Clandestine and Naked in Val Royeaux – Dragon Age Fan-Fiction Erotic Romance Short Story

By binkyproductions

Note: Excerpt is SFW.

Lady Evelyne Trevelyan, leader of the Inquisition, marched towards Gaspard and his troops in the Arbor Wilds. Since their reunion at Skyhold, they had had several clandestine rendezvous; the Inquisition’s spymaster was most helpful in that regard.
        Even now, after months since their first night together, since becoming lovers, Evelyne made Gaspard’s heart flutter uncontrollably. He had to be careful to maintain his mask and play the game, more so when around her in public. He knew that once their affair was known, he would have to be even more careful to maintain composure in front of his people, but at least he would have her by his side. For now, however, he had to contend himself with meeting in secret whenever they could.
        Gaspard realised suddenly that after all this time of calling her his love, he had never told her that he loved her. A part of him wondered if it was too soon to make such declarations, but surely she felt the same.
        Gaspard smiled as she approached with her advisors. ‘Inquisitor Trevelyan, it is an honour to be marching upon Corypheus’s forces with you.’
        ‘The feeling is mutual, Emperor de Chalons,’ smiled Evelyne.
        Gaspard was careful to remain neutral in the face of the squeeze he felt in his stomach. Oh, how he wished she would tell him the same when he revealed to her his true love for her.
        ‘If you wouldn’t mind, Emperor de Chalons,’ began Leliana, ‘there is a matter I wished to discuss with you and the Inquisitor in private. May we borrow your tent?’
        ‘Certainly.’ Gaspard motioned forward and led the two ladies into his tent.
        Leliana immediately struck the tent’s flaps shut, positioning herself to face the entrance, hands clasped behind her back. She looked over her shoulder.
        ‘You may speak freely to each other, you have but a few moments. I will ensure no one enters this tent.’
        ‘Thank you, Leliana.’ Evelyne turned to Gaspard and wrapped her arms around him, kissing him tenderly.
        Gaspard relished in the sensation of her warm lips on his. It triggered a desire within him. He wished they could forgo the attack and lose themselves in each other right now, but he knew that was not possible. He would have to maintain his composure and remain patient.
        He placed his hands on her face. ‘Do be careful, Lady Inquisitor, ma jolie, my love.’
        ‘I will. Promise me to be careful as well,’ replied Evelyne.
        ‘I give you my word as a Chevalier that I will remain unharmed and I will be here to…congratulate you when you are done.’
        Evelyne beamed at him, making his heart skip several beats.
        They kissed some more and Evelyne pulled away as reluctantly as Gaspard did. She began to turn when Gaspard grabbed her arm, pulling her back to him. She had a puzzled look on her face. Gaspard realised that his brows were creased and he had lost all semblance of the mask he always wore as the Emperor of Orlais.
        He lifted his actual mask to rest atop his head so Evelyne could see his eyes completely. ‘I love you.’
        His gaze remained fixed on hers, knowing the intensity of his words would convey the verity in his heart.
        Evelyne opened her mouth to speak, then paused. Gaspard’s heart hammered away, the anticipation of her reply more frightening than when he ever came close to defeat or death in combat.
        Then, Evelyne smiled wide. ‘I love you too, Gaspard.’
        Gaspard’s heart whooped and he let out a sigh of relief, grinning. ‘Oh, my love, ma douce, Evelyne.’ He kissed her deeply, his tongue twining with hers, only wanting to celebrate now.

The Force in the Depths of Manaan (SWTOR Fanfic Photoshop Experiments)

By binkyproductions

Meditating on the Ocean Floor

When it came to working the story’s main image, using a screenshot as background was the simple part. I had to place in other parts of another screenshot here and there to give it some depth. I found an image of a Sith meditation sphere and altered it to suit my needs.

Maranna Is Watched

Maranna is an intriguing character who begins to take more shape as more stories develop. Here I placed her in one outfit and onto a background. I created a character for her in SWTOR. Her actual armour gear is more badass than this, and I can’t wait to unveil it for the next stories.

Maranna begins as a new secondary character who later becomes the primary villain. If you recall, she was the lover of the late Relsor and has a Force defect of absorption that causes an immunity to many Force abilities and makes her currently unable to use the Force herself, yet she is very Force-sensitive and trained as a Sith for a time.

