Northern Brides by DarrkeThoughts

Summary
Marriage and politics go hand in hand in the seven kingdoms. What might have happened if some of the parents took a little more active role in finding good matches for their children?
Tywin Lannister starts the ball rolling by sending his youngest son in search of a bride sometime shortly before the death of Jon Aryn. Tyrion's quest will push the Starks to start thinking about advantageous matches for their children even before the King's visit and the effects will ripple out from there.
Where the books and TV show are different I will be following the books, mostly... occasionally I may slip in something from the show, or from another fic because it's become part of my head cannon.
UPDATE(2019): I never meant to abandon this story but I've had a crazy year or two with a daughter who has been in and out of the hospital, not to mention some disappointment with exactly how far (I hope) the show ended up diverging from the books. There have been so many kudos in the meantime. Thank you all for reading! Now that life has settled a little I'm going to try to get this one finished and will be doing some re-reading and revising as well.

Summary
I would like to say this is a time-travel fix-it story, but when Cersei finds herself thrown into her younger self at the moment of her death “it” is not the long night, “it” has much more to do with revenge.

Summary
""Who are you?" She ground out, the icy words slicing through the air.
That arrow could punch straight through my chest. And she knows it.
As if reading his mind, the girl's mouth twisted into a smirk, "You really shouldn't test me. It'd be a shame to ruin such a fine body for such a simple question."
Rhaegar hoped the shadows aided him in the lies he was about to tell.
"We are landless knights from the South. We heard rumors of increased wildling attacks along the Wall and figured we'd take it upon ourselves to help protect the greatest part of the Seven Kingdoms. What knight doesn't wish for wild adventures in the snow?"
The girl scoffed, but lowered her bow. "If you're landless knights, then I'm the Maiden herself. That flowery speech will get you nothing but trouble here.""
**
After avoiding an undesirable betrothal, the Crown Prince is sent to spy on the Starks for the King, who is convinced the Warden of the North plans treachery. Rhaegar finds there is more to the North than endless snow, Lyanna is exhausted by duty in a male-dominated world, while Ned struggles with a conflicted heart and Rickard looks to his legacy.

Summary
March 17th 2026 Update: Varro Option #? LOL.
NOTE: This fic is a reinvention of ASoIaF/GoT (we pretend the S7/S8 disasters never happened). We pick up where the Arya/Faceless storyline left off in tWoW prologue, then merge into the universe of the TV Show, then this world. The fic will end with the ending of the Game of Thrones, and beyond.
A girl completes her training to become a faceless one. On the other side of the Narrow Sea, a man struggles not to fall in love with a memory. The two will meet again, this time as comrades-in-arms on a deadly mission. Other reunions are also inevitable, for Arya Stark has found a way to serve the Many-Faced God without surrendering her identity. How will the last of the Starks react to one of their own being an assassin? Meanwhile, Daenerys Targaryen moves on Westeros, a new King rises in the North, and everyone is still playing a Game no one can win...

Summary
This is a Winds of Winter fanfiction. Frankly, Gorge R. R. Martin is taking much too long, and this the only thing that will keep me sane. All the characters and places and thrones belong the the great author. Not to me. If you are just as desperate as me to read TWoW, give this one a chance. And keep telling me how you like it. Thank You.
You can follow me on my tumblr blog asoiafnerd.tumblr.com for discussion and/or questions.
