I forgot I wrote a Cu X fanservant of Emer (my sister’s OC) story, I never completed it, but I remember how much I had to Mary Sue Cu because the myths literally talked so much of him. Actually I have the Tain now so maybe I can make it more accurate lol but,
“Of course,” she hugged her older sister. “Father will marry you first though. You know this. It is only proper.”
“Father can try whatever he likes. No man has ever suited my taste. Oh, but Em, the Hound of Chulainn!” Her sister twirled in the room, sighing dreamily. “A hero of Ulster! He’s every lady’s dream. Any maiden would be a fool to turn him down.”
This made her feel guilty. As she began working on her hair, putting it in a halo braid over her crown. “Fi, I think I did something horrible.”
“Hm? Em, Godspeed, Father will be furious if we take our time.”
“He’ll be more furious if we arrive early.” Her sister didn’t seem to pay any heed to her. “Fi, I—I met the Hound of Chulainn in town just before now…”
Her sister spun around, tiptoeing over to her and gasped lightly when she looked her in the eye as if gauging something. “Gods, Em! Oh! Was he everything the stories say he is?”
“Yes, he really was, and much more to my surprise, he was a lot more than just that. I’m sure he’ll make you very happy, Fi.” It was against a maiden’s virtue to be outspoken, and she had never found herself being such like that until today. She wished she could tell her father not to marry Fi to the famed Hound of Chulainn, however as the second daughter and not even the true daughter of Lusk, she had no right to take away this from her sister.
I’ll have to get permission if I posted it, the entire thing that is, (it was maybe one chapter length? I don’t have a visual of her character either but I remember when I was telling her the myth of Cu, she had somehow mistook him for a Chinese lancer--maybe she confused him with Li Shuwen--rather than Irish so her fanservant was Chinese when she made Emery--it’s Emer in myths, her OC was Emery the variation of Emer in some translations I think? Anyways, I told her weirder things happened in Fate because Altera was both an alien and Atilla the Hun so why not.)

I decided to do something a bit funky with Emer. She is a Scottish and Irish support, which I was tempted to let include all British servants but ultimately didn't want to, and the Scottish/Irish group does include 10 Gold servants including the Scathachs and BerserCu. She still functions perfectly well without Scottish/Irish allies though as her skills don't demand it, and she herself counts so she can use her targeted abilities on herself.
She is a glass cannon with the highest Attack and lowest HP of 5-star Casters, but with two different Healing skills to mitigate her low health some and an NP that can counter and stop enemies trying to hit her. I wanted to show both Emer and Bazett in my decisions. Discerning Eye comes from Emer recognizing Connla in the stories. Exchanging Riddles was how Cu wooed her so I felt it important to include in some way. Ancient Devotion is from Bazett, of course with it being labeled with her family name. Her Bond 10 CE is also from both as both would consider Cu their beloved. Territory Creation isn't really based on either, but I felt it needed as a good bump to her. Of course Bazett, with the Fragarach, has Item Construction EX...not that I gave her a kit to make great use of it, sadly. The Six Gifts of Womanhood are traits of Emer and are: beauty, a gentle voice, sweet words, wisdom, skill at needlework and chastity. I wasn't gonna try and give it six effects but I gave her a few general buffs.
Of course Bazett is one of the few living humans with a Noble Phantasm, so Fragarach absolutely had to be used...but edited a bit. This is actually another part where I used the Six Gifts of Womanhood, with decreasing the opponent's attack being an effect of her gentle voice and sweet words. The Monach is from Forgall Monach, Emer's father. Now Fragarach is only supposed to trigger on an opponent's ace card and not any attacks, but the in-game NPs don't always match lore. This was a pretty complicated one but I feel in actual application it would be straightforward. They just hit attackers for some heavy damage.
I imagine her first form would just be Bazett in her suit (which is a fucking amazing suit, may I add), but with an arm missing because it would be Emer in her body taken after Kotomine's attack. In her first ascension, it becomes a dress more befitting Emer though still with Bazett's gloves, and she gets a prosthetic of some sort. In second ascension, she gets back Bazett's natural arm (which really is probably stronger than any metal prosthetic), and her hair is longer. Final ascension art would be her in a more pimped-out dress (Which considering DW, would probably have very heavy cleavage), flanked by all five Fragarach. April Fools art would have the April Fools style Emer wearing Bazett's ridiculous Minit outfit from Carnival Phantasm, using Fragarach as a backscratcher.
