or unspoken) before genitals get directly skin-to-s involved is my biggest thing.
  •  
  • Likes/Prompts:
  • One of them pulling back for a few moments during sex and admiring the other one.
  • One of them deliberately taking aphrodisiacs (with everyone in the ship aware and consent given ahead of time) as a way to lose control a bit.
  • One of them deliberately letting themselves get affected by sex pollen (in order to finish a mission or something) having negotiated ahead of time exactly how they would deal with it.
  • Accidental sex pollen or heat incident where no sex happens (just a lot of h/c and doting)
  • Accidental sex pollen or heat incident in an established relationship.
  • Attempts at safe, sane and consensual... but can be poorly negotiated or just straight up a bad idea but they're into it.
  • Trying a new kink and it being too much for one of them and they have to stop and do something different.
  • Arguments leading to sex, continuing during sex, or interrupting sex.
  • Attempts at dirty talk leading to emotional conversations or outbursts.
  • Serious emotional conversations interrupting sex (or happening during ongoing sex)
  • Character's guard going down enough to mention things during sex that they're too embarrassed to talk about once they aren't turned on.
  • Sex in the aftermath of someone going through something really rough, either emotionally or physically, and the other person really gently taking care of them.
  • Very very careful sex with an injured character.
  • Bondage leading to body worship.
  • H/C leading to makeouts or sex.
  • Non-penetrative sex (especially intercrual)
  • Gentle breathplay, biting, scratching, bondage, manhandling, one character pining another down, and other things along those lines.
  •  
  • Bottom Preferences for anal: For these pairings I vaguely prefer Trevelyan, Scott, the Sith Inquisitor, and Theron bottoming, but that's just a vague preference that I'm only even mentioning because I know some people get nervous without it being stated. I like switching and I love "person usually on bottom is topping this time" scenarios, so if your preferences are different from mine then feel free to go with what you find hotter! (If a pairing wasn't mentioned then I'm fine with eit
  • The above preferences don't apply to any other sex act or to who is dominant emotionally/verbally.
  •  
  • Note on Fade To Blacks: If you aren't comfortable (or don't have time for) writing smut but feel like it belongs in the fic, I am totally fine with fade to blacks.




  • Humiliation.
  • Severe social ineptness.
  • Planned public declarations of love (outbursts are fine).
  • Cheating or suspicion of cheating that isn't immediately shot down.
  • Unrequested poly.
  • Open relationships.
  • Unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons.
  • Non-canon slavery.
  • Non-canon permanent maiming/incapacitation.
  • Graphic description of wounds.
  • Graphic torture.
  • Non-canon permanent major character death.
  • Canon character death resulting from a forced either/or choice.
  • Custom Names for Player Characters if default ones exist.
  • Noncon, fear of Noncon, or focus on past Noncon.
  • Unrequested Dubcon.
  • Mentor/Mentee.
  • Spanking
  • Kissing after throwing up.
  • Blowjobs after anal.
  • Rimming.
  • Fisting.
  • Sounding.

  • Dragon Age DNW
  • Hawke or The Inquisitor taking a hard anti-mage stance.
  • Leaving anyone behind in the Fade. (Brief references to Stroud dying or something are fine if it wouldn't make sense not to mention it, just not leaving Hawke or Alistair or references to the Inquisitor making the decision on who stays)
  • Killing the Chargers

  • Andromeda DNWs
  • Focus on anything to do with Kadara, Exiled Colonists, Colonists turned Raiders, the Nexus Uprising, ect. This includes colonists who were exiled but went their own way, mentions of anything involving exile, and any nameless colonists-turned-raiderlike-minons. (EXCEPTION: Fixits or Jien-lived scenarios). It's okay to have the effects of it in there (eg: the Krogan Colony or Kandros being head of security), I'd just prefer to avoid directly dealing with that whole plotline as much as possible. It's just a personal dislike thing, so don't stress if you need to briefly reference something! I'm mainly trying to avoid fics with it as a major focus or things that would have to reference it repeatedly enough that I couldn't just ignore it.
  • The non-Pathfinder twin resenting the Pathfinder twin.

  • SWTOR DNWs
  • Apprentices/Padawans having crushes on their masters
  • Chaotic-evil mwhahaha type darksided Sith Inquisitor or Warrior (or Jaesa).
  • Darksided Consular or the Consular taking the Dark path during their Act 1.
  • Bad end for Theron
  • Death from the either/or situation at the end of KOTET.
  • The "save two leave one" escape pod thing.

This is totally not a letter for an exchange that doesn't have any optional details because that would be ridiculous.

But just in case, don't worry too much about fandoms for me! I've got plenty of exchanges to request my very specific requests; this is the exchange where I'll get something tropey and mysterious! If you really want to go digging or we have a fandom overlap then feel free, but otherwise write the fandom you love! Even for my requests that I put with fandom specific tags, I'm fine with the general tags being repurposed (you only have to write two, after all!). If you're a normal star wars person and are panicking because you got a videogame person don't worry I love the other stuff too I'm just not active in those fandoms usually.

<3
I'm so sorry that this was a week late! Real life unexpected got incredibly busy this week. If you already had to start before I finished the letter no worries (the initial tl;dr and the prompts probably had all of the basics anyways) and if not then it's up! Probably typo ridden, but up!

Thank you for writing for me! <3 There's a lot of rambling here, but if you don't see a prompt you want to write and have an idea that you think I'll like, feel free to go for it! Everything here is a beloved rarepair and pining is my one true kink, so honestly there's 100% chance that I see any of the pairings and go "Someone wrote me XYZ pining!!" and love whatever it is. Anything past that will just increase the love level. (The fact that they're all rare pairs and this is a pining exchange does not make this any less likely to happen. I don't run off of logic, just rarepair squee and angst).

I am totally fine with things staying unresolved for the "eventually requited" requests, as long as there's clues that it's requited even if the viewpoint character isn't picking it up yet.

Some of the requests only had one or the other pining, either due to what was nominated or due to me wanting to freeform for a certain dynamic, but unless I miss something all of those should have at least some musing on the other character pining too. Some are longer than others but if you checked the letter before I finished you know how my week went so I promise that's just a result of rushing and not a reflection on which pairings I like more or less.

I separated out the freeforms that I had more to say that just pointing at them, but I still really love the ones that I didn't elaborate on as well, they were just mostly self explanatory or more "free space" type freeforms.


(There are 11 request links because two of them had to share freeforms)


 
  • Emotions and talking.
  • Hurt/Comfort (emotional or physical or both)
  • Mutual pining.
  • Pre-relationship or get-togethers.
  • Established relationships dealing with some new disruption.
  • Fluff.
  • Closing ranks around someone who's usually the responsible one and can't be right now.
  • Friendships and relationships beyond just the pairing, especially if they came into it with canon ties.
  • Character hiding something that can't be easily fixed (injury, exhaustion, a curse, price of a spell ect), and the aftermath when the hidden thing is revealed.
  • Imposter syndrome.
  • Stuff that emphasizes how smart or clever or competent the characters are, even if it's just tiny hints in the background.
  • Snippets of changing the place that they're spending canon in into something that feels lived in, especially if they're building it or fixing up an old ruin.
  • Canon divergence AUs.
  • Roleswap AUs
  • For games with multiple background options for the player characters, the player character in a prompted pairing being in a companion role while another player character is the [insert title here] this time.
  • Fix-its, whether it's just fixing a small thing or if it's straight up Everyone Lives Nobody Dies.
  • Post fix-its or canon divergence. As in the fic just handwaves that the thing was already fixed at some point before or just straight up didn't happen and moves on without focusing on it.
  • If there's something awkward or embarrassing or ooc in canon that you hate, feel free to ignore it. I'm cool with handwaving away stuff if it'll be more fun to write with that detail changed. Especially if it's something small that ruins something large for you.
  • I enjoy non-standard formats (epistolary, notes to self, chatroom, outsider pov, Varric's exaggerated narration with flashbacks to what actually happened, related snippets, ect), so feel free to play around with that sort of thing if you want to!

Iron Bull/M!Inquisitor (Lavellan or Trevelyan)
  • (The prompts for this are assuming anything after Bull's personal quest goes with the "Charger's live" scenario)
  • It's fine to focus on either M!Lavellan, M!Trevelyan, or Bull pining. I just only chose the Inquisitors so I could pick the freeforms this way.
  • This whole relationship was basically made for pining. It may have been just my interpretation, but for the entire time that Bull's trying to be both The Iron Bull and a Qunari spy, the Inquisitor seemed to be flirting at a brick wall. And then that quest happens and suddenly the relationship goes sexual reaaaaaal fast. But explicitly casual. Except as soon as the Inquisitor tries to take it to a relationship that goes out the window too. So the whole thing is very weirdly vulnerable because clearly Bull isn't saying what he wants and he's such a good actor that most Inquisitors probably can't see past that easily, especially early on.
  • There's also the fact that Bull's whole identity and how he deals with people who might get wrapped up in that is complicated as all heck, especially internally.
  •  
  • Since I DNWed non-default names, if you want to include first names the defaults are Mahanon Lavellan or Maxwell Trevelyan.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms:
  • Conversations with double meanings - I mean, it's Bull. Either spy stuff, or him having to phrase things in ways that aren't exactly true to what he's thinking, or just the Inquisitor not picking up on innuendo at all.
  •  
  • Character B knows A is pining but pretends to be oblivious - There's a lot of reasons why Bull might do this tied all up with the Qunari stuff or his own identity issues or just being a spy and knowing that the advisors are keeping a close eye on him.
  •  
  • Character A Pines For Character B Not Realizing It's Requited
    Character A thinks B rejected advances

     - Bull is really good at lying and doesn't necessarily have to say anything to do it. Maybe he deliberately led the Inquisitor to that conclusion. Maybe he's just too subtle for them to pick up on.
  •  
  • Character B's flirting is too subtle and Character A pines instead of picking up on it - Extension of the above, if you want to go with Bull is still flirting but it's just so different from his normal way of doing things (for whatever reason) that the Inquisitor doesn't pick up on it. Or maybe they're just really dense.
  •  
  • Character A has never been in love before and so doesn't immediately recognize the feeling - Either of them could so easily be this. Depending on the Inquisitor that could bring up a whole bunch of different stresses, and there's so much in Bull's past that could make it hard for him to recognize genuine emotions of that sort
  •  
  • In denial about their attraction to the character they are pining for - The different backgrounds for the Inquisitor could come to this in a bunch of different ways, and if it ties in with one of the tropes about them thinking it isn't requited then that could easily feed into that by giving them a good reason not to catch feelings.
  •  
  • Pining for emotional relationship in a perceived to be physical one - This literally happens in the game midway through the relationship. Except in game you get a quest to make it an emotional relationship whereas in fic they might have to go through a lot of pining and angst first.
  •  
  • Other Freeforms:
  • Hurt/Comfort
  • Loyalty
  • Pining character has to sit on their crush's lap
  • Pining while having wounds tended
  • Pining while tending someone's wounds
  • Pining while sharing a bath
  • Pining while sparring
  • Pining character reveals their feelings while not quite lucid (hurt/drunk/etc.)
  • Guilt over enjoying friendly hugs/physical closeness too much
  • Trying to Ignore Feelings While Forced to Work in Close Quarters With Person of Their Affection
  • Pining While Sleeping on Love Interest's Bed
  • pining character A finally makes a move after B almost died
  • pining character finally makes a move after they almost died
  • Alliance is or might be temporary
  • Character A pining because they think a relationship would be inappropriate


Iron Bull/M!Trevelyan/Dorian
  • So this can be a lot of the same stuff as above, but I picked the tag and freeforms because Dorian is a disaster who would take a complicated romantic situation and make it five times harder via sheer force of denial and low romantic confidence.
  • Can also be pining from Bull or the Inquisitor, I just wanted to pick the tags for Dorian because he's my favorite angsty ball of denial and insecurity.
  • Since I DNWed non-default names, if you want to include first names the defaults are Mahanon Lavellan or Maxwell Trevelyan. (Lavellan isn't in the tag but that's just because I ran out of nom space, I'm fine with either!)
  • (Just to be super clear, the 'no open relationships' DNW extra applies to this. The thing I'm trying to DNW with that is situations where an established/official emotionally realized couple brings a third in for explictly casual sex that they intend to stay casual, even if their intentions change later. Pretty much anything other than that or V shaped relationships should be fine.)
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • Character A pining silently so Characters B & C won't feel guilty for not returning their affections - Whether the other two are in an established realtionship and Dorian is trying to deal silently, or if the other two are just flirting (and possibly also flirting with Dorian with him just not picking up on that or thinking they like each other more than they like him) and Dorian just taps out early and tries to get out of the way.
  •  
  • Character A Pines For Character B Due To Past Experience - Not Actually Unrequited - The game establishes that Dorian has both not made moves before because he didn't think someone would go for it, and implies that he's had some pretty good reason to assume things won't go an emotional direction. In a threesome that would probably be far worse since he'd have a direct 'rival' for both of his crushes who also happened to be the other crush just to make things extra confusing and depressing for him.
  •  
  • Character keeps picking fights with object of their pining - Either the fights in canon, or something entirely new that he manages to get into arguments with them about.
  •  
  • Pining character doused with truth serum - Dorian would hate this so much. Whether he was the one who was truth serumed and it brought some things to light, or he wasn't the truth serumed one and he had to deal with one or both of the other two still flirting outragously with him and having no way to deny what they're saying. Maybe they're all pining disasters, maybe just Dorian is, any way it could be fun.

  • Conversations with double meanings
  • pining because character(s) worries about ruining their friendship
  • A thinks B is out of their league
  • mistaking pining for hatred


M!Hawke/Varric
  • I am just all about all the loyalty and friendship and trust and history that's tied up with these two, whether it's set during DAII and while they're still figuring each other out or if it's way down the line during or after Inquisition when they have years and years of knowing each other behind them.
  • I tend to write prompts with purple Hawke in mind because it's what I usually play, but I'm very much happy to get other personalities too
  • I'm fine with Bianca being brought up (I actually think she's really neat!) and Varric is still some level of not over her if you'd like to include her. I'm also fine with just not focusing on that, but I thought it was worth mentioning the ambivalence just to assuage any potential worries.
  • Since I DNWed non-default names, if you want to include first names the default is Garrett Hawke.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • Pining Character A is Character B's Most Important Person but Wants More - This may as well be the entire theme of this request.
  •  
  • B is courting A who doesn't realize because it's different from how B flirts with other people - This was mostly with purple Hawke in mind, because purple Hawke can be ridiculous but also Hawke has a lot of really sincere moments... but it's really easy to miss that in the general inanity. It could really apply to any Hawke though, or to Varric if Hawke had only ever seen Varric jokingly flirting and now Varric's trying to actually flirt with them and not getting through.
  •  
  • Character A thinks B isn't serious about them despite B's heavy flirting and subsequently pines - Whichever of them who is doing the flirting is putting it on really obviously but the other one assumes they're just messing around. Maybe they've been joke flirting for years and now it's serious and they aren't good at making that clear, or maybe they just have been having a very frustrating time for a very long time.
  •  
  • Character A incorrectly assumes that Character B knows that A is pining for them - There's a couple times in canon where Varric jokes that Hawke isn't their type or is too much for him, and it would be really really easy for Hawke to assume from those that Varric has their number and was letting htem down easy. Or for either of them to just assume that they've known each other so long that the other has to know.
  •  
  • Everyone thinks they're already in a relationship - They've got such a close relationship and are so in each other's business that it would be really easy for people to assume they're together. Maybe Kirkwallers are making assumptions because you never ever see the two apart and they're always in each other's living spaces. Maybe during Inquisition everyone just assumes that Varric was so protective of Hawke because they're in a relationship (and that Hawke came anyways for the same reason). Maybe some of Isabela's friendfiction got really out of control. Maybe The Tale of the Champion has shippers and between that and rumors, assumptions were made. Or maybe just run of the mill them acting like they're in a relationship and everyone else just goes with the most obvious assumption.
  •  
  • A is confused about whether their pining is romantic/sexual or platonic - If the pining started after they'd already been friends for awhile and they're trying to figure out if it's actually feelings or just their friendship being so close and comfortable that it's confusing them.
  •  
  • Mistaking pining for platonic admiration - Sort of the opposite of the above, with one of them not realizing the other is pining because they're close enough that the lines are blurred and it's easy to dismiss romantic interest as platonic friendship.
  •  
  • A pining because they think B is uninterested in romance or relationships - Either Hawke assuming that Varric is still too caught up in Bianca to be interested, or Varric having noticed Hawke not getting into any major relationships and assuming that it's because Hawke isn't a relationship sort of person.
  •  
  • A pining for B because they think B sees them as family - It would be so easy for either of them to think of the other as family and for that to complicate things for the other one. Especially if they're both pining and one of them is deliberately treating the other like family because they think that's the closest they can get.
  •  
  • Character pines for someone who thinks nothing of undressing casually in front of them - They're always out on missions and those barriers have to have been eroded pretty quickly, which could lead to all sorts of UST.
  •  
  • Undercover as a Couple While Pining - They know each other so well that they're the obvious choice for a fake couple. Which might really suck for two people who are pining.
  •  
  • Other Freeforms
  • Mutual Pining
  • Hurt/Comfort

  • Pining character doused with truth serum

Solas/M!Inquisitor (Lavellan or Trevelyan)
  • Okay so this disaster. Just, like. Him having to deal with pining that's his own dang fault.
  • I'm fine with it being more about the Inquisitor too, as long as it's obvious that Solas has caused himself to be a pining mess. (A lot of these prompts are me being like 'so this mess' but I do like him a lot I swear. He's very fun to be frustrated by and I love the more antagonistic relationships that can result from that.)
  • Since I DNWed non-default names, if you want to include first names the defaults are Mahanon Lavellan or Maxwell Trevelyan.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • A pining after betraying B
  • A thinks B won't want them because of their past behavior
  • Character A pining because they think character B hates them
  • - The above three are mostly about Trespasser but could apply mid game as well for a ton of different reasons and dynamics. Solas is absolutely the sort to have decided that he knows what the emotional consequences of his actions are going to be regardless of what the Inquisitor is actually saying. Especially if they never got into an actual relationship during the game so he's got even more ways to convince himself that it's not meant to be or that they aren't actually into him ect. It could easily be during the main game as well, either if they keep arguing and Solas just assumes he's alienating them completely (regardless of if he regrets it or not), or if Solas is predicting how things are going to go once the Inquisitor figures out where the orb came from. Or Solas just feeling more and more guilty of what he's started as he gets to know people.
  •  
  • Character keeps picking fights with object of their pining - The game lets the Inquisitor get into a surprising amount of arguments with Solas and he has a habit of saying some pretty insensitive things. He can be super smart, but that doesn't necessarily mean that his delivery is winning him any points.
  •  
  • B is oblivious to A's pining and A wants to keep it that way - Solas knows exactly how wrapped up he is in all of this and it's clear during the game that he doesn't want to start a relationship under false pretenses.
  •  
  • Character A turns down Character B because Character A is secretly the enemy - I'm not sure how much Solas knows on how far he's going to take things, but it's entirely possible that he figures out early on that chances are if the Inquisitor survives the events of Inquisition they're going to end up on opposing sides of whatever Solas is planning for after he gets the orb. Or maybe not getting the orb changed everything and he's suddenly realizing he's got to do his thing the hard(er) way and that will result in a conflict.
  •  
  • Pining for Someone Character Keeps Seeing in Dreams - Since it's Solas this gets real complicated really fast. Maybe he's subconsciously creating reflections of the Inquisitor in the fade while he's sleeps, maybe he's consciously doing that, maybe he's accidentally pulling the Inquisitor themself into his dreams, or maybe he's stalking them while they sleep or are in the fade.
  •  
  • pining character A finally makes a move after B almost died - The Inquisitor almost dies a lot during the game and while all of the companions are hit hard by it, Solas has a whole different level of emotions to deal with. Maybe early on it's not a big deal because he's still distant enough, or maybe he's got complicated emotions about it from the start and it just builds from there with every near miss.

Cassandra/Josephine
  • They're just so cute okay! There's so much courting and silliness and cuteness that could come from this, especially if Cassandra knows that Josephine is betrothed. Cassandra very overtly loves her transitional romance/courting and Josephine is a perfect target for that despite all she tries really hard to be practical. They could be so adorable.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • Mistaking pining for platonic admiration - They have to work together a lot. Maybe it builds up slow so it just seems like that's how they act around a coworker they're really fond of, or maybe there's some other trigger to them noticing the pining but convincing themself that it isn't pining for some reason or another. Especially on Cass's part since she knows she's not the best at social situations to start with.
  •  
  • A pining because they think B is in a relationship with someone else - In this case because Cass knows that Josephine is betrothed. (this is an exception to that DNW because it's canon)
  •  
  • Pining character's feelings are discovered by a third party - Maybe Josephine's fiance (since he seemed entirely happy to step aside for True Love), or maybe someone else in the Inquisition realizes what's going on and tries to either play therapist or matchmake.

  • I didn't get every pining permutation nommed but I'm fine with anyone being the one whose pining is focused on (I did get All Pining in there so I'm hoping that covers it) and for it to be either all three of them not being in a relationship yet or for any two to be in a relationship before the third one is pulled in.
  • I'm fine with either Scott or Sara being the pathfinder regardless of who is in the romance.
  • Since I DNWed non-default names, the defaults are Scott or Sara Ryder.
  • (Just to be super clear, the 'no open relationships' DNW extra applies to this. The thing I'm trying to DNW with that is situations where an established/official emotionally realized couple brings a third in for explicitly casual sex that they intend to stay casual, even if their intentions change later. Pretty much anything other than that or V shaped relationships should be fine.)

  • Alliance is or might be temporary - While they definitely want things to hold steady and are trying to make that, there's no guarantee of that. Especially early on.
  •  
  • A B and C are each convinced the other two are about to get into a relationship - Between the possible cultural barriers, both Liam and Jaal having few barriers, and all the different ways that Ryder could be, it would be really easy for all of them to read the mutual pining that's going around and make some assumptions on it being two ways instead of three.
  •  
  • A and B commiserate about their mutual pining for C - Maybe Jaal and Liam about Ryder, especially if Ryder is too stressed about everything to even think about a relationship at that point. Maybe Ryder and Liam about Jaal, because of either cultural barriers or because he's flirting with other people like he does in canon and they're making assumptions based on that
  •  
  • Group pining for Character A works together to help Character A - Kind of the same theme as the first part of the above prompt. Ryder got thrown into a role they weren't ready for and is under a ton of stress. Maybe they think it's unrequited, maybe they just really don't want to put that on Ryder right now. Or maybe it's after the Archon's ship and Ryder killing themself (even if it was for a very practical reason) has everyone thrown into a different mindset and this is how they're dealing with it.
  •  
  • Pining Character A doesn’t want to act on requited feelings of Character B due to professionalism - For Ryder, they're stuck in a quasi diplomatic position and also outrank everyone on the ship and are trying really hard to live up to that. For Jaal, he's representing his species directly to someone who has a lot of influence over these weird new people and for all he jumps straight into trusting them, he's definitely got to be aware of all the different ways that his behavior could impact things.
  •  
  • Possessed/haunted/AI-in-their-head/ect character reluctant to start a relationship because of it - Even if Ryder is totally at easy with SAM in their head, it adds a whole new element to a relationship that they might not be sure of how to handle (or might not be sure how to talk about with the other two)
  •  
  • Trying to Ignore Feelings While Forced to Work in Close Quarters With Person of Their Affection - The Tempest is small. They sometimes get time away from each other on shore leave, but the rest of the time it's not like other canons where they can walk off for a bit to get some alone time some night; they're almost always within a very small distance of each other with a bunch of other people, which means very little privacy. And when they are off the Tempest it's usually in the sort of dangerous environments that mean they need to stick even closer than they would be on the ship.

F!Morgan/Mikhaila
  •  This whole relationship is such a mess because it starts out in such a weird state (with Mikhaila there under false pretenses) and it ends in an even weirder one (with Morgan lying about why they're breaking up because she's about to go willingly wipe out years worth of memories). And then there's the whole time where Morgan doesn't remember Mikahila and Mikhaila thinks Morgan is being incredibly cold. And then there's the rescue. And the revelation about Mikhaila's dad. There's also that whole gap time between the end of the real version of the events of the game and the start of the game itself where one or both of them might have died, and if Morgan died but not Mikhaila then now Mikhaila is helping create a replacement Morgan out of their worst enemy.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • Character A pines over amnesiac Character B  - Mikhaila is pretty smart and might have an idea of what the effects of removing a neuromod are. The game implies that Morgan successfully covers for her complete lack of memory of anyone on the station, but if Mikhaila did figure it out that would be a whole mess of emotions. And even if she didn't, during the game it would come to light very fast and leave her there having to work through what exactly those missing memories meant for her.
  •  
  • Character with amnesia pining for relationship they can't remember - Morgan knows she used to be in a relationship with Mikhaila, but it's just words on a page. Especially if it's after she tells Mikhaila what happened to her dad, so she doesn't have the memories and even if they both survive she doesn't have the chance either (or thinks she doesn't).
  •  
  • Character A pining because they think character B hates them - For Morgan, after she tells Mikhaila about her dad. For Mikhaila, maybe Morgan plays up her reason for breaking up with her a bit too much and the resulting coldness (if Mikhaila doesn't realize Morgan's mind was wiped) reinforces the interpretation.
  •  
  • Character A turns down Character B because Character A is secretly the enemy - Either of them could do this. Mikhaila if she knows there's a chance things are going badly for her dad and doesn't want to get involved with someone who is extra in a position to realize she's there with an ulterior motive. Morgan either between finding out about Mikahila's dad and telling her about it, or canon divergence where Morgan realizes why Mikhaila is on the station before the events of the game and turns her down because she either doesn't want to be used to rescue whoever Mikhaila is there for or because she already killed him and knows how Mikhaila would take that.
  •  
  • Pining While Sleeping on Love Interest's Bed - Depending on if you play by quest order or explore everything possible before moving on, Mikhaila can be stuck in that office alone for a good chunk of the game. Morgan's got to have a cot or something in there.

