There's also a tag for Forbidden_Affection that might fit here.
You know, I never thought I'd see Dyce being shown the door by someone else. That seems like such an odd twist of fate, especially considering who's doing it. But Erandur is wise and knows that Dyce would lose his mind in about 10 minutes if he had to park himself in the temple.
Now, (and I'm struggling with how to phrase this) there are some sterotypes in relationships between and older man and a much younger partner, (male or female) and well, they're not pretty. On either end. The older man is looking to dominate something beauitful-the younger person is doing it for approval or for material gains, and affection, respect and love either get dumped early on or are never part of the mix.
But Erandur is very, very careful to make sure this doesn't go there. Not that Dyce needs either approval or money, but its noticable how careful they both are to be doing this from a loving place. Another thing I don't normally connect with Dyce.
Which is the whole point of the story. How does Dyce's heart work? Does he actually love someone other than himself? It's fitting that a priest of Mara is who helps him explore that. The end result is something a little strange, a little sad, and very sweet.
I have to wonder how this is going to effect Dyce has he continues his adventures, because I don't believe he's leaving Dawnstar unchanged. This was really lovely in so many ways, Dyce!anon. It's a real love story, starting Dyce. Who would have expected it?
Now, if I can stop being quite so maudlin and sentimental for a moment- My request list is growing. We have to do something about that. Curretly, I'm personally asking for the following. 1: MOST IMPORTANT! I want to see how Dyce is changed by this expereince. (If he is at all) Doesn't matter who, what or where, I'm just curious as to the after effect. 2: Brynjolf! There's still some healing that needs to happen down in Riften. PLUS, I ask you- Is it fair that Vex, Rune, Cynric, and even Mercer has had some of Dyce, but his beautiful second hasn't??? There is a gorgeous man with a gorgeous voice- Let's Fuck HIm! 3: Farkas!!! Really, either of the twins and I'd be doing a congaline around my computer. I like big Nords and I can not lie. Dyce said he loves Farkas, I need to read it! 4: You might have noticed, I have a bit of a voice kink. (No??? Really???) And since I'm never going to get a Dyce/Fenris cross-over, (Hang on, my head just exploded) the most sexy voices in Skyrim are the Dragons. Please, please pleaseplease!!!! Dyce!anon. I need a meeting between Dyce and one of the big guys. I'm not fussy. Hell, I'd take Sahloknir at this point. No sex is needed, just a conversation would make me very, very happy.
So, there you go. What have we learned? That Dyce is an awesome loving man. That Erandur is a very wise and sexy mer. That long-review-writing!anon is a demanding bitch and likes voices.
Good. Good. I feel we're all in a better place. You continue to rock my world, Dyce!Anon, and I'm going to hit my character limit. So love you and thank you!
