Olivia Trevelyan, The Iron Bull & Salise Lavellan enjoying some downtime between saving the world.

Salise belongs to my darling @diccix who has my whole heart ❤️

Their ongoing collection of onshots can be found right here on AO3!

Since I don't have any own content for @dapolyshipping week this time around I wanted to do a fic rec. These are the wonderful gifts I received for @arlathanxchange, both with poly content! I'm so lucky!

Thank you again for gifting me these! ♥

Rating: Explicit

Relationship: The Iron Bull/Cullen Rutherford/Solas

Summary: Cullen finds Iron Bull and Solas waiting in his room…playing chess?

A delightful short fic gleaning the beginning of (what I hope is) a building (and absolutely steamy) relationship.

Written by: @rosella-writes

Rating: Explicit

Relationship: The Iron Bull/Dorian Pavus/Solas

Summary: Solas shoots him another look over his shoulder. His eyes are bright under furrowed brows. “Do not assume I cannot see this ploy for what it is. Perhaps I want to remain upset with Dorian. Did you consider that, oh benevolent peacekeeper?”

Iron Bull shrugs. “Or you could fuck about it and stay mad. Makes no difference to me.”

Snarky mages, sub!Bull, feelings™, and hot smut. What more can you ask for?

It's like they both knew that I have been craving more Solas/Bull content in particular.

Me?👀 Drawing shameless Justhanders tentacle Fade sex?👀👀👀 Yeah it's more likely than you think ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Drawn as a gift for the lovely @laniardraws for the @dapolyshipping exchange💙 You can find the full (very NSFW!!) version on AO3 — Fade Nights

I was excited to be involved with the @dapolyshipping exchange this year, and had a blast writing two works for it! Here's what I whipped up:

I bleed applause (I'm fading slow): for @thefoxinboots

Rated: E for Extra Sexy

Relationships: Anders x Dorian x Solas

Summary: Dorian and Anders discuss sex magic with bated breath in the library, just above where Solas paints his frescoes. He pipes up to correct them. In which Solas teaches two young mages exactly how the Fade can work in their favor.

bones, blood and teeth erode: for @darethshirl

Rated: E for Extra Sexy (and Angsty)

Relationships: Solas x Desire Demon x Regret Demon

I was delighted to join in the @dapolyshipping fic exchange this year, because there is NEVER ENOUGH good polyamorous fic in the world.  (Check out the collection for dozens of great stories!)

I got an AMAZING and INCREDIBLY HOT gift from @dragonflies-and-katydids​:

Title: Reunion Pairing: Bull/Cullen/Isabela (with background established Bull/Cullen) Rating: Very E.  Note the tags for specific kinks (there are many, and they’re all delicious). Summary: Isabela is the last person Cullen expected to see in Skyhold, but since she's here, they might as well get re-acquainted.

I also wrote fic for MeganMoonlight:

Title: but you are the life I needed all along Pairing: Cole/Krem/Maryden Rating: Teen Summary: Cole, Krem, and Maryden find their happy ending together.  A modern AU.

Look who I found loitering outside," Bull's booming voice almost gave him a heart attack. 

Cullen had expected a swift right hook, but instead, the hulking qunari had put a firm though distinctly welcoming hand on his shoulder and dragged him inside.

"I-I was only there for a moment," he lied, certain the Inquisitor was about to dismiss him from his post... but she'd barely even registered his presence.

The @dapolyshipping exchange creator reveals were last night so I’m excited to finally be able to share which pieces were mine. Thank you so much to the organisers for hosting such a fun exchange! 💖

This Is Why We Fight 

A​nders/Male Hawke/Karl Thekla/Justice - T - 22,028 words - for @factorykat​

Anders and Wyatt Hawke have returned to Ferelden to do their part in aiding the Mage Rebellion there. At one of the rebel camps they come across a face Anders never thought he'd see again. He always believed that Karl had died when he never showed that night at the chantry. Now, Anders must come to terms with the realisation that his first love, who he thought he'd lost long ago, is still very much alive.

open my heart and let it bleed into yours

Anders/Male Hawke/Justice - E - 2744 words - for @ser-thirst-a-lot​

Being in love with the Fade spirit living in your head doesn't always make possession easier to navigate. But luckily for Anders and Justice, they have Hawke to soothe them when things get... messy.

you can hold my hand in the darkness, darlin

Anders/Jowan/Female Surana - T - 2382 words - for @venatohru

After fleeing Kirkwall, Anders finds himself back in Ferelden, where he is offered shelter by two familiar apostates.
