[chaos-of-the-abyss]

anyone else think kratos and faye are kind of echoed in surtr and sinmara? surtr is a fire giant, kratos is associated with fire. sinmara is an ice giant, faye is associated with ice. both kratos and faye have some degrees of control over their respective elements via the weapons they use. also, according to the mural atreus and angrboda saw, surtr and sinmara battled each other before growing close and falling in love, while faye states that she and kratos nearly took each other's heads off at first meeting. also 2x surtr carrying sinmara's heart inside his chest and sinmara carrying his heart inside her chest, while faye tells kratos that she will always be a part of him, and he will always be a part of her

A haven for you

Kratos is just tad bit romantic, so a small warning here.

“ Oh Kratos…. playing mortal?”, a voice

“ attempting to start anew?” a voice he knows well. “ Athena,” says Kratos.

 “He sees her in front of him, skeletal and sickly, yet smiling cruelly. 

 “A monster like you? Pretending to be good? You have the nerve?!” she screamed at him. She launched maniacally, “ Pretend all you want! Monster!” 

He launches from his furs, a cold sweat clinging to his skin. Blades already in hand, he looks around for any threat. He finds none and sits down once again, a silent sigh of relief.

“ Kratos?” he looked up to see her, Faye had entered the cabin and he hadn’t even noticed.

He looked away as he did not want her to see him in such a state. 

Faye kneeled in front of kratos “ Kratos? What’s wrong?” she asked, concerned at his panic.

He looked away and said nothing. It had been months since they had started living together. After the death of Lysandra and Calliope Kratos had vowed a life of solitude. He had vowed to live a life of peace in this new land. He hadn’t wanted to bring hardship.

Yet, despite all the barricades he built she tore through them down with the same fierceness of Leviathan. Her fierce kindness and need to care for Kratos brought him to his knees.

After she confessed her fondness and need for him, he spent days pondering her.

Could he love again? Would she scorn him for his past? For what his rage manifested into?

The answer was yes and no. She loved him and listened to what he had done, the blood on his hand, the lives he took, and the reason for his skin. She didn’t scorn him nor did she disdain. 

“ kratos?” her voice broke out of his reverie. 

This time he looked in her eyes, her earnestness was enough to bring any god to his knees, even more the man that he was on the inside. 

“ Did you have a troubling dream?” she guessed.

“ Athena”

She smiled slightly, “ C’mon grumbles, you’re gonna have to give me more than that so I can help you” she said

“ She was a goddess, who liked the others, tricked me into murdering others for her. She has haunted my dreams ever since I left that land. 

“ Why did you never say anything kratos” she sounded sorrowful

“  It is burden I bear” he said simply

He was still sitting on the furs when she gave him a tight hug.

“ No” she declared

“ It isn’t your or anyone’s burden to bear” she squeezed him 

They stayed like that for a time. Her hands on his back, embracing, while his wrapped on hers as well. The fire crackled lightly and the furs never felt softer than those moments. 

He doesn’t remember when fell asleep, and yet she stayed awake.

 She stayed awake and traced his tattoos all while humming some Jotun that was sure to calm his mind and give him fonder dreams. She made a mental note to be more observant around to make sure there wasn’t anything else he was struggling on his own.

When she left Jotunheim, she had never felt more alone than at that moment. Her youth was spent fighting and trying to push Odin’s oppression. All her friends and family had been killed and she was the only one left. Midgard was lonely but she felt it was better that way. She had too many strings attached and all who got tangled never met a happy fate. When she saw him, even as battled, her mind and heart knew there would be more to this.

She felt even more when they settled down and stopped attempting to kill each other and she pried more than one word off his lips. That night she made a vow, to protect him and prepare him.

Prepare him for the day she won’t be there.

I would like to dedicate some lyrics from my favorite band, " The Amazing Devil"

Sleep now, she pleads

you’re not a coward cos you cower

you're brave because they broke you

yet broken still you breathe

hey man you got some more random atreboda headcanons for me please 👁️👁️

since u asked so nicely anon <3333

underdressed bf x overdressed gf

comparing hand sizes (lets guess who's idea THAT was 🙄)

atreus teaches angrboda to shoot his bow and she teaches him more jotnar magic 🥲

daughter-in-law angie asking papa-in-law kratos for takeout bc he said no to tretre but now tretre is using angie for what he wants bc he knows kratos cant say no to his daughter in law (spoiler alert, it worked.)

modern HS/early college AU where atreus convinces angrboda to skip class and ofc she says yes after the 3948th ask 😭 he takes her all around the city and blows up his card being stupid and is on punishment for a month

they made it a routine to meet up, (if they’re not already living together) cuddle and watch the stars together at their favorite place✨

making bracelets or other jewelry for eachother

Modern AU where angrboda and atreus are almost joined together at the hip and are troublemakers anywhere they go and not having a care in the world whoever thinks terribly of them. They're borderline if not actual felons at this point but as long as they have eachother, nothing else matters.

