Unrequited love

Pairing: Jason Dilaurentis X OC

Genre: Angst

Summary: To protect herself from getting heartbroken again, Ami starts to avoid Jason at all cost as she knew that he would never see her the way she sees him.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the images and the pretty little liars characters or the storylines. They belong to Marlene King and Sara Shepard.

Loving someone is hard. It can hurt so bad to destroy someone. It could also make you feel like the happiest person on earth.

Ami Fields is the girl that has always loved Jason Dilaurentis. She loved him so much that it hurts her to see him upset. He didn’t deserve the horrible ways he has been treated by his fathers or the way that he was lied to his whole life. She knew that he has always doubted himself and felt like the black sheep of his family.

Ami is the only one that ever tries to understand Jason, and she saw the true nature of the boy which is also why she fell for him. However, the more she fell for the boy, the more times her heart seem to shatter. She has always tried to be by his side to support him and let him know that he is more than what he thinks he is. But he only ever saw her as a friend. Of course, he never failed to show her how much he appreciated having her by his side during his tough times. But she can tell that he will never look at her the way she wanted him to.

Ami thought that just being by his side and seeing him happy was sufficient. But when he first showed interest in her best friend, Aria, her heart broke into two. Never would she have saw it coming, but if both of them are happy then she should be happy too right? She helped him to make a good impression on Aria and get closer to her.

During the night, when the both of them kissed, she cried herself to sleep and the next morning, she wakes up persuading herself to be happy for them.

When their relationship, didn’t get any further because Aria still loved Ezra. She felt bad to feel relieved. Jason didn’t say much but she knew he must have felt down being rejected by someone he liked. So she spent the whole day with him, making sure he was okay.

Then, Alison’s trail happened. Her heart shattered once again and her world seem to have turned upside down after taking in the information that Jason had slept with Hanna’s mom.

Her ears were ringing as she walk out of the courtroom. She couldn’t understand why out of all people, it had to be one of her best friend’s mother. Was she so unappealing to him? Was she that bad? As she walk into the toilet cubicle, she couldn’t control her tears anymore, she slid down the toilet door and started to sobbed loudly. That was when she realised that she will never be on his choice list and he will never return those feelings of hers. It occured to her that she will never be as good as Aria nor Ashley Marin. She wasn’t as pretty as either of them nor has talent like Aria.

The next few days, she avoided him at all costs, declining all his calls and blocking all his messages. She have to avoid him, it hurts too much. She cannot bare staring at him, without tears running down her cheeks.

Next thing she knew, they were already captured in the dollhouse. During the time in the dollhouse, A had given them presents, played games with them and tortured them. It was living hell.

When the girls got rescued after one month, they were all having a hard time trying to live their lives normally. Nothing felt safe and everything reminds them of what they have been through in the dollhouse. They were all trying their best to put things in the past and move on.

Ami, however, had closed herself from the world and spent her days hiding in the corner of her room. She didn’t want to see or talk to anyone. She was like a broken doll, her eyes were dull and there were dark circles under her eyes. She doesn’t move from her spot unless she need to use the bathroom. Her room was dark and the curtains were close, shutting anyone out.

Emily was worried about her sister. She didn’t like seeing her like this and she wished to take away some of the pain she was feeling. Her dad has called a few times asking about her but she didn’t want to talk and her mom has tried to get her to talk to a therapist, but she refuses as well.

——————————————————————————

Emily was in her room when she heard the doorbell rang. When she walked down the stairs, her mom had already invited her friends in.

“Hey Em!” Hanna greets as she walks towards them.

“Thanks for coming!” Emily smiled appreciatively at the other girls.

“Of course, we wanna help too!” Spencer says as she smiled back at the girl. Hanna and Aria nodded along with her and Aria adds in, “Thats what friends are for right?”

Mrs Fields stood at the stairway as she listen to the girls talk. “I really appreciate you girls coming here for her. You girls have been through a lot together, maybe this will get her to open up.”

“Don’t worry mom, we will try our best.” Emily says as she lead the girls up the stairs to Ami’s room.

“Ami, we are coming in!” Emily says as she push the door open. Ami was sitting at her original spot, laying her head on her knees. Her room was dark, the only source of light coming from her cellphone that lights up every few minutes from the people trying to get ahold of her.

Her friends frowned when they saw her. Situated at the door of her room, Spencer turned to Emily, “She has been like this for days?”

Emily nodded, “She has been sitting in the same spot for days and she doesn’t want to talk to anyone. Jason came by a few times, but she practically begged my mom not to let him in.”

“Well, it makes sense, she has been avoiding him since….” Spencer stops mid sentence as she looks over at Hanna.

Hanna sighs as she walk over to where Ami is at. “Hey Ami! I brought some of your favourite muffins. We could go downstairs and watch some movies and eat these.” Hanna says as she brought out the box of muffin from her bag.