Getting To the Bottom Of It

Talyc and Nriwe here are on Manaan, attempting to sell baskar as their ruse. Talyc is of course one of the main characters, Mandalorian, married to the here missing Fane, leader of Clan Kandera. Nriwe was once Talyc’s Second, is also a past concubine, but she is now married to Lian Kloh, the Guardian of the Crypt, and is the mother of the young Thera Kloh. She has her friend and clan leader’s back, always.

It was fun to place them onto this nice screenshot from my Manaan stronghold. Talyc, as usual, needs his armour re-colouring, and his head is actually not from SWTOR but from Dragon Age: Inquisition, and for both I had them do emotes to get their arms how I wanted. Aside from it being time-consuming, it was a fairly simple Photoshop job.

Fane awakens in the Sphere on Manaan, and as you know if you read the story, he has lost a good many years of memory here.

His head is from Dragon Age: Inquisition. It’s not a perfect angle. I did have trouble getting the little bit of his outfit to have the right perspective, but it does the job.

Knarf, now the Second of Clan Kandera, recently created in SWTOR, previously cosplayed by my husband, is growing his hair. I can’t wait to show-off the Mandalorian braids I’ve got for him. This was a simple placing of character on screenshot background with the usual soft light borders and colour balance adjustments that I do for all my images.

Lightning and Dark Side Energy

I had lots of fun with this one. I seem to always have fun with lightning. I mean, it is afterall my favourite Force ability. I’ve become quite adept in creating it in Photoshop. To get the pose right, I used a Mood Emote on my character in SWTOR and used a Gree toy that regenerates health to get this pose. Then I placed him on the background. Placing and colourig the lightning was fun. Then I wanted some of the lighnting’s colour to reflect on Storimbu. If you notice, there are two colours, a more purple on the sides up the arms, and more blue streaking forward towards him. I selected one of each and added an outer glow that I adjusted to the desired effect.

Storimbu tortured by Awgro on Nar Shaddaa (from Connections in the Force, Story 11, Star Wars Fan-Fiction by Celinka Serre)

This is from the scene when Awgro tortures Storimbu in many different ways, draining him and using lightning on him while the Miraluka is trapped in the Dark Side energy contraption. Hence the two colours of lightning, purple for the dark side energy contraption keeping him unable to move, and blue for the lightning coming from Awgro and Mar Dalkars.

Two Husbands Reunited

Originally, I had Fane in his original gear, because I had done this one a while back and wasn’t sure when I’d use it. However, on Manaan, he is in the outfit he wore at his wedding to Talyc, so I had to make the adjustment. The rest is pretty much the same as I always do for them with the colour of their armour and whatnot.

Fane and Talyc abut to kiss on Manaan (from Connections in the Force, Story 11, Star Wars Fan-Fiction by Celinka Serre)

And then they face Awgro. I wasn’t sure how I wanted Awgro in the scene, a side view or not, perhaps seeing him from behind, but I found it that much more dynamic and interesting to show his reflection in the transparisteel (window). I even flipped him so that the reflection shows him exactly how a reflection should.

Fane and Talyc face Awgro on Manaan (from Connections in the Force, Story 11, Star Wars Fan-Fiction by Celinka Serre)

Technically in the scene, Talyc has his vibroblade out and Fane blocks Awgro’s lightsaber with his own, but there is a moment of tenseness where Awgro uses to Force to send Fane crashing against the glass and Void comes in to give them a hand. The image does depict the tension well, however, and I am most proud of this one.

As usual, feedback is always welcome.

These images were created for my Star Wars The Old Republic Fan-fiction story, Connections in the Force, Story 11 in the Protectors of the Force series.

