    We have different memories of Mother. She doted on you, and she ignored me. She had eyes only for you and for Harbard. To me, she was cold and distant… I have very good reason not to feel so angry with Lagertha.—

    —Well, you and I, Ubbe, we jumped under the ice because of her. So I don’t quite agree that we should kill Lagertha because of it.

    Aslaug fucking loved her children

    Still ignored them in order to get pounded by some weirdo who told tall tales…

    honestly can people just fucking shut up with the aslaug bashing on my gifsets
