Forbidden love

The request:

⁑ Warnings: religious conflict. Caution is recommended: Keep in mind the characters' opinions and convictions aren't inherent to the author.

"I still think it is fate, love. The gods crossed our paths for a reason. I think maybe is because you should know them by me."

Björn would patiently try to present his lover to the gods, teach her and probably convert her into a heathen like him. He doesn't want to lose her, but abandon his gods is something he will never do.

"What do you rather believe, love: that we are fated to each other since we were born or that our love is some kind of reprehensible sin that shouldn't exist? What sounds better to you, uh?"

Ubbe would end up making her open her mind to the idea that between his gods, their love is not forbidden, but blessed. So maybe she should try to see things by his point of view and maybe her god isn't so lovely as she thinks.

"Well, I will not regret my sins, love. Especially when you're the best of them all".

Hvitserk wouldn't try to convince her of anything, but he wouldn't also accept being exposed to attempts of conversion. He's a heathen and he seeks for Valhalla. Any type of paradise instead of it doesn't please or attract him. Not even knowing she must be there.

"So, it means we are going to different places after we die? It doesn't bother you, love? I don't know... I like the idea of being yours forever, but I have to say your heaven is pretty boring, seeing from here..."

Sigurd would be able to be curious about her faith, but only with the intent of comparing them both and showing her that she should change sides so they can fulfill their fate and be together no matter where.

"I don't believe this bullshit about free will, love. You came to me cause the gods decided this way. And it doesn't matter what you believe. When I die, I'll go Valhalla and you? You come with me."

Ivar is pretty curious about her faith, making questions, having long conversations about both religions. But he is irreducible about which one is true and where are they going after death. She belongs to him and no man or god will make him think another way.
