Odin and his children

@ringofthenibelung-blog Sorry, going to have to answer your comment here, because I needed more room XD

So YES, as you said, Odin was just as unfaithful as Zeus (and consent? What's that? ^^' Those two would have been buddies ^^')

Good thing Frigg did not care XD (Most likely happy to live her own life while her hubby was "busy" ^^')... and it's not as if she had been faithful either (I mean, she DID sleep with his brothers, after all XD)

But let's go back to Odin and his children and who their mothers were.

So we've got Baldr & Hodr Their mother was Frigg.

Hermod, we're not sure. Sometimes he's a son of Odin and Frigg. Sometimes he's seen as a servant... ^^' In some sources, he's a hero, in another (I think in Beowolf?) he was a Danish king. So who knows? But he is listed as a son of Odin (maybe adopted???), so yeah. He still got his place in this list.

Meili, mother unknown, but he's listed as a son of Odin and a brother to Thor and Baldr. Víðarr, his mother was the giantess Grindr

Nepr (aka Nanna's dad... which means that yes, Baldr married his niece ^^'). His mother was unknown.

Váli, whose mom was the giantess Rindr (raped by Odin ^^')... also named after the kid Odin had turned into a wolf ^^'

Thor, as we all know, his mother was Jord.

Hildólfr, mother unknown

Sigi (ancestor of the Völsung lineage) mother unknown

Skjöldr (ancestor to the Danish royal line), mother unknown

Ítreksjóð, listed as one of Odin's sons in the Eddas (Skáldskaparmál), but we don't know much about him

Heimdallr, his mom was one of Aegir's nine daughters... which one, though? XD Some tales will tell you "all of them", and they were all "maidens"... hu huh...

Sæmingr, one of the sons Odin had with Skadi - became the founder of the Swedish royal line. Some sources say Odin had 4 sons with Skadi, other only say 4. I mean, 4 is already many XD

Bragi, Idunn's husband, and ... we're not sure about his mother. Some say it's Frigg, but then it does not seem Frigg care much about him XD Other say his mother was mortal, and since he did spend some time in Midgard as a mortal (or under a mortal name), I'd say it's more than probable. There is also the theory about Gunnload who she guards the mead of poetry.... her being Bragi's mom would makes sense.

Tyr : quite the mystery with that one XD Because we know historically speaking, Tyr has been there for as long as (if not longer than) Odin, however, some sources say he was a son of Odin (though not the Eddas' list). We also know he had a Giant father (who was eventually killed by Thor). So what? ^^' Was this a MCU!Loki case, where Tyr was raised by Odin thinking he was his father, only to find out it was not the case? Or did Odin's mistress make him believe the child was his, until it was obvious he was 100% Jotun? XDXD (I mean, with Odin as the father, he would still have been 75% Jotun, just like Thor and many other of Odin's sons ^^')

The potential daughters

We're not sure about that, as there is no list, only rumours and theories ^^'

Gersemi and Hnoss: Freya's daughters. Some say they were fathered by Freya's beloved husband Odr. Some say Odr is Odin (my theory is that he's Hoenir, as Hoenir gave "odr" to the mortals, and he became King of Vanaheim after the Vanir wars... but again, that's just my theory XD). Some scholars also believe they did not exist and were only created because of a bad translation ^^' (because of that last point, and seeing how Sigyn is called "Loki's treasure"- Hnoss & Gersemi's names meaning "treasure" and "jewel"- it is a possibility that Sigyn is one of them, or the both of them being names of endearment from her mother... But once again, this is only a theory)

Saga: No one know who her mother is. Some people actually believe she is another name for Frigg, but it's not certain, as she had a hall of her own (not Fensallir), and Odin is said to be very close to her, as a father would be to his favourite daughter, drinking together and sharing stories. (Daddy's girl, in other words XD)

Sigyn: It is a possibility, as Sigyn's name means "Friend of Victory", and one of Odin's kennings is "Father of Victory". However, I prefer to see them as stepfather and stepdaughter (mostly knowing what he does to Vali & Narvi afterwards ^^'), with Freya being her mother (once again, just a theory, since we don't know for sure who her mother is). I have seen around the theory that Sol and Volundr were her parents. I also have seen in a book about Loki (by Dagulf Loptson) the theory that Odin coud be her father and her mother would be one of the Norns.

