A dumping ground for various fic prompts. Should any of these receive actual writing installments, they'll be deleted from here and reposted to the WIP Fic Post.
One of my greatest loves lies with seeing two opposing forces thrown into an Enemy Mine situation, and being forced to work together to achieve a common goal.
Suppose, for just a moment, that the Dragonborn hasn't expressly taken sides during the Civil War (s/he's more concerned with helping the Holds themselves and keeping Alduin from, yanno, murderizing everyone)... but at the same time, really enjoys pissing off the Thalmor.
This inevitably comes back to bite the Dragonborn in the ass, in the form of being captured by the Aldmeri Dominion. I dunno, maybe they wait for our hero to round a corner before hitting them over the head with a rock or something. Point being: damn, we're in a tight spot!
It doesn't take long for both the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloaks to get wind of this.
They are pissed.
I don't know which, if any, characters you'd want to involve in this- Rikke and Galmar, Ulfric and Tullius, Ralof and Hadvar... myeh. Or if you'd want to pair them up. Or have them both have feelings for the Dragonborn. Or have it be entirely gen. I leave it up to you. I'd just like to see some very, very, VERY grudging temporary alliances, and enthusiastic kicking down of Thalmor doors.
(Of course, I can easily see things devolving into some kind of horrible tug-of-war once they actually findthe Dragonborn. "MY national hero!" "Fuck you, I did all the work! Get your own!")
