𝐕𝐈𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒 (𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟑) 𝐓𝐕 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐐𝐔𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒. all these sentences quotes are taken from all the seasons of the tv show, vikings. change pronouns, name and locations as you see fit. some of these might be suggestive, so beware.

Who needs a reason for betrayal? One must always think the worst Ragnar, even of your own kin. That way, you avoid too much disappointment in life.

I hope that some day our Gods can become friends.

What are you so afraid of? It's only death!

You couldn't kill me if you tried for a hundred years.

I wanted to step out of your shadow. You understand that, don't you?

Forgive me Floki. I know I should trust you but I need proof.

Yes, prove to me I can trust you. Prove to me you are on my side.

Kill someone. Someone who matters.

It is all the same with we women. We just give birth to the slaughtered.

The future is open. Trust in the gods. Live for each moment.

We have lost more knowledge than we ever had.

The space between life and death, that’s where we are the most alive.

I am old enough to know that you can never say for sure what someone else will do.

To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the sun. A time to love, and a time to hate. A time of war, and a time of peace.

My lord, battered or not, it would make no difference. You don’t own me father, nor does any man own me. Though encumbered everywhere; I am free.

I don’t want to be worshiped. I spent my life as a slave. Your words are ridiculous.

Pórunn. Forgive me for what I said. I don’t want other women; I want you. What do you want from me?

Power is always dangerous. It attracts the worst and corrupts the best.

Life is about deciding which bridges to cross and which to burn.

Everyone will always underestimate you. You must make them pay for it.

When you have power, you have enemies. And when you have enemies, you make sacrifices.

As long as my brother is still alive, he is not defeated.

Power is only given to those who are prepared to lower themselves to pick it up.

You have your father's eyes unfortunately.

We don't like those in our house to go hungry or thirsty. I am very curious about England. Does it have one king who rules over the whole country?

If any harm befalls my children, I will tear the lungs out of your body, priest.

Don't be too impatient to put yourself in danger.

Who are these barbarians, these savages? Why have they come to torment us?

But warriors don't show their heart, until the axe reveals it.

What is it you wish to ask the gods?

I see a harvest celebrated in blood. I see a trickster whose weapon cleaves you. I see a city made of marble. And a burning broiling ocean.

It is the way of the prophecy. Only to be understood when it has happened and it is too late to change it.

Not one of your prophecies do I understand.

No man should be such a fool as to trust these things.

He was proving that you don't need the title to be a leader.

Yes, good... He rules. And as a ruler, I have the last say. Me! Not you, not you and not you.

PROMPTS FROM THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE *  assorted dialogue from the 2013 film, adjust as necessary

if you die, and i live, i'd have nothing. nobody else that i care about.

it's different for you. your family needs you.

you have to live. for them.

nobody needs me.

i do. i need you.

how does that sound?

what if we set your backyard on fire?

he can't hurt me. there's no one left that i love.

remember who the real enemy is.

we got married... in secret.

we want our love to be eternal.

we've been luckier than most.

i just wanted to say that i didn't know [name]. i only spoke to him once.

he could have killed me, but instead he showed me mercy.

that's a debt i'll never be able to repay.

she wasn't just my ally. she was my friend.

i couldn't save her. i'm sorry.

you guys look amazing.

so what do you think, now that the whole world wants to sleep with you?

i wasn't talking to you.

will you unzip?

thanks. let's do it again sometime.

the way the whole "friend" thing works is you have to tell each other the deep stuff.

what's your favorite color?

now you've stepped over the line.

see, this is why no one lets you make the plans.

you have been our mission from the beginning.

the plan was always to get you out.

people are looking to you, [name].

you've given them an opportunity. they just have to be brave enough to take it.

we have seen a lot of tears here tonight.

you are angry. tell me why.

i'm getting totally screwed over here.

now you wanna kill me again.

nobody decent ever wins the games.

nobody ever wins the games. period. there are survivors. there's no winners.

love is weird.

i would love to borrow that outfit someday.

you look pretty terrifying in that get-up.

i outgrew them.

any secrets worth my time?

unfortunately, i think that's true.

i'm sorry you had to cancel your wedding.

i'm really not in the mood for a lecture.

