A YEAR IN THE LONG FORGOTTEN REALM roderick's favorite interaction: [ no amount of fame ]

"For Eilionora Stafford to accept you, she needs to feel that she has won. She will agree to marry you if you promise that some of their traditions might be reinstated after your marriage.” He knew that his father would never truly grant this. He despised their culture and religion too much. It was blasphemy in his eyes to leave offerings to anyone else besides his one true god.

But perhaps he might make a promise he never intended to keep. Aside from physically harming her people or her sister, Edmund did not see Eilionora ever relenting to anything less if things stayed as they were. But he also knew that his father would grow impatient with her and that he would rather force her hand than having it willingly given. 

“And what an Emperor gives,” Edmund reminded him, “he can take away.”

3. favorite line/scene i wrote this year? 

“At least you’ll have today to remember too, today when you questioned your anger even though the Oculus was right. You don’t know any better, and I can’t deny the truth of that, but there’s something about naiveté that’s powerful. Untouched. Maybe, just maybe, it’s a part of yourself both of us can learn from.”

idk - there’s just something about the power of naiveté that i love about writing wordless dav and just about my life in general? i love sneaking in life lessons theres something gratifying about it

21. most memorable comment/review?

shit….. every single comment i get is fantastic? how could you make me choose

tbh the comment ive appreciated most in the moment was one i got on muscle memory that went in really good detail??? they talked a bunch about how i created an autonomous dav and how they liked that aspect of him - that the ability to be able to do things and be bored and discover and laugh is important, and theyre right tbh!BUT. every comment that goes “eden im crying” renews my heart with life

23. fics i wanted to write but didn’t?

ive been wanting to write a scene with angus and dav for the longest time….like. the scene where they go to look for lucretia in her office in s&s, and angus is still recovering from the shock that dav would be willing to let his world die and dav is still recovering from the shock that he’s been wordless for 10 years and yet they still have to work together. that shits intense?

aLSO! ive been wanting to write a taako and lucretia post s&s confrontation fic bc that shit’s like. a rite of passage,but can i write taako? nah

also i have a wip in the works thats like? luster au where lucretia meets roswyth before she makes the bureau and our shitty friend patrice gets enthralled by the bulwark staff and kidnaps wordless dav for leverage but i dont think ill ever finish it sadly? maybe someday
