Of Elves and Humans: Redux by sundogsandrainbows

Summary
Trust is a delicate flower that needs to get nurtured and time to grow. Even more so love. A tale of two disparate Wardens forced together, of finding a way to overcome the distrust, and their own painful past in the time of the Blight.
Very in-depth, character-focused exploration of the Dalish origin/warden, of all DA:O companions, and their relationship dynamics during the Fifth Blight. Follows and expands on canon events; AU in some ways. Multiple POV's and pairings. Slow burn af.
This is a COMPLETELY new rewritten and revised version of my story, originally posted on Fanfiction.net. Please see the individual chapter notes for more information about what had been changed. Tags, Chapter Amount (rough estimate) and Rating are subject to change and will get updated with its further progress. Comments and feedback of any kind are very much appreciated :)

Summary
Sometimes, Stiles is tempted to ask Derek what he can smell, what he’s listening for. Wants Derek to tell him how he’s feeling, to identify these impulses, tugs under his skin that pull him this way and that. The thought sends this hot, sick thrill through him. He never asks.

Summary
The threads we weave through this waking Fade, twist and turn in ways not even the Old Gods could predict. Threads, tightly bound, unravel with ease while others are cut short before their pattern completes. But all find their place, in the end.
Stories and explorations for the in-between sections of the DA:O plot (read: fills in emotional gaps in dialogue.). Mostly follows the plot of the main game and will extend beyond the battle at Denerim. I love Zev/Cousland but I'm gonna make 'em work for it. Includes storylines from DA:O, the DLCs and dabbles in the tie-in novels.

Summary
"... well—it’s a bit of a leap from kissing to prancing about the flat fully nude, don’t you think?”
Sherlock looks predictably lost.
John takes a deep breath, and then lets out a long-suffering sigh. “Sherlock, how would you feel if you were sitting out here doing one of your bloody experiments, and I just waltzed out of the loo and started fixing myself breakfast completely starkers? Hmm…?”
Sherlock’s lips inch up at the corners into a pleased hint of a smile he can’t seem to suppress.
John rolls his eyes heavenward. When they light upon Sherlock again he is smiling in earnest, a smile that is all soft and sly around the edges, and not even trying to hide it’s flirtatious intent.
“Jesus Christ…” John mutters, and shakes his head, stares down at the wooden table top, suddenly having to fight an unexpected smile of his own.

“You have questions—about tonight, about Knightley.”
John shakes his head. “No. I only need to know what you want me to know.”
Sherlock stares. John is looking out the window at the city racing by. The snow is still falling. It’s beautiful. Strange he should notice that. Strange he should notice anything but John, when their fingers are touching like this, so many small points of contact.
“You remember what happened the last time you said you didn’t need to know anything about the past of someone who mattered to you?”

Gentle Hands (you are more than your trade) by Shadowmightwrite17
Fandoms: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types, The Witcher (TV)
28 Dec 2020
Tags
Summary
Geralt gently laid Jaskier's arm to rest and picked up the right one. He did the same range of motion tests. His right wrist preferred a straight position but resisted side-to-side or backward-forwards rotation. The socket of his thumb was swollen; his fingers preferred to curl in. The forearm muscles had the same lumpy tissue embedded in them as the left arm.
"A lot of musicians develop problems with their hands, but not until they're older," Jaskier whispered. His voice twisted, tears pooling in his eyes. "I'm barely in my twenties. I haven't even been playing the lute a full decade and this! This happens?!"
"It's not from age," which ended the rant before it fully began.
"It's not?"
"It's a repetitive motion injury. Anyone can get it, any trade, any age. Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Witchers."
(Just a little fic about how Geralt shows his friendship)

They fall asleep on the call again; Isu wakes up to an ended call and two messages from Khun:
“Your snoring is insufferable”, and then, “Delete this message or I will kill you.”

Khun calls that evening, like clockwork, and for every evening before Khun is set to board the Hell Train, Isu falls asleep to Khun’s slow, steady breathing.

(In Willing Sacrifice, by GeMerope)
I admit I forgot about this fic for a while, long enough for more than a dozen chapters to be posted. Returning to it now, I am pleased to say that it's even better than I remembered it being. Any work with a plot so compelling that I lose sleep in order to read it, is well-recommended in my book.
Waiting for Ch. 63+

large, sprawling, and aching
(Mal, Arthur, and everything that came after)//
Arthur knows, and it hurts like a fist to the gut, that if he met Mal now, he wouldn't tell her she had beautiful shoes, and he'd never let her touch his pocket square. They wouldn't have gone to New York or gotten drunk off of shitty champagne and kissed, sat up late into the night with each other. They're such different people now, and Arthur spares a moment to be grateful that as they have changed, they've left room for each other; he doesn't know what he'd do otherwise."Are you unhappy now?" Mal asks.
Arthur smiles for her. "No, Mal," he promises. "I'm fine. Don't worry."
She looks unconvinced, but Arthur is telling the truth.

Bookmarker's Notes
I keep coming back to this, it's just so lovely. It has this wonderful sense of melancholy to it that I absolutely adore.
The sharing of homesickness is such a nice thing, especially because they share it by wooing.
I don't know, the whole atmosphere just really gets to me, mostly because of the tenderness and the intimacy.
Seriously one of my favourite Fuchs for these two.