Emer is a silk hiding steel type character. She's unabashedly feminine but could also kick ass and take names-it does take at least a bit of a badass to marry Irish Herakles. She also loves puzzles and riddles of any sort. She also has respect for Scathach, as the woman who trained her dear, as well as a begrudging respects-but-avoids for Cu's uncle Fergus. Meanwhile she hates Medb, but expresses it in a very irony and venom-laden way, like back-handed compliments. Bazett is alive, but in a coma state so she has very little influence on the Pseudo-Servant in comparison to others. She does sometimes have an outburst that sounds more like something Bazett would say though, and oddly has an older sisterly connection to Angra Maiinu. And of course she is very lovey-dovey with Cu-all of them, though FSN Cu is her favorite, not that she'd tell the others that. She is also very motherly to Mini-Cu.

49. "Where do they fit on the lawful alignment chart?" for any OC(s) you want?
I HAD TO THINK ABOUT THIS ONE. But I love it, thank you!! Decided to stick with my main boys for this one :3
Ariquar: Neutral good. Initially lawful evil, but transitions to neutral good when he leaves the Thalmor. Will do anything within his power to make sure people are safe, but tries to stay within the boundaries of the law for the most part - unless breaking laws means a better outcome.
Laurent: Lawful good, to an extent. He works for the crown, so he's got to have some sort of lawfulness in him. He's definitely good, and is willing to sacrifice a lot to help the people he loves while upholding his duties to King Emeric.
Álvaro: Chaotic neutral. Does things mainly for his own benefit and follows wherever fate decides to take him. Being vestige makes it hard for him to have any sort of solid plan for himself. He veers into being good a lot of the time, but that's solely because he's got a soft heart. He gets a little bit of lawful in him later in when he's off probation and is forced to stay within the law, but he's also got sticky fingers and sometimes takes what he's not supposed to. And it doesn't help that one of his partners is a necromancer on the run.
Draco: Chaotic neutral. Has done many things solely for himself and generally only thinks about what comes next for himself because he's been on his own for so long. Later on in life, after leaving Tamriel for good and starting his life over in Akavir, he leans more toward true neutral or neutral good.

To America, From a Worried European Friend
A country convinced that it is irredeemably racist can’t lead the world as the ‘indispensable nation.’
By Daniel Schwammenthal.............Brussels
History and evolutionary biology teach us that the normal course of human affairs is tribalism, oppression and poverty. The emergence of liberal democracies isn’t the inevitable endpoint of supposedly linear Western progress but an aberration—and a rather fragile one at that.
This is why the rising illiberalism in the U.S. is so troubling. Activists who seem to understand George Orwell’s “1984” not as a warning but as a manual see free speech—the lifeblood of democracy and human betterment—as a fascist tool of oppression. Other classical liberal ideals—a colorblind society, rational discourse, the scientific method—suffer the same fate.
These unenlightened views have spread with lightning speed. Once confined to the campuses of the nation’s elite universities, they have moved into the mainstream of public discourse. America’s future leaders have been spoon-fed two theories born of Marxism. One is postmodernism, so called because it rejects the liberal ideas of modernity and the very notion of objective truth. The other is critical theory, which is preoccupied with uncovering hidden power structures that have supposedly stood in the way of a communist revolution.
These once-fringe theories have given rise to quasireligious dogmas that divide society into hierarchies of oppressor and oppressed, setting the stage for eternal societal strife. In this new cult, dissent or insufficient fervor is interpreted both as validation of the doctrine of ubiquitous racism and a punishable thought crime. As in medieval witch hunts, both denial and forced confessions prove the defendant’s guilt.
On the other end of the political spectrum we find right-wing populism, which imagines “pure people” taking on a corrupt elite, and of course the far right, with its Nazi infatuation. The wide availability of guns in the U.S. isn’t only a subject of dispute in the unfolding culture war but could help turn it deadly. Witness the recent synagogue shootings by real white supremacists. Anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism are obsessions shared by the far left and the far right. America is headed for unprecedented polarization and possibly civil unrest.
But why am I, a German Jew living in Brussels, so worried about U.S. domestic affairs? As the adage goes, when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. Right now America has pneumonia.
