god of war laufey takes over TikTok as fans realize Kratos’ dead wife was actually the final boss of tax season

In a plot twist that broke the algorithm, the internet has collectively lost its mind over the revelation that Laufey—the ghost of Kratos’ past in God of War Ragnarok—is trending not for her frost giant lineage, but because she apparently symbolizes the ultimate adulting struggle: filing your taxes before the April deadline. Memes are flooding timelines showing Laufey’s haunting, knowing smile as the “final boss” of procrastination, with users editing her into scenes of panicked TurboTax sessions and saying she “died so Kratos wouldn’t have to see the W-2 forms from Fimbulwinter.” Meanwhile, die-hard lore fans are furiously explaining that Laufey was actually a chill rebel who hid the truth about her son’s destiny, but the internet has already crowned her the Queen of Unpaid Audits.
