⏝◞⠀ྀི synopsis: thorkell x gn!reader headcannons

⨟ cw — gender neutral reader, fluffy headcannons ♡ྀི

𓏴 ꕀ thorkell is massive compared to you, and he loves it. he’ll constantly compare your hands to his or just grab your whole face with one hand and laugh like he’s discovered something amazing.

𓏴 ꕀ super obvious with affection. he’ll throw an arm around you in front of everyone, toss you over his shoulder without warning, or just plop you down in his lap like you weigh nothing.

𓏴 ꕀ he’s not the best at “soft” gestures, but he tries in his own way. his version of comforting you is ruffling your hair, booming out that “everything’ll be fine!” and pulling you into one of his crushing hugs.

︵︵ sometimes thorkell gets so caught up in the chaos of a fight that he forgets just how scary he looks. you’ve had to tug on his sleeve more than once, reminding him to tone it down before he accidentally terrifies an ally. the first time you did it, he just blinked down at you and barked out a laugh. “scary, me? nah—look at this face!” he grinned wide, bloody and wild-eyed, and you couldn’t help rolling your eyes. “exactly,” you muttered.

𓏴 ꕀ no concept of personal space whatsoever. if he’s tired, he’s laying on top of you. if he’s excited, he’s scooping you up and spinning you around. if he wants your attention, he’ll literally block your view until you give it to him.

𓏴 ꕀ loves bragging about you to literally anyone who will listen. mercenaries, enemies, random farmers—doesn’t matter. they’ll know you exist and that thorkell thinks you’re the greatest thing alive.

𓏴 ꕀ he secretly likes when you fuss over his injuries. he’ll pretend it’s nothing, but deep down he melts when you scold him for being reckless while wrapping his wounds.

︵︵ after a long battle, thorkell finally flopped down on the grass beside you, groaning dramatically. “ahhh, i’m exhausted. but i fought well, didn’t i?” he turned his head toward you with a grin, expecting praise. when you only raised a brow and started dabbing at the cut on his cheek, his grin softened. he sat there, strangely quiet, watching you work. “…you’re real gentle, y’know that?” he rumbled, voice unusually low, before chuckling and tugging you into his chest.

Could you do hc or scenario for thorkell with an extremely affectionate SO? Like loves PDA and giving him pet names and cuddles

It’s like looking himself in the mirror 🪞

gives the same energy back but times a 100. 😭 (he’s pushing 60 giving PDA-who’s going to check him is the question?? No one. ((Maybe Asgeir))

Pet names? “What is it love bug?” Or “whatever is wrong buttercup? What can your knight in shining armor do for you?” You see? He gives it back and he can be a little dramatic sometimes but most of the time he’s just matching his beloved’s energy.

An extremely affectionate s/o doesn’t turn him off in the slightest. It actually has a opposite affect because he knows his s/o is loyal and he values that in a s/o.

Holding hands? Go for it ♥️ kissing him after battle? Kissing him during battle (would be after)? But go for it! He loves it.

If others don’t like it Thorkell will either scoop his s/o in his arms and take them somewhere private. But depending on who it is he’s just going to tell them “Mind your business.” And continues to kiss his s/o and they both make out right there. (If the s/o so chooses. Thorkell never disrespects his s/o)

Cuddles are a thing and he’s really big and warm 🔥 so on cold nights especially he doesn’t mind. He snores a bit once he falls asleep but that’s okay 👌🏻

How the VS men react when their s/o has baby fever

Setting: modern au

Warnings: Babies. All things babies.

A/N: I have baby fever so-

🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼

Doesn’t think much at first, until his s/o mentions it to him again.

Then he’s like: 👀👀👀👀 “You’re serious.”

Plays along and sends his s/o pictures of babies being cute or little cute onesies. (Like bears.)

Bjorn wants a little girl btw.

Is baby fever contagious? Because after awhile Bjorn has it.

Wants to put his children in bear onesies and record the whole thing. 🐻♥️

One big happy bear family.

Oh no.

One mention about babies and Thorkell is all over it. ✨

S/o can send him all the baby pictures/video/stuff to buy all they want because Thorkell wants children.

Seeing this giant man baby talk is a sight. 😩♥️♥️

His s/o shouldn’t be surprised to come home and Thorkell teases them with a baby rattle.

“See? Look how cute!”

Wants a football team of babies btw. Adopted or not.

Baby fever is contagious and Thorkell falls prey easily here ♥️♥️

This man won’t catch any baby fever whatsoever.

