In the year 2249, Simon Eclair is as follows;
-Not in the mood
-A freaking mess
-Confused
She has just been accepted into Valhalla; a school in which exclusively wealthy citizens attend to become powerful military officers, soldiers, or clever politicians in service of her nation, Tiriaq.
The only issue is that Simon is not rich, nor has her family ever had a history of military activity. She is almost certain she is dreaming.
But Simon knows this is very much real when a military squad knocks on her door and escorts her to Valhalla.
Simon must learn to fit in with the upper class, and figure out exactly why she's here.
However; at the same time, a threat to Valhalla and Tiriaq lies inside the very same corridors as Simon. Can she figure out who - or what - is behind the growing fear, or will she find something much larger to fear instead?

"Goddess of the Shieldmaiden" A Vikings x MCU Romance Crossover
When Odin banishes his true firstborn daughter to the mortal realm, Hela Odinsdottir plummets from the sky and crashes into the world of Vikings. Stripped of her divine power and left with nothing but rage and pride, she awakens in Kattegat-wounded, furious, and fully mortal. There she is discovered by Lagertha, a shieldmaiden destined for greatness, who offers protection instead of fear. Lagertha has faced kings, rivals, and treachery, but never a fallen goddess with eyes like midnight and a heart trained for war. Despite their differences, a fierce connection forms: the mortal queen who refuses to bow and the goddess learning to bleed. As Hela begins to reclaim her strength, whispers of her presence reach beyond the mortal world. Asgard wants their lost weapon returned. Thor and Odin descend, threatening Kattegat with annihilation if Hela refuses to submit to her chains again. To save the woman who taught her the meaning of love, Hela must choose between the realm that betrayed her and the only soul who has ever seen her as more than death itself. Their passion could reshape destiny-or ignite a war the gods will not survive. A bold reimagining of Thor (2011) merged with Viking history and legend, where love defies the gods and a shieldmaiden captures the heart of the Goddess of Death. Content Warning: This story contains mature themes including violence, war, trauma, death, and the darker nature of power within both mortal and divine worlds. It also features an adult lesbian romance with explicit sexual content between consenting characters. Historical brutality, morally complex decisions, and intense emotional conflicts are present throughout. Reader discretion is advised, especially for those sensitive to depictions of battle injuries, divine punishment, and passionate relationships that include graphic intimacy.Complete
Fine Line Between Love and Mischief
(Loki x OC) Forced to leave her home because of a agreement of surrender her father accepted from Odin, King of Asgard, nearly a thousand years ago, Freya must traverse life in the Asgardian court with her twin brother, Freyr, and navigate a new way of life of magic, swordplay, fearsome warriors, and battles. Secrets and lies are at the heart of the Asgardian royal family and threaten to tear it apart. Finding the most unlikely friendships in a poor orphan boy, Ottar, and quite surprisingly one of Odin's sons, Prince Loki, Freya seems to find herself in an inescapable web of lies, which threaten to unravel her own closely guarded secrets for all of the realm to hear. With powerful magic at her disposal and a connection to the afterlife, she uses it to protect her compatriots, defend some of the Nine Realms against threats that wish to invade and kill, and selflessly aid others on finding something she wishes for herself one day. True love. It is said that everyone has a soulmate. One person to truly love in a lifetime. Some say they do not exist, and some say they are rare. Freya says it is more common than one thinks and finding them is certainly more complicated than expected. Can the one person who can't be trusted at all be the person who she trusts the most?
