Kyriakos | Memories 48 & 49
48. "Oh. Well. This certainly isn't awkward." ★ (Neutral Trivial)
Once upon a time, there was this memory. This one is a direct continuation of it!
Tempest continues drinking and drinking with her dwarven challenger, the two have finally bonded and become friendly with each other. And that leads to them getting . . . very friendly. Before she realizes it, she's at the man's home, and now things are getting heated in another way entirely.
Bow chicka bow wow, Dwarf sex.
Tempest wakes up the next morning and is utterly confused when she realizes she has no idea where she is, until she spots the man next to her, also looking confused and . . . embarrassed. Tempest does he best not to blush, and instead decides to break the awkward silence by . . . pointing out how this wasn't awkward at all.
It does get the man to laugh, though, and he offers to make her breakfast while she bathes and changes and all that. All in all, not a bad memory.
What she learned:
- She drank way too much
- WAAAY TOO MUCH
- Dwarves are . . . very nice sex partners . . . ??
- Sure did have sex with a Dwarf tho
- At least he was nice and made her breakfast
49. Being invited "home" ★ (Significant Positive)
Tempest, her cousin Baelvan, and her uncle Zahar are eating dinner one night - they'd found a small village to stop in, and there's a sense of something happening soon (the final battle, which she already remembers). It's fairly relaxed, despite the tension about what will happen tomorrow.
Conversations are about nothing in particular, until Zahar asks what the two of them plan to do once they head home. Tempest, not used to thinking that way, just shrugs in answer. Her cousin responds by saying he may return home, but he hasn't decided yet - to which his father just nods and smiles. But the both of them are watching Tempest, who is pretending that her dinner is suddenly very interesting. Why would she think that far ahead? She isn't sure what she's going to do with her life after this, there's no purpose, so on and so forth—
Zahar interrupts her thoughts by asking if she'd like to come home with him. "Home", he says, as if it's her home too. She gives him an incredulous look and points out that she wouldn't be allowed, not only because she's half-elf, but because she's committed too many crimes and so forth that the elves would look down upon. Zahar immediately dismisses that and says that it's up to him, and if she wants a home to return to after the war, then his and Baelvan's is open to her. Baelvan agrees, and says that if she chooses that option, he'll go back with her.
Tempest manages to thank them, in her little dismissive way, but mentally she's shocked, taken aback, and . . . tentatively hopeful. It's the first time she's ever felt that way and as they finish up dinner and go to her rooms, she tries to imagine what it would be like to have a home again. That night, she has the best sleep she's had in years.
What she learned:
- she had a home to go back to