….At first.

Give him time and he’ll slowly come around.

Like Thorkell, Askeladd teases his s/o by sending cute baby videos or adorable onesies.

Adds to the baby fever by saying “our baby will have the most adorable eyebrows.” and his s/o gets so excited and finds it a bit humorous as well.

If his mother Lydia gets wind that his s/o has baby fever, then he’ll never hear the end of it.

“We should get a baby crib.”

“Today? Now?”

“I’ll get the car ready!”

Lydia will suggest getting a baby crib, Askeladd is confused, while his s/o starts the car.

Askeladd will say he wants one baby… but he could squeeze two or three.

Vinland Saga men

S/O baby cousin keeps throwing toys at them

Author’s note: I finally was able to see my little cousin and…found out every toy she picks up she throws at everyone. She’s really cute but she throws everything so… 😂

Part two

CW: baby slobber

Papa bear 🐻

Honestly, he thinks it’s fun.

Bjorn likes to play catch with the small one. Considers it as the small one being active.

Bjorn has fallen asleep and has been hit with a toy…with slobber. Bjorn never called for his s/o so quick. ( 😆 )

It doesn’t take long for the small one to stop throwing stuff unnecessarily and honestly Bjorn is grateful because he’s a bit quicker with dodging.

Sighs.

Throw the kid away

Quick reflexes and always catches whatever toy the small one throws. Askeladd even throws it back.

Askeladd mentions this little habit to his s/o. But that’s about it.

Keeps all sharp objects away from the small one.

Askeladd hates when slobber is on the toy and he catches it. ( 😂 )

Likes to distract the small one with other things like taking the small one out and about. Modern au wise he would turn on the television or play music 🎵.

Honestly this man doesn’t feel anything at all.

Even when he sleeps he doesn’t feel anything.

The baby cousin keeps throwing stuff at him and he just carries on like nothing happens.

Thorkell does keep sharp things away from the small one.

The small one doesn’t get too high, always hits Thorkell’s leg and maybe his hip. But he just keeps talking to his s/o like nothing is going on.

It’s only when the small one throws something at his s/o does he say something, but he doesn’t do anything. Believes his s/o can handle the small one.

Turn of events actually, he helps the small one in throwing; the two play catch nearly all day and in truth Thorkell is actually the one who manages to control the small ones throwing.

*slams cookies on table* Bjorn and Thorkell sep falling in love with a gentle foreign village maid reader! Bonus points if she is a strong independent woman and doesn’t return their affections at first because she doesn’t want a one night stand!! She wants love >:( So she rejects these huge scary Vikings and they are like *slow computer processing noises* perhaps they try and win her affection? Kidnap her? Idk. Love your blog youre amazing! I hope you are safe and healthy and happy today 💕

This has to be the most unique Vinland saga request ever❤️ also don’t slam cookies on the table ✨😆

✨TW: mentions of rape✨

Bjorn✨

The two meet in town and since then Bjorn had an interest in the maid.

Bjorn was rejected in his advance the first time, the viking was taken back.

“What’s your reason? Too soon or something?”

“Why don’t you figure it out?”

(Name) replied back as she went back to work only to frustrate Bjorn.

However, the big viking kept thinking of his interest words all thru the night.

Bjorn figures it must have had to with him being a viking and leaving.

So Bjorn made (Name) a promise that when he left he would bring back either jewelry or money so she wouldn’t have to work.

However, when Bjorn came back he came back to the village the viking came back just in time as pirates had invaded the village.

By luck and great timing did Bjorn manage to save (Name) from the pirates that were trying to rape her.

A knight in shining armor of sorts.

Bjorn certainly has the maid’s affection now.

Thorkell✨

“I don’t care how strong and powerful you are. I’m not going to be your one night-“

The maid was interrupted as the giant Thorkell stomps his foot and lays on his back kicking his feet.

Throwing a viking tantrum.

Thorkell will try to show that he’s faithful and loyal by staying beside the cute village maid all the time.

“Good night Thorkell.”

“Good night my sweet little dove.”

Thorkell waves goodnight while “acting” love struck, fluttering his eyes and blowing a kiss.

Days turn into months and Thorkell’s crew are getting restless so Thorkell has to move on but he promises the maid he’ll be back.

“Thorkell, before you leave..could I ask something of you?”

“Name it.”

“My parents are in London do you think you could give them this letter?”

Thorkell sees a folded piece of paper, he looks at it, nods his head and says his farewell.

A few months passed and Thorkell returns with a letter from (Name)’s parents.

