Eigil: Iceland's Mightiest Douchebag

[queenklu]

What you need to know about the Sagas is this: they are largely (LARGELY) historical documents. About real people. Who did these things. Okay go.

Me: So EIGIL. Was this dude, who was kind of a shitty kid, and when he was three his dad was like "no you can't come to this dinner party at your grandpa's place, you're a brat" and Eigil snuck into

DIES LAUGHING.

Also? First picture looks like he's trying to take a dump and work the bellows at the same time. Too hard, man. Too fucking hard, says Eigil.

It is super hard being a deranged viking murder poet man, YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW!

[queenklu]

*GLEECLAPS* I'm glad you liked it bb! ;DD

I'm glad poetry is different these days . . . or something.

[queenklu]

It's definitely...different.

Apparently Icelandic poetry has to be approved by experts who take at least a day deciphering the poem's quality through various literary techniques--and this is MODERN DAY.

Well. Eigil is a character. *cough*

NO, LIKE SERIOUSLY, WRITE THIS BOOK! Like a whole book of retold legends and myths and lore and shit. I love reading about cultural lore and whatnot but sometimes people get too bogged down in the details and my brain hurts. I WANT TO LAUGH AND PEE MY PANTS WHILE I LEARN THINGS, KLU!!! You need to write a whole book like this and I will buy a copy for many, many people, because this is GENIUS. Between this and the porridge story, I am fucking dying right now.

Now let's talk about the important thing I took away from this - athelstan is king - YEAHBOY!!!!! THAT'S HOW HE ROLLS!!!

TOMBOLGUID AND I MAY OR MAY NOT DO A PICTURE BOOK COLLAB AT SOME POINT, noooo promises, but it would be AWESOME. I just need to be careful not to be too much like that one myths retold guy--I'm thinking combo of that and go the fuck to sleep should be best seller y/n?

I want Athelstan to be king almost as much as I want this show to make sensssssssssse

YES. YOU SHOULD DO THIS WITH TOMBOLGUID!! I HAVE SEEN SOME OF HER WORK AND THIS WOULD BE BRILLIANT AND AMAZING AND DOOOOOOOOOO IIIIIIIIT!

Wait, what Myths Retold Guy? Who is this person? I approve of the taste of Go The Fuck To Sleep in your book - just a little flavor of it! This would be a total best seller and you could go on The Daily Show to promo it!

This should be how the series ends - with Athelstan as king, booyay!
