No, not confusing, I was just thinking how well written you are. concise. usually people on these sites have difficulty getting to the point, or maybe they don't know as much as they might believe :-) (sorry everyone else) lol. I'm glad I can have Lydia follow me when I get Calder as a house Carl... gives me options. Don't get me wrong, I was joking more than anything when I was giving Lydia a hard time, when it comes down to it I'm not so sure I could let her go after all we've been through together. And speaking of Lydia; I always thought if I clicked on the "I think we should part ways" option I would never see her again, but since you tell me she will simply go home then maybe I will now and then. Funny, the last time I asked her to "Wait here" (in the Breezehome) I arrived home a few days later and she was sitting in my room, not hers, with an ale in her hand and a glazed look in her eye. felt sorry for her. Not to mention that my old dog Meeko (whom I had also asked to Wait with Lydia) had given up on me and walked back to his old dead masters home. But that's ok, Viggie is a better dog. Actually I just learnt how to own any house using Console control (without even clicking on the jarl fellow to "set the stage"), but I'm not sure if I should as the last time I used console control to get back the gold I spent on the Windhelm home I felt bad somehow. I also think it might stuff the process of the game up in some way. Nevertheless, I don't have a problem using the console to furnish my homes better. feels only right that I can decorate my home the way I would like. just finished putting a smelter and forge out the side of Hjerim. very cool. I have a few more questions for you if you don't mind, but If I babble on too much just tell me: How do you feel about console control stuff? How do you propose I get a spouse and a child without Heartheart? Can I choose what the child looks like? (Prefer not to have a little lizard kid running around) Also: What level are you at? Do you play a guy or a girl? What's your characters name and race?