(Name) hadn’t heard anything from her parents in some time, she was worried about them.

(Name) is honestly touched that the Viking did something so sweet.

When she gives the giant a kiss Thorkell passes out and Thorkell’s men are stunned.

“She defeated the boss!”

“Bad ass!”

“She must have the strength of the gods!”

(Name) smiles to herself knowing it wasn’t the strength of any gods, it was love.

✨Setting: canon✨

Snake thinks the shy! Niece is the cutest in the world; especially when she clings to his s/o leg.

Snake introduces himself and is understanding and sweet.

Snake knows you have to give shy children time to get know someone.

So, he just waits it out and in the meantime he is himself.

The two bond actually over Snake’s s/o.

“What do you like about (Name), Snake?”

“Hmmm..that’s a hard one. I like how kind (Name)-“

“Me too! (Name) is the sweetest.”

Snake nearly cries at how cute the niece is and the niece opens up to Snake more.

That’s when Snake starts to get a small shadow.

Badger and Fox think it’s cute when the niece follows (Name) and Snake around.

When Snake goes out for patrol, the niece and Snake actually go out stargazing.

Thorkell understands.

Thorkell is a big man so his s/o niece hiding behind the leg is understandable.

But what the niece doesn’t know is how much of a teddy bear Thorkell can be.

Thorkell tries and tries to get the niece to like him, however the niece is still shy around him.

It’s only when (Name) denies Thorkell from doing something and Thorkell throws a big man fit.

Kicking his arms and legs like a baby does the niece laugh and start to warm up to the giant viking.

“Why is he doing that?”

“Because he’s a baby sweetie.”

From that day Thorkell and the niece bond.

“Mr. Thorkell can’t you get a apple for me?”

Thorkell gasps in surprise, ever the actor, and nods his head with stars in his eyes.

Thorkell brings back a barrel of apples. The niece only wanted one but she doesn’t complain.

Soon enough, the niece may still be a bit shy but she gets a bit confidence.

“Look at how cute!”

“Adorable! The cutest girl ever!”

“Beautiful!”

Asgeir and (Name) did the niece’s hair and is showing off her braided hair to Thorkell’s men.

Who are clapping their hands and cheering. Thorkell is the biggest fan.

She’s still a bit shy but very happy.💙

Askeladd didn’t notice the niece until she peeked from behind (Name)’s leg.

When Askeladd sees the niece he tries to say hi, but she hides behind (Name)’s leg again.

Askeladd doesn’t take it too hard..Actually he does because he’s always been a charmer with the ladies.

But since the niece is young it doesn’t work as planned.

Askeladd will try to give the niece a necklace.

However, that too doesn’t work.

Askeladd’s pride is hurt.

It’s only when the niece catches (Name) and Askeladd playing hnefatafl that Askeladd manages to bond with the niece.

Askeladd let’s her win every time and compliments her on her skills.

(Name) thinks it’s sweet.

Now it’s a everyday thing the two play.

One day Bjorn catches the niece and (Name) doing Askeladd’s hair because the niece wants to become a hair dresser.

Bjorn has never laughed so hard in his life; Askeladd’s hair was in two small pig tails.

“You look pretty Mr. Askeladd.”

“Thank you, little one.”

That golden seductive fruit-eating request, can we get a version fir the VS men if you don't mind?? lmao

🍌 The King is definitely flustered and looks else where.

-I do not see it. I do not see it.

-But he sees it.

-Canute will remember it for later when the two are in private.

-doesn’t work.

-Older! Thorfinn is now so “innocent minded” not to mention slow to catch on he doesn’t notice.

-Everyone else does however.

-...

- “That banana must be awfully good, (Name). Keep up the good work.~”

-Snake can be so mature; then he can be so naughty at times.

-Snake would be naughty in this case.

-Thorkell looks and looks until eventually he does the same thing.

-“What are you doing thorkell?”

-“Enjoying this banana. I wanted to see if it was as good as you make it seem.”

-😌Someone come and get Thorkell

-Bjorn looks and looks.

-No shame in his game at all.

-“Are you getting your practice in for later?”

-Bjorn quickly regrets his words when his s/o chokes.

-Askeladd will watch just like Bjorn. Askeladd takes it way dirtier though as he drinks.

-Askeladd waits until his beloved is just about to finish eating the famous golden fruit to fluster his beloved.

-Askeladd doesn’t hold back; doesn’t hold his tongue.

-“Whenever you get done with that, you can come over here and please me.”
