I got married and this npc showed up to my wedding. I have no idea who she is so I looked her up and I couldn’t find anything at all. I’m assuming that she’s from a mod, but I wouldn’t know which. Probably a Divine overhaul mod. But I don’t remember doing any sort of quests for her. It really was a wtf moment because as I was looking at all my close friends she was the last one I saw and it felt like someone was crashing my wedding.
I thought I’d round out this week with a few screenshots and actually show off my Dragonborn.
-Watching the Aurora Borealis with her husband:

-Taking her girls up to Jorrvaskr for training. I love these two, and being able to adopt them is awesome.

-I love the way he looks at her.
She’s also got the mother of all resting bitch faces.

She is wearing heavy steel armor and a very serious expression. She is looking at Farkas, who stands to her right and is looking at her lovingly. [END id]
-And we’ll end things off with a wedding picture. Lots of the Companions showed up for the wedding, which was nice.

I had a great time with this prompt week! Thanks for having me @tes-summer-fest !
why is it always "sorry lass, i've got important things to do" and never "I dedicate myself to you as both a thief and a husband. I agree to honor you in this life and the next."
Bethesda isn’t exactly known for its romances. Starfield was probably the most extensive romances they’ve written. But wanna know what they get right? Wedding ceremonies. Mass Effect and Baldur’s Gate, I wish you had let me actually have a ceremony to make my LI my wife.
I’ve been sorta just brainstorming ideas of Skyrim Lucien. Overall he’s like Shadowmere but I kinda wanted to add more to him in my Skyrim au and so I bring forth theses ramblings.
It starts off with him being dead and the guard of Bruma finding the nightmarish scene in Applewatch. During the investigation, Sithis got pissed that is Dark Brotherhood fav died like an idiot so the Dread Father did the same void stuff he probably did to create Shadowmere but with Lucien this time. Lucien starts, for lack of a better term, regenerating from his wounds and gained powers such as super strength and regeneration. However that resurrection wasn’t perfect since he’s blind from an eye, deaf to everything that isn’t Sithis or his own voice, more bloodthirsty, less subtle and his lower jaw occasionally falls off.
Well he made quite a ruckus in the North of Cyrodiil for obvious reasons, eventually word spread across the entire province about the man who literally sprung back to life. Some say it could have been necromancy gone wrong, others would point to the deadra. Lucien would enter the Cheydenhall sanctuary and haunt Arquen for a week before brutally killing her as revenge for the whole traitor situation. I don’t think he’d seek revenge on Arquen if this was regular Lucien, but yeah this Lucien is quite vindictive and really really pissed. Not in the loud anger but in the silent rage kind. He eventually makes his way to the Night Mother’s crypt to discover what happened to Bellamont, the Night Mother eventually tell him to calm tf down and that Baadahil deserted her position as Listener, at this point Baadahil is Lucien’s wife and locked herself in Cloud Ruler Temple out of heartbreak and anger.
They both confront each other and Baadahil seeing how dangerous Lucien ended up becoming (he nearly kills Martin and did a lot of collateral damage because he did not calm tf down) , she freezes him solid and seals him in a Dwemmer ruin. This event only made the Deal Brotherhood finale worse for her and Martin’s death was the final straw for her to mantle the madgod. Around 200 years later, before the events of Skyrim, Astrid learns of a legend of the Dark Brotherhood being sealed off inside a Dwemmer ruin. And so Astrid ventures in, defrosts Lucien who finally calmed down and gets him as an ally in the same way she probably got Shadowmere aka he can be brought to Nirn from the same void pool as Shadowmere.
And then the Skyrim time fuckery Au happens and that makes for a very awkward reunion. I mean if I were a 200+ year old undead assassin and found that my long lost wife has been isekaied and is now possessing the body of a Dragonborn and at one point divorced the leader of rebels in the ongoing civil war I too would be weirded out.
Anything to put a soap opera in Skyrim for pure entertainment.
My taste in fictional characters (specifically in Skyrim) are those which the game explicitly says are off limits, with the exceptions of Farkas and Vilkas.
You bet I want to marry Jarls Balgruuf or Ulfric. I will make Miraak mine. I absolutely would have Brynjolf as my beloved. Even the likes of Ondolemar because of that one goddamn line when you do a quest for him - There are so few pleasures in life as fine as your company. Like, the sheer suavity in that one damn line-
doing a couple companions quests even tho I have no intention of finishing that questline this go round and Farkas is just so......I love his big dumb ass. I think against his initial impressions of the companions at large hiisi enjoys his company but also is very upfront about being part of the dark brotherhood/thieves guild/generally nefarious activities overall but bc he never outright SAYS it Farkas doesn't even consider it as a possibility. he's just like this is my shield-brother and confidant Hiisi he's a little weird but I trust him. meanwhile Hiisi is meticulously going through the pockets of the guy he just killed and considering taking a bite of the corpse
I took a quick video of this dragon circlet before cleaning it up and shipping it off. Mannequin head be damned, filters work just fine! 😅 It will look better on you I promise!
I was looking into traditional scandinavian weddings bc I wanted a better way to write weddings in skyrim and there's a ceremony where you and your spouse exchange your weapons in a show of trust and oh my god??
