    Summary

    Hawke's mother is dead, and though he did not kill her, he's certain that it's his fault. He knows he deserves to be punished for failing to save her. Since nobody else is going to, he'll just have to do it himself.

    Anders arrives too late to stop him, but not too late to help him pick up some of the pieces.

    Summary

    Their weekly meet-up for Wicked Grace is the first time Hawke has seen Anders since he confronted him about his "potion". When Anders admits to having a bad headache, Hawke assumes the role of healer, ushering him to a vacant room where he can take care of the other mage. Still feeling hurt over the things Anders said to him, but even more hurt by the fact that it seems like his partner doesn't think he can trust him, he uses the opportunity to try and bridge the gap forming between them before it gets any worse.

    Summary

    For a while, Hawke assumed he was only interested in men, but he's come to realize that it's a bit more complicated than that. He's never wanted anyone the way he wants Anders, and the only time he ever came close was with his best friend when he was a teenager. The emotional aspect that sex has for him can be too much at times, but he fears that Anders will not understand, so he devises a plan to show his partner just how loved and wanted he really is.

    Summary

    Hawke is good at many things, but despite having a naturally stronger connection with the Fade and its spirits, lack of practice makes his healing amateur at best. When a gang leader's creative weaponry leaves him with an injury that he can't heal, his friends drag him (lovingly) to Anders' clinic for treatment. As usual, it's not as bad as he fears it will be. It helps that it's Anders taking care of him, of course.

    Or: 6000+ words of the author reminding you that Anders is a doctor, and pulling descriptions of fantasy medical treatment out of their ass.

    Edit 12/29/2025: I was not aware that Malcolm Hawke had an actual canon death date, so the part that mentions his passing has been altered to line up more accurately with canon.

    Summary

    It's Hawke's seventh year in Kirkwall. He's earned his place in Hightown. He's a powerful spirit healer and weaver of the Fade. Singlehandedly beating the Arishok in mortal combat has earned him the title of Champion. The fate of an entire city-state is quickly falling into his hands as the conflict between the mages and templars comes to a head, and he can't afford to falter, no matter how he feels about everything.

    Amidst all this chaos, he forgets something important: a traumatized mage is a demon's favourite prey.

    ---

    In which the gang gets along for once, Hawke learns to ask for help, and it turns out Justice doesn't hate him, actually.
