Yuletide Recs

Just under the wire before reveals!

Ordinary Time (13th Century Plantagenet RPF, Edward II of England/Piers Gaveston)

There were many meaningless and polite things Piers could say. It wouldn’t be hard at all. They clattered about his head. Speaking any of them aloud would be an act of self-preservation. There was danger in desiring the good opinion of the king’s heir. But here Edward was, offering kindness as generously as he gifted money to people. And it truly was so, so hard to resist.

The Devil Went Down to Georgia Station (The Devil Went Down to Georgia, Gen)

Me, I was just about ready to play the fool myself when the Devil arrived. You see, the sector sheriff had died a little while back, and the spaceways were so infested with bandits that no law-abiding ship dared to fly. The bandits didn't come stop at Georgia Station for a drink and a fiddler either—nobody comes down here unless they've got a resupply contract, for there's only one safe route in. I was feeling my old wanderlust, what with being cooped up in one place for so long, and besides my free meals were getting smaller by the day. That's why, when the Devil came sauntering into the station's only saloon and slid into the booth across from me, bringing out her fiddle from Devil-knows-where, I listened when she made me a deal.

Legends & Lore (D&D: Honor Among Thieves, Edgin Darvis/Xenk Yendar)

Xenk gets truth potioned and doesn't say anything interesting at all.

Not Certainty, But Hope (D&D: Honor Among Thieves, Edgin Darvis/Xenk Yendar)

In which Xenk proposes.

"I'm sorry, but I'm going to need you to repeat that," Edgin said.

"I have come here to ask your hand in marriage," Xenk said in that annoyingly calm voice, like dropping in on someone at their local pub and asking them to marry you was just like popping next door and asking for a cup of sugar from the neighbor, "that we might infiltrate a temple of Ilmater and discover the means by which so many happy couples have disappeared."

I love you—all I can (England Series - K.J. Charles, Bill Merton/Jimmy Yoxall)

Bill and Jimmy, and almost thirty years.

The Lost of Winter (The Goblin Emperor Series - Katherine Addison, Thara Celehar/Iana Pel-Thenhior)

Thara Celehar has lost his ability to speak to the dead. Awaiting instructions from the Archprelate, he is left feeling adrift and inadequate as an instructor to his student, Velhiro Tomasaran. When Iäna Pel-Thenhior comes to him with a problem that is not within his remit, he still jumps at a task he feels capable of. But when that task leads back to the story of a missing girl and a body found with her ring, it's clear he still has responsibilities to the dead of Amalo, even if he can no longer hear them.

can i request new xenk/ilmater art please 🥺

Hi,

Unfortunately i can't accept requests right now; i had two surgeries at the beginning of the week, and it's going to take time before i can sit down and draw again.

I might open art requests once i'm back up though :)

in the meantime here's my latest xenk wip under the break. Ilmater's hands aren't here yet but they will be!

[sankt-jesper]

now im intrigued, 001: xenk/ilmater?

From this ask meme

I love you :3c

when I started shipping it if I did:

Officially it took a lot of wips and reflection, but looking back I'd say probably as soon as I wondered which deity Xenk could devote himself to if he had one...so the day after I watched the movie!

my thoughts:

Deity/Paladin is one of my favorite tropes and I often see it as a different flavor of leader/right hand...Xenk fits perfectly the trope, and Ilmater was the first pick in my mind. It fits! It just fits!

(Also. I love the fact that Xenk is perfect. I also love the idea that how he expresses his devotion would get many raised eyebrows if people knew.)

What makes me happy about them:

Of course Ilmater would love Xenk. He's the perfect believer; he's the hand Ilmater needs; he's impossible not to love. I love that special connection and complete understanding! I love the idea that Xenk loves Ilmater unconditionally and Ilmater loves him back unconditionally as well.

What makes me sad about them:

It's a quiet, often intangible love story; Xenk is matter and tethered to his own plane, and Ilmater can never fully belong or be physically present.

things done in fanfic that annoys me:

What fanfic 🥲

things I look for in fanfic:

Their existence!!!!! I look for fic to exist!!!!!! I'm begging on my hands and knees!!! I am stuck finishing a star wars wip that should have been done months ago and cannot write anything else: help me. PLEATHE help me 😭

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:

For Xenk mainly Kaz Brekker or Edgin but I'm open to suggestions; for Ilmater I'd love a very not-so-perfect paladin! Maybe someone whose faith and actions waver and leave a less than stellar track record: someone who thinks Ilmater shouldn't love them wholly and unconditionally, or who believe they don't deserve his love.

My happily ever after for them:

Xenk lived a long, fulfilling life on his plane, and he knows the next step won't be one he takes alone

who is the big spoon/little spoon:

Does watching over your paladin and his dreams, and make certain his sleep will always be restful as long as you can watch over him count as being the big spoon?

what is their favorite non-sexual activity:

Long conversations, with whispered words and lingering intangible touches
