athelstan sitting crisscross on the living room floor with gyda, reading to her before bedtime. she’s cuddled up to his side, watching him turn the pages of the fantasy novel they’re slowly making their way through. ragnar hears them from the other room and silently joins them, sitting to athelstan’s left, resting his head on his shoulder. gyda has her arm looped around athelstan’s, and before he knows it, both ragnar and gyda have fallen asleep on him.

Athelstan & the Lothbroks headcanons (s1 centered)
Athelstan rocks Gyda in his arms and sings lullabies in Old English when she cant sleep (Bjorn, who sleeps in the same room as her, pretends to be annoyed by it but secretly loves his songs. will never admit it though).
Weeks later after gathering enough courage Athelstan asks Lagertha to teach him lullabies in Old Norse. She laughs, and he mentally curses himself blushing up to his ears in embarrassment, but then she agrees and they spend evenings practicing together.
Gyda teaches him how to make flowers crowns, Lagertha how to braid hair and sew, Ragnar how to carve wood and fight and Bjorn… well Bjorn tests his patience quite a lot. He learns a lot from that, as well.
Him and Gyda go on walks and stop to stare at every pretty plant/insect while Athelstan whispers fun facts in her ear. Gyda doesn’t understand Latin and she knows that she certainly won’t remember most of the names he’s saying, but she always listens and waits for him to be done before starting to walk again.
He is slightly allergic to cherries, but Lagertha loves them, so every time she seems sad he walks to the market in Kattegat and gets a bunch, washes them carefully, and waits until shes not so caught up in work to bring her a little bowl of her favorite fruit and cheese (His neck and hands are going to be itchy for the next couple of days, but he tells himself that the woman’s soft smile makes it worth it).
One day Ragnar accidentally cuts him badly during training, which lead to Athelstan biting down on cloth so hard he feels his skull crack as Lagertha cleans his wound with fire and salt. Ragnar is also there, but he doesnt do much other than wipe the sweat off his face and tell him how cool that scar is going to look once healed.
Ragnar likes to tease him by calling him by many names, but if there was one which annoyed Athelstan was “little goat”. He didnt get it at first, thinking he was just insulting him, until Ragnar explained that: “You remind me of a goat, yes. Goats look dumb and weak, but they hide great intelligence and courage behind their silly round eyes”. Athelstan didnt know whether to feel even more insulted or flattered.
Lagertha and Ragnar realized that he has nightmares often pretty soon as, since the first days he arrived at the farm, they could hear him toss and turn and grunt and even cry in his sleep every other night. Sometimes Gyda hears him too and wakes him up gently, offering comfort, but when it gets really bad Ragnar picks him up in his arms and carries him to their bed. Most of the times he manages to sleep the rest of the night peacefully.

I think Gyda is an underrated character. I wish she was alive. I think he and Athelstan would be close friends((

#MASALLADELDESTINO | FANFIC EDIT| ELIN, EL MENSAJE DE LOS DIOSES
Cuando llegó el nacimiento de la última hija de Bjorn y Elizabeth, la madre se encontraba débil y la pequeña Elin había nacido pequeña y débil..algunos decían que no sobreviviría.
Fue cuando llegó el séptimo día en el que Lagertha había expresado su deseo de retomar Kattegat, que vio a la pequeña ..se preguntó a sí misma si aquello era una señal de Los Dioses.

