Moar medievalish AUs:


Gren/Viren:

"Physiological Effects"

The rush of heat and loss of focus was sudden.  Viren pushed another slice of fruit against Gren's lips.  Gren chewed it, wondering why it was important, but then he realized; it was equalizing the dose, to make sure they were similarly affected.

Viren grimaced.  "It was foolish not to suspect physiological effects." He gestured at the door, strengthening the spells to keep it locked and the room silenced.  


Virrow:

something something gutter rat Viren IDK what are titles:

Harrow looked at him in with mild surprise. "You've only had jelly tarts twice? In your whole life? That's a travesty!" He clasped Viren's shoulder. "You can definitely have some if we lose, too."


"Incognito" (or something like that):

As the bright, swirling powder dissipated, Harrow recognized his friend. Viren apologized about the spell.  Then, with a puzzled frown, he asked, "Were you really going to ask a stranger to dance... because he looked like me? Do you do this all the time?"

"I don't make a habit of it, no."


Quest aftermath thing:

"I would gag you, if anyone would be here to listen to your provocative nonsense!"
"What?  Where are you going?"
"To perform my princely duties.  I didn't know you would arrive today.  Just one of many things you've kept from me."
  


lonespark: (Djaq3)
I have a lot of WIPs, y'all.
Some of them are still more notes than quotable sentences, tho...
Some have working titles that may or may not suck...
(Picking sentences is REALLY HARD!!!)

Here's some of my TDP AUs that are still medieval-ish:

"Rites of Spring"

Viren had saved every last coin he could scrape up for a months to buy the ribbons, needles, thread, and the silk flowers.  Then he had spent an inordinate amount of time crafting his vision, just to wear it for a single day.

But what a day! At the spring festival, even an impoverished apprentice mage best known for inciting arguments with his noble patron's friends at court could earn smiles ranging from friendly to lustful.  That seemed a good sign, an endorsement of his efforts, but the crucial test was yet to arrive.  At midday all would dance the trees to encourage fertile sprouting in the coming year, and the prince would be watching.


"Bonds of Destiny"(?) H/V arranged marriage AU

"No one can say I shirked my duty!  I pledged to love and serve him and I did, every day and hour of my life! He is the one who broke with duty, and broke my heart!"

Viren's mother found his fiery outburst and subsequent aggrieved wailing undignified, but even this could be used to bargain with the queen.

"Your son has ruined mine!  He has left him betrayed and broken, unfit for marriage and barely fit for aught else!"  


An Oracle Made Them Get Married (Virrow and Sarai/Opeli at the beginning)

"I have a son." 

Harrow's face lit up. "How old is he? I'd love to meet him!"

Everything about Sarai grew softer and warmer after that.

Viren and Opeli shared a bitter look. 


Roleswap thing in which Viren was very bad at being king

A compromised leader is a beacon of weakness and a target for ambition.  Viren understood that, pragmatically resigned to his fate when General Sarai seized the throne by Right of Arms. 

She looked at High Mage Harrow like he was sunlight, and Viren couldn't blame anyone for doing that. But Harrow looked back at her with an interest that made Viren wish he had perished on the field of combat. Not that she would have killed him... probably. She didn't seem to be the sort of person who would deprive children of their father without a compelling strategic objective.


"Abomination" (genderbend/swap/whatever Virrow)

In two strides the queen crossed the room, pinning Viren against the workbench.  Viren put the knife aside, smearing more blood on her lips in the process.  Harrow evidently found that inspiring, claiming her lips in a demanding kiss.

"You like this."

"I... yes.  I shouldn't!  But... I do."