Grievesome Onanisn – Dragon Age Fan-Fiction Erotic Short Story

By binkyproductions

Note: Excerpt below is SFW

Loghain slowed his pace, his shoulders dropping, as he walked back to his room, alone, his heart heavy with sorrow.
        ‘Loghain!’
        Loghain stopped and sighed. ‘What now?’ he demanded monotonously.
        Maric caught up to him. ‘I just want to chat.’
        ‘And I don’t.’ Loghain resumed but Maric held him back by the arm. Loghain sighed gutturally.
        ‘Look, you’ve done a lot around here and I can see you could use some time away. Why don’t you return to Gwaren, I think it’ll do you some good.’
        ‘You trying to get rid of me, man?’
        ‘Loghain,’ Maric chided, ‘I’m trying to help you. I can see you’re…well, we’re all still grieving, but—’
        ‘Are we?’ Loghain turned to face Maric head-on. ‘Are we both still grieving? Because it seems you’ve moved on and I’m the only one who weeps at night for your betrothed because back when you didn’t want her, I loved her more than I could any woman for the rest of my life!’
        Maric blinked back tears. ‘Of course, I still grieve for her,’ he hissed a half-whisper.
        Loghain bowed his head. ‘I’m sorry.’
        Maric hesitated. ‘I just thought you might be happier if you went to Gwaren.’
        ‘Nothing will ever make me happy again, Maric, except serving the man I pledged myself to in trying to forget the women we both loved.’
        The two stood in silence for a while. ‘I’m sorry too,’ Maric said finally. ‘I’ll be happy for you to stay in Denerim if that’s what you want.’
        Loghain nodded and slowly resumed. ‘Good night, Maric.’
        ‘Good night, Loghain.’
        Maric turned and walked the other way.
        Loghain marched into his private chambre. He just needed some quiet. He had once again saved Maric, and what was his friend doing? Urging him to go home. But all Loghain wanted was to be in the place where the woman he truly loved had died.
        He shut the door to his room and leaned his hands on it. He let out a frustrated shout, punching the door. Leaning his head on it, he heaved and let out a loud sob, as tears streamed from his eyes.
        All he wanted was Rowan back, all he wanted was for Rowan to be alive. All he needed was Rowan.
        ‘Oh Rowan,’ he whispered. ‘You’re the only one I ever truly loved.’
        Steadying himself, he walked to the lounge and sat down. He swallowed, closing his eyes, his tears still spilling down his cheeks. He bowed his head. He remembered Rowan’s touch when she caressed him, the taste of her lips; none could satisfy him like she could.
        ‘What a fool I was,’ he growled. ‘What an idiot. I made a mistake. I should never have let you go.’
        He placed a hand to his eyes, weeping. ‘I miss you so much.’
        He placed his other hand on a pillow and squeezed, clenching his jaw, and a wail escaped him. All the anger and hurt, all the anguish of his loss he had suppressed, was now finally being released.
        His body tensed as he heaved, barely able to breathe. He felt like the air from his lungs would never fill again. He was sobbing uncontrollably. He needed to release it, he needed to release it all – now that he was finally allowing himself to feel it.
        And then he felt something else tense, as memories flooded him.

Connections in the Force Chapter Ten + Epilogue (Star Wars SWTOR Fan-Fiction)

By binkyproductions

Fane watched in dismay as the dreadnought fired. Then realised it was firing at Awgro’s ships. He looked at the others, puzzled.
            ‘The dreadnought’s hailing us,’ said Mrs. Holt.
            Fane walked to the station where Void stood as he took the incoming call. A familiar male Rattataki face appeared.
            ‘Fane! Lord Void. I’m glad to see you in one piece.’
            ‘Vax?’ Talyc walked up to the station.
            ‘Our sources told us there would be an attack at Manaan. I’m glad we got here in time to save your necks, again.’ Vax smiled.
            ‘Vax,’ said Fane, ‘we appreciate the assistance. I owe you once again for aiding me.’
            Vax waved a hand dismissively. ‘I brought some friends, given the alliance, it was an easy sway.’
            ‘Thank you!’ said Talyc.
            Vax seemed to hesitate. Fane could see the unease in his eyes. ‘I’m glad you’re alive, Fane.’
            ‘Yes, yes,’ said Lady Gofaylia, walking over to stand next to Vax, ‘we’ll take over from here. We heard you had many injured onboard and few medical supplies. Now get going, this victory is the Empire’s.’
            ‘We’ll keep you informed if we manage to capture Awgro,’ said Vax.
            They chimed out.
            ‘Well you heard him, hyperspace time, to the Crypt,’ said Nriwe. ‘And maybe we can heal the Sphere while we’re there.’
            Shadie nodded. ‘Awgro is likely going to get away, but we can let Lady Gofaylia take this one for us. We’ll owe her, but I rather that than becoming flotsam.’
            The ship lurched a final time, as starfighters still streaked laserfire at them, before the ship went into hyperspace.
            Brenum entered the coordinates for the Crypt.
            Knarf walked to Storimbu. ‘So are Vax’s sources…?’
            ‘I have Protectors everywhere,’ said Storimbu, a small smile curling on the edge of his mouth. ‘After recent events, I’m probably not welcome in Imperial Space much anymore, but Protectors are there. There are many even Shadie doesn’t know of, all awaiting my commands to know where to be next to protect the Force.’
            ‘Remind me never to get on your bad side,’ said Talyc.
            Storimbu chuckled. ‘I’m here to protect you, aren’t I?’

