#rolisla fandom

Awww. Thanks for asking. I’ve been reading a lot of fanfics that leave me in awe. Some of them get lost in my messy blog. I can’t find them by the tags for some crazy reason. Tumblr sucks. I’m sure I’ll forget to mention some of my favorite writers. Please, forgive me. ^^

First of all, your own fic, my lady. Sweet Torture. A fierce woman from a far away land is torturing Ivar with the promise of pleasure. He thinks he is her master, little he knows that the more he wants to control her, the more he is in her hands. We are tortured alongside him throughout the reading. Hahahaha.

The last Friday Heathen Game was crazy and the talented sisters nailed it. Beware that those fics have warning about stalker, kidnapper and serial killer Ivar. So far, I haven’t read any fic praising or romanticizing this topic. What makes me glad.

@captainpoopweinersoldier​ wrote an amazing piece in which you can feel like you are inside Ivar’s mind. It’s called Give You Everything.

Summary:

Ivar is your ex-boyfriend, and he will do anything to get you back.

When the sister says anything, she really means anything.

@ivartheheathen​ wrote a sequence of her stalker fic with Ivar as well. It’s hot and twisted. You were warned. Hahahaha. It’s Stalker.

Summary:

Ivar’s brothers use to tell him that he needs a hobby. But he does have a hobby, his favorite activity: to watch you.

@synnersaint wrote for the first time and my baby nailed it. Decide is an amazing piece. Thrilling and you can feel like you are living the terror with the poor girl. I can’t wait for more.

Play Along by @brightlycoloredteacups is fantastic. But, I couldn’t find the link on AO3. The link is from her blog, but she has an account on AO3. Her series Nothing But Love is cuteness overload.

Ivar stares at the glossy pictures in front of him. He’s trying to gather courage for tonight, and looking at your beautiful, smiling face gives him that courage. There are many pictures of you in the binder. He has them categorized by type, then by date. Of course, he has his favorites that he wants to put at the very front, but he must have order too. Those are all the fics from the Friday Heathen Games I could find the links. Unfortunately I’m having problems to find things on my blog. Now other fics I’m reading.

@that-was-not-supposed-to-happen. Follow her. She writes amazing pieces, not only about Ivar and from smut to fluff topics. Not to mention her pretty moodboards as well. 

@sereniti9. She is a poet. Follow her. Kind, smart and talented sister.

@ivartheboneme. This sister is one of the worse, hahahaha. She will make you sin with Ivar or/and Tom Hiddleston. Don’t let her kindness fool you, she is evil. That’s why I love her. Efterfest and Oral assignment are my faves.

@lordavanti is an incredible writer and her account on AO3 is here. Her piece Imagine Your Wedding Night With Ivar was so cute and it’s my favorite from her.

@ivarsvalkyrie wrote Trooper. Ivar as a gentle cop, with a hidden side (spoiler alert is from my mind. Hahahaha).

Keep Your Silence from @captainpoopweinersoldier​. She is here again. What can I say? The girl is gifted.

Summary:

After his father’s death, Ivar finally returns to University in need of a tutor. Skeptical, and a little wary of the rumors surrounding the Lothbrok Family’s notorious connection to the Mob, Lisbet reluctantly accepts the position.

Leif Ivarsson from @bonniebird. Ivar is having problems to accept he is going to be a father.

Control by @mizzvengenz6661. It’s an intriguing story in a modern AU. Ivar and Alex share the same body and woman. It’s great and the latest chapter was surprising. ^^

The Saga of The Slave Queen from my Aussie baby girl @burntmythroatskullingmytea. Ethna is a strong Irish girl who is taken as captive.

Feed You The Sky by @pokeasleepingsmaug and @shesafreesoul. Kára is a fierce viking woman who wants what it’s hers by right. But she will find much more when she challenges Ivar to a single combat.

Turn The Tide by @anniemar.

Summary:

A new young seer in Kattegat conspires with Lagertha to ensure that the queen will not be “killed by a son of Ragnar” as it had been prophesied. In the process, Ivar gets an education of sorts, before he goes off to become myth and legend. And the seer must decide if she wants to become a part of his story. Sig is a fascinating character. I love her.

Bathe in Fire, Burn in Blood by my cupcake @underthenorthstar. Summary: Ivar wants glory. Ivar wants fame. Ivar wants revenge. But, he also wants love. He’s pretty messed up. But then again, she is too. (In which Ivar secretly longs for love, meets the girl of his literal dreams, and finds himself on a path he never thought he would travel.)

@inthenameofodin wrote a multichapter called This Ends Tonight that is a slow burn. Great work. Her Masterlist is here.

