@sihtrik !
–––– 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐀𝐍 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐖𝐄𝐋𝐋 𝐈𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐘. one’s that had been craved in the pendant which seemed heavier on days such as this. awaiting the return of their spies – 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘮𝘢𝘯’𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 – kept his worries high, and without a doubt annoying to those within his company. though, he doubted many would judge him too harshly. for it had been over a month ( 𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝 𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙙𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙪𝙘𝙝 𝙖 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙤𝙧 𝙜𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙧𝙘𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙤𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 ) since uhtred sent them out to spy on villages to the north.
a current company whom, while were gentle in their judgment, 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙘𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙡𝙮 only tossed looks of either aggravation or understanding his way by now. neither of which caught the warrior’s attention. nor anything until he saw 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 breaking free of the tree line. ❛ 𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘢̀𝘪𝘨𝘩. ❜ the words escaped on an exhale he’d not known to be holding in as they all watched their approach. it took every last ounce of his control, and even a steady hand belonging to his lord resting firmly on his shoulder to keep him running – from meeting sihtric half way.
…. and yet, none of that mattered the moment the dane came within mere paces of the irishman. ❛ 𝘴𝘪𝘩𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤, 𝘭𝘶𝘢𝘪𝘥𝘩 𝘮𝘰 𝘤𝘩𝘦̀𝘪𝘭𝘦…..❜ strong arms laced themselves tightly around sihtric’s waist without warning beyond his words, and lifting him surprisingly gently.
it’s not easy to be away from things for so long -- to pretend to be someone who you aren’t for so long . he’s always been the sort to keep things to himself , so it’s not hard to fade in and out of a reality like someone who was never there to begin with . but when one has forged a life of whatever sorts it’s so much harder . because as the days pass and he sits with people he does not know and pretends to befriend people he does not like he finds the nights grow longer with want . that with each passing second he finds himself missing trusted company more . never ending thoughts would fill his mind and desire filled his heart . so it comes as no great surprise that once he’s free of his task and able to see the face of the one he loves again that a smile paints his face .
he might not know the words the man speaks but it is the gentleness of their mutterings and the warmth of the embrace that gives him no reason to ask . he knows beyond doubt that their nature is of a loving kind . and as his own arms fall around finan’s shoulders and his feet come away from the floor briefly he buries his face into the crook of finan’s neck . his words are mumbled against the skin that lies there . “ i missed you . “

What Is Your Lifetrap?
SUBJUGATION
You experience the world in terms of control. Other people in your life always seem to be more powerful than you. You feel that you must please them. Sacrifice yourself and submit to them. The only person you do not feel obliged to please is yourself. You feel trapped in your life. You are constantly meeting the needs of others with so much attentiveness that life loses its freedom. You are passive. A sculpture being shaped by others. Life happens to you. When your needs are constantly frustrated, anger is inevitable. At some level, you know you feel used or controlled. But you feel your needs do not count. It is hard for you to connect with what you really want or prefer in a situation. You feel overwhelmed and confused. It is easier for you to do what others want. You rationalize your tendency to please others. You tell yourself that it doesn’t really matter. It is rare for you to express your anger directly. It is far more common for you to take it out in a disguised fashion. You procrastinate, show up late, or neglect legitimate expectations that people have for you. It is difficult for others to know whether you are irritated or simply weak. Many conclude that since you act unstably, you are in need of more control and direction from them. In this way, you perpetuate your pattern of putting others in roles where they feel they must control you.

@fynan asked: “ i’ve got you, you’re safe. ”
𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐔𝐑𝐊𝐒 𝐀𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐂𝐎𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐑 . war threatens everything and everybody knows that--everybody who has lived through it, that is . he’s not afraid of death , or so he might claim . it’s just that he’d rather prefer to live . and for but the briefest of moments he thinks that death may claim him . brief , because fear lasts only for a moment before darkness finds him and he loses conciousness . 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄'𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐃𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌 . something that he doesn’t really remember by the time that he wakes . it’s just a blur of vision ; of love and loss and beauty and blood . he wakes suddenly like from a nightmare but pain prevents him from lifting his head , yet still finan is the first thing he sees -- hovering over him . it’s not unpleasant . it’s a welcome sight . but within his eyes he can see the desperation that lies there ; and that is the fear of losing someone . he knows because he has seen it before . and because he has felt it before .
he reaches out a hand slowly and carefully and uncertain of what it is that he is truly trying to claim with his grip . somewhere within the haze of confusion and the blur of the world around him he manages to find finan’s hand . 𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐒 𝐎𝐍 𝐀𝐒 𝐓𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐀𝐒 𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐍 . frankly there is not much strength there , but it is enough . ❝ that’s the nicest way i’ve heard someone say good morning . ❞

