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

A valid point, it had to be said, and the necromancer activity had turned out to be quite genuine in the end, but nevertheless there was a point to be made here. Especially since Tullius had started getting reports of wilder tales of the gods sweeping Elisif up into the heavens afterwards and anointing her with a Divine mission to sweep out corruption and gifting her with a golden sword of fire to do it with. Said sword was at Elisif's side right now, actually glowing, and the young Jarl looked apologetic but not actually remorseful.

“Yes, yes, Elisif, I agree you need to maintain order in your Hold, I accept that,” Tullius sighed. “And yes, in this case, I agree you needed troops to help you, this Malkoran sounded like a dangerous man. But Lady Elisif, you can't just start commandeering troops when you feel like it. There's forms to complete, a process to follow...”

“And in the mean time, my people die?” Elisif snapped. “Look General, I'm very sorry for the short notice, but I needed those troops and...”

“They're Legion soldiers!” Tullius snapped back. “You are not part of the Legion!”

“No, I'm the bloody Jarl!” Elisif shouted, getting up. “And I'm going to be High Queen and you'd do well to remember that, General!”

“When Ulfric and his rebellion have been put down, yes!” Tullius hit back. “Not before! And whose troops are you relying on to do that for you, Elisif? Are you capable of raising your own army to fight Ulfric?”

Elisif said nothing, glaring at him, mouth set in a thin line as she folded her arms. When she finally did speak, her voice was cold and authoritative in a way he really wasn't used to hearing from her.

“The way I hear it, General, ever since I found out I was Dragonborn, half your army is composed of recruits who joined because they're ready to give their lives for a Dragonborn Queen who's clearly been picked by the gods themselves in their eyes. Maybe the Legion swears its loyalty to the Emperor, but there's an awful lot of Nords in that Legion who'd follow me to Oblivion and back. Don't you ever forget that, General.”

How could he? These days it seemed every other recruit was a wide-eyed Nord there to avenge the true High Queen, the Chosen of Akatosh. On the one hand, the extra recruits were good to have, as was the public relations victory – winning the hearts and minds of Skyrim's people would be key to this war and having their High Queen turn out to be this Dragonborn was proving useful. On the other hand, ever since she'd got back from her trip to these Greybeards she'd been... different. Less biddable. Unpredictable. Out of control. Liable to upset all Tullius' carefully laid plans. This could have the potential to make life very very difficult for them all.

“No, Elisif, I quite understand, many Nords want you as Queen, and I do appreciate that, I really do,” Tullius sighed. “But if Ulfric had attacked and half our troops had been off with you down some cave or other, the city could have been in trouble, couldn't it?”

Elisif did look away then, conceding that point at least. “Yes, General,” she sighed. “I suppose you're right.”

“Good,” said Tullius, not entirely convinced there weren't going to be any other incidents but he supposed this was the best he was going to get. “Don't get me wrong, Jarl, I absolutely agree that you need to keep order in your Hold, and I don't even think what you did was so wrong in itself. Only we have a war to fight and I need those soldiers. So next time you need to go on some crusade, you talk to me first and I'll see what we've got available. Is that agreeable to you, Jarl Elisif?”

“Yes, General,” Elisif said softly, lowering her eyes. Tullius nodded, deciding this conversation was finished and took his leave.

Elisif watched him go, calm enough on the outside, but inside she was seething. Stupid little man with his petty little problems... she was a damn Dragonborn! She could take Ulfric, she was sure of it, one strike with Dawnbreaker and a swipe with her axe and the entire war would be over. Of course, that would first mean getting into Windhelm and past all his soldiers, and then there'd be the little matter of getting out alive afterwards. She wouldn't be able to manage that without an army behind her and who else's did she have? Just the Legion.

Of course, if she did kill Ulfric and then get killed by his men in revenge, at least she'd get to go to Sovngarde and be with Torygg again. That wouldn't be a bad thing either, in fact there was a part of her hoping it could be so.

But not just yet. For now her people needed her. More to the point, she'd had a letter from the Thalmor Embassy, an invitation to Elenwen's next party. Elisif steeled herself for it. This party was not going to be an easy one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

A/N: A short one, but it does set up future events, plus it also gets her Dawnbreaker. Every self-respecting Dragonborn needs a Dawnbreaker. :)

Next chapter is Diplomatic Immunity, and I think you will enjoy it greatly.

