"Nurse me" or "Fight me" //I CAN'T DECIDE, so whichever one sounds more fun!!!

DRABBLE PROMPTS

     She’s cold all over - too cold to feel, too cold to hurt, just numb, which is a welcome relief. She doesn’t feel like her insides are being sucked out through the head of a needle any more; always a plus. She knew stabbing herself in the side was going to hurt - and maybe she should have guessed that having your soul leak out of you and be devoured by another being would be kind of unpleasant - but nobody actually told her. It’s not like she has a precedent for that kind of thing.

It’s either a really shitty way to die, or a really noble one, and she still isn’t sure which. Does she have time to lie here and consider it before she’s removed entirely from existence? How long does it take to die, exactly? If nothing hurts, then it must be over, but how is she still thinking if her soul just got turned into an angry old man’s breakfast-

Then, very suddenly, everything hurts again.

She’s cold still, but now she can feel her body - she can feel the way her muscles are twitching and electricity is crackling through her flesh, dispersing into the ground beneath her. She gurgles something unintelligible. Warmth flows over her side, and she twitches at the uneasy feeling of magicka pulling her flesh together. Sounds are returning to her, slowly, tinny and distant at first but growing clearer. She realises the heavy breathing isn’t her.

“Naal fin bormahsemoro-!” Miraak’s voice is strained. She cracks open one eye, then the other, half blinded by the sudden light but fighting through it to peer down at him. "Gods confound-” suddenly he notices her eyes are open, and then there is a hand on her cheek, and her vision fills with dull gold. Grey eyes glare at her - he doesn’t just look mad, he looks furious. “Why did you do that!? What possessed you-!?”

He’s yelling in her face but things still sound that little bit far away. She finds herself smiling, her arms as frail as withered plants as she lifts them, puts her hands on his shoulders. He goes still. It takes a moment to summon the strength to speak, and her voice comes out hoarse and weak.

“So you do care-”

She can’t say she isn’t expecting the smack - it doesn’t stop her laughing, though.

KISS FOR AYALEA MAYBE?!?!?!!!

FIRST THREE IN MY INBOX GET KISSES meme

     First; he barely seems human. What hides beneath the cold, glowering gold she has no idea, but she isn’t sure it’s flesh and blood. His voice is the only thing that is animated, the rest of him stands like stone, never flinching, never tiring. He moves without fault, as if he knows exactly what is going to happen and has already accounted for it ten steps before he gets there. She images a Dwemer construct - a twisted necromantic creation - a Seeker - wearing his robes, hiding beneath his mask. He could be any of them. She wonders if she will ever know.

Then; they spar, and this time - for the first time - she almost manages to dodge his blade. He catches her on the hip rather than the ribs, and she falls, cursing it - but as she moves to stand, she finds his hand offered to her. She takes it. Even through the thick leather of his gloves, she feels his radiating heat. She imagines his veins running with molten rock, glowing through his skin. She can reconcile him with human skin now - once he’s said "Pruzah, so you have been learning.” and proven himself capable of something like gentleness. 

Finally; when she screams her own soul into its full power, and she is encased in light, feeling the thrumming beat of her dragon’s heart - she understands. He acts as a dragon encased in mortal flesh. He is the one that believes he is not human. She is the one that knows otherwise. The dragon in him is unafraid of her - but it is the man that sees her resplendent in fire and cups her cheeks in leathered hands, raises his mask, and kisses her on her forehead, crowned with horns. His words may move mountains; but it is in his touch that he speaks of his heart, and she is the first in four eras to hear from it.

I think it's actually worse than the original Skyrim. First it wouldn't start, but then it did but weird vertical bars started appearing. And there is something wrong with movement/sensitivity/it's a mess imo.

i played it like for five minutes and honestly nothing changed since my pc has to run on low garphics so it is like original skyrim

//It's no better than the original. So you're not missing out on anything. I had the vertical bars things happen too, and the graphics didn't look all that different. I was totally disappointed.

//I'm lucky that my potato can barely run original skyrim ;-;

     in conclusion: we are all poor but on the plus side nobody needs to spend money on the remaster when they could just have mods

“Do you need me to kill someone for you?” //Was feeling ballsy, so have a meme from a stranger!! xD

Lasair looked up at the assassin with a bit of surprise. Not at the question itself, but that someone had approached her with the offer. Usually the subterfuge, espionage, and assassinations were kept close to Leliana and her subordinates.

She paused for a moment, before a wry smile spread across her face. “Well, if you could take out Corypheus, that would lift a pretty great burden from my shoulders,” she joked.

Ox-eye Daisy //ofconsandcoin xD

Send my muse some flowers and they’ll react to their meaning.

Ox-eye Daisy — “I might learn to love you.”

For a long moment, Madlen didn’t know what to say. She could only blink up at Brynjolf with gleaming eyes, light shuddering in them like stars. Those words were the ones she’d been longing to hear. Some confirmation that all this was going somewhere; something to give her some hope that she wouldn’t merely be tossed aside.

Clearing her throat and wetting her lips, she leaned forward slightly, anxiously, a hesitant hand resting on his hip.

“Yes?” she breathed, lashes fluttering, a small smile curling on her lips. “Well, I’m-- I’m happy to hear it.”

4, 8, 14, & 21!

// Thank you for the ask!!!

4: How do you get into your OC’s mindset to write for them? How do you find the muse for them?

I’ve been writing Madlen for over a year now, and I’ve been RPing for longer still! Probably approaching five or six years. And, honestly? I’ve never had a particular way of finding my muse? It’s either there, or it isn’t; I either feel it, or I don’t. 

When it comes to Madlen, I’m just hopelessly in love with her. She’s my stupid little daughter, and writing her is a pleasure that comes naturally. However, sometimes I do need to take a step back and think: what would Madlen say to that? On occasion, I have a tendency to have her say what I want her to say, rather that what is in character for her, and that’s something I’m trying to beat!

8: What does your OC look for in a significant other? Are they looking at all?

Madlen is a romantic - as you might expect from someone who is a follower of Mara. So, really, she’s always on the lookout for an SO whenever she’s not in a relationship. It’s not that she feels she needs anybody else to complete her, but she enjoys giving and receiving affection, and thinks love is something sacred, something divine.

As for what she looks for, Madlen tends to look for men who will be there for her through thick and thin. She wants to know she can rely on them. That said, she can make stupid, impulsive decisions, and go for guys who, really, have no qualities she should find desirable. In the end, she falls for everyone.

14: Pet peeves. Tell us what would really tick them off. Do they have a Berserk Button?

Madlen really dislikes it when men give women a hard time; she also just dislikes cruelty in general? So if she comes across someone particularly cruel, their entire existence will probably tick her off. There are exceptions to that rule, of course… And in the DB!verse, such things bother her much less.

I don’t know if she has a Berserk Button as such. If already annoyed, and pushed, she will lose her temper. But she’s not the kind of person to fly off the handle after a single comment or action.

21: Name an embarrassing situation that your muse has been in.

Probably @diivinejusticiar‘s Emiranthir coming home to find her wearing his tunic. That got her a little flustered for sure.
