Skyrim Mom is your new favorite Twitter feed

Bethesda hasn't announced any plans to update Skyrim with running commentary, b𝔉ut if ever it did we can only hope it will em🅰ploy community manager Nick Breckon's 65-year-old mom for the job.

Recently, Breckon roped his mother into playing the open-world RPG, and began tweeting the highlights and quotes from her lavender-filled quest on his feed. The resul𓂃ts have been predictably delightful, generating such ins♏ights as:

)

On accepting rides from strangers: "I got in some guy's cart and thought, 'Shit, I don't kno🐠w where he's gonna take me! I had to get out; who knows where he was going.'" ()

On the benefits of collecting ingredients: "I keep collecting lavender. I thought, 'Well, lavender has a very calming effect, maybe I can use the lavender on sಞomebody.'&rdquo🥃; ()

Mrs. Breckon isn't your cliche, non-gaming mom. The lady knows how to play, she's just not as experienced as most Skyrim adventurers. Therein lies the beauty of Skyrim Mom; it offers a fresh, funny, and unjaded perspective that reminds seasoned gamers what it was like to “discover&rdquᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚo; a game back when we weren't numbed down by years and years of playing.

Or maybe we're just looking too much into it. Ei🐼ther way, this feed reminds us w♍e should really phone our moms.
