Btw shout out to my awesome friend Autumn for suggesting the ship name warlight because of the second definition!!!
I figured out you can touch Týr inappropriately in GOW RagnarÜk, specifically in Midgard when he stands behind a pile of snow.
It's not easy to accomplish but basically you side step into the gap between Týr and the pile of snow. Once in the small space Kratos hit box overlaps with Týr, causing him to shake in place.
Down below is physical evidence of this bullshit taking place but I'm not sure if it'll be patched out in the future.
you do realise that ancient greeks were often dark skinned and had curly hair right? that doesn't make them black, they're GREEK with mediterranian features. that's how greek people looked like. you can't be 23 years old and genuinely think like this holy shit. i don't think you understand how racist that is
You're right, I don't understand... how someone can send a passive aggressive message like this, to a black person on Black History Month.
I can tell you're obviously upset and offended by my Afro-Greek Kratos headcanon but choosing to be anonymous and disrespectful says a lot more about you, then me.
If you didn't make negative assumptions about me, you would have realized that I'm open to having civil conversations, discussing Kratos' racial ambiguity.
Sadly you're not a calm and reasonable person, so I'm not even going to explain myself or entertain you. Be better.
It breaks my heart how young Deimos resembles Atreus & has a very similar personality to him!!! If only he was still alive, they would get along perfectly!!! đđ
Shout out to the God of War: Sons of Sparta artists for making Calliope look more related to Kratos!!! I absolutely love how she has her father's amber eye color!!! đĽšđ
Food is a shared love language between both Gods, so they both cook together. If Kratos can find the correct ingredients, then he surprises Týr by making Greek meals.
Týr has all types of tea for Kratos to help him relax and loves to shares different cultural recipes from across the world.
After days of harassing Kratos, Týr finally is able to convince him to do yoga. Kratos makes a valiant effort to be open-minded but he does not enjoy it. In the end Týr accepts this and is just glad that he tried.
Another thing Týr introduces to Kratos is meditation and mindfulness, which at first he doesn't see the value but soon ends up appreciating it. The Spartan even uses it sometimes but only if his usual ways of calming down doesn't work.
Despite generally not talking about his past, Kratos enjoys teaching Týr things about his homeland, like Greek words or fighting techniques like Pankration. He especially finds it charming how Týr accent shows when he speaks Greek.
Both bond over there love for collecting artifacts. Specifically Týr shows Kratos the clothes gifted to him from the country's he visted. At first it doesn't fully interest Kratos, until Týr walks out in a Himation. This pleasantly suprises and arouses him, to see the man wearing his homeland's fashion.
They train and workout together. Týr likes to bring friendly competition and always tries to outdo Kratos. He doesn't always win but he has fun anyway.
Once in a while when the weather is right, Týr and Kratos bathe together in a hot spring found in the wilderness of Midgard because they can't normally bathe together in-doors. The act of washing each other unravels bitter-sweet memories for the Spartan and makes him think of Atreus of Sparta but he's able to push that aside to enjoy the present.
The Fluff
Kratos is enamored with Týr's hair. He especially enjoys seeing him wear a bun or ponytail. Eventually Týr notices this and offers the Spartan to comb or braid it whenever he please.
Kratos blushing is extremely difficult to see because of the layers of ash on his skin but Týr notices the subtle change in his cheek colors.
Týr on the other hand, blushes fairly easily and it's becomes more noticeable when his whole face, ears, and shoulders turn pink.
Týr bifrost eyes subtlely glow when happy or excited but gets darker when he's sad or afraid.
The Angst
Kratos has an irrational fear of Týr losing feelings for him or getting bored and leaving to travel because he struggles to accept the Aseir's unconditional love. While Týr has a rational fear of losing Kratos because once he was free from imprisonment, everyone he knew either died or forgot about him.
Both feel eternally grateful to one another, that the other saved them. As Týr mentality heals Kratos in Valhalla, while Kratos physically rescued Týr from imprisonment.
Both struggle with rest. Kratos has insomnia and is a light sleeper because he was conditioned to always be ready for battle. While Týr struggles to stay asleep, as he is haunted by nightmares of waking back in his jail cell.
