They Did Sigurd Dirty.

They did Sigurd dirty.

Character thing - Sigurd please if you don’t mind

i totally don’t! (actually thank you for giving me the oppertunity to talk about this boy)

favorite thing about them

sigurd is very different from his brothers in SO many regards. he is romantic, he plays the oud and he is apparently far more empathetic or at least capable of reading a person? like hvitserk and ubbe have stepped on ivar’s toes by accident. sigurd knew ivar’s insecurities. he didn’t step on ivar’s toes as much as he really took aim. and yeah that kind of means that you have to be able to think from the perspective of someone else. i do not believe that sigurd was right with the conclusions he drew, but that’s another story

least favorite thing about them

i do think sigurd is fairly capable of feeling situations, but he is a little too simplistic in his conclusions of them. which i think is a testament to his youth. he is also very idealistic. it’s hard for me to say that i really dislike that about him as a character because i think this actually creates tension and makes him interesting, but it would be the thing i would dislike as a person

favorite line

im fairly bad at remembering lines, but i think you know in general all he says to ivar is just very clear cut. this boy knew how to form the perfect sentences to piss ivar off and in that sense they are very beautiful.

brOTP favorite platonic relationship

this will be an unpopular opinion, but actually ivar and sigurd are very interesting because they mirror each other to some extend and then are very different in other regards. they both spoiled brats, far more so than ubbe and hvitserk, and at the same time they have really different. ivar adores his parents, sigurd resents both. they are both quite sensitive. i would not say they are good for each other, but they are interesting in regards to each other.

alternative, hvitserk and sigurd both carry the “i dislike my parents” - banner and  i think some sort of bonding must’ve happened there, even if not on screen.

OTP favorite romantic relationship

canon is pretty bleak, so let’s go to history. blaeja and sigurd is just a very good concept because it actually channels a lot of sigurd’s simplistic views, while also playing on his strengths. and i just for one would’ve loved to see that happen.

nOTP

nothing that is widly accepted or popular.

random headcanon

two things: sigurd loved his mother dearly and this is the very reason for his strong reaction and anger. he tries to tell himself that he hates her, but it doesn’t make it easier for him. he went also with the idea that his mother didn’t love him bc it was far easier to accept this than the idea that she loved him, but was just incapable of giving him the love he needed or wanted.

sigurd plays the oud because it’s something that no one else in his family does. he chose it specifically because it’s not associated with ragnar in anyway. it was his way of choosing his own path.

unpopular opinion

turning sigurd into this rage demon who hated ivar and just went against him for no reason is a very simple way of looking at a very complicated toxic family dynamic. the problem is not solved here by saying that ivar was right or that sigurd was right. aslaug should’ve separated them. it shouldn’t be normal for two brothers to just always fight each other and for one of them to get so angry as to try and attempt to kill the other. a lot of shit went down before we even got to see them as young adults and discussing who is in right or more problematic does not deal with the issue itself. sigurd should’ve gone with björn as well. he shouldn’t have been in the situation he was and this is one thing i actually blame aslaug for cause damn… why did she let it go so far?

song i associate with them

sad: The Ancestor - Darlingside

less sad: Up The Wolves - The Mountain Goats

favorite picture of them

i take “odin has just come up to me and looked me sternly in the eye as i realize that i really have to avenge my father i guess”

Great Writing!

🔥 + Bindings for Harald? 😌

The battle was hard-fought, hard-won, just not for King Harald’s men. They bring him in chains to have an audience with the queen who laid him low. He sits on hands and knees before the wooden throne, waiting to learn what will become of him and his fighters. Yours is a face Harald has not looked upon in many years, and he cannot hide his surprise when you sit before him —a lone queen widowed many years ago and a woman he once, no still, loved. You cannot let him go without punishment. It would risk the faith your people have in you as their ruler. But not all punishments need be carried out publicly. Free of his shackles, Harald’s kiss is just how you remember, fervent and desperate. His hands are rougher though, and there are more scars on his chest and arms than had been in the past. He lets you push him back to the bed and climb atop him, but the feel of something soft wrapping around his wrists, binding them so he cannot touch you. He has traded iron for silk, but this is a punishment he will happily endure.

[send me a 🔥 and a character name and/or prompt word and I’ll write a spicy headcanon]

Yandere Nametag: Ubbe

Unique: Would they do anything different from the classic yandere?

- He is willing to share you with others. If you want Torvi or Hvitserk to join, that no problem (as long as you love him the most. You’re allowed to be with family or friends as long as they do not interfere with your relationship.

Blood: How messy are they willing to get when it comes to their darling?

He will never hurt you (unless your into that). You are to be protected above all others!  he has no trouble killing any man that may (or may not)  pose a threat to you.

B:

Exposed: How much of their heart do they bare to their darling? How vulnerable are they when it comes to their darling?

He’s pretty much an open book. He goes to you to vent and express his worries. To him you are his soulmate, and don’t soulmates share everything?

Being Married to Harald Finehair Headcanons

-After you are married there is a huge celebration and Harald is as boisterous as ever, declaring that this is the most joyful he has ever been.

-Having the respect of everyone under Harald’s rule the minute you two are married.

-Harald’s kisses usually being joyful and wild, with him often smiling into the kiss. He holds your face in one hand and wraps his other arm around your body, pulling you tightly against his.

-Simply making eye contact with him from across the hall and knowing he wishes to have you by his side. As you make your way over to him he holds out his arm to place it over your shoulders once you are next to him.

-Him having you train with him so that he knows you can hold your own against any threat. 

-Him seeing you as someone strong enough and with great ability to lead. So, when he goes off raiding he puts his trust in you to watch over his kingdom while he is gone.

-Seeing him off at the docks when he goes raiding and making him promise to come home. He does, just before giving you a quick kiss and boarding his boat.

-When he returns from raiding you are the first person he greets on the dock. He pulls you quickly into his arms and pressing a hungry kiss to your lips before leaning his forehead against yours. Regardless of how the raid went seeing you brings a smile to his face.

-Him preferring for you to sleep with your head on his chest, as he wraps his arm around your shoulders. He lulls to sleep by softly running his hands over your arm.

-Harald pressing his forehead to yours, your hand on his cheek. He whispers to you telling you he loves you, telling you that you are his world.
