“Malfoy looked down his nose at Harry; he closed his arms ala Snape, utterly bat-like. His drawl was a near perfect imitation: “I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death—but first, my rendition of Hoggy Warty Hogwarts on the ukulele.” Harry couldn’t help it—he laughed, hard. “I don’t remember you being this funny.”
I just started Brief Encounter by maraudersaffair after seeing your wonderful rec list (a much needed rec, imo) a few days ago and oh. my. god, how it throttles my lungs! Please tell me I am going to survive this one because after Liar by jad and Bound Skerry by Frayach I had to recuperate (screaming). PS. I always save/send your recs to my sideblog that i go back to from time to time to find good stuff to read. They’re simply brilliant, thank you so much !!
K, babe, you have NO idea how happy your ask made me!!! 🥹 Send me your sideblog I’m always on the look for new blogs to follow!!!👏👏
And what comes to brief encounter… I absolutely love that fic. It’s so hot (so so so hot) and so wrong and some a+++ drarry and hinny dynamics. You’re going to have a good fucking time reading it I promise, although I have to admit that my idea of a good time might not be what other people think of a good time lol. I don’t want to spoil it, but my doors are always open for some emotional support 😌😌 that last sex scene will haunt me to my grave. Un-fucking-believable. I’m in tears just thinking about it.
Also Bound Skerry is one of those fics that I read and just sat silently for a while after, I love Frayach’s stories so much, they have some real fucking bangers especially in the infidelity department. But everything they’ve written just slap so hard 🥵
#im extremely hungover but this made me feel a whole lot better#might be time to re-read brief encounter#lots of love to you k❤️❤️❤️❤️

your Skyrim romance mod showcase and analysis keeping me company as I do my university project and got me wondering. if you were to rewrite/redesign the suitors what would be your take? and would Alec Theprinceofsong be a slam poet
ok this is really hard bc romance mod type things are NOT my thing but here goes:
actually its going under the cut bc this got SUPER long
casavir is a vigilant of stendarr heavily devoted to his duty and a little goofy about it, like a little too self-serious. you help him out with some missions and hes a little interested in you but very very awkward at flirting. it turns out he hasnt had a relationship in a long time and is repenting for a past where he was callous and self-centered and hurt some people, and feels undeserving of love. he has some religious sexual guilt but no actual vows of chastity or w/e, its more just “feels the need to atone and not be self-pleasing”. hes a little “knightly” and arrogant, but not patronizing to you. hes a real do-gooder type and will stand up against injustice wherever he sees it, getting him into trouble sometimes.
neeshka is a romance option in this. shes a thief who has fallen on hard times, and will approach you and bishop to trick and rob you. shes successful and you track her down, but you have the option to talk to her and she will explain herself to you, and wind up offering to help you out. shes a little flirty, but nothing over the top. it becomes evident that shes had to rely on only herself for most of her life and has a difficult time being vulnerable, but will eventually open up to you. she asks you to join her in visiting the site of her childhood home so she can have someone with her to talk about the memories there, which are painful and bittersweet and something she’s been running away from. you have an option to gently hold her hand in this moment.
alec prince of song is kind of an eccentric bard who is struggling to find success in skyrim due to his musical stylings being something that can be described only as slam poetry and interpretive dance. hes a hopeless romantic artist type who might be a little annoying. but in an absolutely bizarre turn of events, it seems that he has some loose grasp of the voice or possibly a form of TONAL ARCHITECTURE and can perform some tonal magic by his “singing”. basically hes incredibly pretentious but also really powerful without really being aware of it
darren is gay so hes only actually a romance option if youre playing as a man, but is extremely forward and no-filter towards everyone. kind of self-centered, but in a pretty friendly way? like he thinks hes amazing but is also super impressed with whatever you do. hes a mage in training and offers to help you on your quest, and it turns out hes not super great at most aspects of mage-ness (though he certainly thinks otherwise) and kind of just wanted someone to hang out with because hes a little lonely.
jack has like almost nothing to him in the game so im having a hard time with this one. i think he wouldnt be a real romance option but might be a fun one-off quest where you find him stranded IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WILDERNESS NOWHERE NEAR ANY WATER, hungover and having no idea where his ship is. you have to retrace his steps to help him get back and its sort of like the quest “a night to remember”. maybe just for fun it turns out hes not even human (which he forgot about due to being drunk) and is a dremora shiphand for the one and only velekh sain, but hes pretty friendly about it and you get to meet a whole ship full of dremora pirates.
cael also really does not have much of anything in the mod (not even a quest) and is also the least horrible character so idk what id do with him?like there isnt much to say here about the character himself bc theres the least amount of horrible shit.
bishop is rewritten from the ground up. hes an asshole and pretty mean, just not in the specifically misogynist abuser way. you only travel with him by hiring him as a mercenary. he starts to chill out and open up to you a little as you go, and eventually reveals the thing about how something claiming to be mara appeared to his mother, who sold his soul to it.
eventually he apologizes for being so nasty to you. hes still a bit of a jackass because thats who he is, but he makes the effort to be better because hes starting to care about you and enjoy your time together, and its making him want to be a better person. he sees himself in neeskha a little bit, being also someone whos been self reliant and chewed up and spat out by the world and turned hard and cold as a result, and meeting her is a point where he starts to come to Understandings about himself.
at no point are you made to feel obligated to be nice to him or to heal him, and when you say things that are confrontational to him he wont always “win” that conversation. he will be a little flirty at times, but just slightly, and your character will be the one to initiate relationship progress should you choose to do so.
the romance mod has a “main quest” of finding out what happened with his soul and etc (maybe to make it have relevancy, theres a background of events of this type happening a lot lately and people hallucinating the aedra and being asked to pledge to them), which you meet the other characters as a part of if you dont meet them on your own. bishop is not the only romance option you can end up with, and will end up as a friend regardless of that choice
#saint-nevermore#oh i forgot the redesign thing. with that just have them not all be white blonde people with smooth poreless faces and boyband hair#also also this is exclusively based on the mod and not the neverwinter nights 2 characters this mod plageurized from