When no reply came, Aria chimed in, “We could also go to the Brew to have a meal together?”

No response either.

Emily and Spencer sighed as they walked to where the girl was as well. Spencer lowered to her friends side and she frowned seeing the girl whose face was so pale. “Ami, I know you are hurting, but you wouldn’t get better keeping all this in. We have been through so much together, we can understand, so please just talk to us. Spencer pleaded as she hated seeing her friend in this state. Emily followed right after, also lowering to her sisters level. “Please Ami, it hurts to see you like this.” Emily begged as tears formed in her eyes.

Still, Ami didn’t move from the spot to look at any of them. The girls stood at their position as their eyes watered, just hoping the once cheerful girl will talk to them. They didn’t know how to help her and they felt sad.

Hanna being the first to snap out of the moment. Wiping her tears, she took in a deep breath before looking at the girl again. “You know what Ami? I get it! You are hurt! But you can’t just sit here and do nothing! That’s exactly what A wants! A loves to mess with us and you are making A win the game!” Emily tried to cut in but Hanna ignored her and continued. “I know you experienced horrible things in the dollhouse! We all have! But we are not sitting here, making our family and friends worried! Where is the Ami I know? She is the sweet and caring person and she hates to see people she cares about upset!” Hanna finished.

Much to her surprise, this time something was different, Ami slowly raised her head and look around at her friends. Her eyes watered as she spoke for the first time in a while, “I’m sorry!”

Her friends were all surprised that she finally talked. They couldn’t help their feelings and immediately wrapped their friend into a big hug.

After pulling away from the hug, Emily wiped her tears. “Ami talk to us okay? We wanna take away some of your pain.” Ami nodded as her tears were still flowing down her cheeks uncontrollably.

“Okay, let’s get you into a more comfortable position then we can talk.” Spencer says as Hanna and her helped the girl up to sit on her bed.

Ami sat on her bed as the four girls waited patiently for her friend to speak. Emily noticed her nervousness so she placed her hand on hers rubbing them, trying to give her a little comfort.

Ami took a deep breath before she spoke. “In the dollhouse, A gave me presents. There were many pictures…” her friends nodded listening to her attentively. “What kind of pictures?” Spencer asks as she saw the pause in her sentences.

“They were pictures of Jason… Jason kissing other girls. And A forced me to look at those pictures for hours each day and when I wake up, I would see horrible writings in the room.” Hanna frowned and placed her hand on Ami’s shoulder, comforting her.

The girls waited patiently for Ami to continue. Some writings were “you will never be good enough for him”, “ugly”, “unattractive” and many other words that remind me that I will never be the girl Jason likes. It happened everyday and after a while, I just started to believe all those. And one day, A sent a mirror into my room. I looked at the person in the mirror, and I just cried. I thought I can’t stand the person in this mirror and I’m never gonna be enough. I broke the mirror as I cannot bare to look at myself any longer but the next day, there was another one. No matter how many times I broke it, it just keep coming back.” Aria looked at the poor girl, feeling terrible of what she had been through. She engulfed the girl in a hug, letting her cry on her shoulder. The rest of the girls rubbed her on the back, trying to comfort her.

When they pulled away from the hug, Ami spoke again. “I know that I will not be good enough for Jason so I need to avoid him. I can’t see him, not right now. My heart has been shattered and it hurts so bad. I feel like I’m suffocating and my heart feels empty.”

Emily engulfed the girl in another big hug, letting a few of her own tears slip through her eyes. “I will never let him near you ever again!” She didn’t want her sister to have to feel this kind of pain ever again.

After all the crying, Ami had finally fallen asleep in the first time in a while, tired from all the crying. Relieved that their friend had finally open up to them, they smiled as they looked at their sleeping friend. Hanna put her hand in the girl’s hair, gently combing it.

After awhile, the girls decided to head home. Emily led them downstairs and as they were saying their goodbyes, Mrs Fields thanked them, “thank you all for being with her! I’m so glad she had open up. Emily and her are so lucky to have all of you.”

The girls smiled at the older woman. “We are lucky to have them too.” As the three girls walk out, they met Jason who just got out of the car. They knew that he was here to see Ami.

Spencer looked at the older boy before turning to the two other girls. “You guys go first, I will talk to him.” Aria and Hanna nodded before walking away to go home.

Spencer walked over as Jason also approached her. “Hey Jason!” Spencer smiled politely at him.

“Hey!” He answered back politely.

Spencer sighed as she noticed Jason looking over at the house. “She doesn’t want to see you. You need to stop coming here.”

“Why? What did I do to make her hate me so much?” Jason frowned as Spencer noticed that his eyes were filled with sadness.

Spencer knew it was hard for him too. Ami was important to him, maybe not in the romantic way but definitely an important friend. But she knew that he need to stay away from her, for Ami’s sake. “She just can’t see you right now. Just stay away from her for her sake.” Spencer says as she try to ignore the look in his eyes that was pleading to know why.

