    Summary

    This is all Curly’s damn fault, Varric thinks.

    Blaming Cullen for his insistence on a rematch is preferable to admitting that Varric is in any way responsible for this dangerous situation. Varric doesn’t remember their last game of Wicked Grace deteriorating like this, and they were betting with nonexistent money and playing for clothes then too. The problem isn’t keeping his own clothes. The problem isn’t even Josephine’s monopoly on the game or that he's been forced to see Cullen’s pectorals again. The problem sits at the far end of the table, glaring at her cards, reduced to a loose, thin undershirt and those damnably tight leggings.

    “I will call,” Cassandra announces on her turn.

    Summary

    Thedas is at war. The Conclave is destroyed. Divine Justinia is dead, and with her, the world’s last hope for peace. Until out of the ashes stumbles a lone survivor…

    “The two of us are the only people who don’t believe this whole ‘Herald of Andraste’ bullshit.’
    Cassandra said nothing. Varric rounded on her, horrified.
    “You’re kidding! Seeker, tell me you don’t—”
    “What better explanation do you have, Varric?” she replied, voice sharp and defensive.
    “Anything! Any explanation is better! I am not anyone’s saviour. This mark is just...just some shiny shit from the Fade.”

    He’s not the hero they expected. He’s definitely not the hero they wanted. But Varric Tethras, Herald of Andraste, might just be the hero they’re all stuck with.

    Oh well. At least it’ll make for a good story.

    Summary

    But it was Esca’s hand, gripped tight in his hair and Esca’s blade on his throat that woke Marcus from the numbed nightmare he’d been stumbling through. He could feel the man’s thigh pressed hard against his back, the slight tremor in the hand that held him stretched impossibly tight, the blade cold and kissing up against his throat, and suddenly Marcus felt blessedly clear-headed

    Summary

    McQueen resolutely does not scream when Wang waves some incense around his head, peers into a crystal ball, hucks a handful of salt at him and concludes there's nothing to be done.

    "Just have to wait it out," Wang says. "Should be over sometime between 48 hours and 48 weeks."

    "Weeks?" McQueen repeats.

    "Probably hours," Wang allows grudgingly.

    "Probably? That's such a broad range!"

    "That's magic for you. Anyway, your total comes to $258.25. Tax included, tip optional but encouraged. Will you be paying by cash or credit today?"
