Summary
Of all of the inane things Commander Cullen could have said, “you’re not like other mages” found its home right at the top of the Unofficial Greatest Hits List of Shitty Things he had said to the Herald since she’d arrived in Haven three months ago — a seemingly insurmountable feat. At least no one could accuse him of half-assing things. Cullen gave a hundred and ten percent to literally everything.
The worst part about the entire thing was, it had been intended as a compliment.
———
A collection of one-shots depicting key moments leading up to the relationship between tiny Inquisitor Damiana Lavellan and the esteemed Commander Cullen Rutherford.

Summary
“Is it me? It’s me, isn’t it? Has the novelty finally worn off? Or did you realize that you want something different?”
“No!” Ed yelped, too fast, too loud. “No. It’s not you, Al. It’s never you, never—”
“Then what is it?!”
Ed looked at him now— really looked. His eyes stung, full of frustration, fear, and something Al had only ever seen a handful of times; genuine gut-wrenching grief.

Summary
“You ever think about how far the light we’re seeing has traveled? Some of those stars aren’t even there anymore. They burned out thousands of years ago, but the light’s still coming.”
“I think about that a lot,” Ed admitted. “Like… if something that far away can still leave something behind that reaches us, what does that mean for us? For people? As a whole, I mean?”
Written for the Elricest Love Event 2025.

Summary
“I do not want the cat.” Al took a long, overly casual sip of his drink and rolled his eyes. “Besides, the game’s rigged. See the barrels?” He tipped his cup to point with the straw. “They’re weighted, the sights are off, and they use old BBs. It’s a scam. You taught me that.”
Ed’s eyes narrowed, not at the booth—but at him. “You gonna call Shenanigans?”
Al pretended not to hear, pointedly walking away toward the next row of stalls and away from Ed, who lingered behind.
In which Al yearns, and Ed provides.

Summary
Jon doesn’t want to trust his coworkers. He can’t. But after being cursed by a Leitner to obey any command given to him, he might have to.
[I got too busy to finish turning my outline into prose, so the last two chapters are bullet point not!fic. My outlines are casual but fairly detailed; they make for a different reading experience than finished prose, of course, but not an unenjoyable one in my opinion. They successfully finish telling the story I set out to tell, so I consider this fic complete.]

He is lungfuls of ash and char-edged smoke; he is the skeletons the fire leaves behind. Broken glass. Blood in the sand. He’s remnants, now. Fragments of the consequences. That’s all.
