Typical Caerwyn

[lenna_nightrunner]

I thought I'd share this little anecdote with you guys for the lulz:

In-game Caerwyn has shut Lel down. I have no idea what he did, but that little fuck no longer has the option to romance Leliana. I am given to understand that Shimmy has never done this before, and in fact often has the opposite problem, where Lel keeps falling in love with her PCs!

This is so typical of Caerwyn. Now Shimmy is going to have to help me mod the fscking game so Caer can romance Lel.

What have I wrought?!

:O

You're right, he does.

The cat-mod wants us all to write Caerwyn/Zev spice for Valentine's Day.

Who are we to demur?

[lenna_nightrunner]

I am laughing so hard right now, you've no idea. When the exchange is all over, I will discuss the banner.

All hail the Cat-Mod!

[scarylady]

We worship you, O Cat-Mod.

The Sugar & Spice motif is an awesome idea, btw.

[lenna_nightrunner]

I wish I could take credit for it, but Shimmy came up with the name/theme. Plus she made the beautiful banners. Dragon-Mod is a very dedicated, talented woman.

I did suggest the idea of adding a contest element to the event, because I think that makes it a bigger deal and extra fun :D

Thanks for the awesome idea, by the way! Secret Santas are fun and all, but we'll have a Secret Cupid! Or whatever the Thedas equivalent of that is, anyway.

Everyone's too busy at Xmas. Valentine's gives us more wiggle room and a different theme

In response to your giggling in the other thread...

The only reason I refrained from commenting earlier is because I'm afraid of stepping across the line from "fangirl" to "backseat writer" if I make any more Caer/Zev comments after the direction of Caerwyn's preferences have been made obvious.

[lenna_nightrunner]

Fear not: you will never annoy me on the Caerwyn front. Everything to do with Caerwyn is always entertaining to me. He may be annoyed about it, but I don't think I'll ever stop being amused. Probably because it annoys him XD

See--He's glaring at me right now! *giggle*

[elysium_fic]

LOL, well, having been on the other side of the "you need to do THIS with your story" thing has made me very leery of being a backseat writer myself, so even though I find the idea of Caer/Zev infinitely hubba-hubba hawt, I probably won't be saying much on that front anymore, even though it means depriving myself of Caer's delightful glares.

[lenna_nightrunner]

However you want to handle it, just know that you needn't fear any irritation on my part :)

The 'Caeran' one-shot I've been working on is still in progress, but of course VLS'v does come first. I want to acknowledge the fangirl love!

[scarylady]

That's always the way I've seen the situation, and why I have unhesitatingly stepped in where Elysium feared to tread :D

[lenna_nightrunner]

I'd sensed that trend ;)

Clearly, everyone should write a Caerwyn fic and then we can guess which one is mine!

[scarylady]

The sight of his ferocious little face and stabbity dagger pleases me. When I get placid-Caerwyn icon I know I'm not trying hard enough.

[lenna_nightrunner]

Hm, you're right. There's a trend! What's funny is that the "placid" (read: pretty eyes) Caerwyn has blood all over him plus a blood watermark on top (because Shimmy is amazing). I guess the real "placid" one is the one for VLS'v. (above)

[lenna_nightrunner]

Notice that there's still blood *snerk*

[scarylady]

He's in that post-bloodbath peaceful moment, when all's right with the world.

I always think that would be the best moment to ask him something you wanted him to agree to.

[lenna_nightrunner]

You have perceived much about Caerwyn's character. *snerk*

[scarylady]

It would be the best time to write Caerwyn/Zev sex. Peaceful smile meets gleeful whoop on the back of a dead dragon. While Alistair tries to poke his own eyes out.

[lenna_nightrunner]

Lmao you make a good point.

[scarylady]

I'm not sure; I didn't get the stabbity icon. Perhaps my point lacked punch :(

[lenna_nightrunner]

Caerwyn just thinks you need more STAB in your life ;)

[elysium_fic]

I'd be happy to read that, though my brain still doesn't like the idea of playing writing with someone else's toys.
