Summary
An AU based on the American and French Revolutions and a late 18th Century aesthetic. Hawke/Anders-centric but all listed ships get their due.
When Ferelden won its independence, rebuilding took an unexpected turn. Maric truly didn’t want to be king, so he urged the people to vote for General Loghain Mac Tir to lead a Republic. Now, as Ferelden faces a Blight, most of Thedas expects its radical experiment to fail against that threat. Its leaders must defeat attacks from the outside and, unfortunately, the inside.
Meanwhile, in Kirkwall, nobles and clerics still oppress the population: Mages, elves, regular people—all are crushed. But a group of would-be rebels have taken inspiration from Ferelden. They include a physician/apothecary who writes radical pamphlets and is secretly a mage, a fierce elven scholar trying to raise the Alienage, the son of a viscount killed by the Templars, and others. Maric, his elven wife, and their son soon travel there to help.
The three Hawke siblings fall in with this group, each one finding love and a place in the fight. But in the face of profound challenges to the revolution, can anyone prevent a terrible outcome?

Summary
“Cada parte de mí está equivocada. My mind, my heart, even my gift, it’s all wrong.” Bruno spat bitterly as he hugged his knees. Tears were streaming down his face now. “The worst part is, I don’t know how to be anything but… this.”
“Bruno.” Wilfredo pulled him close. Desperately trying to reach the man through the shell he had formed around him.
“I just, I just wanted to pretend, just for a moment, that it was ok. That I could just be this. That it was ok to just be this.” Bruno confessed.
“Listen to me.” Wilfredo demanded. “I would never change a single thing about you. You are perfect as you are.”
Bruno stared at him dumbfounded but said nothing. Wilfredo let out a tired sigh. He loosened his grip and rested his forehead on Bruno’s. Trembling against the rage he struggled to contain. This burn, it hurt, but it kept him alive. He needed Bruno to feel it.
“I know it feels like the world has no place for you. Por favor, Te lo ruego, don’t ever give up looking for one. If you can’t find a place then make one, pero nunca te rindas.”
Wilfredo opened his eyes again to take in those shimmering emeralds. “This world was made for all of us. You have a right to be here. Never doubt that.”

Summary
“You’re kind,” Crowley said with another small laugh. Aziraphale looked over at him. His gaze softened. “Y’know, people like that sort of thing. Kind people.”
Aziraphale nodded. Crowley felt something strange stirring in his stomach, and he wondered if perhaps he’d had a little too much to drink. He was beginning to get the urge to do something stupid. To reach forward and take the angel’s hand. To trace the lines of his smile, and the creases of his eyes, and memorize what he looked like in case it was a long while before they saw each other again.
Whoa now, said the only logical part of his brain he had left, maybe it’s time to sober up.
Five times Crowley gave Aziraphale a gift on Valentine's Day, and one time it was the other way around.
