hi ! what are your headcanons for kratos with a submissive female partner as well as a male submissive partner! also people ship freya and kratos and I've seen a few ship hemidall and kratos. what are your takes?

MINORS DO NOT INTERACT or you’re getting the Leviathan axe between the eyes.

Hey!!

I actually headcanon Kratos to be submissive. That “good boy” from Faye followed by the face tap after moving that log, boy likes in control partners. Soooo…

Kratos has spent millennia being the God of War, surrounded by violence, constantly worrying. Poor man just wants someone else to take the reigns for a while ya know

And the dominant partner just revels in it. Kratos may be the king of grunting in front of others but behind a closed tent/door, man’s is letting out a few whimpers just watching and feeling his partner control everything

He’s either instructed not to move/touch or some lucky person has managed to tie this beefcake down.

Definitely not one for calling his partners mummy/daddy but you’re getting a whole lot of monotone “yes’ and mmm’s” from him while he’s beneath his partner. These increase when he’s close.

Tell him he’s doing so good, he’s such a good boy, he’s takes his partner sooo well… outwardly there’s no difference to his demeanour but inwardly this dude is glowing with pride and he’s going to ACHE and you’re definitely feeling him twitch or clamp down.

And after a long day/nights activities, he’s more than happy with aftercare but this man just wants to be the little spoon for a while. Hold him, stroke his big bald head, man needs a rest and a cuddle.

With submissive partners, he’s going to put them in their place and trEAT them RIGHT.

They’re whimpering and whining, begging for him, begging him to go faster, slower, deeper, anything just to get that dam to break and he’s just taking his time.

Going slow, watching pleasure born tears run down their faces. Does he stop? NOPE! He’s going to lick those tears up. It fuels his desire to absolutely wreck his partners.

Too sensitive? Doesn’t matter (unless specified from his partner) he’s going to break them over and over. Man’s a Spartan after all. Aftercare is top notch too.

Freya & Kratos- Fratos (is that their ship name? I dunno)

I might get hate for this but I don’t ship Freya and Kratos together romantically at all. Im not saying those that do shouldn’t, their chemistry is fantastic but he did kill her son after all, that’s hard to get over and the hundreds of years of abuse she suffered from Odin, poor woman is probably just so happy to finally have her freedom I don’t think she’d look at Kratos as other than a friend given how they have both been through so much. But maybe in a few more winters, who knows.

Kratos & Heimdall

And judge me but I have got it down bad for Heimdall but let’s be real, Kratos would WRECK this whiny little twink.

But saying that, I do think they would actually be very good together. Either romantically or as friends.

Heimdall clearly has major daddy issues, can you blame him?

But I think Kratos would be one of a very very small number of people who would be able to teach and guide Heimdall into not being such a prick and channel his superiority, and get Heimdall to refrain so much from his misanthropic virtues.

Like if there was ever someone to nurture Heimdall, help him grow as a person, overcome his demons, make him understand he doesn’t have to constantly search for praise to be a worthy person, Kratos is the man.

~Yandere Freya Headcanons~

Might as well start off by giving my favorite villager some good ol' headcanons! Here we go...

First off, while it's a staple for yandere's to become obsessed with their love interest at first glace, Freya is an exception. No unusual feelings when she first met you. Just a friendly greeting and a little bit of chit-chatting to get to know one another. Though, overtime, her feelings for you would start to form.

Freya hails from viking land (aka Norway). Raised in a small, rural village in the Møre og Romsdal region, she's used to solitude, harsh winters, and a quiet life. So, typically she spends the most time in your town alone. She does like to shop, though. Having lived in Bergen for a couple years, she was never fond on how bustling the city life was but she loved how close a lot of shops were!

Whenever she would interact with anyone, she could sometimes come off as cold or a little rude to some folks. She doesn't mean it, though.

However, while she preferred her own company, you were slowly becoming the exception to this. While she would simply walk pass anyone without even looking at them, you on the other hand she could not help but want to talk to you.

Anytime you were alone outside, the second the wolf would catch a glimpse of you she was sure to check in on you. Asking you about your day, how you're feeling, what you're doing or planning on doing.

She absolutely adores how shy and timid you are around her, since she towers over you and you did find her to be quite attractive.

Freya loves taking you out on her shopping trips with her. Loving every single compliment you gave her on any outfit she bought or tried on and would always pick out ones for you! Even if some may not be your style, she was never short on telling you how beautiful you looked in each one.

She genuinely enjoyed your company. A lot! With frequent visits to her house and vice-versa. Sharing meals, laughing, talking about life, etc.

Overtime, the wolf had become a bit protective over you. To the point where if you two were together, anyone that gave you the slightest bit of attitude, harassment, or god forbid offer you "terrible" service. She would glare at them, menacingly. To the point where they would either back-off or fix their tone or service since she made them uncomfortable.

