Well, it’s March, so here’s a collection of female PoV fics I’ve enjoyed recently. It’s far, far from an exhaustive list, and a bit scattershot, if I’m honest. I kept trying to cut it down to a reasonable length but it just kept getting longer.

Really my main criteria were: a) from a female character’s PoV and b) interesting. So now I’ve got a lovely collection of fics about mothers and sisters and aliens and warriors and royalty and survivors. Lots of survivors.

…apparently I’m bad with fluff fic, sorry.

( Cut for length: )

Title: an empty cage, if you kill the bird

Author: amurderof

Fandom: Dragon Age: Inquisition / Pet Shop of Horrors

Rating: PG-13 (sequel is NC-17)

Pairing: Dorian / Iron Bull

Warnings: murder investigations, background character death (including references to suicide), parental abuse

Other notes: AU, fusion, cops, mystery, supernatural, modern day

Length: 26k

Summary:

Detective Bull Hissrad of the Val Royeux Police Department finally gets a break in the spate of bizarre deaths across the city: everybody who’s ended up six feet under bought a pet from the absurdly-named Magister D’s Pet Shop in Vintown, and the vint who runs the place is just strange enough to be worth checking out.

(Or, that time Bull was kind of a lonely, grumpy cop trying to figure out if Dorian was an ancient dragon hell-bent on exacting vengeance on humanity by killing people one at a time via the pretty inefficient method of selling them pets... or if he was just lonely and grumpy too.)

Title: The Ashkaari from Par Vollen

Author: PeriPeriwinkle

Fandom: Dragon Age: Inquisition

Rating: PG

Pairing: gen, with background Dorian/Iron Bull

Warnings: some violence, body horror, enslavement

Other notes: original character, world-building, kid fic

Length: 6k

Summary: Imekari sometimes was ashamed of her horns; the other imekaris teased her and called her ox because of their unusual shape. But deep down she wanted to be proud of them, because her bearer's were wider and mightier, and he was proud of them for it.

Hissrad, his name was. Yes, she would be proud of them, just like he was, and she would grow big and strong and powerful to better serve the Qun.

Just like him.

Title: A Fire and a Conflagration

Author: iodhadh

Fandom: Dragon Age: Inquisition

Rating: NC-17

Pairing: Dorian/Iron Bull

Warnings: explicit sex (gay), BDSM

Other notes: poetry, love letters, pining

Length: 16k

Summary: At first, the Iron Bull is just writing poetry to Dorian because it's a fun way to tease him — he gets all huffy when he's pretending he doesn't think the lowbrow stuff is funny, and besides, he started it by making it a Vint-versus-Qunari thing. It's only fair for Bull to needle him a bit.

At first, Dorian is only writing back to Bull because he can't let him win. The pride of Tevinter's literary tradition (not to mention his own dignity) is at stake here, and he will not be beaten at metaphor by someone who thinks cattle-related puns are an appropriate way to seduce someone.

And that's all it is. At first.

Title: Quiet Spaces

Author: WritingEmi

Fandom: Dragon Age: Inquisition

Rating: R

Pairing: past Dorian/Felix, Iron Bull/Male Adaar, Iron Bull/Male Adaar/Dorian

Warnings: character death, spousal death, grieving, mentions of suicidal thoughts, use of safewords during sex, explicit sex (gay)

Other notes: dating, polyamory, slow burn, modern day au

Length: 90k, plus ongoing sequel

Summary: Dorian is trying to get back into dating, but his hopes and plans are derailed as he finds himself drawn in by a wonderful Qunari couple that he meets, Adaar and the Iron Bull.

Or, a modern Thedas fic where Dorian finds himself in the middle of a Qunari sandwich.
