She'd seen the same sort of thing with her cousins... her brothers sometimes had to act like this for her, too. At a certain point, aggression and temper tantrums just stopped being a surprise.
"It certainly won't be born here, so I can't see what the issue is..." She lets out a quiet huff, "I don't suppose there's anything I could offer you in return for some assistance? Either... reasoning with him, or otherwise assuring my safety?"
Ivar was never particularly easy to deal with and even at times Ubbe had trouble being able to read his behavior accurately. Sometimes it was just a guessing game and a most unpredictable one at that.
"He's usually fairly logical but he loses control whenever his emotions are in play."
Ubbe shrugs at her proposal of sorts.
"I'm not sure you could but I do my best to limit the harm he does."
"I do wish I knew what made him act so irrationally with me, then."
She lets out an exasperated huff, but her good spirits don't seem to diminish in the slightest. She bounces up to kiss Ubbe's cheek, before moving to leave.
"Thank you - really. All I ask is that you try. If I do end up dying, I suppose I'll just come right back, so there isn't much harm."
Ubbe looks slightly amused as he glances over at her again and then shakes his head. "You'll never come to a satisfactory answer if you look at Ivar for rationality. He's anything but rational."
He blinks in surprise when she kisses his cheek and looks perplexed. That's not exactly a common Viking custom after all.
"That we know of anyway," Ubbe mutters, as he doesn't think matters such as life or death could really be so trivial.