  • Pining for previous personality of character who changed - Morgan's personality definitely changes during the game. Even if it gets nicer, she's still a different person now and not the person that Mikhaila fell for. The whole thing could get extra complicated after Mikhaila finds out about her dad, because Morgan killed him, but also Morgan killed him and that Morgan may as well be dead herself. Which could be extra painful if Mikhaila is still pining for old Morgan despite knowing what old Morgan did and having this new Morgan right in front of her.
  •  
  • Pining for character who came back wrong - Canon divergenece where Mikhaila is still alive at the end of the game (maybe the operators are just so that only one person's life is at risk? Or maybe it's a different simulation to test the Tython without endangering anyone) and they've got this Tython that is basically Morgan now, but also very very much not Morgan.
  •  
  • Character pines for their rescuer - When Morgan rescues Mikhaila in game is such a good moment from Mikhaila's POV. For Mikhaila her ex is blazing in to save her from certain death and then running off to grab the medicine for the disease that's the stated reason for their breakup and wow can that be a mess of emotions. Especially since Morgan is still acting like she doesn't know her so if Mikhaila hasn't figured out the amnesia yet that adds yet another dynamic to it.
  •  
  • A ended the relationship with B but still pines for them - Morgan only ends the relationship with Mikhaila because she's about to go into loops that'll cause her to forget her, and doesn't want anyone outside of the project to know that her memory got erased. She could very easily still be head over heels and possibly even hoping to rekindle things once they're done with the loops, especially if she's convinced herself that the memory wipes aren't that big of a deal.

Arcann/M!Consular
  • There as so many dynamics this can have depending on what point in the story they're at. Whether it's before they even meet, or when Arcann is obsessing over the Consular during those five years, or when Arcann is convincing himself that the Consular is just a meatpuppet for his dad, or if it's between his defeat and him joining the Alliance and the many many different ways you could take his emotional journey there, or if it's after Arcann joins the alliance and is a weird mix of subordinant/ally/former-enemy. And that's all without even taking all the different ways that the Consular's personality and Jediness could come into play.
  • I really really love the Consular's Act 1 shield ability (I have a thing with the whole 'power comes with a potentially deadly price' trope).
  • I'd rather avoid the "oh no relationships lead to the dark side" Jedi angst. In the base Consular questline there's no alignment penalty for flirting and in at least one romance the Jedi are fully aware of it (Felix's after-marriage letter talks about him having to have relationship therapy type talks with some other Masters) so there's some support for the lines not being quite as firm for the Consular in canon.
  • The non-default name DNW doesn't technically apply here since there are no defaults, but I'd prefer sticking to titles or role based epithets if possible (if not, just a really standard seeming name is fine).
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • Character A would rather die than admit to having feelings for Character B - When Arcann is still Emperor. That whole situation would be such a mess of jealousy and confusion and attraction. Especially if he was really struggling to tell if the mind controlling the Consular's body really was still the Jedi he'd read up on or if it was his Father putting on an act (he seems to swap who he's talking to a lot during the game)
  •  
  • Mistaking pining for platonic admiration
    Character B's flirting is too subtle and Character A pines instead of picking up on it

     - Jedi aren't exactly super outgoing about this sort of thing, and Arcann doesn't seem to have had much exposure to relationships (which could be for a whole number of reasons). It'd be real easy for either of them to be flirting too subtly while the other is too oblivious to the signs to realize that's what's going on.
  •  
  • Possessed/haunted/AI-in-their-head/ect character reluctant to start a relationship because of it
    Pining because a third party is interfering with developing relationship

     - Valkorion. I mean technically it could be Lana or someone advising the Consular to keep their distance, but Valkorion goes very hard in the game on trying to make the Consular kill Arcann or just not trust him, and that's without a romance actively happening.
  •  
  • Pining for Someone Character Keeps Seeing in Dreams
    Psychic link reveals pining is mutual

    - Force shenanigans. Maybe it's the result of an artifact. Maybe the result of Valkorion's affect on them or the aftermath of defeating him. Maybe just general force weirdness.
  •  
  • pining characters worries about hurting the character they love if they got together - The last person that Arcann really loved was his brother. Who he stabbed. In a very similar fashion to how he's already stabbed the Consular (or maybe he hasn't yet and part of the reason why he's able to be knocked off the platform by Koth or Lana is the shock of that association). He's got some very good reasons to be worried that he'll get out of control again and hurt someone close to him.

Andronikos/M!Sith Inquisitor
  • Loyalty Kink very against Andronikos' will.
  • It'd be really easy for them to get into a nebulous relationship where they're sort of in a something but haven't actually talked anything out.
  • The non-default name DNW doesn't technically apply here since there are no defaults, but I'd prefer sticking to titles or role based epithets if possible. Or the canon Darth names (Imperius, Nox, or Occlus.) or Kallig since that's technically the SI's family name too.

    - Andronikos has some hangups. Most of which are pretty reasonable considering his history and the fact that the SI is a literal Dark Lord by the end of things.
  •  
  • Character A has never been in love before and so doesn't immediately recognize the feeling - The SI has been a slave (potentially for a long time) and then got thrown into the meat grinder that is a Sith apprenticeship. They don't ever mention having any old friends or family or anything, which is partially because of Bioware trying to give us a blank slate but also has some interesting implications if you go with it. It's entirely possible that they've either never had the chance or never had someone they trusted enough to get anywhere close to thinking about that way. Or maybe they're just a meganerd who couldn't see the people for the cool powerful artifacts and it took something really hitting right to pull them up and make them take stock of their emotions.
  •  
  • Character pines for someone they think is dead - During that five years between SOR and KOTET. Andronikos was the one flying the ship, so there has to be a part of him that regrets not dragging the SI back onto their ship when he had the chance and screw the rest of them. And then the whole mess of hearing about the SI killing Valkorion and supposedly dying to it and the hope that he hasn't and the thought that he must have and then rumors of the Alliance popping up and is it really him? The SI is so wrapped up in force ghosts that his people could easily start looking for signs of him in that realm too.
  •  
  • Everyone thinks they're already in a relationship - Why would a Dark Lord have a random pirate as his personal pilot and one of his most trusted (if not the absolute most trusted) people? There's no way that the Empire hasn't made a dozen assumptions on that.

Lana/F!Smuggler
  • Lana is so ridiculously loyal to the Outlander from basically the moment she meets them. Even when the Outlander is a scruffy Captain with a penchant for getting into trouble. Considering that they're on opposite sides and then Lana spends five years trying to rescue the Smuggler and getting more and more convinced that the Smuggler is their only hope, there's a lot of room for pining.
  • And on the Smuggler's side they're just a disaster no matter how you play them and that could be a lot of fun.
  • The non-default name DNW doesn't technically apply here since there are no defaults, but I'd prefer sticking to titles, role based epithets, or nicknames if possible. Something that sounds like a very obviously made up fake name (like their Ace name in the ship fights) is fine as well.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • B is oblivious to A's pining and A wants to keep it that way - The Smuggler is used to being able to be a suave flirt. Maybe they'd really rather Lana not realize how entirely gone they are. Or maybe they're totally fine with Lana knowing but Lana is trying to be all professional and keep her emotions to herself and not blur lines, especially during SOR.
  •  
  • Character A thinks B isn't serious about them despite B's heavy flirting and subsequently pines - The Smuggler has so many opportunities to be a flirt that it would be really easy for Lana to not see the difference between their "I am super into you let's get married" flirting and their "Hey you look vaguely compatible and I'm bored" flirting.
  •  
  • Character B's flirting is too subtle and Character A pines instead of picking up on it - Alternatively, maybe the Smuggler is trying really hard to flirt seriously and because their unserious flirting is so obvious Lana doesn't pick up on it at all. Or maybe Lana is the one flirting but her style of flirting just is too Lana to be obvious.
  •  
  • Character pines for someone they think is dead - Lana has a lot of faith during those five years, but it would be really easy to doubt. Maybe it's just for moments, maybe a part of her is certain that the Smuggler is dead right until the Smuggler is falling (alive, if poisoned) into her arms.
  •  
  • Everyone thinks they're already in a relationship - Why would the Republic's darling and the head of Sith Intelligence be so friendly with each other? Because the emperor is trying to destroy the world, obviously, but other people are going to draw some very different conclusions.
  •  
  • Possessed/haunted/AI-in-their-head/ect character reluctant to start a relationship because of it - The Smuggler doesn't have any experience with this sort of nonsense, and is probably one of the most likely to worry how it might affect other people since they've got no force abilities of their own nor training in this sort of thing to even try to fight back against Valkorion at all. It's just them and their willpower, against a creepy dude who ate a whole planet. Maybe they're just worried about force nonsense, maybe they see enough similarities between Lana and Senya that they're worried Valkorion will slowly turn them into a meatsuit and keep Lana on a string.

M!Sith Warrior/Theron
  • Note: I somehow accidentally picked "Psychic link reveals feelings aren't mutual" instead of what I meant to pick which was "Psychic link reveals pining is mutual". Since I only picked "Feelings eventually requited" for this one I'm fairly sure I wouldn't have matched with someone who wanted to write unrequited, but I wanted to mention the freeform mistake here just in case. If you had an idea for the "aren't mutual" version that still fits with "feelings eventually requited" then that's still perfectly fun!
  • The non-default name DNW doesn't technically apply here since there are no defaults, but I'd prefer sticking to titles, role based epithets, or using the Wrath part of his title as a name.
  •  
  • Prompty Freeforms
  • Alliance is or might be temporary - Throughout SOR they're really clear that they're going to go back to their respective sides as soon as things are over, which heavily influences the dynamics between them. Or maybe they have to work together before all the Revanite stuff and it's an even more temporary alliance that they're having to figure out how to deal with their emotions within (or how to properly hide said emotions).
  •  
  • mistaking pining for hatred
    Everyone Thinks They Hate Each Other - They're Pining
    Character A pining because they think character B hates them

    - The game lets them have a pretty friendly relationship, but considering Theron's history and Wrath being Wrath they could so easily have more antagonistic one as well. And then that would just get more and more complicated with every plotline they go through.
  •  
  • Undercover as a Couple While Pining - This could just be fun, really, regardless of how good or bad Wrath is at the couple part. Maybe the Warrior is fully into it and very very convincingly playing (or just acting like he really wants to with the 'cover' as an excuse) an overprotective boyfriend/husband and it's causing emotional issues for Theron. Or maybe the whole idea is throwing the Warrior for a loop and making him think about things in a different light.
  •  
  • Character A pines while Character B Thinks They're Already Dating - Technically they broke up after Yavin, but before that they never exactly sat down to outline what their relationship was. And even after that how Sith do things and how Republic spies do things are very very different.
  •  
  • A ended the relationship with B but still pines for them - Either of them being a mess after Yavin, or Theron being a mess after his fake 'betrayal'.
  •  
  • Pining character expects to be killed by their crush - With someone like the Wrath of the Empire, Theron would have a really good reason to assume that no matter how things turn out he's going to get killed for 'betraying' the Warrior. Especially if he isn't certain that he'll live to the end of it since the Warrior is probably the last person in the galaxy that a sane person wants hunting them.
  •  
  • A isn't used to not getting things they want - The Warrior goes through some shit, but at the end of the day he's a prodigy from a respected bloodline. A lot of his Korriban arc is about him having things handed to him, and while he's obviously willing to put in the work and proves himself able to overcome some pretty massive barriers during his storyline, he's still used to things always coming up his way in the end. That could easily rub Theron the wrong way.
  •  
  • Everyone thinks they're already in a relationship - Especially after their breakup. Maybe the Warrior is a subtle person and 'everyone' is just his closest people. Or maybe he's incredibly unsubtle and it's really everyone. Maybe Theron isn't as subtle as he tries to be either and the SIS is trying to figure out how to use it or Satele is worried.
  • s
  • Character pines for someone they think is dead - Theron is really good at denial and compartmentalization. There's so much going on after the Warrior disappears that it would be really easy for him to bury himself in that, even though he's helping Lana look for the Warrior too. And even after the Warrior is back, there'd be that trepidation of not wanting to go and have to confront things and being able to convince himself that other things took precedence until he actually really had to go and re-meet someone that he'd convinced himself was gone for good.

  • One of them deliberately taking aphrodisiacs (with everyone in the ship aware and consent given ahead of time) as a way to lose control a bit.
  • One of them deliberately letting themselves get affected by sex pollen (in order to finish a mission or something) having negotiated ahead of time exactly how they would deal with it.
  • Accidental sex pollen or heat incident where no sex happens (just a lot of h/c and doting)
  • Attempts at safe, sane and consensual... but can be poorly negotiated on all fronts or just straight up a bad idea but they're into it.
  • Arguments leading to sex, continuing during sex, or interrupting sex.
  • Attempts at dirty talk leading to emotional conversations or outbursts.
  • Serious emotional conversations interrupting sex (or happening during ongoing sex)
  • Character's guard goes down enough to mention things during sex that they're too embarrassed to talk about once they aren't turned on.
  • Someone going through something really rough, either emotionally or physically, and just really needing to be a pillow princess and get doted on this time.
  • One character going uncharacteristically quiet or something mid-sex and the other noticing and stopping to make sure they're alright.
  • Very very careful sex with an injured character.
  • Body worship of a character who got tied up expecting something very different.
  • Sex just triggering a breakdown due to a completely unrelated issue and the affected character trying to get that across to a very concerned/panicked partner.
  • H/C leading to makeouts or sex.
  • Non-penetrative sex (especially intercrual)
  • Gentle breathplay, biting, scratching, bondage, manhandling, one character pining another down, and other things along those lines.
  •  
  • Bottom Preferences for anal: For these pairings I vaguely prefer Lavellan, Trevelyan (if it's with Bull) Varric, Scott, the Sith Inquisitor, the Consular, and Theron bottoming, but that's just a vague preference that I'm only even mentioning because I know some people get nervous without it being stated. I like switching and I love "person usually on bottom is topping this time" scenarios, so if your preferences are different from mine then feel free to go with what you find hotter! (For the threesomes, I don't have a preference for the characters not mentioned here).
  • The above preferences don't apply to blowjobs at all for me. Blowjobs are equal opportunity ground. It doesn't apply to any other sex act or to who is dominant emotionally either.

  • Disciplinary punishment in a sexual context.
  • Kissing after throwing up.
  • Rimming. Fisting. Sounding. Blowjobs after anal.

  • Dragon Age DNW
  • Hawke or The Inquisitor taking a hard anti-mage stance.
  • Leaving anyone behind in the fade.
  • Killing the Chargers.

  • Andromeda DNWs
  • Anything to do with Kadara, Exiled Colonists, Colonists turned Raiders, the Nexus Uprising, ect. This includes colonists who were exiled but went their own way, mentions of anything involving exile, and any nameless colonists-turned-raiderlike-minons for non-exiled Initiative characters. (EXCEPTION: Canon divergences fixits that solve the Uprising without exiling them or Jien lived scenarios). It's okay to have the effects of it in there (eg: the Krogan Colony or Kandros being head of security), just not direct references to the DNWed stuff.
  • The non-Pathfinder twin resenting the Pathfinder twin.

  • SWTOR DNWs
  • Nadia having a crush on the Consular or Jaesa having a crush on the Warrior.
  • A chaotic-evil darksided Sith (or Jaesa). Affable or intimidating darksided is fine, just not "torture and mwhahaha because I feel like it" darksided.
  • Darksided Consular (grey or struggling is fine).
  • The Consular having solved Act 1 with murder.
  • Bad end for Theron
  • Failing to rescue a companion at the end of KOTET (unless they're saved as well later).
  • The "save two leave one" escape pod thing.

I'm so sorry that this was a week late! Real life unexpected got incredibly busy this week. If you already had to start before I finished the letter no worries (the initial tl;dr and past letters probably had all of the basics anyways) and if not then it's up! Probably typo ridden, but up!

Thank you for writing for me! <3 There's a lot of rambling here, but if you don't see a prompt you want to write and have an idea that you think I'll like, feel free to go for it! I'm really super easy to please and everything here is a beloved rarepair so honestly there's 100% chance that I see any of the pairings and go "Someone wrote me XYZ!!" and love whatever it is. Anything past that will just increase the love level. (The fact that they're all rare pairs does not make this any less likely to happen. I don't run off of logic, just rarepair squee).

Please don't feel obligated to try to match the personalities of player characters in the prompts. Getting something that matches my interpretation is great but getting a fun new one means that I have a reason to replay the games from a new perspective, so I am very sincerely fine with anything that doesn't hit a DNW.

If some sections are longer than others, that's mostly based on how much I had to copy paste over for each since I took so long to get this written, and not at all reflective on how much I want the pairings.





 
  • Canon Typical Shenanigans.
  • Emotions and talking.
  • Hurt/Comfort (emotional or physical or both)
  • Mutual pining.
  • Pre-relationship or get-togethers.
  • Established relationships dealing with some new disruption.
  • Fluff.
  • Closing ranks around someone who's usually the responsible one and can't be right now.
  • Friendships and relationships beyond just the pairing, especially if they came into it with canon ties.
  • Character hiding something that can't be easily fixed (injury, exhaustion, a curse, price of a spell ect), and the aftermath when the hidden thing is revealed.
  • Imposter syndrome.
  • Stuff that emphasizes how smart or clever or competent the characters are, even if it's just tiny hints in the background.
  • Snippets of changing the place that they're spending canon in into something that feels lived in, especially if they're building it or fixing up an old ruin.
  • Canon divergence AUs.
  • Roleswap AUs
  • For games with multiple background options for the player characters, the player character in a prompted pairing being in a companion role while another player character is the [insert title here] this time.
  • Fix-its, whether it's just fixing a small thing or if it's straight up Everyone Lives Nobody Dies.
  • Post fix-its or canon divergence. As in the fic just handwaves that the thing was already fixed at some point before or just straight up didn't happen and moves on without focusing on it.
  • If there's something awkward or embarrassing or ooc in canon that you hate, feel free to ignore it. I'm cool with handwaving away stuff if it'll be more fun to write with that detail changed. Especially if it's something small that ruins something large for you.
  • I enjoy non-standard formats (epistolary, notes to self, chatroom, outsider pov, Varric's exaggerated narration with flashbacks to what actually happened, a collection of related snippets, ect), so feel free to play around with that sort of thing if you want to!

It's been awhile since I played Inquisition so it's possible there's some headcanony stuff in here that I've tricked myself into thinking is canon. I tried to double check as I wrote this but if anything is blatantly wrong and/or you don't want to write it that way, feel free to ignore it!

Since I DNWed custom names, the defaults for the two requested here are Garrett Hawke and Mahanon Lavellan (and if Hawke's looks are described I'd rather that be the in-game/trailer default).

M!Hawke/Varric
  • tl;dr: Fluff, friendship, loyalty, h/c and emotional h/c, h/c that's also emotional h/c even though they're pretending that there's totally no emotional h/c going on no siree.
  • I am just all about all the loyalty and friendship and trust and history that's tied up with these two, whether it's set during DAII and while they're still figuring each other out or if it's way down the line during or after Inquisition when they have years and years of knowing each other behind them.
  • I'm fine with Bianca being brought up (I actually think she's really neat!). I'm also fine with just not focusing on that, but I thought it was worth mentioning the ambivalence just to assuage any potential worries.
  • Varric having revelations about their relationship after Hawke almost dies in the fade (please don't leave the Warden in there either or have it close with Hawke still there, just prompting a close call here), and whatever he does about that.
  • Hawke being bad at relationships in general but trying really really hard.
  • Both of them being bad at feelings and super comfortable in friendship, and that making it harder for them to actually change their relationship since they've spend so long as close friends that they don't want to ruin it.
  • The time they're apart in Inquisition forcing both of them to really confront their feelings since they're usually attached at the hip.
  • Hawke helping Varric with Viscounty things.
  • Hawke attempting to help Varric with Viscounty things while Aveline or Bran ends up actually helping.
  • Everyone else thinking they're already in a relationship, and meanwhile neither of them has it together. Especially if the Inquisition assumes that of course that's why Varric was hiding that he knew where Hawke was.
  • Survivor's guilt on Hawke's part, and possibly somewhat on Varric's. And generally just both of them having to deal with the aftermath of the end of DAII and all the stuff that happens in both games and guilt over things that really aren't their fault (but it's clear in the games they feel responsible for anyways)
  • Any of the five million points in canon where Hawke is either coming out of a fight that should have seriously injured them, coming out of a terrifying situation, mage Hawke coming out of a Templar situation, Hawke not dealing well with an emotionally tough situation, ect.
  • Hawke being very upbeat around everyone else, and then letting the act go once he and Varric are alone. (whether just on a normal day, in response to an injury, or in response to an emotional trauma)
  • The two of them bantering back and forth while Hawke is seriously injured because it makes the both of them feel better.
  • Varric keeping an eye on an injured Hawke and making him follow the healer's recovery instructions when Hawke tries to cut corners.
  • Mage!Hawke hiding an injury from everyone else but asking Varric to help him out with healing it. Maybe it's in an embarrassing spot (only if they both find it funny), maybe he just can't deal with Anders today, maybe he still doesn't trust the Inquisition, maybe he just can't with interacting with anyone right then, or maybe it's all just an excuse for flirting with Varric.
  • Canon typical missonfic and general shenanigans


Hawke/M!Lavellan
  • Flirting during the game, whether during other stuff that's going on, or if they're supposed to be acting all leaderly and heroic and instead they're off on their own.
  • Taking Lavellan back to Kirkwall after Trespasser (whether by bullying or semi-kidnapping or just convincing him and the advisors that it's safer than Skyhold right now considering all the pies), especially if Lavellan had been reluctant when Varric brought it up during the game and they realize it was because Lavellan was trying not to let them know about the whole probably dying thing.
  • Lavellan avoiding Hawke because he hasn't read (or can't read) the book and it's super stressful to have everyone expecting him to already know all these things on top of Everything Else he's trying to deal with. Then Hawke either thinking Lavellan doesn't like him or that he's shy, and getting injured doing something stupid or dangerous to try to win him over.
  • Both of them feeling like the other is out of their league for various reasons and imposter syndrome on both of their parts.
  • Varric trying to subtly matchmake. Or not so subtly.
  • Cole trying to matchmake.
  • H/C. Like, a lot of H/C.
  • AU where Lavellan somehow ends up in Kirkwall during DA2. Maybe it was his clan that got stuck near the city, or he was visiting to figure out wtf a clan was doing stopping that close to that dangerous of an area, and with everything with Merrill going down he decided he needed to make sure she didn't end up sold into slavery or killed for being a blood mage the moment she stepped foot into the city since obviously her clan wasn't going to.
  • AU where Lavellan isn't the Inquisitor but ends up wrapped up in that whole mess anyways.
  • Hawke being purple Hawke about things and Lavellan leaning into that because it's way easier to deal with than the stress of everything else, especially if Hawke realizes that at some point (or Varric tells him) and plays it up deliberately.
  • Canon typical missonfic and general shenanigans

Since I DNWed custom names, the default for Ryder is Scott Ryder. I don't care about matching the default looks though so feel free to go wild with that.

Please don't feel obligated to try to match the personalities of player characters in the prompts. Getting something that matches my interpretation is great but getting a fun new one means that I have a reason to replay the games from a new perspective, so I am very sincerely fine with anything that doesn't hit a DNW.

Jaal/Liam/M!Ryder
  • Established relationship where you've got all of Jaal and Liam's enthusiasm and however that will work with Ryder's personality.
  • Established Liam/Ryder where they're having to deal with both of them suddenly catching feelings for the same person and not being sure how to go about dealing with that. Or Jaal's side of that, especially since you've got a lot of room for how that works with the Angara culturally and what he might find out when trying to figure out where Liam/Ryder stand culturally and how that might feed into what all of them do about it.
  • Liam and Ryder being ridiculously flirting but not actually being in a relationship yet, and Jaal having to figure out if he wants to make a move and if it'll be disruptive if he does and whether they'll understand his intentions on flirting with both of them or if it'll be misinterpreted as something else.
  • Ryder trying to keep their distance because they're supposed to be in charge, or because they aren't sure how other people will react to SAM being so present in everything Ryder does.
  • Sara's perspective on all this. Or Jaal's family. Or both.
  • The aftermath of Ryder dying on the Archon's ship, or after the end run where he's (nearly? actually?) died again and maybe three times dead/nearly dead is a bit too much, especially since the last two were right in front of Jaal and Liam and neither of them could do anything about it.
  • Canon typical missonfic and general shenanigans


Kandros/M!Ryder
  • Pretending not to flirt while flirting over Apex meetings. Them having to spend a lot of time organizing all this defense stuff and missions and talking with the Angara about more defense stuff and at some point one of them realizes that oh no feelings have somehow formed.
  • Ryder's friends being meddlers. Maybe whoever is meddling really ships it. Maybe this is just the first time that Ryder has been distracted from all the stress of the general situation and they really want to encourage him to focus on something positive.
  • Ryder overworking and generally stressing out about things and Kandros noticing and stepping in, or maybe Lexi asks him to step in because she knows Ryder respects him. Or maybe there's a grapevine of Worry that makes it's way to Kandros
  • The aftermath of Ryder having SAM kill him on the Archon's ship and Kandros getting caught up in the Nexus's reaction to that once it gets out (whether it's just among leadership or it leaks out more widely)
  • Kandros trying to adjust to semi-civilian life.
  • The Angara misinterpreting something they say or do and assuming the two of them are already in a relationship, and them not realizing until it's way too late to gracefully correct things (I know this ones skirts the "embarrassing cultural misunderstandings" DNW but as long as they aren't in any publicly embarrassing situations beyond someone misinterpreting their relationship it's fine).
  • Kandros having to come out on a mission with the Tempest crew.