“Why can’t I see her? She is my friend too! I haven’t seen her after Ali’s trial and much worse after the dollhouse, I just wanted to be there for her like she was for me. Why is that so hard?” Jason asks not wanting to give up.

Spencer was thinking though her choice of words that will make him understand and walk away. “She has been through a lot and she doesn’t want to see you, so just leave her alone.”

“I don’t believe that, if you are not telling me, then I’m gonna ask her myself. I will believe that when she say that to my face.” Jason says before he walk past Spencer towards the house.

Spencer’s eyes widened as she ran to catch up to him. She definitely cannot let him burst through the house to see Ami. She can’t see him. But he was determined and she knew that he would do anything to see her at this point so she had no choice.

“She doesn’t want to see you because it is too painful for her!” Spencer yelled as she caught his arm, preventing him from walking further.

Jason turned around to look at her in confusion. “What do you mean?”

Spencer knew at the moment she had no choice but to tell him. “Her feelings for you are suffocating her! She is heartbroken so you need to stay away from her so she can move on!”

Jason frowned as he muttered, “her feelings for me?” Spencer sighed, knowing he didn’t totally get what she said.

“Yes, she loves you! She always have! I can’t believe you never noticed. Why did you think she cried so hard when you injured yourself in that elevator? Why do you think she avoided you after the trial?”

“But she tried to help me with Aria..” Jason frowned as he tried to make sense of everything.

“It was simply because she loves you too much! She placed your happiness before her own’s! Did you know that day after you kissed Aria, she came to school with red puffy eyes? Did you know that we found her crying in the bathroom toilet crying her heart out after Ali’s trail? I know what happened between you and Hanna’s mom is none of my business but what happened had hurt her!” Spencer says as she was starting to feel frustrated at how dense the boy is. “If you really want the best for her, please just stay away from her.” Spencer says before walking away, leaving Jason alone in the night.

Everything was starting to make sense in Jason’s mind. He didn’t know how to describe how he was feeling right now. All this time, he has been so stupid, hurting the only person that cared about him so much. And he knew he screwed up at the moment, regrets starts to fill in and he realised what he ever wanted had always been just beside him, yet he didn’t notice and stupidly pushed her away. He was stupid for never realising what he needed was always right there and now that he had lost her, he realised how important she was to him. He had gotten use to her being around him and he didn’t realised how he had become so reliant on her. Because it didn’t cross his mind that, she will ever leave him. Now that, he realised all this, he finally noticed his feelings for her. She was the only one that he ever open up to, the only one that believed that he didn’t have anything to do with Ali’s murder when no one else would. And also the one that tells him, he is more than he think he is.

After taking in all the information, he had driven home and was laying on his bed. His mind couldn’t stop thinking about the girl. He regrets every moment that he had hurt her. If only he had realised earlier that she was the one that he loved. He thinks about her every other night and she would appear in his mind very often but he always thought that it was because she is the person that he spent most of the time with. But ever since she stopped seeing him, he felt empty. He felt like something in him was missing and he was lonely. And now he also realised every single thing in his life had brightened up because of her yet he didn’t treasure her. He placed himself in her shoes, thinking of how she must have felt when he hurt her. And he felt horrible. Now he understand that what he felt was the feeling of heartbreak for hurting the one he loved.

The next few days went by quickly, Jason had not tried to see Ami anymore, thinking that he didn’t deserve her after hurting her so much. Ami, on the other hand, had gotten better from the night she cried her heart out. She had walked out of her room, went to the library to get a book and also the brew to buy food. Her life was starting to get back to normal, just without Jason there with her. Never would she have thought this was not the end for them.

Okay, how about Ezra meeting Cee’s professor and is absolutely smitten immediately - henceforth he is constantly embarrassing Cee in his attempts to woo this teacher!

My Masterlist

Modern!Ezra (Prospect) x OC F!Professor

Ava this prompt is so late and I am SO SORRY!! You are such an angel to me and I really wanted to do this justice plus (because it's Ezra) I decided on a new writing style. I hope this is okay!! I may do a part 2 if there's enough interest - can never get enough of that chatty prospector <3

Warnings: Swearing and fluff (because Dad!Ezra is a weakness)

Ezra was talkative, that he and Cee knew. He could wax poetics on almost anything and the idea of meeting a professor was almost laughable due to the amount of language he exhausted on a constant basis but when he finally saw her, he feared he may never speak again. He was anchored. Like a boat on the shore, stranded in silence and no amount of tugging on Cee's part could release him from her gaze. It's as if all his dreams have come true right before his eyes, crawled out from the gaps in his brain and spread forth, all his unspoken desires reflected back at him through that soft smile being sent his way.