angrboda teaching atreus how to do her hair and now he cant stop putting her in hairstyles that he thinks she’d look good in 😭 also likes to put flowers in her hair

angrboda likes to make random knitted items, accessories or clothing for the both of them and atreus is seen with atleast one of those items a day (everybody’s like hey man where’d you get that thing from and hes like, my gf 😁)

While in their animal forms, they play alongside fenrir and jormie and the other ironwood animals

famous painter!angrboda, aspiring artist!atreus

Due to atreus’ greek blood, he retains alot of body heat and angrboda uses him as her personal heater when its too cold lol

both of them redoing their existing tattoos and or making new ones on eachother 🥺

Modern au where theyre popular tattoo artists

angrboda likes to play with his ears and this causes him to sleep everytime regardless of human or wolf form 😂😂

before laufey left jotunheim, her and angrboda’s parents were close. Laufey swore to protect them in their next lives when they meet once more 🥺 although its mostly from his own feelings of love, atreus doesnt realize that his need to protect angrboda also comes from the promise of their parents, unknowingly fulfilling his (and his mother’s) duty even further 💔🥹

OOOOO IM SO HAPPY SOMEONE IS SPEAKING ABOUT THIS!!!

I have always wondered the same, especially when they first. I know Kratos had spend a GOOD BIT in the Norselands before meeting Faye (I’m mainly going off on the timeline that was shown in the lore and legends book) And it makes me wonder how exactly did Kratos himself learn a good bit or Norse especially since (if I’m correct) in the lore and legends book and what he has said in the past, he mainly stayed to himself deep in the woods, not really interacting much with anyone during the time when he first arrived, which makes me wonder how exactly did Faye and Kratos communicate?

To me and how I would see it, maybe Faye started to teach him more words and learn how to communicate better when he slowly SLOWLY opened up to her more. And when they eventually got closer and he felt comfortable, maybe he taught Faye a few Greek words here and there just for the fun of it and wanting to be closer to her (Hehehe I LOVE talking about these two so much I’m geekin)

But anyways, as much as I love the mystery of what happened when they first met and their lives together before they had Atreus (and they spent a LONG time together getting to know one another lol) and how I love to imagine on how it all went down, I can’t help but somewhat wish we’d get something, a dlc, a novel, literally ANYTHING on their relationship before Atreus and how it bloomed into what they had. I wish we can get more lore of them specifically and wish we could’ve gotten more scenes of those two in Ragnarok. But of course, it’s a beautiful story and I love what SMS did in Ragnarok.

With the game finally out on PC now, I’m excited for the new group of fans that are about to join and hopefully, we’ll be hearing about new content soon. For now, I’ll keep indulging on fanart and fics hehe

I've seen varying opinions on the idea of Faye speaking Greek so I wanted to see what you guys think

PALE STRANGER CHAPTER 15

Hi God of War family!

Thank you so much for your patience during the hiatus. It was a little longer than expected but I took some time to do some reworking of ideas that I've had and I'm really exciting to share them with you all. I think this is my longest chapter to date and you all deserve it after the long wait.

As always, you're all the best and I'm so excited to get the next chapters up!

DM me anytime on me if you ever have questions, comments, or concerns. Or just pop by if you want my unhinged 3am thoughts. I love your feedback and it truly means so much to me.

Stay safe out there everyone.

xoxo Howler

@thisforgottenlore​ said: "I... love you. I just wanted to tell you that." ( for faye :3c) -- { this is legit from your old Kratos blog. I have so many old asks from you, I’m so sorry for being such a disappointment but I still wanna answer them all ;-; }

meme: Dragon Age sentence starters ;; status; accepting

♔—- Her time with Kratos had been... interesting, to say the very least. They started off on a bit of a rocky stretch, as Kratos wandered into Laufey’s camp in a manner that suggested he was a threat and very much aware of the fact. It hadn’t taken her long to plant him firmly in the ground and show him why she wasn’t someone worth messing with, lest he wanted to lose what remained of his then-broken body.

Faye, however, was nothing short of a kind creature, a nurturer at heart, and while she had absolutely no hesitation in defending herself, her people, and her weapon, she just as quickly apologized, lowered herself down onto her knees, and offered Kratos her assistance.

At first, he’d seemed... unwilling to accept. She was a stranger, one that proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that she could hold her own against him, and if she wished it, she would be nothing more than a threat to him, his well being, and any goals he may wish to accomplish. After all, he’d been searching for her axe, and she made it very clear that she had no intention of letting him have it. 

She had, however, taken care of him. It became obvious quickly that the reason he desired her weapon so dearly was no because of the power it held, but his belief that its magic could be used to heal a wound that would not heal. It proved simple work for her to patch him up, though his recovery stretched on for many days. She’d been forced to make a more permanent camp for them, one with a makeshift shelter that protected them--more important, Kratos--from the elements and proper wards and defenses set in place so the wanderer could heal in peace rather than worry over what lurked in the woods.