you don't have to apologize to anybody, including me.

i hardly know anything about you except that you're stubborn and good with a bow.

there's more than that. you just don't want to tell me.

make him pay for it.

any last advice?

stay alive.

she's committed, i'll give her that.

you saved my life. you gave me a chance.

fear does not work as long as there is hope.

you were dead. your heart stopped.

how rude of them.

eyes bright, chins up, smiles on.

we're a team, aren't we?

i am truly sorry.

you both deserved so much better.

i don't want to be with anyone else in there. just you.

that's what i want.

no waving and smiling this time.

i want you to look straight ahead as if the audience and this whole event are beneath you.

that should be easy.

be careful. it's a force field up there.

i think these games are gonna be different.

i guess we're not holding hands anymore.

i don't care about any of them.

i'm here to drink.

you know and i know there's only one person walking out of here, and it's gonna be one of us.

i get to say goodbye.

they will kill us.

whatever game you think you're playing, those out there are not playing it with you.

i don't want you to get hurt.

so how do you like the party?

you could live a hundred lifetimes and never deserve that boy.

you don't want to shoot her.

how about i shoot both of you?

get them out of here.

@heireign asked: "I have walked through fire and come out with steel for bones."

Lilac   eyes   meet   those   so   alike   her   own.   Her   sister   eyes   share   her   own,   a   mother's   grief   and   the   weight   down   of   a   war.   Too   many   losses   on   both   sides   that   had   caused   family   ties   to   turn   sour   and   dull.   Can   they   even   call   each   other   sisters   when   they   shared   so   little   and   their   respective   families   had   hurt   one   another   so   deeply?   "Was   it   worth   it?"   She   repeats   words   she   had   once   spoke   to   Aemond   but   this   time,   there   is   a   sadness   upon   her   tone   as   she   speaks.

  The   taken   of   King's   Landing   had   been   forseen.   She   saw   it   greatly.   Helaena   had   a   chill   in   her   bones,   that   this   will   lead   to   more   tragedy,   as   the   death   of   the   dragons   became   a   reality.   "We   are   not   really   dragons.   We   are   not   immune   to   fire.   It   leaves   scars."   Unseen,   in   the   mind.   Nightmares,   tossing   and   turning   at   night,   the   sound   of   a   helpless   child   while   the   darkness   takes   her   away.

[shedreamfyre]

@worthyheir asked: [ a tournament ] our muses are attending, working as, or participating in a tourney, hosted by the crown or relative nobles.

Crowds   bother   her   plenty.   She   would   prefer   to   be   anywhere   but   in   that   balcony,   with   the   rest   of   the   family   gathered.   Tensions   seem   to   be   casted   down   toward   each   of   the   knight's   favorites   before   lilac   gaze   goes   back   toward   Jace,   and   a   shy   smile   appears   upon   her   lips.   She   had   made   favors   per   tradition,   but   she   doubted   she   would   be   asked   for   one.   But   her   mother   always   said   that   a   lady   needed   to   have   them,   so   she   did,   laced   in   Dreamfyre's   colors,   they   lay   casually   upon   her   lap.

  "Are   you   going   to   participate?"   She   asked   quietly   as   she   finally   approached.   "I   know   Prince   Daemon   said   he   might.   Of   course   he   would   ask   your   mother's   favor."   And   she   smiles   wider   at   that.   It   is   charming   in   a   way,   the   tradition,   and   she   does   fear   anyone   who   would   have   to   participate   against   her   uncle.   But   Jace   was   old   enough   and   she   figured,   he   would   participate.   "The   ladies   of   the   realm   seem   to   wish   you   do.   I   caught   the   Four   Storms   lurking   across   the   room."

“I'm so fucking in love with you, I don't even know what to do with myself anymore.”

"Why’d you want to have sex with me? To have a fucking adventure? What was I supposed to be? Your one-night-fucking stand?"

"You staked your claim on me, even before you realized I’d staked mine already."

"I want you like I’ve never wanted anything in life. You’re all I think about, dream about."

"You tie me up in knots. I want to play you a thousand different songs so you can get a clue of what... I feel inside me.”

jacaerys and heleana as a pseudo-romeo and juliet during the dance of dragons.

