    Summary

    "You know what it's like to belong somewhere you're supposed to hate. You've loved people you're supposed to hate."

    ***

    Rickon looked up. And Tommen realized he was crying. "Bran needs us, Jon. Someone's got to go. I can feel it."

    "You're going to kill Theon." Jon's voice was a growl. "Rickon, you're going to kill Theon."

    ***

    Maybe Jaime was going to lose his mind. But, fuck it, his tongue would go to the grave with him. Let them cut off his legs and his other hand.
    "Your sister's lost so much more. And if she were here, she'd fucking punch you."

    ***

    Jaime rolled his eyes. "The last thing we need is a dragon to worry about."

    ***

    Two years after the end of the War of Five Kings, King Tyrion's reign prepares to face the last great war. The only important one. The war between the living and the dead.

    Or: Jon, Tommen, Rickon, and most of the rest go fight the White Walkers (and there is a dragon). Jaime, Tyrion and Jolyon stay home. Sansa returns home and suffers. Robb and Arya do their worst.

    Summary

    They survive the encounter with Lady Stoneheart, though not without cost. Jaime loses his sword, Podrick loses a tooth, Brienne loses the last of her naive belief that Catelyn was still somewhere reachable in that monstrous form, and Hyle—

    Hyle loses a hand.


    Post-Stoneheart, Jaime, Brienne, Pod, and Hyle retreat to the Quiet Isle, and Jaime has to figure out where he's going next. It's not as simple of a decision as it should be.

    Summary

    There had been a few – only a few – advantages to being a Kingsguard.  Jaime was reasonably well acquainted with the hidden ways into the Red Keep; knowledge of them was necessary for protection of the royal family.  Not that I was much good at it.  Three kings died on my watch, one at my hand, plus two heirs to the throne, and two princesses.  Were I still Lord Commander, I could record that in the White Book. 

    But he would not allow his second son, the bastard King, to be added to the tally.

    Summary

    Brienne struggled into a robe and unbarred the door.  She kept her blade at the ready.  “You,” she said.

    “You’re an impressive sight.”  His green eyes laughed at her.  “What are you doing with that sword?”

    She raised it.  “I have nothing to say to you.”

    “Yes, I can see that our marriage would have been one long feast of reason and flow of soul.”

    “Why are you here?” 

    He shouldered past her, disregarding her objections and her weapon, carrying a platter and a pitcher.  Over his shoulder she could see guards.  “Isn’t it regarded as a blessing to visit the mad?”

    Summary

    Bran saw them spread before him like threads, they were all dead now, everyone he knew. Winter had come and the lone wolves had all died. Jojen’s rotting corpse lay at his feet. His eyes, now blind to light, searched a thousand-thousand memories, which ran like roots beneath the land. A light flashed, a single shooting star in the night. It glinted beneath the moon and landed on the island of Tarth. He saw it now, what would change their fates. He switched the places of Galladon and Brienne, just as the fae switch infants with changelings. Then everything went dark.
    Perhaps a single change can make all the difference in the course of fate. What if Brienne of Tarth was born ten years earlier? Shamelessly fluffy rewrite where Jaime and Brienne go on Dunk and Egg side quests, have many bastard children and piss of Tywin at every turn. My first fic - please be kind xx *Will be updated weekly*

    Summary

    The dead have come, and the living must answer.

    The Wall is broken and the Night's King marches south, his army of the dead stretching from horizon to horizon. In the North, the greatest army ever assembled prepares for a battle that will decide the fate of the world.

    But the war is not only in the North.

    In King's Landing, Cersei Lannister sits on the Iron Throne, her enemies ashes and her madness unchecked. In the Narrow Sea, Euron Greyjoy tightens his blockade, hungry for dragons he cannot hope to control. And in the shadows of history, visions of the past reveal a truth that has been hidden for three centuries.

    Daenerys Targaryen has united the Seven Kingdoms. She has dragons, armies, and the loyalty of lords who once called her enemy. But unity is not victory. And the dead do not tire.

    Now, as ice meets fire and the living face the dead, the true cost of the prophecy will finally be revealed.

    The Long Night is here. But the dawn is coming.

    Summary

    Jaime Lannister rides to Winterfell to fight for the living. Sansa Stark greets him with cold silence and colder eyes. There’s no forgiveness between them—just need, friction, and inevitability. As the dead march closer, he becomes her anchor, her weapon, her ruin. She becomes his absolution, his Queen in the North, his leash.

    In the dark before the dawn, they find heat in each other’s arms, fury in each other’s mouths, and surrender in every bruising kiss.
    The world may end at sunrise.
    Tonight, they burn.🔥

    Summary

    Post-Winterfell, the living pick up the pieces. Jaime and Sansa try to turn one frantic night into a life. Brienne and Tormund stop circling and start choosing. Tyrion threads needles with jokes sharp enough to draw blood. Cersei sharpens revenge until it looks like an accident. There is a pregnancy. There is a loss. There is a vow to build something that outlives them.

