    Summary

    If her team saw her now, she’d never live it down. But this wasn’t about pride—it was about necessity.

    Solas stopped abruptly, turning to face her. His sharp, piercing gaze caught hers, and for a moment, Rook hesitated. Her breath faltered under the weight of his scrutiny. Slowly, she dropped her eyes to the ground and released her grip on his cloak.

    “I swear fealty to you,” she said. “I will be your blade, if you’ll allow it. I know I’ve kept things from you—my story, even my name—but I swear that whatever knowledge I have, it could aid your cause. This I swear.”

    She raised her eyes to meet his again, and to her surprise, Solas’s composure cracked. His mouth fell slightly ajar, and he stared at her as if she had just done something unfathomable.

    Without waiting for a response, Rook drew her blade from its sheath.

    “What are you—” Solas began, but the words faltered as she sliced the edge of the blade across her palm. A sharp hiss escaped her lips as blood seeped over her skin.

    or

    Rook ends up in the past in the middle of Solas’ rebellion. Not sure how she got there, she decides to ally herself with the Dreadwolf in hopes of somehow changing the future.

    Summary

    Luka wants to build a park in Sandrock and enrolls his friends' help.
    Stev, now professor Luo's assistant, comes to Sandrock to help with the huge project.

    The story follows Stev and his developing relationships with the townsfolk, especially with a particular saloon owner.

    Owen thought he was past the events of that evening during the Duvos attack but the memories resurface after coming face to face one more time with the soldier that took care of him that time. Could that same former soldier help him fully get rid of the nightmares?

    ~~~

    This story is a direct sequel / spin off to [The Spy], which focused on Luka, the builder, and covered the main events of the game, with some extra bits. I recommend reading that one first to get familiar with the characters.
    [A Rose By Any Other Name] takes place post end game.
    ~~~

    Some cannon divergence (i.e. Luka, the builder was a Duvos military technician and spy/double agent) but the main events of the game are covered.

    No major trigger warnings. Unlike [The Spy], this story does not have as much violence and dark themes. There will be smut.

    Summary

    ~~~

    Luka is a reluctant technician on the Whale, a Duvos warship executing a secret mission near ancient ruins in the Sandrock city state territory. A chance encounter with the local monster hunter and ruin diver sets in motion events that will change his life forever.

    ~~~

    Woke up one night during a thunderstorm and my brain suddenly went "Hey! Hey! You know what? What iiiiif... What if the builder WAS a Duvos spy?"

    Some alterations to that setting (you'll see along the way), some drafting later and here we are.

    Trigger warning for: gun violence, some other types of violence, more mature themes and some smut. Also, some major character death. This may not be a good fic for Pen fans. Will try to provide more concrete trigger warnings for more serious situations at the beginning of the chapters.

    The overall timeline is the same as the game but there will be a few deviations from canon to accommodate the concept.

    Not beta read, English not my native language and my writing is nowhere near as good as other authors' on this site but yolo.

    Any comments, criticism, kudos, feedback is appreciated.

    Summary

    Inspired by how often I’ve restarted the game and the entertaining thought that my player characters are just really confused about all the time travel. (WARNING: Major spoilers starting in the first chapter.)

    Kat's the newest builder in Sandrock... but she's pretty sure she's been here before. There's no way she could dream up the future, so how did she get here? And what should she do now? People always told her it was a bad idea to fight Fate but she couldn't just stand by and let it all happen again... right?