Zaeed/M!Shepard
  • I DNWed custom names but let's be honest nobody calls Shepard anything else anyways. (It's John if you really need a first name). I don't care about matching the default looks at all so feel free to go wild with that.
  • I realize that the trilogy is very full of choices that would butt up against the "Canon deaths resulting from a forced either/or choice" DNW, so as long as they aren't the focus of the fic I'm not as worried about that DNW for this one.
  • Canon divergence between ME2 and ME3 where Shepard doesn't have to go on house arrest and keeps trying to prepare for the Reapers and Zaeed tags along. (If you don't do that one DLC and became a Spectre again the long term house arrest didn't make a ton of sense anyways).
  • Zaeed dragging Shep through Omega in such a way that he won't get his dumb cute soldier butt in a fight with an army of mercs. And/or helping out when Shepard gets into a fight with an army of mercs anyways.
  • Zaeed helping out during Garrus' recruitment mission in ME2.
  • Zaeed getting caught up in the ME1 stuff.
  • Post-ME3 stuff with Zaeed realizing that people have put Shepard on a pedestal so high that they can't even see him and stealing him off it to go be people and/or get into a fight.
  • Mid game shenanigans, either on the Normandy or in missions taking place during that timeperiod.
  • AU where they meet before the games or maybe with Shepard having not become a soldier at all.

I've only played past KOTET once on each side, but not with any of the classes here because my raiding mains got priority. I know there's definitely some fun stuff that I'm not going to be able to prompt here because I don't know how it goes in a romance. If there's something from those chapters that you think will work really well with any of the themes of stuff here, feel free to use it! If there's anything super headcanony in here (there is in the Consular section) then feel free to ignore or use it as works for you!

I DNWed custom names. I know that there aren't any defaults for this but I'd prefer they use titles, canon aliases/nicknames/things-that-companion-calls-them, or just get called 'the Sith'/'Sith' or 'the Jedi'/'Jedi'. The Sith get names in their stories so those are fine as well (Imperius/Occlus/Nox or Kallig for Inquisitor. Wrath for Warrior).



Arcann/M!Consular
  • There as so many dynamics this can have depending on what point in the story they're at. Whether it's before they even meet, or when Arcann is obsessing over the Consular during those five years, or when Arcann is convincing himself that the Consular is just a meatpuppet for his dad, or if it's between his defeat and him joining the Alliance and the many many different ways you could take his emotional journey there, or if it's after Arcann joins the alliance and is a weird mix of subordinant/ally/former-enemy. And that's all without even taking all the different ways that the Consular's personality and Jediness could come into play.
  • I'd rather avoid the "oh no relationships lead to the dark side" Jedi angst. In the base Consular questline there's no alignment penalty for flirting and in at least one romance the Jedi are fully aware of it (Felix's after-marriage letter talks about him having to have relationship therapy type talks with some other Masters) so there's some support for the lines not being quite as firm for the Consular in canon.
  • I really really love the Consular's Act 1 shield ability. I have a major thing for the "power comes with a potentially deadly price" trope and the "healer working to the point of harming themselves themselves to help others" trope and this is canonically both of those. I wish it came up more considering how many mind control plots this game has.
  • Them taking a bit longer to trust each other than they do in Canon, even after they start working together. The Consular trying real hard to be all Jedi about it but it being kind of hard (maybe for personal reasons, maybe for external ones) considering everything Arcann has done.
  • Senya trying to push them to work together.
  • AU where instead of deciding to work together, they end up being forced into it by circumstances (maybe while still enemies, maybe between Arcann's defeat and him deciding to join up).
  • The Consular finally snapping at Arcann a little when Arcann makes some comment about his dad, because if anyone is upset about the Sith Emperor being attached to his mind it's the Barsen'thor.
  • The Consular still having issues physically from Arcann stabbing him and Arcann now having to deal with that directly.
  • Some unrelated injury resulting in shirt off for the Consular and Arcann seeing the scar he left, or Arcann having flashbacks to killing Thexan after stabbing the Consular.
  • The Consular pushing harder and harder and people already in the Alliance not realizing just how much he's working because it's increased slowly and they're used to it, but to Arcann coming in late it seems crazy and he can see the signs of it wearing on him.
  • The Consular having to use his shielding technique for some reason with Arcann there, whether they're allies yet or not. Especially if he has to use his shielding technique on Arcann.
  • Pre-KOTFE AU where Arcann and his brother are sent out to go capture the Consular proactively instead of Valkorion having them attack unrelated people and waiting for the Consular to come to him.
  • Another character being the Commander and Arcann ending up working with the Consular for some reason (maybe the Alliance figures if anyone could pick up on any signs of him backsliding, it's the Barsen'thor?)
  • Arcann catching feelings when he's still Emperor and having to deal with all the emotional issues of that all mixed up with the general envy and anger and res that he already feels towards them.


Andronikos/M!Sith Inquisitor
  • Andronikos's POV of canon missions and the weird shit the SI gets up to.
  • Canon typical weirdness/missions/whatever the SI gets up to between the end of their personal arc and the start of SOR.
  • Loyalty sneaking up on Andronikos.
  • Them ending up in a nebulous relationship where they're sort of in a something but haven't actually talked anything out.
  • Andronikos getting dragged to official Sith things.
  • Andronikos finding the SI early on in KOTFE and being there for more of the stuff that goes down with the Alliance.
  • As an expansion on the above: Andronikos not being nearly as bothered as everyone else is about the SI having yet another powerful force ghost hanging about trying to take over his body or murder him or whatever. (Or being incredibly bothered once he realizes that this one is an Actual Danger more than the others ever were)
  • That five year gap where the SI is just gone and Andronikos doesn't know if they're really dead or if they've abandoned him (or if he abandoned them by not somehow getting them off that dreadnought) or if they're somehow captured somewhere and then they just show back up.



M!Sith Warrior/Theron
  • Enemies to allies to enemies to allies to faked enemies but only Theron knows that to allies and wherever lovers might fit into that whole confusing emotional timeline.
  • Theron being a disaster who's very good at his job but also being so good at it makes him somehow even more of a disaster.
  • After Theron's fake betrayal, and how the Warrior being someone who is very very good at killing traitors plays into the emotions around that whole thing for both of them.
  • The two of them having very different ideas of how serious their relationship is, or different ideas about how much they're actually broken up between Yavin and Ziost.
  • During that five year gap, with Theron having to deal with his emotions and memories and the uncertainty of that whole situation. And then him having to deal with a Warrior who doesn't have five years of distance from the last time they spoke.
  • Canon divergence during the Alliance where someone else is the Outlander and Theron has to deal with the Wrath of the Empire being interested in him and all the temporary alliance stress and angst and weirdness that would go with that.
  • Canon divergence where they meet up earlier than Manaan. Maybe Theron gets caught up in some Sithy thing. Maybe the Warrior was surprisingly good at faking undercover and Theron doesn't realize he's dealing with the Wrath of the Empire until after everything goes down and he gets back in contact with the SIS to do spy information gathering stuff. Or maybe it's well in the past when the Warrior hasn't made a name for himself yet.
  • Shenanigans during SOR or the Alliance.
  • Theron getting access to a lot more of what the Warrior knows or has in his ship's databases about other Sith after the Alliance starts up, especially if some of it starts changing what he knows about the Warrior.
  • Having to figure out what their new dynamic is once the Alliance is officially a thing that isn't going away anytime soon, as they both realize that they aren't going to be able to go back to their old roles after this.














  • I'm fairly vanilla so if it's really out there and not something mentioned here maybe I'm not the best recip, but I'm not easily squicked by anything that isn't in my DNWs (or directly along those lines) so don't worry too much if it's something borderline. Even most of the stuff in my DNWs is more of a "gonna scrolllllll right past this part" type thing rather than a "gotta backspace out of the fic" type thing.
  • Smut for me is mostly about the leadup, the emotions, the skin contact, the conversations during, and how it affects their relationship.
  • You can get a little rougher or dubconnyish if you want as long as both characters are really into it.
  •  
  • Likes/Prompts:
  • One part of a threesome pulling back for a few moments during sex and admiring the other two.
  • One of them deliberately taking aphrodisiacs (with everyone in the ship aware and consent given ahead of time) as a way to lose control a bit.
  • One of them deliberately letting themselves get affected by sex pollen (in order to finish a mission or something) having negotiated ahead of time exactly how they would deal with it.
  • Accidental sex pollen or heat incident where no sex happens (just a lot of h/c and doting)
  • Attempts at safe, sane and consensual... but can be poorly negotiated on all fronts or just straight up a bad idea but they're into it.
  • Arguments leading to sex, continuing during sex, or interrupting sex.
  • Attempts at dirty talk leading to emotional conversations or outbursts.
  • Serious emotional conversations interrupting sex (or happening during ongoing sex)
  • Character's guard goes down enough to mention things during sex that they're too embarrassed to talk about once they aren't turned on.
  • Someone going through something really rough, either emotionally or physically, and just really needing to be a pillow princess and get doted on this time.
  • One character going uncharacteristically quiet or something mid-sex and the other noticing and stopping to make sure they're alright.
  • Very very careful sex with an injured character.
  • Body worship of a character who got tied up expecting something very different.
  • Sex just triggering a breakdown due to a completely unrelated issue and the affected character trying to get that across to a very concerned/panicked partner.
  • H/C leading to makeouts or sex.
  • Non-penetrative sex (especially intercrual)
  • Gentle breathplay, biting, scratching, bondage, manhandling, one character pining another down, and other things along those lines.
  •  
  • Bottom Preferences for anal: For these pairings I vaguely prefer Lavellan, Varric, Scott, the Sith Inquisitor, the Consular, and Theron bottoming, but that's just a vague preference that I'm only even mentioning because I know some people get nervous without it being stated. I like switching and I love "person usually on bottom is topping this time" scenarios, so if your preferences are different from mine then feel free to go with what you find hotter! (For the threesomes, I don't have a preference for the characters not mentioned here).
  • The above preferences don't apply to blowjobs at all for me. Blowjobs are equal opportunity ground. It doesn't apply to any other sex act or to who is dominant emotionally/verbally either.
  •  
  • Note on Fade To Blacks: If you aren't comfortable (or don't have time for) writing smut but feel like it belongs in the fic, I am totally fine with fade to blacks.




  • Humiliation.
  • Severe social ineptness.
  • Planned public declarations of love (outbursts are fine).
  • Embarrassing cultural misunderstandings .
  • Cheating.
  • Suspicion of cheating that isn't immediately shot down.
  • Unrequested poly.
  • Open relationships (even for poly ships).
  • V type relationships for requested poly.
  • Misunderstandings centered around thinking someone is in another relationship (unless it's leading to requested poly and the pair they think are in a relationship are both part of the poly ship).
  • Unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons.
  • Non-canon background or previous relationships for characters the fic is focused on with other named characters or with unnamed characters who appear in the fic.
  • Modern AUs.
  • Crossovers.
  • Non-canon slavery.
  • Non-canon permanent maiming/incapacitation.
  • Graphic description of wounds.
  • Graphic torture.
  • Prostitution.
  • Non-canon permanent named character death.
  • Canon character death resulting from a forced either/or choice.
  • Custom Names for Player Characters if default ones exist.
  • Noncon, fear of Noncon, or focus on past Noncon.
  • Unrequested Dubcon.
  • Sex with a sex pollen victim who is unable to give clearheaded consent (unless consent is given ahead of time).

  • Disciplinary punishment in a sexual context.

  • Leaving anyone behind in the fade.
  • Killing the Chargers

  • Andromeda DNWs
  • Anything to do with Kadara, Exiled Colonists, Colonists turned Raiders, the Nexus Uprising, ect. This includes colonists who were exiled but went their own way, mentions of anything involving exile, and any nameless colonists-turned-raiderlike-minons for non-exiled Initiative characters. (EXCEPTION: Canon divergences fixits that solve the Uprising without exiling them or Jien lived scenarios). It's okay to have the effects of it in there (eg: the Krogan Colony or Kandros being head of security), just not direct references to the DNWed stuff.
  • The non-Pathfinder twin resenting the Pathfinder twin.

  • SWTOR DNWs
  • Nadia having a crush on the Consular or Jaesa having a crush on the Warrior.
  • A chaotic-evil darksided Sith (or Jaesa). Affable or intimidating darksided is fine, just not "torture and mwhahaha because I feel like it" darksided.
  • Darksided Consular (grey or struggling is fine).
  • The Consular having solved Act 1 with murder.
  • Bad end for Theron
  • Failing to rescue a companion at the end of KOTET (unless they're saved as well later).
  • The "save two leave one" escape pod thing.



Thank you for writing for me! <3 There's a lot of rambling here, but if you don't see a prompt you want to write and have an idea that you think I'll like feel free to go for it! I'm really really super easy to please and everything here is either a beloved rarepair or a character I really like and would love anything focusing on. I tried to do some prompts that are super detailed with a lot of "or maybe" and some that are just quick starts to a scenario or a focus on a character aspect. There's also a bunch of general prompts and likes in that section that should apply to most things.

Since this is all games, three of which are entirely customizable characters, my prompts for them have a heavy flavoring of how I personally play/write them and I'm sure some headcanons snuck in. I know that's not always going to match up with how other people play/see them, and I'm the sort of person where encountering a different take often revitalizes a game for me (because I get to play it in a new way!) so please feel free to write them how you prefer them or to experiment around with personalities. Any versions that I truely don't want are in my DNWs where they belong and otherwise I promise I'm truly happy to get alternate takes!


Table of Contents




Note on Custom Names:
  • Since I DNWed custom names I just wanted to list the defaults for the ones I requested here. I'm totally happy to see the different personalities everyone's versions of the characters have and don't want them to be blank slates! It's just the names that sometimes throw me out of the story.
  • Dragon Age: Garrett Hawke, Mahanon Lavellan
  • Andromeda: Scott Ryder, Sara Ryder
  • SWTOR: I'd prefer their titles or canon aliases/nicknames/things-that-companion-calls-them if it's a situation where that makes sense, but otherwise it's fine if you need an actual name! The sith sort of have names if those make sense for the story. Imperius, Occlus, or Nox for Sith Inquisitor. A spoiler but you know it if you've played it for Sith Warrior.

Spoilers in this letter:
  • Dragon Age - DA2, and Inquisition main quests/DLC.
  • Andromeda - Main quests, pre-game background spoilers, and Gil's questline.
  • SWTOR - The expansions up to KOTET. Act 1 of the Consular Storyline and Consular's titles/roles. How some of the other player characters end up and hints at some of their endgame roles.
  • Prey - Completely and utterly spoils every twist in the game.


 
  • Emotions and talking, especially at inconvenient times.
  • Hurt/Comfort (emotional or physical or both)
  • Mutual pining.
  • Pre-relationship or get-togethers.
  • Fluff.
  • One person pining and the other(s) being clueless until they find out and it hits them like a truck. Especially if they've previously unknowingly done things to convince the pining character that they've got no chance, and now they have to fix that.
  • Friends closing ranks around someone who's usually the responsible one and can't be right now.
  • Character hiding something that can't be fixed (injury, exhaustion, a curse, ect), and the aftermath when the hidden thing is revealed.
  • Imposter syndrome.
  • For games with multiple background options for the player characters, the player character in a prompted pairing being in a companion role while another player character is the [insert title here] this time.
  • Stuff that emphasizes how smart or clever or competent the characters are, even if it's just tiny hints in the background.
  • The paired characters having friendships and relationships beyond just the pairing, especially if they came into it with canon ties.
  • All of the characters have their canon faults and insecurities and I love stuff that actually has some of that in there, though I know emphasizing that doesn't fit with every fic.
  • Slice of life.
  • Snippets of changing the place that they're spending canon in into something that feels lived in, especially if they're building it or fixing up an old ruin.
  • Canon divergence.
  • Fix-its, whether it's just fixing a small thing or if it's straight up Everyone Lives Nobody Dies.
  • Post fix-its or canon divergence. As in the fic just handwaves that the thing was already fixed at some point before or just straight up didn't happen and moves on without focusing on it.
  • If there's something awkward or embarrassing or ooc in canon that you hate, feel free to ignore it. I'm cool with handwaving away stuff if it'll be more fun to write with that detail changed. Especially if it's something small that ruins something large for you.
  • I enjoy non-standard formats (epistolary, notes to self, chatroom, outsider pov, Varric's exaggerated narration with flashbacks to what actually happened, a collection of related snippets, ect), so feel free to play around with that sort of thing if you want to!

It's been awhile since I played Inquisition so it's possible there's some headcanony stuff in here that I've tricked myself into thinking is canon, and since I play Blue/Purple Hawke and a more diplomatic Inquisitor the prompts are definitely slanted that direction. I tried to double check as I wrote this but if anything is blatantly wrong and/or you don't want to write it that way, feel free to ignore it!

M!Lavellan/M!Hawke/Varric
  • This is basically "You're all great at talking why aren't you better at communicating" the ship for me.
  • It doesn't have to end with the ship nicely tied off, but please either have all three together, established relationship Hawke/Varric that are very obviously full steam towards threesome station, or none of them together but it's hopeful in the threesome direction. Basically I want it to be a threesome endgame, not a threesome rest stop on the way to a twosome endgame.
  • Here Lies the Abyss stuff is fine as long as no one actually gets left in there.
  • Actual prompts now:
  • Hawke and Varric getting back to Kirkwall post game that Hawke suddenly realizes that Varric is actually super attached to Lavellan. Especially if Hawke had never really properly met Lavellan besides briefly working with him on missions. And then Hawke decides to fix it, in proper Hawke fashion (the whole "give him the key to the city and make him a Comte" plan that Varric pulled in Trespasser has Purple!Hawke all over it). It's fine if it's all set up with just Hawke and Varric planning, so Lavellan is on their minds in a shippy way and central to the story in concept but not actually appearing. Especially if Hawke thinks he's just helping Varric out and then manages to catch feelings based on half remembered interactions and Varric's stories.
  • The aftermath of Trespasser, after Varric totally-not-kidnapping the ex-Inquisitor to Kirkwall. With the emotional fallout from everything in Trespasser (Lavellan's arm and him having possibly been expecting to die, how things ended with the Inquisition and the spies, Solas, Hawke and Varric being guilty about things that were out of their control because they seem to do that a lot, ect). Maybe something more serious, maybe something h/c, maybe something more fluffy and recovery focused, maybe all of that mixed in with general Kirkwall shenanigans.
  • During Inquisition, Lavellan not being entirely comfortable around Hawke and sometimes slipping away from conversations with Varric because he's never read that book that everyone keeps referencing and isn't sure what things about Hawke and Varric and Kirkwall everyone will assume he already knows and doesn't want to offend (Not pretending to have read it or anything, just trying to carefully navigate around it), and them noticing that and trying to fix it. Maybe they think he's just not comfortable for reasons related to his background, or maybe they misinterpret it as a crush. Especially if Varric and Hawke are already in a relationship and them trying to put him at ease morphs into flirting as they get to know him better and whoops now Lavellan has to worry about both cluelessness and a crush on two people who may or may not be seriously flirting with him.
  • Lavellan having a crush on Varric before Hawke shows up and then checking himself hard once they meet Hawke and he realizes how into each other they are.
  • Hawke accidentally doing something that's considered high key flirting in Dalish culture towards Lavellan and one of them telling him that, then Hawke turning around and "jokingly" doing the high key Dalish flirting thing at Varric while Lavellan is in the background just being all quietly "oh no" on about a dozen levels, and whatever results from that.
  • Lavellan and Hawke both getting really enthusiastic about hiking and camping somewhere nice for a change and trying to convince Varric that it's totally fun and not an ordeal. Especially if Lavellan is super enthusiastic about the convincing but Hawke has been through this set of conversations a hundred times before and is just enjoying teasing Varric.
  • The aftermath of Here Lies the Abyss after the Nightmare aired everyone's insecurities and fears all out in the open. And Lavellan dealing with finally figuring out wtf happened in Haven on top of that.
  • Hawke and Varric pining and flirting but totally not flirting and generally being super obvious, until Lavellan sits them down for a "I don't know you well enough for this but nobody else will do it so here we are, please talk about your relationship or lack thereof because half the Inquisition is debating it and it's gonna cause a fight soon" talk. And then, whether they actually address their own relationship or not, they're both like "Well that was hot" (or some other reaction that leads in a threesomey direction).
  • Hawke and Varric keeping up their totally just besties thing until one of them starts flirting with Lavellan and whoops suddenly the other realizes he had feelings afterall.
  • Hawke trying to matchmake Lavellan and Varric, especially if Varric immediately realizes what he's doing and laughs it off and Lavellan is silently like welp there sure are feelings that I didn't realize existed until right this moment.
  • Hawke and Lavellan both drowning in misplaced guilt/stress/imposter syndrome, and Varric trying to handle them. Or maybe Varric just trying to deal with Hawke and in dealing with Hawke he sees Lavellan getting more and more stressed and he's already on operation Cheer Up It's Not Your Fault with Hawke so why not add one more. Especially since Varric is putting a lot of responsibility on himself over all the red lyrium and is just better at not being obvious about it and these two stressing is just one more thing for him to feel guilty over.
  • Things kind of coming to a head during the events of Trespasser as the anchor gets worse and worse and it gets clearer and clearer that this isn't something they can fix and all sorts of things-unsaid-that-should-have-been-said-earlier start coming up. Especially if Lavellan had started pulling away from people once he realized that the anchor was killing him so Hawke and Varric are suddenly piecing a lot of things together that hadn't made sense before.


M!Hawke/Dorian
  • The two of them having a rocky start, especially if it's a misunderstanding over a joke or comment one of them absentmindedly made and the one who said the thing has no idea why this other guy is snippy at them but hell if they aren't gonna give as good as they get.
  • They've got such very different communication styles and ways of dealing with people while both being a bit over the top that it could lead to all sorts of wonderful arguments and misunderstandings.
  • Dorian being a bit envious of Hawke.
  • The two of them having to go on a mission together and just being ridiculous, especially if it ends up in arguments that are half flirting without either of them being fully sure it's flirting until it really kicks off.
  • Alternatively, Hawke just being super ridiculously flirty from the getgo and Dorian not being at all used to that or good at dealing with it.
  • Explicitly casual sex that they are both definitely on board with being totally casual (that's a lie, they're emotional disasters). Maybe they don't even manage to keep up the casual even through the entire encounter. Maybe they do and then they're both so distracted by being Casual the next time they go out on a mission that one of them gets hurt and things get emotional.

Alec Ryder & Sara Ryder & Scott Ryder
  • Canon divergence where Alec is still alive. Especially if he still had to transfer Sam to one of the twins on Habitat 7 so he's got one twin in a coma, and one twin who's not doing so great from gas inhalation. Especially if he needs the second twin in fighting form as fast as possible because they've got to access the remnant so he's trying to make that happen without breaking them.
  • Canon divergence where they took one look at Habitat 7 and decided to find the Nexus first so you've got the original Pathfinder team (including both twins) on the Tempest.
  • The twins finding out about Sam pre-game, whether it's when he's connected to their mom or if they find out after her death and suddenly a whole bunch of things make a lot of sense that didn't before.
  • One (or both) of the twins having second thoughts about the whole move-to-another-galaxy thing before launch, and Alec desperately trying to get them to come along to (what he assumes is) safety without actually telling them that there's a catastrophe on the horizon that could kill them if they stayed.
  • Sam having to help whichever Ryder he's in the head of navigate their dysfunctional family.


Ryder
  • Canon divergence where the other twin didn't get put into a coma, but the events of Habitat 7 still happened for one of them so you've got both twins on the Tempest with one of them being Pathfinder.
  • Either separately or in addition to the above, Alec surviving Habitat 7 but having to be put in a coma or back into cyro to keep him alive and how that changes the dynamics of things in the game.
  • The aftermath of Ryder having Sam kill them on the Archon's ship. The game has a little of it from Lexi, but that had to be traumatizing for everyone involved (Sam, Ryder, everyone who was with them or on comms, anyone who out afterwards). Maybe Ryder is insisting it's no big deal. Maybe it changes how some people are interacting with them. Maybe it's suddenly reminded a bunch of people that Ryder is in fact mortal (or the opposite, since they keep getting back up). Maybe how the Angara react to that, especially if Ryder's either already in a relationship or heading towards one with one of them.
  • I love slight AUs where the twins are more on the same genius scale as their parents or have different professional backgrounds than the canon ones and whatever their jobs are plays into their role on the Tempest (even if they're having to balance it with Pathfinder now).
  • As an extension of the above, the non-Pathfinder twin actually being essential personnel on the Nexus after they wake up (and maybe them getting out of the coma earlier but still having a long physical recovery) and getting to help out with some of the missions that need things done Nexus-side because of that. Especially if leadership is sort of guiltily glad that this twin is too injured to fight still because while one of them can't replace Alec, the combo of one out in the field and one on the Nexus working on tech and both of them having that Ryder ability to get things dealt with quickly and cleverly sure does go a long way towards it.
  • The twins communicating a lot more after the coma twin wakes up (again, especially if they wake up a bit earlier than in canon).
  • Sam and the Pathfinder having some adjustment woes as they try to figure out their new normal.
  • The Tempest crew getting to explore an uninhabited planet for some sort of remnant related reason and just a bunch of exploration and remnant related weirdness.
  • Returning to Habitat 7.
  • Slice of life stuff between missions, whether it's fun domestic crew things or recovering from some of the heavier missions (or trying to focus on silly domestic stuff to avoid having to deal with the heavier stuff).
  •  
  • Optional Pairings for Scott: Liam, Jaal, Jaal/Liam, Kandros, Evfra, Gil
  • Optional Pairings for Sara: Vetra, Jaal, Jaal/Liam


Jien Garson
  • Pre-game, dealing with The Benefactor. Especially if it starts to look like a really bad idea but by that point she's in too deep so she can't risk turning back.
  • Pre-game, just all the chaos of planning something as massive as the Initiative.
  • Pre-game stuff with Addison and how their friendship worked. (Optionally shippy)
  • Canon divergence where she survived (or wasn't threatened at all). How it would change things for the Nexus, how it would change how the Benefactor influenced things, and how she'd react to the Hyperion getting there and Alec being dead and needing to work with a Pathfinder that she might not even know that well (unless you want to pair it with something like one of the Alec-lives AU's in the other prompts which I am totally here for).

