CHARACTER AESTHETIC ➜  ESSIE

「 awoken . warlock . voidwalker 」

I DON’T NEED YOUR HELP. I DON’T NEED YOUR HELP, BUT YOU ARE GOING TO NEED MINE.

YES. YES IT V MUCH IS.

Who’s more dominant: essie, for sure. they do swap off, but corvo takes the back seat for Essie.

Who’s the cuddler: neither of them. neither of them are big fans of idle touch--touch means something very important for the both of them, so it’s reserved.

Who’s the big spoon/little spoon: corvo, usually

What’s their favorite non-sexual activity: spending time with Emily

Who uses all the hot water: essie.

Most trivial thing they fight over: where one of them put something and the other can’t find it.

Who does most of the cleaning: essie, probably

What has a season pass on their dvr/Who controls the netflix queue: Emily

Who calls up the super/landlord when the heat’s not working: corvo

Who leaves their stuff around: corvo AND essie

Who remembers to buy the milk: essie

Who remembers anniversaries: emily, usually

Who cooks normally: essie

How often do they fight: rarely, if ever. and if they do, they do it away from emily.

What do they do when they’re away from each other: corvo’s a fucking wreck about it, always. the last time he came back from an extended leave, the empress got murdered and would have been murdered away from him if he hadn’t gotten home early. typically, essie tries to keep in contact as much as possible no matter who’s off on business.

Nicknames for each other: just a simple ‘Ess’’ and ‘Lord Protector’

Who is more likely to pay for dinner: this is another trivial thing they argue over.

Who steals the covers at night: neither of them

What would they get each other for gifts: i’mmmm??? not sure on this one, actually. essie would probably pass along bone charms and runes if she finds them, but neither of them really feel the need to buy gifts all that often.

Who kissed who first: corvo

Who made the first move: corvo

Who remembers things: Essie

Who started the relationship: corvo

Who cusses more: essie, mostly by virtue of the fact that corvo’s incredibly taciturn.

What would they do if the other one was hurt: on corvo’s part it’d be ‘Roaring Rampage of Revenge’, or some dialed down version of it. hes lost one love already, it’s not happening again.

Who is the dirty talker: essieeeeeeee

[1:26:23 PM] bender ¯\_(ツ)_/¯: THIS GAME IS FUCKED UP ALREADY I QUIT

[1:26:32 PM] barbie (ง •̀_•́)ง: LMAOOOOO THERE IT IS

i”M PLAYING THIS RN

MOTHERFUCKING YEAH RIGH T YOU 

I just realized that in all my orcboss AU writings, I've only ever written from the perspective of other parties.  It makes the realizations fun, but the orcs don't get much to say.  I'm here to fix that.

Faramir's rangers accepted their captain's decision, and they made little enough trouble with their orc guests.  All the same, they did not welcome the creatures.  The orcs, for their part, kept together at a safe distance; they seemed to feel the same way about the rangers.

So over the weeks, the two forces circled each other about the shared space, never getting too near or speaking with each other outside necessity.  But they did watch each other, and closely.

This night, the rangers were gathered at a table eating.  Faramir and the woman captain of the orcs were speaking just outside but well in view.  Meanwhile, the orcs huddled similarly across the hall, talking amongst themselves and looking to the conversation outside with toothy sneers.  The rangers kept an eye on the orcs.  For who knew what dark schemes these monsters spoke of?

"Lookit him," Bargol spat.  Beside him, Wargha barked out a mirthless laugh around a mouthful of cheese.  "What's that tark think he's playing at, huh?"