I learned to cherish the U.S. long before I had the privilege to live and study there. History can be very personal. What Madeleine Albright called the “indispens-able nation” meant the difference between life and death for my family. I was brought up in the firm knowledge that had it not been for those unimaginably brave American boys storming the beaches of Normandy, I wouldn’t have been born, and my parents and the rest of my people would have been extinguished. No doubt I’m leaving out entire libraries of nuance, but that is the quintessential truth.
America today is what it has always been: a flawed society, like all others, but also a unique force for good in the world. No other multiethnic, multireligious society can credibly claim to be more democratic, more prosperous and more just than the U.S.
But America can’t remain the leader of the free world if it is itself no longer free. To be the guarantor of Western security requires military and economic power, but also a sense of mission. And right now Americans are committing mass character suicide. If the country goes beyond acknowledging that racism and inequality persist and must be fought, and instead convinces itself that it’s inherently and irredeemably racist, it can’t possibly continue to believe that it has any right to lead. Such an America would reject the notion that the West is worth defending and regard Europe as also inherently oppressive. We know who will fill the vacuum left by an America in retreat and at war with itself. As they watch America’s self-immolation, leaders in Moscow, Beijing and Tehran surely can’t believe their luck.
Any functioning society must extend tribal loyalty beyond the ties of blood. Ethnicity and Christianity were the glue that helped hold the more homogenous European nation states together. America’s Founding Fathers laid the foundation of a society worthy of the motto “e pluribus unum”—out of many, one—by replacing ethnic and religious loyalties with liberal ideas and deist ideals. A shared loyalty to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution allows Americans to see each other not as strangers but as fellow citizens.
Yes, the U.S. has not always lived up to its ideals. But to claim that the Founding’s “promissory note” was never anything but a scam to maintain a system of white oppression is ahistorical revisionism that will erode the country’s foundation.
European anti-Americanism constantly imagines the rise of fascism in the very country that defeated the real thing and constantly predicts the end of liberty in the world’s oldest democracy. I have always proudly opposed this view. But I am reminded now of Benjamin Franklin’s famous line: “A Republic, if you can keep it.” For the first time I have terrifying doubts.

8. Do you have a fate/oc? Describe them! 1. Favourite servant? OTHER THAN CU
1. BUT I LOVE CÚ CHULAINN SO MUCH!! ( ALL OF THEM, ALL THE CÚ, INCLUDING MINI CU! ). I really love Fate’s Mordred! Mordred is my son and the main reason why I pushed myself to watch every episode of F/Apocrypha dfghjk.
8. DOES FERDIAD AND EMER COUNT?!?!?!! ( because otherwise, I’ve none yoy ) They really caught my interest once I started getting into the Ulster’s cycle and I don’t know when will I stop thinking about them, how much Cú love these two and just how dramatic and stupid were these assholes, which show they were the perfect match for my disaster son.
Emer aka the perfect balance for Cú and loyal wife that was neither a perfect balance nor loyal. In general, Emer is painted as this perfect housewife that has a soft voice and that all but the other side of Emer is like: Talks in riddles to this wild ( and cute ) guy that can’t flirt for shit for 10 min and goes ‘that’s gonna be my husband :v3’, gives him these tasks that kind of sound like she had foreseen that her old man would oppose to their marriage so old man and his army needed to go down ( + kill a bunch of people that were between their fords. me: why? emer: because. ), scare the fuck out of some big shot older king with just a few words, kidnap her half-sister and steal her old man’s gold, call out the noblemen of Ulster on their bullshit, gather about 50 women with knives to kill her husband and lover. Like wow! This girl was just wild and a rebel no matter how much her dad tried to make her follow his will. Also, I’ll forever laugh at the tale where she just drops everything to elope with some prince without saying a word to anyone and Laeg and Cú think that she’s been kidnapped so Cú goes to recover his wife and kill the ‘kidnapper’. And then this girl has the audacity to make a scandal when Cú does the same with Fand. She’s just the best and terrible and I love how she didn’t stick to the more passive role of a wife of a hero. Emer does whatever the fuck she wants and I’m here to enable her terrible decisions. That’s why I chose to write her around the time she eloped with Cú on his chariot all Mad Max style because that’s her at her wildest and finally getting to live her life and make her own terrible choices. She’s a very active girl, very curious about her surroundings, unapologetic and willing to do everything to get what she wants.
