Send me ‘Smooch’ and my character will kiss yours. Send me ‘Snug’ and my character will hug yours.

((Alternately, you can send a url and my character will kiss/hug that character)).

It is SEXUAL SUNDAY. Y'all have yet to make my muse blush. Fix this by putting extremely uncomfortable questions in my ask.

Give my muse an item and see how they react.

How old do I need to be exactly to be considered a historical artefact?

Orero stares at him, then scrawls on a spare scrap of paper:

Older than Neloth.

A note is posted on the marketplace job boards of several towns

To adventurers both stationary and passing through:

Orero Romoren, historian, is willing to pay a negotiable sum for items of historical significance extracted from ruins including but not limited to scrolls, tablets, ceremonial items, and technology. Also desired but not anticipated: items of daedric origin and intact dwemeri spider automatons.

Payment will take the form of: septims, gems, or items of appropriate monetary value but lacking in historical note.

Romoren can be found in the Markarth area. Inquire at Silver-Blood Inn.

Evil Asks. - These are pretty fucking interesting

A. If you could get away with one murder in your lifetime without any legal, social, or emotional repercussions, would you kill someone?

B. What is your first thought when you receive a message on Tumblr, are you excited for the idea of someone from potentially the other side of the world wanting to talk to you or fearful that someone will criticize you?

C. Have you ever looked down on someone because you thought your religious views were superior?

D. Would you rather know everything the universe has to offer but in exchange lose all emotions or remain the way you are now?

E. If you could live and be healthy without sleeping or eating/drinking, which would you cut out of your life?

F. If you could take on the exact body and form of anyone else on Earth, who would it be?

G. Would you rather burn or freeze to death?

H. If it meant it would solve all world hunger, war, disease and bigotry, would you spend the rest of eternity in Hell?

I. Was the first crush in your life something you had or something someone had on you?

J. Could you live without having sex ever (again) in exchange for eternal youth?

K. Have you ever watched a full length pornographic movie?

L. The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?

M. If you could have the ability to manipulate matter or energy, which would you choose?

N. What was the worst nightmare you ever had?

O. Would you rather spend one year with your one true love just to never see them again or the rest of your life with second best?

P. All the sequels/remakes/adaptations/rip-offs in movies nowadays, good or bad?

Q. Would you rather be dirt poor and emotionally fulfilled in life or be rich beyond imagination and emotionally dissatisfied for life?

R. Do you have any (secret) feelings of bigotry to any group of people?

S. Would you rather be the only person in the world that can read minds or have everyone else in the world be able to read minds except for your own?

T. If everyone in the world would automatically only know one language, which language would you choose?

U. If you were old enough and not in a situation where it would be inappropriate, would you sleep with one of your (past) school teachers/professors?

V. A world without religion, good, bad, neutral?

W. The men's rights movement, legitimate cause or laughable, and why?

X. You can eliminate one of your five senses to substantially strengthen the others, which one and would you do it?

Y. Do looks mean anything to you? Don't lie, could you fall in love with someone you thought was ugly?

Z. Can you understand the mindset and logic used by the opposite spiritual opinion? An atheist understanding the belief in a higher power and vice versa.

"Do excuse me," a blind Altmer approaches the duo, "but I've become a bit... turned around. Where are we?"

Orero looks at the obviously unseeing eyes of the altmer, and sighs. Laughing, Geirni reaches out to put a hand on their shoulder. 

"Mountains o' Markarth, friend! Where'd ye have a mind t' go?"

A Dwemer Lexicon and an Elder Scroll. And Keening because why the heck not?

Orero is alarmed at the presence of Keening, and wraps it carefully in leather without touching it- after making several sketches and notes on it, of course- for return to a Tribunal Temple.

The Elder Scroll is completely fascinating, of course. For fear of going blind as well as mute, Orero doesn't dare to open it, but as with Keening, takes measurements and notations and sketches for her own reference library before packing it away. Maybe she can find a Moth Priest to read it later.

The Lexicon, though. The Lexicon she knows of, can work and open, given the right equipment in the right ruin, and it is the Lexicon Orero packs neatly away in her satchel of personal effects for the next time she and Geirni encounter a library-city.

Send me the FLAWS or QUIRKS you've noticed my muse has.

Let’s see who’s been paying attention.

HOW BIG IS YOUR DICK

Big enough, friend! -loud laughing-

[regretfulcrimsoneyes-blog]

Bother my muse with really personal questions.

"You would have loved Mournhold. There was a ruin unearthed near the end of the Third Era. The Nerevarine was the only one to go inside it as far as I know." Then Endris fumbled with his bag nervously. “I mean, you might have been there, I shouldn’t have made the assumption you wouldn’t know about it."

[beardsandscrolls]

Orero's expression gets, if possible, more mournful. Her handwriting is positively morose now, if the written word could be morose.

'I was almost 124 when the Nerevarine occupied Morrowind. If my parents had allowed me, or if I'd gotten permission from someone, I'd have been there in a blink of a guar's eye. All of my petitions were refused. I wasn't even allowed to have an audience to ask anything about it.'

[beardsandscrolls]

Endris thought for a moment. “I thought all the ruins round here had been raided already, apart from centurions and things. They seem to be infinite. Were you looking for something specific?"

[beardsandscrolls]

Hearing this, Orero blew out a sigh, looking glum.  Her handwriting this time was slanted and lazy, almost as dejected as she felt.

'ruins, dwemer or nordic, that hadn't been robbed of everything of historical significance yet. if the treasure hunters have been through, everything's going to have been ruined.'

"No, but I want to change that and that’s all that matters. It’s all well and good to want to do something that helps a lot of people, but in the end the most specialized and advanced magic comes from people doing things for their  own gain." Endris shifted uncomfortably, it was embarrassing to talk about the nature of his research.

[beardsandscrolls]

Orero blinked. Oh. Well. Niche demand, after all- a niche of one. And he- she? - he, apparently -had a point, as to the discovery of specialized and advanced magic. That was true. The nature of it seemed odd to her, but then again, anyone who accused Orero of being anything but odd herself was frankly blind to her utter obsession with history and artifacts.

So there was that.

In the end, she just shrugged, and reached down to pick up her cupcake again, taking another bite out of it. 

'best of luck.' She jotted, then further down: 'curiosity: noticed any ruins in the area, preferably unraided by idiot treasure hunters?'

Bards College(for both of them)

Tell a story:

Miss Orero gets righ' involved in her lookin and studyin in ruins 'n barrows, she does. Why, more 'n once I've had t' pick 'er up an' sling 'er o'er my shoulder t' make a run for it, when th' spooks get t' be too many! 

Once, she kept ahold of whatever it was she was lookin at, mutterin t' herself while I was runnin! Kep' it all th' way t' the barrow exit, 'n yelled at me after for makin her leave all her writin' instruments behind.

I had t' go back in later, after th' spooks calmed down, t' get 'em back for 'er!

The print is messy, but readable.

'for some time after I escaped danger in Morrowind, I explored the ruins of the heartland elves, called ayleids.

previously, I had not known that undead populated the heartlandish ruins. 

to my good luck, welkynd and varla stones served as acceptable temptation to draw hireling bodyguards to my purpose despite the walking corpses. to this day, I keep some few of them to light my way in the ruins. geirni is satisfied enough with the gold acquired from selling historically useless but monetarily valuable items found inside.

my favorite heartlandish ruin is wendelbek. not only was it large and rich in history, but I also stumbled on a dark welkynd stone in the sel aran mathmeldi chambers- a type of attack stone, put simply- and was able to extract and spell it to my requirements. it is now a form of protection for myself.

the necromancers were a bother, though.
