A/n: wanted to make some girlfriend freya headcanons since apparently no one is doing it (¬_¬;). Anyways, reader is freya’s midgardian girlfriend ;).
♥︎ you two first met when Freya was on a journey through the nine realms and eventually arrived in Midgard. From the moment she saw you, she was immediately drawn to your kindness, compassion, and… beauty.
♥︎ after the two of you talked for a bit, Freya became intrigued by you and wanted to know more about you. So, she began visiting Midgard whenever she could and offered to take you on small dates to get to know you better, until eventually you two became more than friends.
♥︎ At the start of the relationship, she was a little shy and awkward. Giving her a compliment was almost her biggest fear, as she would blush furiously and stutter a lot. Considering it was her first time with a woman, she wasn’t quite sure how to act.
♥︎ but as time went by, she found herself becoming more comfortable around you and eventually asked if you’d like to come live with her in Vanaheim (which you obviously agreed to).
♥︎ She would take you all across her realm, showing you where she was born, where she and her brother used to play, where her people trained, feasted, and celebrated, and even Vanaheim’s most sacred places.
♥︎ she shows her love through the simplest things. She’ll hold your hand as you travel together, move a little closer when sitting beside you, make you homemade soup despite being a terrible cook, let you lean against her, and take care of you when you’re sick.
♥︎ Freya loves a good time with you. She would often challenge you to races, with the loser having to clean both of your armor. Though it was unfair, because she’d always cheat by using her valkyrie wings to get to the finish line. Even then, she would never admit that it was cheating despite all your protests.
♥︎ And oh, she’d definitely tease you a lot. She would poke your side unexpectedly, point out when you get shy after a compliment with a smirk on her face, and gives you the knowing look whenever you messed something up and thought no one noticed. All that just to see you get flustered.
♥︎ her favorite cuddling position is when you lie on top of her while she buries her face into your neck and wraps her arms around your waist.
♥︎ she always has to lean down a little when she kisses you ( that woman is 6’2 ⊙ω⊙ ).
♥︎ Freya is a very patient person. She’d listen to you complain and spill your heart out all day long. She loves the fact that you feel safe enough to open up to her about personal stuff, and she would most definitely sort out whatever problem you have.
♥︎ she didn’t know what a period was since she was a goddess and never experienced it. Needless to say, she was freaking out when she saw the pool of blood on the fur beneath you after waking up next to you. She kept insisting that she had to take a look at it, but it turned into a two-hour session of trying to explain the concept of periods to her.
♥︎ sometimes, when you’re feeling lazy and refuse to get up, she’ll throw you over her shoulder and carry you outside.
♥︎ one of her favorite activities is lying beside you on the grass at midnight while everyone else at the camp is asleep, gently running her fingers through your hair and gazing at Vanaheim’s night sky until you both fall asleep.
♥︎ no matter how much she loves you, she could never commit to a marriage. After all that she endured in her past marriages, the thought of being bound to someone again is something she cant bring herself to do. Of course, she knows you would never hurt her or break her heart but she’d rather keep the relationship as it is.
Ugh it was better in my head(⋟﹏⋞). I felt like we needed more of freya on here :3
But Freya preening the wings of a winged reader? I would context if it's romantic or platonic is entirely up to you!!
Camaraderie Amongst Valkyries
[GN!Reader]
[Warnings: Like, none?]
[AN: you guys don't realize how much I love God of War!! Lil tidbit, I worship and work with Freyja. I have uh, admittedly been slacking on my deity work so this is just a love letter to her,,,,,,]
[Reblogs are appreciated!]
The Queen of the Valkyries is surprisingly less formal than you had expected her to be. When Odin had recruited you from your mortal life to be one of the newest Valkyries to grace the gleaming halls of Asgard, you'd been more than honored.
You grew up a young fledgling hearing stories of them just waiting to take flight alongside them. They were the mistresses of war themselves, choosing who would go to Folkvangr or Valhalla - what a privilege! And here you were, chosen by Odin himself, to serve under his queen Freya.
You expected a lady of regal standing who had little time to work alongside those who she ruled over, but instead, you were faced with a goddess of true beauty. She was kind, and caring, witty and oh so sharp, but understood her power above you. She protected her sisters, and now that you were one of them, she protected you.
"Hold still," she chuckles, her voice sweet like honey and smoother than silk. "I know that it's a new sensation but it has to be done! I will not let a Valkyrie show themself with unpreened wings." Her fingers grip the special fish-bone comb, beak shaped for optimal usage, with a certain ease as she glides them through your long feathers.
She's gifted you the wings of a Tawny Eagle, something gorgeous in their own right. You adore them. It was a gift better than your wildest dreams. She had given you something truly beautiful.
"I don't know how you deal with these things," you playfully complain.
Freya laughs softly and shakes her head. "I have had my wings for centuries! You have only had them for a few months. In time, you will grow into them." She gently pats your shoulder as she continues to move the fish-bone comb through the tangled feathers on your back as the scent of the naturally sweet smelling oils they produce spread further across them. "They suit you well."
You smile softly at her maternal love shining through and nod. "If you say so," you reply as you stretch and fan your wings out a bit further for her, making the process just that much easier.
The dark haired goddess chuckles and nods. "I know so."
With a silly grin on your lips, you lean your head back slightly and relax, enjoying how her warm, gentle hands gingerly handle each individual feather. Though it's soft and barely audible, you can hear her humming. It's something old and ancient, whispers like the wind as it twirls between the trees, soft like moss, and smells like the earth after it's rained. Vanir, no doubt, and a sign of her growing love for you.
The men in black would be a legit fear for Freya because she spends a lot of time stargazing so if she encounters a UFO you’d better believe she’d be terrified of getting a visit from the men in black.
