Anonymous asked: Hello! So, I just got finished reading Rabbit Heart and I gotta say, it's probably my current favorite DAII fic. Everything just seems so perfect about it. Plus, tons and tons of Anders angst, which, in my opinion, is the best kind of angst. But I just have one tiny question! Is Carve going to make an appearance? Because I thought it had been hinted at, and I thought that maybe he was the...
I think it's a rule that every DA2 fic has to have...
Which is pretty amusing, when you consider the concept of “damnation” doesn’t exist anywhere in Thedas’ theology…

So Imma just gonna talk about OCs for a second...
… feel free to look away.
Rabbit Heart had a lot of OCs. Like, a lot of them. Like “I started making a list but then it got too long so I gave up” a lot. And I know it’s a bit… “not done” in fanfic, but I have to confess I kinda, um. Well. I kinda like OCs when they’re used in a certain context.
One of the blessings and curses of writing fanfic is...

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 13
From the Estate to the Pit.
Something was actually going to happen in this chapter, then it didn’t. Two shot-fake showdowns, though; lulz Dee srsly stop it.
Definitely on the home stretch; two or maybe three chapter to go, including the Really Real Actual Climax I swear this time foa’srs.

OMG it’s been, what? Nearly half a year? Uurgh, bad Dee.
Anyway, I apologise for the huge delay followed by the paucity of this chapter; I’m pretty much 116.49% sure tedious OC exposition was not what you’ve been waiting for for all this time, though this is setting up the fic’s climax, I swear.
Er… yeah. Anyway. Next chapter we’re back to the boys, and...

Fenris steals one of Carver’s lines from “Legacy” here. Also: Gore. I REGRET NOTHING!
Oh, and before you do anything else you absolutely must go check out this amazing piece of Black Beast art by Corbie. Seriously, go check it out right now because it’s awesome and heaps better than this chapter which will totally be here when you get back anyway. I promise.
… See?

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 9
The morning after, Anders finds himself in the unenviable position of being the responsible adult; Hawke reveals the Dark and Terrible (and Sexy) Secret of Fenris; and the trio make their way towards the Fortress of Ser Whatsit and the Order of the Unnecessary Badness.
Derp derp almost nothing happens here. Stupid filler chapter. Big thank you to anyone who’s managed to stick this story...

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 8
In caser anyone was paying attention, this is the chapter where the rating changed. Pretty much nothing of importance happens here, with the possible exception of some character exposition in the first thousand-odd words. You Have Been Warned.
Bonus material for this chapter!
Firstly, some bad sketches showing how Anders’ outfit works, just in case you were wondering. Secondly, since the...

The Pit throws a party, Fenris is chased by bees, and Anders makes bad life decisions. Again.
Hey, so what do I do when I’m not writing? I do bad fanart for my own writing, that’s what.
… lol.

On the way back from Pliska, the trio encounter some templars on the road. Obvious outcome is obvious…
Previous chapters have been edited slightly, too. Mostly to treat my chronic semi-colon cancer, as well as remove one sartorially-related continuity error and one time-slip in the close of the last chapter.
More music? You know I love it! Also, this is technically the end of Act I in...

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 4
Anders, Hawke and Fenris embark on a sidequest to fetch much-needed supplies for the Pit. Things end up being more complicated than expected which, in retrospect, should’ve been completely expected.
People with medical training may wish to skip large chunks of this, since I’ve taken some, uh, artistic licence with the pathology. Pretend it’s like magic or something. Also:...
defira85 asked: Oh hai Justice fangirl! There's never enough of us around, I am so happy to glomp on you! I'm giddy that you liked my ramble (it's one of far too many) and I will always gleefully talk about my favourite spirit crush with other fangirls! <3

The last surviving slaver has a medical problem…
Okay, I lied: Two more pieces of Chekhov’s arsenal laid out. Oh low fantasy, you so mundanely brutal.
I also promise this is the last OC POV chapter for a while; next time we get back to Our “Heroes” doing “heroic” things and generally making a mess of the Marches… and each other.
… man I need a...

Carling finds out what happened to her uncle.
So we’ve finally hit the resolution of the Carling subplot. I vacillated a lot on how to handle this one, with varying degrees of angst and rage. In the end, well… I’m soft-hearted. I can’t help it.
This is also the chapter that probably needs a slight rape culture warning; I wanted to stay true to Hawke’s reaction to...

Set-up; complete. Chekhov’s guns; placed. Titular references; dropped.

Queue of old "Rabbit Heart" chapters incoming over...
Not being able to retrospectively post things on Tumblr makes me sadface, but I want to pull all the author whining out of the AO3, so… y’all’ll have to deal.

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 1
… yeah, IDK either. There’s so much jossing that’s gonna get up in this fic’s bizniss in the next, oh, six to twelve months it’s not funny. But whatevs; it wanted to be written and so it did. Cue yet another epic Plotty McEpicnofinish fic. Just what I need.
Enough whining; crank up the Florence and the Machine and let’s get this thing done.

I need a rape culture beta for a scene in "Rabbit...
It’s not huge and it’s not explicit and it’s not long, but it’s been bothering me, and a loan of another set (or some other sets) of eyes would be appreciated.
Prior knowledge of either DA2 or Rabbit Heart not required, just someone who can give me an opinion on a few hundred words…

“I like Cullen. […] And there are things I think can be done with Cullen. I...”
– David Gaider.
Huh.
Unpopular fannish opinion time: I loathe Cullen. Like, really. I think he’s worse than Meredith, and not just due to the — apparently now retconned — DA:O epilogues.
Cullen is a bully and a bigot and a sycophant and the worst thing about him is that he does it...

You know "Rabbit Heart" really is thinly-veiled...
No, really. See:
Chapter 1: The Wombats, “Tokyo (Vampires and Wolves)”
If you love me let me go Back to that bar in Tokyo Where the demons from my past Leave me in peace (ah ah ah ah ah) I’ll be animating every night The grass will be greener on the other side And the vampires and wolves Won’t sink their teeth (ah ah ah ah ah) I’m sick of dancing with the beast
