skyrimkinkmemeANNOUNCEMENTS: 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
Sleepless - Part 6/?
Date: 2013-05-08 01:44 pm (UTC)“O-oh…” There was a slight pause. “I’m sorry, we hadn’t been introduced and I just thought-”
“It’s okay.” He looked over at her; her cheeks were flushed with embarrassment and she looked like she wanted to melt into the floor. He extended his hand out towards her and said “I’m Vilkas, nice to meet you.”
“I’m Ariella.” She replied with a quiet voice and placed her hand in his. Her handshake was firmer than he expected though.
“I’m sorry.” She said again.
“There’s no need to apologise.” Vilkas replied. Her cheeks were still slightly red and her heartbeat was erratic; both of which seemed to rouse the wolf in him.
She couldn’t meet his eyes or his face and kept her attention trained on the book in front of her even though she had closed it.
“If you have any questions feel free to ask me, I know our history better than most.” There was a beat of silence.
“Uh, thanks…” Her voice trailed off and he kept her gaze fixed on the book in front of her. After a few moments of silence Vilkas stood, despite his wish to stay and talk to her. He turned around and was about to head downstairs again.
“Wait.” Her voice was quiet but he stopped and turned his head slightly. “Um, can I ask about what the circle is?”
It was as if she thought she was asking a question forbidden, her voice unsure and her heart rate slightly quickened. A small smiled played on his lips.
“Give me a minute.” With that Vilkas walked down the steps but once the doors closed behind him he ran to his room.
He rather frantically found a tunic to put on and looked quickly through the books piled around his room. He wished he had ordered them in some way. He soon found the books he was looking for and ran back to the mead hall, slowing to a much more casual pace once he was walking up the steps.
It wasn’t often the brooding wolf was excited to speak to someone, but at that moment he was.
---
Ariella felt tired but didn’t want to pull away from her conversation with Vilkas. She thought if she left it she’d find out it was a dream.
He was just so passionate about Jorrvaskr’s history and for that she was enamoured with him. She had her head rasting on her arm on the table and she looked up at him as he spoke.
He was telling her of a battle; one that was often forgotten. He was so descriptive, energetic and eloquent she felt like he was reading a book out to her.
She desperately wanted to keep her eyes open and listen to him. Yet they had been up for hours and hours now and even her sleepless mind had its limits.
Vilkas had mapped out the line of Harbingers for her on a piece of paper and she had made notes around it herself. Notes similar to that were spread all over the table; as were books.
It didn’t help that Vilkas’ voice was fairly soothing, which Ariella found strange. She usually preferred silence yet she almost found herself wishing he would never stop talking.
“-and though the battle looked lost, and for the most part certainly was but that is-” Her eyes were drooping but opened at his abrupt stop, “A tale for another time. You look tired.”
“Maybe a little.” She admitted trying to shake herself awake a bit.
“Well then bed for now, there will be plenty of tales for another time. Besides, your probably sick of my voice.” Vilkas said with a chuckle. Ariella simply reddened in the cheeks and stood with Vilkas as they made their way downstairs.
“Well goodnight, if you could call it that I suppose.” She said, to which Vilkas nodded.
“Goodnight.” With that he watched her retreat into the Whelps room before going to his own room.