I still haven't finished past KOTET because I am a s l a c k e r who can't be made to play things she's supposed to apparently. I'll finish it soon though, so if there's something from those chapters that you think will work really well with any of the themes of stuff here, feel free to use it! If there's anything super headcanony in here (spoiler alert there is in the Consular section) then feel free to ignore or use it as works for you!

Arcann/M!Consular
  • Preferably no "oh no relationships lead to the dark side" type emotional issues, since the Consular doesn't seem to be at all fussed in canon and is open about it with the rest of the Jedi in one of the romances (I haven't played the other so I'm not sure if it's the case in both).
  • The Consular's Act 1 shielding technique where he has to sacrifice some of his life force to shield people is my everything. Every time he shields someone it visibly exhausts him and they make it very clear that using it too many times will kill him. He only successfully uses it in game against Vivicar, but it's mentioned a few times in their other Acts and talked about like it'll work against any force influence so that's what I tend to go with. I kind of headcanon that Jedi can rebuild life force over time (it rebuilding seems to be supported ingame by implication in unrelated plotlines but I can't remember it ever explicitly coming up) but it being slow and taking a lot of meditation.
  • I tend to headcanon The Consular having essentially skipped field training and not having originally been meant for a combat role (since he basically goes from Day-1-Padawan to Barsen'thor at a full sprint without pausing). Arcann probably didn't get much if any practical training either (and definitely didn't get any therapy) so who knows how bad his coping strategies are.
  • Actual prompts now:
  • The two of them taking a bit longer to trust each other than they do in Canon, even after they start working together. The Consular trying real hard to be all Jedi about it but it being kind of hard considering everything Arcann has done (Especially what he's done to the Consular and people the Consular cares about, and the Consular feeling guilty about giving that greater emotional weight than larger tragedies.)
  • Senya trying to push them to work together.
  • Arcann expecting to deal with the sort of person Valkorian wants the Consular to be, and instead he's dealing with the sort of nerd that someone like Yuon would pick as a Padawan. Just generally Arcann having to readjust his expectations since so much of what he knows about the Consular is rumor and assumptions and stereotypes and glorified accounts of fights. (And also the Consular very consciously having to adjust what he knows about Arcann since Arcann's personality is so different now and all the uncertainty that comes with that)
  • Them ending up having to work together after Voss but before Arcann was really ready for that. Maybe the Consular gets injured or something while separated from the Alliance and Arcann is forced to make a choice and step in to save him. Or the Consular's normal "my life force is low from shielding but I'm fine" coping methods aren't working as well in this situation or aren't fooling Arcann as well as they fool normal people because he's watching the Consular super closely looking for signs of his father.
  • The Consular finally snapping at Arcann a little when Arcann makes some comment about his father in relation to the Consular, because if anyone is upset about the Sith Emperor being attached to his mind it's the Barsen'thor.
  • Arcann having trouble understanding how very much the Consular does not want anything to do with the power Valkorion keeps offering him and still dealing with some issues being envious of him. Especially if it's less about the power and more about the respect and attention.
  • The Consular still having issues physically from Arcann stabbing him and Arcann now having to deal with that directly.
  • Some unrelated injury resulting in shirt off for the Consular and Arcann seeing the scar he left, especially if he'd half convinced himself that his strike must have been off or something for the Consular to survive it.
  • The Consular pushing harder and harder and people already in the Alliance not realizing just how much he's working because it's increased slowly and they're used to it, but to Arcann coming in late it seems crazy and he can see the signs of it wearing on him.
  • Some other enemy forcing them to work together while Arcann is still emperor, especially if the Consular has to use his shielding technique for whatever reason and it puts him off balance enough for it to be extra dangerous to be alone with an enemy. Especially if he has to use his shielding technique on Arcann.
  • Canon Divergence where there was no cure on Voss and Arcann has to find a new path and deal with everything without being able to hit the reset button back to lightsided, and them ending up having to work together in that context with Arcann still very much not stable. (But on the plus side Senya is probably conscious).
  • Pre-KOTFE AU where Valkorian sends Arcann and Thexan after the Consular proactively instead of having them attack unrelated people to bait him in. Maybe they get forced into working together. Maybe when they're trying to catch him Arcann catches feelings instead. Maybe Thexan is already looking for a way out. Maybe Senya follows them.


Lana Beniko's many headaches
  • Lana's viewpoint of things during/after Manaan, and having to get used to working with someone from the Republic. Theron, if the player character is Imperial, both of them if the player character is Republic. Especially if they're a Jedi.
  • Having to balance the situation and her loyalties on Yavin. Maybe she's little relieved that Theron outright and obviously distrusting her makes people less likely to suspect her of shifting loyalties. Maybe she's just trying to hyperfocus into everything and what comes of it she'll deal with afterwards.
  • The early days of her being in charge of Imperial Intelligence, especially if the player character is Cipher Nine and they keep refusing to rejoin and then randomly popping up with advice or tips in places they shouldn't even be able to get to about things they shouldn't even know.
  • Between Shadow of Revan and Ziost, with Lana manipulating things to avoid coming into conflict with a Republic side player character. Maybe she doesn't want to find out who would win that fight. Maybe she's telling herself it's practical (for any number of reasons). Maybe she just emotionally can't do it.
  • For a Republic player character, having to redefine the relationship she had with the player character down to just a matter of convenience even though they were very quickly becoming friends (or more).
  • For a Sith player character, transitioning back to their respective places and having to act much less informally than they had before because Lana isn't technically one of their people. (And also the effects of technically being one of their people in their eyes). Maybe something weird comes up and they contact her about it. Maybe she needs to call on them for help with something. Maybe it's just sort of background to her trying to figure out her new position in the Sith and however that relationship/friendship affects her politically.
  • Ziost, especially her finding the player character and that sheer relief. Especially if they're a Republic character and on one hand she's pissed because it's part of Theron's whole mess but on the other she's just so ridiculously relieved to find someone she can rely on and it's the first thing that makes the situation feel winnable.
  • The five years between Ziost and KOTET, especially the leadup to that final rescue mission and all the emotions she had to be having while getting the Outlander out of carbonite and dealing with the poisoning.
  • Dealing with all the shenanigans of the Alliance.
  •  
  • Optional Pairings with Lana: Any female player character or Shae Vizla

Morgan Yu
  • I tried real hard to keep everything here gender neutral for Morgan. If I slipped up and said "she" at any point just read it as a "they". (I play the game as F!Morgan but since these are gen prompts I'm fine with either. Genderqueer or trans Morgan is fine too, as long as it's background info rather than the major focus of the fic.).
  • Pre-game Morgan trying to figure out how to fit into their life on the station without any memories of it, without being able to tell anyone that their memories were completely wiped.
  • Things going down differently for real!Morgan than for Tython!Morgan. Maybe January didn't even exist for real!Morgan and they had to muddle through entirely on their own based on what information they found elsewhere. Maybe the "blank" day didn't exist for real!Morgan so from their perspective they woke up on earth and whoops nevermind they weren't on earth at all and now they can instinctively levitate things and shapeshift into cups and also everyone is dying. Maybe real!Morgan was pulled out of the simulation and spent the start of the outbreak with other people rather than waking up alone in the fake apartment. Maybe Alex was a lot more involved and focused on getting his sibling the hell out of there. Maybe real!Morgan was supposed to take the escape pod and their refusal to do so is what made that choice such an important one for Tython!Morgan.
  • The weirdness of finding out they were in a relationship with someone they've never met, especially if Mikhaila is suddenly piecing together why Morgan suddenly went cold on her and is feeling like she's got Morgan back for the first time in awhile and being really obvious about it. If you include them finding out about Mikhaila's dad then I'd rather Morgan tells her and they have to deal with the emotional fallout from that (especially if they'd been getting really cute, or as cute as one can practically be in the middle of an alien outbreak, right before Morgan went off to find the info).
  • Morgan noticing that their personality is different now and getting really freaked out about it, especially if Alex is in more constant communication and has had these conversations before and is desperately trying to guide Morgan back into being Morgan without making the mistakes he has on other loops.
  • People responding with a bit more alarm to Morgan still being on the station, Morgan having Tython powers, and the revelation that not only does Morgan remember nothing about the station but they've probably talked to her between mindwipes without realizing what was up.
  • The successful Tython!Morgan getting echoes of what the unsuccessful ones did when they interact with the Coral. Maybe even being able to use those visions to avert events in ways that the simulation wasn't intending and save people who didn't survive the real outbreak by doing things in the "wrong" order.


Sarah Elazar
  • Slight (or major) AU where either Elazar follows up on her intentions to confront Alex about Morgan being an unwilling test subject in the loop phase, or does a more detailed investigation. Maybe she finds some of the clues that Morgan is leaving for themself or January/December or is just generally able to get more information about what's going on, and what she does with that.
  • As an extension of the above, maybe instead of Morgan having a day of blank neuromods, Elazar manages to get authorization to break things up a day early and pulls Morgan out of the simulation. And then things start going to hell so now she's got a very confused VP with Tython powers who wants to go fix everything (and figure out wtf) to babysit, and she's got to make all the choices about how much to tell a Morgan who has no clue what they've done. On top of trying to keep everyone alive.
  • How the outbreak went down from Elazar's perspective. We know they ended up in the cargo bay but not much about how they got there or what led to it.
  • During the events of the game with the real Morgan, the two of them trading notes trying to figure out everything that was happening and Morgan struggling to deal with what seems from their perspective like a betrayal by Alex.




  • I'm pretty vanilla, so when in doubt assume it's probably too kinky to me (unless it fits in with the stuff below). If something in here seems to contradict a DNW, assume I forgot to add in 'unrequested' because boy did I have to go back a lot as I thought of exceptions.
  • Light/soft BSDM (Think praising and affectionate type domination. No insults or punishments that are meant to hurt or humiliate, please), bondage, wax play, pretending at knife play without actually breaking the skin, gentle breathplay, rough kisses, biting each other's lips, biting hard enough to leave teethmarks but not to bruise or break skin, gentle manhandling, size kink (for some pairings), gentle hair pulling
  • (Just to clarify, insults are okay in angry-sex, just not in a Dom/Sub situation.)
  • You can get a little rougher or dubconnyish if you want as long as both characters are really into it and the person being roughed up encourages it or taunts it into happening. The big thing with me is the consent factor, so as long as it's very clear both characters consent before whatever-it-is starts, then it should be fine.
  • Angry sex, or super soft and careful sex, or soft and careful sex with a character who can't deal with that emotionally but also doesn't want to stop, or one character starting angry sex that ends up being soft and wrecking them, or really really happy sex with lots of butterfly kisses and loving whispers. Basically if there are a lot of emotions I'm gonna like it.
  • Penetrative sex, Nonpenetrative sex, Intercrual, Makeouts... I'm not picky on what goes where as long as it doesn't hit a dnw.
  • One or all of them still having most of their clothes on.
  • One of them being naked while the other isn't and being really self conscious about it.
  • One part of a threesome pulling back for a few moments during sex and 'mirin the other two.
  • Focus on skin contact. Blow jobs sort of fall under this for me but also just entirely normal contact like when someone they're pining for is gently holding their hand or arm or absentmindedly (or deliberately) stroking their skin or something and they're just so very aware of it. Or when they're leaning into someone and all the little touches that might come from that (Yes I realize how ridiculous it is to kink on handholding but touch is so great!)
  • One of them deliberately taking aphrodisiacs (with everyone in the ship aware and consent given ahead of time) as a way to lose control a bit.
  • One of them deliberately letting themselves get affected by sex pollen (in order to finish a mission or something) having negotiated ahead of time exactly how they would deal with it.
  • Accidental sex pollen or heat incident where they just spend the whole time they're affected making out and/or being ridiculously affectionate and needy (but not having sex).
  • Attempts at safe, sane and consensual... but can be poorly negotiated on all fronts or just straight up a bad idea but they're into it.
  • Arguments leading to sex.
  • Arguments leading to sex without actually stopping the argument.
  • Attempts at dirty talk leading to emotional conversations or outbursts that necessitate stopping the sex/foreplay/flirting (even if just for a moment).
  • One character gets on a tangent and tries to have a serious emotional conversation while in the middle of sex. Like, something is up someone's genitals level of middle of sex. The I-thought-we-were-sexing-not-emotioning character either trying to listen to them while very much focused on the arousal of the situation or trying to convince them that it's a for-later talk, while the emotional-convo character is both super turned on and super agitated every time they try to re-initiate sex instead of seriously talking.
  • Reemphasizing that above one specifically for m/m pairings I mean really just talking about their relationship or something while one of them is balls deep.
  • The same thing again except without the sex pausing and it turning into praise kink
  • Alternatively again both characters just being super sincerely into the conversation without stopping sex at all.
  • Character's guard goes down enough to mention things during sex that they're too embarrassed to talk about once they aren't turned on.
  • Pairings that are switches arguing about who is going to top/bottom this time and accidentally convincing themselves that they want to do the opposite position and now they've got to have the whole argument again the opposite way.
  • Someone going through something really rough, either emotionally or physically, and just really needing to be a pillow princess and get doted on this time.
  • One character going uncharacteristically quiet or something mid-sex and the other noticing and stopping to make sure they're alright (either leading to h/c or kink negotiation or something like that.). Maybe it doesn't even have anything to do with the sex but is something entirely different catching up to them at a bad time.
  • Having to keep quiet so their friends don't hear and being really bad at it.
  • Stuck in a small place and end up banging
  • Very very careful sex with an injured character.
  • Body worship of a character who got tied up expecting something very different and now they're super emotional about it.
  • Establishing a safeword then stopping when a character looks super distressed even if they haven't said the safeword.
  • Distressed character wanting to keep going anyways.
  • Character has been deliberately avoiding completely unrelated issues and something about the sex just triggers that breakdown and they're incredibly annoyed about it having to happen now and stopping sex they were enjoying up until they started crying and trying to get that across to a very concerned/panicked partner.
  • H/C leading to makeouts or sex.
  • The Comforter in a h/c situation stopping things from being sexual in that moment because they're worried the other person is too emotionally broken or physically injured at that time and then initiating a revisiting of the situation later when things seem more stable.
  • Taking care of a sex pollen/spell victim without doing anything sexual, then talking it over days or weeks later leads to dirty talk about what the comforter wished they could have done which leads to sex.
  • Top/Bottom Preferences: I honestly really like people switching? The only preference I have in these prompts is the Consular bottoming but it's not a hard must. (I've mentioned sort of preferring Lavellan bottoming in another letter but since he's in a threesome here it doesn't have to fall into those dynamics). I sort of prefer Scott bottoming if you go that direction but again not a hard must.




  • Humiliation. Severe social ineptness. Planned public declarations of love (outbursts are fine). Embarrassing cultural misunderstandings .
  • Cheating. Suspicion of cheating that isn't immediately shot down. Unrequested poly. Open relationships. Unprompted and non-canon casual sex. V type relationships for requested poly. Misunderstandings centered around thinking someone is in another relationship (unless it's leading to requested poly involving all three characters).
  • Unrequested non-canon relationships. Unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons. Character bashing (If you hate them please just leave them out). Modern AUs. Crossovers.
  • One half of the pairing trying to play matchmaker for the other half (unless it's one third of a threesome trying to matchmake the other two together). Fake Relationships (it's fine if everyone thinks they're in a relationship as long as they aren't actively pretending to be).
  • Noncon, fear of Noncon or focus on past Noncon. Unrequested Dubcon. Unrequested Sex Pollen. Unrequested drunken or drugged sex. Ageplay. Underaged. Incest. Prostitution. Mentor/Mentee. Kissing after throwing up. Spanking (it's fine to have light smacks in a non-spanking fashion whether it's a sex thing or a 'gonna whap your butt because we're messing around' thing, just not repeated blows in a disciplinary fashion). Sex with a sick character (it's fine if they're injured or magically ill, just not if they've got the flu or something). Rimming. Fisting. Sounding. Blowjobs after anal.
  • Torture. Non-canon slavery. Non-canon permanent maiming/incapacitation. Graphic description of wounds.
  • Non-canon permanent named character death. Canon character death resulting from a forced either/or choice.
  • Custom Names for Player Characters if default ones exist (For the ones I requested their default names are Garrett Hawke, Mahanon Lavellan, Sara Ryder, and Scott Ryder.)
  • Fandom specific DNWs below (separated a bit to try to isolate spoilers)




  • Dragon Age DNW
  • Viscount Hawke or The Inquisitor taking a hard anti-mage stance.




  • Andromeda DNWs
  • Anything to do with Kadara, Exiled Colonists, Colonists turned Raiders, the Nexus Uprising, ect. This includes colonists who were exiled but went their own way, mentions of anything involving exile, and any nameless colonists-turned-raiderlike-minons for non-exiled Initiative characters. (EXCEPTIONS: Canon divergences fixits that happen before the Hyperion shows up. It's fine if you have them throwing everyone back into cyro or just having it never happen because Jien lived too.). It's okay to have the effects of it in there (eg: the Krogan Colony or Kandros being head of security), just not direct references to the DNWed stuff.
  • If you choose to use Gil/Scott as a background flavor to Scott gen: That whole mess in Gil's Quest (the dnw is more specific on AO3, I just didn't want to spoiler here). I like Jill and having her do her thing or being all hinthint is fine, even mentioning it in a "maybe eventually but we met each other five seconds ago slow down" sort of way, just not the way it played out in-game.
  • The non-Pathfinder twin resenting the Pathfinder twin.




  • SWTOR DNWs
  • Any hint of Nadia having a crush on the Consular.
  • A chaotic-evil darksided Sith (or Jaesa). Affable or intimidating darksided is fine, just not "torture and mwhahaha because I feel like it" darksided. (No darksided at all for Jedi, though gray or struggling Jedi is fine for the Lana focused prompts. No anythingsided for non-force sensitive characters)





  • Prey DNW
  • Murdereveryone!Morgan unless it's in a prompt.
  • I'd prefer not to get sex for this one. (As in just Prey, it's still completely on the table for the others!)



Hurt/Comfort Letter

Thank you so much for writing for me! <3 There's a lot here, but it's mostly just really rambly elaboration on what was in my signups and extra prompts. If I didn't say a lot that doesn't mean I want it less, just that I had less specific prompt ideas! Feel free to use or not use the prompts as you want to, I tried to sort of theme my requests via freeform tags but past that I really love H/C and will be pretty easy to make happy with it. I tried to do prompts for a variety of lengths so feel free to take as much or little as you need to.

Since so many of these involve player characters, that means that a lot of my prompts are colored by how I personally saw them and which choices I made as I played, some of which I haven't played for awhile so I'm sure there's a lot headcanons in there on accident. I usually end up with several versions of every character so even in my own head I'm not married to a single personality for each of them. If you see the characters differently or prefer to emphasize different traits than what I focused on then feel free to write it that way! The prompts are there to help give possible directions and to give you an idea of how I see/play the characters, that's all <3

This should be as edited as it's going to ever be! I found some prompts that were incomplete/confusing and thought of a couple that needed to be added a few hours after assignments went out, so if you checked my letter immediately things may have changed slightly since then, but I'm not even gonna look at it again so no worries about things changing from this point forward.

Note on Tags:
  • Since so many of the tags are essentially prompts in and of themselves, I didn't necessarily mention all of them in the relationship sections. Consider them the initial prompts, and the rambling under each relationship as elaboration and extra prompts.
  • I separated out Main and Optional tags to make it easy to see which was in which section of the request and because I had to split them somewhere.

Note on Custom Names:
  • Since I DNWed custom names I just wanted to list the defaults for the ones I requested here.
  • Dragon Age: Garrett Hawke, Marian Hawke, Maxwell Trevelyan, Mahanon Lavellan, Ellana Lavellan, and Herah Adaar
  • Fire Emblem: Robin
  • SWTOR: Not actually dnwed in the signup since there aren't defaults for most of the classes. If it's a situation where it would make sense for them to use titles I'd prefer that, or for characters that have canon nicknames/things-they-call-them to use those. For Sith if they need an actual name I'd prefer they used the names they get during the story. For Inquisitor that's Imperius, Occulus, or Nox. Warrior's is a spoiler.
  • I'm totally happy to see the different personalities everyone's versions of the characters have and don't want them to be blank slates! It's just the names that sometimes throw me out of the story.

Note on Spoilers:
  • This whole thing is full of spoilers. Some are worse than others. I love these games, and I would hate to spoil the endings/twists, so if you haven't played any of them please be careful. (Especially for Prey, good lord please ignore that section of this letter if you even think you might play it in the future. Don't even read the freeforms. Trust me, I can't even explain why I love this game without spoiling five different things.)  There are links back to the general likes in every chapter so you should be able to avoid scrolling past anything and each section is pretty long.
  • Dragon Age - It doesn't spoil any of the major twists as I see them, but it will spoil the outcomes of a couple quests and what happens to the Inquistor/The Inquisition during the last DLC.
  • Fire Emblem - Completely and utterly spoils every twist in the game.
  • SWTOR - It spoils the outcomes for a few different expansions up to the end of KOTET, as well as the titles/positions that some characters earn during their main story.
  • Prey - Completely and utterly spoils every twist in the game.




Table of Contents
  • I chose the "hurt" part of the tag as who I want to be physically hurt but feel free to emotionally torment as many people as possible
  • Even with injuries it's really more about the emotions for me. I'm fine with any level of shippy for ships, from sex to the ship being a framing for friendship focused stuff.
  • It's not H/C specific but mutual pining is like my One True Kink, so don't feel pressured to resolve the romance or have a confession in there (also don't feel pressured not to if it works with the story, I'll be happy either way).
  • Emotions and talking, especially at inconvenient times
  • Sickness heightening emotions and bringing unsaid things out
  • Worry about the sick/injured person heightening emotions and bringing unsaid things out
  • Non-healer partner feeling helpless and needing comfort from friends
  • Crying easier than normal and being really mad/upset about it
  • Friends and partners not being sure how to emotionally comfort someone
  • Friends closing ranks
  • Healer panicking because their partner is injured
  • Sick/injured/exhausted character comforting healthy people
  • People knowing about the injury but not realizing the emotional toll or thinking hurt character is dealing with the aftermath fine on their own
  • Magical exhaustion, especially caused by healing other people
  • Other characters find something out that sick/injured character sees as nothing and they Do Not.
  • Hiding something that can't be fixed (or they're actively causing via power usage) because they don't see the point in stressing other people out
  • Hiding grief/stress/insecurity

Prompts that Apply to All Inquisitors:
  •  A lot of horrible things happen to the Inquisitor during canon, and they just tend to get back up and skate past it.
  • Most of them aren't going to be used to dealing with this many people at once, or in this sort of role.
  • Lavellan especially could be vulnerable to colds and other infection diseases that they might not have had any contact with before since the clans are so isolated.
  • Being culturally isolated. Especially if it isn't even their religion that people think they're a Herald of.
  • The anchor hurts.
  • Emotionally freaking out about this thing that's stuck in their hand and/or being the Only One who can solve this.
  • The aftermath of Haven, especially if they take a bit longer to recover (or even to regain consciousness).
  • Pushing themself too hard, especially right after Haven.
  • The leadup to Trespasser when the anchor is getting worse and worse. Maybe their partner is the only one who knows, maybe their partner has to go off to do other stuff while they wrap up Inquisition things so they're alone with it, maybe the Inquisitor is hiding it.
  • During Trespasser when the anchor starts going crazy, especially if they were hiding it.
  • The aftermath of the Inquisitor losing their arm. Whether they're emotionally devastated about it or a little relieved because at least they're alive and not in pain.
  • Dagna making them a prosthetic and them having to get used to it, especially if it isn't a perfect usable hand but something to aid in holding things or specifically shaped to work with their chosen weapon (though the perfect hand magical/mechanical hand thing could be really cool too).
  • Them pretending to be over the loss of their arm much faster than they actual are because they don't want everyone worrying so much.
  • A mission after the game after they've got the prosthetic where it's damaged and panic over that.
  • Them over-preparing or internally panicking a little when they have to do something out in the wilderness somewhere cold, because they're still not mentally entirely over that walk through the blizzard after Haven.
  • For Lavellan I'm fine with anything from the delicate mage archetype to the "pretty but obviously not someone you'd want to mess with and probably eats bugs" woodsy archetype. I've played a lot of different classes for all of them so go with whatever class you like most or that fits for what you're trying to tell <3

Cullen Rutherford/Male Trevelyan (hurt Trevelyan)
  • See top of this section for all-Inquisitor prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Mage Trevelyan and Cullen both having emotional issues with each other due to their pasts, especially if Trevelyan gets hurt or sick early on and is struggling with having to trust a Templar.
  • Cullen not realizing how fond of Trevelyan he's become until they think they've lost him at Haven and then Trevelyan comes stumbling out of a blizzard right into Cullen's arms.
  • Trevelyan hiding stress or injuries after he finds out about Cullen quitting Lyrium because he doesn't want to add more stress/pressure to Cullen.

