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

“Sir- I mean, Da,” Argis said, allowing himself a smile. Assuming Liriel got back unharmed, there was hope for her and Madanach yet. He turned to leave, and Cicero got up to follow him out. Cicero hadn't actually been dismissed but message delivered, he'd got no intention of hanging around for Madanach to lash out at.

“Keeper, wait.” Cicero stopped. Too late, it seemed. Slowly he turned to face the King in Rags.

“Sir?” he asked, licking his lips nervously. “Did you need anything else?”

“Where are you going next?” Madanach asked. “You know the Brotherhood will kill you if they find you, you're going to be on the run for the rest of your life. Liriel isn't here, and you can't go with Argis.”

“Cicero hadn't really thought about it,” said Cicero, scratching his head. “High Rock maybe. Or Hammerfell. Maybe back to Cyrodiil when things are safer there. Why does Madanach ask?”

“Stay here,” said Madanach quietly. “You're a good warrior, and we're a match for the Brotherhood. Of course you went after Liriel. She's your Listener and you're a Dark Brother, you had no choice, I know. But she's not here, and you might as well stay somewhere you'll get news of her return. When she returns, she'll go straight to Whiterun to check on her children. Argis will find her and he'll send word. Well? Want to join the Forsworn again?”

Cicero had given no thought whatsoever to what he'd do after delivering the message, but now the offer was made, there was not a doubt in his mind.

“Cicero would love to!” he squealed. “King Madanach is very kind to offer.”

“Don't make me regret it,” Madanach growled, retreating to the upper level. As he left, Kaie made her way down, glaring at Cicero, arms folded.

“Don't think you can come crawling back into my bed like you never left it,” she snapped at him. Cicero hung his head. She'd looked really upset when he'd left. He'd grabbed his things, kissed her, told her he was sorry and just ran. She'd been too stunned to react. Now came the reckoning.

“No, Kaie,” he said quietly. “Cicero doesn't presume. It is up to you.”

Kaie's glare softened as he spoke, and when she replied, it was in tones far warmer than he'd expected.

“Come on. Let's get you a tent set up, if you're staying. Can't have the Night Mother's Keeper sleeping on the cold ground, can we?”

Cicero finally met her eyes and saw a smile there, his heart skipping at the sight. It seemed he was forgiven, at least a little. He wasn't sure if he was in love with Kaie or not, but he was fond of her. It was nice to be back among friends.

He just hoped Liriel would be forgiven as easily.

A/N: Mabion = Reach dialect for 'my son', based on a mix of Welsh and Sindarin Elvish (given the Aldmeri influences on the Reach natives, bringing in Elvish elements to their dialect would make sense).

The plot is definitely thickening from here on in. Next chapter involves Astrid finally deciding to make her move and things coming to a head as Liriel returns to find killing Alduin was just the start.

Ouch. I knew the fallout was coming after the last chapter - as soon as I realized what was inevitably going to happen at Season Unending, my stomach dropped - but that didn't make it any less painful. I have a feeling Madanach is going to regret sending Liriel off TO FIGHT A WORLD-EATING DRAGON IN THE AFTERLIFE that way, and sooner rather than later.

I'm glad things have worked out for Argis, though. He's a sweetheart. And your Cicero is hilarious as usual.

Oh he's definitely regretting it, hence the sending Argis off to Whiterun and telling Cicero he can stay.

I do love writing Argis - I killed him off in another fic and really regret it, this is my way of making it up to him.

In spite of the heartbreak, there's something beautifully surreal and funny about Cicero giving the obligatory best friend he-wasn't-good-enough-for-you-anyway talk, especially when the couple in question is Madanach and the Dragonborn and his version of "now let's watch movies and eat ice cream" is "now let's go stab something."

I love this story. :)

Cicero's either the best person to have around after a break-up or the absolute worst, I can't decide. His heart's in the right place though.
