    Summary

    "Her forehead smoothes out. Apathy is worse than confusion, worse than skepticism. Apathy is worse than everything. He’d rather she gutted him with his own dagger than ignore him. He’d sooner she walked all over him than skirted around him."

    In which Roman indulges in falling and dreams of flying, and doesn't quite manage to do either.

    Canon-complaint contemplation of Roman and Gerri.

    Summary

    He's just a guy she has sex with sometimes (regularly, a lot, all the time). It's no big deal (it's a massive deal) that she enjoys his company (values his friendship more than anything they do with their clothes off). They're just friends (except when they're so, so much more).

    Summary

    Peace has been the default for centuries, but in modern day Westeros, alliances among the Seven Kingdoms are still formed through arranged marriages.

    Northern Princess Arya Stark had always hoped to avoid that fate, but having been called home from school due to a scandal, she’s horrified to learn of her own upcoming betrothal to the crown prince of the Stormlands.

    With only days to go before she meets her intended, Arya hatches a plan that just might get her out of the marriage. After all, as her mother insists, one of the most valuable things a royal bride can possess is her virginity.

    Inspired by a Tumblr post.

    Summary

    “How’re you doing?” Theon asked.

    What he really meant was, “How are you handling the arrival of Gendry Waters – your one time best friend who you confessed your love to while begging him to come with you to Braavos, who politely rejected you, and who moved out from your shared apartment with only a sterilized email informing you he wouldn’t be renewing the his lease – knowing you’ll be forced to speak to him at least once this week?”

    “I’m fine."

    Summary

    Arya goes West to find what there is at the edge of the world, while Gendry gives two years to his lordship, and then finally heads East to learn Qohorik smithing secrets. Fate would have that if you go far enough West, and far enough East you are bound to meet.

    When they meet, Gendry invites Arya to stay at his place, while she sorts herself out. In the end, she doesn't leave, and they find their way to becoming friends again, they finally talk about all the things left unsaid between them, and they explore the secrets of Qohor, The City of Sorcerers.

    Summary

    Suddenly and entirely against his own will, Gendry Waters is pulled away from his forge and made Lord Paramount of the Stormlands. He is forced to grapple with governance duties, the rules of polite society, and the most intriguing, headstrong lady he's ever met.

    Lady Arya Stark is dragged from her home for the summer to accompany her father as he assists the struggling new lord. She must endure garden parties, pretty dresses, and the marriage market. She has indignantly vowed that she will never marry any stupid man. Her vow, however, is tested when the stupidest man of all begins to hold a certain appeal.

    How can budding feelings square off against the angry declarations of the two most stubborn young souls in the realm?

    Summary

    Everyone's a little broken. The edges not quite as smooth as they once were, pieces missing, carved out.

    There's no way around that. Life does that to a person.

    The person you love shouldn't want to fix or put you back together.

    They should want their broken edges to meet yours and find a comfortable fit, for their souls to dovetail with yours and find something new about themselves, about you in the process. Something that strengthens you both.

    Summary

    “Gods, how long had it been since he’d seen her? Over a year at least. It had been so much longer since he’d spent any real time with her. A person can change a lot in a few years; Gendry certainly felt like he had. He wasn’t sure if Arya was still the same girl he’d known, but seeing her made him feel like he was eighteen again.”

    For the Gendrya Gift Exchange 2019, based on the prompt Snowed In:

    Everyone is going to the Stark’s ski lodge for a long weekend. Gendry and Arya are the first to arrive, but everyone else is held up by a bad snowstorm. They won’t be able to get there, and Gendry and Arya can’t leave. When the firewood runs low, they have to find a way to keep each other warm.

    Summary

    “You shouldn’t be in here by yourself. The only men that come in here are thieves and creeps,” he said.

    If she was put off by his demeanor, Arya was even more taken aback by his tone.

    “Which one are you then?”

    -

    (Arya Stark has two months to kill and three-thousand miles ahead of her, before her career begins - until a grumpy hitchhiker causes her to change course, in more ways than one.)
