You're Taking Over Me

When have I ever been able to tell you what to do.

"Emma’s tenure as queen lasted until Cnut's death in 1035. The union between Emma and Cnut was by all accounts one of mutual respect and affection. The queen was not only a consort, but also an active participant in Cnut’s government and policies." — Larsen, Karen. Canute the Great: 995 (circ)-1035 and the Rise of Danish Imperialism during the Viking Age. 1997. (requested by anon)

Vikings are never lost.

When I took England and became King, I promised that I would keep you safe and I would never leave you exposed as Æthelred did. And you have.

"Elizabeth’s relationship with Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, was perhaps the most important in her life. The savage possessiveness with which she wrote of him - ‘a creature of our own’, as she described him, with all the imperiousness of the royal ‘we’ - in no way diminished his importance in her eyes. For a woman so short of surviving blood relations, he was the nearest thing she had to family." - Sarah Gristwood

I'm sorry I messed this up. You wanted something funny and I... I never wanted anyone to know this, but I dreaded the idea of a new Mountie coming here....If I hadn't been so afraid of what I was feeling for you. If I hadn't stayed, if I hadn't gotten to know you. Here we are. I love you. I love you, too.