@pagan-raider writes amazingly well. Her masterlist is here.

The queen of sin @cherrytrinkets can be cute too. Her piece Little Legs made me cry. It’s a must read.

Last but never the least. My queen @whenimaunicorn​. The one who keeps me awake reading, fangirling and writing endless comments. ^^

Ride The Storm, Snowed In With The Ragnarssons, This Is How A Sin Begins… Everything she writes is a masterpiece. Warning: Extra panties. Hahahaha. Her AO3 account here.

From Rolisla fandom we have @ourashesofroses. She is a sweet baby. Be kind and praise her because she is a talented and kind girl. Her fanfic is gold.

@zoesongs is incredible too. One day she will be a published author for sure. Her The Princess and The Bear is one of my favorite Rolisla fic. She wrote some  pieces about GOT too. My favorites are Her Hand, in which Sansa explains why she doesn’t want to marry, and Reunion for Sansan shippers.

Another Rolisla writer is @seersaw. Nightfall is incredible. Summary:

Slight AU. Rollo doesn’t speak up when the Cardinal comes and Gisla is being as stubborn as ever. In order to save all he has worked for Rollo must win over the heart of the stubborn princess using every trick he knows. A story inspired by the myth of Psyche and Eros.

Awwww. I’m not sure if I’m the best writer to give these pieces of advice. But, as my sister by heart entrusted me this question, I can’t disappoint, right? I’ll write about what works for me.

I think we can’t write without a base. So, find something that you want to talk about, that makes you happy. If it’s not your first language, don’t be afraid. I started learning English a little more than a year ago. In January of 2016. I’m so lucky and grateful that I only found gentle and supportive people here on Tumblr.

Looking right at you @zoesongs, @laure-demontety, @daizydoe. My first friends here. It would be unfair not to mention my sisters from Ivar’s heathen army. I will tag some of you, but we all know this army is huge, and always increasing. If I forget someone, don’t be upset. Please. @pokeasleepingsmaug, @whenimaunicorn, @mizzvengenz6661, @shesafreesoul, @underthenorthstar, @anniemar, @pagan-raider, @ivartheboneme, @ivartheheathen, @devilrydaily, @rosepetaldream-blog, @thenorns-themoirai.

I was never bullied by my spelling, grammar or punctuation mistakes. And I can assure you all, that I have made, and still make, a lot of them. If someone is putting you down for your flaws, insecurities or mistakes, instead of helping you gently, stay away. It’s better to avoid toxic people.

I love researching almost as much as I love writing. So, when I feel like I’m running out of ideas, I start reading articles, searching for pictures and historical curiosities.

Reading - Reading books, fanfics and writing material of others might be a way to trigger your own ideas.

Watch something related to your theme. It’s another way to increase your creativity and overcome writer’s block. As I’m writing about Vikings, I usually rewatch my favorite episodes from the show, or the ones that the character I want to write about appears the most. Another movies with the theme help me as well.

Music - Some people prefer silence. But, I have a playlist that makes me think about my characters. Sometimes, a whole chapter can be inspired by one word or sentence.

And finally, write. If it’s not in your first language, and you are not sure about some words, write some of them in your own language, then search for the appropriate word later. I keep a notebook with notes and ideas for chapters, or I type them on my cell phone. If you have an idea, write it down as soon as possible, even if it’s not for your next chapter. You can fill the gaps later on. I have three chapters “in the future” of The Fox and The Maiden Fair.

Awwww. You’re inspired today, aren’t you?

Let’s see. I have an almost endless list of favorite fanfics.

From Rolisla fandom and in no particular order.

From @zoesongs:

The Princess and The Bear. This masterpiece is historicaly accurate and portrays how it would be Rollo and Gisla marriage at the time.

Nothing Sweeter will please those who watched season 4b and didn’t recognize that Rollo, a man who always dreamed of a  family, happiness, wealthy and power, these last two not in a selfish manner, but as a way to bring prosperity for his people. In this fanfic Rollo is a happy father and husband. A true Duke, loyal to those who gave him a chance to prove himself worth of trust.

The Consummation. Rollo and Gisla are able to talk to each other and come to an agreement.

Ice Road Truckers. In a modern AU, Rollo is a rough and tumble Ice Road Trucker who meets a beautiful and lost driver.

From @daizydoe:

Nightfall. It’s a story in which Gisla receives a mysterious guest in her bedchambers every night, while she is trying to divorce Rollo.

The Birth of a Son. For those who wanted to watch Gisla giving birth to their first son.

Duet. If you’re curious about how it would be Rollo and Gisla consummation.