"One fire burns out another's burning, one pain is lessened by another's anguish."

[withouthonour]

the nervous urge to laugh bubbles up in his chest at her words of warning, but he stamps it down with a pained smile. he does not know what to say or how to reassure her further that he will be fine, as he does not know how to truly protect himself from all that is to come. he's never truly wanted the throne, never truly sought to undermine their father's wishes regarding rhaenyra's claim to it, taking it for himself was supposed to protect his family, protect his children, yet they've been harmed anyway, despite all he's done. will it ever be enough? will he ever do enough to prevent them from being hurt again?

another son? this babe will not replace the loss of jaehaerys, but there's a blossom of newfound hope in his chest with her words. maybe there's still a chance for him to do better, to protect helaena, jaehaera and this new babe better. to redeem himself for all the pain he has put them through in following mother and grandsire's ambitions for him. "we must safeguard him and jaehaera. upon my return, i will do everything i can to ensure their safety and your own."

he almost wishes to stay with the news she's presented to him, but he fears others' opinions of him if he were to turn back now. "with both vhagar and sunfyre on the battlefield, it will be a swift victory. i shall be back before you know it." he and aemond may fight, and buttheads when it comes to who should rule, but aegon cannot fathom aemond turning against him. perhaps it is a naive thought, but they are brothers through it all, aren't they?

[shedreamfyre]

Helaena   listens   to   Aegon’s   words,   her   heart   heavy   as   his   uncertainty   becomes   clear   despite   the   determined   tone   he   tries   to   muster.   She   watches   his   pained   smile,   sees   the   weight   of   it   all   pressing   down   on   him,   and   feels   the   familiar   ache   of   helplessness.   It   isn’t   just   for   him,   but   for   their   children,   for   what   has   already   been   lost,   and   what   might   yet   be   torn   from   them.   Jaehaerys—his   absence   lingers   like   a   shadow   over   everything,   and   she   knows   no   new   babe   will   fill   the   void   left   by   him.

As   Aegon   speaks   of   safeguarding   Jaehara   and   the   child   growing   inside   her,   Helaena   wants   to   believe   in   his   hope,   in   his   vow   to   protect   them.   Yet,   she   knows   the   world   outside   is   merciless,   indifferent   to   promises   made   in   moments   like   this.   She   wants   to   tell   him   that   no   one   can   truly   be   safe,   that   dragons   and   thrones   bring   only   blood   and   death,   but   she   can’t   bear   to   add   to   his   burden.   Instead,   she   looks   into   his   eyes,   searching   for   the   boy   she   once   knew,   the   boy   who   never   asked   for   the   throne,   who   only   wanted   to   be   free   of   it   all.

Her   gaze   shifts   down   to   her   hands,   fingers   intertwined   nervously   in   her   lap.   “I’m   afraid…   for   you,   for   Aemond.   For   what   you   may   become   to   one   another   if   this   war   drags   on.”

She   wants   to   say   more,   to   plead   with   him   to   stay,   to   tell   him   that   the   battlefield   is   not   where   they   will   find   peace,   but   she   knows   better   “Just   return   to   Jaehara,   she   always   favoured   you.”

𝕻𝖑𝖆𝖌𝖚𝖊𝖉   𝖜𝖎𝖙𝖍   𝖛𝖎𝖘𝖎𝖔𝖓𝖘,   𝖘𝖍𝖊   𝖜𝖆𝖘   𝖑𝖊𝖋𝖙   𝖒𝖔𝖘𝖙𝖑𝖞   𝖇𝖞   𝖍𝖊𝖗𝖘𝖊𝖑𝖋.   𝕳𝖊𝖗   𝖆𝖓𝖉   𝖙𝖍𝖊   𝖈𝖍𝖎𝖑𝖉𝖗𝖊𝖓.   It   was   perhaps   a   small   divine   intervention,   that   neither   Aemond   or   Aegon   seem   to   want   to   spend   time   with   her   and   so   she   spends   her   days   in   her   chambers,   threading,   and   embroidering,   the   children   by   a   side   and   at   times,   she   does   have   a   visitor.   Jace   she   had   not   seen   for   a   while   now,   and   he   had   dare   to   dance   with   her   and   now,   the   atmosphere   in   the   castle   was   grim.   They   were   to   leave   and   Heleana   felt   that   tonight,   all   would   change.  

