    Summary

    Alternate world where Sophie never turned old, and the flamboyant Wizard Howl has been galavanting around Market Chipping for some years now. The young ladies are no longer afraid of him, but Sophie at least is very wary, especially since every time he's around trouble is not far behind (sometimes taking the form of the witch of the waste.)

    Still, she has grown somewhat fond of the wizard, but she knows more than to listen to his flowery words. She has more sense than that.

    But when Sophie bites off more than she can chew by agreeing to plan the Market Chipping Winter Solstice Ball, and becomes quite by accident (by way of magic) the most wanted lady in town, Howl becomes more trouble than he's ever been before!

    (Also known as: Howl has a longtime crush on Sophie, but hasn't given up being a flirt! But starts to panic once Sophie becomes super popular! Now he's trying desperately to either foil the other men's plans, or woo Sophie! And of course Sophie doesn't believe a word he says lololol)

    NOTES: Howl is closer to Sophie's age in this version. Currently, Sophie is 23, and Howl is 25

    Summary

    "Sophie," Howl said nervously, "Are you alright? You're being very quiet. It's unsettling."
    Sophie bit her lip. "I'm alright. It's just- I don't really know how to talk to you when we aren't arguing." Howl gave a snort of laughter. "No, really, Howl," She turned to face him. "It doesn't seem a promising start for- for-"
    "Happily ever after?" Howl's eyes, not at all like glass marbles, held hers. "I wouldn't worry about that. I'm sure you'll be able to think of something new for us to argue about, once you apply yourself to the task."
    "That's not what I-"
    "Besides," Howl continued smoothly, tucking a red-gold curl behind her ear, "Talking is overrated."

    In which there is a lot of fluff. And bickering.

    Summary

    She feels like he’s peeling every layer of her being, one by one by one. And when he gets to her bones, he’ll find something she’ll never be able to run away from.

    “…you,” the stranger says, his hands flexing into fists. Unclenching again. “You are…”

    Gideon holds her breath. She doesn’t know why she thinks so, but it seems to her that Harrow does as well.

    The corner of the man’s lips twitches up in a smile.

    “You’re the spitting image of your mother.”

    ---

    Or: what if Pyrrha rescued Gideon from the Ninth as a child?

    Summary

    That stopped the rogue in his tracks, and he turned again to face Varric who was rubbing his hand over his face. There was that tension again, in his chest and in his shoulders, and it dawned on him that this was Hawke, his best friend. If he were to screw this up, if something were to happen--he couldn’t handle not having Hawke in his life. Varric realized he had to make a decision, and that there was only one way he might not totally wreck his relationship with Hawke.

    He waved his friend over, “Sit, sit down. Wait, no. Grab that whiskey from over there, and come sit down. I’ve got a story to tell you and I don’t feel like being sober when I tell you.”

    Summary

    Three weeks into their delightful slog across Westeros, during yet another charming day of shitting in the woods, eating half-raw squirrel, and trudging his feet bloody, the single most dour and uninteresting woman Jaime had ever met in all of Westeros stopped in the middle of a field, drew a deep breath, and said, “When I was seven, my aunt came to visit with her son. My father told me that as the daughter of the house, it was my duty to show hospitality to my guests and to be gracious to them. I wanted to make him proud. So for three weeks, I let my cousin follow me around and talk to me about spiders.”

    Summary

    He can’t bang his head against the wall to make them go away, even if he wants to, because he’d draw attention on himself; he doubts that asshole of his father would take this kindly, and he really is in no shape to argue with him now.

    There’s only one thing he can do.
    He calls Jamie.