Cee is none the wiser to his predicament, tugging more insistently at his hand, feet planted in front of herself in a desperate attempt to tug her adoptive father forwards. Eventually, Ezra's feet seem to get the message, walking forward through Cee's, not quite capable of independent movement. As he's propelled forward, he is enchanted further. The smile directed his way has now grown wider in direction of Cee, a clear and sheer fondness now on her features at the sight of his daughter and he feels his chest constrict with the overwhelming softness of it all.

A feeling he hasn't felt he's deserved to feel in many moons.

Cee has ceased her insistent tugging, now talking animatedly with the woman in front of him and he couldn't focus on the topic of their discourse even if he tried, too enraptured by the way her mouth forms her words and how her hair falls across the soft slope of her cheekbones. She looks to him now and kevva her eyes are celestial, swirling with colours and sparks that are incomparable to any galaxy he's ever seen. And he's seen a lot in his time.

He realises that she'd held a hand out to him, clearly, a missed introduction and he takes it in his own. He can't help but notice she's changed the side she stood on before to grasp his left hand rather than his right and he smiles to himself at the silent assurance of it. No awkward fumble, no rude questions just a simple action that makes him feel lighter than air.

"Nice to meet you Mr Shepard."

Ezra smiles, "The pleasure's all mine, but please call me Ezra, Miss..." He trails off embarrassed, realising he can't remember the woman's name and he hears Cee sigh next to him, clearly annoyed at his lack of preparedness. Ezra shoots Cee a look and she sticks her tongue out in retaliation. The woman in front of him laughs at the display, "Miss Andrews but much like you, I prefer being known on a first-name basis. Call me Lara."

Ezra smiles, belatedly realising he hasn't let go of her hand but then again she hasn't released his either. Lara seems to come to the same conclusion and retracts her hand, moving it to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear as she does, "Shall we sit?" gesturing to her desk. Cee takes the seat on his right, always there where his arm no longer rests, and he takes the other watching as Lara shuffles through some papers before leaning forward, "I must say Cee is one of my best students."

Ezra grins and leans forward, "Well assuredly so, she's a favourite of mine too." Cee rolls her eyes at Ezra's shameless flirting but remains silent nonetheless. It's a rarity to see him so happy, so alive. Ezra speaks again, "I hate to make a fool of myself once more Lara," grinning to himself when he uses the name, "but what type of educating exactly is it that you deliver to this favourite of ours?"

Lara, undeterred by his waxing vocation laughs. She can't help but feel charmed by this man in front of her, "That would be English Language and History, Ezra." Her smile stays but her eyes move, pointing now at Cee who is slumped in the chair in embarrassment, "Despite her attempt at seeming uninterested right now, she's quite the avid student" Lara pauses, and finds a sheet of paper on the table, pushing it towards Ezra and he looks down at it confused, "Are you about to test me? I must confess it has been a while since I've needed to put my thoughts into physical form although with such a helpful teacher," He winks suggestively at that notion, "I can be persuaded."

Lara huffs a laugh and taps the sheet with a delicate finger, "Turn it over." Ezra's grin falters, flustered with embarrassment at his faux pa and Cee stifles a giggle in her seat. Ezra flips the paper over defiantly with a cocky grin back on his face and scans the page, immediately noticing Cee's name at the top. Cee stops laughing when she notices the page, sitting up straighter and avoiding Ezra's questioning gaze, "Did you write this?"

Cee Shepard - Belonging

To belong is a fleeting thing.

Friends break us. Family leave.

Homes burn and turn to ash, words you love don't seem to work and you stare into the cloudless sky and wonder: where am I?

If I am not there then I am here. With you.

The only place I feel attached, linked by hose and tube as we stumble through. The world hurtling across our lives so fast I cannot grasp where it ends but then you see me. I see you.

Safe. I am safe.

I am not scared. Now I can laugh, laugh until my lungs fill with stars as we soar and I look to you and know that you'll catch me. No matter where I go you trust me. I trust you.

Somewhere our planets collided and now we are here. I am finally here.

I belong.

There's a small note at the bottom and Ezra squints to read it but when he does he almost regrets it. His feelings are suddenly all-encompassing and too large for the small suit of his body to contain.

For Ezra, the dad I chose.

Ezra isn't one for crying, he's not even sure he's capable of it until the moment he reads those six words and now looking at your knowing look and the hesitance on Cee's face, he does. A small tear manages to escape before he rubs it away, pulling Cee into an awkward embrace with the twist of his body and she returns it. He whispers to her, something Lara can't hear but Cee nods and Ezra pulls himself back into the seat, hand now firmly set on the paper below him, "May I ask if you'd be so kind as to let me keep this?"

Lara nods, "Of course. I've marked it anyway now and I thought you'd like it. Take it home with you after this, if you'd like" Ezra can't believe this woman. It's like she can see right through him, assuring him even without realising and giving him just what he needs before he even realises he needs it. The following words fall from his lips like a rolling tide, undeterred by the nearing shore, "Can I take you too?"