As a result of Týr's century long imprisonment, he developed claustrophobia and gets anxious if he stays in-doors for long periods of time.
Also Týr is touched starved because of the painful isolation. Now he's much more clingy then he would normally be pre-imprisonment.
Another result of Týr's imprisonment was torture scars. Specifically deep flogging slashes on his back from Odin's magical whip. The All-Father intentionally targeted the spine because his son enjoys yoga, so now it would hurt constantly. Not only that but the scars didn't heal properly because the Aesir had no medical attention.
This caused the usually confident Týr to develop a insecurity about the scars, since he felt shameful by how his father branded him.
Unfortunately Týr didn't tell anyone about this and kept it hidden. However that changed when he meets Kratos because he knows the Spartan has ugly scars of his own and will not judge.
Ultimately with time and trust, Kratos is able to see Týr at his most vulnerable and clean his back injuries. Which is a impactful bonding moment for both of them.
The Beginning & The Realization
In Valhalla many intense fights unfold but when things get too close and too sexually charged, they freeze, separate, and immediately pretend nothing happened.
Lots of subconscious lingering touches happen. Like Týr and Kratos holding a handshake for a few seconds too long or Týr placing his hand on Kratos shoulder and leaving it there for a while.
I'm not sure what the specific trigger will be but eventually Kratos realizes that he never had another sparing partner since Atreus of Sparta. Also before Valhalla, the Spartan was fighting only for survival or protection but now he's able to fight for the love of combat.
Another thing Kratos notices is that Atreus of Sparta was his first and last boyfriend. Sure, he engagements with men since then but it was few a far in-between. Since Ancient Greece was strongly homophobic and Scandinavia wasn't any better.
All of these new feelings manifested physically in Valhalla. First it showed as a mysterious Corinthian Helmet in the scrying pool, then in the inner reaches Kratos entered a new era. It was a battlefield where Atreus of Sparta died and he was surrounded by enemies. Suddenly Kratos knew who this was about and immediately panicked, getting forced out of Valhalla.
For the first time in a long time, Kratos felt genuine dread and fear. So he frantically picked up MĂmir, got on the boat, and pushed his way off the black shores. The head obviously knew something was wrong but could tell by Kratos blank stare, that he wasn't fully present. So he allowed the Spartan to row in silence and bring them home.
Once in the safe and private confined of the Cabin did MĂmir confront Kratos about what happened. It certainly wasn't easy for the Spartan but eventually he told everything to the head. Ironically MĂmir already figured out that Kratos liked TĂ˝r but decided to hold back the "I knew it". Instead, he helped his friend and encouraged him to confess to TĂ˝r.
After a few weeks of completely avoiding Valhalla and the complications within it Kratos returned. With MĂmir's emotional support, he managed to get back to the battle ground, fight off the hoards of enemies, and be there to hold the warrior when Atreus of Sparta died instead of being too late.
This pleased Valhalla and allowed Kratos to finally reach Týr in the Tholos arena. Naturally the Aesir doesn't want to fight, since he hasn't seen the Spartan in weeks and is deeply concerned. Unfortunately Kratos can't communicate normally, so he begins to attack Týr. Literally and physically fighting his bisexual thoughts.
Soon Kratos ends up winning but once seeing his opponents on the floor, beaten and bloody yet still smiling. It instantly makes the Spartan confess his feelings.
A lot of things happen afterwards that I haven't fully figured out but basically Týr feels the same way, accepts the confession, and Kratos apologizies and patches up the injuries.
Dating Life
Kratos and Týr both agree immediately to not label themselves because they want to take things slow. So their relationship is not public and only a few people even know because they prefer to keep things private.
Later on, they do end up becoming official but they still don't do public displays of affection because they're both reserved. However they do small shows of affection, like placing a hand on the shoulder or Kratos giving yearning stares and Týr smiling at him.
On a rare occasion when Kratos is feeling bold, he'll very non-chalantly hold Týr hand or interwind there fingers. Also sometimes when Kratos is sitting down and feels exhausted, he'll leans his weight on Týr.
