Ulfric Stormcloak: I went to Riften recently and a seven year old smoking a cigarette told me to go impale myself.

Lydia, leaning over to whisper to Leara: I thought Aventus quit.

Oh! And my favourite screenshots I've taken today - a view of Eastmarch at different times of day (early morning, daytime, evening, nighttime!). If you squint, Windhelm and the Palace of the Kings are visible on the horizon!

My boyfriend: Windhelm? That’s where the racists are. That’s where the racists are racist to the racists.

a Skyrim journey, 58/?

The civil war quest line in Skyrim always get to me when it comes to Whiterun.

I usually end up siding with the imperials for both personal and role play reasons. When General Tulius sends you off to Whiterun, Jarl Barlgruf will ask you to deliver an axe to Ulfric Stormcloak, basically as a gift and to test the waters in a way. When you do get to Wildhelm and try to deliver the axe on Barlgruufs behalf, Ulfric will apologize and turn you away. It’s important to mention that Ulfric and Barlgruuf used to be friends. And as far as I can tell, pretty good(and close) friends at that. I can only imagine how Barlgruuf feels when the Dragonborn shows up as a soldier and messenger in Whiterun, being told that his once close old friend plans to siege his home.

I can honestly see it in my mind. Barlgruuf offering his sword, asking his once friend to tell him it’s not true. Getting his sword pushed back into him, and told to stand. They cannot fight properly if he grovels, mourning a friendship that Ulfric feels is long over.

Both feel betrayed, but for entirely different reasons.

(Sorry if this doesn’t make sense I’m autistic and it’s been a long day) (on another note, do y’all have any thoughts?)

Balgruuf the Greater: Don't take this personally . . .

Ulfric Stormcloak: Best I can do is take it extremely personally, immediately.
