Finally got my commission of my elven girl, Hally Lavellan, and my friend @capricornrabies‘s clone commando OC, Pumpkin, in! Darkstar Vampire did an amazing job capturing their chaos perfectly! Hally is an absolute mad woman who enjoys explosions, her boyfriend, and pulling pranks on people. She and Pumpkin usually get into all kinds of mischief together, including testing out her newest explosives she’s made.

It wasn’t much of a surprise that I was awake before Pumpkin; every morning consisted of me being up before the sleepy commando. I lay there quietly for a moment, smiling softly at the slightly snoring man, his hair a wreck and his mouth hanging open a little bit, soft rays of sunshine falling across his handsome face. Moving quietly, I slid out of bed, putting on a discarded tank top and some comfy pj shorts and headed out into the kitchen so I could make him some breakfast in bed.

Waffles are always a good choice. You can never go wrong with waffles, especially homemade ones! I started pulling everything that I needed out and got to work mixing everything together.

 “Wait, where’s my baking powder? Oh, hold on, here it is.” I grumbled, finding the can on my counter, which was odd since it was usually in my cabinet. I must have forgotten to put it back the last time I used it. I measured out the amount I needed and tossed it into the batter, whisking it in before grabbing some chocolate to chop up so I could toss that into the mix as well.

 Just as I set my knife down, a weird sound caught my attention and I turned to see the bowl of batter explode with a loud bang, startling me into screaming at the top of my lungs. I stood there for a second, batter covering my counter, ceiling, me, and the floor and cabinets.

 “Hally?!” Pumpkin yelled, scrambling into the kitchen, panicked, until he saw me and started cackling.

 “Uh surprise? I was gonna make you breakfast, and, well, I fucked up.” I was grinning sheepishly, batter dripping down my face and onto my chest and clothes. Pumpkin was holding himself up on the doorframe, crying from laughing so hard.

 “Wha-what’d you do, put a grenade in the bowl?!” He howled, hyena laughing at the situation.

 “Uh, well, sort of! I thought that I grabbed my baking powder, and as we can both see, this was not baking powder at all, but one of my experimental chemicals. Why it’s in the kitchen in an old baking powder container, I don’t have a fucking clue.” I had dissolved into a fit of giggles into a fit of giggles at this point, Pumpkin having fallen to the floor wheezing from laughing so hard. “So much for surprising you with breakfast.” I went to grab some towels, trying to get stuff cleaned up while Pumpkin was still on the floor dying of laughter. Something on the counter caught my eye and I groaned, picking up fragments of my bowl.

 “That was my last mixing bowl! Aww man! Guess we’re making a trip up to Noveria so I can buy some new ones after I get this cleaned up. This has happened far too many times.” I shook my head while wiping up the counter. Pumpkin caught his breath, got to his feet and wandered over, grabbing some towels and wiped my face off, a grin lighting his face up.

 “We’ll grab something while we’re out.”

 While he wasn’t looking, I gathered up some of the batter and smashed it into his face with a laugh, squealing when he grabbed me around the waist.

 “If I’m gonna be battered, so are you!” I was laughing as I smeared the batter on his chest and neck, laughing harder when he got me back.

 “Brat! C’mere!” Pumpkin was cackling again, coming after me when I got free, tossing a handful of batter my way. Ten minutes later, we were cuddled up on the kitchen floor, covered in drying batter and laughing our asses off.

 “I love you ma vhenan.” I managed to get out between giggles, leaning into his chest, resting my head on his shoulder.

 “I love you too, Hally.”

 “C’mon, we should go shower before we go anywhere,” I wiggled free from his arms and held a hand out for him to take, making a face when he groaned. “No complaining ya nasty ass. Let’s go, shower time. I’m not taking you anywhere covered in dried waffle batter.”

 “Alright, alright, fine. Will you wash my hair? I like it when you do that, it feels nice.”

 “Yeah, okay, I can do that. C’mon big guy.”

