Farore On Ao3

Amaretto Sour, The Shrouded Halls, Codex: Bond Theory, Rest

[farore05]

In exactly one month Amaretto Sour will turn one year old! To celebrate I reached out to @yelenhol (who created the cover for the fic) and commissioned this beautiful piece. 🌿

Touch me again and I'll kill you.

Do you still have that post about motherhood and the difference between Faye's and Freya's approach to it in relation to their sons?

No unfortunately I do not 😩

That was back on my God of War/Faye account. This account is more focused on a different game and character. I can try to search through my Google Docs when I get home and see if I saved it on there. 💚

Codex: Bond Theory

Chapter 12, Eclipse

“Maker,” Varric muttered, “I did a terrible job keeping you out of trouble.”

“The worst,” she agreed, a grin tugging at her mouth… It faded quickly. Ivy leaned back in the chair, arms crossed as she stared at the far wall. “Everyone’s on edge,” she said after a moment. “They’re trying not to show it… but, I can feel it.”

Varric watched her for a moment. “You’ll get through it,” he said. “Always have.”

Ivy went quiet. She looked down at her hands, then glanced back at him, a more pointed expression slipping across her face.

“You still haven’t kept your promise.”

Varric groaned. “Uh oh. That tone never leads anywhere good.”

“You said,” she continued, ignoring him, “that once Solas’s ritual was dealt with, you’d tell me about my parents.”

Hello hello, I WAS going to work on comic pages today but then someone in the Fade Discord server dropped this pic of a fancy shirt sleeve jacket thing

and said Emmrich would look great in it and I was like "hell yeah, it's been a while since we've done Emmrich Dress Up, I'll just do a quick warmup".

And then suddenly it was three hours later and I'd created this.

I'm not mad at it. He does look amazing.

Anyway comics return on Monday, cheers!

Every day I wake up and try to think of ways to make him problematic. 😌

[farore05]

When I have to write Emmrich being happy instead of tormenting him through various levels of suffering.

I think a lot of people are forgetting that on tumblr fandom used to be practiced very differently. now everyone fucks off to their discords or tumblr groups to discuss everything with a select few, making tags be nearly only used for posting some finished fanworks or not at all

a decade ago people didn't have tumblr groups. people didn't even have dms. if you wanted to talk to anyone about anything you had to make a post, or send an ask (which more often than not would get published and thereby become a post in the end too)

so next time you think "I have a fandom thought but I have to find a small group of hyperspecifically like-minded people to share it with in private" remember all the freaks you could be missing out on meeting by keeping the tags dead. use tags, make friends. fuck discord.

You can't hide gold like this in the tags! That really is the perfect way to put it! ⬇️

Another round of: “do I really want to commit to doing this html formatting for the entire fic?”

Fault Lines - Ch 5

Chapter 5: Cracks is now live on AO3. Read it HERE!

Small chapter snippet below the cut...

Emmrich looked himself over in the mirror once, twice, three times. There was nothing to fuss over, not really. His hair was styled, not a strand out of place, shirt free of wrinkles. His apartment was near spotless, as it always was. He wrung his hands together. Was that sweat collecting on his brow? He dabbed the moisture away with a handkerchief and took a deep breath. There was nothing to fret over. Sure, there was a wrench thrown in their original dinner plans once Emmrich discovered the restaurant he'd chosen was unexpectedly closed, but Lucanis had graciously offered to instead cook for Emmrich. Something about that felt inherently more…intimate than dining out. Or perhaps he was reading too far into the gesture.

Manfred quirked his head, letting out an inquisitive meow as Emmrich began to pace across the living room floor. It wouldn't be long now. Just breathe, Emmrich reminded himself. If he presented himself with that much anxiety evident on his face, it would only further complicate the matter. He still wasn't even sure if any attraction was one-sided in his burgeoning…friendship with Lucanis. But try as he might, his stomach still fluttered each time the two met up for coffee and tea in the mornings or whenever their hands brushed throughout the work day.

And then, there was the whole matter of Dana. Emmrich sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. Foolish. All of these feelings were utterly foolish. Yet, there was something different in the way she spoke the other night, in the way she felt in his arms. If he focused on the sensation, he could still feel her touch in the hollow of his bones, as if she'd left grooves in the shape of her fingerprints. For a moment, it was as if they were in his bed again, under the cover of darkness, dreaming about their future.

How had he managed to get himself into this mess in the first place?

Heads up. March is a busy month for me. I decorate birthday & wedding cakes for my friends & family as a little side hustle and, like, everyone I know is born/getting married in March.

Old man content will return! In the meantime go read @starfleetteddybear and @babblingrook ‘s fics!! (That’s what I’m doing rn)

i worked up the courage to submit one of my fics to a discord run fanfic book club. i braced myself for discussion and possible critique. but somehow what i got was so much worse… radio silence.
