Make tea not love

In which a pedantic spinster obsesses about eclectic stuff. Current obsession with Thorin Oakenshield has spawned a sprawling fanfiction, and will spawn a few literary spoofs in the future. Illustrations will happen. The epic Rohan fanfic can be found here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9680857/1/The-Linden-Tree or here: http://archiveofourown.org/works/1322614/chapters/2752480 Other obsessions include Salomé/John the Baptist, opera, decadent art, Art Nouveau, the 1920s, and so on and so forth, in no particular order.

“Queen Calanthe refused [Eist’s] proposal three times after King Roegner died, despite the two of them gliding around each other like courting swans.”

Get you an SO who looks at you the way King Eist looks at Queen Calanthe

[dead-scorpio]

Give me one (1) fic about Eist being a good father figure for Ciri. Is that so much to ask?

Honestly I loved Eist and I thought he was fantastic. The more I see him the more I like him, and I find his and the queens gradual romance based in mutual affection and respect (and his respect for her as a warrior) awesome. It was a nice change up having the woman be bloodthirsty and ruthless and the man be the voice of reason and he brought with him wealth and a navy into the marriage instead of her "marrying up". Their whole dynamic is really lovely to me.

hello friends and loved ones, does anyone know the calanthe/eist ship name? i have Needs

[im-idle]

Today’s mood: Calanthe displaying big dick energy and arousing Eist simultaneously.

Eist’s reaction is the embodiment of “God, I want you so bad”.
