    Summary

    “There’s…” he gestures. The bedchamber is spacious and well-appointed, with heavy brocade curtains over the windows and silk sheets on the bed. Even so, it appears that Ashur has failed to notice one glaring fact about the room.

    Ashur’s gaze follows his gesture, but comprehension doesn’t seem to be dawning.

    “Only one bed, Ashur,” Tarquin finishes.

    Summary

    A soulmates fic.

    Losing the words had hurt. The ritual burned hot enough to melt the words down into nothing but scar tissue. It was a piece of his future gone up in smoke. Fate interrupted but the legal system. His stupid dumbass match had killed somebody or joined the Venatori or become a monk or something and now Tarquin was probably never going to meet them.

    Summary

    While out together in Treviso, Maeve and Viago are surprised by a Venatori attacker. When Viago quickly dispatches the assailant, Maeve discovers a new admiration for his skills.

    Summary

    Tarquin has know Ashur for years, and yet he hardly actually knows the man outside the Shadow Dragons, and he certainly has no idea who is really beneath the Viper's mask. That doesn't stop him from taking a wild guess here and there.

    A simple, off-handed joke about Ashur's true identity, however, changes the course of their professional relationship and puts their personal relationship and strong, undeniable bond to the test.

    Summary

    “When you go to Kirkwall, I want to come with you.”

    Evelyn placed the reports on her desk slowly, his words and the implications sinking in. She turned to him, her smile faded and eyes narrowed.

    “You do?” She asked carefully. “You want to come with me to Kirkwall?”

    Her hesitation wasn’t surprising. Of the long nights they’d spent talking in the dark, wrapped in one another where it was safest, he’d said more than once he never intended to return. He’d foolishly declared himself healed; there was no need to open old wounds.

    But even stitched together, a wound could still be infected. Sometimes reopening to clean out the rot was the only way forward.

    When Inquisitor Evelyn Trevelyan is invited to Kirkwall by Sebastian Vael on a diplomatic visit, Cullen realises the only way he'll close that chapter of his life is to go back and face it for himself.

    How much is a peaceful future worth opening old wounds?

    Summary

    “Quin—” Ashur starts, and then stops.

    Tarquin looks up when he doesn’t continue, an eyebrow raised. “You going to finish that sentence? Or am I meant to guess?”

    Ashur’s cheeks heat and he fights the instinct to look away. Nothing Quin said should cause this reaction in him and yet. He steels himself, and just asks. “You… practice on the roof often?”

    ---

    Ashur stumbles upon Tarquin training, discovers he's the subject of a bet, and is bullied into looking after himself.

    Summary

    Tarquin would never consider himself self-conscious, just pragmatic. It's an easy way to approach everything, including sleeping with the Imperial Divine. Which he does. Often.

    Summary

    He handed over the box of food to Ashur. The weirdness of it didn’t take up as much space when it was just the two of them. He was just Ashur. He had these two larger than life personas, the Viper and the Divine, but right now, with his mask off and a box of curry balanced in one hand, he was just Ashur.

    A prompt fic that got out of hand of two people sharing food in a variety of situations as they slowly figure out how they fit together.

    Summary

    Tarquin gets hit with an amnesia spell and the last bloody year of his life is gone. Trying to pick up the pieces, he makes assumptions that don't come back to bite him in the arse whatsoever.

    Contains: a confrontation with a sloth demon, Tarquin getting his arse handed to him, an ex-Venatori blood mage hell-bent on solving this problem, and a very confused Ashur—not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    At last, he said, “And what would you offer in return?”
    Rook didn’t blink. “Mine.”
    That pulled a quiet breath from him. Not a laugh. Just… breath.
    “You want a trade.”
    “Blood for blood.”

    An AU one-shot where Lucanis is a reclusive vampire and Rook is a researcher desperate for answers.

    He was trying to talk about it. He usually didn't let anyone so much as mention it, even as the shadows under his eyes deepened and his steps faltered and he coughed black into handkerchiefs he burned as soon as they were used.

    Or: five times Ashur tries to get Tarquin to accept he's dying, and one time he doesn't have to.

    Summary

    There were still a few fires burning here and there. Still handfuls of civilians being guided to healers and places to stay other than the ruins of their homes, murmuring to each other as they moved. Still Venatori and demons lurking in the darker corners, waiting to be flushed out.

    But as Tarquin stared out a window, watching rain splatter against the balcony of one of the still-standing Shadow Dragon safehouses, he couldn’t hear any of it.

    Just the rain, his own soft breathing, and the voice of a Warden behind him.

    “Breathe in.” She murmured. Tarquin’s own chest lifted, but he didn’t turn to see if her patient had listened like he was supposed to. “Hold it, just like that.”

    -

    Post-Elgar'nan's defeat, after nearly losing each other, Tarquin and Ashur's relationship changes; they find their footing together in the aftermath.