Cee fully groans at that, hand slapping over her face in an exasperated huff and Ezra laughs, knocking her elbow, "You can't say anything now little bird, that poem is etched into my memory. You like me for all my insufferable qualities." Cee stands at that, walking to the door, "It doesn't mean I have to stand here while you flirt with my teacher Ez, I'm waiting in the car." Cee hesitates at the door, but she turns the handle and leaves eventually, leaving Ezra's question hanging in the air.

Ezra notices Lara hasn't said anything so he tries again, "I must apologise for my forthcoming ways of asking a lady such as yourself to accompany me home but that poem had an ethereal effect on myself and I couldn't stop the request if I tried.." He puts his hand up in a placating gesture when he sees her cock a brow at him, "Now, now, I know you are my daughter's teacher and I respect there are certain rules to these futilities but I digress, she has only to the end of term and then you are liberated of your sanctions to join me. So why not start that process earlier, maybe I can-"

Lara slaps a hand down across Ezra's mouth, grinning at how wide his eyes go at the interruption, "Now Mr Shepard, you're talking as if I have already said yes. How assured of you." Ezra mumbles something Lara holds firm, "Uh uh. I'm talking now. You're right, there is only a term left, however; I am someone who enjoys taking her time with matters of the heart. So, I propose a challenge." Lara feels Ezra grin against her hand, "Convince me to say yes. You have until the end of the term if you succeed we will go on a date. If you don't-"

Ezra whips her hand away lightning-fast, holding it in his own awkwardly and it's times like this he wished he still had his other arm, "Oh I don't plan on losing Lara, I wager I'll have you convinced before that proposed deadline."

Lara eyes him up and Ezra burns under the gaze, so calculating and yet so intrigued by him it lights him up, far too long since anyone has looked at him like that. Lara sits back in place, taking her hand gently from his grasp but he notices how her fingers linger across his palm. She winks, "We'll see about that. Now." Lara stands and Ezra stands with her, she moves to the door and he follows like a satellite in her orbit. "I think you should get Cee home. The last thing I need is her complaining I kept her dad in here past meeting hours tomorrow."

Ezra nods, his voice going suddenly serious which makes Lara smile more, "Of course." Ezra goes to the handle and swings the door open, corridor empty now school is over, he looks at Lara at his side and tips his head as if he was wearing a hat, "Until next time."

Lara crosses her arms, shaking her head with a fondness at the man in front of her, blonde tuft even more striking under the luminescent bulbs. She catches sight of a silvery scar on his cheek and it makes her yearn to know more about him, how he got here, "I look forward to it."

Ezra salutes and wanders backwards, arm swinging with his wide gait as he meanders through the hallways, still facing Lara. She calls out a warning, to look where he's going but Ezra just calls back, "Fear not, for you are my ever-fixed mark Miss Andrews. Gazing at you can do me no harm, it is what happens when I look away that is dangerous. I fear I may never see such a sight again."

Lara bites her lip, grin threatening to break out across her entire face. This was going to be harder than she thought.

-----------

A/N: I got Ezras last name from a rocketship (I just wanted it space-themed and all the others were named after planets) and Andrews is a dedication to my queen Julia Andrews because I love her and that's legit all there was to it.

@buttercup--bee I hope you liked it ???? I have ideas for part two already, what he whispered to Cee, his deeper reaction to the poem, further flirtations with Lara...so many plans but all depends on what everyone wants!

Part two anyone????

This ask game has alot of good questions!! But 💖 and 😊 for all the ocs in your tags!

THIS IS VERY LONG IM SORRY HAHA

💖 Has your OC ever been in love, be it romantic or platonic or otherwise? Who with and did they ever express their feelings or keep it private? How long did these feelings persist / do they still feel this way?

Dahlia Shepard: romantically, she had been in love exactly three times. First time was with a girl back during Alliance training, Catalina. She was head over heels but never really told her, just because she felt it wouldn't work out in the end and let her doubts overcome her. Lasted for nearly a year, and no, she's completely over her (and actually attended her wedding and felt nothing but happiness for her.) Second was Aria T'loak, back when she was undercover on Omega. They had worked closely for months (trying to catch a cerberus cell leader) and had been seeing each other- but Dahlia presumed it was just a casual fling and would be over once she was finished. Dahlia knew once she was back in Alliance space, it wouldn't work out, and left it at that. Took a bit longer for her to get over this time, but she eventually did after focusing solely on her military career. Finally the woman she would easily rescue a galaxy for, Liara. For the first time, Dahlia allowed herself to be selfish and to want to be in a longstanding relationship. For the first time she sees herself willing to sacrifice everything for the one she loves, she is beyond head over heels for Liara. She platonically falls in love with every one of her friends, even if she's the worst at showing it. She loves these people more than life itself.

