#// have to wax poetic about sven blue-shield

[shellheadtm-a]

A, M, N, D /  K R S

A.) What is their preferred class? (Battlemage, nightblade, spellsword, ect) he’s a spellsword.  his favoritest most developed form of magic is destruction - specifically storm and fire magic (honestly did no one else see that coming?).  he’s a one-hander with a blade, and does actually prefer a blade, maces are no fun.  contrary to this, though, he’s a heavy armor wearer.  and i mean full heavy armor, he’s the kind that wears his helmet with the whole kit.  it makes his ears hurt where it pins them to the side of his head, but he doesn’t like being picked out for a mer in a crowd.  he also dabbles in conjuration magic a little, likes to summon flame and storm atronachs, and knows a shitton about soul trapping.  he only uses white souls, doesn’t think using the black ones are moral (considering those are the souls of sentient beings), and he’s got a drawer full in the mage’s study of the house full of black soul gems of various kinds that he’s keeping to see if he can figure out a way to get the souls out without sending them to the soul cairn.

M.) What specific individuals do they consider their enemies? calcelmo.  he hates calcelmo so, so much.  he sees him and that’s it, he’s Ready To Kill.  he doesn’t, obviously, that would be Wrong, but boy he rubs tnathas the wrong way completely.  for one, he’s totally wrong about literally everything.  two, he’s an arrogant prick.  three, he’s got that museum with people’s shit on display and his whole attitude is...how would you like if i robbed your family’s grave and put it up like decorations in my house???  ulfric’s a close contender, he’s an asshole.  that’s it, that’s all, tnathas has no time for him (that’s right, ulfric, you’d have to schedule an appointment that never would happen if you wanted to talk to him, how bout them apples).  those are the two big ones.  like there are people he just flat out doesn’t like for petty reasons, but those two make him so damn mad.

N.) What specific individuals do they consider close friends? he’s on...okay terms?  with serana?  they met when he was running with the dawnguard (well...i say that like it’s past tense, he’s still dawnguard, but you know).  urag gro-shub at the college he’s cool with.  there’s etienne (you know, stephen strange) at the college, even if etienne is never invited over ever.  uhhhhhh, he’s okay with most of the thieves guild.  lamashtu and lahar, who must be protected at all costs.  he’s on friendly terms with a lot of blacksmiths, considering.  but i’d argue overall that while...he’s nice enough, he’s friendly enough, he doesn’t...necessarily get close to a lot of people, and he has his tiny circle of what he considers family and he’s content and satisfied with that.

D.) How is their love life? is there we you just want me to sing sven’s praises, because that’s literally all i can do here.  it’s going very well, thanks for asking.  hooking up with a werewolf is weird, but he’s gotten used to it.  there’s probably lots of nudity around the house.  not even the sexy kind, we talked about how he’s a hedonistic little caligula, right?  he’s content.  he’s as happy as any version of tony ever really gets, probably.  i mean, it fucking took him long enough to realize sven was being very direct about what he wanted, but now that that’s all sorted out...He loves one (1) werewolf, and that’s that.  I’m not gonna sit here and like...Tell you about his azure eyes or anything, okay, you already know all of that bullshit.  

K.) What are classes they are interested in but have no talent for? alchemy.  he’s balls at it.  and balls at growing plants.  he makes terrible potions, he just...can’t make gel, he’s more a blacksmithing and enchanting kind of guy when it comes right down to it.  but he still goes into a cave or walks along the roads and comes back with like.  loads of ingredients and dumps them on sven because he cares.

R.) Vampire, lycanthrope, or neither, and why? And if either, what type of lycan, or are they a vampire lord? so...funny story, he’s almost become a vampire twice now!  i mean you knew that but not everybody knows that.  sven’s saved his ass both times, because sven pays attention where tnathas does not.  tnathas is not personally interested in being either/or, it’s not the kind of upgrade he’d go for given the chance.  he’s not a big fan of vampires in general, considering he’s a member of the dawnguard, and as for werewolves...well.  he’s got sven.  that’s enough of that.  he’s dwemeri.  he’s not interested in giving any kind of daedra power over him, because he cannot and will not acknowledge them having power of him.  he doesn’t think they do.  augmentations that require some kind of pledge of fealty are an auto-no from him all the way around.

S.) What's their preference in terms of romantic partners? must be tall, blond, beefy.  have like 0 patience and still manage to be a ray of sunshine.  must be blunt to the point of causing suspiciousness in squirrelly mer.  nice shoulders are a bonus.  sven.  you have to be sven.  in all seriousness, though, that trait of handing his heart to anyone that looks at him for like .2 seconds still is there, he’s just a little more skittish?  and like...coming right out the gate the idea of romance or sex or any of that was literally the last thing on his mind, you know, he was busy reeling from...everything.  he did...uh.  have a few encounters.  with who is none of your business?  before he even met sven, but w/e, it is what it is, you must be one (1) wolf boy at this point for him to give a shit, it’s really very sad.  the hearteyes are so fucking real.
