For life is quite absurd

@life-is-quite-absurd / life-is-quite-absurd.tumblr.com

This is a space for me to keep track of things that I enjoy so there is no real theme to this tumblr I'm afraid. Whichever fandom I'm currently floating around in (of which I have many), fitness, health and anything that amuses me can be found here.

Lord, I would like to understand why you brought my children to Winchester and why you saw fit to have them baptized. It was done to damn you. To inflict pain, possible. I try to make decisions rationally. However, taking you children was not a rational decision. It was thoughtless. It was selfish. They have been treated well. And you are not the best of fathers. I was not allowed to be their father. I'm banished.

I hate the way you talk to me And the way you cut your hair I hate the way you lead my fyrd I hate it when you swear I hate your big dumb Pagan hall And your heathenish blood feud I hate you so much that it makes me sick Like eating any food I hate the way you’re always right I hate it when you kill I hate it when you win my fights Even worse when you use a hill I hate the way I exiled you And lost your great shield wall But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.

I would never have given you up to Ubba. But the thought did cross your mind, Lord. Not once. The fact is I would like you to swear an oath on holy relics... a year's service. During which time you will help my warriors understand that the heathens are but men. And, in return and in time, you shall have your own reward... Uhtred of Bebbanburg. One year.

me shipping these two is like 95% memes and jokes, because they the god’s perfect idiots and making fun of them makes me happy. but i am actually quite fond of them, for better or for worse (it’s worse), and that’s why stuff like this exists

for those who need some comfort after the hurt: here you go, a modern!au where no one dies at fifty! you’re welcome and also i’m very sorry

Wow. Ok. So it's been like 6 months? And for a while there I honestly thought I would never come back to this.

But these two. Somehow after all this time, they still wrap me up. So, here's chapter 21, finally, of The King and The Lionheart. Please check it out, and enjoy!

“I am nothing to him, and he is nothing to me.”It had been a year since Beamfloat, and Uhtred had never wanted to see the king again. Fate, on the other hand, had another plan. Sequel to “Rumination”.

You can find the fic here.