Nicola Amell: growing up in the Circle, with templars looming over your shoulders every second of the day- she never really bothered to invest any time in crushes, never giving them the chance to grow into something more. She devoted all her time to her studies and squashed any crush at the start. She didn't actually let herself fall in love until she felt her life was on the line, until she met Leliana. It was the first time she ever truly loved another person in a romantic sense, and she was going to live in every moment as if it were her last. Even by the time of the events of Trespasser, Nicola still takes the time and effort to send love letters and gifts to the now Divine Victoria. No amount of blights, ancient tevinters, nor elvish gods will ever keep the Warden Commander from her love.

Delaney Hawke: well, being a half elf mage apostate constantly living on the run for a majority of her life- she never really had time to actively meet people long enough to develop an emotional connection. Most of her crushes were as short lived as their homes.

Until moving to Kirkwall, that was. Having a crazy band of misfits that constantly follow you around, it's hard not to form attachments. Platonic or romantic. And when she fell for Isabela, she fell hard. I'm talking about head in the clouds, only able to think of one name. She's never experienced a crush like that and it freaked her out. Instead of telling Isabela about her feelings, she ran to Varric. Almost immediately. Delaney unsure of how to handle love in a romantic way, and Isabela shutting love out- it took quite some time for those two to establish themselves in a relationship. But even in those standstills, Delaney had almost expected her heart to move on, but it did the exact opposite- caused her love to grow stronger. Even now in Inquisition time, it took all of Delaney's strength to leave the comfort of Isabela's ship to go aid Varric. Not wanting to be separated for long, but not wanting to leave her best friend high and dry (who she loves very very much.

Gryff Hawke: like his twin sister, Delaney, he never had the time (nor desire really) to search for any love. At the time, the love of his 3 siblings and his parents was enough for him. He was happy and content. He knew he didn't need a relationship to be happy and content, so he never actively searched for one. Hell, even in Kirkwall, he was too busy keeping him and his sister out of Meredith's grasp and keeping the qunari at bay. But he did quite literally stumble into thoughts of a certain glowing elf, and never realized just how far he had fallen for him. Despite their differences they saw on magic, Gryff knew Fenris was the one he wanted to be with. For the first time ever, Gryff was actively seeking out affection for another person romantically. He will never admit it, but it was the best feeling he ever had. His love language is traipsing across thedas taking out slavers with his badass boyfriend.

Kiri Lavellan: Kiri LOVES being in love, adores the feelings of warmth and security a partner brings. She has had a few partners of course, but none ever lasted too long, especially amongst her Dalish clan, where everyone knows everyone's business. That being said though, she doesn't jump right into anything. When she loves someone it's very slowly and then all at once, pouring her heart and soul into her partners. Which was fairly difficult when it came to Sera, given her stance on the dalish, magic, and dalish magic. That didn't deter her though, she was understanding and patient and more than happy to move at Sera's pace. Despite their difficulties and differences, there's never been a stronger bond between pairings- Sera was so devoted to her inky, even as far as post Exalted Council, following Kiri back to her clan and being introduced to Kiri's friends and family.

Niamh Valyn: here's another one who just claims she never has time for a relationship. Not saying she will actively deter them, she just- doesn't expect anyone to want to put up with extensive time apart due to her place with the Rangers. She's fallen in love platonically more than romantically, and she's not going to complain. She loves her friends very dearly, they're her whole world, even if they're miles apart. But when it comes to romance, she finds it to be more difficult to keep a relationship going, finds it more emotionally taxing at times and just hasn't really put any thought into seeking someone out. She's content with where she is, if someone comes along who willingly wants to deal with distance- she will happily accept.

Ezra Marlowe (because I forgot to tag her and she's my baby): twice. She's fallen in love twice, and the first time damn near killed her. She let herself love so wholly and blindly, she never anticipated being hurt (quite literally.)

After that she felt very scared of any romantic advances, even if she was the one to initiate- she'd eventually run off if her overwhelming fear of being hurt overcame her.

After a while, the second time- it was a very slow, unsure path she took. But this man, the love of her life, Bashir, had proven just how much Ezra means to him. Through patience and care and understanding. Ezra once again allowed herself to love wholeheartedly, and for once, she's not scared.

Roux Lux: now here is someone who falls in love with the world anytime the sun sets or rises. She loves virtually everyone she meets. She falls head over heels for all her friends, in the most platonic way possible. She gives everyone the same special treatment, affection, and adoration as she does with a romantic partner. Though, Beetle may receive extra special treatment for being her amour. When she was ready to tell Beetle how she felt about him, she did so in the cutest puppet show..which she spent days hand crafting her props and painting new marionettes 😭

😊 What can make your OC smile even when they’re feeling down? What cheers them up and makes everything feel better for them? Is your OC generally a happy person and do they enjoy making others smile? What about your OC makes others happy?

