Here’s my piece for @handers-time‘s reverse big bang! I got to work with @geekelfie who wrote a really sweet & lovely fic that you can read here! I had such a great time working with them and am definitely still giddy from reading the story. Here’s to these two sneaking out of parties for many more years to come!
A murder in
Kirkwall isn’t news – it’s just daily life. But it’s not every day that the
murder victim is the city’s police-commissioner – and the murder suspect is
the Governor of Kirkwall.
Garrett
Hawke, Private Investigator, has a suspicion that not all is as it seems. But
while he’s investigating the murder, he has another mystery on his hands: the
enigmatic and beautiful Anders…

I’m back “home home” again. I get to spend one more day here. Pride week (in Helsinki) starts tomorrow, which is when I’ll head back to my small apartment / new home.
I probably won’t take part in many Pride events but I might go see a movie or something. Parade day is on saturday.
Anders heard a loud ‘crash’ coming from their bedroom, followed by Hawke yelling his head off. He was already up the stairs before he realized it, spell at the ready and barely holding Justice back, ready to launch devastation at whatever danger Hawke was facing.
“Garrett!” he yelled, shouldering open the door, lightning at his fingertips.
Hawke was flailing around on the ground, one hand on his crotch and the other outstretched to Anders. “No, it’s fine! Really! I’m fine!” he cried, undeniably panicked. “Stay there, don’t come closer!”
Anders ignored the request, surveyed the room and found it empty except for the two of them, and then knelt down beside him, examining him for injuries. “Are you wounded? What happened?” he asked, hands going to Hawke’s waist, and then he recoiled suddenly in alarm.