And Ferdiad aka both my disaster’s son first boyfriend and that one ex. Censored by fate, christian translations and the ‘alright, they kissed and called each other heart-companions and slept in the same bed but it was probably all symbolical to show that they were good friends :////’, I needed to make him justice but also punch him because, when I’m not crying about his tragic death, I’m ready to throw hands because dude! this guy was an asshole! ( also, the person with whom Cú had the closest bond and they were really cute together, which makes me go uwu ), a bastard! I’m still shocked that he was the only person that made Cú Chulainn cry ( and multiple times ) and still had the audacity to taunt him and say that Cú had been his b in front of his best friend. This guy was the perfect example of an unmovable object because no matter how much Cú cried and begged him to not fight, Ferdiad was just determined. And then’s when he loses, he’s badass and petty enough to go ‘tis but a scratch’ and tell Cú it’s his fault and then he just freaking dies. Iconic. No fanfiction has as much drama as the one story between these two problematic boyfriends from over 2,000 years ago and I think it’s great. But, unlike Emer who is just living her life, when I write Ferdiad, he’s very aware and sorry for all his bullshit because he really fucked up and he won’t deny it. There are degrees of being an asshole but Ferdiad really went overboard with it for his stupid pride as a warrior and lost both his love and life for it and there’s just no way he can fix his broken relationship with Cú. I mean, he does try and he’s really sorry for it but I’m still! No Ferdiad! You fucked up bad! Accept the facts! Another thing that I like to point out when writing Ferdiad is that he’s really strong. Like very strong, it’s a shame it goes unnoticed since it’s Cú’s story and it’s not mentioned often but Ferdiad had gotten himself quite the amount of feats and titles during his life. Even before Cú arrived at the Land of Shadows, Ferdiad had already become the leader of Scathach’s students and then becomes the commander of the Gamanrad, who were like the super elite warriors of Connacht. And Cú’s and Ferdiad battle wasn’t even that balanced because Ferdiad was throwing Cú around like a leaf and Cú was panicking during their battle because there was just no way he would be able to win in a fair fight. Bring two invincible warriors that also were Scathach’s students to fight by his side? Well, too bad you’re fighting Ferdiad Mac Daman, who only needs to feel the extra pressure on his shield to identify said warriors and swing his sword to his sides to kill them. Ferdiad didn’t mess around when it came to fighting and I love battle-hungry characters ( even if I can’t write fight threads uou ).

main icon change to emer’s rl FC because I am slowly changing her from fate OC to a simple mythology OC . she will still have a FGO verse & possibly a HGW verse, for those unfortunate souls that somehow did not manage to fit into fgo canon even tho fgo is the most open... but her main verse is going to be mostly myth / 200 BC ireland mixed with lots of magic & after cú’s death .

Hey girl! Can you please tell us (your eager readers) who are the OCs you like writing the most?
Laure and her trick questions, hahaha. Thanks for asking. :)
I love all my ladies. At the moment, they are all fighting for my attention, but Edyff is winning because I want to finish Victory and Destiny this weekend before I get carried away and it turns into a looooong fanfic.
I love writing Moyra because of the topic and I try to travel in time to see things from her perspective.
What I love about writing Emer is that she is patient and caring. Her emotions might be conflicted because her dreams are fated to failure as her father will never accept foreigners in their lands, but she knows where her loyalty lies on. It’s with Ivar and I’m almost slapping myself for what I’m writing for her in the next chapters.
I enjoy writing Blaeja because she faced horrible things and it’s still capable of sweetness, but don’t let the facade of dutiful Princess fool you. Her motto would be: “Good girls are bad girls that haven’t been caught.” Ivar is pleasantly surprised that she enjoys his torture. HAHAHAHAHA.
I love how Edyff knows the only way to save her son is to lose him and that he will lose his identity. Does it matter for her? Is she willing to pay the price of not recognizing the son that came out of her womb?
My sweet Fionnuala is so naive and writing her journey to discover her strength and femininity is like therapy.

GETTING TO KNOW THE MUN :
NICKNAME : Oompa! But sometimes I throw my real name out there too -- Meg!
FACECLAIM : No, you can’t have it, it’s mine! I really don’t use one for myself, honestly!
HEIGHT : 5′5″ish?
BIRTHDAY : February 18th!
AESTHETIC : I tend to go for the more neutral and natural themed things, and I tend to keep things gloomy. I’m all too happy when it rains (and the heavier the better)! I also tend to go for the abstract or surreal sorts of arts.