Dahlia Shepard: it's hard for her to always feel happy when there's an impending invasion on their doorsteps, but one surefire way to cheer her up is a quick call to her son, Otikk, a little salarian boy. He is such a lively, happy go lucky boy, and always eager to cheer his mama up. Dahlia comes off very brash and intimidating, but she very much loves pulling her friends out of the dark- whether through inspiring words, or distracting them with their favorite hobbies.

Nicola Amell: even with the blight raging, she always looked for the little things to cheer her up. To be honest, just having her closest friends at her back was more than enough. Knowing that she will always have people to pick her back up if she falls was the greatest comfort and a thought that always lingered when she felt low. Making other people happy is what being a hero is all about in her mind. When others around her feel safe and are smiling, that fills her with so much pride and joy.

Delaney Hawke: ah yes, the one who finds any reason to crack a joke- ill timed or not. To be honest whenever she's in a low spot, just curling up in bed with her mabari, Junji, is enough. Though sometimes having Isabela sprawled across next to her, having her tell tales of her life at sea, watching her put on an exaggerated reenactment of exciting fights is just what she needs too. Or sitting around a table with everyone, letting Varric make up stories on the spot, everyone happily buzzed…. Never fails to bring a smile to her face. She's generally very chipper and easy going, so everyone assumes by the amount of quips and playful teasing. Deep below, she's miserable, and full of guilt and self doubt. She doesn't like letting her friends know that, so she puts up this front and goes to any extent to make sure no one else feels how she does.

Gryff Hawke: raging ball of anger who has a hard time letting himself be happy- especially trying to keep himself and his twin alive and out of the Gallows. It's hard to feel happy when everything you do backfires and bites you in the ass, even when you know you did everything you could. Even with this rowdy band of misfits at your back, sometimes it just feels like you're drowning. But sometimes there's a hand to pull you up, bring life and air into your lungs. Having Fenris curled up beside him, quietly and slowly reading through a particularly difficult chapter, pausing to ask you what a word says- it reminds Gryff that there are things worth smiling about, and oftentimes they're the ones to pull you out of the dark.

Kiri Lavellan: being dragged into a humans holy war and being propped up as their god's herald- it takes a lot out of you, and Kiri always fears she is about to get uprooted from her dalish heritage at any moment. So in the quiet rests, she finds herself reciting stories in private that the keeper once told her. Anything that reminds her of her roots, where she comes from. She tries very hard to keep a brave face, a beaming smile, one that would inspire hope amongst her men. She wants others to believe she can do this, that she's not scared, anything to instill security in those around her.

Niamh Valyn: when she's feeling lost or homesick, no matter where she is, she carries a leather-bound journal filled with bedtime stories her mother and father read to her as a child. Cuddled up with her wolf companion, Zarola, and her pipe- it's like all her worries just melt away. Even if she looks stoic and imposing like a stormy mountain, she's a very happy person. She's content with where she is, and easily makes those close to her at ease with her playfulness and cheekiness.

Ezra Marlowe: to her, all her happiness she keeps is heavily guarded and protected, not willing to let it go, risking getting hurt. She has no issues pushing people away and hurting them to protect herself. But that being said, those who truly know her, they know she can be enjoyable to have around...in an annoying sibling kind of way. Always looking to push buttons for a laugh. But on her darkest days, she finds the most comfort in the arms of Bashir. He's one of the fre who can easily calm her nerves, bring her back to reality and truly make her feel safe.

Roux Lux: a walking ray of sunshine, this one. Wherever she goes, she leaves a trail of smiles and mirth in her wake. She love love loves creating smiles and making people laugh and feel good. Its why she joined the circus to begin with, her puppet shows have brought nothing but joyful squeals and it's the greatest feeling in the world to the changeling. She's always in the happiest of moods, rarely is she seen without a smile. Yet on those rare days when she feels small and insignificant- curling up in Beetle's lap and listening to him hum soft appraisal to her is all she needs to bounce back to her original self.

Ezra has to edit one of his mugs with a marker after getting with Steve so it reads "overworked and underfucked"

Ezra: quit whining I already healed you, plus don't your tattoos make you more resistant to magic anyway? It probably barely hurt.

Fenris, on fire:

Ezra: Well now you're just doing that on purpose

Fenris: I notice you never hit Isabela with a stray fireball

Ezra: Well I would if she'd sit still for a moment

#Ezra is plenty talented enough at sculpting his spells that friendly fire shouldn't be an issue #but he likes to keep everyone on their toes. Sometimes it's getting too chummy around here.#Or he'd rather everyone argue about his sloppy spellcasting instead of yelling at each other #oc: Ezra Shepard

Kai Setsuna

Stole the OC meme from here, and needed to have this out in the world somewhere. Also so I can come back and reference it later.