It was late when I got the call from Keres’ guard, Sylvain I think his name was, requesting my assistance in an important matter. I was a little confused as to why the Blood Fae was requesting for my help exactly since, y’know, elves and Fae don’t like each other much, but I was getting paid, so I wasn’t about to turn him down.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, did you say you’d pay me to make weapons and go kill a clan of gargoyles? Fuck yes! I get to make things explode, this is the happiest day of my life!” I was grinning widely at the big guy’s words, absolutely excited to get paid to blow shit up. This was the dream! “When do you need me? Uh huh. Okay, I can be there in a week. No, no, it’ll only take me twenty minutes tops to make everything I need, it’s the ride there that’s gonna take that long. And, uh, convincing Rune that this is a good idea. My fee is six thousand gold to cover expenses on materials, travel, and on the offhand that I lose a limb doing this. Well, another limb anyway.” I rubbed my right arm, wincing at the thought of going through another loss of a limb. One prosthetic was more than enough, thank you.

“Brilliant! I’ll get to work and see ya in a week.” I ended the call and jumped to it, grabbing my sketchpad and began designing a grenade launcher and rocket launcher of my own design, turning on my music and cranking it loudly as I got to work, welding and hammering, singing along with the tunes excitedly. I was so into my work, I didn’t notice Rune at first until she was turning my music off, startling me.

“Lahalaan Lavellan, I have been yelling at you for the past twenty minutes. What are you doing?” Rune had her hands on her hips, glaring daggers at me and I winced a little bit, grinning awkwardly.

“I’m making a grenade launcher and rocket launcher. I just got a call from Keres’ guard about hiring me to make them and go kill a clan of gargoyles!” I didn’t falter under her glare, my baby sister not as intimidating as she thought she was.

“I-I’m sorry, you what?” She was staring at me like I’d grown a second head and I assumed she hadn’t heard what I told her.

“I was hired to make a grenade launcher and go kill gargoyles.” I was ecstatic over the idea, I had been dying for a little action, it had been so boring lately, so this was going to be a blast. So to speak.

“I… do you have a plan at least?” Rune wasn’t even shocked at this point, she just rolled with it. Guess she was too used to my shenanigans for anything to surprise her anymore, which was mildly disappointing. I needed to do better about keeping her on her toes clearly.

“Yes!” I grinned then stopped for a moment and frowned a bit. “No… Yes!” I had to cycle through a couple of thoughts for a moment before coming to a full decision, but I was almost certain that I had at least half a plan put together.

“This is either madness, or brilliance.” Rune was pinching the bridge of her nose at my response, her voice sounding tired and resigned.

“It’s remarkable how often those two traits coincide with each other.” I pointed out, much to her irritation clearly with that groan she let out before walking out of my workshop, grumbling in elven. I chuckled softly before turning my music back on and getting back to work on my project, wanting to get it all completed and ready to go.

~*~*~

One week later, Rune and I were riding up to the palace on our harts, the two of us looking up at the famed Scarlet Keep with wide eyes.

“Whoa. It’s so much bigger than I was expecting it to be,” I muttered in elvish to Rune, who nodded slowly, eyes the size of dinner plates as we got closer to the keep. Waiting outside for us was Keres, the Blood Fae queen grinning as we hopped off the harts and approached her, the Fae hugging us tightly.

“What are you two doing here? I wasn’t expecting to host you! Not that I’m unhappy to see you, of course, I’m glad you two are here.” Keres stepped back, puzzled now that our greetings were over and done with.

“We’re here to kill gargoyles!” I was beaming. “Well, okay, I’m here to kill gargoyles. She’s here to make sure I don’t blow myself up.” I pointed at Rune and Keres just stood there, head slightly tilted, and brow furrowed.

“I’m… sorry? I don’t recall asking you to come do that?” Keres was puzzled, trying to determine when she asked us to be gargoyle exterminators.

“You didn’t. I did,” Sylvain came walking out, dressed in that imposing ass armor of his that had Rune shifting closer to me, hiding a little bit from the intimidating Fae. “Got here just in time too. Do you have what you need?”

“Oh yeah,” I grinned motioning to the grenade launcher and rocket launcher plus the bag of ammo. “So, where’s our quarry? Oooh I sound like a bounty hunter when I say it like that.”

Rune rolled her eyes and shook her head, smacking me upside the head lightly, earning a scowl from me as I rubbed my noggin where she smacked me.