LAST SONG YOU LISTENED TO : Twin Shadow: To the Top. It’ssogood.
FAVORITE MUSE (S) YOU’VE WRITTEN : I’ve roleplayed a TON of characters through the years -- and I have to say Red is certainly one of them (which I’ll detail in the questions to come). I also enjoyed roleplaying a very minor character named Serina from a very obscure PS2 RPG known as Magna Carta: Tears of Blood. I’ve also had my fair share of OC’s, but my favorite of those was a neurotic teenager that flails and bends reality ( and mostly uses that to form weird rubber duckies ) named Emere. I should revive that character blog because I miss her.
GETTING TO KNOW THE ACCOUNT :
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO TAKE ON THIS MUSE : When I was recently watching a play-through of Transistor ( which if you haven’t played it, PLEASE DO SOMEDAY ), I noticed that Red takes the role of silent protagonist -- but not in any traditional way. She calls out for help over social media after she’s attacked, and later shows concern over the safety of people when more issues pop up. Red does so many little things that makes her so full of personality. She turns left on the highway when her lover says not to, so they can skip town; no, she wants answers, they’re staying. When Red leaves her apartment after resting, she locks herself out of it deliberately because she knows she’s not coming back. She frolics and spins around with the Transistor for no reason, other than the fact that she just can. Through these actions you, the player, just get to see that she’s a beautiful and varied individual, and she doesn’t even have to say a single word. And I wanted to try and write that.
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE ASPECTS OF YOUR CURRENT MUSE : Aside from her personality that I just gushed about, I think my favorite part is how she seems to get along with almost everybody. So far, she’s had great interactions with characters, and because of her, I just can’t get over that damn Monkey x Red ship ( @slave-949, here’s lookin’ at you, boo ). That and she’s both easy and difficult to roleplay because of her mute aspect from time to time -- it makes me think on how to write actions, body language, expressions, and the like!
WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST INSPIRATION WHEN IT COMES TO WRITING : This is a hard question to answer -- but the easiest answer I can think of is roleplay and just creation in general is what inspires me. I lay in bed at night, thinking of plot ideas, or hypothetical situations and results in threads, or situations I want to write my characters through someday. That, and I. Love. Collaboration. And when plans are put into place, I get stupidly excited and sit at the edge of my seat to see how things unfold.
HAVE I TOLD YOU I LOVE ROLEPLAYING? BECAUSE, BITCHES, I LOVE PLAYING PRETEND.
FAVORITE TYPES OF THREADS : I’m good with just about any! However, I have a fondness for romance or dangerous situations that spiral into dealing with heavy injury or having to fight tooth and nail to get out of. But on the same token, I do enjoy me some supernatural (not the show) or horror themed threads too!
BIGGEST STRUGGLE IN REGARDS TO YOUR CURRENT MUSE : The biggest struggle that I’ve encountered so far is the fact that Transistor is an indie game that, while it did well, a lot of people still don’t know it. Which is a shame. The problem this presents is that not a lot of people know about Red, or her weird freaking sword-boyfriend-situation-thing ( which I tend to leave out, and just say the sword is weird instead ). As of right now, there’s a few Transistor themed roleplay blogs, but they’ve been abandoned for at least a year -- which means threads based on the game are gonna be low in number, and it’s gonna be a bunch of crossovers for me.
That’s okay. This chick loves crossovers of all kinds.

"quiet me" for the prompt, please, any pairing you prefer : )
Quiet Me - Carver(Templar)/Emer(OC)
“He’s going to kill me! I didn’t do anything wrong, and he’s going to -”
“Look, just shut up, would you?”
Carver growled, wrapping one hand around the gibbering mage’s arm to drag her out of the main corridor. He picked door at random, pulling her into the dark confines of a broom cupboard. Ser Alrik was on the prowl, angry at something he had either learned from or been told by Knight-Commander Meredith, and Emer was an easy target. The Knight-Commander never even blinked when she heard of unpleasantness aimed at the last surviving Threnhold.
Emer was sobbing, terror seeping from every pore as she trembled, unable to quiet herself even when her life depended on it. Trapped in a dark space with a templar - even a templar who had been kind to her - was a fate she had always tried to avoid. Not for her the secret trysts that some templars forced on mages, whether they were welcomed or not. She was a target of choice for the nastier side of certain tempers, and Ser Alrik’s temper was not one she had ever wanted to get on the bad side of. All she had done was look at him; if she hadn’t been braced to run, she was certain he would have condemned her to Tranquility on the spot, just for existing.
