Okay, now that the synopsis/story teaser via the description is out of the way...let me begin to run down some things for all of you prospective readers out there!
Firstly, please be kind to me...I've not sat down and written something creative for years...and it has especially been a hot second since I've written any fanfiction (I've literally only been writing academic papers for the past few and stuff for my coursework...basically, terribly and horribly boring stuff). So, I'm suffice to say I bit rusty over here...so, don't be too harsh on me guys! ;)
(No, but seriously I do appreciate feedback or comments and would love to know what y'all think and whether or not you're enjoying it at all.)
Also, I have a bit of an often varied way and tone of writing I feel, so I apologize if it throws any of you readers off a bit...my manner of writing isn't always for everyone I'm aware, and I'm definitely not one for toning stuff down or writing in PG/PG-13 manner...my stuff is usually rated MA for mature (so you have been warned here...just saying).
Anyways, I decided to start writing again and specifically to start writing this story upon seeing a rather large paucity of fanfiction devoted to one of my favorite television series (and what will likely become one of my favorite book series once I actually have time to sit down and read it)- The Last Kingdom/The Saxon Stories.
So, given this literary/fanfiction gap and my apparent need to be all creative and seek out approval from you fine folks over here on the interwebs...I decided to indulge myself and write some of my own. Also, it should be noted I have a special soft spot for any and all stories containing any element of time travel...so I will be shamelessly indulging in that arguably cliché and often overused fanfiction trope. (Ahem, sorry not sorry...but I love that stuff and seriously cannot get enough of it.)
ALSO, SUPER IMPORTANT STUFF TO NOTE BEFORE GOING FURTHER!!!
Before you start reading, I want to warn you all of a few things that will be arising within the story itself...
1. The story will start off more modern and will probably be a bit slower for some of you (I like to try and build up my characters and their backgrounds a bit before jumping into it...so there might be what you all consider fillerin some parts...so for that I apologize.) But seriously I hope you stick with it and make it past the first few chapters...I promise it'll be worth it!
2. Also, I will try my best to post periodically (either in bulk batches here and there or every week or so); I'm currently in university so I frequently find myself quite busy (when ahem, I'm of course not slacking on my coursework to write fanfiction over here for you guys). Basically, this is an apology in advance if I am a little slow on the posts...again, just bear with me folks! It will eventually come!
3. There will be lots of vulgarities and loads of profanity throughout the story...so if you're sensitive to foul mouthed women...then this might not be a story for you my friend I'm sorry to say. Also, there will be frequent drug references/drug usage from time to time within chapters (nothing mega serious however, just marijuana)...if this bothers you, I'm sorry but once again perhaps this isn't your sort of story my friend?
4. There will be trigger warning NSFW explicit content and instances of violence, assault, and/or abuse within this story (I will add a disclaimer to the top of any chapter that contains the stuff so you can either brace yourself a bit before you get into reading them or skip them entirely). Also, not to worry not all the NSFW explicit stuff will be trigger-warning-worthy-horrible-things (I'm not an absolute sadistic monster obviously)...and so there will also be plenty of good kinds of NSFW explicit content ;) if you catch my meaning...
(But, again seriously if anything makes you uncomfortable please refrain from reading or just try and skip parts if you want...I really don't want to make anyone upset or uncomfortable here...)
Also, the pairings in this fanfiction run the gambit a bit but will likely be as follows- OC/Uhtred & OC/Finan & OC/OC.
And for all you Finan fans out there...don't worry I got you. ;) Trust me you will not be disappointed.
Anyways, I hope you all enjoy the story! Cheers! <3 xoxo
