I want to put a spotlight on @nerdlingwrites Dragon Age fanfic, Run Home. It has a lot of love on AO3 already, but you know what? She deserves more! She’s a fantastic and dedicated writer, and Run Home is my favorite Modern Thedas fic. Fair warning, the fic is rated explicit, is a WIP, and has some heavy emotional stuff going on right now. BUT! It has kid!Krem, dad!Bull, nerdlingwrites’ OC Dust is BFFs with some of the DA2 gang, cuddles, a Vivienne written like the empress and adopted Bull’s Tama that she is, and not to mention little Iron Chef and baseball player Krem.
Read it. Like it. Love it. Squeal over it. Cry over it. Just cover the full range of emotions over it.

The summary on AO3:
Dust Lavellan is pretty happy with her life - she tends bar at The Siren's Call, sleeps with whoever she wants, and isn't responsible for anyone's life but her own. At least, until some random kid stumbles out in front of her motorcycle one afternoon. A kid with a really hot dad...
The Iron Bull never expected to be a dad, let alone a single dad with an adopted 'Vint kid, but it's pretty much the best thing that's ever happened to him. Sure his sex life is a little limited, what with raising a kid, coaching a Little League team, and working full time. Until he comes home and finds a really hot elf eating cookies on the porch with his kid...
Eleven year old Cremisius "Krem" Aclassi wants two things - his Little League team to go to the World Series, and to grow up to be a chef. Okay, three things: he'd really like his dad to be slightly less of a huge dork around his new friend Dust. Why are grown ups like this? Can't they just kiss and get it over with already?