* * *


            Shadie let out a sigh of relief. She walked to Storimbu and sat next to him. He closed his datapad.
            ‘The others have secured my ship. It’s in good hands.’
            ‘That’s good to hear.’ Shadie smiled in sympathy. ‘Awgro really did a number on you, didn’t he?’
            ‘So Talyc tells me, word for word.’
            Shadie let out a small laugh. ‘I’m a Kandera.’ She sobered. ‘Thanks for helping us, I’m glad Awgro didn’t kill you after all.’
            ‘That’s what I keep telling him,’ said Kafter.
            ‘He wouldn’t have gotten a word from me regarding your whereabouts,’ said Storimbu. ‘I’m sorry if my associations caused you… What I mean to say is, I still feel responsible.’
            ‘You’re not to blame, Storimbu,’ Shadie reassured him. ‘You couldn’t have guessed Maranna’s actions.’
            ‘If you were so confidant Awgro was bluffing,’ said Nriwe, crossing her arms, ‘why couldn’t Mrs. Mother-of-the-son-of-our-enemy just zip it?’
            ‘Are we certain he was trying to get Storm to talk?’ asked Kafter. ‘Think about it.’
            ‘It’s one thing for him to suspect Maranna might have the information,’ said Talyc, ‘but trying to kill you to get her to talk? You’d have to be…’ He trailed off.
            Everyone looked at Storimbu.
            ‘But we’re not,’ Storimbu said carefully.
            ‘Ah, I’ve seen the way you two look at each other,’ said Drashdae.
            ‘I’ve merely been observing her from afar in order to protect her, and we’ve enjoyed chit-chats on occasion.’
            ‘More like admiring,’ said Kafter.
            Shadie raised her brows at Storimbu.
            ‘Fine, I’ve enjoyed her company, but I’ve always reminded myself that she is our enemy,’ Storimbu admitted.
            ‘Seems like you’re a bit more than that to her, though,’ said Shadie.
            ‘When we first met,’ said Storimbu, ‘I welcomed her to our faction, wanted her to join, and our paths crossed briefly. I was taken by her then, something in her Force aura, a great passion seeking to be expressed. But she seeks to be saved, and I can see how she would view me as she once viewed Relsor.’
            ‘And what about you?’ Shadie asked gently. ‘How do you view her?’
            ‘I refuse to explore the thoughts I once explored.’ Storimbu downcast his eyes.
            ‘You two obviously have history,’ said Nriwe.
            ‘She chose her faction when she joined the True Sith instead of the Followers of Kromus,’ said Storimbu. ‘I’d be a fool to think she wouldn’t discard the Protectors in the same manner. Besides, I’m dedicated to protecting the Force.’ He took a deep breath. ‘When Kromus died the second time, many of us took initiative, but it was me to whom the others looked for guidance, and over time, I became the new leader. I…we have found our new purpose; I will not let those who still view me as their leader down.’
            ‘You are not just viewed as any leader,’ said Shadie. ‘Perhaps you follow my cause, but you are the leader of the Protectors of the Force. I won’t take that title away from you.’
            ‘Then more of a reason to uphold it!’
            Shadie felt a pinch at her wound and she looked at the small gash on her hand.
            ‘I wish I could regenerate like Fane and Void can, this thing still stings. It’s annoying, but I’ve healed from worse wounds.’
            She noticed Void staring at her, eyes wide. He rushed towards her and took her hand abruptly.
            ‘What’s this?’
            ‘Uh, it’s just a small gash. It’s already healing, that’s how minor it is.’
            ‘When did this happen?’ asked Void, sounding frantic.
            ‘While we were escaping the Reformed Sith,’ said Shadie. ‘One of them had a vibroknife. Void, what’s the matter?’
            ‘This is not good.’