If you were threatened by a tarantula or a scorpion, Freya would come rushing in to the rescue and kill those foul creatures without hesitation.

Or if you were even just had the mildest of colds, she would practically break into your home to take care of you. You didn't even need to tell her what was wrong, she could sense it. And you can be sure she would not leave your side until you were 100% better.

Your happiness, wellness, and safety were all gradually becoming Freya's top priorities, to the point where you found to be a bit overbearing. Of course you felt flattered that the wolfess was always looking out for you. But sometimes it could feel like you couldn't even have your own space since you soon kept finding yourself wrapped up in her arms.

Anytime an opportunity would arise for hugs and cuddles, she would take it without really asking you for your consent first. It's not like you were suffering, though.

And if you ever so uttered a peep about being cold or showing even the smallest of signs of a chill, you had better cancel your plans for the next few hours because you were gonna be stuck wrapped up in a blanket or two by her as she cuddled you close to keep you nice and toasty. And don't think you could ever escape her grasp, too. She's much stronger.

While rarely leaving you alone anymore. she wasn't hurting anyone. The worst she has done was growl a little and show her fangs at anyone that wronged you in anyway. Most of the time, if anyone was looking at you for too long, Freya would place both of her hands on your shoulders to signal to the on-looker that you were with her. And only her.

Her behavior at this point would plateau for a while. She had no interest in hurting others and simply acted as your guardian.

That was until someone would act just a little too mean with you. Or if they landed a not-so-friendly hand on you. The second Freya would catch wind of this, she would finally snap.

With whoever caused you severe distress, they would suddenly disappear the next day or so.

And if Freya continued to feel like people were stepping out of line with you, her last resort were to be to abduct you and keep you somewhere safe. She doesn't want it to come to that, but if she felt that if the circumstances were met, then she would have no choice.

Don't worry though, wherever she plans on keeping you, you can be assured that she will take the upmost care of you. Even if you were now stuck with her against your will.

HER WEAKNESS WAS AS OBVIOUS AS SNOW UPON A LAND ON WINTER'S DAY. The Ghost of the Uchiha could hardly FORCE himself to look onto her with anything other than SUPERIORITY OVER HER. Body ready for battle.

[xartus]

Had a weird little bit in my semi lucid dream last night where the Thunderer (Thor/Perkwunos) tucked me in and kissed me goodnight and put giant oak leaves over me as a blanket. His beard was scratchy. I was an adult in my dream but seemed child sized compared to him.

It was sweet and the first dream interaction I've had with him!

I go in and out of lucidity often in my dreams. In this one I had to outrun a winter spirit so I wouldn't freeze to death and I also tried to invoke Freya even though I know for a fact she's pretty ambivalent about me (which is fine, I don't know a lot about her historically or in practice either)

But then after that my knowledge of me dreaming left. I say semi lucid because I know its a dream but I can't control it. The most vivid part was of the Thunderer.

The Eye Of The Beholder by Margie Orford

The Eye Of The Beholder

By Margie Orford

Canongate Press

Publication Date: 7 July 2022

Eye Of The Beholder is the first adult centred standalone novel by London born, South African and Namibian born author Margie Orford. Prior to this story, she had previously written a series of five novels featuring South African investigative profiler Dr Clare Hart set in South Africa and Namibia around a decade ago.

In contrast to those earlier stories, Eye Of The Beholder covers a far larger area with action taking place in the snow covered wilds of Canada, to the west coast of Scotland via London and featuring recollections of the dry countryside of South Africa. This makes for an interesting contrast.

Central to the story are three different women and this story follows their life experiences and interactions with each other and the troubled involvements with the men in their lives as life changing secrets from their lives are revealed.

As we encounter the middle aged distressed Cora she is running frantically across the frozen ground in a remote area of Quebec. She is being chased by a dog but she succeeds in putting as much distance between herself and the place she has been in.

Shortly afterwards at a nearby wolf sanctuary the dog is handed in by someone who found it alone. The sanctuary assistant Angel recognises it as belonging to a renowned art dealer called Yves Fournier who lives in a nearby cabin across the lake. Angel visits his cabin and finding it empty, she prompts a search for Fournier. Known to be a cross country skier it is feared that he might have had an accident. In the depths of the Canadian winter Angel realises it would be hard for someone stranded to survive.

Upon a flight across the Atlantic, we learn about Cora’s backstory in South Africa where she was brought up before the death of her parents led her to depart her home country for the UK.

Creating a new life for herself, she met her husband and given birth to her daughter Freya. Also revealed is her passion for painting which led her to develop a successful career. Her last exhibition Forbidden Fruit has given her some unwanted, indeed infamous attention from the British press for its portrayal of a partially clothed female adolescent. The varying viewpoints to this explain the book’s title as The Eye Of The Beholder. The fall out from this leads to the police questioning Freja as it is suspected that the paintings portray images of her suggesting that her mother had carried out a form of child abuse in creating these pictures. We encounter the viewpoint of Freya who living in London and trying to make her own way while also trying to understand more about her mother’s motivations.