“You know, how’s Opal gonna feel about you being this stoked to kill gargoyles?” Rune inquired with a cocked eyebrow, bringing up our gargoyle friend in the Court of Stars. I opened my mouth to reply, then shut it again, thinking that over. What if this was her clan we were about to murderize?

“We don’t tell her about this…?” I ventured after a moment of awkward silence and Rune sighed heavily, rubbing her temples. The frustration was palpable and Keres snorted a little bit, muttering that this reminded her of her and Ajax a bit. “Anyway, let’s get moving! I wanna get going while there’s still daylight.” I pulled a map out of the bag I had with me and unfolded it so Sylvain could mark where we needed to go.

“We managed to take out quite a few of them, but I don’t know how many are left. There’s this old ruin they took over as their home, your best bet would be to start there.” Sylvain took my pen, marking the map and trail we needed to use.

“Brilliant. I’m expecting half of my payment upfront and the other half upon completion. You good with that?” I folded the map back up, handing it over to Rune, and accepted the small leather pouch he handed over, tossing it up in the air a few times, before palming it and sliding it into my bra. “Onword, Buttercup! There’s fuckery to spread!” I was cackling, scrambling up onto my hart’s back while Rune groaned.

“Only Varric gets to call me ‘Buttercup’, Hally.” She muttered darkly as we took off, waving at Sylvain and Keres. This was going to be intense and I was a little nervous; these were old elven ruins, who knows just how many gargoyles were there calling it home. I was almost a little nervous that I hadn’t made enough ammunition for this job, what if there were more gargoyles than originally planned on? I was getting too into my own head over this, I needed to pull myself together and focus on the job at hand. Just had to get through this and we’d be six thousand gold richer. Could use it to buy Rune a new bed since she and Spooks broke hers on accident, maybe stock up on some more supplies for the clan. This was going to be just fine.

~*~*~

“Was this part of the plan?!” Rune bellowed, hurling a fireball at a group of gargoyles hot on our heels as we raced through the elven ruins.

“No! No it was not!” I shouted back, turning long enough to hurl an explosive behind us, yelping as we got tossed forward from the blow back. We scrambled to our feet and took cover long enough for me to load up the grenade launcher and fire it off, wincing slightly from the kickback.

“You don’t even have a plan!” Rune realized quickly, hitting my arm angrily. I smacked her back, glaring at the pissed off mage and shook my head a little bit, trying to do some calculations in my head.

“I do too! Sort of!” I didn’t have shit but she didn’t need to know that. I was at least trying to come up with something, but thinking was a little hard when I was currently having to keep an eye out on my surroundings for fucking gargoyles. Now I got why Sylvain wanted this place cleared out, this clan was huge.

“Oh, brilliant, so you have half a plan?!” She conjured up a blizzard to slow them down and I crammed another grenade into the launcher, getting it set up for round two.

“Even better! I have a quarter of a plan!” No I fucking didn’t, I didn’t have shit. I was flying by the seat of my pants here and was winging this job.

“Brilliant! We’re gonna die!”

“There’s that Rune optimism I love! We’re not gonna die, it’s gonna be fine!” I lied through my teeth with a devilish grin. Had to keep my little sister reassured that we would be fine, that I was going to keep us safe. “Wait. Wait, wait, wait. I’ve got an idea! Rune, start running!” I grabbed the rocket launcher, getting it set up and fished out some smoke bombs I’d made, yanking the pins and hurling them over our cover while Rune sprinted towards the exit. I took aim at the roof of the ruins, took a deep breath and fired the rocket, tossing the weapon aside and hauling ass as fast as I could after Rune as the ruins came down around me, Rune thankfully outside.

“Hally?! HALLY!”

I burst out of a cloud of smoke, dirt, and debris, coughing hard and collapsed to my knees, trying to catch my breath, and looked over my shoulder. There was no way any of them would have survived that, it took out the entire building, making it collapse in on itself.

“Sorry you can’t study that particular ruin, sis. Told you I had a plan.” I panted, taking her outstretched hand and getting to my feet. “Was it a good plan? No, no it wasn’t. But it worked!”

“You pulled that out of your ass right then and there, didn’t you? There was never any plan, you just went in without thinking. Well, okay, I say you weren’t thinking, but you definitely were thinking. Thinking about one thing: explosions. As per usual with your damaged brain.” She took her staff and hit me in the head with it, making me yelp.

