Abdirak x Donnick (aka Soup) sharing a little rest.

(anon is referring to this confession)

to the brother donnick submitter: i had never once thought about him but now i can't stop thinking of him welcoming a really late, hunger traveler, feeding them until they're sated, or so he thinks until he understands why this traveler is looking at him like that

and he's so young, too young for the temple. are Ilmater monks celibate? now they are. he has an aching need he can no longer resist, but at least he ends the day crying up to his good, just not the way Ilmater intended

Did I not post this here? Have some Soup

Another Donnick appreciator joins the front.

Soup! Soooooup!

(but, for real, I've been writing about this lovely Ilmatari and his complicated relationship with the priest of Ilmater's sworn enemy, Abdirak, for a little while now, and I'm obsessed.)

Brother Donnick appreciation post.... Do you want soup?

❤️ Jacob and Don!!! To celebrate the return of the kings 💕

"So what do you say, my Lord Duke?" 

Karo's voice wends its way through the music, the crowds and laughter and stamping feet, to reach his side. The half-elf thumps down onto the bench a moment later and Jacob moves swiftly to stop his cup from tumbling to the ground. There's colour on Karo's cheeks the same deep red as the punch they're all swigging like it'll never run dry. 

There's no time to chide Karo for the formal address- the elf doesn't give chance. It used to be a slight but now he flings it at Jacob like a pat on the back. 

"As fine a midwinter party as you've ever suffered through, isn't it?" 

When Jacob doesn't turn to follow his happy gaze across the room, Karo leans in close. There's no formality observed as he chuckles next to the duke's shoulder. "Better than a night stuck in a hall with half a dozen hearths. It was surely awful trapped up there at a high table with no one telling you the look on your face is turning the wine sour." 

Jacob's lips curl at the corner as he takes a sip of that wine. It's far from sour. He knows Karo spent the better part of the day mulling it over a fire with spices he'd been collecting all year. He knows it because Karo made sure to educate him after he simply said, it smells alright. 

"Isenholm doesn't have six hearths in its hall," Jacob retorts weakly. He turns his head a little. "Only five."

His smile is growing and it works- Karo barks out a merry laugh and finally claps him on the back with an open palm, thumping the duke so hard his wine jumps from the cup and down the front of his shirt. They laugh together until Karo's smile tempers down to something almost fond. 

"You're not stuck at a high table now, your Grace," he says with a sigh, and lifts his cup. He's got a finger extended to point across the celebration and Jacob does turn to follow this time. He twists all the way around and slings a leg out from under the table to sit comfortably and take in the view. 

The high thatched roof is keeping out the snow and the vast fire pit in the middle of the party, a tree-trunk burning long and low at its heart, is holding the cold at bay. That log will burn all night, but still the crowd is warmer. Firelight and candles turn the mist of the crowd's breath into a glowing haze above them, and every laugh and dance, and cry of happiness adds to it. 

Karo nudges his arm and Jacob follows again. In the dancing crowd, spinning in pairs to music as quick as a heartbeat and twice as light, is an achingly familiar face. Nothing is rigid in the midst of the party. No formation holds them all together, but still Donnick manages to hoist a young woman into the air and down again in time with all the rest.

Jacob's brows furrow upwards with a pang and warmth on his cheeks. He knows this dance. He knows what Donnick's laugh sounds like, even if he can only see the flash of the elf's smile across the crowd. 

Sharp pain cracks across Jacob's cheek and he nearly tips sideways on the bench. Spluttering, he looks around for what just struck him. 

Karo is already skipping away into the crowd, laughing. "That's a good opportunity just slapped you in the face, so you'd better know it! On your feet, your Grace!" 

Dazed, Jacob lets the chuckle bubble up and out of his chest. How different things are here, he allows himself to think. Isenholm isn't on the other side of the country but it could be another world. No one here would even blink an eye if he were to step in time, place his hands at Donnick's side and lift him high into the air. The thought was headier than spiced wine ever could be.

He stays sitting just long enough for another cup to sail high over the crowd. Jacob ducks this time and in the same motion gets to his feet, carefully- and quickly before another can claim his place- wading into the fray.

Abdirak x Donnick (aka Soup)

Inspired by stuff in my Sufferer, I Shall follow up.

(if you wanna read about these two forbidden lovers, my fics are here!)

Brother Donnick serves it hot

Every day and night

Just go up the temple, dear,

And tell him of your plight

Bend your knees in humbleness

Tell him of all your hungers

He'll fill you up and send you home

Praising all his wonders

Should food or drink not slake your needs

(Your flesh aches with desire)

Then take your knees with kind Donnick

And let him take you higher

My Day 2 Picks

Reading Choice

I cannot recommend this highly enough. An unusual coupling - they worship gods that are sworn enemies - that plays out beautifully~

Writer's Self-Promo Pick

And the self promo for the new pairing tag is going to this recent piece of Volo x Barcus which was just far too much fun to write~

KudosCember Day 2 - Two Together

BG3's Most Wanted Non-Dateable NPC - Day 7 Results!

First week of the poll is over! From now on I probably won't be doing daily updates, but I appreciate the patience from anyone who wants to continue to follow along! This thing has 670 form responses and over 950 individual votes, which is about 950 more votes than I expected it to get!

In an exciting turn of events, Gortash has finally been overtaken for second place by Rolan! Raphael still reigns in first though, which I'm sure he'd love.

Shoutout to the Brother Donnick fandom also. I see you guys in my notes every time I post an update.

I know nothing about cooking; is there enough in these recipes for someone to successfully attempt "SOUPS OF THE REALMS BY BROTHER DONNICK"? And if so, has anyone tried? :P
