Things Gabriella has Knitted (or Crocheted) for Everyone:

First, (nearly) everyone has gotten a pair of socks from her as a “welcome to the brotherhood” gift.

(In alphabetical order)

—

🐺 Arnbjorn: A bright red knitted sweater as a wedding present. He’s only worn it once. (He jokes that it's not his style but he secretly loves it. He doesn't want to ruin it on accident.)

—

🔪 Astrid: A black and red striped knitted cowl. As a wedding present. Also a matching pair of gloves.

—

🩸 Babette: A crocheted doll to better help her "innocent child" ruse + several knitted dresses in many colors. Gabriella loves trying out new patterns. And because Babette’s small, she doesn’t need as much yarn. Win win.

—

♥️ Cicero: Nothing. Though she was working on her “welcome to the sanctuary” socks for him before he attacked Astrid and Veezara.

—

☄️ Festus Krex: Black, knitted fingerless gloves (his hands get cold and stiff sometimes.) They look simple at first, but actually have a quite complex stitching pattern on them. Also a black scarf and hat (with string pom-pom.)

—

🦋 Nazir: some hard-soled slippers and a deep red tote bag (with black hand print artfully knitted in.)

—

🦎 Veezara: Bright, garish horn cozies. It was a gag gift. He loves them.

—

Bonus round

🐈‍⬛ Sajjah (OC:) A thick n’ chunky, mottled black & gray blanket (crocheted.) as well as a matching cowl + gloves set. They were working on a hat design but couldn’t figure out how it would work with her ears before the sanctuary was attacked.

Miraak headcanon(s) I’ve had for ages:

— Miraak has become more of an entity than a person after so much time in Apocrypha.

— He’s been able to retain his mind/conscience. Everything else, not so much.

— What he is seen wearing in-game (his mask, robes, etc.) isn’t exactly being worn anymore. He’s just sort of... become those things, if that makes any sense. His physical form is limited to them.

TES Bosmer Headcanons

1. Because Bosmer mainly live in forests secluded from other civilizations, clothing is minimal. It is not uncommon for females to walk around with their breasts exposed.

2. They are not particularly fond of fish. Not only is it difficult to find, it's also incredibly hard to keep fresh in the tree houses.

3. All Bosmer learn archery from a young age, while sword and shield is reserved for the militia. Daggers are mainly used by hunters and/or assassins.

4. They love pets! Their "animal allegiance" makes finding an animal companion easy.

5. Continuing #4, felines like cougars are a favorite. Wolves and hounds are a close second.

6. They have a plant equivalent of Skooma: it's basically hallucinogenic tobacco. However because of the Green Pact most of them don't consume it. They let the outsiders figure that out.

7. Because they are more "romantically inclined" than the other elven races, it is not unusual for a family to have four or five kids.

TES Argonian Headcanons

1. Because they are cold-blooded, Argonians do very poorly in the tundra regions like Skyrim and northern Cyrodiil. If available they will bundle up in fur coats and other warm articles.

2. A general indicator of health is by looking at their scales: if the scales are shiny and clean, the Argonian is in good health. On the contrary, if the scales are dull and flakey, there's a high chance the Argonian is ill.

3. Argonians with slit pupils have snake-like tongues (long and pointed), whereas the ones with round pupils have frog-like tongues (rounded).

4. When they lay eggs, the eggs will come out roughly the size of a human infant and will grow to the size of an Argonian's head before hatching.

5. Eggs are usually laid in clutches of three or four.

6. While Argonians can breathe underwater, they have trouble breathing in muddy or polluted waters. It's similar to humans and smokey air.

7. Mudcrabs are a favorite food, whereas slaughterfish is more of an acquired taste. Some enjoy it, some don't.

Headcanon(s):

Irileth, Teldryn, and Geldis have known each other since the beginning of the fourth era.

Geldis and Irileth met towards the end of 4E 4, just a few months before the Red Year, and it wasn’t until the day Baar Dau fell and Red Mountain erupted — the 3rd of Sun’s Dawn, 4E 5 — that they found met Teldryn. The three of them eventually became close friends, and going separate ways wasn’t something any of them planned on.

At least until the Great War came around. But that’s a story for another time.

[discerning-the-dunlain]

Headcanon: Teldryn has one of the worst cases of Resting Bitch Face the planet of Nirn has ever seen.

[discerning-the-dunlain]

Headcanon: Aphia Velothi is secretly a badass. A real bad bitch.

I can’t stop thinking that Ysgramor must have been a Dragon Priest or at least have some connection to the Dragon Cult, there is no way 500 people got rid of all is not most of the Falmer with out the aid of dragons.

Sure Ahzidal’s enchantments helped,  he was the one who enchanted Wuuthrad to be deadly to the Mer races (Which doesn’t affect Orcs for some reason even if they are classified as Mer..... or Bretons who are half Mer, but the game classifies them as humans so I’ll let that one slide for now)

Anyways I do like that idea so I’ll be adding that to my list of headcanons.