Dorian/Male Lavellan (hurt Lavellan)
See other request for more prompts
  • See top of this section for all-Inquisitor prompts (which is most of this request)
  • During the quest where they've traveled forward in time, Lavellan emotionally breaking down a bit over what happened to people he's friends with, feeling guilty over not being there to stop it, not being sure if they'll actually be able to get back or if they just have to go from this point forward, and snapping a Dorian a lot for seemingly not seeming to take it as seriously.
  • After they're in a relationship, Lavellan getting a cold and lots of cuddles and bitching and Dorian vocally being grossed out but mostly just being a combo of thrilled to be wanted/needed and worried at how easily Lavellan got sick.
  • Dorian worrying like hell after Haven but not feeling like he has the right to be one of the people crowding around Lavellan until he's for some reason put on fuss-over-the-Herald duty (maybe because he's a mage who can cast whatever they need, maybe because he's not Chantry and one of the advisors realizes that Lavellan won't want to deal with all the Chantry stuff right after waking up).

Iron Bull/Male Trevelyan (hurt Trevelyan)
The prompts in the other Bull/Trevelyan section are hurt Bull but here's a link for reference.
  • See top of this section for all-Inquisitor prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Trevelyan being embarrassed about being sick and not wanting to see anyone but Bull, but not vocalizing that. Maybe because he doesn't want to be bratty, maybe for some other reason.
  • Bull taking the whole bodyguard thing more and more seriously as Trevelyan keeps getting injured anyways.
  • Bull being secretly relieved about the anchor being gone and the guilt with that as he helps Trevelyan deal with the loss of a limb and making a prosthetic.
  • Training after the arm loss to adjust how Trevelyan is going to fight now, with and without the prosthetic, and Trevelyan getting super frustrated at how long it's taking him.
  • The Chargers trying to matchmake and coming up with reasons why it should absolutely be Bull helping out with whatever-it-is, or making sure that Bull comes across Trevelyan when he's trying to emotionally work through things that have happened.

Male Hawke/Male Lavellan (hurt Lavellan)
The prompts in the other Hawke/Lavellan section are Hawke hurt ones but here's a link for reference.
  • See top of this section for all-Inquisitor prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Taking Lavellan back to Kirkwall after Trespasser, especially if Lavellan had been reluctant when Varric brought it up earlier and they realize it was because Lavellan was trying not to let them know about the whole dying thing.
  • Hawke being Hawke about things and Lavellan leaning into that because it's way easier to deal with than the stress of everything else, especially if Hawke realizes that at some point (or Varric tells him) and plays it up deliberately.
  • (I also ship Hawke/Lavellan/Varric but I didn't have room to nominate that and prioritized the separate versions, just wanted to mention it as an option)

Cassandra Pentaghast/Female Lavellan (hurt Lavellan)
  • See top of this section for all-Inquisitor prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Cassandra trying really hard to learn Dalish remedies or traditions for injury recovery to help Lavellan feel less Other.
  • Cassandra mentally freaking out every time Lavellan almost dies and trying to be more and more Right There, and then she has to turn away for a second and guess who almost died again or caught a cold or went poking at something dangerous in the ruins.
  • Lavellan going to Cassandra for advice on dealing with Chantry people or highborn people and... Cassandra tries.

Female Adaar/Cassandra Pentaghast (hurt Adaar)
See other section for more prompts
  • See top of this section for all-Inquisitor prompts (which is most of this request)
  • The two of them being really bad at emotional situations, especially emotional situations where someone is hurt, and floundering on how to deal with it in a way that doesn't involve punching.
  • Alternatively, they might not know how to deal with things from personal experience but Cassandra has Read Books About This and she's gonna awkwardly try to use them as a guideline.
  • Adaar being really flirty and charmed by Cassandra panicking over her injury, especially if she's seriously injured.
  • Arguments about how recovered is recovered enough to go out and start hitting/shooting things again.

Dorian Pavus/Cullen Rutherford (Hurt Cullen)
  • Dorian finding out about the lyrium withdraw, and on one hand yes it's necessary on the other holy shit is that dangerous. Cue lots of fluttering around and trying to take care of Cullen while pretending that he totally isn't doing that. Especially if it's pre-relationship. Especially especially if Dorian isn't supposed to know about it (which could lead to all sorts of emotional arguments).
  • Dorian asking Cullen for help with a Venatori thing and then Cullen gets injured and Dorian is feeling terribly guilty even though it really isn't his fault.
  • Cullen doing something dumb to protect Dorian because he's smitten and somehow not getting called out on it because everyone knows him as the completely steady and reliable Commander. Maybe Dorian falls for it too and assumes he must have made a mistake that Cullen got injured correcting for and feels guilty, or maybe he knows he wasn't in any more danger than normal and starts putting that situation together with other things that have happened and has to figure out what to do with that information and if he's even making the right assumptions.
  • The Inquisitor is out somewhere without either of them and a thing happens that has to be dealt with right then, cue them going on a mission together and any combination of the freeforms kicking in.

Dorian/Male Hawke (hurt Hawke)
  • I normally play Purple Hawke so that's where my head is at with these, but I'm totally happy with other Hawkes too so feel free to adjust the prompts as needed for those.
  • Hawke using the focused attention as an excuse to flirt outrageously. Especially if it's pre-relationship and Hawke is playing it off as a joke but some real emotions slip in there on accident.
  • They have explicitly casual sex that they are both definitely on board with being totally casual (that's a lie, they're emotional disasters). And then they're both so distracted by being Casual the next time they go out on a mission that Hawke ends up injured.
  • Them getting into friendly arguments and generally screwing around during a mission, distracting Hawke enough that he gets hurt. Or maybe just flirting into a mission that was way more intense than they were expecting and dealing with the aftermath of that.
  • Hawke trying to show off and getting hurt. Or Dorian trying to show off and Hawke jumping in to protect him from a blow.
  • Dorian using an injury as a chance to critique Hawke's armor, and Hawke being miffed because his armor is perfectly fine thank you and at least he has a whole shirt on.
  • Any combination of the freeforms because really these two dorks are perfect for like all of them.

Dorian/Male Lavellan (hurt Lavellan)
See other section for more prompts
  • Lavellan getting injured in the middle of an argument and they just keep right on with it through all the fussing/healing.
  • Lavellan not trusting Dorian early on in the game and being super tense while Dorian has to help him with an injury, and Dorian acting out to cover how hurt he is by that.
  • Lavellan jumping in front of a blow meant for Dorian, especially if it's in the "are we flirting or arguing neither of us can tell" phase of a relationship. Or just while they're both still being so circumspect about flirting that the other one can't tell if they actually meant it, if you prefer them to have a softer start to their relationship.
  • The two of them getting trapped somewhere in close space and having to have a lot of contact both to patch up however Lavellan was injured and to keep him comfortable while they wait for the others to get them out. Especially if Lavellan is protesting that the injury isn't that bad but Dorian is really worried.

Female Adaar/Cassandra Pentaghast (hurt Adaar)
See other section for more prompts
  • Adaar instinctively being too used to fights going a certain way and expecting people to respond a certain way because that's how her merc group did it... and then she does a thing without thinking and everyone else does not act how she was expecting and she gets injured.
  • Cass not being okay with Mage!Adaar's "wrap a half clean rag around it and heal it when they've got the time" approach to caring for her own wounds. Especially if she keeps pushing it and pushing it because she knows she can stop her own wounds from getting infected so it feels way more important to quickly heal everyone else's scrapes than her technically much worse wound.
  • Them teaching each other field dressing traditions via actual wound treatment.
  • Early on, Mage!Adaar being kind of freaked out after hearing about what Cass can do to a mage who recently drank lyrium, so either forgoing lyrium to her detriment or overdoing it to prove that she's Not Scared.

Female Hawke/Cassandra Pentaghast (hurt Cassandra)
  • I normally play Purple Hawke so that's where my head is at with these, but I'm totally happy with other Hawkes too so feel free to adjust the prompts as needed for those.
  • Hawke being super worried but flirting ridiculously to cover it up.
  • Cassandra being heavily injured and Hawke acting more and more of a loon to try to keep her awake and responding until either Hawke can heal her or until she can get her to a healer.
  • Cassandra jumping in to save Hawke from something, and Hawke and Varric having a whole nonverbal conversation (via expressions or gestures or miming where Cassandra can't see or something) about it while Hawke is patching Cassandra up.
  • Cassandra trying desperately not to let it slip how starry eyed she is at Hawke while Hawke patches her up, especially if she's a little bit out of it from whatever blow she took. She's a Seeker and the Right Hand she isn't fangirling (she is).

Female Hawke/Fenris/Isabela (hurt Hawke)
  • I normally play Purple Hawke so that's where my head is at with these, but I'm totally happy with other Hawkes too so feel free to adjust the prompts as needed for those.
  • Hawke using the focused attention as an excuse to flirt outrageously. Especially if it's pre-relationship and Hawke is playing it off as a joke but some real emotions slip in there on accident.
  • This is one of those where I just wave my hands wildly at the freeforms and point at Hawke because really. There's so many places in canon or after canon or in the unsaid stuff in between canon where it could fit.

Male Hawke/Cullen Rutherford (hurt Hawke)
  • I normally play Purple Hawke so that's where my head is at with these, but I'm totally happy with other Hawkes too so feel free to adjust the prompts as needed for those.
  • Hawke using the focused attention as an excuse to flirt outrageously. Maybe it's pre-relationship and Hawke is playing it off as a joke but some real emotions slip in there on accident.
  • Hawke being either more or less careful about his own safety due to the whole Templar thing, especially if he's either trying to distract Cullen from someone else, or he's fighting in a way he normally wouldn't since he can't use magic right now.
  • Mage!Hawke deciding that the best way to keep Cullen from suspecting him of being a mage is to invite Cullen along on a mission where Hawke totally doesn't use any magic (for any level of invite, including inviting himself along on one of Cullen's missions). Then he gets injured due to not having shields up and is trying to keep himself alive long enough to get back. Or maybe he waits until Cullen is distracted clearing up and tries to heal himself a little and has to pretend to still be seriously injured. And then panic about whether or not Cullen noticed. Maybe Cullen has known for months or years now, he's just got about fifty reasons why he'd rather keep Hawke outside the gallows and just keeps an eye on him.
  • Non-mage!Hawke distracting Cullen away from somewhere his mage friends are at by being super annoying and dragging Cullen along on a mission and ending up injured.
  • Inquisition era flirting where Mage!Hawke is showing off their magic because they can now and either ends up injured or magically exhausted somehow. Maybe he was halfway through a showy thing and things suddenly got real and the switch to his normal battle magic "pulled" something? Or maybe he was just low on energy from all the showing off and overdid it.
  • Inquisition era Mage!Hawke not being used to having access to Lyrium and either avoiding it entirely or overdoing it in the field. Cullen having to deal with the aftermath of that (whether it's lecturing Hawke on eschewing a resource and getting himself injured because of the lack of injury, or recognizing the signs of overuse in a mage and pulling Hawke aside to say something), and maybe Hawke noticing that Cullen seems a lot less steady on this subject in particular.

Male Hawke/Male Lavellan (hurt Hawke)
The prompts in the other Hawke/Lavellan section are Lavellan hurt ones but here's a link for reference.
  • I normally play Purple Hawke so that's where my head is at with these, but I'm totally happy with other Hawkes too so feel free to adjust the prompts as needed for those.
  • Hawke using the focused attention as an excuse to flirt outrageously. Especially if it's pre-relationship and Hawke is playing it off as a joke but some real emotions slip in there on accident.
  • Hawke getting injured blocking a blow from Lavellan, and each of them being sure that they were showing off and caused the injury and being mad at themself.
  • Lavellan sitting on a much larger Hawke to keep him still while Lavellan dresses his wounds, and that backfiring considerably with either a very flirty Hawke or a Hawke who's trying not to flirt but gets aroused anyways.
  • Lavellan avoiding Hawke because he hasn't read (or can't read) the book and it's super stressful to have everyone expecting him to already know all these things on top of Everything Else he's trying to deal with. Then Hawke either thinking Lavellan doesn't like him or that he's shy, and getting injured doing something stupid or dangerous to try to win him over.
  • (I also ship Hawke/Lavellan/Varric but I didn't have room to nominate that and prioritized the separate versions, just wanted to mention it as an option)

Iron Bull/Male Trevelyan (hurt Bull)
The prompts in the other Bull/Trevelyan section are hurt Bull but here's a link for reference.
  • Bull getting injured protecting Trevelyan and just shrugging it off. Maybe it actually isn't that bad and only needs surface healing and the fussing and the worry is just kinda cute. Or maybe Bull is bullshitting because they can't afford to stop right then and later on Trevelyan catches the Chargers helping him out and is Not Pleased about the injury hiding.
  • No dead Chargers please (I count it as being part of my no player choice deaths DNW but wanted to emphasize it here since this is the hurt Bull section and that would hurt Bull a lot).
  • Bull getting more seriously injured by the "assassin" after he leaves the Qun, or the blade being poisoned.
  • Any of the demons they have to deal with, and Bull not coping well with the constant demonic barrage. Especially after something like the Envy demon or the Nightmare demon's territory.

Male Hawke/Varric Tethras (hurt Hawke)
  • This is basically Friendship/Trust/Loyalty Kink The Ship for me so anything with that.
  • I normally play Purple Hawke so that's where my head is at with these, but I'm totally happy with other Hawkes too so feel free to adjust the prompts as needed for those (or just go with something in the theme I just want these two being cute and trusting each other and worrying about each other and getting each other really).
  • Bethany & Carver are an exception to my "no either/or deaths" dnw because that isn't really a choice, so angst over their canon fates is totally fine for this (or just have them both alive that's great too)
  • I somehow didn't choose survivor's guilt as a tag for this because I'm dumb but that especially for Hawke in this pairing.
  • Any of the five million points in canon where Hawke is either coming out of a fight that should have seriously injured them, coming out of a terrifying situation, mage Hawke coming out of a Templar situation, Hawke not dealing well with an emotionally tough situation, ect.
  • Emotional H/C after they meet back up in Inquisition. Maybe Hawke has never really truely been on their own before (they've always had family or close friends around) and suddenly he's had to go who knows how many months while dealing with guilt over the whole situation and his best friend/partner being kidnapped and not being able to keep tabs on all his important people and now there's a giant hole in the sky and it would be easy for Hawke to blame it on himself.
  • Hawke blaming himself for things happening or for not somehow predicting and preventing them.
  • Varric blaming himself for something and Hawke trying to comfort him by taking the blame for it.
  • Hawke getting injured in the first deep road's trip and comforting a Varric who's emotionally Not Doing Great.
  • Hawke being very upbeat around everyone else, and then letting the act go once he and Varric are alone. (whether just on a normal day, in response to an injury, or in response to an emotional trauma)
  • The two of them bantering back and forth while Hawke is seriously injured because it makes the both of them feel better.
  • Varric keeping an eye on an injured Hawke and making him follow the healer's recovery instructions when Hawke tries to cut corners.
  • Hawke hiding an injury or emotional issue from everyone else but telling Varric about it.
  • Mage!Hawke hiding an injury from everyone else but asking Varric to help him out with healing it. Maybe it's in an embarrassing spot (only if they both find it funny), maybe he just can't deal with Anders today, maybe he still doesn't trust the Inquisition, maybe he just can't with interacting with anyone right then, or maybe it's all just an excuse for flirting with Varric.
  • (I also ship Hawke/Lavellan/Varric but I didn't have room to nominate that and prioritized the separate versions, just wanted to mention it as an option)

Prompts for Robin in Any Pairing
  • Robin's amnesia coming up in more emotional ways than just how it effects the plot. Either with Robin themself not being sure what their motivations would be if they had their memory, or feeling left out of basic interactions because they have no cultural or emotional connection to a lot of the small things that could come up, or trying to figure out what their background might possibly be as they start to get hints about it (who their father is, that they ran away and roughly when, the weird way Validar was able to magically talk to them, their "twin" with the same name, ect)
  • Since Robin still has their instincts completely fine, something unexpectedly putting them in a real bad mental space (anything from just being super shaken to a full on panic attack) without them having any context for the reaction or being able to explain it. Maybe it's something that makes sense to be afraid of, like certain types of enemies, or maybe it's something a lot more innocuous like a certain fabric pattern or phrasing.
  • Robin kind of freaking out a little bit once they get time to breath after setting fire to the fleet, because it was necessary and there was no other way for them to survive it, but they still killed a lot of people. Maybe once they find out the truth about Grima it coming up again, because while Robin might not be trying to destroy the world they sure do have a pretty massive death count from trying to save it.
  • Trying to deal with the possibility of losing control to Validar and the behind the scenes stuff we didn't get to see with Robin, Chrom, Flavia, and Basilio planning for that eventuality. For the other pairings, Robin not being able to tell them exactly what they're upset about because talking about it could literally doom them all.
  • After Lucina's judgement, preferably with a Robin who accepts it. Especially if they sort of think they must deserve it for killing Chrom in Lucina's version of the world. The aftermath of that, with Robin having not been sure if Lucina would kill them or not and feeling both guilty and betrayed about the whole thing, but not wanting to really let loose and tell anyone because they know their partner would not take it well and they don't want anyone to hate Lucina over it.
  • Insecurity and Imposter Syndrome, either before anyone knows anything about them and they aren't proven or friends enough with people to be willing to risk leaning on them, or after they start to find out about their background, or after a loss on the battlefield (or even a win that lost more people than they were willing to).
  • After the endgame, coming back and everyone dealing with the emotional fallout. Especially since their friends and partner have been both grieving and searching for them that whole time, and Robin might be mentally just out of a pretty nasty fight that they've all had time to recover from.
  • (I forgot to include the tag about responding to finding out someone would or wouldn't be willing to sacrifice you for the greater good but I really should have. Would sacrifice them for Lucina. Wouldn't sacrifice them for Chrom)

Chrom/Male Robin (hurt Robin)
  • See top of this section for general Robin prompts (which is most of this request)
  • I know Lucina is tricky for this but I do not want her to be born normally if you're doing something set after she's supposed to be born. Maybe she gets magicked into existence, or maybe in her version of their world Robin is female and she straight up isn't born into this one, or maybe Emmeryn is alive in this and this world's version is somehow Chrom's niece. Or maybe just avoid the whole thing by not mentioning baby Lucina at all as long as there's no implying that Chrom has a wife or kid back at the castle. (I'd rather not go the mpreg route for this exchange because that's what Unusual Bearings is for and I've got a whole set of prompts for them over there safely wrapped in my mpreg wants and dnws)
  • Robin wanting to lean emotionally on Chrom early in the game because he's the only thing that's familiar, but realizing that the whole situation is super weird and that Chrom clearly doesn't know him, so he tries to keep at a distance instead telling himself that it's clearly the more responsible thing to do.

Cordelia/Female Robin (hurt Robin)
  • See top of this section for general Robin prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Robin being super blushy and awkward when Cordelia has to tend her injuries at some point, and Cordelia being so focused on keeping Robin stable until a healer gets there that she doesn't even put the clues together until later.

Flavia/Female Robin (hurt Robin)
  • See top of this section for general Robin prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Flavia going all in like she does in her supports (except she's actually flirting obviously) and getting super overprotective when Robin gets injured even before Robin realizes she's serious about it. Maybe well before you get her as a companion in the game because she goes into "Mine" mode from the getgo.

Gaius/Male Robin (hurt Robin)
  • See top of this section for general Robin prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Especially with the unexpected triggers prompt for him, because out of everyone in these prompts he seems the most likely to have encountered that before and have some idea of why Robin might be responding so surprisingly negatively to something otherwise innocuous.

Inigo/Male Robin (hurt Robin)
  • See top of this section for general Robin prompts (which is most of this request)
  • Inigo being very bad at this whole comforting someone thing. Especially if it's emotional. Especially if Robin is just not in the mood for any shenanigans or jokes and completely misinterprets what Inigo is trying to do.

Note on expansions:
  • I've only played up through KOTET (I may have had a sulk about being forced to choose a side again) but I will have played all the way through the most recent stuff by the time fic for this is revealed. If there's anything from those that really really fits (or completely josses) anything I've prompted here, then feel free to adjust stuff to write it. I know Theron especially has a major arc.

General Consular Prompts/Rambling:
  • This section is basically just me waving my hands around frantically trying to convince everyone else that the Consular is The Best Woobie. Some of it is sort of headcanony and some is just me throwing out ideas, so don't feel like you have to match any or all of this if your personal take is different.
  • Preferably no "oh no relationships lead to the dark side" type emotional issues, since the Consular doesn't seem to be at all fussed in canon and is open about it with the rest of the Jedi in one of the romances (I haven't played the other so I'm not sure if it's the case in both).
  • Their Act 1 ability is my everything. If you haven't played it or haven't for awhile, essentially they learn a shielding technique that uses their life force as an energy source to cast mindshields. They only successfully use it in game against a specific force plague/ghost, but it's mentioned a few times in their other Acts and talked about like it'll work against any force influence so that's what I tend to go with. Every time he shields someone it visibly exhausts him and they make it very clear that using it too many times will kill him.
  • Imposter Syndrome and the Consular feeling incredibly out of his depth because he was promoted so ridiculously fast in Act 1. Him knowing objectively that he earned it and proved himself through his actions in those situations but emotionally feeling like he was faking it the whole way through.
  • The effects of completely skipping field training and not having any guidance on emotionally dealing with the effects of battle and killing people, especially if he's mainly a healer.
  • The sort of non-violent nerdy kid who would be chosen as a padawan by the kooky researcher getting thrown straight into emergency after emergency instead.
  • Maybe he never had close friends or maybe he grew apart from them since their experiences and rank kept getting further and further away, and issues with both loneliness and trying to ignore it because Jedi Logic. Especially if he's working with a lot of people and respected and doesn't feel like he has any right to complain about not having friends.
  • Or maybe he did manage to keep a lot of friendships and during the events of the Alliance he's got no clue where they are or if they're alive. Him trying to be a pillar for the rest of the Jedi who show up since he's the only council member available and not having someone to lean on himself because of that.
  • Feeling obligated to use the shielding technique as much as he can when it's relevant, because he's the only person who can use it now.
  • Not dealing well emotionally with having to decide who to save in situations with a lot of people getting possessed, because he knows trying to shield as many as possible will kill him and be worse in the long run but in practice it's hard to leave someone vulnerable.
  • Getting real good at casually dealing with the lingering effects of his life force getting too low or residual effects from getting stabbed at the end of KOTFE or some other force/physical injury.
  • Long term effects being no big deal to him (just something he has to adjust to deal with), but the other person finds out about it and it's a big deal to them. Someone forcing the Consular to actually explain in detail what the fuck, and everyone going into panic mode afterwards. Especially if they can't actually fix anything and it's right back to how the Consular was dealing with it before except with more emotional trauma to the rest of them.
  • Using meditation as a one stop bandaid for every emotional issue and that just leading to bottling things up.
  • Being what he thinks is entirely stable with life force to spare, but it comes up somehow and the other person vehemently disagrees with what an acceptable life force level looks like.
  • Not being able to even try to shield himself from Valkorian. Stress about both that inability, and about how safe it is to cast shields on others with Valkorian attached to him.
  • Valkorian having a fit about him "wasting his life force" on other people and trying to stop him from shielding someone, resulting in him injuring himself or using way more life force than he'd intended.
  • (Lana and her fussing is my fav so if she's also your fav feel free to have her involved as much as you'd like as long as it doesn't completely overshadow the ships)

Theron/Male Jedi Consular (hurt Consular)
  • Everything in the general Consular part above
  • Vitiate snapping mindshields the Consular cast at the end of Ziost (especially if he thought they were able to hold against Vitiate earlier on the planet) and the potential force backlash from that hitting the Consular. Also the Consular being upset at himself for just assuming the shields would continue to work against someone as powerful as Vitiate and not taking more measures to protect people that he had assumed were safe.
  • The Consular wanting to shield Theron's mind and them having an argument about it (since Theron knows he can deflect mind reading/manipulation by himself), and the whole life force thing coming out while the Consular is trying to explain what makes these particular shields so ridiculously strong.
  • The Consular still being injured when they meet up on Odessen. Him trying to push too hard too fast or using too much energy to accelerate his healing and Theron ending up being the one to argue with him about it, or straight up h/c for any of the lingering effects from getting stabbed straight through with a lightsaber and living, or arguments about Lana because Theron wasn't there but she was and he still doesn't trust her.
  • Theron's background making things real complicated for him as he starts to develop feelings for a Jedi, and the Consular being really confused about why he's acting like that.
  • One of them pulling back a bit once they realize they've gone and caught feelings, and the other misinterpreting why they did that. Or both of them having those realizations and misinterpretations around the same time and generally both being bad at emotions.
  • The Consular getting hurt sometime on Yavin or Rishi, especially if it's after Theron's capture and Theron's especially worried about anything like that happening. Maybe it takes them a bit to find the Consular and Theron is on a knife's edge with stressing about the Consular's safety and not trusting Lana.
  • The Consular shielding a few people on Yavin and Theron noticing how it physically affects him every time he shields someone. Especially if Theron doesn't realize the Consular is using life force at first.
  • The Consular getting injured on a mission and Theron having to take care of him, either because something is making it so the Consular can't just heal himself with the force or because he's too exhausted to do so.

Arcann/Male Jedi Consular (hurt Consular)
See other section for more prompts
  • Everything in the general Consular part above
  • Them taking a bit longer to trust each other than they do in Canon, even after they start working together. The Consular trying real hard to be all Jedi about it but it being kind of hard considering everything Arcann has done (Especially what he's done to the Consular and people the Consular cares about, and the Consular feeling guilty about giving that greater emotional weight than larger tragedies.)
  • Senya trying to push them to work together and it ends up with the Consular getting injured and Arcann having to take care of him until they get back to the Alliance.
  • Slight AU where instead of deciding to work together, they end up being forced into it and something happens to the Consular. Or his normal "my life force is low but I'm fine" coping methods aren't working as well in this situation or aren't fooling Arcann as well as they fool normal people because he's watching the Consular super closely looking for signs of his dad.
  • The Consular finally snapping at Arcann a little when Arcann makes some comment about his dad, because if anyone is upset about the Sith Emperor being attached to his mind it's the Barsen'thor.
  • The Consular still having issues physically from Arcann stabbing him and Arcann now having to deal with that directly.
  • Some unrelated injury resulting in shirt off for the Consular and Arcann seeing the scar he left, especially if he'd half convinced himself that his strike must have been off or something for the Consular to survive it.
  • The Consular pushing harder and harder and people already in the Alliance not realizing just how much he's working because it's increased slowly and they're used to it, but to Arcann coming in late it seems crazy and he can see the signs of it wearing on him.

