Summary
Welcome to the world of Dishonored! The main plot is happening elsewhere, but if you read all these books and notes you find, you might learn something new about the world and the people in it.
Possibly things you didn't want to know.
Definitely things those involved wouldn't want you to know.
(Snippets of recordings, newspaper articles, letters and what-have-you written in-universe. Inspired by my own playthroughs of the game, questions I have about plot points, and just the general dark hilarity of the world the developers created)

Summary
Goofiness and nerdyness that rhymes. Sometimes, you just need to get a ridiculous idea out of your system. Old and new parodies and riffs to stretch my atrophied writing muscles, I make no promises as to the quality or merits of these pieces. Read at your own risk. Context included where available.
Absurdity Guaranteed (TM).

The Getaway by WaywardLass for Fen_Assan

Summary
This is a one-shot birthday fic for the magical Fen Assan. This fic is based on a true account of some sneaky photo-taking of a man who resembled a certain handsome Tevinter mage with epic fashion taste... What if it wasn't just a look-alike?... Fluff, silliness, and meta moments abound...

Summary
And there she was: a lovely contradiction of everything dark and base he believed about humanity looking him in the eye and challenging him to change. Such a chance did not offer itself too often anymore. His expression softened for the first time since she had arrived.
"I think I might like you."

Summary
Returning home from a tough deployment just in time for the holidays, the 141 are embraced by the familiarity of those who are left behind when they deploy. Their friends, families, and homes. Camaraderie is not only built between soldiers, but also between the people who give them support when they need it most.
As they temporarily return to civilian life, they each face their own individual challenges. Captain Price struggles to find the balance between being a soldier and being a husband and father, Soap feels alone in a crowded room full of family, Gaz stresses about the future and who he leaves behind, and Ghost's battles are, more often than not, with his own mind.
A character study into the private lives of the 141.

Summary
"Kalevala is a desert planet?" Shmi asks as they drop out of hyperspace, and Kalevala comes fully into view. She sounds surprised, and Jango glances at her. He had taken the pilot seat, and Shmi had once again been assigned as co-pilot, with Arla taking the comm station, but she was walking up to join them.
"More like a toxic wasteland," Arla says and leans on the back of Shmi's chair. "Kalevala never really recovered after the Dral'Han."
Shmi looks back at Arla. "The what?" Her comprehension of Mando'a has improved with impressive speed and staying with Sana, and his clan has only helped, but she was still new to the language.
"The Annihilation," Janog translates, and he turns to smile bitterly at Shmi. "Or as the Republic likes to call it: the Mandalorian Excision."
"The orbital bombardment," Shmi says in a horrified voice. "It destroyed the planet."
--
Jaster and the Haat'ade finally get to Kalevala for the meeting with the Old Clans and The New Mandalorians. There are political scheming, impassions speeches, and partying. So much partying.
Obi-Wan on the other hand is on a mission with Qui-Gon where he makes meets new people, makes new friends and learns new lessons.
