Embarrassing Crushes, Part Two

1/9/2015

0 Comments

 
Hey! I'm in the process of moving house!  For two weeks, you'll be subject to pre-written and scheduled posts.  They're likely to be short, as I'm pressed for time writing two weeks worth of blog posts out.  Please forgive me! I promise I still love you.

Good morning, Readers!

So, continuing on from yesterday, here's today's video game crush:

Argis the Bulwark, Skyrim

Okay, my obsession with Skyrim knows no bounds.

BUT LOOK AT HIM!

This warrants a second image:

This half-blind Nord is a powerful warrior and a dashing bisexual with a voice like velvet chocolate.

*mind drifts*

Ahem... Sorry what?  Uh... where was I?

Anyway, I note the bisexuality thing here, because I'm fairly certain he is a character that is open to marriage no matter the gender you're playing - correct me if I'm wrong, fellow players!  To be honest, I quite like that quality about him.  I also quite like his scars.  Even his gammy eye.  It means he's come through some shit.

He also has a bit of a temper, and doesn't often do as he's told.  He will not, for example, stay put if you're in danger, even if you make it a command.  Nope, the valiant idiot will unsheathe his weapon and go charging heedless into battle...

... Swoon!

Also, annoying.  GET OUT OF MY WAY YOU GORGEOUS FOOL I ALMOST HIT YOU WITH A FIREBALL!  THIS IS WHY YOU HAVE A GAMMY EYE!

There isn't really any depth in the Skyrim NPCs as there is with Joel from The Last of Us, but that's okay.  I don't need a lot of depth to justify this one.  In my head, he's a brave and violent warrior, but a very tender lover and attentive father.

And I'm a sucker for a man in armour.

*mind wanders*

So...  This half-blind Nord Housecarl is today's (embarrassing) video game crush.

Agree?  Disagree?  Leave your opinions below!