“Why do you have to hit me?! That’s not gonna make me any smarter!”

“It might if I hit you hard enough!”

“Let’s just go collect the rest of my money please. I need a shower. And we have a week-long ride home. Hey, think Keres will let us stay at the palace tonight?” I asked and Rune just threw her hands into the air, stalking off without answering. “Rune? C’mon, what do you think?” I called after her retreating back, breaking into a jog to catch up with her, hoping that Keres would be cool and let us crash there for a night. Fighting gargoyles was a lot tougher than I’d originally thought and I wanted a shower and a nap.

Girls Night

Summery: Girls night on Ellodeem takes a turn for the wild for the Fae and elven girls just looking for a night of fun. Pairing: None Warnings: Mentions of fighting, alcohol, and blood Word Count: 774 Tagging: @roseofalderaan​, @capricornrabies​, @littlevodika​, @notreallybeccab​ Birdie and Puffin belong to @capricornrabies​

Girls night: One of my favorite nights of the week. I was getting dolled up and ready to go out with Keres, Ashlyn, Nyx, Nat, Valkyrie, Rune, Hally, Aurelia and Briar for drinks, maybe some karaoke, and see what the night brought to us. After the past week I’d had, I was desperate for a night out with my girls honestly; all this court bullshit was getting to be too much.

“Hey, you ready?” Keres called from outside my door and I slipped out quietly, shutting the door behind me.

“Yeah, is everyone else here and ready to go?” I fell into step with her, looping my arm through hers with a grin of my own.

“Yup! Left ‘em in the great hall chatting with the guys before we take off. Where’s Wolffe at? I saw Sinker and Boost but not your wolf.”

“He’s passed out in bed. He had a pretty long campaign and was just wiped out, the poor love.” I shot a soft smile over my shoulder at my door. Poor man had come stumbling in looking ready to drop while I was getting dressed, so I made sure to let him know where I was going before helping him with his armor so he could go to bed.

“Awww poor baby,” Keres teased, smirking as we entered the great hall where the other girls were waiting on us, milling about with their respective mates and boyfriends if they were there. “Alright ladies, let’s get going. We’ve got a lot of bars to hit.” She was practically crowing, excitement lighting up her face while Birdie just sighed and shook his head, Puffin looking just as apprehensive about this little excursion we were about to embark on.

“Oh, it’ll be fine. We’re just a group of girls dressed up for a night out in the city. What could possibly go wrong?” I rolled my eyes, scoffing slightly at the idea of us getting into too much trouble.

“Oh yeah, what could possibly go wrong? Those were your words, right Dani?” Rune shouted, ducking as some guy tried to punch her, laying hands on the poor man and zapping him with some electricity.

“How was I supposed to know Briar was going to pop her mouth off?” I shouted back, slamming a guy into a table before cracking a pool cue on his back. “Besides, this is kinda fun!”

“Says you! I didn’t even do anything!” Ashlyn shot back with a yelp when a fist connected with her mouth, busting her lip wide open much to her irritation. Briar and Hally were both cackling up a storm as they got into it, Hally diving behind someone and Briar pushing them back so they fell over Hally. They worked in tandem to beat the shit out of the Fae that Briar pissed off by running her mouth. Val had a man in a headlock, laughing as she used him as a shield from two of his buddies, headbutting one and kicking the other in the gut, sending him flying back while Nyx, Nat, and Aurelia all ganged up on a bigger Fae who was intent on going for Aurelia. Fifteen minutes and a bunch of bruises and busted lips and faces later, we were sitting at a table trying to catch our breath.

“Here,” Cy, our bartender, set a bottle down in the middle of the table. “On the house ladies.” He was chuckling as he went back behind the bar while the rest of us cheered and started banging on the table while I took the first pull from the bottle before passing it over to Keres. We passed the bottle around, everyone beaten and bloodied up, grinning despite the scuffs and blood and bruising.

“At this rate, we’ll need another one Cy.” I called over to the elven man who just shook his head, laughing, and I took another long drink from the bottle while everyone started banging on the table with their hands again. “You know, I gotta say, that was a lot of fun. Girls night was an absolute success.” I was looking at my girls, grinning from ear to ear, everyone chiming in with their own agreements.

