Dragon Age Poly Exchange
Nov. 23rd, 2025 01:30 pmsettiaiThe Dragon Age Poly Exchange went live today, and I got not one, not two, not three, not even four, but five amazing gifts this year. 💕
Moving in general chronological order...
First up is Guide me through the blackest nights, a DA:O fic focused on Jowan/Lily/Female Surana. 8,941 words. It's a canon divergence AU and, no spoilers, but the end is brilliant. "When the time came, Lily refused to take his hand. How could she after what he had done?"
Then there's Not Long Now, a DA:I time travel fic focused on Ameridan/Female Lavellan, Ameridan/Telana, and Female Lavellan/Solas. 764 words. "Mihris Lavellan already knows how this story ends..."
There's there's Not Too Late, a DA:V fic focused on Ashur/Nonbinary Mercar/Tarquin. 2,298 words. "The world is ending, Rook is dying, and Ashur, Tarquin, and Rook are forced to face their feelings for each other."
After that is An Innocent Start, a DA:V fic focused on Emmrich/Lucanis/Spite. 500 words. "Lucanis buys Emmrich a gift and contemplates the future with Spite."
And last but not least is psychopomp, a DA:V fic focused on Emmrich/Lucanis/Spite. Warning: Major Character Death. 1,175 words. "Emmrich passes but is not alone. Lucanis and Spite keep him company until the end."

Critical Role: Campaign 4, Episode 7
Nov. 21st, 2025 02:25 amsettiaiAs with previous posts about the current campaign of Critical Role, this will be a combination of quotes, random thoughts, and some speculation. And it's obviously full of spoilers (albeit vague ones in places).

Stargate
Nov. 19th, 2025 12:30 pmsettiaiOkay, this is definitely not news that I was expecting to see today. Amazon has apparently greenlit a new Stargate series set in the same continuity as the past ones, so it's not a reboot.
A lot of familiar names from both the original movie and the shows have signed on as producers. Martin Gero, Brad Wright, Joseph Mallozzi, Dean Devlin, Roland Emmerich...

Dear Holly Poly Creator(s),
Nov. 14th, 2025 04:48 pmsettiaiJust to note: this year's requests include Baldur's Gate, Black Ships by Jo Graham, Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Related Fandoms, Critical Role: Exandria, Doctor Who, Dragon Age, Gargoyles, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Mass Effect, and Star Wars.
My AO3 account is Settiai.
First of all, relax! I'm far from being picky, and I can pretty much guarantee that I'll love whatever you decide to write me. These are nothing but guidelines, for you to take to heart or ignore to your heart's content. Also, hey! You're creating a fanwork for me! About a poly relationship that I love! That's automatically a good reason for me to love you, no matter what. So, please, keep that in mind. Trust me, you can pretty much do no wrong. ♥
That said, I thought that I'd elaborate a bit on my requests and provide some general prompts in case, like me, you're the type of person who likes to have something to work with. If you're not that type of person, it's totally fine with me if you skip over anything/everything that I've included in this letter. Feel free to use and/or ignore as much of this as you want.

Critical Role: Campaign 4, Episode 6
Nov. 14th, 2025 02:56 amsettiaiNote to self: definitely try to take a 2-3 hour nap after work on Thursdays if you're planning on staying up to watch Critical Role. It makes such a huge difference.
As with previous posts about the current campaign of Critical Role, this will be a combination of quotes, random thoughts, and some speculation. And it's obviously full of spoilers (albeit vague ones in places).

That was such a good episode. They're finally starting to properly feel like a team of some type, even if they're still a mess.
