Re midwinter: I personally think such a festival would have more resonance in Rabat - being a more northerly country - and Vaskia, based around the coming lengthening of days. As for deity? Can't remember any being alluded to.
I bet a spring/fertility festival in Vaskia would be one long shag-a-thon around the coupling fire, or should that be fires? Maybe the Vaskian women raid the local villages in the mountainous regions for handsome/virial men, shag their brains out for the night and then return them the next day. If that were the case, I wonder how many village men would 'accidently' be in isolated locations during the run up to the festival to facilliate their own kidnapping.
As for comment fic: how about Torveld and Erasmus's 1st time.
I lol at the idea of casually "lost" chappies waiting for their regular spring shagathon. If only life was so much fun xx
No there has been no deity alluded to in either land and seems freece wants to stay away from those suggestions in the story or there is a mother of a reveal coming (well another one at least).
Why thank you - it's mostly lusiology who enables me in such things as you know, but I do adore that quote and that icon, which makes me think of YOUUUU
Now just had a thought - how did Jord earn that soubriquet? I'd love a ficlet of Aimeric (pre-slash) overhearing admiring talk of how much of a sack-captain Jord is and then getting all hot under the collar;)
In Akielos, I suspect a Saturnalia-type deal, where there'd be eating, drinking....*cough*also culturally sanctioned reversal of societal roles*cough*. In Rabat, though....I dunno.
Funny that you mention this now, since I had a silly idea for a fic from this line: "Well?" said Laurent when his uncle had left. The steady blue gaze was on him. "If you ask me to rescue a kitten from a tree, I'm going to refuse." It is such crack, so I might never finish/post, but anyone else want to try it? Goal is how Damen convinces Laurent to save said kitten.
Or else, Auguste and Laurent interaction? N-not that I want anything explicit, I just think siblings and hero-worshipping is adorable. @_@
I just finished rereading up-to-date, so I might want to try one of these...=D
I think you are right about Akielos - they seem to have a more malleable idea of fun times but Rabat? There's probably a whole book of etiquette on the appropriate use of whatever it is they do on special occasions. It's hard to think of them celebrating in any way that isn't elaborate, costly and time consuming.
I'd love Auguste/Laurent too :D and the idea of Damen convincing Laurent about the kitten ...oh go on, write it - it will be delicious!
