So, if you look up Farkas's skill stats, they might surprise you...
On one of my Skyrim play-throughs, I did the thing where you drop a piece of armor near Farkas and then tell him he can have it when he asks, and that makes him available as a follower... so I took Farkas with me all over Skyrim even though I'd only started the Companion's quest line. That prompted me to look some things up and come up with a few head-cannons...
So here's the story that I tried to make tie everything in my head together...
"Farkas is intrigued when he meets a small imperial archer and is unexpectedly caught up in her adventures. As he learns more about her he soon decides he'll do everything he can to protect her... and that promise takes him places he never imagined he'd go; brings discoveries no one thought possible; and changes the course of everything..."
Marked "mature" just to be safe, there is occasional foul language and graphic descriptions of cannon-typical violence, implied sexual content, and character death and grieving.
Also, obviously this is fanfiction, I do not own the setting or several of the characters.

Honor of the Dragonborn
Third story to "His Harbinger," sequel to "Something to Protect." Everything makes much more sense if you at least read "His Harbinger" first. Vilkas x Dragonborn (established) Farkas x Lydia (also established and a bit background) Based on my play through of the Dragonborn DLC with my Dragonborn Krinna Dovh, a female Nord. Krinna has visions and premonitions so there are some things she just knows (continuing a headcannon established in the first two books). Mostly told from Vilkas's perspective, with occasional snippets from the Dragonborn's perspective. Also explores aspects of married life; Vilkas being hot-tempered, but sweet and loyal. Story is set after the Companions quest line, the civil war, and the main story line is complete (events of "His Harbinger") and after the Dawnguard DLC (events of "Something to Protect") Also not entirely cannon compliant. And of course this is a fanfiction, the only thing unique to me is my specific characterization of the Dragonborn, everything else belongs to Bethesda, including portions of the dialogue. And lastly, marked mature for some strongly suggestive occasions (I won't write the details, but they're married), and occasional vulgar language.Complete

Getting to Know the Harbinger
Vilkas x Dragonborn and Farkas x Aela Vilkas realizes he's attracted to their newest Circle member, and then suddenly she's their new Harbinger. To his delight, he quickly figures out the feeling is mutual... the only problem is, she's got some secrets... A relatively short fic that popped into my head while I was working on other things... based on one of my play-throughs where I married Vilkas and left Aela and Farkas alone to run Jorrvaskr. I marked it mature to a a be safe, but I think it's good for "teen and up audiences."Complete![Of Fond Memories (Skyrim Oneshots) [Requests Closed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/157818324-256-k690791.jpg)
Of Fond Memories (Skyrim Oneshots) [Requests Closed]
[Continuation of my book "Of Fond Memories" but it's entirely dedicated for Skyrim oneshots only, unlike my first book which was about both WoW and Skyrim] In a world which is under the constant threat of the Daedra, the civil war of Imperial and Stormcloak, and only recently, the dragons. There is little room to appreciate kindness, let alone "love"... or is it?Complete
Realmwalker
The Dragonborn would never succeed without that gamer behind the controller... A "modern girl in Skyrim" fanfiction. Bored of her quiet life in a small town, Adelaide wishes for a real adventure... Meanwhile in Skyrim, Catia has no idea what to do with her life, but she feels called to something more than being a merchant in Cyrodiil... This is fanfiction, which means some characters, settings, and plot elements are not mine. The cover came from a free download at getwallpapers.com that I found by googling "Skyrim scenery." Marked "mature" for occasional graphic descriptions of canon typical violence, mild vulgarity, suggestive situations, and references to sex and other intimate activities, but I do not write explicit content. Also, heads up, the main character is not the Dragonborn.Complete
The Dragonborn's Curse
Torn between the wild loyalty of Aela the Huntress and the dark allure of Serana, the Dragonborn walks a path of blood and destiny. As war rages and the hunt for the Elder Scrolls begins, one choice will change her fate forever-werewolf, vampire, or something far more dangerous. In the shadows of Skyrim, love and power are never without sacrifice. A WLW Fanfiction following the Dawnguard/Serana questline (becoming a vampire). It follows a lot of the story and script, but with variation and expansion. There's a lot of romance, a love triangle, and spicy smut. Much of the story is based off of my most recent playthrough- I had never met Serana before and I truly loved Aela the Huntress as my companion, but once I met Serana, I threw Aela to the wolves, so to speak. I had to write a fanfiction of how I would have loved for the story to go, tying in details from the game. ***Please note, this is an LGBTQIA+ work. If you are not comfortable with that, please abandon ship*** ***If you are here strictly for the smut and don't care for the rest of the storyline, just jump right ahead to the last chapter.*** (I will be posting this on other websites in the future so if you stumble across it elsewhere, it should also be under the name Dakota Parker. I'll share where I post it when I post it in other places in case others have a preferred reading cites.)Complete
Honor and Glory
Book One of the Honor and Glory Trilogy After training for over a year to fulfill her destiny as Dragonborn and defeat Alduin, Ylva knew she would need a challenge. Joining the Companions in Whiterun seemed like the only guild she could ever call home. But she still doesn't feel quite settled. None of the Companions know she's the Dragonborn, the savior of Skyrim. And she doesn't want them to know. What would they say if they knew? Would they respect her? Or would they hate her and tell her to leave? Would they scoff at the idea that a woman barely into her adulthood had been the one to save them? Maybe not all of them, but Vilkas, one of the most respected members within the Circle, and one of the most honor-bound men she has ever met, can't seem to fathom that thought. Because of this, Ylva doesn't know if she could ever tell her new family who she truly is. NOTE: I do not own Skyrim, the Companions, or any of the dialogue from this game. This is a fanfiction and a fanfiction only; I only own my original characters and dialogue. Sequel: To Kill A DragonbornComplete