Arcann/Male Jedi Consular (hurt Consular)
See other section for more prompts
  • Them coming across each other again between Voss and the mission where Arcann canonically joins up, and the Consular ends up injured severely enough to need help or be unconscious. Arcann has to make a call and decides to save him, but he still really doesn't trust them even though he knows they aren't literally his father (yet).
  • Some other enemy forcing them to work together while Arcann is still emperor, especially if the Consular has to use his shielding technique for whatever reason and that's the "injury" he's dealing with. Especially if he has to use his shielding technique on Arcann.
  • Pre-KOTFE AU where Arcann and his brother are sent out to go after the Consular proactively instead of Valkorian having them attack unrelated people and waiting for the Consular to come to him. Maybe they get forced into working together, maybe when they're trying to catch him the Consular ends up injured and they're supposed to keep him alive and whoops it accidentally got shippy.

Lana Beniko/Female Smuggler (hurt Lana)
  • Anything in the spaces between Yavin and Ziost.
  • Maybe the smuggler is a much more involved person than Lana was expecting and she keeps having to avoid sending Sith to deal with her without it being obvious that she's avoiding it (or her saying it's because she's obviously capable of dealing with major emergencies and they might need her in the future). Maybe Lana just goes to 'deal with it' herself to try to figure out a solution that doesn't involve stabbing.
  • Before Manaan, the smuggler ending up somewhere she isn't supposed to be and trying to quicktalk her way out of it.
  • Them getting into an actual fight and the smuggler injuring Lana (either accidentally or on purpose) and just flinging all caution and sense to the wind to get Lana out of there because whoops turned out she was not okay with doing that.
  • Someone else injuring Lana and the Smuggler sneaking back to help her. Maybe Lana actually needs help, or maybe she's perfectly fine and has been patched up and the Smuggler popping up in her room with a stealth generator is "an entirely unnecessary risk".

Theron Shan/Male Imperial Agent (hurt Agent)
Theron Shan/Male Imperial Agent (hurt Theron)
  • The agent doing his own thing between Yavin and Ziost and that own thing seems to mysteriously involve a lot of messing with Theron's missions. Maybe it's genuinely an accident, or maybe it's on purpose for some reason. And then one of them gets injured.
  • Either of them being sent after the other well before Yavin, because of something the other one did.
  • Theron investigating when the agent was "undercover" with the republic, especially if he catches on to the mind control and now he's got to make some very quick moral choices.

Theron Shan/Male Sith Inquisitor (hurt Inquisitor)
Theron Shan/Male Sith Inquisitor (hurt Theron)
  • Most of these are for between Yavin and ZIost, but something pre-Manaan or just Theron not dealing well with trusting an enemy after getting captured on Rishi is great too.
  • The Inquisitor totally not caring that they're on opposite sides again and injuring Theron and then suddenly realizing that whoops yup they do care.
  • Someone else on the Imperial side injuring Theron and the Inquisitor straight up executing them because fuck you who gave you the right.
  • Theron getting captured and a stealth based Inquisitor breaking in and stealing him back.
  • Any of these situations leading to Theron being in the room while Marr holocalls to try to figure out wtf the other Dark Lord is up to and the Inquisitor is like "I like this one go kill or torture another one there's plenty." and Marr is just... not wanting to deal with this and the Inquisitor is too useful and capable and influential for him to want to get into a fight over a single republic agent. Or maybe it's one of the other Dark Lords that calls him up and a whole lot of Sith Posturing and Politics ensues.
  • Theron having to break out to "escape" because the Inquisitor doesn't want to let him leave. Especially if the Inquisitor knows he has to and actually lets him, just wasn't willing to let him walk out. Especially especially if Theron is fully aware of this.
  • The Inquisitor getting injured (by Theron) and using it as a reason to taunt him. Maybe his feelings are secretly hurt and he's getting pretty mean to cover that up.
  • Theron trying to be gentle while patching the Inquisitor up and they are Not Having It because they aren't a delicate princess and don't need to be treated like one. Especially if they actually really like it but they can't say that.

Theron Shan/Male Sith Warrior (hurt Theron)
Theron Shan/Male Sith Warrior (hurt Warrior)
  • Most of these are for between Yavin and ZIost, but something pre-Manaan or just Theron not dealing well with trusting an enemy after getting captured on Rishi is great too.
  • Wrath going all pissed off 'that one is mine' after Theron gets injured in some conflict they're on opposite sides of in order to scare everyone on his side away from Theron.
  • Theron injures the Warrior and the Warrior decides to take it as flirting because it obviously wasn't an injury meant to kill. (Especially if it actually was meant to kill or seriously injure, and Theron was agonizing about pulling the trigger)
  • The Warrior just generally being really enthusiastically attracted to Theron, especially if he's loudly and embarrassingly flirtatious/lewd/complementary about Theron being strong and clever enough to potentially beat him.
  • Either of them getting injured in a conflict they're on opposite sides of, and Wrath deciding this means he gets to kidnap Theron for a bit.
  • A pre-Manaan conflict where the Warrior gets a bit fascinated by how ridiculously good Theron is at everything. Especially if he's already Wrath. Especially if he's blatantly flirting while either injured or patching Theron up (and letting Theron go because enemies are everywhere but rivals on this level of fun/challenge are a rare gift). Especially especially if when they meet up later on Manaan the Warrior is delighted and fully on board with working with Theron because he already knows how good he is from the other side (and has maybe sustained injuries from it and is thrilled to tell Lana all about it).
  • Post-Manaan injury care, especially if paired with some part of the above prompt.
  • That casual sense of Wrath being able to totally wreck Theron if he wanted to and Theron not being sure how much of the aura of unpredictability the Warrior tries to put out is actually true and how safe he may or may not be.
  • The Warrior getting majorly injured and being surprisingly cool and collected through it, or even enjoying the pain.
  • I don't really want any hard dubcon if you decide to go a sexual way, but I'm fine with there being that unspoken sort of threat with the Warrior being a very powerful and maybe very unpredictable person, as long as Theron does want to be in the situation.
  • (I didn't choose nearly enough happy freeforms for the Warrior hurt versions of this one but that's my fault for writing the letter late. Luckily there's a couple general ones in there and some of the angstier ones still apply to Theron. Sorry about that! If you were wanting to go a more serious route with the Warrior's personality I promise I'll enjoy that too!)
  • (If you include Jaesa please either LS Jaesa or have her be a DS with her original personality please. Not crazybrokenDS!Jaesa)





Seriously if you haven't played this game go play it before you read this it will ruin everything. I realize the constant spoiler warnings must be annoying if you don't care but I have never had so many emotions about people playing a game blind before this game. (Even if you don't like horror, just mod infinite ammo on pc and play it. Trust me. I hate horror and it took me three days to get through Psychotronics because I kept going two feet and quitting the game, but by the end of this game I was so immersed and the stakes had risen so much that I was full on sprinting through the last quests.
It's not the same game on the second playthrough at all and the whole thing is full of twists and clues as to what happened and what is happening and subplots and sideplots and it's just great. It's more like an atmospheric mystery/rpg in a horror setting.)

Notes:
  • Comforting someone stuck in a nightmare: I didn't mean this one literally (except for Morgan & The Typhon) so much as the situation having that nightmare feeling for Morgan, especially original Morgan trying to figure out wtf is going on and their personality having changed drastically in what feels like a day and all the side effects from the neuromods.
  • This whole section is more Emotional H/C than physical, so don't feel like Morgan has to be physically injured if it doesn't fit.
  • I tried to keep to gender neutral pronouns for the & sections so that you can use whichever gender Morgan you prefer, but I might have slipped into female ones so feel free to ignore those if I missed changing any back to they/them.
  • If it isn't specified, anything that takes place during the game could be either real Morgan and what actually happened or some version of simulation!Morgan.

Female Morgan Yu/Mikhaila Ilyushin (hurt Morgan)
  • Pre-game Morgan trying to figure out how to fit into their life on the station without any memories of it, without being able to tell anyone that their memories were completely wiped.
  • Guilt over what she's doing in Psychotronics. She can't tell Mikhaila what's going on because Classified but it's nice to be doted on and get that generalized comfort and reassurance that she's doing all this for a reason (especially if Mikhaila is unknowingly comforting Morgan over what happened to Mikhaila's dad).
  • The loops starting while Morgan is in a relationship with Mikhaila (with Morgan leaving notes for herself to clue herself into that), and she's trying to keep up the act the first couple of times she comes back blank, so she's stressing about something she can't explain to Mikhaila and Mikhaila is trying to comfort her anyways.
  • Mikhaila cornering her for a confrontation and realizing either that Morgan legit doesn't know who she is, or that Morgan's personality is way off what it should be.
  • Slight AU where Morgan confides in Mikhaila (because Mikhaila is someone Morgan knows old her trusted, wasn't involved, and that she has dirt on) after her personality has shifted enough that she's upset over what was going on in Psychotronics. And whatever Mikhaila does with that information.
  • Morgan during the events of the game freaking out over Alex and the effects of the neuromods and the general everything and Mikhaila comforting her. (preferably before the side quest where you find out what happens to Mikhaila's dad).

Female Morgan Yu/Sarah Elazar (hurt Morgan)
  • Slight (or major) AU where either Elazar follows up on her intentions to confront Alex about Morgan being an unwilling test subject in the loop phase, or part of her investigation is getting Morgan alone to talk with her and determine just how much her assumptions were correct (even if Morgan doesn't actually know).
  • At any point, Morgan developing a crush on Elazar as her personality shifts and Elazar not wanting to act on it for ethical reasons because she knows something is Wrong with Morgan (or maybe during the events of the game saying fuck it and going for it).
  • During the events of the game with the real Morgan, the two of them trading notes trying to figure out everything that was happening and Morgan struggling to deal with what seems from their perspective like a betrayal by Alex.
  • During the events of the game, comforting Morgan about the feedback they're getting from the Typhon or Morgan having a breakdown while in the safe area because it's the first time they've been able to breath since (from their perspective) leaving earth.
  • Morgan having issues sleeping because they keep thinking about how easy it would have been for a mimic to kill them while they were asleep in the fake apartment.
  • Morgan having issues being sure of reality because this all seems so unreal from their perspective and the Typhon mods are making things even fuzzier.
  • Morgan having very quickly adopted the habit of being very still and quiet to listen for mimics, and having to be calmed down because they aren't used to there being other people around making noise.

Morgan Yu & Alex Yu (both hurt)
  • Pre-game Morgan trusting Alex less and less, and Alex frantically trying to get his "real" sibling back.
  • Pre-game Morgan trying to confront Alex over what's going on in Pyschotronics.
  • Pre-game Alex trying to figure out what Morgan is up to and not being sure if he can even predict them anymore because their personality is so different.
  • Alex contacting real Morgan during the events of the game trying to talk them through things and just generally doing everything he can to keep them alive and moving.
  • Alex trying to predict what Original Morgan would have done and struggling with trying to be both them and himself in mental arguments about things to figure out what the actual compromise should be, because Morgan isn't Morgan anymore.
  • Morgan having a breakdown during one of the confrontations with Alex. Or Alex having the breakdown.
  • Morgan managing to get up to the escape pod (with no intention of leaving) trying to find Alex and just losing it when they realize it's just his tracker.

Morgan Yu & January (hurt Morgan)
  • Pre-game Morgan and January trying to piece the truth together, deal with Morgan's fractured personality, and decide what information to leave for a future even more damaged version of Morgan.
  • Morgan having breakdown in response to something, especially if they're in a really bad spot for it and January is trying to talk them through it or urge them to a safer area because Morgan's in a lot of danger.
  • Being really freaked out by the Nightmare or having trouble coming out of hiding after evading the Nightmare.
  • Managing to defeat the Nightmare and breaking down in relief but it's still too dangerous to let their guard down and only so long until it returns so January is trying to be their eyes and get them moving again.
  • Morgan trying to deal with the knowledge that they did terrible things, or that they're actually a different person now due to the personality drift, and January trying to emotionally stabilize them so that they can go back out and fix things.
  • Talking over things with January as they find clues as to what happened.
  • Morgan getting physically injured and January having to talk them through treatment or trying to keep them going long enough to direct them to a medical operator.
  • January comforting a Simulation!Morgan who isn't adjusting well and trying to guide them towards more human reactions without breaking the test.
  • A simultation!Morgan where the flashes of the truth you get from the Coral become much clearer much faster and January is trying to make it make sense within the simulation.

Morgan Yu & Typhon (hurt Morgan)
  • Kind of a reverse of the other prompts. All of these are for simulation!Morgan unless otherwise specified.
  • I'm not sure exactly how this would work since the impression I got was that the Typhon aren't normally sentient/sapient, but since they made the Nightmare out of fear of Morgan there's got to be some emotions and comprehension there.
  • A post-game Morgan after the bad end escaping and going back to the Typhon in a weird sort of "Comes Back Wrong" situation where they have an individuality and personality they aren't supposed to. The rest of the Typhon trying to calm them down and pull them back into the collective and however that could work out.
  • A mid-game Morgan in one of the 'failed' runs trying to merge back in with the rest of the Typhon while in the simulation.
  • A mid-game Morgan managing to reach out to the real Typhon through the Coral, possibly dooming the real Alex.
  • The Typhon reaching out to a simulation!Morgan and trying to pull them back to reality.
  • Slight AU with Real!Morgan connecting more and more with the Coral every time they encounter it (maybe just during the events of the game, maybe starting before the game, or maybe continuing onto whatever happened after the game if they escaped the station) and the Typhon start drawing them into the hivemind.




  • I'm pretty vanilla, so when in doubt assume it's probably too kinky to me (unless it fits in with the stuff below).
  • Light/soft BSDM (no insults, no punishments that are meant to hurt or humiliate, no spanking), bondage, wax play, pretending at knife play without actually breaking the skin, gentle breathplay, rough kisses, biting each other's lips, biting hard enough to leave teethmarks but not to bruise or break skin, gentle manhandling, size kink (for some pairings), gentle hair pulling, talking during sex
  • (Just to clarify, insults are okay in angry-sex, just not in a Dom/Sub situation.)
  • (You can get a little rougher or dubconnyish if you want as long as both characters are really into it and the person being roughed up encourages it or taunts it into happening. The big thing with me is the consent factor, so as long as it's very clear both characters consent and the kink is a version of something mentioned here that doesn't do any lasting harm, then it should be fine.)
  • Angry sex, or super soft and careful sex, or soft and careful sex with a character who can't deal with that emotionally but also doesn't want to stop, or one character starting angry sex that ends up being soft and wrecking them, or really really happy sex with lots of butterfly kisses and loving whispers. Basically if there are a lot of emotions I'm gonna like it.
  • Penetrative sex, Nonpenetrative sex, Intercrual, Makeouts... I'm not picky on what goes where as long as it doesn't hit a dnw.
  • One or both of them still having most of their clothes on.
  • Focus on skin contact. Blow jobs sort of fall under this for me but also just entirely normal contact like when someone they're pining for is gently holding their hand or arm or absentmindedly (or deliberately) stroking their skin or something and they're just so very aware of it. Or when they're leaning into someone and all the little touches that might come from that (Yes I realize how ridiculous it is to kink on handholding but touch is so great!)
  • Deliberately taking aphrodisiacs (with everyone in the ship aware and consent given ahead of time) as a way to lose control a bit.
  • Attempts at safe, sane and consensual... but can be poorly negotiated on all fronts or just straight up a bad idea but they're into it.
  • Arguments leading to sex.
  • Arguments leading to sex without actually stopping the argument.
  • Attempts at dirty talk leading to emotional conversations or outbursts that necessitate stopping the sex/foreplay/flirting (even if just for a moment).
  • One character gets on a tangent and tries to have a serious emotional conversation while in the middle of sex. Like, something is up someone's genitals level of middle of sex. The I-thought-we-were-sexing-not-emotioning character either trying to listen to them while very much focused on the arousal of the situation or trying to convince them that it's a for-later talk, while the emotional-convo character is both super turned on and super agitated every time they try to re-initiate sex instead of seriously talking.
  • Reemphasizing that above one specifically for m/m pairings I mean really just talking about their relationship or something while one of them is balls deep.
  • The same thing again except without the sex pausing and it turning into praise kink
  • Alternatively again both characters just being super sincerely into the conversation without stopping sex at all.
  • Character's guard goes down enough to mention things during sex that they're too embarrassed to talk about once they aren't turned on.
  • Pairings that are switches arguing about who is going to top/bottom this time and accidentally convincing themselves that they want to do the opposite position and now they've got to have the whole argument again the opposite way.
  • Someone going through something really rough, either emotionally or physically, and just really needing to be a pillow princess and get doted on this time.
  • One character going uncharacteristically quiet or something mid-sex and the other noticing and stopping to make sure they're alright (either leading to h/c or kink negotiation or something like that.). Maybe it doesn't even have anything to do with the sex but is something entirely different catching up to them at a bad time.
  • Having to keep quiet so their friends don't hear and being really bad at it.
  • Stuck in a small place and end up banging
  • Very very careful sex with an injured character.
  • Body worship of a character who got tied up expecting something very different and now they're super emotional about it.
  • Establishing a safeword then stopping when a character looks super distressed even if they haven't said the safeword.
  • Distressed character wanting to keep going anyways.
  • Character has been deliberately avoiding completely unrelated issues and something about the sex just triggers that breakdown and they're incredibly annoyed about it having to happen now and stopping sex they were enjoying up until they started crying and trying to get that across to a very concerned/panicked partner.
  • H/C leading to makeouts or sex.
  • The Comforter in a h/c situation stopping things from being sexual in that moment because they're worried the other person is too emotionally broken or physically injured at that time and then initiating a revisiting of the situation later when things seem more stable.
  • Taking care of a sex pollen/spell victim without doing anything sexual, then talking it over days or weeks later leads to dirty talk about what the comforter wished they could have done which leads to sex.
  • Top/Bottom Preferences: I honestly really like people switching? In these prompts there's a couple that I mostly prefer to top (Bull, the Sith Warrior), one that I very nebulously prefer to top most of the time I guess (Cullen), two that I mostly prefer to bottom (Robin and the Consular), and one that I sort of nebulously like to usually bottom but maybe they switch it up sometimes (M!Lavellan). The configuration of naughty bits is generally the least important part of smut for me so none of these are hard rules, just some soft preferences in case you wanted them.




  • Humiliation. Severe social ineptness. Planned public declarations of love (outbursts are fine). Embarrassing cultural misunderstandings .
  • Cheating. Suspicion of cheating that isn't immediately shot down. Open relationships or unrequested poly. Misunderstandings centered around thinking someone is in another relationship.
  • Noncon, fear of Noncon or focus on past Noncon. Unrequested Dubcon. Unrequested Sex Pollen. Ageplay. Underaged. Incest. Prostitution. Mentor/Mentee. Kissing after throwing up. Spanking. Sex with a sick character (it's fine if they're injured or magically ill, just not if they've got the flu or something). Rimming. Fisting. Sounding. A/B/O. Blowjobs after anal.
  • Unrequested non-canon background relationships. Fake Relationships. Crossovers. Modern AUs. Unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons. Character bashing (If you hate them please just leave them out). One half of the pairing trying to play matchmaker for the other half (unless it's one third of a threesome trying to matchmake the other two together).
  • Torture. Non-canon slavery. Non-canon permanent maiming/incapacitation. Character wasting away. Graphic description of wounds.
  • Non-canon permanent named character death. Canon character death resulting from a forced either/or choice.
  • Custom Names for Player Characters if default ones exist (For the ones I requested their default names are Garrett Hawke, Marian Hawke, Maxwell Trevelyan, Mahanon Lavellan, Ellana Lavellan, and Herah Adaar. I'm totally fine with varied personalities and don't want them to be blank slates, it's just the names that throw me off!)

(I was a little excited when I wrote this letter originally and may have written too much, so I tried to simplify it a little bit and I'll go back and pare it way down if the PH lingers too long. Thank you for picking it up for me whoever does! I'm one of those people who genuinely likes silly fluff just as much as plotty stuff so hopefully something in here will be easy <3)

Thank you so much for writing for me! <3 I tried to include a lot of prompts that could fit with a variety of lengths and ratings (which is a way of saying "I'm sorry I just threw everything out there and I ramble a lot when I'm excited"), feel free to use or ignore any of it! Most of the freeforms are basically prompts themselves so I didn't go too far into some of them but I'd love something focusing on any of them.

I'm combining any "x impregnates y" and "x/pregnant y" tags because I'm fine with either mid-pregnancy or conception fic for every pairing, including the solo ones. I tend to be really into the emotions and relationships of things no matter what the subject, so most of my prompts are more about that than the physical aspects.

Since I DNWed non-default names for Dragon Age and Fire Emblem, the defaults for characters I requested in DA are: Alim Surana, Darrian Tabris, Theron Mahariel, Garrett Hawke, Mahanon Lavellan, Kaaras Adaar, Maxwell Trevelyan

-I love anything from plotty fic to fluffy snippets.
-Weird magic. Seriously, emphasis on the weird magic, there's a reason most of my freeforms are like that.
-Mutual Pining
-Characters who were pining suddenly getting thrown into a relationship at light speed because of the pregnancy thing.
-All the complicated emotions involved if the characters have to deliberately cast a spell or something and have time to think about what they're doing, especially if it's impossible to warn the person who's going to get pregnant.
-Character's misinterpreting each other's internal turmoil over how the baby was formed.
-Possessiveness
-Courting mid pregnancy.
-Pregnant character worrying about not being able to do their job, insisting on doing their job anyways as much as they can.
-Anxiety. Panic attacks. Characters feeling inept. Imposter Syndrome.
-Pregnant character hiding the pregnancy thinking it's just a minor illness or afteraffect of a spell that they can deal with themselves.
-Competent pregnant characters getting to care for themselves and shutting down people who try to smother them or cross their boundaries.
-Upbeat or serene characters being too good at hiding panic and the resulting meltdown.
-Character realizing they're about to have a panic attack and trying to go off alone to deal with it but being found anyways and the resulting emotional h/c.
-Non-pregnant character(s) feeling helpless both for not being able to stop this from happening and for not being able to help their friend more now.
-Pregnant character being injured and getting upset at themselves for being slower/weaker, and having issues adjusting to their body/balance changing.
-Pre-pregnancy bad habits that no one wanted to address suddenly being something that needs to be talked about now that character is pregnant.
-Heavily pregnant character being barred from battle and ending up somewhere mostly out of danger with a ranged weapon or focusing on orchestrating tactics from behind the lines.
-Heavily pregnant character saying fuck it and wading into battle anyways (please no major injuries in this case).
-After battle arguments and emotional breakdowns.
-Pregnancy changing how a character's power works just enough to be super frustrating.
-Stress about a baby created by magic and how "normal" it'll be
-Friendship and the little ways that dynamics change when one person is pregnant in a stressful/dangerous situation

-Canon divergence, both large and small. Especially fix-it or someone not dying, but also little "this random odd thing in canon bugs me" type fixes.
-I enjoy non-standard formats (epistolary, notes to self, chatroom, outsider pov, Varric's exaggerated narration with flashbacks to what actually happened, a collection of related snippets, ect), so feel free to play around with that sort of thing if you want to!

General Likes for Robin:
-Overworking and bad self care
-Being bad at parsing his own emotions, imposter syndrome, inwardly freaking out over either things he knows but doesn't know why or things he doesn't know and feels like he should
-How his amnesia and complete lack of memory prior to this situation informs how he's going to deal with having a kid.
-The other half of the pairing trying to cast a healing spell to save Robin's life, but since they don't have any healing training it goes really really weirdly.
-Robin casting a healing spell he doesn't fully understand out of desperation to save the other half of the pairing's life.
-Getting ill or having side effects on missions and downplaying it
-It taking longer to identify the pregnancy because he thinks he's mildly injured in general and is trying to solve that without bothering/worrying anyone.
-It taking longer to identify the pregnancy because he knows something is wrong but it doesn't seem serious and he has five million things to do and he'll totally get to it as soon as he's done going over this strategy and reading this chapter and checking in with soandso...
-Postgame with a Robin who sacrificed himself and they don't realize he came back with an extra something (whether the ability or a baby) until it's here, and all the questions that raises about Morgan.


A Note On Side Pairings:
I know they're sort of unavoidable in this canon, especially since I love the time travel kids and like them around, but I'd rather not have everyone paired off neatly already.


Chrom/Pregnant Male Robin
-The two of them dancing around their emotions, or having agreed that a relationship was a bad idea, and then This Happens.
-Robin being especially stressed out due to class issues.
-An AU where Emmeryn is alive so Chrom doesn't have the baby pressure and had been planning on courting Robin. And then magical mpreg happens and either forces the issue  or accelerates things.
-They finally sort out their relationship enough to sleep together and whoops turns out Robin was cursed and now he's pregnant with Lucina.
-If the pregnancy happens after Lucina is forced to reveal herself, maybe it's what happened in her world but she either didn't know the details of how or doesn't want to risk telling them and changing how things go more than she already might have. Or maybe her world's Robin was female and she's been secretly freaking out and thinking that she and Morgan just aren't going to ever be born here so this is a huge relief and she's trying not to show that.
-Debating whether this means the same thing will eventually cause Morgan, or a completely different magical oopsy
-Miriel and/or Henry and/or Laurent quietly figuring out how to replicate this, then informing Robin so he knows that making Morgan won't involve whatever trauma caused Lucina.
-Family planning by the rest of the family and Robin trying to keep them from going too overboard too fast, especially if it's an Emmeryn lives thing so she and Phila are involved.
-The magical shenanigans resulting in Chrom and Robin both being pregnant.


