03 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
When Maeva Hawke fled from Ferelden to Kirkwall, the last thing she expected was for her life to change so drastically. Not just because she and her family have nothing to her name, nor because of the strange group of friends she's ended up with...but because of the odd, kind-hearted Warden mage that constantly plagues her thoughts.
And as tensions between mages and templars in Kirkwall begin to rise, Maeva finds that, no matter what, she and her friends are always at the centre. And her heart may not survive everything she will have to endure.
A novelisation of Dragon Age II with heavy focus on the Fem!Hawke/Anders romance.

Summary
Tale as old as time - woman pulls heist, woman loses friends and credibility, woman ends up alone with a Night City Legend erasing her identity and replacing it with his own. Not by my choice, I'd add. Things seemed manageable for V alone until they weren't anymore, and she found herself on a path that put her in front of Detective River Ward. She's thankful she met the badge, and I'm just thankful she waited to fuck him 'til after he changed careers.
V never fucking listens to me, but maybe this time... it'll turn out better than I'm expecting it to.
◾◾◾
A novelization of V and River's storyline as well as expanding on the unique relationship between Johnny and V (no romance). Including some original content/missions, and eventually, an original ending. Semi-weekly updates from here on out!-

Summary
Sakura Haruka knew two things for certain:
1. He hated packs and all that they stood for. They were either the strong oppressing everyone else, or the weak banding together to appear strong (and then oppressing everyone else).
2. It was better if the world thought he was a beta.He didn't see any reason for those truths to change when he came to Furin. His classmates might prove him wrong.

Summary
“You don’t have any particular purpose in this world. For that, you must find your own. Please live your new life as you see fit.”
A slow life away from bothersome people. It was exactly what he’d asked for, yet he could not find himself abiding by it. In such a colorful world teeming with magic and energy, there was no shortage of tasks to complete for Ryo’s peaceful isolated comfort in the Rondo Forest. He was fascinated everyday, such as one might be in a forest of mysteries with curious water magic licking at their fingertips.
Assassin Hawks. The Dullahan. Lewin, the Lord of Dragons.
There was so much to learn and so much to do. He often fought for his life, yet he enjoyed every moment of it. How peculiar.
And yet despite everything, Ryo was just a little bit lonely…
Until some poor water-logged sod washed up half-dead on his shore.
...
Aka, an Abel-focused reimagining in a universe where Ryo holds tighter to him than anyone else. Good luck, Abel!

In Exile: Act I, 9:31 Dragon by Byronical
Fandoms: Dragon Age (Video Games), Dragon Age - All Media Types, Dragon Age II
17 May 2026
Tags
Summary
The Fifth Blight was beaten back by the heroes of Ferelden - King Alistair Therin, Warden Carys Mahariel, and Warden Martin of Highever. With the breaking of the Blight came the breaking of the fellowship - and some who survived wish they hadn't. Martin, warden no longer, finds himself exiled to Kirkwall.
Resigned to a fate of obscurity, Martin somehow finds unexpected notoriety in his exile... through a certain woman named Hawke.
This is a novelization of Dragon Age II. Expect moderate AU with extrapolation, clarification and some addition to both the story and lore of Dragon Age II in order to better tell its tale. Changes to the deep lore are minimal, but expect most events to play out differently than they did in game. Martin's origin is unique from any in Origins.

Summary
Zenitsu staggered through the forest, each step being a struggle against the crushing weight of the unconscious body he clung onto. His legs trembled, threatening to collapse; he didn't even know where he was heading—toward the small bustling town just down the seemingly endless path? No—there was nothing but darkness surrounding them, the realization no one was awake by trying to gauge out any sounds that might've indicated if someone, anyone, could’ve been close enough to offer a helping hand was futile. However he couldn’t falter, not at Kaigaku’s expense.
——What happens when family isn’t set in stone? Not blood related—nor have they ever had the brotherly instinct to love. It’s terrifying when one has the strength to crush you if they wanted
Or; what if Zenitsu and Kaigaku were the ones in Tanjiro and Nezuko’s shoes?

Summary
Alola is so beautiful. Selene and Elio have come to it hoping for a new lease on life away from the dreariness of Kanto. But Lillie and Hau may help them discover Alola's beauty is only skin-deep--or is it? Part of the Pokémon Retold series, but designed to be read as a standalone story. A retelling of Pokemon Sun/Ultra Sun.
NOTE: This story is OBSOLETE. I have been rewriting it and that story is being published under a new title. This story is being left up due to requests from readers and the fact I think it would be rude/disrespectful to delete all the comments and such people have been nice enough to leave. Please look for the new Ultra Sun story on my profile!

After the Battle of Hogwarts, the wizarding world craved nothing more than to move on from the horrors of war. However, the universe had darker plans: a plague was coming. A new strain of vampirism spread like wildfire, forcing society into a desperate lockdown.
Three years after the first infection was recorded, Hermione tries to rebuild a sense of normalcy. But her life is upended when Draco Malfoy is caught attempting to flee the country while under house arrest. To avoid a return to Azkaban, he strikes a desperate bargain with the Ministry.
Hermione Granger—now the wizarding world's leading Dark Artifact specialist—is dispatched to Malfoy Manor to catalog its dangerous contents. She expected to face cursed relics and a bitter rival; she did not expect her new housemate to be hiding a dark secret more dangerous than any object in the manor. -
