A place to ponder over different fandoms. Now mainly The Arcana, but if some of you will appear to be into some Forgotten Realms or The Elder Scrolls content… we’re gonna thrive
Don’t let Narsis nowhere near the kitchen, please. Unless you want Romeo and Juliet Nirn Version
He drags his nord assistant around exactly for that. If they are tired of his cooking, or Narsis forgot him somewhere again… Akatosh preserve you
Of course he is the best cook this continent has ever seen, and of course his entire academy has begged him to make his special cake over and over again
In the luckiest outcome Narsis just stands beside them and learns gives advice. But if the romantic urge to impress strikes…
“It is as simple as that, my dearest! For the most potent of tastes we use this unprepossessing petal… What is poisonous, again?”
Mannimarco can shove ingredients into the oven and watch it burn. Or make a couple of soups. They are tasty and nourishing! But he needs to… get used to the concept of setting up an hourglass
He doesn’t want to talk about that time when soup was burning.
He hasn't enjoyed the taste of food in a long time, too occupied with the impending acquisition of divinity. But if they find themselves in the open — a little trip instead of a portal, you know — it would be easier to take the opportunity to admire Mannimarco’s nimble hands. At first he looks just a little bit less concentrated, than in the laboratory, but soon loosens up enough to tell where he learned this particular recipe
“What importance there is in keeping track of time, when you can measure it in deeds?”
Vanus is surprisingly decent and unsurprisingly smug about that. He’s had his share of wandering, what did they expect?
Cannot handle spices for the life of him. Either adds too many different ones and too much of them, or they can’t feel a single trace. Calls it experimenting, refuses to elaborate
Yes, Vanus loves to experiment, and nothing will stop him. If they run out of ingredients, he knows at least nine replacements for each. Are they all edible? Practice will tell. How did he live up to adulthood?
Every second time will spoon-feed them the first bite
“Behold the embodiment of food perfection, little spark”
Ember is not very picky when it comes to what to eat today. She’ll be fine with whatever they both find along the way! It’s been that way for the most of her life. You know, she prefers to borrow food, it’s much more time efficient! And she is an occupied sorceress! What do they mean you can’t borrow food? Hm…
“it’s only YOU who can’t eat fish raw! Ha!”
Mirri’s cooking is rich and simple. She seems to be able to make everything edible, using two leaves and a slice of ash yam.
Although she is a bit reluctant to try to cook something completely new, she eagerly peeks from behind their shoulder, when it’s their turn to make dinner. She seems afraid of spoiling the food if something goes wrong, so she keeps just watching
Sometimes Mirri makes enough to feed a dremora battalion… Family habits die hard
“One more bug delicacy joke, and you’ll be gathering fetcherflies for dinner”
Yes, that’s a new schedule. Something about different day length, did you know-
No, Faust is not bribed with snaccs, she’s just hanging out on the doorknob, why?
Oh, look how conveniently you are snuggled, now it will be considered a crime to separate yourselves, and you don’t want crimes in your house, do you?
He doesn’t want to hear anything about bribery being considered a crime
Asra really just wants to enjoy every minute you’re together, when nothing is bothering you or demanding immediate attention (which happens all the time, hard magicians’ life)
Mornings are the most suitable time, when you can speak unhurriedly, dream a little and plan your little next week’s adventure
Nadia
Nadia has to wake up early, even on holidays :(
That habit is ingrained so deeply that it is an outright surprise for her if you don’t share it. Everyone rise early to get everything done, no?..
It warms her heart to see you so relaxed and satisfied in your bedchambers like nowhere else
She leaves, but servants are already preparing everything for your awakening
Nadia will make up for all the skipped morning caresses in the afternoon-
Lots of kisses and tea brewed with petals will improve your mood, whichever way you woke up
One day you wake up and first thing you feel is the weight on the other side of the bed
Your eyes fly open just to see Nadia’s ruby ones filled with tenderness and adoration, as she observes you and smiles bright and soft at your expression
Only then you notice the lightest tracing of her elegant fingers caressing your pillow-marked cheek
Julian
Julian is headed straight to work upon waking up
This man’s body wakes up much later than his brain does — it occurs to him it’s time to eat only an hour or two after he dug into his notes
Do you like taking naps? Good
After a brief activity burst (which consist of wolfing down the delicious breakfast you brought him) he is back in bed
No, not a single movement for at least half an hour.
Perharps, besides…
Yeah, pillow fights, sounds incredible
May or may not pretend that you stabbed him with a narrow one to doze off a little
Are deadmen supposed to have such a death grip on their killers, huh?
Portia
Portia is an early bird
The earlier you wake up, the more time there is to get done with work and have fun!
Extremely energetic + wants you besides immediately
Before you know what is going on, she is already straddling you and tickling your sides
She wants to press her nose into yours until you wake up, to peer into your eyes with her bright blue ones. But she just can’t contain her excited giggling at the simple thought of the spooked little jump you’ll definitely make
She’ll get there one morning, don’t even doubt.
If you get too cranky, she will leave you be… for a week at most.
Muriel
Muriel will leave at dawn, desperately trying not to wake you. He doesn’t want to disturb you; it’s his chores after all
He ignores your demands to stop to consider every chore only his own
Will ask Inanna to check on you if he is wandering far into the forest. He knows you will be safe, it’s just… He feels more reassured this way
Congratulations, you are guarded by a big floofy wolf, who thinks to guard = to lie flat on you and sometimes poke her nose in yours
She’s right, honestly
If you are tough enough to sleep through that, prepare for the ultimate attack: breakfast
Riding proudly on the wolf’s back to the kitchen, you are greeted with a “good morning” hum
As you eat half-sleepily, Muriel adoringly studies your face, trying and failing to hide it
His own face turns slightly red, when you try to feed him a little bit of your portion, even though he has already eaten
You succeed.
Lucio
If it was up to him, he would be staying under the covers till the sun has passed its peak
Oh, wait, it is up to him. The deal is sealed then.
And he will be very delighted to have you in his arms
Carefully, you won’t be able to escape after indulging even once. Lazy and long mornings, stretches, laughter and adoring stares… Who would be, honestly?
After crawling out of the bed and eating it’s time to refine your day plans. Ones for evening are the most exciting
After that he will attend to his training
“You want all of me hard as steel, don’t you? ;)”
Will encourage you to join him and will literally beam if you say yes
