Summary
Gideon, of course, would have known Wake by the curl of her iliac crest, the line of her zygomatic bone, the slight arch of her metacarpals. Gideon would have known her in a heartbeat, spotted her as easily in death as in life, read her in a language where he claimed fluency. Gideon could have named her off a shard of femur by the thanergetic signature. Gideon was dead, and he wasn’t going to know her any longer.
After Nona, Pyrrha Dve walks the Ninth.

Summary
“Sit down,” said Bobby in a voice that left no room for discussion.
Dean sat.
“We’re gonna talk about the angel,” said Bobby.
Dean stood up.
“Sit,” Bobby said.Bobby Singer grew up a skeptic in a broken, bloodstained home, and cynicism served him fine till the day an angel of the Lord fished the closest thing he had to a son out of Hell.

Summary
Shepard knelt and started pulling out gear: regulation helmet, gauntlets, breastplate. “Good. I need you at your best."
“I wasn’t talking about fitness,” he said slowly.
Shepard rubbed her thumb over a stained bit of fibreglass on one of her vambraces, trying to work the grime off. “Neither was I.”After leaving Earth, Shepard repaints her armour.

Summary
“Fuck off, Jack,” Shepard said, and the sharpness of her words almost— almost— caught Jack off guard. “I’m not here to fix you. I don’t feel bad for you. I want to kill the Collectors, and you agreed to help me do it.”
Jack's had enough of people trying to put her back together. Shepard has no intention of trying.
A study of an unlikely alliance and an accidental friendship.

Summary
Look in a mirror, Varric wanted to say. They’ve got your smile, Hawke, and your eyes, and your hands, and they smirk at me and it makes me wish, just for a second, that I was a goddamn mage—
Varric isn't a liar, exactly. He's just a damn good storyteller, and he knows what sells-- on the stands or off them.
And Anders isn't nosy, really. He's just got an ear for mistruths and a healer's grudge against pain.The truest stories tend to be the hardest ones to tell.

Summary
"What do you want?" Dean asks, at a red light.
Sam sighs. "I don't know, man. What do you want?"
"I don't know," Dean says.
Nobody asks Castiel what he wants, because what they're talking about is food and Castiel doesn't eat food anymore. The Winchesters have this conversation a lot, because they spend a lot of time on the road, and negotiation around food seems to be one of the most inescapably irritating parts of the human experience. Castiel does not miss it.
Castiel has a lot to learn about wants and needs. His most recent lesson: Dean may need him, but that doesn’t mean he wants him.

“Sammy,” says Dean again, urgency cracking his voice. “We gotta — we really gotta go. I need you to — just — remember Poughkeepsie? Drop everything, no questions asked, and run? This is a — a Poughkeepsie situation. Please, man, I need you.”
Sam remembers Poughkeepsie.