Possible, but with Sigyn being associated with Victory and Love (fidelity), Freya (being the Goddess of War and Love) as her mother makes the most sense to me.

If I forgot someone, please, fell free to add, I'm sick and tired and my brain is not working very well right now XD

Eyes

Anya, Sigi, Klaus and Dobromiev belong to @corneille-but-not-the-author

I like

Looking at people’s eyes

When they're not looking into mine

I remember once

I told Bronya about it

She said

(I quote)

“Is that your love language or some shit”

And I wonder

Maybe it is? Maybe it isn't

Either way I like looking at people’s eyes

Especially when it's people I like

Anya’s eyes are blue and bright

Like the sun

I know the sun isn't blue

But they’re blue like the sea when the sun shines right into it

That's what I mean

Since I'm staying at her place for the time being

I have all the time in the world to look

Her eyes are very expressive

You can tell how she feels right away

Even if sometimes they get cloudy

Full of a sadness just as deep as the sea of her irises

A sadness I can't even begin to understand

But I don't need to understand

She isn’t asking me to

Sometimes her eyes meet mine

They catch me staring

And the waves in them recede a little and she laughs and asks me if she has something on her face

Once I replied

A smile?

And it made her giggle

And I lost myself in her face again

Eyes blue

Like the Atlantic

And I'm going down

Like the Titanic

I drew her in my notebook

Pencil and blue watercolor

I didn't show her yet

I don't want her to think I'm creepy

Maybe I'll give it to her for her birthday

I don't know her birthday

Klaus saw the drawing I think because he passed behind me as I was working on it

Maybe I should ask him

Or Dobromiev

Anya’s very curious about the notebook

But I can't say anything about it

Not yet

Maybe when I'm ready

I’m not used to the light

But I'd let the sun burn my skin just so I could look at it

I'm scared

I've never fallen from quite this high

Fallin' into your ocean eyes

I know I can't live here forever

I know you can't sleep next to me forever

I know I'll have to go back there

But I want you to look at me

Longer

Longer

I'm a moth

You're the flame

I’m a fish on dry land

You're the waves on the shore

I need you

Even if you don't

Need me

Maybe

If I can stand up on my own

Be someone I can be proud of

Maybe

I'll be brave enough to show you

In the meantime

I'll just practice

To be worthy

Of you

Don’t wanna leave you anymore

Oh darling all of the city lights

Never shined as bright as your eyes

Hold me in your gaze

Let me stay by you

Where I feel safe

They say eyes are the mirrors of the soul

Maybe that's why I like looking at them

But some eyes haunt you

Because they’re mirrors

But they mirror you

Not the person they belong to

Sigismund’s eyes

Are exactly like that

His pupils are wide and reflect my face

His soul is in the little space left for his irises

Blue

Deep

Unreachable

Cramped

Looking in your eyes

I’m coming home

I look into your eyes and I see

Someone just like me

But not me

Someone who doesn’t fit into themselves

Someone trying to be someone else

Who are you?

Who are you, really?

Won't you let me know?

I want

To know

I look into your eyes and I'm not afraid

But you don’t let me see you

When I try to draw you

It’s never quite right

The eyes look too shallow

Or too deep

Too painful?

There is pain in those eyes though

Pain echoing mine

If I should ask

Or just imply

That I wanted a bit more light

So I could look inside his eyes

And get

The colors just right

Sometimes there is hate when he looks at me

But I know hate

This is not hate directed towards me

Am I a mirror you can’t bear to look at?

Do you want to break me?

(Maybe I'd let you)

There’s a thread between us

You have the scissors in hand

You just can’t bring yourself to cut it

And I keep pulling on it

To try and bring you closer

Before you get lost

And you'd say you love hate me and look in my eyes

But I know through mine you were looking in yours

I've received your gift

Your letter

Said it made you think of me

I crossed your mind

It makes me so happy

I hope I can gift you something in return

Even if you need more than what I can give you

I hope one day you can rest those eyes

I hope you let me hold

A bit of your pain

(I hope you let me hold you)
