doctor, i'm bleeding out

Title: those long freedom years
Fandom: Dragon Age 2
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 14,379
Characters/Pairing: Fenris/Male Hawke
Summary: This is the truth: Hawke has too much power over him and he's scared of running from one master to the next.
And this is the sad, pathetic truth: Fenris is too broken to know how to be what Hawke deserves.
Author's Note: This is both because of and for the lovely Adri who I'm sure is laughing to herself forever about how quickly I became invested in these video game pixels. I couldn't have asked for a more fantastic cheerleader. <333
Just a warning: quite a lot of liberty was taken with canon conversations; bits have been moved around or rewritten.
