Another piece of my pride series, dedicated to a very wonderful and influential friend who I'll always see as a modern day shield maiden.

Protect all sisters. Protect all our siblings.

Just wanted to share some favorite tags I've come across, haha. Thank you my shield mates for liking this one, it's really personal to me.

I wasn't going to post this because it was just meant to be a quick dumb thing to get me out of my art block, but I spent way too much time on my one stupid joke to not post it here.

...anyway, the joke [ tinyurl(dot)com/livegayreact ] (which I super duper pinky gay promise is not malicious, but don't feel obliged to click if you don't wanna) only works on desktop 🫠 I guess I should have checked if the execution was correct before I put that much effort into it lmao 😭

the concert I was supposed to go to today got cancelled 😭

everything here closes at like, 8pm lmao so not much to do. it's a touristy area but I've been here plenty of times before, so not much is neeeeew 🫠

anyways, felt grubby for just sitting in the hotel room, which felt bad bc my outfit was really ✨cute✨ today imo

oh well, a doodle to commemorate today then

Replaying the beginning of the game for a bit of reference in some writing and making the absolute decision to go through this run-through the complete opposite way of how I'd normally play these games (goodie goodie, get the best ending possible) and now am making every selfish choice possible instead 😌

ya girl gonna be

  • wreaking havoc in Norway
  • England
  • Vinland
  • the map table
  • Randvi's bed
  • taking her rightful spoils
  • kissing her girl
  • punching her brother
  • and his stupid sidekick
  • kissing her girl
  • telling Dag to fuck off (but still giving him his axe 'cause come on, he has nothing to do with this lol)
  • tell her brother he's a shitty absent jarl that makes bad judgments
  • and most importantly: kissing her girl

honourable choices sure, but this time Eivor's here for one thing and that's to live her best life with her best girl in the best timeline

this drengr fucks 😤

Randivor AU where Eivor never leaves Heillboer after the attack and Styrbjorn never gained the influence that he did.

Bear with me, this one needs quite a bit of exposition, I think!

(omfg 6k words, I am SO sorry, I am putting it under a cut. I'M SORRY I posted this at 4:30am and I was definitely already more than half-asleep!!)

After the attack, Gunnar speaks up for the clan and is extremely disappointed at how little Styrbjorn’s forces were able to help in a small, nighttime raid. Sure, it was a surprise and they were in the middle of a feast; but it seemed like something a jarl of Styrbjorn’s supposed caliber could have easily fought back against. They are thankful for the help and remain allies, but the trust and the allegiance had been forever fractured.

Gunnar takes guardianship of Eivor and rallied what remained of the bear clan to rebuild their homes.

a girl goes on a little 2 week depressy episode and comes back to over 100+ porn bot follows???

are you kidding me???

can I at least get an achievement for when I eventually block all of them in one 3 hour session?

(the additional 2.5 hours is padding for when my adhd distracts me from the blocking)

tfw the lil' 2 week depressy episode was just a small preview of the [general brain fuckery] that would devour my attention

Just a slight hiccup tho. We dealin' with it and we're back! Finishing up a nice speedpaint of our favourite gwørls and might fuck around and see if any of my short writing wips fit enough to post with it 😌✨

Hi! So I'm terrible at reading the runic alphabet (which is very weird considering the names of Gothic letters are drawn from the names for runic ones but well there you go) and I had to go plug ᚱᛁᚠᛏᚢᛏᛁᛦ into a transliterator. I got "riftutiʀ" (which would also transliterate as "riftutiz" depending on how far back in the history of Old Norse you want to take Eivor's journey), and I've no idea what it means. If you don't mind explaining I am curious to know the answer. :) (I think I came across your blog looking at some sort of reblogged wlw stuff)

Ah, yeah, that one is less related to Valhalla and more a reference to some of my own background :)

The usage of the runes is phonetic, so the first translation is correct, but doesn't look like what it is at all. Since elder futhark is kind of much older proto-norse and not that widespread historically, I used the rules for younger futhark; though in reality, if I really wanted to be accurate, I should have used short twig since my particular reference would be 10th century Iceland, which would have been settled by folks from Norway (who afaik did use short twig). All of this is speculation though, so I'm probably wrong anyways 🤷‍♀️ I'm no expert at runes or languages lol, I just did my best with what I could research 😔

Anyway!

r • i/e • f/v • t/d • u/v/w/y/o/ø • t/d • i/e • ʀ

Noting again that it's phonetic, plus there are no repeated letters, the possessive "s" is implied rather than written out and you roll the last r, this is my best guess at writing out [Refsdóttir]. The most obvious reference is: Steinnun Refsdóttir - which is part of it! The full meaning to me involves some long family history which is another story and is rather personal, so I'll keep that to myself for now :)

But fun fact! This is one of the meanings in my shoulder tattoo!

Hope that helps. I cannot stress enough though that I am absolutely no expert at runes or languages. There's a high possibility this is inaccurate. I'm just a casual hobbyist that made an attempt at finding an accurate way of writing what I wanted to convey!

Heyyy

I wanted to let you know that your Airport Randvi × Eivor fanfic got me into reading fanfic on a regular basis and I am really greatfull for that. I wanted to get into reading fancis for so long now but I could never actually do it consistently so thanks! Btw your tattoos look stunnin!

Sorry if there are any spelling mistakes, I am from Germany.

Have a nice dayyy

Ah, omg? 🥹 This is so nice to hear, thank you for taking the time to send me a note!

First of all, please don't apologize for spelling mistakes! You've taken the effort to send this to me in a language that's not native to you, but I can't say the same for me since I don't really know German 😭

I'm so flattered that you got into reading fanfic because of my silly little au idea. There are so many wonderful authors in the Randivor fandom (and in fandoms beyond), it's a real, laborious craft that bring so much to others and sometimes actually changes lives! (I know plenty of people who primarily wrote fanfic, improved so much in writing, analysis, research, etc. and got hired professionally because of that 😊 Some of the most well known people in certain industries are fanfic writers!!)

I was having such a rough week (+ some days) and this made me feel infinitely better 😭😭😭 Thank you again!
