Lord Aethelhelm has arrived. A good choice, I feel. Yes. He has quite a gathering with him. Oh, he likes to show his feathers. But he has money and men, both of which I will need. A perfect choice.

#the last kingdom #they are soooo cute #she's like #this is MY lame ass husband #he is so cute and adorable #and she is so valid for that #she is me #I am her #desiring alfred carnally #Serious side note: I think about this scene a lot #like yeah obviously its a very cute aelswith x alfred moment #however I think a lot about the fact that alfreds like “yeah aethelhelm is a great choice because he has money and men which I need” #hmmm #hmmmmmm #it almost sounds like alfred approved and signed off on aethelhelm and wanted him because he needs the support of powerful ealdorman #also alfred was very specific about “the bride must be of the lowerlands” hmm #hmmmm #its almost like aelswith simply suggested aethelhelm because he met all of alfreds criteria #and that she is in fact NOT personally responsible for aethelhelms scheminess #tlk aelswith #tlk alfred #aelswith x alfred #alfred x aelswith #sevenkingsmustdie