1. What is your Hunter’s full name? How/why did you choose it?

Kai Setsuna (no middle name). I honestly picked WTNC up on a whim at 1 in the morning after seeing someone I follow post screen shots of it and watching a bunch of Gundam 00, so I took my Shepard’s first name and the alias of the main character and wound up with their name.

2. How old are they?

3. How tall are they?

5′ 4″ (162.5 cm)

4. What are their pronouns?

They/Them

5. What is their sexuality?

Pansexual

6. Who are they romancing? If you’re undecided, which LI(s) do you find interesting and why?

Okay. Bit of a story here. Kai was rather taken with Finn from the get-go, which was startling for them given they have an unfortunate history with Vampires. Add in his very evident affection for Ezra, they’d written off getting involved with either of them in an effort to respect whatever was unresolved there. Only they both flirted with Kai (Finn seemed particularly receptive), smooches were had, and they wound up in a relationship with them both. Which they are delightfully pleased about.

7. Have they had any previous relationships?

Nothing lasting. The first time they fell in love on an assignment (a young woman named Emily), things fell apart fairly quickly after they were reassigned. After that, they were careful about getting romantically involved--which makes their relationship with Ezra and Finn all the more startling, given how easily they both saw to the core of them and made them feel like they could safely give all of themselves.

8. What is their relationship with their family like? Are they close, distant etc.

Kai’s parents died in a vampire attack when they were very young. They have very little memory of it, beyond a vague impression of being hurt and afraid, but their older brother, Daniel, also became a Hunter. Until the Lunaris assignment, they’d not seen each other in almost a decade.

9. What was their childhood like?

Kai essentially grew up with Daniel at the Academy. Their childhood was spent surrounded by Hunters, by Enforcers, by those that work with and around the Agency: after what they survived, and what Daniel remembered, all they really wanted was to become like the adults that had looked after them.

10. What are they like as an adult?

Kai is a peace keeper. They’re skilled, capable, good at reading a room and using that to their advantage. They are genuine, but when it comes to giving of themself, they’re guarded and slow to open up. They’re used to keeping others or being kept at a distance, so they try to be a positive influence but are surprised when others express a true interest in them as a person.

11. Who is their ride or die?

Their mentor, Ceiarra.

12. What attracts them to another person?

Kai is attracted to confidence, to compassion, to kindness. A good sense of humor doesn’t hurt, and good taste in liquor is a bonus.

13. What do they look like? Either describe them or, if you’re comfortable with it, post a picture.

14. If someone else wanted to draw them, what are some distinct physical features that you would like them to know about to draw them correctly?

They’ve got distinct claw scars (Lycan) on the left side of their face, running from their cheek down and along their shoulder/upper chest. There’s another scar that bisects their right eyebrow, and their torso is marred across the left side by a set of marks to match the ones on their face. They have a number of bite scars on their arms (as an archer, they wind up in hand-to-hand combat far too often), and a few magic-related scars littered across their legs and torso. Kai also never wears their hair down, unless it’s to sleep or other -ahem- activities.

15. Do they have any tattoos? Do you have refs you’re comfortable sharing?

No tattoos for Kai. They take enough hits that it never seemed worth spending time and money on the ink, given it would be ruined in a matter of hunts.

16. Do they have any scars? Do you have refs you’re comfortable sharing?

See #14, but the only ones I’ve fully drawn out can can be found here. More comprehensive images coming sometime soonish.

17. Do they have any prosthetics? Do you have refs you’re comfortable sharing?

No prosthetics. Yet, anyway.

18. What is their weapon of choice?

Kai prefers the longbow, but is also good with a longsword in a pinch.

19. What are their strengths? Is there something they specialize in?

They’re strongest at range--they hold top marks in marksmanship, and can hit most targets at an impressive range. They’re also no slouch in hand-to-hand and bladed combat, but it’s taken them many years of near-deaths to become properly proficient.

20. What are their weaknesses? How do they compensate for these weaknesses (if they do)?

Close-quarters, though manageable, is still not preferred for them. They’ve come to compensate with better armor and additional training, but they often rely on their own impressive pain tolerance more than they should.

21. Name one good personality trait and one bad personality trait they have.

Kai is compassionate, and feels deeply with and for others. However, they’ve got a very short fuse, which often gets them in trouble--especially if they think they’re in the right.

22. Are they approachable? Or do they prefer to keep their distance?

They’re approachable. Happy to sit down for a drink and a chat, but if you want to actually get to know them, that may take a while.

23. What makes them smile?

A good joke, hot chocolate, seeing the people they’re protecting happy and safe.

24. What makes them truly angry? Are they quick to anger?

Kai becomes truly angry when innocent people are put at risk, especially for another’s self interest. They try to keep a rein on their temper (peace keeper), but they’re bad at it in the moment.

Part 2 will come eventually, but here’s the start!
