Random question, need some help

[SkyrimWife]

Hi,

My husband has been obsessing about the Skyrim release for months, so I'm trying to make tomorrow night's midnight release as special for him as possible. I'm making him a late night dinner including a cake shaped like a dragon, but I need something to write on the cake.

I really wanted it to be something that only fans of the game would know in order to surprise him, but since I know absolutely nothing about the game, I have no idea what that might be.

I was hoping that someone here might have some ideas of phrases or wording relating to the game that would make him laugh or smile - or at least be impressed that I knew!

Thanks in advance for your help, and have fun tomorrow night!

What a spoiled and lucky man! You could say something like "Happy Adventuring Dovahkiin!"

 

[Cyberote]

Ooh! I know! Put "FUS RO DAH!" on it. I bet he'll get a kick out of it! Your husband is a lucky man

Personally I would write "FUS RO DAH." This is the dragon shout that stuns your opponent, and since that's what you want to do to your husband, I think it fits.

 

[SkyrimWife]

Oh my goodness, I have no idea what these mean, but they sound like they'd work perfectly for what I need. What would I be saying? And would they work together? If I have room, would it make sense to include both "Happy Adventuring Dovahkiin" and "Fus Ro Dah" together? (I'm so sorry I'm so dense - I seriously know NOTHING about these games!).

Thank you so much for the help!

Perfect! This is exactly the kind of idea I was looking for you. You guys are awesome - thank you so much!

You should blindfold him and lead him into the kitchen, sit him down in a chair, put the cake on the table and whenever you go to take the blindfold off, shout "FUS RO DAH!" Oh and you should put X's where the dragon's eyes are to make it look like it's dead since you slay dragons in this game. It'll be funny. A dead dragon cake with "Fus Ro Dah!" on it. You should definitely take a pic of it and show us before it gets devoured XD

That's an incredible idea. I'm guessing the pronunciation of that is just how it looks?

Yep pretty much, but if you want to check, here's a vid

He yells it at 1:08. Kinda like fooz roh dah

 

[SkyrimWife]

Too cool! He's going to have no clue at all how I found this out. Thanks again!

 

[Cyberote]

That's part of the big surprise! And you are very welcome. All I ask in exchange is a pic of this awesome dragon cake

Whoa, you're, like... one of the most awesomest wife I've ever read about... If I would suggest something similar to my wife, I would most likely to spend my next night sleeping on a balcony.

Vimalamitra is a cool thing to write on a cake! Just kidding...

If you're in a uber mode, you can also try find whether this FUS ROH DAH can be found written in dragon runes. What people have written here are actually quite good; I can't add anything more to this discussion. Best of luck with your hubby!

You might as well come back here tomorrow night, it seems like your hubby will be other wise busy on his sugar high getting his Skyrim fix.

Hahaha! Well, if my hubby's Xbox controller signal would reach to the balcony, sleeping out there wouldn't be punishment for him after tomorrow night.

And if THIS is what I'm going to have to decipher to get runic with the message, he's going to have to deal with English translations!

Oh yes. I'm prepared to be a Skyrim widow for awhile, so I'll have plenty of time to come back tomorrow! Hope you all have a blast playing too!

Hahaha don't spoil him too much or he might get used to it and expect this with every game.

0_0 Your husband is lucky to have an awesome wife like you.

You might want to set up some rules for him on having an ingame wife.
