A quest to my heart

[oakensocks]

𝔬𝔫𝔠𝔢, further back in years than anyone alive could remember, there is a land that even time has forgotten, filled to the brim with magic and mystery both good and ill. This is where you make your home. Who you are in this kingdom - or many kingdoms - is as varied as the blades of grass that spread over this lush terrain. You could be a petulant princess, a delving dwarf, a highway man with more than a few secrets, a devoted knight, a mage of ancient spellcraft, or even an ageless elf. No matter your station, though, one thing is for certain: whatever life you lead, it's about to get a great deal more exciting. There is a war brewing, somehow, somewhere, and the peace of your homelands is at stake. You are the only one who can set things right and go on a quest to save everyone. Still, what is an adventure without an adventure of the heart? You are not alone, and you'll find that trying times can forge ironclad emotions. Of course, you'll find that the path of love is no easier here than anywhere else, be the person you admire an arranged fiancé you're not too fond of at first, a forbidden object of desire, a traveling companion, an enemy, a lifelong friend, an ally...or another species from you entirely. Yet, in any case, this is no time for romance, is it? Only moments can be stolen, and you must set aside your feelings for the greater good. In this time, in this place, will you get your happy ending, or will this story prove to be a much darker fantasy? Comment with your character, information, preferences, and any AU you might want to do with your character if they're not from an applicable setting. Reply to others. Thread with them.

Thranduil | The Hobbit - open to cross-fandoms (OTA)

[farrel]

Ageless elf and King of Kingdom of the Northern Greenwood. Looking mostly for romance that one way or another is forbidden.

[farrel]

A werewolf shape-shifter, definitely forbidden as she would be perceived as minion of darkness by most elves. [grins] Any dos and don'ts? Expectations for this pairing?

[farrel]

[How about meeting as strangers when he's venturing outside to a human settlements, maybe a village. He would be in the disguise of a man instead of elf. Maybe she worked in a tavern that he happen to visit and in the true fashion of medieval tradition, decided to have a little fun with a receptive female. One thing lead to another and what intended as a single visit turning into more as he found himself missing her.

Lol, crossposting with your latest edit. Up to you but I should say that if she's brought before him at the Halls as sort of captive then it is almost the same with my corner in The Love Hotel community]

[preciousbrat]

Likely to be the devoted knight. Could also be: a prince, some magical creature (up to you if good or evil - could work because of his canon)

Matthias | Spellforce AU

[runebound]

Most likely a devoted knight.

[ interested in au canon shenanigans/adventures/all the things? ]

[lakeman]

[ i'm hella rusty with bard, but sure! ]

[walksbeyond]

[ omg likewise. but i can toss out a starter, definitely. beforehand, is there any specific timeline or such you'd be most comfortable in? I was thinking maybe a few years after BoFA, with Bard's kingship more or less secure by now, and being exiled by Thrandy-the-Ass, Tauriel was unable to return to the Wood and sort of stuck around to help the LakeFolk acclimate to life on the land, etc, and things unfold from there? ]

Re: Peter Pevensie ♔ Narnia

[syrenity]

[I think we started a thread a long while ago if you'd like to give it another go? Or I have other fantasy type characters I could offer if you'd rather. Let me know!]

[magnificis]

[ We did! And yes, that was before life decided to eat me >< But definitely up for another go, absolutely! Feel free to PM me any other characters you're up for offering, I have a ton of muse myself and we might find another story to make =) ]

[syrenity]

[life is crazy like that sometimes, I know that feeling all too well. I'll try to build on their brief meeting from before, but let me know of I should change anything, or just feel to elaborate as you will.]

Syrena had first met Peter when a swimming accident had knocked him silly and the mermaid has swum quickly to his aid. There was a small island off the eastern coast of Cair Paravel that the High King liked to visit, and it just so happened that Syena made her home in the maters nearby. She'd often seen him from a distance, enjoying the solitude of the little isle, but they'd never spoken face to face until that day. Luckily, his injury had been a minor one, and y the time the wind and waves had died down, he'd recovered enough to swim back home, but the encounter had left an impression on Syrena for reasons that she could not readily define. All she knew was that she found herself looking forward to the time when they might meet again.

Though she had not immediately sought him out for fear of intruding upon his few, precious moments of respite, her curiosity eventually overcame her shyness, and--over the course of several more 'chance' meetings--she'd slowly begun building a rapport with Narnia's High King.

[theladylazarus]

[She could be a mysterious wandering warrior, a petulant princess, or a devoted knight.

Forbidden romance, companion, enemy, friend, allies, interspecies--all good!]

She's a warlord's daughter. Not by choice, of course. No one sane would willing side with their true parent's killer. Thanos didn't get as far as he has because he was a simple thug. He knew how to break her, her sister, and every other child he acquired. He knew how to bend the realm to his will. It will only be a matter of time before he conquers all of it.

That's a conversation for another day. Today she's securing a valuable prize, a rare jewel, for her captor. It's nothing he would kill for, but the money it will bring him will allow for more weapons to further his bloody campaign. She's not proud of it. There's really no choice in the matter. He'll kill her if she doesn't come back with so of course this time there is a rival for it. The man is good certainly. She doesn't think she would have noticed what he was up to if she weren't after it herself.

Gamora grits her teeth. She really doesn't like feeling that prick of fear when she's under the illusion of freedom. She wastes no time taking it out on Peter, grabbing his arm before he can get any closer to the jewel. She yanks him in close enough to whisper in his ear angrily, "Find a different prize, thief."

[aromantically]

He wasn't expecting anyone to be after him, which is the only reason she gets the jump on him!! He's in stealth mode, not offense. The way she hisses in his ear is scary, but also... a little hot. Shit. "Hey, I was here first," he whines, attempting to wrest the item from her grasp. She's not stronger than him, shut up! He can totally do this.

Using their close proximity to his advantage, Peter draws his side arm and presses it to her unprotected belly. "Leave this with me, little lady. I'll bring you back a consolation prize."

[amongfriends]

At first his attempts are simply annoying. Gamora is ready to swat him away and be done with all of this. Then he has to pull that. Gamora goes still. She honestly isn't sure she's angrier at him for doing that or herself for letting her guard down. There are some things she knows though. One: she's willing to gamble that he won't actually pull the trigger. Two: she is smarter than him. Three: he really shouldn't have called her a little lady.

She nods slowly, handing it over without any further delay. Once it's left her finger tips she does the pettiest thing she can think of while also giving her the opening she needs to get out of here with the jewel. "Help! Someone help me!" As she predicted everyone is turning to stare at them. It really does look like he's stealing the jewel and taking a woman hostage, doesn't it? All she has to do is wait for someone to play hero so she can get away with the jewel while they're arresting him.

There is of course two problems with this scenario: she really has no idea how crazy this man is or how badly any plan can go once he gets involved in it. There's not a chance in Hell this will go down the way she thinks it will. Live and learn, right?
