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

(Anonymous) 2013-02-16 12:18 am (UTC)(link)Elisif made it clear that she loathed him personally but a diplomatic marriage would not be off the cards. Ulfric responded with similar sentiments to keep her hoping and politically pliant, but he had no intention of following through. A Dragonborn consort he could trust would be far more useful than a queen he couldn’t, especially in times of war.
Thalmor missives were replied to with a polite ‘wait and see’ but Ulfric wasted no time getting in contact with the independant Hammerfell, a natural ally as he saw it, and even the Empire. Skyrim had to prove she was a country worthy of the title, and not just a few Nords throwing a fit about some obscure religious matter.
The war was over; trade could resume, and indeed, increase. They would need wealth and a lot of it to fund the coming war. But he couldn’t stir the country too fast; she needed to rest first, to heal. So while the ordinary folk saw little change, Ulfric worked his fingers to the bone and talked until he was hoarse. Every night he slept the deep sleep of the truly exhausted, and every morning he wondered where Dyce was.
A few weeks later he received a message by courier:
She’s not in Markarth.
-Dyce
Ulfric decided that on the whole that was good news. He had beseeched Talos a countless number of times over the years to protect her, and he prayed again that Dyce might find her safe.
~~~
The Argonians worked hard. They tended to sluice down the tiles with water when a simple sweeping out probably would have sufficed, but Ulfric was starting to get used to the strange way they looked and moved even if he didn’t find them aesthetically pleasing. And they gave him no cause to complain.
He’d changed the rules so that Argonians could be allowed inside the city walls for the purposes of gainful employment, and he gave it another two weeks before the local shop owners got sick of watching them walk out every evening with their wages in their pockets and petitioned him to let them stay in the city long enough to spend some money.
It was one of Windhelm’s rare clear days, where the fallen snow reflected the sun so brightly it made your eyes water. Ulfric and Jorlief were going through the latest letters from the Jarls when the doors to the great hall were flung open.
Ulfric’s heart leaped when Dyce strolled in, as if he’d only been gone a few hours rather than weeks. Ulfric waved Jorlief away, his eyes never leaving Dyce’s face. He looked windburnt and happy; his cloak and boots dusty.
“Well?” Ulfric asked.
Dyce perched on an armrest of Ulfric’s throne, and leaned in to talk into his ear.
“She has her mother’s eyes,” he said, and smiled. “And her father’s ambition. If I hadn’t shown up, she would have owned half the trade routes in Skyrim in ten years. And have Maven looking over her shoulder in fifteen. I foresee a lot of arguments about Khajiit, and if you try and involve me I’m going to take her side.”
“So, what does that mean?”
“I told her you’d need a few minutes to get ready.”
“She’s here?”
“Wild horses couldn’t have kept her away.”
Ulfric’s heart was pounding. He stood up, and took a shaky breath. “They must have given her a new name. What’s my daughter’s name?”
“Ysolda,” Dyce said.
“Ysolda, Ysolda.” He tested it.
“I want a reward,” Dyce said abruptly.
“What? Yes, whatever you like, within reason.”
Ulfric was startled out of his confusion by Dyce taking his hand. He looked into eyes that were so happy for him. “I want to introduce you,” he said.
“Oh. Thank you.”
Dyce led him towards the sunlight. The snow was so dazzling, it made his eyes water.

(Anonymous) 2013-02-16 01:22 am (UTC)(link)Bravo! Bravo! Author! Author!!!
YAY! (I had considered Ysolda, especially when I realized the daughter was a full Nord)
This was SO GOOD! I know, I know, I've told you that before, but WOW!
How can you tell Ulfric really feels for someone? When he's willing to change for them. Even just going back to bed to lounge with Dyce was a statement, a very sweet one.
I loved how you kept them both so in character. Ulfric suggesting marriage (because that's what he would do) and yet being aware and knowledgable that he probably wouldn't get it, and not pushing. And Dyce saying "No", but not bolting for the door, like he might have earlier in their relationship.
I loved Ulfric's political intelligance that he got the businessmen of Windhelm to ask for Argonians to live in the city. That's what he would do, because he's that guy.
And I loved that you got Ulfric the same way I do. He's a remarkable man, but he's not a bad man- he's just wrong sometimes. (Okay, he's a bastard and he's wrong a lot of the time)
And that sex scene, Unggghhffff! I suspect my husband is going to have to send a note of thanks. When he can walk again.
Thank you so much for this. You ended it on such a happy note. I always knew you had some fluff in you. I'm glad it's done and you can rest. Be So Proud! This is fabulous!
