Meme Announcements!
ANNOUNCEMENTS: UPDATED 12/16/2017
Happy Holidays, fellow Kinkmemers! I have returned and have no reasonable excuse for my absence except LIFE. I will be working on updating the archives. If anyone sees anything amiss, please let me know.
I am also hoping to find another Mod and an Archivist.
The more dedicated people we have in this Meme the less chance of it dying. I admit that being the sole keeper of the Meme is not great for the fandom. If something were to happen to me, for good, this place would go the way of the Fallout Kink Meme. Let's not let that happen! If anyone would be interested in Modding/Archiving, please drop me a line. Thanks! <3
Call of the Blood 1.3/?
(Anonymous) 2013-06-10 12:39 pm (UTC)(link)“But I still hear the call of the blood.” That was from the younger voice, it sounded almost...confessional.
“We all do. It is our burden to bear. But we can overcome.” I was within eyesight of the men now; the one who was speaking was a dark-skinned, grey haired Nord with a weathered tattooed face. The second was a slightly smaller version of the giant upstairs.
Brothers, definitely. Maybe twins?
My suspicions were confirmed by his next words, “You have my brother and I, obviously. But I don’t know if the rest will go along quite so easily.”
They had definitely clocked my presence, their tone more guarded as I approached.
“Leave that to me.”
The younger Companion nodded, eying me warily as I walked through the door. The older man was staring at me as well, but with a strange expression in his eyes, a flicker of recognition, though I was sure that I had never met him before. The younger man was clearly waiting for the older to speak first but when he didn’t he turned to me, “What do you want, girl?”
“The woman upstairs said to speak to Kodlak,” I glanced uncertainly at the older man, still staring at me, before continuing, “I want to hire the Companions. All of you.”
“And why would you want to do that?” Kodlak addressed me for the first time.
“Ulfric Stormcloak is about to try to invade Whiterun. His lieutenant Galmar Stone-Fist is about a day’s march away with an army five times the size of Whiterun’s militia and even with the Legion we’ll need all the help we can get.“
The man was silent for a long moment, hand idly twisting a knife on the table. The younger Companion shot the older a glance that on anyone less imposing might have been construed as concerned. Then finally Kodlak spoke, “Well, how about we’ll help you, for free?”
“What?!”
I ignored the incredulous cry from the other, though it mirrored my thoughts, focusing on the Harbinger, “What’s the catch?”
“You join us afterwards.”
Both mine and the man’s jaws had dropped open, matching expressions of incredulity on our faces.
“Master, you’re not truly considering accepting her?”
“I am nobody’s master, Vilkas. And last I checked, we had some empty beds in Jorrvaskr for those with a fire burning in their hearts.”
“Apologies. But perhaps this isn’t the time to take on a new recruit.”
“We have been low in numbers since the Great War,” The man turned to me with calm milky blue eyes hinting at a serenity I wished I possessed, “Now, what do you say girl?”
“You don’t even know me.”
If you did there’d be no chance that you’d let me join your upstanding company.
The man chuckled, “Sometimes the famous come to us. Sometimes men and women come to us to seek their fame. It makes no difference. What matters is their heart.”
“And their arm,” The other man, Vilkas, interjected darkly. I shot him a cold glare but he wasn't fazed, staring at me as though I was something he’d scrape off his boots.
“Well, you’ll have a chance to assess that in the battle and afterwards in training.” He raised an eyebrow at her, “What’s your answer?”
I was silent for a long while. On the surface it seemed too good to be true...and that made the thief in Igne suspicious.
There really does have to be a catch. But on the plus side it saves me a huge chunk of gold, it’ll help with my woefully inadequate combat techniques and it fits in with my ‘fresh start.’ On the downside I’ll probably die. Or get kicked out when they discover my past. And then there’s Mr Grumpy-guts who clearly doesn’t want me to join. There’s only one answer really.
“I’m in.”

To the wonderful OP: Dinner is finally served ;)
Happy OP here!
(Anonymous) 2013-06-10 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)I especially like how your intro is very different from what you'd expect (the way she comes to join the companions). I'm already loving it and can't wait to read the rest!

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 02:10 pm (UTC)(link)I'm glad you like the changes- that was a bit of a worry for me so phew! I think some things work well as a game mechanic but don't necessarily work well as part of a narrative and can seem a little stand-alone and compartmentalised so there's a few things I've tried to merge later on in the story line.
Hopefully I'll get Chapter 2 finished by the end of the week...grumpy Vilkas is being a pain in the arse!

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)Haha that's what grumpy tends to do ;) I can just picture him nagging at you how he wants things differently lol
I'm looking forward to your next chapter!