gedwimora:
Wildly, irrationally, he thinks the blood is Sihtric’s own despite all his years in battle to tell him obviously its not and he rushes over to his side, only finding hard whole muscle under his hand. The iron band clenched inside his chest falls away instantly leaving him light as air, the heat of Sihtric’s body burning into him through every layer where their bodies meet and he stays where he is, hand on his side, body pressed against his oathman’s– only his focus now is his face, sharp cheekbones and deep dark eyes. Sihtric is handsome– beautiful even– and striking.
He knows this already, he has eyes after all but it hits him again all the same now. They’re close enough to share breath, close enough to kiss if the urge struck them. He moves away– but only enough that he can clasp the back of the younger man’s neck. Sihtric has always been special and has only become more precious as the years have gone by– he was the first to truly swear loyalty, the first to place his fate completely in Uhtred’s hands even knowing that Uhtred could’ve killed him that second. Sihtric’s faith in his lord has been the basis of Uhtred’s own faith in himself many times, a solid pillar on which he finds himself leaning on frequently. He is precious to him and for now he is safe. Safe and alive, his breath mixing in hot bursts with Uhtred’s own. A chuckle bubbles up as he gives his waist a firm pat “ Do not scare me like that, I thought I would have to fight off valkyries to keep you for myself a while longer ! ”
because i fucking said i’d do gay stuff for sihtric and that WAS A THREAT // @sihtrik
𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐒 , 𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐄𝐒 , 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐁𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐒𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐘𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐋 . they’re things to be expected , and not necessarily things to be overly worried about . a little blood never really hurt anyone , and after combat he remains unscathed if a little dirtied . 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐓 𝐈𝐒 𝐀𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐁𝐄 . and quietly , minding his business , fixed to his own space despite the presence of company , he is in the process of setting his axe against the wall when he’s suddenly disturbed . the axe falls unceremoniously to the floor with a clatter and he finds himself staring into uhtred’s gaze , not for want to do so . 𝐇𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐘 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐋𝐄𝐃 . he’s very close , only to add to the fact that his hand rests intimitely against sihtric’s waist . 𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐒 𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐅 𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐓𝐄 𝐀𝐓 𝐀 𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐃𝐎 . lost for all word and all action , distracted by the body that is pressed against his own , all he is able to do is allow his gaze to flicker between uhtred’s two eyes .
and he notes that with uhtred’s spare hand wound by the back of his neck he’s very much at his mercy . he’d struggle to wriggle out of his grasp , maybe he could likely pull off a good jab to the gut , 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃𝐍'𝐓 . not ever . not even if his life depended on it ---- though that might be an overexaggeration . desperation calls for desperate measures , after all . and when uhtred laughs he can feel the warmth of his breath upon his face . words hit the air and it’s only after a moment of silence that he realises he has no idea what the other has said to him . 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐇𝐈𝐓𝐒 𝐇𝐈𝐌 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐀 𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐃 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐄 . he’s not even tried to move , not spoken , barely taken a breath , he must look like quite the dumbfounded fool . he stumbles over a word or two before he manages any form of response . anything that isn’t just staring . ❝ for yourself , my lord ? ❞

which flower are you ?
forget-me-not
Nostalgic and introverted, you overthink previous moments in time and sometimes may appear to be a bit in your own world. You are beautifully soft and quiet, speaking freely only around those who you feel most comfortable with. Because of this quiet nature, you are terrified of being left behind, forgotten by those you encounter. A bit melancholic by nature, you tend to forget your beauty, looking up to all of the sunflowers, roses, and cherry blossoms of the world. But my darling, you are what draws the eye down to the pavement and the first to be picked by those seeking comfort. Perk up and appreciate your worth my love

@fynan asked: finan smooches him 😘
𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐌𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐅𝐄𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐆 . it’s all desperate and yet relieving at the same time . hidden away behind the outcropping of a stable , beneath the shadow of a canopy , do they stand all tangled together . 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐋𝐈𝐌𝐁𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐒 . the air is cold but finan’s lips are warm like the most inviting of beverages or a roaring fire . his fingers are already laced through�� the gaps in the irishman’s armour to hold him close so that he might not pull away too early . 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐎𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐆𝐄𝐓 𝐌𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐒 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 . he wonders if it’s obvious how much he hungers for those moments and how hard it is to wait .
lips close over lips , a rough scrape of teeth on skin and then he’s gasping for air with a wide grin and something of a chuckle . 𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 , 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐆𝐀𝐙𝐄 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐒 𝐕𝐎𝐋𝐔𝐌𝐄𝐒 . there’s longing there , desire , and , if one stared hard enough and curiosly enough , one might even see love .

@gedwimora asked: “ i see you. i know you feel so invisible all the time, but you’re not. not to me. ” | from Uhtred
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐁𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐍𝐕𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐈𝐓 𝐊𝐄𝐄𝐏𝐒 𝐇𝐈𝐌 𝐒𝐀𝐅𝐄 . it always has done . to keep his head down , to stay quiet and unassuming , it’s a survival instinct more than anything else . 𝐈𝐅 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐘 𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐌 𝐘𝐎𝐔 . people don’t notice him and that’s fine . that’s how he likes it . but then he’s never really known many people he could trust , and it’s definitely changed his perspective on a few things .
he swallows . kind words are a hard thing to accept , sometimes , but a smile soon enough finds his features . 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐄𝐑𝐘 . uhtred no doubt knows that sihtric would follow him to the ends of the earth and back if he only asked . and if he doesn’t know then that only mean’s he’d have to try harder to prove it . ❝ thank you , my lord . ❞

@fynan asked: “ sometimes when you look at me it’s like…it’s like you’re staring straight past my flesh and into my soul. ”
𝐒𝐎 𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐒 . looks like any other man would , probably , although it’s hard to know what kind of face one wears without looking on into a mirror . he wonders if it makes finan uncomfortable . wonders if the all - seeing - eyes are maybe too observant . wonders if he likes to keep his secrets or if he wears his heart on his sleeve on purpose . 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐃 𝐓𝐎 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐀𝐍 𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐍 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 . especially not when it won’t stop opening its covers in front of you . he’s come to be quite a talent in silent observation . 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐀 𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐃 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 .
still , silence is as silence will be and for a moment it befalls him like a cloud covers a mountain . 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐋𝐘 . and in trying to figure out what to say he realises he hasn’t once stopped looking . so , a joke seems like a fine enough distraction . ❝ do you want me to look at your flesh instead ? ❞
