#Sulahneran💡📸

Cosmic Bond, Power Couple, PolyShip, CanonxOC, I Would Burn the World for You, Mutual Obsession and Possession, Mutual Dependence, Hurt/Comfort, Unreliable Narrator, Manipulation, Fluff and Angst, Size Difference, Both are Touch-Starved

(Probably more but I can't think of any others)

Meruka and Lucanis: Love at first sight (for her), mutual pining, grumpy x sunshine, first true love.

Freya and Solas: Rivals to lovers, angst, yearning, he falls first but she falls harder, idiots in love, hurt no comfort, second chances, betrayal should I kiss him or kill him?

Davrin and Elswyth: Rivals to lovers, misunderstandings, small top tall bottom, hunter/prey, near death experience

• Age gap
• Mutual pining

(Probably more but I can’t think right now) 😂

Dolora/Lucanis = mutual pining, “fell first/fell harder”

Lumi/Emmrich = friends to lovers.

Eddie and Fletcher = bonded pair, matching set.

For Alma and Emmrich:

Older man/younger woman
Dorks in love
Angst and fluff and smut
Battle couple

Age Gap
First Love
Not Actually Unrequited Love
Younger Woman/Older Man

...i checked the tags i put on hyacinths and lilacs for this LOL anyway something something shameless plug for hyacinths and lilacs archiveofourown.org/works/620298...

Actual tropes: Birds of a Feather, Love at First Sight, Outlaw Couple, idk what else. They're very similar but also incredibly different in ways that make them work to be more complete people in their own right. It's pretty nuanced. Hard to pin down like that.

pasco/illario: you're the motherfucker in this town that can handle me (mutual)

pasco/lucanis: hand in unlovable hand

Grumpy/sunshine
Friends to lovers
Bisexual Cassandra Pentaghast
Sexy Chant of Light Recitation
Fluff and Smut

in my heart of hearts there’s an underlying one fell first/the other fell harder vibe……..

T4T, size difference, top/bottom dynamics, mutual trust and appreciation, battle couple~

Lucanis and Teleri: Gomez & Mortica. That's it, that's their vibe with the added bonus of Spite.

kalquin: annoyances to lovers, the one that got away

lucalais: second chance romance (for kalais, at least)

Passionate, devoted, besotted. They'd raze the world to the ground for each other.*

*Actually, they *say* that, but they both know the other would die for their world, so they'd *save* the world for each other.

Viago, on the other hand, *would* raze the world to the ground for his little Amelia.

Love at first sight, I married my best friend, old married couple, rags to riches, soulmates ✨️

Tagging is always my least favorite part of posting fics so uhhh- older man/younger woman, do-over, reunited and it feels so good, emotional hurt/comfort, explicit sexual content, light dom/sub, protectiveness, honesty, & they love each other very much your honor. Or something.

#ThomAndMira #OCMira

Violanders are horny x horny, annoying x annoying, emotionally constipated x doing too much, and most importantly ☝️ toxic yet codependent ❤️

Aedan and Morrigan:

Dislike to Lovers
Sloooow burn
Literally takes 4 fics to get offically together, another two for one to say I love you
Have a child before I love you
Constantly bickering
Scary dog privilege but both are the scary dog
Angsty angst angst
Battle couple

Others below 👇

death blooms love, skeletal embrace, beyond the veil, eternal light, age gap, undead love intrest

And that is just with Emmrich 😁

rises from the dead hello

Iron hart (Vigi and Iron bull):
Ragebaiter x ragebaitee
Slow burn
Height difference (+size difference)
Sparring as foreplay
"me and the qunari I pulled by actively trying to avoid him"
talks in his sleep vs dead to the world
loves (killing) dragons x hates loud noises

Kalais & Davrin = Friends to lovers, battle couple, chaotic dumbass X oh fuck they're my dumbass, I can be myself with you.

Ves & Bull = height/size difference, fell first fell harder, battle couple, devotion, safe harbour.

one (very dumb) reason stopping me from posting on ao3 more often is bc i'm bad at tags, i overthink it so much

but with that said:

For Emmrich and Yuriel, lets see:

Age-gap
Love beyond death
Bisexual Yaoi
Tutor/student
Interracial

Quite a lot of labels. But still true love 💜

✦Love at first sight
✦Opposites attract / Sun & Moon
✦Coworkers
✦Invisible scars / bonding over emotional baggage
#LucanisDellamorte #AlbaDeRiva #Lucalba #Rookanis

Unrequited love.

But I wished for :
-friends to lover
-Slow burn

Quite common but crème de la crème. 🥰

childhood best friends to lovers, & soul mates... Yvair and Sebastian keep ending back up together despite everything and the world just feels Right when they do. Also very much pining and 'will they won't they' smfh.

Illyria & Alistair: trauma bonding, puppy love to true love

Siam & Isabela: no strings attached (it's dead serious), porn with feelings

Rin & Cullen: will they won't they, frenemies to lovers, opposite attract (sort of)

Meleys & Lucanis: hurt/comfort, slow burn, will they won't they
