Liv and Verandis HC :

Verandis often calls Liv "my love" with a soft voice he reserves for her.

And Liv often says "I love you" to remind him he deserves to be loved.

[sephiratales]

I really hesitate to buy a character slot to remake Liv and screenshot her story again.

(so I can have more screenshots of Verandis 👀)

[sephiratales]

As my obsession for Verandis has rekindle, let me share some HC.

During the Markarth prologue, Gwendis sees how much Liv and Verandis care for each other. Gwendis has never seen Verandis watching someone with such puppy and loving eyes.

Of course, as Liv and him are both idiots in love who don't want to make the first step, Gwendis lectures Verandis and suggests him to find Liv and tell his feelings. Because they are driving her crazy.

Time for domestic Verandis x Liv HC

- Once the psijic found a way to allow Verandis to be away from the Heart, he and Liv move in the Antiquarian gallery near Morthal.

- As Liv is now a retiree adventurer, she opens a forge and becomes a blacksmith. She has command from Morthal most of the time, but sometimes Svana asks her for pretty ceremonial weapons and armors.

- Even if they are not married, people in Morthal call Verandis Liv's husband.

- They have the visits of the Ravenwatch, when Fenn is here, Mjolen is not far away (she's a kind of a grandmother for him). Lyris and Sai also come from time to time.

- Verandis takes care of the house while Liv works at the forge. Even if he doesn't need to eat, he cooks for her.

- During Liv's pregnancy, he is very attentive without being too protective.

- Once Nallia is born, Verandis takes care of her during the night, but he is always there during the day as he does not really need to sleep. Liv often wakes up in the morning seeing their daughter asleep on Verandis' chest.

- The Ravenwatch are over protective siblings.

I guess this pic is a sort of a closure for Liv and Verandis. Finally, they can be together.

Headcanon time They live for a moment in Blackreach, until Liv manages to convice Verandis to meet with the Psijics. They find a way for him to leave the Black heart for a longer time. As Liv’s mother had inherited an Antiquarian House she had give her daughter, they both moved in it. Liv now works as a blacksmith for Morthal and sometimes for Svana. She and Verandis are happy with this life

(and it get happier once Nallia is born because well...magical pregnacy!)

Tears of happiness - Verandis x female Vestige

I may have feel the urge to post something on AO3 about Liv and Verandis.

Warning, slight lemon

HC : Eight years had passed between those two screenshots

[sephiratales]

Being lost in my headcanon, I'm picturing Verandis with baby Nallia asleep on his torso (and Liv's heart melting because they are too cute)

[sephiratales]

Markarth spoilers

At the end, Liv leaves the celebration to join Verandis underground. He is surprised to see her and to hear she chooses to stay with him. As she was always passionate by the dwemer, she can study them and spend time in the library.

She takes the elevator when she needs to see the sunlight or to buy things.

HC : one day, they find a way for Verandis to stay longer away from the Heart and they live in a house Liv has inherited from her mother.

ESO headcanon non sense - Liv and Verandis

Now Markarth has ended, I'm thinking about making Nallia Liv and Verandis' daughter, instead of Liv and Sotha Sil's daughter. I headcanon that after the end of Markarth, Liv offer to Verandis to contact the Psijic order to help him being able to go away from the Dark Heart without suffering any counter effect (because well, Liv knows powerful mages she helped to save their island, they can help her too. Plus, she is a good friend of Val).

Magic happens and Verandis can leave the Dark Heart (I HC he has a sort of amulet he needs to recharge at the Dark Heart from time to time). Liv and Verandis can finally enjoy being together, everything is fluff and hapiness...and unexpected result of not really being a vampire anymore for the Count. And poof, Liv's pregnant. Okay, that may sound totally dumb, but as in my previous HC, Verandis adopted Nallia, and now he has white, he can be Nallia's biological father. And I just want them to be happy.

Oc Vestige x Verandis HC (GREYMOOR SPOILERS AND BAD ENGLISH) : Prior becoming a Vestige and even meeting Ver’drani, Liv meets Verandis Ravenwatch when she visits an aunt in Rivenspire (whom had married a Breton person). As she wants to save everyone and defeat the monsters, she offers her help to Verandis, she does not know of his true nature. Of course, she begins to develop feeling towards him and it’s really difficult for her to learn that he’s a vampire. But he teaches her monsters are...not always monsters. In a foolish moment, he even promises her to share a bit of his time when everything is over. Not need to say how much heartbroken Liv is at the end of the quest. She swears to Verandis she’ll find a way and he sadly smiles to her.

Later, when she is one of the Vestige (HC : Elvi is also one) and she can wander in Coldharbor, she tries to reach him but it is impossible. Even Cadwell cannot locate him, which is quite a bad news. It’s a huge frustration for her, they are in the same plane of Oblivion, but he’s still out of her reach. She is stubborn and does not give up, she has made a promise. She even asks for Sotha Sil’s help, but he is unable to give her what she wants.

And then she meets Fennorian in Skyrim and discovers about the Gray Host, she connects the dots and understands Verandis was a member. She has seen how to bring them back, she trusts Fennorian to find a way to bring the Count back too.

And whatever happens (go to hell ZoS if you kill him) in the next DHoS dlc, Verandis will be back and safe. He hugs her when he sees her (of course he also hug Fenn!) and finally those years of fighting for him are worth it. 

They enjoy a well deserve peaceful time in Auridia, where Verandis meets Liv’s daughter Nallia and becomes her second Dad.

Training routine and then FIGHT ! (and then get drunk and party a lot until the next day)

[sephiratales]

Gladiator AU for Liv. Instead of meeting Ver’drani, Elvi and Drachan, things went wrong and she became a gladiator. I got the idea that she is enslaved and then sold for her fighting skill.

And she is waaaay more shred and muscular than the pic (and I need to do the Unhallowed Graves in vet because I want the bloodrune body marking)

[sephiratales]

Just because I like the screenshot. Two Nords judging you (Liv feat Lyris Titan)
