Character Thoughts 02: Judith

Character Thoughts 02: Judith

Does anyone else hate everything the character Judith did on Vikings? Cheats on her husband, neglects her child, KILLS HER SON! I think it would of been more interesting if Hirst included actual history in his show. He should of given Aethelwulf a love story with Osburh and had children by her , and then have her tragically die in childbirth. Echbert needs an alliance with Northumbira  so he still has Aethewulf marry Judith.

I feel like it would of been more interesting if Alfred being illegitimate was kept a secret and Echbert found out and took advantage of it. 

Another way it could or gone was the historical route and have Judith marry her stepson, Aethelbald. That could bring drama to the show.

“ In 855, King Æthelwulf of Wessex made a pilgrimage to Rome with his youngest son Alfred, who was about six years old. On the way back, in 856, he stayed at the court of Charles the Bald. Back in July, on the way to Rome, Æthelwulf negotiated his marriage with Judith,...  Shortly after the death of Æthelwulf, the new king, Æthelbald, married his stepmother. By agreeing to this marriage, Judith may have tried to avoid the usual fate of dowagers - a nunnery “-wikipedia

- Then again I am a Christian so it could just be my bias against how Hirst wrote the show. Anyone’s thoughts?

I love that his sleeve caught on the door!

Yandere Nametag: Ivar

I: Ideals: What kind of future do they have in mind for/with their darling?

- Ruling Kattegat by his side as queen. As long as your by his side he truly doesn’t need anything else.

V:  Vice: What weakness can their darling exploit in order to escape?

- It is capable to get into his head and convince you truly love him and only him. It may take years, especially if you were kidnapped. He never felt normal and deserving of a normal relationship. If you manage to get through his wall, you’ll see a loving caring side of Ivar, but by that time would you really want to leave?

A: Affection. How do they show their love and affection? How intense would it get?

- At first it through soft looks and little gifts. He can’t articulate what you mean to him in the beginning. Even compliments come out wrong. Only when he thinks your asleep will he cling against your body kissing your forehead, and whisper sweet nothings in your ear. 

- As time goes by he’ll leave lingering touches on your body, compliment in front of others, and show you off. It’s a steady and constant affection, only getting bloody and intense when another man tries to get inbetween the two of you.

R:  Regret: Would they ever feel guilty about abducting their darling? Would they ever let their darling go?

- No. He’s so far gone in love, why on earth for he feel better for taking you away. Your better off with him. Your friends and family didn’t truly love and care for you like he does. Only he can provide the life you deserve.

- The only way your leaving him is in death. Letting you go is never an option.