“She led him by the hand to her chambers […] If he had any say in the way his wedding happened, he would have planned it like this. Going only with her […]“.“As she drifted back to reality she stroked his back and murmured little love words she thought she would never speak to anyone.”

The Things That Bind Us. If you wonder how it would be if Gisla was taken to Kattegat, instead of staying in Normandy.

From @laure-demontety:

Crashing Waves: Drowning and Betrayal. If you like Gisla and Rollo, mermaids, Norse Mythology, then you will love it. What I love the most about this fic is that Aslaug is fairly portrayed, as a wise, caring and strong woman.

Shield Wall and Coffee. It’s a modern AU with Gisla and Rollo. I miss this fic. Please keep writing it. ^^

From @ladyofglencairn. The absolute goddess. If you love tv shows, you should follow this cutie. ^^

Beauty and The Beast. Gisla is stubborn, but Rollo is decided to win her over.

From @swimmingfoxsticks. If you like A Song of Ice and Fire too, you should follow her.

Hati and Sköll. Gisla and Rollo wedding night.

“Her bottom lip was as fat as a pot-rabbit. Carefully, he put his hand up, ran his thumb along it. The feeling of her – as if her whole weight and strength was just under the skin. He traced the line of her jaw, and it was the underside of sheepskin, the down of yellow chicks. Her eyes were accusing, and yet he saw the seer in them, and his words again. And he saw his gods, and maybe hers.He leant down, kissed her. Kept his hand on her neck. Her breath came into his face as if from behind a big rock, reluctant. A little tremor of her back teeth, chattering together.” 

From @literatigeek, well known as the one and only Princess Gisla in the RP community, @aprincessoftheblood.

Things Forgotten. Michael Hirst didn’t show us how Rollo and Gisla relationship developed. If you miss those moments. I highly recommend you to read this fanfic.

An Intimate Announcement. It takes place in season 4x08, we can see how Gisla would announce her pregnancy to her husband.

What say you? It’s another fic about the consummation of Gisla and Rollo marriage.

From @amkatepet:

The following fanfiction is about a not popular character from Vikings: Erlendur.

The Fate The Gods Wove Us is an outstanding fanfic that deals with Erlendur’s story after his divorce from Torvi. The author managed to make an underrated character more relatable.

From Ivar’s Heathen Army:

Some of the fics are available on Archive of Our Own, others are only posted here. Anyway, follow these cuties. We swear that we are not dangerous. We are totally normal. @shesafreesoul, @lottak, @underthenorthstar, @ivarthebonelessx, @pokeasleepingsmaug, @whenimaunicorn, @rosepetaldream-blog, @mizzvengenz6661, @anniemar, @ivartheboneme, @ivartheheathen, @pagan-raider, @thenorns-themoirai, @devilrydaily, @synnersaint, @captainpoopweinersoldier​, @neverlands-little-lost-girl​. We have more members, but I’m still “meeting” them.

Little voices, by @ivartheboneme. If you wonder how Ivar would be as a father. Of three, hahahaha. That’s your fic. Warning: Sweetness overload.

Control, by the  @mizzvengenz6661. It’s a really different story. Alex and Ivar are one and the same. Modern AU.

Feed You The Sky by the adorable @pokeasleepingsmaug. Her original character is truly amazing, fierce and daring. Kára is everything Ivar dared to dream of and vice versa. I’m addicted to this fanfic. But, I’m not going to rehab. No, no, no.

Turn the Tide, by @anniemar. A new seer arrives in Kattegat. She must choose if she will be part of Ivar’s legend or help Lagertha to avoid the prophecy that she will be killed by a son of Ragnar.

The Cripple and The Hellcat and Raising The Stakes, by @underthenorthstar. Ivar is not only craving for glory, he dreams of a woman.

Hold Me Down and Watch me Drown from @whenimaunicorn. The original character is Sigrunn, King Harald’s daughter, she is a hostage in Aslaug’s household to avoid treachery from her father.

Did you miss me? from @ivartheheathen. The OC’s loyalty is divided between Ivar and Lagertha.

And then I have my fanfics. But, you already know them and support me.

The Fox and The Maiden Fair. I’m basing the storyline on the Annals of Ulster and Ivar’s saga He is married to an Irish princess, Emer. It takes place before my another fanfic.

Shoutout to the talented Rolisla writers ( I love you for giving us so many fanfics to read!!! <3). @literatigeek @althaea1989 @seersaw @zoesongs @ceridwenofwales @snailfrog @ktwrites @stripesandpolkadot @the-beccaria-cage @deliriosdeladama
