[Lagertha]

this will never end, ‘cause i want more, more, give me more

Ugh. Lagertha is so misunderstood. Though she doesn’t know it, Ea thinks she’s a little stupid because she doesn’t know how to manipulate those in power - which is wrong, she’d just rather not lay down her viper of a mother. Some of her sisters think she’s power-hungry, which is true, but the ultimate reason is because she doesn’t think Scorch is a good Queen. She thinks the mare is more concerned with advancing her own growing tribe of children than doing what’s best for the Kingdom. She thinks Scorch will always be like that, because of her Mommy issues.

And then there’s these two, who answer her sarcastic words with more angst and bitterness. Oh, ladies… Lagertha may not have much of a visible heart, but she’s no sadist.

Their reactions amuse her, as they assume so much. They answer with each other’s names, and so now Lagertha has the advantage of mystery. “No, I’m not a voyeur. You wear your emotions on your skin. I’m Lagertha, General of the Jungle.” With her title on her lips, she sidesteps out of reach of the Lye’s snapping teeth. She could have just as easily sprouted her thorns (or even worse, diamond spikes) as a deterrent, but she is not here as the aggressor.  Anyone in her position would try and offer some sort of remedy in their Kingdom - and wouldn’t that just be perfect? To bring in two (maybe just one? who knows?) new recruits and build up her “side” of the Amazons.

In helping herself, she helps others.

Besides, have you ever heard of the mad Grim Reaper? Her blood runs through Lagertha’s veins, and so i suppose there must be some predilection to insanity in the gray General as well. Either way, she is unphased with Lye’s words, simply rolling her eyes a bit at the dramatics. “Strange or not, you seemed to have some half-formed death wish, running like that in the snow and ice. So what’s wrong? Come out with it, both of you.” She uses her ‘mother talking to a child’ voice, which is only a couple of steps down from her ‘General talking to a soldier’ voice.
