#svein knutsson

[jens-holland]

Wrote a thing inspired by Vikings Valhalla S3E7 when Knut gathers all his potential successors into one room! The tension is rife and the meta historical foreboding was insane.

Would you be willing to do a gifset of Svein Knutsson from Vikings: Valhalla? I love the scene where he isn’t using his knife properly (slashing, not thrusting) in 2x07 and when he begs Freydis for his life in 2x08, but I’d be happy with anything you’d make! Thanks!

anon, here you go: don't slash, thrust and reset.

Extended Macbeth Cast At The Grocery Store Part 3

Cnut: Buys haircare products, mints, a lot of things implies he’s getting laid.

Harold: Makes conversation with the cashier. Tells people to have a good day.

Svein: Does he speak? No one knows.

Harald Hardrada: Gets in a fight with Harold Godwinsson every time

Harthacnut: Mixes up the words, but you get the general idea. The look of relief on his face when someone understands what he’s trying to say happens not too often.

Gunhilda: Sometimes has to translate for Art. Mostly buys horse magazines and treats.

Edward: Tries to convince you his expired coupons are not expired. They are.

Alfred Aetheling: Trusts too easily. No one minds because he’s baby.

Maria: Refuses to make eye contact when buying her trashy viking romance novels.

Rognvald: Takes his puppy everywhere. Lets everyone pet the puppy. Anyone who wants to, is allowed. Except for Thorfinn.

Godwin: A total cheapskate. Even worse than Finlay. Committed credit fraud.

Osgod: He eats healthy and makes good life choices. Calls Edward out on his bullshit. Got banned for throwing Edward’s shitty coupons. Lets Torvi shop for herself.

Torvi: Buys what she wants. Does what she wants. She’s her own entity.

Sleepover! Okay, top five...things that you'd like to see in Season 2.

Ohhhh, this will be fun!

5. More Godwin scheming/machinations! (Maybe in the service of seducing a Danish princess... or a particular lady-in-waiting?) I want more eavesdropping, hiding behind tapestries, stabbings in dark staircases, late night betrayals... #godwinning 

4. A subplot involving the littlest baby Vikings (i.e. Harald Harefoot and Svein Knutsson). They are adorable and I want them to hang out with their dad more. 

3. Forkbeard and Yrsa? (C’mon, a girl can dream!)

2. Freydis raising some gigantic shieldmaiden army and destroying Olaf. Harald will be totally into this idea, plus they’ll get Leif in on it before he heads off to find Vinland. 

1. All the Emma and Canute domesticity! (First we start with the reunion sex, then the power couple dynamics, maybe a moment of Emma yelling at the earldormen and Canute looking on fondly, like “Yeah, that’s my wife!” And obviously, I need a bathtub scene like I need air to breathe.)

[send me a sleepover saturday ask!]
