Summary
“Dorian Pavus, at your service,” his bow may have missed the little flourish he was so fond of, but Dorian thought in these circumstances it may be excused. Good manners were all he had left, with his hopes and dreams gone up in flames right in front of his eyes just before he’d been transported here – and he would cling to this last shred of dignity he had left with everything he’d got to his name. And find out where he had landed.
The elf chuckled and stood up. “Esher Ingellvar, at your service. Especially when you also want to get out of this fucking place.”Aka
Rook falls through time just as Dorian suffers from Alexius' ritual. They both land in the worst universe to be stranded in. After they undo the ritual, Rook is stranded in Dorian’s timeline. With no place to turn to, he follows Dorian to Haven and later Skyhold. As a magical research assistant, Rook slowly falls in love with the charismatic Tevinter mage. What Rook doesn’t know is that more than one person is interested in his mysterious past in Skyhold, and not just for benign reasons.

Summary
The wooden door creaked ominously as it opened - like the screams of the drowning and bones snapping. The door itself told Astarion everything and nothing about who he'd soon be meeting with, who would own him. It was emblazoned with gold but dirty, uncared for, the delicate goldwork left to rot. Would that be his future – a decorative piece, left forgotten until he was nothing more than the husk of himself, an idea of beauty that could never return, groaning and screaming every second he was allowed to breathe?

Cazador sells Astarion off as a "bride" for durge. Durge turns out to be much different from what Astarion expected -

Summary
“The mouse smiled brightly: it outfoxed the cat!” he laughed, a deep chuckle that spoke of condescension rather than amusement. The right mood was imperative for a first impression after all.
“Then down came the claw, and that, love, was that.”
Sudden chuckles interrupted the well-planned dramatic silence. How dare they? A performance was a sacred art and not to be disturbed under any circumstances.
Ever.
“Did - did you practice that in front of the mirror?”

Project Elvhen: Expanding the Elvhen Language by FenxShiral
Fandoms: Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age II, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Dragon Age - All Media Types, Dragon Age (Video Games)

Summary
This is a project to create a conlang that will expand upon and deepen the Elvhen language that was created for the Bioware game series, Dragon Age. Elvhen, as it is used in the games, is a cipher, not a language. My goal is to create a complete conlang, or at least a simulated conlang, that other fans can use. The goal is to create a constructed language that is to Dragon Age what Sindarin and Quenya are to Lord of the Rings.
I do want to stress that this is a constructed language based upon the limited Elvhen we had encountered within the games. I am not using magical linguistic ninjitsu to "Figure out," the Elvhen language. In terms of the "official," language, consider this linguistic fan-fiction.
This specific work is a collection of my ongoing progress Posts, which you can find on my tumblr (Link below in the notes).

Summary
It’s the right day, but the year is all wrong, and Dream suspects that there’s something else not quite right even before he finds himself standing in front of the shuttered remains of the White Horse Tavern. Still, he’s chilled in a way he’s not accustomed to feeling, reminiscent of the hopeless, free-falling frost that climbed up his spine and inside his gut the day he was meant to meet Hob when he was imprisoned. And that’s what it is, he realizes, this cold feeling. Hopelessness.
Should Dream seek him out, would Hob welcome him as a friend, or turn his shoulder as he would on an intruder? It’s what he would deserve, Dream muses as he’s preparing to turn heel from the tavern’s closed gates, even though as he’s resigning himself to shame he’s also gearing up to make this his next mission, his next purpose: to find Hob Gadling.
Alternatively: Dream and Hob find each other in 2021, and see no reason why they have to wait centuries to see each other again. And again.

Summary
Harry doesn't care about Snape beyond having to sit detentions with the man despite being of age. He doesn't. He asks him out for a drink just to get out of detention. So what if it's... nice? So what if they become friends? So what if Snape *is* lonely?
It's not Harry's problem - at least not until he realises he's accidentally befriended the man, and just how much he cares for Snape.
Well, shit.

Summary
At the end of his life, Harry is given the chance to alter the course of the dark reality his son Albus and Albus' friend Scorpius create when they use a Time-Turner to save Cedric Diggory's life. With the hindsight bestowed by a lifetime as Auror, Head of the DMLE, husband, father, and friend, he will make very different choices as a seventeen-year-old wizard to try and save the people and the world he loves.
But if he has to do it all over again, simply defeating Voldemort won't be good enough: there's a never-ending scroll of tragedies to avert and one newly-installed Headmaster of Hogwarts to talk around (if he manages to get a word in edgewise before getting hexed). The good news is, as always: he's not fighting alone.
**This story contains major spoilers for Cursed Child and minor ones for Fantastic Beasts but does not require knowledge of either.**
