For Morgana, heāll take it much better if Guen already told him she preferred women. Maybe not so well if sheās been acting lovey-dovey toward him for three years. For both? You assume Guen will survive Morganaās wrath long enough to tell himā¦
So thereās an option to tell Arthur? Iāve never seen it.
Then again thanks to actually liking Arthur, seeing it as part of her duties she agreed to with "I do,"and having the attitude that just because she isnāt attracted to him doesnāt mean he canāt get the job done, my Guen is hardly kicking him out of the marital bed.
So maybe an option to add āFYI, I prefer womenā somehow getting worked into polite conversation even if one is sleeping with Arthur.
Itās not like my Guen is keeping it a secret, sheās pretty much told everyone else.
Actually, now that I think about it, there ought to be conversations about that.
Morgana is his sister,Lance is his best friend, neither has an opinion on how to tell him, if she tells him, or wondering if sheās inclined to tell him? That seems unrealistic.
I believe there is an option to tell him Guen prefers women while still sleeping with him as part of her queenly duties to produce an heir.
I think itās only if youāve avoided sleeping with him to begin with though, but I canāt remember for certain. He brings up Guens reluctance as politely as he can and Guen can inform him itās because she prefers women. Then he asks if sheāll still be willing to try and produce an heir which she can agree to or not.
Iām not sure if thereās an option to tell him if Guen has slept with him right from the off however. Iāll have to play again and find out!
@stsword As @justme says, itās going to happen at the end of Book 2. I hope to give Guen a range of ways of breaking the news (or not).
BUT itās true that I donāt think Guen can currently tell Arthur sheās a lesbian or asexual, or just that she doesnāt want kids, or that she simply doesnāt want to have sex with him ever, unless she doesnāt have sex with him at first. Thatās on my list of edits for Book 1.
Lancelot just assumes she wonāt, because of course we protect Arthur by not telling him things like that. Morgana will actually bring it up in most cases (if sheās not enraged at the time, which can happen for more than one reason) once things have settled down at Camelot toward the end of Book 2 ā Iāve already written that part.
So I just managed to stumble upon this from some idle TVTropes browsing, and gave it a read. All in all, not too bad. Iām a bit of a sucker for Arthurian legends anyway. Interested to see how thisāll all end up going, though from a look at the FAQ, thatās going to be a whileā¦
I will admit, I have a hard time imagining Arthur, Lancelot or Morgana as anything but their Nasuverse incarnations anymore hahaha. I guess thatās mostly an issue for Arthur in this caseā¦
DAMN IT. Itās not my fault that youāre so annoyingly adorable that makes me want to keep up with your crap even tho Iām actually in love with your sister, Arthur.
Arthur: Hello, my lo- Guen: [peeks out from behind a chair] Close the door! Close the door! Arthur: OKā¦ [closes the door] Guen: Donāt just stand there! Help me barricade it! Arthur: Barricade it? Why? Morgana: GUENEVERE, YOU *****!!! WHERE ARE YOU?! Arthur: Morganaā¦? Guen, what did you do? Guen: I have no id- Morgana: I thought you loved me, but you slept with that pompous lech Lancelot?! HOW DARE YOU!!! Arthur: ā¦ Guen: [nervous laugh] I donāt know what sheās- Hey, what are you doing? Donāt open the door! Donāt open the- Arthur: [emotionless] Morgana, sheās over here. Guen: Noooooooo!!!
I canāt help but wonder how a romanced Morgana will respond to a genuinely loyal Guen. I mean, sheās used to her usual unhappy and lonely life. I imagine the relationship she could have with a loyal Guen will be a completely new and (possibly) wonderful experience for her.
@jeantown and by the way, Iām not sure if anyone asked this question before but I think I read somewhere here that thereās a possibility of Morgana going down a villainous path. If Morgana does take an evil route, is it possible for Guen to join her along that path?
Basically, yes. āEvilā Morgana (or maybe just a Morgana who has turned against Arthur) will side with Mordred in the final conflict, and Guen will also have the option of siding with Mordred, for a range of possible reasons.
@jeantown Argh, Iām so curious as to what Mordredās going to be doing with those powers of his that I think you called Capital E Evil. Especially because it would answer my age-old question of āWhat does Jean consider Capital E Evil?ā Because evil means something different to everyone, because I enjoy psychoanalyzing, and because you kind of play your cards close to the vest.
Iām so scared for my baby Guen and Arthur because she wants to have his babies and they are like in love with each other. Iām really really hoping that they both make it out alive and Arthur has both of his legs.