Nursing him back to health and protecting him as she did so was something she’d been more than willing to do, especially once he stopped fighting her on it. Once he recovered, he could be on his way, and they would never have to see one another again. His health improved, but he refused to leave her side, insisting instead that he owed her a debt and he would not leave until that debt was paid off. Faye didn’t see it that way. She saw her kindness as just that--kindness. Kratos saw it as a service that he could never repay because she saved him.

Until the day came that he did repay her, defending her from a freak accident that otherwise might have ended in the loss of her life. His debt repaid, he no longer had reason to tie himself to her, and yet... he stayed. At least, when Faye voiced that he didn’t have to go, that if he wished to stay with her, she would enjoy his continued companionship. From there, their relationship seemed to grow more intimate.

While Kratos always seemed to enjoy her stories and took solace in her voice filling the trees, they’d never tipped too far over the edge. She’d admit to a certain attraction... the type that had her yearning, though she hadn’t readily admitted it. She felt that he may very well feel the same, but his emotional range seemed more or less nonexistent. Pushing it might have driven him away or made their travels unnecessarily tense, but from the moment that Kratos decided to stay with her without being bound by a debt he owed? 

Considering very little time actually passed between Kratos agreeing to stay and their naked body moving together in harmony, illuminated only by their campfire and the moonlight? It was safe enough to say that their relationship took a very violent shove into something more serious, or at the very least, something more intimate. Faye wasn’t sure Kratos quite knew how to love, though. He’d been deeply wounded by something--or many somethings--in his past that made it difficult to break through the hardened shell he built around himself to protect his core.

Over time, though, despite there never being verbal confirmation, Laufey knew her feelings for Kratos were very real and oh so very intense. Love, she dared to think, but never had the nerve to utter such a thing aloud. More for fear of scaring him off than anything, she decided to firmly keep such a confession to herself. She knew, sooner or later, she would have to admit it. If Kratos was the man she’d seen in her visions, the future father of her child... He would have to know eventually, but waiting for the right time to drop such a thing seemed with how delicate pieces of their relationship seemed. Both so strong and so fiercely determined to make it in this world, one way or another, it seemed almost laughable that parts of their connection still seemed so fragile.

Never, though, did she truly expect Kratos to be the one to say it first, though.

She sat next to their fire late that night. Late enough that they probably should have both been asleep by then, but they’d gotten a late start to dinner due to more... pressing activities that took priority once they made camp and settled in for the night. They did work up quite an appetite, though, so Faye set out to roast a few sizeable pieces of the deer they took down during their hunting adventure.

Wrapped in little more than a blanket, she sat on a log she’d conjured for convenience and comfort, turning the roasting meat over the fire to ensure an even cook on all sides. Kratos finished setting up the last of their perimeter before settling in beside her. He’d grown rather confident in sharing close spaces with her, so he wasted little time in wrapping two strong arms around her midsection as she prepared their late supper. 

“I... love you. I just wanted to tell you that.”

Both of her hands paused and her emerald eyes rounded in surprise as the words sank in. Kratos wasn’t much for conversation. He loved listening to her talk and he hung onto every word she said, but he wasn’t always the best when it came to speaking his mind or elaborating on his feelings. She never minded. He spoke enough to satisfy her and if he had something he wished to say, something he felt important, he would say it, but emotions were a difficult enough thing for him to express in action, so to openly confess to them? If she hadn’t already been sitting, she might have fallen over, and even now, with Kratos’ arms around her, she felt like she might still slip off the log she perched herself on.

As shocking as the statement was, though, she knew it must have been weighing on his mind and heart for quite some time, and it was important enough that he felt she needed to know.

“I--” she murmured, stuttering over what she wanted to say in an endearing but almost uncharacteristic fashion. Gods, she’d never imagined what love could truly feel like. She always worried after seeing those visions that the person she met who would eventually have a child with her would never feel organic, that their love wouldn’t be real, or worse, wouldn’t exist at all. What did she know about being in love with someone? She never had been, before now. Infatuation, sure, but love?

Turning enough to face him, she left the deer roasting without proper supervision. If it burned, it burned, plain and simple. “I know,” she finally murmured. “I’ve known for quite some time and I’ve known even longer how I feel about you in turn. I--” Even though it was already out in the open, she found it difficult to say it. Why? It should have been the easiest thing in the world.

“I love you too, Kratos,” she murmured, allowing the blanket to fall away from her naked shoulders so she could easily wrap her arms around his neck without potentially tangling them in the fabric. “I love you too,” she repeated. “I just wasn’t sure when would be the appropriate time to say it, I just never imagined I’d be beaten to the punch.”
