[ AGGRESSIVELY FALLS IN LOVE WITH A VIDEO GAME CHARACTER ]
these were requested by @crazy-elf-from-vallenwood and are presented in no particular order 💕
They’re somewhere in their late-thirties-early-forties by 4E 1, and Martin is a couple years older but also a few inches shorter (5′5″ versus 5′9″). Lucien thinks their height difference is the most hilarious thing ever. Martin doesn’t find it very funny.
Lucien is gay, Martin is bi. Neither of them have much prior dating experience, but Martin definitely slept around with the Sanguine cult. He was expecting a friends-with-benefits arrangement with Lucien and was totally fine with that, but then, oops, he caught feelings!
Martin was the first to confess, but it was completely by accident… in the heat of the moment, so to speak. You know. While they were otherwise occupied.
Lucien is your classic Casanova flirt and is constantly putting the moves on Martin– sweet talk, pet names, slow dancing, you name it. Martin’s a lot more practical in his affection, though, and likes to show it with lots of little gestures, like breakfast in bed or other cute domestic things.
Lucien is very overprotective of Martin. He’s not jealous or anything, but he tends to assume that every visiting diplomat wants Martin deposed or assassinated or what-have-you. Even when he’s wearing finery around the Imperial Palace, he’s always visibly armed. Just in case! Martin is thankful for it because, after what happened to the rest of his Septim family, he’s honestly a little paranoid too.
Martin is very nostalgic for his rural upbringing and insists on eating traditionally “low-class” food and ingredients at most meals in the Palace; think soup, bread, in-season produce, and overall not a lot of meat. He likes to make his own meals by hand, when he has the time and energy. Lucien is hooked on the luxury of the Palace kitchens, though, and tends to gravitate towards the most expensive dish on the table during banquets, especially fresh meat like rare steaks. Still, he’ll happily eat anything Martin cooks, because Martin’s damn good at it.
Lucien struggles with a rare form of RBF known as Resting Serial Killer Face. Sometimes, when trying to be romantic, he accidentally gives Martin the heebie-jeebies. He’s secretly a little self-conscious about it.
That being said, Martin definitely has a “thing” for assassins, rogues, and other cliché bad-boys. He’s read a good number of romance novels over the years, especially while he was a priest.
Both Lucien and Martin love to get wine-drunk after rough days and tell each other crazy stories about their respective religious backgrounds. You’d be surprised how many hilarious anecdotes Martin has from his time with the Akatosh Chantry.
They each have issues with separation anxiety, and as a result, they’re almost always together. They’re pretty much seen as a package deal by most people, both inside and outside of the Imperial City. Visitors from other provinces have been known to mix their names up whenever they’re dressed equally fancy… “I’m Martin, he’s Lucien!”
a pile of marcien doodles bc SOMEONE’S GOTTA DRAW EM… and that someone is……… me, evidently!
Yes!!
Repost, because I drew Cicero too. Anyway, modern au teenagers.
Go for it. Draw my OC. If you want, I’ll even give you reference posts. Go to town on it.
You are welcome to draw my OC and surprise me with the result. Seriously. In fact, I encourage it. I will proudly display whatever it is you submit to me regarding my OC. There is a chance that I will squeal about it for several days.
Even if you feel you aren’t good at whatever artistic adventure it is you do, please feel free to submit it to me. I want to see what you have done.
