Tuesday March 28.

It's Tuesday: so Skyrim.

You know, it's funny that goats should be so prevalent in the magical Skyrim universe, as the internet might just say that the Elder Scrolls: #skyrim is the G.O.A.T. of video games. If not the internet, Dear Reader, then at least we here at Tumblr. We who have spent countless hours wandering the misty mountains, battling dragons, bartering with NPCs, staring out across the landscape, and, of course, Shouting various goats from the rock face and into the abyss below. That'll learn 'em. Countless hours, countless fun. Fuuuus, Ro Dah! 

For whatever joyous reason, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim finds itself trending on Tumblr today. Which is total delight for us. It is quite simply one of the greatest games ever to materialize on our screens and a beautiful, enchanting world that remains every bit as popular more than *ten years* after its first release. And for very good reason.

Happy Tuesday, folks. Why not celebrate with 20 Quotes From Skyrim That Are Absolutely Hilarious x

Begging, begging, begging people to stop associating aging and femininity in men/masculine people as Wrong and Predatory. Femininity has no age limit.

To any feminine man, masculine person, or really, anybody who needs to hear this: Your femininity deserves to be recognized and celebrated. Aging is a natural and unique part of life, and you don't have to sacrifice your femininity for fear of being "too old" to be accepted or seen as charming. You are already charming.

There is no limit to being who you are. No matter what you're told, you still deserve to completely claim yourself.

“...someone stole your sweetroll.” My first skyrim/pop culture pattern!! After hearing this phrase many, many times these past months I had to make a sweetroll pattern. The finished design is roughly 5x6.5″ or 12x16 cm, perfect for a small frame or hoop. Stitches up pretty quickly and would make a great gift. Find it here.

What it feels like to open your tumblr dash and being immediately blasted with a random person's supreme rage on a hyper-specific (irrelevant to you) situation:

[daisychainsandbowties]

i have sadly been thinking about the skyrim au all night

consider:

- ava is the dragonborn. obviously. 

she wears light armour. elven-inspired but dyed in blacks and silvers (’because my name, mary. silva. do you get it?’’ava i will fling you off the cloudtop district.’) 

she fights with a sword/shield combo (found a stalhrim sword in a tomb, would die for it) & uses a standard elven shield, but also in black. she dual-wields swords, sometimes, but mary doesn’t like it. watches ava doing a fancy pirouette and says ‘yeah, wow, that looks like a great way to get stabbed.’ 

ava can also be found using a greatsword (skyforged steel) but eventually all of her weapons will be dragonbone. because sexy.

she wants to learn magic! ‘what kind of magic?’ ‘uhm... all of it?’

also. concept: ava with FUS RO DAH

-  mary and shannon are Companions (which means, yes, they are also werewolves). ava is in the companions and mary simply refuses to turn her into a wolf. “you’re the dragonborn, ava. you have enough problems.” “oh, come on, i could fit, like, one more problem.” 

shannon is the harbinger and is, like ava, a sword + shield user. she’s kind of famous but pretends not to know about it. wears the wolf armour set. 

mary uses a really big axe. like, really big. she wears the GOOD steel armour. 

-  bea is a necromancer in the College of Winterhold (she also specialises in destruction and dabbles in restoration - has long, heated arguments with the head of restoration about the disciplines being ‘functionally identical’). 

wears dark robes in the college style, but a little stylised, kind of bloodborne hunter-esque. (read: she has a little half-cloak and suspenders)

she doesn’t tell anyone, but she’s a superb knife-thrower. keeps a few stashed on her person, just in case her magicka runs out (unlikely).  

she’s a little bit more arrogant in this au. a little bit more confident about herself. but intensely private. has never once talked about her feelings. suspects that she would drop dead if she tried. 

she’s the lead researcher at the Saarthal excavation, but she needs a crew to venture deeper inside. which is when she meets ava and mary, who happen upon her in the corona of an intense magical dogfight with a group of mages who’ve occupied a nearby fort

- lilith is in the thieves guild. she’s kind of vex,  she’s kind of karliah. (read: just so incredibly sexy)

lilith has a daedric sword. bask in that image for a sec. 

she’s also, unfortunately, the Listener (which she found out after a contract brought her inside the Dark Brotherhood’s (sexy assassins) sanctuary and she hid inside the Night Mother’s coffin. rookie mistake) 

lilith tends to use a sword/dagger combo or a sword/magic combo (generally summoning atronachs. (thinks the fire ones are overdone. sticks to storm and frost constructs)

she dabbles in destruction magic, mainly to (viv from dragon age-style) freeze people who annoy her. 

beholden of the Night Mother, but sworn into Nocturnal’s service. (this is pre-canon days for the guild. because i say so)

- camila is also in the thieves guild. but in an adorable way. in just the cutest way.

also a skilled alchemist. develops non-lethal poisons so that lilith ‘doesn’t have to stab everything you see.’ - camera pan to lilith lounging on a sofa ‘where’s the fun in that?’ 

uses a bow, but is also a dab hand at invisibility spells. they’re not the most stable though, have a tendency to putter out after about 20 seconds. 

she’s working on a design for a hand crossbow. 

- at the beginning of the au they are all somewhat mid-way through their respective paths.

ava is the thane of whiterun, but she hasn’t climbed the Throat of the World. is, frankly, avoiding it. ava wants to ride on a dragon so bad (“mary, if cool why evil?”)

mary is enabling her with contracts from the companions and the hunt for ysgramor’s weapon fragments. 

bea is (obviously) just at the saarthal excavation. has yet to uncover the eye of magnus. she’s fascinated by ancient magic, the dwemer, the snow elves etc. etc. also would genuinely commit crimes to get her hands on an Elder Scroll. (baby wanted to be a moth priest as a child. so ill-advised)

lilith is a nightingale AND, unfortunately, being actively hunted by the Dark Brotherhood because they need her to listen to their corpse woman. 

cam wants to be a nightingale more than anything. she & lilith are kind of a tag-team situation (where Lilith is brawn/intimidation/sneak and stab and cam is long range support/proper footpad stuff w/o violence, knockout darts etc etc.)

bea initially thinks that ava is incredibly reckless, but their excavation of saarthal changes that...

I promise I'm learning to become a real video game animator but I've never laughed so hard at something I've done on purpose before