In private Kratos adores cuddling and being the small spoon, since Týr being much larger makes him feel safe. However he'll never verbally ask to be held because he's too prideful. So Kratos just stand closer and gives Týr a look that says everything.
In general Kratos main love language is acts of service and physical touch. While Týr main love language is words of affirmation and quality time.
Týr enjoys calling Kratos pet names and is a little bit possessive. Some examples are sweet Spartan or my Spartan, my warrior, my strength, my treasure, my partner, my dearest or just my dear.
On the other hand, Kratos doesn't use pet names and just calls Týr by his name and on occasion calls him Northerner or partner. Also although Kratos know Týr is more then capable of defending himself, he can't help his instincts to be protective.
Meeting the Family
Both deeply relate to one another because of there dysfunctional families and terrible fathers Zeus and Odin.
Although Týr knows most of Kratos homeland family is dead, he still wished he could have met Kratos' mother Castillo, brother Deimos, wife Lysandra, and children Calliope & Pandora.
Thankfully Atreus is alive but since he left Midgard, it takes a few years until Týr can see him. However he has heard many stories of Atreus and admires the wonderful young man Kratos has raised.
Eventually when they meet one another, Atreus is very shocked but then becomes excited, as he realizes his childhood hero is alive. Immediately he asks Týr millions of questions and the God laughs as he enjoys the boy's enthusiasm. Kratos watches the interaction with satisfaction but soon that joy fades into anxiety, as he only introduced Týr as a comrade.
After giving his son a few days to process everything he missed, Kratos takes Atreus on a walk in the Wildwoods and sits on a log near a river. Once Atreus sits down, Spartan takes the peaceful moment to carefully explain that in his absence, he felt lonely and found someone else, and that person is Týr.
Atreus is stunned and confused at first but once Kratos elaborates that Týr will never replace the love he has for Faye. The boy starts to relax and accept the relationship because he doesn't want his father to stay stuck grieving his mother.
Slowly the fact that his father is dating the legendary Týr sinks in and Atreus starts to feel giddy by how surreal it all is. Although he never imagine his father being with another person, he couldn't be happier that his father is with his childhood hero. So Atreus decides to ressure Kratos by telling him that "If anyone would be worthy of his father's love, it's Týr."
Thrúd like everyone else, is naturally shocked by the reveal but immediately become supportive since she wants her uncle Týr to be happy. Plus she likes Kratos and admires his strength. So Thrúd has no problem with them dating.
Unfortunately the same cannot be said for Sif, since she doesn't like Kratos and always will hold a grudge for the God who killed her son. Therefore she took offense by the news, feeling betrayed and disturbed that Týr would date someone who killed his brothers. However despite disapproving the relationship, she's convinced by Thrúd to behave cordial. Only for the sake of keeping the peace.
Married Life
After being together for multiple years, Kratos realizes he wants to take things further with TĂ˝r and marry him but is nervous to propose, so with MĂmir's assistance and encouragement he does it.
Týr is shocked and slightly hesitant at first because he's never been married but then decides to accepts it because he trusts and loves Kratos.
On the day of the wedding, it's was a small private event as only friends and family were invited. Also the wedding was a beautiful mixture of both Greek and Norse tradition.
The wedding happened in autumn, which is a small reference to Zisa. She's the Goddess of harvest who is theorized to be mythology Týr's wife.
Týr was naturally great with kids but never desired having a family. Mainly because he was always focus on exploring the world and having his own independent life.
However that changed when Týr became married to Kratos because once he met Atreus, he began to understand the joys of children and slowly warmed up to the idea of having a family.
While building his son in law relationship with Atreus, Týr never acted like his parent because he respected Faye and didn't want to overstep boundaries. So in general Týr acted more like a mentor towards Atreus because he was friendly, compassionate, and gave advice.
Eventually as time went on, Atreus bonded more with Týr and started to view him as a parental figure. One day he accidentally called Týr dad and that made the God almost tear up because he was honored to be his step-father.