"Red   and   Black,   Gold   and   Green."   She   speaks   as   she   tries   to   make   visions   into   sense   and   words   that   can   be   explained.   "Grief   that   turns   to   rage.   You   must   not   go   or   arrows   will   pierce   through   you."   She   hates   that   she   can't   say   more   details   because   they   don't   make   much   sense   to   her.   "You   must   think   I'm   mad."   They   all   do,   And   Lilac   eyes   look   upon   him   knowing   that   perhaps   he   will   know   she   is   not   lying,   her   words   a   warning   to   come.  

"You   will   die   if   you   fly   over   the   sea."   And   she   gift   him   a   cloak   she   had   been   embroidering   for   him.   Red   and   Black   cloak,   as   a   proper   prince   should   wear,   such   a   contrast   in   the   way   her   grandmother   makes   most   of   their   clothes   taint   a   shade   of   green.

"I do not think you mad." He had read about dragon dreamers, and even if no one else seemed to understand that that might be what plagued Helaena, he believed it to be so. It was not his place to presume, or to bring these suspicions to light, though he did think someone needed to. He would be back at Dragonstone shortly, and there was no one to tell really, to try and find someone to help her maybe understand it better. And all he knew was from books, which was not much. Not flying over the sea would be difficult, given where Dragonstone was, but he suspected she meant something else. It was confusing, but it was not madness. "Then I will try to avoid flying over the sea into danger." He assures her. The gift is unexpected, and he turns it over in his hands, examining it, a small smile on his face. "Thank you, Helaena." They are due to leave shortly, but he had wanted to make sure she was alright, after the evening had gone downhill so quickly the night before. It had V mostly done out of kindness, asking her to dance, though part of him was aware that he had also done it to antagonize Aegon, for his cruelty and inappropriate behavior. Still, mostly, he had asked her to dance to be kind. "Are you alright, after last night?"

Helaena's   eyes   flickered   briefly   to   Jace   as   he   spoke,   his   words   reaching   her   through   the   haze   of   thoughts   that   always   seemed   to   swirl   just   beneath   the   surface.   She   stared   down   at   the   embroidery   in   her   hands,   fingers   idly   tracing   the   outline   of   a   stitched   dragonfly.

Jace   was   kind.   She   liked   that   about   him.   He   didn’t   mock   or   look   at   her   with   fear,   and   now,   he   said   he   didn’t   think   her   mad.   Helaena's   lips   parted,   her   voice   a   soft,   almost   dreamlike   murmur,   "They   don’t   see   it.   The   threads,   the   way   they   connect...   until   they   break."   She   let   the   words   hang   in   the   air,   not   entirely   sure   if   she   was   speaking   to   him   or   simply   giving   voice   to   the   thoughts   that   never   seemed   to   leave   her.

She   wasn’t   sure   what   the   danger   was,   but   she   had   seen   it   in   her   dreams,   in   flashes   of   deep,   endless   blue   and   darkness   that   swallowed   all   light.   Jace’s   reassurance—that   he   would   avoid   flying   over   the   sea   into   danger—caused   a   faint   smile   to   grace   her   lips.   It   was   rare   for   anyone   to   listen,   let   alone   believe.   Her   fingers   paused   on   the   fabric,   and   she   looked   up   at   him,   her   expression   softening   with   something   like   gratitude.   "Thank   you,"   she   whispered.

When   he   accepted   her   small   gift   and   asked   if   she   was   alright   after   the   events   of   the   night   before,   she   tilted   her   head,   her   pale   hair   shifting   like   spun   silver.   Jace   had   been   kind.   But   Aegon’s   behavior   lingered   at   the   edges,   sharp   and   cruel,   as   it   often   was.   Still,   she   did   not   dwell   on   it.   "I   am   as   I   always   am,"   she   answered,   her   voice   light   but   tinged   with   a   quiet   acceptance.   "But   they   hurt   you   and   Luke,   with   words.   I   find   them   sharper   than   swords."
