( Since tackling him, Lagertha has been much more at ease. Much more herself, and confident of the fact that they will be all right. Whether they are able to find (or steal!) passage home, or they build something for themselves here until the might, they will be just fine. Standing beside him, or laying atop him as she is currently, she feels able to take on the world. Just as she always has in her dreams. In which they are ever side-by-side. Never separate. One unit, attacking any challenge before them and conquering it.

The forest returns to life in a burst of sound and colour the moment he releases her wrists. Birds flap their wings and call trillingly overhead, and she can feel the tickling sensation of an ant crawling along her arm. The pair of them are covered in twigs, leaves and mud. There is a streak of it as wide as her thumb is long upon her left cheek, and she can't help but laugh in unison with him. This is familiar. More along the lines of what they both find familiar. )

That would be impossible when you've already chased it away. ( The upturn of her mouth has a smug air to it, and she grins as he pulls them up, the ant falling back to the damp earth, forgotten. Lagertha presses her index and middle fingers together, and jabs him playfully just beneath his ribs with another laugh of her own. )

It is heading east.

[The mud on her face doesn't bother him, they are used to a lifestyle than many. They are as clean as they can be but no afraid to get dirty, to let the blood of their battles linger on their faces. It was just how they were and so he makes no move to push aside the smudge upon her cheek, the look familiar, endearing and simply the way life was. The sounds of the forest though call them, and out of the shock of seeing one another, the intense focus upon one another, the Northman finds himself looking up to sky that breaks through the dense woodland cover, watching the birds jump from one branch to the other before his blue eyes turn to focus back on her own. He can feel the dampness of the forest floor seeping into the clothing of his back but he doesn't mind, the dirt on his elbows, the leaves in the turns and twists of his hair.

Her words make him chuckle once more and give his eyes a small roll skywards before looking back to her with a lidded gaze. Reaching up he took hold of her hand and pulled himself to his feet, dusting off his slacks and tunic before he feels the jab into his torso and the chuckle turns more into a laugh as he makes a move to grab her wrists once more, trying to pull her close and throw her a little off balance but keeping her upright.]

It won't go far. [Came his playful reply before releasing her once more and striding back to his things to pick them up, throwing his shield over his back, quick to return to her side as if this could be a dream, as if when he turned around she would no longer be there.]

Come on then, woman. Get your weapons. [The teasing of his voice was obvious, the smile on his lips matching it, his expression lidded as he shooed at her with the handle of his axe.] Always dragging your feet.
