#he and atreus share a brain cell

I wish we could have seen more of these guys just hanging out. Absolute just ‘guys being dudes’ energy and I was living for it.

Just putting together who is reincarnated/possessed by whom in the AC/GoW AU…

Eivor/Odin: The first piece of his soul enters Eivor via the wolf after over a century of passing through other hosts. He waits until she’s an adult to start his grand plan of taking over her body.

Sigurd/Freyr: Sigurd wouldn’t even go on a power trip here. Him and Freyr both are leaders, but they leave the heavy lifting to their sisters (and also wife in Sigurd’s case) who often have to bail them out of their messes. Freyr is trying to correct that in Sigurd, though. You can still lead and have fun, y’know. You gotta balance it. Sigurd is a lot more chill, though that might have something to do with all the herbs he’s been trying out.

Halfdan/Thor: Same as in game. He’s depressed, not because his glory days are behind him, but because he really misses Sif and Thrud. He knows they’re out there, but he can’t find them. He doesn’t care about raiding and alliances, he’s just wants his family back.

Ubba/Baldur: Calmed down significantly after the curse was broken. He’s largely content with this second chance at life and doesn’t wish to associate with his previous life. He’s done with Asgard. It’s better to die young as a mortal and feel than to live forever feeling nothing at all.

Ivarr/Heimdall: The most obnoxious and smug of both sets of brothers, it just fits. Unlike Ubba and Halfdan, Ivarr has embraced being Heimdall. He has long believed that Odin will return to restore their godhood and rebuild Asgard. Was disappointed it was not Ragnar and labels him an imposter. He’s become even more violent since his loss to Kratos. He tries to kill Ceolbert because he reminds him so much of Atreus, who he loathes.

Broder and Brothir/Magni and Modi: All four of them share only one brain cell.

Kratos and Kassandra IS THAT GOW AC ODYSSEY CROSSOVER 👀?

It is! Since I have a single brain cell and it is dedicated to loving Kassandra, I have the bad habit of watching a movie/reading a book/playing a game and immediately thinking “But what if Kassandra was there?” And sometimes that question results in a fic!

Usually I come up with a better explanation as to why/how Kassandra shows up, but ultimately I decided for my sanity that Kassandra should just get yeeted into a parallel world and we should all just go on from there. Also Ikaros is still alive and Aletheia gets fucked ✌🏼

This fic starts a couple centuries post Odyssey and a little bit before GoW Ragnarok and is my third attempt at writing a crossover fic featuring my two favorite Spartans. It’s still in the outline stage and is slowly being refined as I replay Ragnarok, although I’ve kinda put that playthrough on pause to play the Valhalla DLC, but I have a couple lines and super tiny scenes scattered throughout! Here’s one!

He is grateful that the woman does not share the name of his wife or daughter, but Kassandra is similar enough to Lysandra that he struggles not to flinch every time Atreus or Mimir says her name.