“So, anyone wanna tell me why we got called down here by the guards?” 

Birdie and the guys came walking in and Val took one look at them before looking at us. “Grab the bottle and SCATTER!” She bellowed, everyone leaping into action and bolting out the side door, laughing as the guys swore and ran after us. Girls night was definitely a success and I couldn’t wait for the next one.

Antagonistic

Summery: Rune Lavellan has to play mediator to her friend, Briar Tabris, and her own boyfriend, a clone commando named Spooks.

**I snagged the idea from the tiktok made by Panda Redd for Damian Wayne and Jason Todd. It was too fitting for Briar and Spooks’ relationship to pass up**

The yelling was what had me coming into the room to see what was going on this time with my vhenan and my friend Briar. Those two were constantly at each other’s throats almost as much as he and my sister’s boyfriend, Pumpkin, were.

“You arrogant, evil, little bitch!” Spooks shouted from where was standing in my living room, arms crossed over his broad chest. Lucifer and Pumpkin were watching the show unfold, Pumpkin giggling maniacally as he held Hally in his lap.

“You immature, self obsessed, cry baby!” Briar spat right back, her hands on her hips and fangs bared angrily as she stared at Spooks like she was trying to make him spontaneously combust into flames.

“Guys, hey, maybe we should calm down -” I began, sighing when they kept going, completely ignoring me as they continued to bark at each other. Why couldn’t they just get along for once?

“Why Jack decides to put up with you at all is beyond me -”

“Everything is beyond you, Spooks, you’re an imbecile! Maybe some of your brain was left behind in the last explosion caused by those two!” Briar bellowed, pointing at Pumpkin and Hally. I winced, hissing from between my teeth at the insult slung his way; this was going to get uglier, I just knew it.

“Guys, seriously. Luci, Pumpkin, you two wanna step in here?” I looked at the other two commandos, who shook their heads like ‘no way’. Some help they were.

“At least I have a family who cares about me and not some throwaway clan who booted me as soon as they found out about the half Fae thing, unlike your bitch ass!” Spooks growled at her and I could see her rear back, anger blazing in her eyes.

“Oh yeah? Well at least I had a mother who loved me. What about you, you test tube try hard?” She hissed through clenched fangs, lip curled into a sneer as she glared angrily at the man.

“Guys…” I was biting my lip anxiously and even the others were starting to get a little tense now, watching Spooks carefully to see just what he was gonna do next. His hands curled into fists at her words, jaw clenched tight and ready to throw down physically.

“Oh, so you wanna fucking take it there?” He snarled viciously and she squared up, positioning herself for a fight.

“Oh we already took it there bitch boy.”

“You don’t fucking want this, you little blood sucking gargoyle.”

“What’re you gonna do? Hang me up on a high hanging branch that I can get free from in less than a minute?”

“Fuck, Spooks, please - please don’t,” I think I knew what was coming next and it was going to make Briar absolutely flip her fucking shit. I braced myself for the oncoming implosion about to happen as Spooks took a step forward and leaned in so he was at her level, green eyes narrowed angrily.

“No, no, no, okay, we’re going there. Top this you little shit: I actually have a purpose other than being a little twerp who does nothing but leech off her partner.”

“I-” Briar recoiled at that, jaw dropping in shock, tears welling in her eyes, and everyone got really quiet, really fast.

“Ohhhh no…” I hissed, wincing. He really had to take it there, didn’t he?

“Matter of fact, fuck it, I don’t have anything better to do right now, so I’m gonna go talk to Jack about this.” Spooks had a smug look on his face and I watched as time seemed to slow as Briar’s hands curled into fists and she dove for him.

“Spooks, wait-” I tried to give him a heads up just as Briar’s fist connected with his stomach, knocking the wind from him before she stormed out the door, tears running down her cheeks. “I tried to warn you. And you didn’t listen.” I winced, helping him sit down on the couch.

“I’m gonna go check on Briar, that was pretty rough,” Hally murmured before popping up from Pumpkin’s lap and went outside to find her.

“You two need to apologize to each other. Both of you are in the wrong here.” I told him with a sigh, shaking my head in disgust and walked out after Hally, needing a few moments away from the group to recollect myself. Those two were going to be the death of me.
