Context: Orcs and humans have been at war for as long as you can remember. So, when you met an Orc as a child and saved his life, you were pretty surprised that you wound up having feelings for him, and vice versa. Before he left to try and convince his clan to give peace a chance, he promised himself to you with a set of magic rings. It's been ten years... and he's finally returned.

Setting: A human village/Orin's tent

[Scene opens in a human village - fantasy scape]

[SFX: A violent invasion]

[For a few minutes, you are surrounded by chaos: Orc warriors shouting, humans screaming, and homes collapsing into small mountains of fire]

[Note: Feel feel to stretch this on as long as you feel necessary]

[O] “Hold! I see no more movement… Fan out and check the area.”

[SFX: The Orcs searching: wood being overturned/ a few unfortunate humans being killed]

[You are lying under a good amount of rubble, trying your best to avoid detection, when some of the wood atop you gets violently shoved aside]

[SFX: Wood being shoved aside]

[L] “Here’s one, Chieftain! Pinned under the wood here! Sniveling little weakling, haha!”

[O] “Stand down… I’ll finish the raid here.”

[The Chieftain, you presume, walks through the crowd and draws his blade]

[SFX: A blade being drawn]

[O] “Die with dignity, human.”

[Pause…]

[He raises the blade and you brace, prepared for your death. Then, for some reason, he pauses]

[O] “...I… I can’t swing…”

[L] “Why? It’s just some cowering human.”

[P-Pause…?]

[[O] pauses, confused]

[O] “How do you know my name, human?! Who am I to you?!”

[P-Pause…]

[The Orcs murmur among themselves, curious]

[L] “Theys lying! No human would ever have an Orc blood debt owed to them! You only gets that if you save our life!”

[...]

[The Chieftain palms his face and swears, grumbling under his breath]

[O] “They’re right ...I owe them a blood debt.”

[The Orcs murmur among themselves in confusion]

[O] “...When I wandered off the path as a child, I fell and hit my head. This human found me and nursed me back to health. They have no family. Last of their bloodline… They saved me and, as an Orc of the Auril Clan, I gave my word that I owed them a debt of blood.”

[L] “...Humans don’t help Orcs. That can’t be right. You must be misremembering cause you hit your head!”

[Orin looks away, a faint blush on his cheeks. So he does remember]

[O] “...I’m remembering correctly. Not this human, that is an order. Understood?”

[The other Orcs groan in disappointment and Orin himself offers a hand to you. You tentatively take it and rise to your feet]

[O] “They will be with me, in my tent, until I’m sure you can actually come to terms with having a human about. And, listen to me when I say this: if ANYONE lays a hand on them, you will have two seconds to grab your weapon before I drag you into the ring of combat. Do you understand me?!”

[The Orcs murmur in flat agreement and march on. You march with them, until you reach their camp, and Orin takes you aside]

[SFX: Them marching for VA’s preference - general fantasy camp ambiance on return]

[Pause…]

[O] “Shh. With me.”

[He takes you to his tent and the crackling fire is welcome]

[. . .]

[SFX: The fire crackling/Orin moving closer]

[His breath is in your ear before you realize, arms around your waist, and voice so much softer]

[O] “...You’re shivering. Here, I can hold you by the fire… My arms are around your waist, you can rest…”

[Pause…?]

[O] “You’re still wearing my ring… It’s been over a decade since I had to leave you… If you’d stopped loving me, strayed or passed, it would have come off…”

[...]

[O, sincere] “...I’m sorry. The person in charge of your village had taken some of our young as slaves. I didn’t want to decimate it, but… I was outvoted. I can’t go against my own people too often, otherwise they’ll have me stripped of my title and killed, and if I’m dead… There’s nothing to protect you from their wrath…”

[He rests his forehead to the back of your skull, voice shaky]

[O] “Thank the deep ones that I found you first… I’ve been trying for so long to find you again…”

[...Pause…]

[He lets out a melancholy sigh]

[O] “...No. We still can’t openly be together, here… But, look. My ring.”

[He shows you his left hand. It’s still there, somewhat faded but lovingly polished]

[...]

[O] “...I’ve never stopped loving you. I’ve never strayed. I know, you have every right to be furious with me… I’ve done so much wrong to try and make a little bit of right… I’ve just missed your touch, your laugh, your smile…”

[He shakes his head, exhausted]

[O] “...I know. If you give up on me, I understand… For right now, I need you to trust me once more. My people may never accept you, so I need to take you somewhere safe.”

[...Pause?]

[O] “What happens when I drop you off? Ah… I will have to go back to leading my clan…”

[...]

[He seems to break against you, voice laden in pain]

[O] “I know… If you give up on me… I understand. I promised you a life that I’ve utterly failed at providing… All I can do, now, is try to give you a better one where you’re safe from people like me.”

[...]

[O] “...You’re still incredibly sexy.”

[SFX: A gentle arm tap to a big Orc boi]

[He snorts, smiling at last]

[O] “I haven’t seen you in ten years! I’m, also, realizing that I’ve been sending some pretty lewd letters to the wrong address for some time now…”

[Pause <3]

[O] “...Well, I’m glad Mrs. Gertrude thought she had a young, handsome secret admirer before she passed. Ugghhh, I seduced an old Elven granny… She was a THOUSAND!!”

[Pause <3]

[He chuckles again, easing with his arms around you]

[O] “Good on Yurik for using it to make a move. Still a squirrely little liar, even in his eighties…”

[Pause?]

[He turns red… as best an Orc can]

[O] “W-What was in the letters? Nothing! Just some… d-dreams I’d had about us… That’s all!”

[Pause~]

[He smiles but it's still a touch sad]

[O] “...Maybe I can show you, someday, yeah… For right now, just you talking to me is… so damned nice.”

[...]

[O] “...I will protect you. I promise.”

[His lips just about contact your nape before he seems to rethink and pull away. Another small pain on a stack of millions, but… at least he’s here]

[SFX: Fade out on the fire crackling and any commotion from outside]

[To be continued?]
