Flailing, so much flailing!! This is my running commentary:

Oh damn, Ragnar is really peeing massive amounts of blood -- that means severe internal inuries!
Floki has stopped wearing clothes at all?
That attack is entirely conducted by shieldmaidens -- go Lagertha!
Corridor of Doom has Barrel of Doom!
Princess Gisela is positively drooling at Rollo!
Ragnar: spitting blood and seeing things!
"Don't abandon me!" **sniffle** And then, monsters come, and Odin! We will have to do something with that in Milliways.
Ansgar von Bremen, of course!! Completely historical. He's the one who wrote about Uppsala and all that.
That Earl Monsterbeast has a rough sense of humour.
What the fuck, Ecbert??
Ragnar is in a majorly bad way!
Shakespeare's histories and tragedies have nothing on the fucked-up royals of Wessex!
OMG Ragnar!!
Yes, he would totally do that for Athelstan -- also, one of the leaders getting baptized was historically always a major selling point for peace treaties in that context. Ragnar's baptism isn't purely emotional; it is a sound political decision. And moving as hell because of all the emotional background with Athelstan. Oh my feels!!!!!

Now, this will mean a number of things for how we handle that in Milliways when the time comes.-
