Kethriellehide bio
 Author has written 18 stories for Mass Effect, Dragon Age, and Star Wars. Sorry for the long absence. I've been busy (and lazy) lately. Currently, I'm working on a KOTOR II story, because that is a game which deserves waaaay more love than it gets. Thank you to everyone who reads and comments on my stories - I love to hear from you! I sincerely apologize to everyone who likes and wishes for more from the much neglected The Spectre. I am very stuck on how to get it to where I want it to go. Maybe someday. Lately I've been enjoying the excellent and quickly growing collection of Dragon Age Inquisition stories. You know, when I'm not busy *playing* Inquisition. I love the Solas stories, and keep hoping for something fantastic about the Inquisitor and Iron Bull. I mostly enjoy stories that could be described as "historical fiction:" not really changing the story, but adding useful eddies and explorations. You know, things that *might* be there if only you looked hard enough. :-) |

Improvised Explosions by starlightarcher reviews
Take one alluring drell assassin, mix with one enticing human warrior. Douse generously with sexual tension, add a pinch of necessity; stir then stand back and await fireworks. Warning: Recipe promises to be explosive.

A Day in the Life by red lilies reviews
It was a good day when Primarch Victus didn't have to deal with turian politics or Commander Shepard's antics. It was a bad day when he had one. There was no word for both.

Collision Course reviews
If the neighbors snickered to themselves about the not-terribly-attractive man with his much younger wife, well, it was an old enough story that their amusement quickly passed. No one suspected that he might be a Tevinter Magister, running from a world he could no longer live in, starting a new life in Ferelden. Why would they? An AU history for femHawke and Fenris.

Unexpected Effects reviews
Following the battle for Meridian, Ryder gets assigned as liaison to the Resistance. She isn't thrilled. Evfra is seriously annoyed. Moshae Sjefa is determined that they'll both learn something.

Side Effects reviews
Ryder needs to convince Evfra of how much she cares for him, before he pushes her away as too much of a risk. A companion to Unexpected Effects, takes place directly after Chapter 4. Stuck over here because it's more feelings-y than humor-y.

Marked By Magic reviews
What is going on behind that mild mannered apostate hobo mask Solas wears? It slips from time to time, though, and when he talks to the Inquisitor at the veil fire torch, it's gone for good. A story with mostly short chapters, from Solas' POV. This is a gift for an AO3 reader who left lovely comments on Echoes.

Echoes Forward reviews
Solas is being frustrating, the Inquisition is being demanding, so Lavellan decides to take some time for herself. She explores the Fade, trying to find memories such as Solas has told her about, and finds Fen'Harel in an unexpected place. The "present day" parts of this story take place shortly after Solas' infamous fade kiss. The "past" parts take place after Fen'Harel's great d

Still Waters reviews
She didn't remember him, but as the memories slowly came back, she could tell something was wrong. He had joined her again so easily, but she couldn't just ignore the feeling that there was something painful lurking beneath his calm acceptance. For everyone else who melts a little whenever Bao-Dur says, "Yes, General?" A Bao-Dur/Fem Lightside Exile story.

Second Chance reviews
This is a sequel to A Chance Encounter. That story does stand alone, but I couldn't resist more Victus/FemShep fun. This starts after the Collector base, but before Arrival, and continues into ME3. It's also drifting farther into AU with each chapter, because I cannot resist Victus.