Vikings + modern food
A/N: first of all, I am SO honored to be ur first choice for your first request.
Second of all, disclaimer, I do not hate ppl with lactose intolerance, it’s just very funny to me when my brother knowingly consumes sth with excessive amounts of milk and then sprints to the toilet five minutes after finishing his food
Third of all, this was so fun to write and also i've been hoarding this imagine like some goblin creature bc i was so excited to post it. had to do it early after reading heart of winter (we need more bragi)
Tagged: @alicedopey, @bragisrunes (message/comment if you want to be added to any taglist)
Masterlist | based on this request | requests are OPEN!
Here are some foods I think you could achieve in 800 AD in Kattegat:
Pizza, if there are tomatoes from the Mediterranean
Italian noodles (I think you could defo manage Alfredo sauce and chicken, and noodles are just flour + water + egg maybe)
Some steak with sauteed onions and all that other good shii
Maybe, possibly, if the trade gods are feeling generous, soup dumplings and other Chinese foods (the biggest problem here would be the spices and the rice, since a lot of Chinese food has pretty simple ingredients)
Sashimi
Tuscan salmon (again the Mediterranean ppl have to pull up with them tomatoes)
Ice cream if it’s snowing for long enough and you have Tupperware to bury your fruits with you
Hummus if the middle eastern ppl pull up to Kattegat with Tahini and chickpeas
Things you could definitely not achieve (I am saying this having done 0 research):
Smoothies (blender)
Choco/vanilla ice cream
Anything vanilla/chocolate flavored
Sushi (nori + rice)
Several tier cakes
Anything involving huge (or any) amounts of refined sugar, food coloring or artificial flavours
Anything that has to be tempered or cooled down at an exact temperature
Anything that requires an airfryer, thermomix or other fancy cooking utensils I can’t afford  (rn)
Anything fried (how temperature? How so much oil? Maybe if u go to the blacksmith ig)
Mexican food (cries in guacamole and fajitas)
Ragnar
Very suspicious but tries it
You made Linguine Alfredo for the whole fam (Ragnar+Lagertha+Bjorn+Gyda+Athelstan)
Is lactose intolerant
Major L lol
Bjorn laughs when he comes back after one hour of shitting
Lagertha
Appreciates the Alfredo
Does not appreciate shitting husband
When Ragnar declares that it’s worth the risk
She declares the toilet (i think? maybe a hole in the ground?) is worth cleaning
Regardless, she asks you to teach her how to make pasta
Makes very good viking pasta afterwards
Bjorn (as a child bc I stanned him back then :’) )
Stans you for making his dad violently shit
Also stans pasta alfredo
Asks you to cook more, and promises to set the table for you
When your making spaghetti Bolognese, he hands you cream and asks you to sneak it in
You almost do
Gyda
She’s shyer about talking to you, but asks you to make more modern foods
Will help you get the ingredients and cook
If you use a fish she caught for cooking, she’ll cry with happiness
Is the most capable in making modern foods
Fascinated by ice cream
Makes Bjorn taste test everything she cooks before serving
He does it under one condition: trigger Ragnar’s lactose intolerance
Athelstan
Also very skeptical
Loves stuff that’s a fusion between modern and old
Suspicious of your cooking after the Alfredo-incident
He would love Tuscan salmon though
And soup dumplings
Why? It’s a form of bread + soup + warm. That’s why.
tagging @demon-of-the-ancient-world here for obvious reasons
Aslaug
Big fan of Chinese food
She tried modern food to prove to Ragnar that she would not loose control over her bowels bc of a large amount of cream
When she finds out about chopsticks it’s over for you
She eats everything with chopsticks
Thinks it’s more elegant than anything else
Defo a utensils gal
Ubbe
Grew up with the infamous story of the Alfredo incident (we’re going with that timeline in his case too, but not for the other characters)
Regardless, he’s ready to sacrifice his dignity to try something new
Very not lactose intolerant, and rubs it in Ragnar’s face
Loves a medium raw steak
Asks you to cook for him, but you’ll be able to teach him instead
Hvitserk
You give him pizza as a surprise
Looses his shit (not like Ragnar, in a more metaphorical sense here)
Making bread with toppings and baking it and eating it warm? Genius, why didn’t he think of that.
I just know he would gobble up that spicy salami pizza
Is okay with simpler toppings too
Loves everything you make for him, creates scary fusions
Sigurd
Skeptical. Extremely
He likes bean stew and boiled chicken
But not for long
Sucker for spicy foods
Also likes dumplings a lot
Will take them with him in the steamer for a picknick date
Ivar
Can absolutely NOT eat spicy food
Which Sigurd so laughs about
Eats slightly seasoned curry while tears are streaming down his face (manly tears)
Does not take milk to numb it down
You know those wontons with the spicy sauce that are hella good?
Yeah, he loves them without the sauce.
Clocks Sigurd in the jaw when he pours the sauce over Ivar’s not spicy ones
Heahmund
Idk if this is my hc or just personal distaste for this man and his weird ass voice showing through
Cannot handle spicy food (more homoerotic bonding ground for him and ivar yay!)
Does not like modern food (loser)
Secretly is lactose intolerant
Would probably die from a whiff of peanuts
Sticks to boiled chicken and beans (no salt!!!)
Alfred
Didn’t he go to the Vatican or something?
Got a taste for them Italian dishes
Idk if they already had pasta but that’s not the point
Alfred is a man of the world (at least at the dinner table)
Eats everything and anything you make
Yes, he sends hvitserk on a diplomatic mission to find new food
But only bc hvitserk begged him
Would shake his ass in front of his entire court for the mysterious loaded nachos you’ve described to him
Judith
Supports everything Alfred does
Tries his food with him
Oh man, if Sigurd and Judith ever met, they would have a spice eating contest
It delights her to mix two seeds of pepper into the food and watch some lord have a nervous breakdown
Could eat ghost pepper raw
As long as it burns her mouth, it’s good
Knows about the Alfredo incident in said timeline and uses it as a political weapon against the Vikings

Not teen wolf
I'm watching vikings again for the 4th time, and I have to say I think it's odd when fanfics have Gyda alive and an adult, but they make her a warrior like her mother, like I understand, we never got to see her grow into an adult, but she was a sweet and gentle girl. If she had been able to grow and have a life, I think she would have been more like Helga.
This is my opinion I mean no hate
