lol remember when eivor was like "i will not be captive to another man's gaudy design. my destiny is mine to weave." and then she. proceeded to be captive to a man's idea of what she should be and did not, in fact, weave her own destiny because she was too busy following the old god in her head despite having previously expressed blatant disinterest (and that's putting it mildly) in doing so. and then after finally finding safety and comfort among her people after a lifetime of scrounging and clawing for every ounce of happiness she ever got she then proceeded to die alone on the opposite side of an ocean from everyone who ever loved her and who she loved in return.
#normal and not at all ooc!! nothing to see here!!!#are we all just being hit by The Rage at the same time? cause that's what it feels like lmao#hahaha girlbonding (gn)#i don't remember who it was but someone said something that i'm definitely about to misquote#about the way that this ending makes more sense for male eivor (havi) than canon eivor#like a man who decides to abandon everything in the pursuit of knowledge with his past self who was also a dude? yeah sure! whatever#still sucks!! but i can almost see it#but eivor spending the rest of her life obsessing over her past life in which she was a man? feels bad!!#and they could have done some really interesting stuff with exploring eivor's relationship with her gender (gnc king) but they didn't#this was not that. like it was very clearly not written with that intent#and eivor abandoning everyone she loves in service of havi's own ends denies eivor agency in a way that feels soooo fucking gross#and it reeks of 'man writes ending for a character arc that would make sense for a male character'#idek if i'm making sense but like once again#i never wanted or expected a perfectly happy ending for her but jesus christ i feel like not wanting her to end up alone was not a tall ask#ac valhalla#eivor varinsdottir#eivor varinsdóttir#ky posts text#ac.txt