Gaius/Pregnant Male Robin
-Gaius being super smug right up until he realizes that this could actually be dangerous for Robin.
-Gaius panicking because he really isn't ready for a baby and worrying about being worthy of Robin, or about Robin even liking him as a person much less as a partner.
-Alternatively, Gaius being surprisingly competent and ready to deal with this due to past experiences.
-Robin panicking because he was under the impression that Gaius wasn't as emotionally invested as he is (or not at all if they're still mutually pining) and he doesn't know how this changes thing or if it's a good thing that things are changing.
-Trying to court Robin properly and Robin being baffled by it all or thinking Gaius is still trying to "buy his silence" and brushing it off.
-For established relationship, Gaius getting real domestic preparing for the baby.


Gregor/Pregnant Male Robin
-I just like Gregor's general everything and think it could be super fun to see the way he reacts and jokes around after somehow managing to knock up a man.
-Gregor being super super sincerely enthusiastic
-Gregor going all in on the courting and doting and teasing.


Inigo/Pregnant Male Robin
-Inigo trying to be all confident and suave but mentally crying in the corner.
-Olivia being all about this weird time travel grandparent thing even if she's panicking a bit, especially if she still isn't with whoever Inigo's father is.
-A whole host of reactions from whoever Inigo's dad is. I mostly ship Olivia with Lon'qu or Gregor, but Chrom could be pretty fun too and I'm pretty open to most of the ships (except the characters that were specifically mentioned in my dnws)
-An AU where Inigo hasn't told Olivia or his dad that he's her child yet because she and his dad aren't together or because he just doesn't want to accidentally derail his own conception. Maybe Olivia suspects. Maybe he decides to tell them once Robin is knocked up, maybe he tries to bring her and his dad into things without actively telling them that they're his parents and they figure it out on their own, maybe Robin figures it out and tells them and there's a whole argument about that, maybe one of the more excitable time travel kids spills the beans on accident, ect.
-Inigo and Olivia trying to teach Morgan dancing or some of their culture now that they know, and Robin's complicated feelings about that since he still has none. (or if he does know where he's from at this point, complicated feelings about that).


Pregnant Male Robin & The Shepherds
-The Shepherds in general absolutely having a fit about Robin getting knocked up by some weird magic, whether he's their precious tactician who's gotten them safely through hundreds of battles or if he's the weird little amnesiac that they're just starting to rely on or he's newly returned from the dead.
-Domestic shenanigans.
-The back and forth between the characters who are more scientific about it, the pragmatic ones, the emotional ones, the ones who are incredibly worried, the ones who are worried but hiding it by being overly upbeat or active, or the ones who are legitimately thrilled about the impending baby and Robin being pregnant.
-The Sheherds trying to plan a baby shower together
-Morgan's reaction to all this.
-Them thinking Robin is sick or Robin trying to brush it off as nothing since he can't find anything actually wrong, until someone else suddenly realizes what's going on. (Miriel deciphers the curse? One of the more observant characters notices his reactions are off? One of the healers recognizes the signs or realizes he has two lifeforces? Panne notices his scent changing? Henry knew the whole time and casually spills the beans? One of the kids already knew this was going to happen and says so when they connect Robin's behavior with the date?)
-Robin realizes but doesn't tell anyone because he doesn't want to be coddled or prioritized or sent back to safety and things flinging into motion when the other characters realize this.
-Other male characters suddenly being really worried that this is a thing and other female characters having varying reactions to that.
-Miriel and/or Henry and/or Laurent quietly figuring out how to replicate this, then informing everyone and all the reactions to that.
-For this tag I'm open to an aro/aroace/ace Robin or a dmab genderfluid Robin, but would prefer it not to be the main focus.
-There can be a background pairing (Chrom, Vaike, Stahl, Sumia, Lon'qu, Maribelle, Gaius, Cordelia, Gregor, Olivia, Cherche, Henry, Gerome, Inigo, or Basilio in no particular order) or no pairing, but either way I'd like it to focus on the friendships and the way the group adjusts. If someone isn't in that pairing list please don't think it means I don't want them as a focus! I love all of them, I just don't ship all of them with Robin.
-For a non-shippy version Robin can either be entirely solo pregnant, or have to deal with the turmoil of being pregnant with a friend's kid (if it's a friend's kid then it isn't restricted to the above list, but is still restricted to the Shepherds/close allies.)
-I'd prefer not to have a focus on the dlc companions, especially the ones who were originally enemies.

Pregnant Chrom/Male Robin
-Frederick's reaction. I mean I realize this is a Chrom/Robin tag but imagine Frederick's reaction. He would drive Chrom absolutely insane.
-Lissa's reaction.
-Grief over Emmeryn not being able to meet baby Lucina.
-Robin maybe going a bit overboard on worrying about everything to do with this, especially if he's feeling guilty.
-Chrom trying to pretend like he isn't really freaked out.
-If Naga did it (maybe that fire had some side effects?), then complicated emotions because on one hand Naga on the other hand "Really?!".
-The rest of the Shepherds making jokes or assumptions.
-Vaike being a total shit about it to Chrom (and secretly kind of worried on like five different levels).
-Chrom working extra hard to keep up with his swordplay as his body changes and refusing to be benched.
-Political issues, especially if they (where a they needs to include Chrom) decide to hide Chrom and Robin away to let people assume that Robin is the one who got knocked up.
-Not being able to hide Chrom away because they're in the middle of a war and even when pregnant enough that it's starting to be visible he's still the best swordsman they have and the commander hiding away would be a massive morale blow.
-Lucina didn't realize this was how she was born but she's Here For It.
-Lucina did realize this was how she was born and she's been carefully keeping quiet and is both relieved it's finally known and guilty for not warning Chrom or Robin.
-Morgan being all about the magical shenanigans, asking pointed questions about how she's going to be born and if it'll be Robin next time.
-Robin and Chrom both being knocked up at the same time, with any/all of the prompts for either of them applying (Robin's are above).
-Chrom getting knocked up post-game after Robin returns and they've got no idea if this is just a thing now or if it's entirely unrelated (with all the Lucina-not-being-born-during-the-game panic that maybe have happened for her).
-Any other shenanigans from the freeforms

Note on expansions:
I hadn't played past KOTET when I originally wrote the letter (I have now, just cleaning the letter up a bit in a rush so not really adding anything!) so some of the prompts might be missing stuff or slightly off canon. Please feel free to add stuff from later expansions if you've got a good idea for it!


Pregnant Male Outlander & The Alliance
-They try to expel Valkorian from the Outlander's head and instead somehow impregnate him.
-Valkorian's back up plan involves impregnating the Outlander with himself (either via his genes or via the Outlander's partner's). Preferably not successfully (at least not with himself).
-Valkorian tries to initiate "Plan B is for Baby" once it's clear he's going to lose in the final fight of KOTET, but Vaylin intervenes and becomes the baby and all the chaos that would result from that.
-Valkorian lending his power to a normal person had some very unexpected side effects.
-The Outlander was already pregnant when he got frozen and now on top of everything else he's panicking about how that might have effected a baby he may or may not have known he had with a father that may or may not still be alive.
-Any of the stuff from the freeforms, including force shenanigans that don't involve Valkorian at all.
-I'd love for this one in specific to have a lot of focus on the side characters and their relationship with the Outlander instead of focusing on a pairing.
-If you'd rather them have a partner (or they need one for the mpreg trigger) there are way too many possible ships to list everything I'm okay with, so consider this carte blanch  to have any Male player character knocked up by any of the companions or close allies (except for the teacher/student mentor/mentee types which are still a direct DNW.) or people who would logically be involved with the Alliance. Please don't go deliberate crack with it, but if you've got a normally cracky rarepair that you take seriously that's fine! I have a lot of rarepairs that seem cracky at first glance and am easily sold on ships (especially if they're coming with an mpreg bow on them).


Vette/Pregnant Male Sith Warrior
-See "Outlander & The Alliance" above for prompts that apply to all player characters.
-I tend to perfer a warrior who's more neutral or DS but not mwhahaha type DS. If Jaesa's in it I prefer her to still be LS even with a DS warrior.
-For any smut, I love the size kink that can come with this relationship.
-The Warrior has to do a ritual that involves knocking someone up. Maybe he's very clear about the knocking himself up part, maybe he just assumes Vette realizes it and she actually realizes partially through the whole thing. (If it's pre-relationship then I'd rather it not be a sex based ritual)
-Sith marriage rituals that result in this.
-The Warrior rationalizing that it makes more sense for him to carry the baby because he has the force to keep internally stabilized (and is just generally almost impossible to kill) and she has medical training if anything goes really wrong.
-People noticing the oddity of The Wrath of the Empire being pregnant and very wisely saying nothing (to his face).
-People close to them noticing and trying to figure out how the hell to fuss over someone like the Warrior.
-The Warrior secretly liking being fussed over
-The Warrior not even considering doing anything different from normal up until right around the birth, if even then, and having to be Talked To by various trusted people (especially Lana if it's Alliance era)
-The Warrior spontaneously getting force pregnant after reuniting with Vette and them both "blaming" the other and/or generally a lot of teasing and domestic fluff.
-The Warrior pretending not to care if the kid is force sensitive or not and secretly wanting both at different times for different reasons and having a lot of private emotions about things.
-Vette freaking out about if she's the dad or the mom and if that matters and if she's ready to be a dad and how to raise a kid in both Twi'lek and Sith culture without the two being at odds.
-I don't want anything focusing on the either/or situation with Vette and Torian unless they both live. It's in my dnws but I thought I'd reemphasize it here.


Andronikos Revel/Pregnant Male Jedi Consular
-See "Outlander & The Alliance" above for prompts that apply to all player characters.
-Issues with the Consular's shielding technique, including him not being sure if he can use it anymore while pregnant because he doesn't know for sure if it'll take his life force or the baby's. Especially if it results in him having to explain the cost of the shields after having previously kept it a secret to avoid worrying anyone.
-If it's during the Alliance era, then the Consular doing a lot of careful meditation trying to figure out how dangerous it would be before trying to put a mindshield around the baby to shield it from Valkorian.
-I just generally love the "character has an amazingly overpowered protection ability but using it is either slowly killing them or could kill them if they overdo it" trope and the reactions that can come out of it and how those reactions would change for a pregnant character. We know it can block force based influences beyond the ghost it was created to combat so I wish it was used more considering all the mind control plots.
-If it's during Alliance era, amusement over how much the rest of the Council are going to Not Approve of the pirate and then sadness when either he realizes everyone is either dead or out of his reach and it's not like anyone is going to be analyzing his relationships anyways. (Except Lana. Lana has opinions.).
-Andronikos having adjustment issues once they figure out what's going on.
-Them teaming up on Tatooine and some weird stuff happens with an artifact or force ritual. I'd prefer if they didn't sleep together pre-pregnancy with this option (and that no one really accuses the Consular of doing so). Maybe the Consular lets him know about the force induced baby and Andronikos is unexpectedly insistent on being involved which leads to romance, or maybe the Consular assumes he wouldn't want to know and all the drama that could come of that later.
-Them having some issues because they're coming from such different backgrounds and perspectives and having to work past that.
-The Consular ending up in the same area as the Inquisitor's crew for some reason at a later point in the game (whether on the same side or opposite) and weird shit happening with baby shaped consequences.


Arcann/Pregnant Male Jedi Consular
-See "Outlander & The Alliance" above for prompts that apply to all player characters.
-The Consular specific stuff in the above prompt.
-Them being forced to work together on something as enemies and force shenanigans resulting in the pregnancy without Arcann knowing.
-Arcann having to rescue the Consular from something after Voss but before he's actually willing to trust the Consular, and either finding out about an earlier induced pregnancy or some sort of force shenanigans happening after/during the rescue.
-Them dealing with the fact that the rest of the Alliance has some very good reasons not to trust Arcann. And the Outlander and Arcann still not fully trusting each other. And Lana being just Not Happy about all this. And Senya just really wanting everything to go well and trying super hard.
-Pre-KOTFE AUs.


Felix Iresso/Pregnant Male Jedi Consular
-See "Outlander & The Alliance" above for prompts that apply to all player characters.
-The Consular specific stuff two prompts up.
-Them finding out about about the Consular being knocked up right before KOTFE kicks off and Felix having to deal extra grief from that, especially if the kid is born before they reunite. Or maybe his path goes differently when he's looking for a partner he knew was pregnant.
-Nadia being the most excited big-sister-figure ever.
-Them catching peaceful little domestic moments in the middle of massive disasters.
-This is not the weirdest thing Felix has dealt with and people being confused that neither he nor the Consular are more upset.


Andronikos Revel/Pregnant Male Sith Inquisitor
-See outlander shenanigans above for prompts that apply to all player characters.
-The Inquisitor needs to do some ritual that involves impregnating someone, and just decides that it's obviously going to be him because he says so.
-The Inquisitor being the most demanding-to-be-waited-on pregnant person ever right up until someone tries to keep him from doing what he wants in which case No.
-Showing up to Dark Council meetings heavily pregnant.
-Showing up to negotiations with the Republic heavily pregnant.
-Just, the Inquisitor has a few months with this thing being visible enough to be obvious and he is going to use it to mess with people.
-If it's Alliance Era, him being either just as much of a troll, or openly disappointed that he can't be as disruptive since he's trying to be a unifying figure.
-Alternative take on the forcewalker stuff, where he's got to reincarnate them to absorb their previous power. Or when a LS Inquisitor tries to release his ghosts it turns out there's only one way out. Or one force ghost wanting a very particular agreement in return for its power .
-The Inquisitor trying to bind one of those ghosts that are floating around Yavin and it goes... weirdly.
-Andronikos adjusting to all of this. Or not because by this point he'd have been through a lot of Inquisitor based shenanigans.
-Something happening on Tatooine and the Inquisitor being pregnant (and maybe a lot more worried than he'd be otherwise) with all Act 1 end to Act 2 everything nonsense going on.
-This being Zash's fault. Maybe she was supposed to be the baby all along, maybe she decided she didn't want to just kill the Inquisitor and they were supposed to become the baby.


Theron Shan/Pregnant Male Sith Inquisitor
-See outlander shenanigans above for prompts that apply to all player characters.
-All the Inquisitor stuff above (or at least the sort of gist)
-AU where they run into each other earlier and they've got a lot of talking to do once the Inquisitor recognizes him on Manaan.
-Theron's own issues complicating things for him.
-Satele realizing what's up (especially if it's Alliance Era) and having to decide how to deal with that.
-Them negotiating how this kid is going to be raised, because they're two very different people from very different cultures and the enemy thing is going to be a major issues with this sort of tie.
-Or maybe the Inquisitor just straight up doesn't tell him and Theron has to figure it out on his own.
-Alliance Era stuff where they get a lot of nice domestic not-stressed-about-being-enemies time that they both know isn't going to last.
-Nathema is its own prompt with this really.


Male Sith Warrior/Pregnant Theron Shan
-All of the Theron specific stuff from the last prompt.
-The Warrior being super possessive and how Theron deals with that.
-Something happening on Rishi or Yavin. Especially if the timeline is close enough that the KOTFE stuff kicks off before the kid is born and Wrath comes back to a five year old.
-The Warrior trying to get Theron to come with him after Yavin, at least for a little while.
-The Warrior tying to coddle Theron and Theron working around it.
-Revan finding out after capturing Theron, especially if he's the first one to find out.
-Alliance Era where the Warrior starts avoiding Theron because he's trying to keep Valkorian from finding out about the kid.

Cassandra Pentaghast/Pregnant Male Adaar
-I tend to play a Mage Adaar who's the chill type, but if you want to have the loud bruiser get pregnant that would also be amazing.
-I just love the idea of this hulking dude trying not to freak out over being pregnant and having to deal with those body changes and hormones.
-Cassandra is Prepared for This. Well, not this in specific, but she's had a lot of reasons to think about what she would do if she got a partner and wanted kids and how she would deal with balancing her job and fighting and pregnancy/child-rearing.
-Cassandra being super protective.
-Adaar insisting on fighting as long as possible and Cassandra panicking, especially if it was part of her personal plan for if she got knocked up and now she's dealing with it from the other side.
-I love archetypes where both characters are freaking out but trying to keep super calm so everything seems 100% chill and great and no problem up until it doesn't.
-If it's pre-relationship, then Cassandra using her giant arsenal of romance tropes. She has read this scenario (sort of) and she's got this.
-Alternatively, Adaar really ramping up the courting because now he's on a time limit. Or both of them trying to court the other at the same time and being really cute and awkward.
-All the super super everyone-else-is-rolling-their-eyes cutsey cliche baby things.


Pregnant Male Lavellan & The Inquisition
-Reactions to people treating him more delicately or femininely, especially if he's the whispy type who had already been trying to avoid that before (Or maybe he's not and it feels really out of left field when people suddenly start going that way).
-Any range of relationship with his clan, whether he doesn't miss them (and is maybe a bit guilty about it) to desperately desperately wanting his Keeper/clan around.
-Dalish traditions and blessings and customs and everyone's reaction to those, especially how they clash or can be merged with a very Andrastian Inquisition and how everyone else reacts or tries to help
-How pregnant people in combat situations is dealt with in Dalish clans, and how that might clash with the rest of the Inquisition. Especially if the Dalish tend to assume the pregnant person is going to be fighting/working like normal for as long as is feasible.
-If the father isn't an elf, the emotions involved in having a kid that isn't an elf. Or maybe Lavellan is fine with it immediately and it's other people who are worried and bringing it up.
-I'm totally happy with this staying solo (and would like it to stay focused on the gen relationships either way), but if you want to have a relationship in the background I ship him with Dorian, Hawke, Varric, Josie, Cullen, Cassandra, Solas if it's antagonistic, Bull, Fenris, Zevran, M!Tabris and M!Mahariel. And probably someone else I forgot but it's a lot of characters and I ship a lot.


Dorian Pavus/Pregnant Male Lavellan
-Almost all of the stuff in the above section.
-Dorian's emotions about his family, and possibly his family finding out.
-Dorian just being a mess and trying really really hard not to be.
-If it's pure magically induced and pre-relationship, Dorian still being nervous about whether or not Lavellan is even into guys and second guessing a lot of things.
-If they're in that "we've banged but Dorian is still pretending it was a casual thing because he's bad at vulnerability" part, all the emotions that might come from that.
-Trying to merge Tevinter customs with Dalish customs and the back and forth and possible arguments about that.
-If Lavellan is still friendly with his clan, how him having a kid with a Tevinter Altus is going to go over.


Pregnant Dorian Pavus/Male Mage Lavellan
-Basically the same as above, but extra traumatic for Dorian because now he's got both the emotional and physical issues.
-Dorian's self worth issues popping way the hell up, especially if it was pre-solid-relationship.
-His body changing and his emotional reactions to that.
-Worry about if his necromantic magic is safe to use while pregnant and a whole lot of attempts at research.
-Emotional clashing with the Chantry people deciding they've got yet another reason to impose their opinions on Dorian or meddle with his family issues.


Iron Bull/Dorian Pavus/Pregnant Male Mage Trevelyan
-Trevelyan is pretty sure this isn't how this is supposed to work but the Circle's idea of sex-ed is a Templar with a sign that read's "DON'T" so for all he knows this is normal (it is not normal).
-Bull and Dorian being a lot more freaked out about the general pregnancy thing than Trevelyan is.
-Trevelyan being sort of freaked out by the pregnancy but that being overshadowed by all the trauma involved with having a kid in the Circle and him suddenly getting thrown back into that mindset in a way he really never expected to have to deal with.
-Other Circle mages closing ranks a bit because this is the first time any of them are having a kid in this new situation with the Inquisition and no one knows how things are going to go down with the Templars/Chantry reactions.
-How Vivienne interacts with the Circle based shifting that's going on.
-Protectiveness, especially if Trevelyan is insisting he doesn't need to be protected (especially if he's lying badly) and double especially if Bull and Dorian aren't quite sure where the boundaries are.
-Things having been "we're all saying it's casual" up until this point and now new boundaries and relationships have to be figured out on top of everything else.


Morrigan/Pregnant Iron Bull
-There are some ships I just wave my hands at and go "But look!" and this is one of them.
-I mean she can turn into a dragon (if you make certain choices)!
-There are so many different dynamics they could have I just aljsfljasdf.
-Morrigan having complicated feelings about having a kid, especially if she doesn't have one yet.
-Alternatively, Morrigan has been through this. On her own.
-All of the Bull-is-knocked-up stuff in the next section.


Pregnant Iron Bull & Bull's Chargers
-The Charger's reaction to their boss getting knocked up, from the jokes to the worrying to the baby madness.
-Bull being Really Freaked Out, especially if demons or spirits were involved at all.
-Bull being even more freaked out if the way they're going to have to get the baby out eventually is going to involve more magic (beyond just healing) and him/the Charger's mentally preparing for that.
-If it's pre-that-quest, then all the stress over the Qunari finding out or what to do with the kid.
-Stress over what they're going to do with a kid once they're back to mercenary work.
-If you'd like to have something shippy in the background instead of keeping to gen, the only characters I'm NOT open to him being shipped with are Sera, Leliana, Josie, Demons, any of the Chargers, or canon enemies. Anyone else (in a willing and enthusiastic context) is fair game.


Pregnant Varric Tethras/Solas
-I tend to ship these two really antagonistically. They've got such similar base ideals but they go about it in very different ways with very different perspectives and ideas of scope and ideas of which types of people are most important.
-Solas somehow causing it. Especially if it's right before Solas runs off again.
-Hawke's reaction. And Bran's. And Cassandra's. Really just the rest of the Inquisition and the Kirkwall crew.
-Solas being a little envious that Varric has a small army of friends helping him (even if Solas has already run off and effectively abandoned him).
-AU's where they meet at different times or different choices are made that leads to alternative worldspaces/relationships.


Solas impregnates Male Trevelyan
-I usually ship Solas with some level of antagonism, but a Trevelyan who is just all about asking stuff and winning Solas over despite everything could be super cute and kinda tragic.
-This is an exception for the "someone deliberately impregnates someone else without talking it over first" dnw, as long as it's Solas who's deliberately impregnating Trevelyan (for whatever reason)
-Or maybe Solas accidentally triggers something while showing Trevelyan something in the fade.
-Or maybe removing the anchor had some unexpected side effects and they only find out well after the fact.
-Them figuring it out after Solas is long gone and the emotional response to that. Especially if Trevelyan is kind of freaked out but mostly indignant.

Male Mage Lavellan impregnates Cullen Rutherfurd
-Cullen being really freaked out, but also this not being the worst magical thing that could have happened to him. It's not even the worst magical thing that has happened to him. It's not even the worst magical thing that's happened to him this year.
-Cullen being even more worried about the effects of lyrium withdrawal now that he's got both himself and his ability to serve the Inquistion and a baby to worry about.
-Cullen's relationship with other Templars and Chantry personnel and how this increasingly obvious magical presence in his life affects that, especially for people outside of the Inquisition who aren't too impressed with the Dalish Mage thing.
-Lavellan or Leliana using the pregnancy as a way to be really strict with people about picking up the slack and to explain away any withdrawal issues that Cullen might have, and Cullen's reaction to that.
-Lavellan calling in Cassandra and Leliana as backup because a lot of what Cullen is dealing with emotionally/socially isn't something he has any experience in.
-A heavily pregnant Cullen both being excellent at strategy from a central position and feeling increasingly worried as his option to go out and fight if he needed to becomes less and less available.
-Cullen writing back to his siblings and having to try to explain this all.
-Cullen's older sister (or any of them really) just straight up showing up at Skyhold.
-I tend to always prefer Cullen as a top in sexual situations if that comes up.
-Dalish and Andrastian culture and pregnancy traditions.


Dorian Pavus impregnates Cullen Rutherfurd
-Mostly the same as the above as far as Cullen's mental state/family goes.
-Dorian not knowing about the lyrium withdrawal until after Cullen is pregnant and the fallout from that, especially if the Inquistior and Leliana are using the pregnancy to give Cullen some breathing room before Dorian knows and he's indignant on Cullen's behalf over it.
-Dorian being very dramatic about things while also having no idea where the boundaries should be or how this changes things for him or how this whole thing is going to work.
-Tevinter and Andrastian culture and pregancy traditions.


Dorian Pavus/Pregnant Male Lavellan

-Not being sure which one of the others is the "father" or if it matters.
-Lavellan pulling rank in the field if he thinks things are getting too dangerous and how that effects the relationship and all the emotional and personal and body-issue issues that could come from that.
-The Chargers trying to help in the background. Krem actually helping in the background.
-Trying to figure out how even to mix in three very different cultures.
-I'd prefer this to take place after Bull has split from the Qunari.
-Them finding out after Trespasser when all of them are just emotionally drained and exhausted and dealing with the fallout of everything that happened there.

Dorian Pavus/Pregnant Male Hawke
Male Hawke/Pregnant Dorian Pavus

-These are all just going in one chunk because they are disasters in any and every configuration.
-How their senses of humor and style and general everything clash and mesh and how much more annoying that makes it for everyone else.
-Hawke making every possible terrible joke that it's possible to make.
-Both of them freaking out and covering it up with snark, because it's much easier to make jokes or downplay things or complain about something petty than to actually confront the fact that they're somehow pregnant.
-Them getting thrown into a relationship at high speed and ending up seeing each other's sincere sides a lot faster than they normally would.
-Hawke's friends being kind of Too Much for Dorian, and Dorian suddenly having to deal with a lot of people and a lot of new relationships in a situation where he has no idea where the boundaries are or what his place is beyond the baby.
-The rest of the Kirkwall crew just rolling with it because it's Hawke. These things happen to and around Hawke.
-Just Varric dealing with this whole mess. Especially if it's during the events of Inquisition so he's the only one from the Kirkwall crew there for Hawke to lean on.
-Dorian not being sure if he has anyone to lean on emotionally and finding out that yes he does.
-Dorian's stress over everything with his family issues and what this might mean in that context.

