Something I seem to do when I get into a new fandom: write a lot of ficbits to prompts. It mostly happened in my journal with FFX/X-2, and in places like the Kissing Battle and FFEX for FFXII, but Dragon Age has a number of ongoing prompt sources, and I've been having fun playing around with them. Here are some of the shorts I've generated in the last couple of months, reposted to AO3 as a series I'm calling
Pieces of Thedas. Gen unless otherwise specified, rated K /mild T.
