TLK Alhtred log (Bottom! Alfred)
cw // slightly NSFW I think?
I’m rewatching tlk (AGAIN) and…their height difference is just so adorable I can’t…I can’t…
The Coronation
I was so excited to see how the coronation is described in the book and then felt a little bit disappointed by the fact that it’s actually a show original scene. Will we ever get a chance to know what exactly was in Uhtred’s mind when this scene happened?? Because, it’s like, WTF Uhtred why was your first thought when you left was to…hump???DID ALFRED FUCKING TURN YOU ON OR SOMETHING??????
Uhtred: You know what, I think I’m gay now
I would love that if every time they got laid Uhtred would leave his king only half naked (not pulling off the clothes) and just stopped undressing him because it reminded him the first day Alfred became his king
(But he wouldn’t tell Alfred any of the real reason why he didn’t pull off his clothes because…better not letting your boss know you have wet dreams of him since the very first day you met lol)
p.s. Each time I rewatch the show they (especially Alfred) just look even gayer, how could this happen…
Ok I’m done with ranting. This ship to me is like:
Me: I’m going to learn about the history of 9th century anglo-saxon kingdoms and old norse culture to get better understanding of this whole story and come up with some cool deep depth ideas with plots to draw
Still me with my pen: *drawing pwp*
Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions : ) I loved reading your answers. I do want to add other questions too! #37 and 38 what kind of artist do you see yourself as?
37. Draw a picture!
Okay! Sorry for not being able to draw a more detailed one, real life is consuming my leisure time lol. Please indulge me to give you some silly Alhtred chibis instead! Marsh arc the peak arc :))))
38. What kind of artist do you see yourself as?
Oh that’s a tough one, honestly I don’t know hahaha. I just draw whatever I find interesting and it’s good if anybody happens to come across my works and like them even :) I can say about what kind of artist I want to be I guess. Being a fandom artist is great, but I want to be not just a fandom artist, I hope that when I post a pic people don’t necessarily pause scrolling because of the fandom but because they simply find my works look great, even if they don’t know any of the characters nor the stories behind it, and that’s my goal for now :)
Again thanks for asking I really really appreciate it!!! <33

Some details for archaeology nerds (Here we go again AHA)
First of all the costume Alfred wears in this pic is BY NO MEANS historical accurate, but if we really want to be 100% accurate then to my knowledge there’s a high chance that Alfred wouldn’t be wearing dresses gowns at all (whoever decided to make Alfred wear those pretty cough dresses cough in the show I wish your family to prosper for all eternity YOU’RE A HERO), so instead I just chose to design whatever clothes I want and add some Anglo-Saxon elements in it :)
1. Alfred’s earrings
Took inspiration from the 7th century Anglo-Saxon/Frankish crystal ball, now in Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. Sadly I can’t find the exact size of this one but the official site says that it was used as a pendant/an amulet! Probably for pagan practices though, but it’s pretty, isn’t it? :D
2. Patterns on Alfred’s gown
Taken from the patterns on the Bewcastle Cross in Cumbria (which used to belong to Northumbria, built in around the 7th to early 8th century, aka the period Bede lived in.
3. The woven band
The pattern is taken from the Laceby band found in Laceby, Lincolnshire, dated to early 7th cnetury. It seems both Scandinavians and Anglo-Saxons enjoy wearing tablet woven bands? Saw this kind of things a lot in viking clothes reconstruction as well.
4. …Whatever this is
From fol. 34r in Book of Kells, completed in Ireland circa 800 AD. As you can see I got lazy during drawing this lol but the illustrations in the original manuscripts are really impressive!
Now I don’t know if this is a good news or not but I’ve still got like…six wips for alhtred in hand…god of arts DELIVER ME

Ðonne sorg ond slæð somod ætgædre earmne anhogan oft gebindað. þinceð him on mode þæt he his mondryhten clyppe ond cysse, ond on cneo lecge honda ond heafod, swa he hwilum ær in geardagum giefstolas breac. Then sorrow and sleep both together often tie up the wretched solitary one. He thinks in his mind that he embraces and kisses his lord, and on his knees lays his hands and his head, just as, at times, before, in days gone by, he enjoyed the gift-seat. — The Wanderer (l. 39-44)
