To strip or not to strip? That is the question.
To strip
There was nothing else for it. You were going to have take your clothes off by hand.
Wait? Is this vanilla or mo..dd..ed? Oh fuck! You hadn't even considered that possibility, until now. Was undressing even safe? (Dragon reigning down fire and death aside.) Your mind thinks back to all those old lover's lab mods you use to mess around with. What if this world was modded to have NPC's attack the moment you're naked? The endless possibilities keep you frozen in place, only to be thawed by the words of an impatient Hadvar.
"What's the hold up? We need to get out of her before that dragon destroys the barracks."
"Em, could you maybe...look the other way please?"
"Modest one, are we? Fine, but make it quick! We don't know how much time we have."
Well at least he's somewhat of a gentleman, but that doesn't help in the long run. No universal, one size fits all armours for you. The leather greaves barely sit on your hips; feels like the weight is constantly pulling them down. As for the leather tunic, no power in all of Tamriel is going get it over your fat tits (C.B.B.E mod confirmed). Of course, you remember now. In the games lore, imperial armour was made to order for new recruits in Solitude.
This was going to be a problem. Letting the girls roam free in game was one thing, but real life skyrim was going to be fucking freezing! No way you'd survive long out in the wilderness, half naked. Wait? Wasn't there a set of mages robes in the lower barracks?
"What's taking so...ah yes, should of known that might be a problem."
Son of a bitch! Who told him he could turn 'round? You quickly move to cover yourself, face burning hot with anger, embarrassment, confusion, all the feelings. Do you punch him or throw yourself at him? This is all new to you and your brain just can't process everything right now!
Ssshhhrrrriippp!
Hadvar does not break a sweat, pulling out his dagger, and in the time you have your mini freak out, he's already cut up a bed sheet for you to use as a wraparound.
"It's not stylish, but it should see you through till we find something better."
"Thanks," you try not to sound so sheepish as you accept the offering.
"Come on, this way! We're lucky the dragon hasn't brought the whole place d..."
Right on cue, the sound of Alduin collapsing the hallway. Damn! Passage of time confirmed real.
The usual path ahead would lead right into the two Stormcloaks. Your first fight. Could you do this? You haven't the first clue how to use any of your abilities; hell you've never swung a real sword in your life! Shit! You almost forgot the iron sword. Is it worth going back for it? In the game, this would all be scripted but now, you're not so sure.