    Summary

    Yes, you are not mistaken—some of you have read this story before. However, it's been about three years since I last updated. I decided to return to this very dear story of mine, for it has haunted my dreams. How ironic!
    .
    I removed the original fanfic. This is a remastered version, where we get to engage with the plot from a first-person present-tense PoV.
    .
    Dreams. Visions. Prophecies.
    After Riverrun, Jaime Lannister cannot escape Brienne of Tarth's cries for help—summoning him to Winterfell from beyond his darkest nightmares. Dream by dream, it slowly dawns on Jaime that this might be the call of Destiny.

    Summary

    The Long Night ended with far too many graves.

    Then the survivors woke up years in the past.

    Ned Stark lives. Robb Stark lives. Rickon Stark lives.

    But survival does not undo what happened.

    Arya remembers years spent becoming someone her father would barely recognize. Sansa remembers the people she lost and the ones she learned to love. Jon remembers a crown he never wanted. And the family that finally found each other again must now learn how to be a family for the second time.

    The dead are coming.

    The game of thrones is beginning again.

    And this time, the wolves intend to survive.

    Summary

    Ned changed as much as he could after being shown the consequences of his mistakes in his first life. The North is stronger, the free folk are south of the wall, the Boltons and Umbers are tied to the Starks more strongly than ever, and now he needs to prepare his family for the fight to come… and hope his nephew Jon will return from Essos before the Night King can threaten the realm once again. Because this time, Ned knows that Jon is the only one who can stop the long night for good.

    Summary

    Sansa didn't blame her for that outburst because Jaime Lannister at this moment was an utter complete idiot but a noble one that needed to be saved before Cersei killed also made her realize that Arya was the other Kingslayer and that she left Winterfell no doubt on her way to King's Landing. She prayed that they both found one another on the road and that they had some rational sense to stick together once Sansa had forces at the ready to march. Because there was no way in the seven hells that she would let those two fight this on their own.

    Those two idiots...

    Now to find Gendry and sort this mess out.

    Or, Brienne finds the truth as to why Jaime left, Sansa and Gendry are rightfully pissed. All the while Jaime and Arya yell at each other, mope about their soulmates, make a plan to kill a Queen and Sandor just wants to get to King's Landing.

    Summary

    Arya spoke too loudly, Sansa said nothing, Podrick was trying to look on the brighter side this outcome and Gendry was just utterly confused about the whole situation. They were lucky that Jaime had kept his promise to Ned Stark and smuggled them all out of King's Landing before dawn broke.

    If not, well Jaime did not want to think about that outcome if it hadn't come to him smuggling children out of King's Landing. Not one bit.

    (or Jaime takes on keeping two Starks alive while on the run. All the while, Ned Stark tries to keep the biggest secret he's ever kept from slipping to Robert as a war for the Kingdom begins again.)

    Summary

    They run into each other by chance when he is running from the same queen she is set to kill. For Jaime, it is his chance to finally be done with that godsforsaken oath he swore to Catelyn Stark years ago. For Arya…well…she should hate him. But she has a rather bad habit of adopting strays.

    Told in a series of drabbled snapshots and ficlets that get longer as the story unfolds because I just couldn't help myself.

    But when you think about it, the chapters get longer the closer Arya and Jaime grow together so... it kinda works? idk

    Summary

    In a Westeros turned upside down, old wounds heal, new love blooms, and some of the realm’s most stubborn hearts finally get their happily ever afters — with plenty of laughter, awkward moments, and the occasional brooding glance.
    This is the story where Jaime stops being a deadbeat, Brienne teaches him how to adult, Jon and Sansa drop the sibling act for something far messier and more real, and Daenerys finds peace — or at least tries to, with Jorah by her side.
    It’s a rom-com wrapped in a medieval cloak, with men who are charmingly clueless, queens who wield more than swords, and enough sass to keep even Tyrion on his toes.
    Basically: it’s my big, noisy, messy fuck you to Season 8 — because these characters deserved better. And maybe a little bit of garlic in their stew.

    Summary

    Bran shows Jaime visions of a future stained in fire and grief—and Jaime stays. In the wake of the Long Night, love begins to bloom where it shouldn't: between a knight and her lion, a queen and her not-brother. But Daenerys still wants the Iron Throne, and the North is no longer hers to command. Arya watches her siblings like a hawk. Tyrion watches Daenerys like a lit fuse. And everyone knows one thing for certain: if the Dragon Queen finds out, they’re all absolutely fucked.