Carver hadn’t known any of this was happening when Emer had barreled around the corner and run straight into him. He’d only been aware that a mage close to his own age was terrified and running; that she’d screamed when his hands had closed over her arms. Even here and now, when silence was her greatest ally, she was loud in her fear, utterly failing to muffle the whimpering cries that punctuated her terror.
“Emer ... look at me, listen ...” He gripped her arms, peering at her in the gloom. “You have to calm down. He’ll hear you!”
“I-I ... I can’t, I ... he ... what if ...”
The clank of armor in the corridor beyond the door caught Carver’s attention. What would Seryn do? he found himself wondering. Not that he needed to wonder far - his sister would probably burst out of the closet and attack. She wasn’t subtle, Seryn. But this was the Gallows, and a dead templar would attract all sorts of terrible attention. Emer would almost certainly be made Tranquil if he attacked a brother on her behalf, and then ... there wouldn’t be any more shy smiles in the library. No more passed notes on patrols. No more innocent touches of hand to hand as they passed in the halls. He couldn’t bear the thought of seeing her made Tranquil, any more than he could stomach the idea of Seryn suffering the same fate. His sister had not forgiven him for joining the Order, but how else was he supposed to protect her? He’d failed Bethany; he wouldn’t fail Seryn. And right now ... he refused to fail Emer.
“... the little bitch? Where?” Ser Alrik’s voice growled beyond the door, far too close for comfort.
Emer wailed, certain she was soon for death or worse, and Carver ... just reacted.
His gauntleted hand cupped her jaw, pulling the petite woman close as his lips captured hers, the only thing he could think of to muffle her, to distract her from her terror. He felt her squeak beneath the unexpected kiss; felt her struggle and soften as the tension faded from her form. There was nothing but this darkness, this kiss, and as her soft hands crept to his cheeks, he finally let himself admit that this was what he had been wanting for far too long.
With gentle hands, he lifted her from her feet, pressing her back against the shelves that crowded the dark space, lips parting to ravish her mouth with hungry desire. She gasped as his fingers lifted her robe to knead at the tender flesh of her thigh, her legs wrapping tight about his hips, the danger forgotten. Did she want this, too? Was she just as tight with forbidden yearning each time their eyes met in this deadly place?
He wanted ... but he didn’t dare go too far. He didn’t want to be a templar that took what he wanted without a care for the wish of his charge. As the angry voices faded away, Carver gently lowered Emer to the floor, letting her robe slip back to modestly cover her legs as his kiss tenderly came to an end. She stared up at him, resin-dark eyes wide with unmistakable longing.
“There,” he murmured softly, one thumb stroking the tears from her cheeks. “He’s gone.”
She shivered, leaning into the protective curl of his hand to her cheek as her eyes closed, savoring the unexpected warmth of a touch not meant to harm. “I ... thank you, Ser Carver.”
“Just Carver,” he told her sternly, tilting her chin until she looked into his eyes. “I promised once that I wouldn’t let you be hurt for no reason, Emer. I, um ... I think we can both guess why, now.”
Despite her habitual fear, her learned meekness, he thought he saw a flicker of impishly sweet joy skitter over her face as she leaned into the press of his armor against her chest. “Carver,” she whispered, quiet now in his arms.
It was madness, to love a mage. Here in the Gallows, it was a death sentence if he was caught. Finally, he understood just why his mother had taken the risks she had. He would do that much, and more, just to see Emer Threnhold’s smile in the sunlight. They just had to survive Kirkwall somehow, in softness and secrecy. One day, things would improve.
But for now, there was quiet and calm, and these kisses to hold close, until they could find some way to be free.
Thank you, @damnedapostate, for this prompt! I haven’t really explored too much of Carver and Emer yet - wasn’t expecting it to go in this direction!
Prompt me, I dare you. I’ll write anything Dragon Age, any pairing - even my own OCs!

Well…these are just drafts so far but if there will some changes, maybe just some minor ones I guess. So far, I haven’t decided yet which Servant class she best fits but I’m kind of thinking maybe an Archer or Caster or perhaps a Lancer like her husband 🤔
