♥ How did their relationship start? for EVERYONE. Well, not Lys because you did her already.
Oof. Owch. Why do you hate my fingers so? :P
Tziska had just returned to Silvermoon after a brief stint as a fashion model to drum up business for her tattoo parlor. She was sitting on a ledge and people-watching when this Forsaken with a gun slung across his back walked up and sat down next to her. They kvetched about the world, the perils of undeath, the passing fashion in the city, and even delved into some philosophy. He asked her what the business she did was - and in a rare moment of honesty, she told him exactly why she did tattoo work (to feed her addiction to causing pain). So Cadmus asked for a tattoo. That might’ve just been it, just friends bonding over the things that make undeath suck less, but then he lost an arm and an eye in a mission gone sideways and she offered to make him a prosthetic in glass that could restore his sight... For a price. Her price was fourteen days of his time.
Xamasyn met his scoundrel at a bar and offered to mend his wounded arm. They couldn’t stay away from one another after that.
Daephrin had made friends with a mischievous slip of a human girl in Shattrath. Together, they skinny-dipped in Aldor fountains and got drunk in seedy Lower City bars. She slipped a magic mickey in his drink and discovered the dark secret of the ink on his arm and the way his curse turned the agony into ecstasy. Seeing an opportunity for some fun, she convinced him to go along with a scheme to present him as a birthday present to an imperious shadow priest friend of hers. A few days later, he ran into the priest again and they began to dance warily around a magnetic something between them. Shit hit the fan in Shattrath and the human girl and her draenei companions had to flee the city; her two elf friends fled lest they be guilty by association. Together, they trekked the length of the Eastern Kingdoms, gathering herbs to sell and camping in the woods. Their every moment was electrically charged and when the storm finally broke, it was because Daephrin dared to call the priest’s bluff. He’s been a perceptive little charmer and pushing his lover’s emotional boundaries ever since.
Xeremuriis happened to be working off her keep at an inn at Light’s Hope when she ran into a cute vindicator who had just pissed off his commander for the last time. She rescued him to be her bodyguard instead.
Ikeilos was placed in remedial anchorite training for expressing views contrary to the teachings of the Light. The mentor he was placed with turned out to be exactly the kind of teacher he really needed.
