Trouble in Paradise

Post » Wed Dec 14, 2011 5:01 pm

Now, I've been married to my lovely husband (though his name escapese right now) for quite some time and I've noticed something very strange. he never sleeps. Ever. No matter what time of day I check, I can never seem to find him in asleep in bed. That is until one night I went downstairs in our house at solitude to find him sleeping in the little roll out bed on the cold floor D:

Is there anyway I can change this...seeing as it'd be nice to gain the perk from sleeping next to your lover.

Or.

If there's no way we can work it out, can someone please direct me to skyrims marriage counsiler because my husband (gah, what was his name?!) and I are clearly having some communication issues.

When did we fall out of love?! ::shock horror::

I think you should spend more time at home, and not let him drink all your stored Ale, Wine and Skooma so he doesn't pass out on the floor every time... maybe the sugar content of your sweet rolls play a role in him being awake so much.

First he needs to be banged hard in bed, repeatedly. He'll sleep like a baby from exhaustion.

I tried that with Lydia... now she can't sit down on her chair any more - she sits, gets up, sits again, gets up etc. non-stop -_-

I've tried talking to him about it but he's always so distant. Is this just a dead end?

Haha, good idea! Now, to actully get him IN the bed...although, I suppose we could bonk wherever and I could just drag him there later on?

Just a thought. If you are a woman, maybe he feels emasculated that his wife is the adventurer in the family. Yet there he is waiting at home so worried, and you get home after the sweetroll is cold and moldy.

Shame.

Hahaha, amazing.

I knew I should've snagged me one of them Nords. Those dark elves are all so full of icky feelings.

Though this theory would explain why when I asked him to cook me a home cooked meal he replied with a bitter;

'shouldn't I be asking such things of you?'

Abuse is emotional as well, guys. D:

He was an adventurer himself once, until he took an arrow to the knee.

You could just MAKE him sleep.

Before I married Brelyna I brought her to Proudspire Manor and had her wait upstairs. Used the convenient companion command system to point her toward my bed, and told her to "sleep."

Of course as a faithful companion she did as I asked, and stayed there until I told her otherwise.

It was kinda strange, but that's how you get things done with your companions/spouses in Skyrim I suppose. You gotta be authoritative and make it clear what you want! :chaos:

Clearly he's having an affair and doesn't need your 'company'. Find the little slapper he's been seeing and deal with her, dark Brotherhood style.

you get the bonus from just sleeping in your shared bed, your spouse doesn't have to be in it with you.

You know what. I think it's my housecarl. She's ALWAYS hanging around the house plus she's just too damn nice to me! She's hiding something!

I've never received it before. Do you have to sleep a certain amount of hours?

*sighs* Dear, my name is Keegan. And the reason I never sleep is because I'm worried about you. Ever since we've gotten this amazing game, you've lost all touch with reality. And I wasn't sleeping in a house "in solitude"...I was sleeping, in solitude, in our house...I used the sleeping bad because our bed is just not the same and feels so empty without you. You can change this by taking a break, and I'd very much like to work this problem out. I hope we haven't fallen out of love, and would like to break these communication barriers.

I miss you :(

Keegan? ...Keegan...

I can feel the distant memories tugging at the back of my head....

A man. His face unclear. Unknown.

But he is warm. Familiar.

And when he says my name I feel my heart leap forth like an arrow to the knee....

Arrow to the knee?

MUST PLAY MORE SKYRIIIIIIIIM!
