December 3, 2022 | Skorpa finds Nathaniel wearing his jacket

 "Is that mine?" Skorpa asked out loud from where he'd found Nathaniel out on the balcony of the large palace that overlooked the Ghost sea. Moving to step out into the freezing cold air he was eyeing the long cloak made up out of a polar bears belt Nathaniel was wearing. "Definitely mine... " He clarified a bit teasingly once he was near enough to pull the hood with the bears face still on it up over Nathaniel’s head jerking it down over the other males eyes before moving to lean against the railing not far away, hand brushing through some of the snow that was there before he glanced out at the ocean briefly. Another snowstorm was definitely brewing up there and would probably fall throughout the night.

 

"Hey!" Nathaniel laughed as the hood was pulled down over his eyes. He brushed it back over his head and walked closer to Skorpa. "Yeah, sorry. It was cozy and I couldn't help myself, so I... helped myself." Nate preferred warmer climates, but it was worth the bitter cold to be here with Skorpa, and besides, he had all these nice warm furs. Made it hard to complain.

 

"Well, you probably need it more than I do anyway... And I've plenty more" Skorpa pointed out with a bit of a chuckle. He himself was honestly so used to it, plus well... He was dead so? Now that wasn't to say he didn't get cold however but the less he ate the less he certainly felt of it. Right now he was certainly somewhere in between. What to Nathaniel probably felt like the actual below zero temperature it was to Skorpa felt like a nice forties perhaps? He only had his long sleeve on even despite the snow.

"Certainly makes you blend in more around here" He added a bit teasing eyes briefly glancing Nathaniel over. He faintly recalled when they met and Christ. Even the students up at the college would have swallowed him alive. Now though? Well if he told someone he was a Nord they'd probably believe him!

 

Nate enjoyed these moments when Skorpa was genuinely being kind. In the back of his mind, he pretty much assumed that if he did happen to freeze to death, Skorpa would just find another set of holes. That was fine with him, but he also greatly enjoyed *not* freezing to death. The furs did take quite a lot of the bite out of the chill, but damn, it would still take a lot of time for Nate to get used to this climate.

Nate nodded; it was good that he was blending in, he thought with a faint smile. He'd been growing out his hair as well, and with his fair complexion, he thought he passed quite well. The furs definitely helped.

"Thanks," he said.

January 7, 2023 | [ROOMMATES] – Désmoda x Harald [WIP]

  Désmoda had been living a comfortable life—well, comfortable for her. She had a rather nice roof over her head and she could  get to the market if she wanted  to ride in the carriage. But she also had a few people she could ask to do so for her… for a sufficiently-inclusive definition of “ask”. Yes, she’d released the last poor bastard she’d indentured from her cellar, but not without taking some insurance that, should she request a favor or two, they’d not feel in a position to turn her down. And now that her cellar was housing only empty wine casks at the moment, she found herself in need of someone to share her home. She’d never admit it, of course, but she did get terribly lonely from time to time. Maybe there was a more appropriate way to meet men than entrapping, torturing, and blackmailing them… but how would she know? Her mother had wanted to raise a lady and she’d wanted to spite her mother, so away she’d run when she was 16, taking some of her dowry with her b...

September 17, 2022 | Nate x Royce – First Meeting

 Nate to Royce: "Didn't know anyone else was in here."   Shit! That fucking door! He really needed to change the damn locks sometime soon because this was getting annoying. Luckily though he'd merely been checking his new hardware, that had gotten infected now twice. Dropping his shirt and tossing the bloodied gauze into the trash he shot a glare towards Nathaniel. "Yeah well.... Someone was in here. Move." He half growled to the other male who was currently in the doorway of the bathroom..   "That looks nasty. Do you need any help?" Nate asked. He wasn't exactly accustomed to helping other people, but it was considered polite to ask, regardless of how rude this guy was being.   "You a fuckin ripperdoc now to? Or a doctor even?" Royce snarked rather immediately as he glanced over his shoulder long enough to glance at Nathaniel then moved to kick a rolling stool that sat at the back of the massive garage over closed to a rather tall lo...

April 23, 2022 | Serena's diary

   I love that Sigefrid loves cuddling ♥ He's not the type to admit to it, but whenever we sit together, it's like we  have  to be touching. He's also not bothered by me doing my language lessons in his presence. In fact, he loves learning about other cultures as much as I do. So cuddling in bed with him and using Duolingo together is a pretty perfect start to our day... after the sex, of course ♥ Sometimes he automatically translates my lessons out loud, from memory, so we're brushing up on languages together. That will help with expanding our international syndicate.