Pregnant Male Warden & The Inquisition

I nominated this (and its two freeforms so I assume if you're here you're on the same page) for a really specific prompt: In canon the Warden can't help during Inquisition because he's busy dying from the Blight, but they've got Morrigan (possibly with a ton of Mythal generated knowledge) and Leliana (who has probably been trying to solve this since way before now), and a shitton of magical geniuses from all sorts of different backgrounds and perspectives who all happen to be in Skyhold right during this.

So basically one of them figures out a ritual that can de-Warden the Warden, but it also involves impregnating the Warden. And also conveniently gets them the Hero of Ferelden as part of the Inquisition.

Maybe he didn't even show up in order to get a cure, but just decided that dealing with Corypheus was more important. I'd rather it didn't cause any sort of power struggle issues with the Inquisitor, but it could still be incredibly weird for the Inquisitor (and Cullen!) to be ordering around someone who has literally led armies. Or maybe Leliana drags him into the war room and the Inquisitor gains another advisor.

I tend to prefer elven wardens or Amell but I left it open. If whatever ritual they have to do involves sex then I'd rather it either be someone the Warden is already in a relationship (or at least flirting for a few weeks) with prior to the "gonna knock up the Warden" part being known.
-For established realtionship: Alistair, Zevran, or Nathaniel.
-For new relationships: Hawke (except with an Amell), Dorian, Cullen, Bull, Fenris, Nathaniel again,, M!Adaar, M!Trevelyan, or M!Lavellan (for an elven warden).

Pregnant Alistair & Team Warden
-A nonsexual dark ritual that requires a Warden to be impregnated, and for whatever reason they decide on Alistair. Maybe it has to be a man and the Warden is a woman? Maybe there's a part of it that has to be done during the archdemon fight and the Warden will be a little busy trying to stab an oversized dragon? Or Maybe Alistair volunteers and talks the Warden out of doing it because the Warden just finished insisting on being the one to get their soul destroyed so now it's Alistair's turn.
-Any matter of magical shenanigans before or after the blight knocking Alistair up.
-Freaking out over the particulars of everything, especially once he realizes that it's going to be affecting his ability to fight.
-The Warden trying to take care of things (including Alistair) with Wynne and Leliana helping, Zevran trying to help, and Morrigan absolutely not helping unless no one can see her doing it (but maybe sticking around after the final battle if it's the old god baby)
-Anora finding out and there being all sorts of things resultant from that (I adore Anora so if you include her please only in a positive way, even if there's still some residual emotions from what happened during the blight)
-An Alistair who ends up being King with a Queen Anora having to explain all this to her and her dealing with all her emotions around that.
-A warden Alistair having to be kept out of a lot of the nonsense at Amaranthine because he's too pregnant to fight.


Pregnant Male Surana & Companions
-Ritual shenanigans, except Alistair loses the 'be the one to do the sacrifice this time' argument and instead just hovers a lot.
-Post-Ritual Warden trying to deal with the Amaranthine nonsense while heavily pregnant. More of the companions sticking around for all that, because even though they weren't expecting more dark spawn issues they were expecting a baby.
-Or mid-Origins magical shenanigans, especially if it happens before the Circle quest and Surana is desperately making sure the Templars don't realize he's knocked up through that quest, because he has no intention of giving up this baby.
-A heavily pregnant Surana being mistaken for a woman and being both incredibly insulted and a little relieved for the easy explanation.
-A whole lot of companion shenanigans.
-Surana not being from a culture that involves infants or pregnancies that aren't tragic, and taking on a lot of the little traditions and blessings that everyone else gives him.
-Morrigan sticking around after the game, maybe trying to convince Surana to run off with her.
-Wynne's emotions about all this, considering her history.
-Sten being pretty freaked out by all this. Especially if he and Surana are close by that point.
-If you want to go shippy: The pairings below, Nathaniel, or Alistair.


Zevran/Alistair/Pregnant Male Surana
-Everything from the solo-Surana section
-Alistair and Zev both very much not being ready to be a dad.
-Surana would be not ready to be a dad but his knowledge of any of this is so lacking that he can't even tell what he doesn't know enough to panic about it.
-Figuring out boundaries, especially if it's magical shenanigans that happens earlier in the game before they've had a chance to form solid relationships, especially if Zevran and Alistair were more rivals.
-Surana getting Solo pregnant and the other two really buckling down on competing for his affections because now it's Urgent (it isn't), and just driving him absolutely insane until it somehow ends in threesomes.
-Surana hoping that they'll be less disasters after the threesome solution and that not happening.
-Surana blatantly using the pregnancy to get everyone else to behave or get along for half a second.
-All of their pasts and issues feeding into how they're dealing with this situation.
-Stress over what will happen to the kid because of the Circle and what they'll do if it's a mage.
-Zevran kind of freaking out about the Crows a lot.


Zevran/Pregnant Male Surana
-Basically everything except for the Alistair specific stuff in the above section.
-If it happens before they're in a solid relationship, especially if they were lying to themselves about just screwing around, then a whole lot of emergency emotion examining.
-Them still taking awhile to figure things out because complicated relationships don't just fall in line for little things like impending babies.

Reincarnation
using a magical ritual to impregnate self with dead/dying friend's soul

This is another case of "only two very targeted freeforms so I'm assuming if you're here you're into it". Both of these are variations of the same thing. No relationships for this set, unless it's post-pregnancy Zevran/Alistair or Leliana/Morrigan. Also just to reiterate the DNW here, no sex based Dark Ritual.


Alistair & Team Warden
-The Dark Ritual can save the Warden's soul... but not their life.
-Maybe having someone else get impregnated with whoever killed the archdemon was always a part of the Ritual, or maybe Morrigan was originally planning to abscond with the old god soul and since becoming friends with the Warden she's been frantically figuring out another solution and this is it.
-Morrigan still being pregnant with the old god soul and all the worry that brings.
-Morrigan actually sticking around or taking Alistair on the run with her. Maybe Zevran and/or Leliana were eavesdropping on the whole thing and once it actually happens it is now Also Their Problem. Maybe they come along.
-Alistair and Morrigan actually having to figure out how to get along at least enough to raise kids together.
-Worrying over how much the Warden might remember (if anything) and if their personality will be the same after being raised differently. Worrying about if they should try to involve the Warden's family and how impossible that explanation would be.
-Worrying about Flemeth showing up for either of the kids.
-For an Amell Warden, Hawke eventually getting involved anyways.


Morrigan Impregnates Self Magically (no father)
-More of the same, but just Morrigan and her emotions on her own.
-Maybe another version of the Ritual never being able to save the Warden's life, and she ends up pregnant with "twins" (either deliberately, or she assumed the Warden would live as long as she took the old god soul and really wasn't expecting or emotionally prepared for this)
-Maybe the Warden turned down the Ritual and Morrigan tried to do it on her own and ended up with the Warden's soul on accident.
-Maybe the Warden turned down the Ritual and Morrigan knew she couldn't get an old god soul without a warden helping... but she could snatch a mortal soul that was at the moment of death. (If this one, then I'd rather the Archdemon still being destroyed)
-Maybe killing damaged the Warden's soul and now she's got no idea what the ramifications are or how she's going to fix it (but she's absolutely going to fix it).
-Leliana somehow getting enough clues to realize and tracking her down.




 
-I'm pretty vanilla, so when in doubt assume it's probably too kinky to me (unless it fits in with the stuff below).
-Light/soft BSDM (no insults, no punishments that are meant to hurt or humiliate, no spanking), bondage, wax play, pretending at knife play without actually breaking the skin, gentle breathplay, rough kisses, biting each other's lips, biting hard enough to leave teethmarks but not to bruise or break skin, gentle manhandling, size kink (for some pairings), gentle hair pulling, talking during sex
-(Just to clarify, insults are okay in angry-sex, just not in a Dom/Sub situation.)
-You can get a little rougher or dubconnyish if you want as long as both characters are really into it and the person being roughed up encourages it or taunts it into happening. The big thing with me is the consent factor, so as long as it's very clear both characters consent and the kink is a version of something mentioned here that doesn't do any lasting harm, then it should be fine.
-Basically if there are a lot of emotions I'm gonna like it.
-Touching and focus on skin contact.
-Deliberately taking aphrodisiacs (with everyone in the ship aware and consent given ahead of time) as a way to lose control a bit.
-Deliberately going into a sex pollen situation for plot reasons with everyone fully aware of what's going to happen ahead of time.
-Attempts at safe, sane and consensual... but can be poorly negotiated on all fronts or just straight up a bad idea but they're into it.
-Arguments leading to sex.
-Arguments leading to sex leading to continuation of the arguments mid sex without the sex stopping.
-Attempts at dirty talk leads to emotional conversations or outbursts in the middle of sex or foreplay that do stop the sex.
-One character gets on a tangent and tries to have a serious emotional conversation while in the middle of sex.
-Character's guard goes down enough to mention things during sex that they're too embarrassed to talk about once they aren't turned on.
-One character going uncharacteristically quiet or something mid-sex and the other noticing and stopping to make sure they're alright (either leading to h/c or kink negotiation or something like that.). Maybe it doesn't even have anything to do with the sex but is something entirely different catching up to them at a bad time.
-Having to keep quiet so their friends don't hear and being really bad at it.
-Stuck in a small place and end up banging
-Very very careful sex with an injured character.
-Body worship of a character who got tied up expecting something very different and now they're super emotional about it
-Establishing a safeword then stopping when a character looks super distressed even if they haven't said the safeword.
-Distressed character wanting to keep going anyways.
-Character has been deliberately avoiding completely unrelated issues and something about the sex just triggers that breakdown and they're incredibly annoyed about it having to happen now and stopping sex they were enjoying up until they started crying and trying to get that across to a very concerned/panicked partner.
-H/C leading to makeouts or sex.
-The Comforter in a h/c situation stopping things from being sexual in that moment because they're worried the other person is too emotionally broken or physically injured at that time and then initiating a revisiting of the situation later when things seem more stable.
-Taking care of a sex pollen/spell victim without doing anything sexual, then talking it over days or weeks later leads to dirty talk about what the comforter wished they could have done which leads to sex.

-Explanations for mpreg that make it possible for some people/species in normal situations
-Focus on weight gain
-Pregnant character's emotions being dismissed as hormones (unless immediately shut down)
-Abortion (can be considered)
-Shaming a character who considers/suggests abortion
-Coercing character into keeping baby
-Miscarriage
-If there's time for the characters to decide who's going to be the father from a spell, deliberate impregnation by "mother" or "father"(s) where part of the pairing isn't aware and willing (Solas/Trevelyan is an exception for this)



Warning for spoilery DNWs below. If you'd rather check only one fandom the DNWs are in the requests for each.



Dragon Age DNWs  (warning: Spoilers)
-Sex-based Dark Ritual
-Loghain as a Warden
-Solo King Alistair or Alistair with a Warden Queen
-Any of the forced choice such as the situation in Here Lies the Abyss or the Charger's in Bull's quest. (The Warden dying at the end of Origins is fine)
-Custom names for player characters (So you don't have to look them up, here are the defaults for the player characters I directly requested: Alim Surana, Darrian Tabris, Theron Mahariel, Garrett Hawke, Mahanon Lavellan, Kaaras Adaar, Maxwell Trevelyan)




Fire Emblem DNWs (still: Spoilers)
-For Chrom/Robin pairings, Chrom being married to anyone else or Lucina being born from anyone else but the two of them. If you really want her already there for some reason it's fine if you have Naga just straight up tossing Chrom a baby out of nowhere, or Lucina actually being Emmeryn's kid and Chrom being her uncle in this world or something. Point is no normal baby production with Chrom involved if he's with Robin.
-Custom names for Robin
-For Fire Emblem specifically, any relationships involving Nowi, Nah, Ricken, Donnel, or a kid with their parents/sibling.



SWTOR DNWs (and yet: Spoilers)

-Dark sided Jaesa
-Master/Apprentice or Jedi/Padawan relationships, even after they're aren't apprentices/padawans anymore. Keeper/Agent set during the Agent storyline (after is fine for this)
-The either/or situation with Vette and Torian (it's in the general DNWs but I wanted to specify here)

AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Asymptotical
(There's nothing there, I'm sorry! I abandoned fandom for grad school back in like 2012 and now that I've rediscovered free time I wanted to avoid being tempted to look at my old fic. I tried to be fairly detailed in this to make up for it!)


So I just realized that I somehow forgot an entire section. If you matched with me on Mass Effect I'm super sorry omg. Feel free to totally ignore anything I say in that section for obvious reasons I swear I love everything I requested there, it was just a last second addition that I somehow forgot to ever add here.





Thank you so much for writing something for me and I'm so sorry for this impending book of a letter! The general stuff works for most of the fandoms, except for the obvious exception of Horizon Zero Dawn or Gen Star Wars. Otherwise this whole letter may as well be "tl;dr: I really like fluffy UST and emotional insecurity". I tried to give possible prompts that'll work with a variety of lengths so you'll have options depending on what you want to write, but if you already had an idea that fits in with my general wants/dnw then go for it! <3


General wants:
-Fluffy UST, especially if it's got a hint of angst.
-People trying to privately deal with self focused angst (imposter syndrom, ptsd, ect)
-H/C and emotional H/C
-Just people loving each other and being too dysfunctional to talk about their feelings either at all or in full depending on the characters and misunderstanding each others intentions.
-Arguments and emotional outbursts leading into relevations about feelings.
-One character making the other sit down for emotional talk time, especially if they make the decision at an awkward time.
-Smut is great but I'm totally happy with just UST and pining that ends on a high note too.
-Canon divergence, especially for-want-of-a-nail or alternate meetings.
-Player characters as companions types AU's.
-If there's something awkward or embarrassing or ooc in canon that you hate, feel free to ignore it. I'm cool with handwaving away stuff if it'll be more fun to write with that detail changed.
-Stuff that emphasizes how smart or clever the characters are, even if it's just tiny stuff in the background.
-The paired characters having friendships and relationships beyond just the pairing, especially if they came into it with canon ties.
-All of the characters have their canon faults and insecurities and I love stuff that actually has some of that in there, though I know emphasizing that doesn't fit with every fic.
-I honestly am fine with shippy fic that doesn't resolve the relationship. It's still amazing if it does! But if it doesn't don't feel pressured to force it.


General prompts:
-Sick fic, where the sick is a more temporary thing like the flu but dangerous enough that everyone is worried! Especially pre-relationship sick-fic where emotions are leaking out accidentally from at least one person. It doesn't need to end in dealing with the emotions, if it does that amazing but if the end is the sick character waking up and going "Wait what" then I am A-OK with that! I'd prefer no smut with this one unless it's after they're better, just UST and emotions and hurt/comfort.
-Two-dysfunctional-idiots go on a paired mission (or get separated from everyone else on a normal mission) and have an USTy time. Especially if one of them ends up getting injured.
-Character has to go to a fancy party and gets teased maybe too much because they look all pretty in their fancy clothes, especially if the person teasing them isn't meaning to be as flirty as they're being.
-One of the characters massively overdoes it with magic/biotics/force-abilities trying to protect other people. Sort of like the sick fic prompt but a different undertone since it was self inflicted (but still necessary for the situation to turn out as well as it did) and probably more emotional issues.


General Do Not Wants:
-Humiliation
-Public declarations of love in an announcement sort of way
-The POV character being super socially inept in a way that's likely to cause major secondhand embarrassment.
-Embarrassing cultural misunderstandings (misunderstandings are great,  just not ones that might cause a bunch of secondhand embarrassment!)
-Cheating
-Open relationships or unrequested poly
-Rape or dubcon
-Sex pollen (A/B/O is fine as long as everyone keeps their wits about them)
-Torture
-Vomit/Scat/Watersports/Detailed descriptions of spit
-Cumplay
-Ageplay
-Underaged
-Misunderstandings centered around thinking someone is in another relationship
-Unrequested noncanon background relationships
-Modern AUs
-Slavery (unless they're just killing slavers on a mission or something)
-Prostitution
-Crossovers
-Fake Relationships
-Bashing background characters. I love them all <3 . Even the ones I don't like! Even the ones that're canonically kinda jerks (Keeping their canon flaws is fine and encouraged just not turning them into punching bags)!
-Noncanon permanent maiming/incapacitation
-Permanent named character death (canon character death is okay if you prefer sticking to it but I am 100% here for everyone-lives AUs)
-Teacher/Student (or a dynamic that calls to that)
-Unequal emotional relationships (it's fine if there's light bdsm in smut, but it needs to stay in the smut)



Dragon Age:
-Any of the general prompts
-Shapeshifting goes a bit wrong, resulting in a partial shapeshift that magically happens to be aesthetically pleasing (I love wingfic or maybe Hawke tries to go dragon and ends up with neat scales or something, but if you're into something else that's fun too. If you go a smutty direction please leave the downstairs bits normal though I'm sorry I'm kinda vanilla), and then the fallout from that (Social as long as it's not a public embarrassment thing. Physical because they still gotta fight and now their body is different. Emotional because whoever they're paired with ends up helping them out the most and whatever new or old insecurities it bringing out into the open). If it's someone in the Inquisition/Origins timeline who gets shapeshifted oddly then maybe it's just a temporary thing until Morrigan gets back from wherever, manages to stop laughing, and helps them out.
-I love Hawkes/Wardens/Inquisitors who are mages, especially canon-divergence apostates.
-For DA2 I prefer friendship endings rather than rivalries, but the arguments they can get into are still pretty great.
-I tried to organize each pair with the person I prefer to be more dominant as the first name before the /, but it's mostly relevant if it gets to smut.

Pairings:
F!Hawke/Cassandra: Purple Hawke being a competent dork and Cass being her awkward self. Doesn't have to start as something serious but if Hawke is totally serious and actively flirting and Cass is just clueless I would love that. Can either be more serious and take into account what went down with Varric or just be dorky fun.

Fenris/M!Hawke: A) Shy blue Hawke that's just Hawke/Fenris, or B) Purple Hawke that can either be just Hawke/Fenris or be a poly Hawke/Fenris/Isabela (if Isabela is actually emotionally involved and adding to the dysfunction with her dynamics). I pretty much love any dynamic with these two, because even in canon they have so many emotions to deal with and things to learn about each other, and even after they seem to get it together whoops nope it's still gonna be a journey. An pining emotional journey. If you go the blue route I love the sort of plot with a healer-Hawke where Fenris has to choose between potentially dealing with emotions or dealing with Anders, otherwise any of the prompts should fit. If you go the purple route just Hawke being a massive overenthusiastic dork (and maybe covering some insecurities) in everyone's direction but especially Fenris with any of the prompts.

Josephine/Cassandra:
Leliana/Cassandra: .
Leliana/Josephine:

I ship any combination of these three (including poly if you want to do that) because they're just so adorable and they each bring such a different dynamic in. Leliana being mostly experienced with occasional bouts of really girlish enthusiasm and all the emotions she has to deal with from everything that happened to start Inquisition, Josie being an adorable enthusiastic dork, Cass being her whole mess of trying to be stoic and really being ridiculously romantic and all the emotional mess she has to deal with. Since these three obviously knew each other before, something either pre-game or entirely AU would be pretty neat too. Or some variation on the canon romances.
(I'm sorry this really isn't a lot to work off of for three separate pairings but my emotions for these three in any configuration are basically just going EEEEEEEEEEE and pointing wildly so I'm almost impossible to disappoint here.)

Dorian/M!Lavellan: I love the dynamic that these two have in canon, where they spend half the game dancing around it and then even after they've acknowledged that they're into each other there's still the question of "how much" and what acceptable boundaries are and the inability to just talk about things directly. If you decide to go the smut direction, anything with Lavellan keeping things slow and making Dorian work out the emotional stuff with him first is incredibly relevant to my interests. Otherwise I'm always about slight AUs where how they get together goes differently from canon. (I poly ship them with Bull too, if that's something you'd like to write!)

Solas/M!Lavellan: I tend to prefer this to be a relationship that has some conflict in it, especially if Lavellan is the sort who isn't very concerend with religion or the Right Way to Elf. Definitely NOT a teacher/pupil dynamic, it's fine if Solas makes steps towards that like he does in canon but I'd rather they eventually get things to a more equal dynamic where Solas can give him advice/information on an even level and where Solas is willing to at least hear and consider Lavellan's thoughts (though if there's conflict with that taking a bit for them to figure out how to work together and whether they even like each other despite being attracted to each other then that's great!).

Zevran/M!Warden: I'd prefer it if the Warden is Surana or Tabris for this (if you really prefer writing a human Warden then Amell is okay as well!). If you do sickfic then the Warden being the sick one while Zev pretends he isn't panicking would be amazing, otherwise just generally them pretending they've totally got it together while absolutely not having it together in either the general prompts or something else is great.



Mass Effect Andromeda:
-Any of the general prompts
-I love slight canon divergence AUs where Alec is still alive (and all the Ryder family dynamics and issues that go along with that), though if you can find a way to have SAM connected to Sara/Scott still that would be great because I adore SAM.
-As a variation on the above, Alec having an alternate air source enough to stay alive but still ending up in a coma while both of the twins are awake and dealing with the plot opens up a lot of sibling interactions we don't get in the game!
-There's a lot of interpretations on how that family dynamic actually works and I'm here for pretty much all of them, though I love the awkward we're-used-to-mom-doing-the-emotional-labor-and-still-grieving fluff.
-I prefer to have their names stay the defaults (Sara & Scott)
-I love slight AUs where the twins are more on the same genius scale as their parents or have different professional backgrounds than the canon ones.
-(I'm sorry this part ended up being 99% Ryder family instead of the pairings when those should probably be more a focus but the family themes in this game are one of the reasons why I love it so much! All of that can just be background as a way to end up with whatever emotional dynamic you'd like to write <3)
-Try to avoid awkward embarrassing figuring-out-each-others-culture stuff and major social misteps due to lack of information or anything like that.

Pairings:
Jaal/Sara: I just love pretty much anything with these two, whether their canon dynamic or something with a bit more conflict. Slight AUs where they've got to get to know each other without Jaal being on the ship or without that initial contact happening at Aya are pretty fun but so is the canon timeline. Feel free to shake things up or not as much as you want!

Sara/Peebee: Both of them being a bit dysfunctional and not quite sure what they're doing or how serious they are, mixed in with tech based chaos. If you'd like to write something a lot more focused on the remnant (especially if Sara is more of an engineer than she was in canon) and them trying to find time to study that between everything else or veering off into exploration mode the moment they've got a chance then I'm totally into that!

Kandros/Scott: I wish these two had to work together a lot more than they do in canon! There's so much that could be there! I'm all here for Scott being an awkward out-of-his-depth dork who's trying real hard to be professional and not mess up while also crushing hard enough to form a black hole. There's a lot of possibility for more emotional stuff when missions go wrong or people are questioning Scott and all the imposter syndrome that naturally goes with that for him.

Addison/Sloan Kelly: These two having to figure out how to work together after the events of the game and being way more attracted to each other than either is willing to acknowledge. If there's some background Ryder-is-driving-us-both-insane that would be great but don't worry if it doesn't fit.



Horizon Zero Dawn:
Aloy & Rost:
I would absolutely love a canon divergence thing where Rost lives and accompanies Aloy out to deal with everything. No romantic relationships, just a story or snippets of how that would change things. Rost maybe actually telling Aloy about his past himself.

If you'd rather not do canon divergence, kidfic snippets while Aloy is growing up and causing mayhem is great too, preferably from Rost's POV or both.



Star Wars Prequels:
Padme &/ Obi-wan:
I'd love a canon divergence set in a timeline where Padme lives and these two raise the twins on the run or in hiding or with the rebels after everything goes horribly wrong (instead of sending them off to where they ended up in canon). Either as a pairing or as a gen. If you'd like to pull in any side characters from either the prequels or the clone wars series then that would be great. Can be anything from super UST-to-smut (though the twins should still be a major element) to slice of life with two friends trying to raise kids together and helping each other through the emotions of everything that happened to something more plot focused.

If you'd prefer to stick to canon, then really USTy fic from before Padme and Anakin got together is great too! If you go this route my general wants apply (though some of them may also apply to the canon divergence route).  Please avoid any cheating with this route, even emotional cheating.

I like poly shipping those three but only if it's super fluffy with Padme being the super competent one and no major jealousy issues, so you can go that route as well if you're into that! Especially if it works with one of the general prompts.



Mass Effect Trilogy:
-Any of the general prompts
-There's a lot of incredibly stressful stuff going on in canon in this, and a lot of emotional fallout that could happen.

Pairings:
Aria T'Loak/Female Shepard: I love the sort of respectful tension that these two have in canon. They're both incredibly powerful in entirely different ways and strong willed in very different directions. I could see it going in a ton of different directions with a ton of different emotional dynamics and honestly would love any of them.

Male Shepard/Garrus: I just love both of these two dorks and wish they could smash faces in canon?

Female Shepard/Garrus/Tali: Anything with the general prompts could work! For more pairing specific prompts: Since Garrus and Tali can get together in canon it'd be really cute to see something where they seduce Shepard together, especially if the both of them are still pretty much dorks while attempting it. Something where they get together earlier than canon (especially before Shepard returning in ME2) and whoops now their crush is back would also be pretty fun. Could go the other way too, with Shepard getting with either of them in 2 and then during the events of 3 it turns into something poly.