What Dragonqueen Elisif needs is her own personal pool of troops to draw from without impacting the security of her hold or the assets of the Legions. Because really, as tactless and totally in character Tullius was, he had a very viable point. He's a General. He needs to be kept aware of what assets he has on hand, and has to maintain a certain level of tactical readiness at all times.

Luckily, shortly after the Embassy, the creation of such a personal pool of troops is doable, once Elisif walks into Sky Haven Temple. I hope to see her in Blades armor and Dragonbane on her hip (easily my favorites, but thats just me.)

But mainly, I really, REALLY want to see Delphine amd Esbern completely screw up by trying to give Elisif orders. As I imagine she'll have the response most of us wish we could give them when they try to pull rank. /Delphine/ restart the Dragonguard? Dragonborn says no. Bitch.

Oh god. One step after Diplomatic Immunity is fun through Riften. Skyrim's wrenched hive of scum and villany. Maven trying to pull something. Corridor fighting the Thalmor in the Ratway. So Cathartic for any Imperial. The fun with lady titan Mjoll.

The Theives Guild. Elisif is certainly smart enough to see the possibilities of taking that over as Guildmaster Queen. Her own Spy Agency? Yes please. The Nightingale ritual really has no hold over the Dragonborn, as no matter how much Noctural may bitch about it, Talos and Akatosh get first dibs on a DB's soul.

Also. Riften means Elisif encounters Brynjolf, Skyrim's most suave bastard. You know he's going to hit on Elisif. Often and hard. Even if she doesn't join the guild. Maybe even MORE if she doesn't, since she may just be playing hard to get, the little minx. Whether or not he pulls it off, I dunno. But if there's anyone in Skyrim that can get in a Jarl's pants, it's Bryn. He wouldn't even mind if it's a rebound lay. And probably say so. To her face. :P

I have to disagree with some of that.

I think Elisif is a bit too righteous to fall into the Thieves guild, and that's not counting the Nocturnal Daedra worship which Elisif wouldn't touch considering her past experiences with the Vaermina cult.

And as much as I love Bryn I hope he doesn't make a play for her! He may be the most charming bastard in Skyrim, but he still isn't an honourable guy and Elisif deserves better (Vilkas or Erandur perhaps?)

Besides which, she just thought of dying and meeting her husband in Sovngarde as a *good* thing...she is in no way ready for a new relationship!

Above commenter has it right - Elisif isn't going to join the Thieves Guild. She is a Jarl after all, and her reaction to the Guild even being a thing is likely to be 'but that's illegal! You can't just take people's stuff!' Definitely not signing up with Nocturnal either. Meridia and Azura, perhaps, but not signing away her soul as a Nightingale. She wants to go to Sovngarde, don't forget!

So yes, apologies for disappointing anyone but there'll be no Thieves Guild questline here - just the main quest, Civil War and a few side quests bolted on. But that's likely to be 25 - 30 chapters on its own, you know!

Brynjolf - I actually have someone else lined up for him as an LI, so he won't be hooking up with Elisif. He might well flirt with her a bit, but he's got his limits and well, she's a grieving widow likely to burst into tears if anyone touches her, he's not going to go for that. I did actually briefly consider the two of them together, but couldn't see it working out and I don't want to break Elisif's heart. Poor girl's suffered enough!

“Yes, yes, Elisif, I agree you need to maintain order in your Hold, I accept that,” Tullius sighed. “And yes, in this case, I agree you needed troops to help you, this Malkoran sounded like a dangerous man. But Lady Elisif, you can't just start commandeering troops when you feel like it. There's forms to complete, a process to follow...”

I can hear this in Tullius' voice, and it's HILARIOUSLY in-character, especially that last sentence. Diplomatic Immunity is possibly my favorite quest in the game, so I can't wait for the next chapter!

Yey Dawnbreaker! Easily the best sword in the game.

Now for the Diplomatic Immunity quest - and we finally find out who Delphine has found to steal stuff from the Thalmor?!?...and I've just realised that question has an obvious answer, it's a member of the Thiefs guild isn't it.

Brynjolf perhaps, or maybe Karliah? And that will setup a follower to accompany Elisif if she has to go to Riften to find Esbern - after all she'll need all the help she can get, that's Stormcloak territory!

Once Elisif find out that she's going to have to run interference with the Theives Guild to get what she needs to save the world, all she needs to do it talk to Mjoll. How many of us wished we could just fist-to-face the Theives Guild like we can the Brotherhood?

Talk to Mjoll, Elisif. You'll have an awesome, entire-warcamp-wrecking friend for life.