As each of the women is on a path to self-discovery there are multiple flashbacks to key incidents in each of the characters’ lives, most prominently for Cora. I did feel that there was a lot of detail to these sections and to aspects of Cora’s relationships. While her marriage to Leo did not last, he does still maintain contact with her and her daughter. Cora has previously been flattered when her work received the attention of a leader within the arts world however this association leads to an unsatisfactory relationship. It goes though take her time to realise the deception that she has endured.

The more immediate storyline features Angel who we learn has experienced some dark episodes and makes some dubious acquaintances of her own. Her investigations as to the fate of Yves Fournier finally points her in Cora’s direction. The pace does rise in the story as Angel plans a confrontation while Freya receives an urgent call from Leo to go to travel to Scotland to see Cora, thus ensuring that each of the characters will be in close proximity. After the shocking revelations are exposed a dramatic conclusion rounding up this story of revenge, abuse and exploitation.

While at times The Eye Of The Beholder feels quite removed from a race against the clock thriller, I did find it a satisfying and thought provoking read which examines dark issues such as child abuse, online pornography and self-harm. I found it a very effective and imaginative portrayal of women who refuse to be victims.

Many thanks to Canongate for an advance copy of Eye Of The Beholder and to Tracy Fenton at Random Things Tours for inclusion on the blog tour. Please see details of the other reviewers on the book tour above.

Hey gayyyyyys I’m making a lesbian game (I’m a compsci & English double major and a hopeless lesbian so why not🥰)!!

It’s about two magical princesses fighting against a prophecy �� I’m so so starved of poc lesbian representation in video games so I’m making my own!

It’s very story-centered (because I loooove interactive stories like Life is Strange and Detroit: become human) and I will do my absolute best to create the story and the art.

I am doing everything by myself so it will take a couple months but I will absolutely finish it! I will release it on iOS, Android, and Steam (if they’ll have it lol)

I’m currently on the second draft of the script; been writing whole day this winter break ❤️ I will start posting the art soon. This is my first “serious” game ever so I’m super duper excited!! 🤣 I hope you will love Klara and Freya as much as I love them 🥰

Next up in the tarot/Six mashup series is Shiva ... and Prompto! As the Sun! This might seem like a weird combination, but stick with me:

Shiva is often positioned as the kindest of the Six, and she’s definitely the kindest in her interactions with Noct. Even Ramuh, who was pretty nice, still tested him in battle, whereas Shiva handed her blessing over without a fight. Prompto is also, hm, not the ‘kindest’ of the bros per se -- they’re all quite kind in their own ways -- but he’s the most emotionally open, and has the warmest relationship with Noct.

We see more of Shiva’s story than the others, and its all about love. First her love for Ifrit, then her love for Luna, which moves her to help Noct without the need for battle. Ignis and Gladio are driven by their duty and loyalty to the Crown in addition to their affection for Noctis, but Prompto is driven by nothing but said friendship. Like Shiva, Prompto’s story is all about love -- his love for Noct, and also his lack of self-love and the empty loneliness of his childhood. Also like Shiva, Prompto is connected to Noct through Luna’s insight and strength of will.

It might seem weird to link snow and the Sun, as snow is often linked to cold and darkness. But then I thought of a sunny snow day, when the winter sun is high in the sky and glittering off the snow and trees. There’s so much freedom and happiness in days like that, which the Sun card represents. I tried to capture some of that feeling here with lots of sparkle and bloom effects. Prompto is also linked to snow through his DLC.

About the Sun card: “The Sun represents success, radiance and abundance. The Sun gives you strength and tells you that no matter where you go or what you do, your positive and radiant energy will follow you and bring you happiness and joy. People are drawn to you because you can always see the bright side and bring such warmth into other people’s lives. This beautiful, warm energy is what will get you through the tough times and help you succeed.” This is pretty much Prompto, right? The card itself has a kid riding a horse, which also made it a perfect opportunity to include a chocobo.

The Sun card has four sunflowers on it. I deviated from this to include four types of flowers instead, all of which symbolize Prompto, his personality, and his relationships:

Daffodil: regard, unrequited love

Yellow tulips: “there’s sunshine in your smile”, perfect love

Bluebell: humility, gratitude, everlasting love

Yellow primrose: optimism, a sacred flower of the goddess Freya (the ot3!). Primroses are one of my favorite flowers, and are always connected to Watership Down for me

Anyway, I learned a lot when making this card, between the snow, atmosphere, and particle effects. Modeling the flowers was a challenge, and I’m still not 100% happy with them, but close enough. And it’s hard not to be cheerful when looking at flowers and chocobos and Promptos!
