Summary
The blood in the mortars of Harrenhal was burned out by dragonfire brighter than a dying star. But the stone remembered what it once had. What it wants still. Harrenhal is a god; its own dripping altar. Danelle Lothston is the only person who has ever seen it for what it was, terrible and red and hungry. It shares her soul, and she paints her teeth crimson.
Or: once, there was a castle made from our blood, and it ate us whole, for that is the way of the world.
Written for Maju for IATC Harlaween :)

Summary
Quen felt peculiar up on the dais, flanked by stags and lions and wolves.
The Usurper had once been a formidable man, with blazing eyes and a massive war hammer. Now, he was just a red-faced fat man, a pathetic drunk who ate as gracefully as a half-starved hog.
His Queen seemed to be a perpetually unhappy woman. Cersei Lannister was as beautiful as the singers said, though the woman had all the warmth of a dead fish.
She might have done well in the north, Quen thought, almost pitying.
(Or: The gods in their blind malice give Theon the feeble body of a woman.)

Summary
"I am the queen of spades, I am the wasp that stings, I am the dark serpent. I am the invulnerable animal who passes through fire and is not burned." - Elena Ferrante, The Days of Abandonment
Rhaella thinks perhaps the gods, any gods, have heard her prayers, when Aerys vomits up blood in bed. (Aerys dies before the 'trial' of Rickard and Brandon Stark can commence. In King's Landing, Rhaella at last finds her footing. On Dragonstone, Elia makes her preparations. And in the Tower of Joy, Lyanna comes to a series of cold realizations).

Summary
Right now, curled naked together on the too-narrow twin bed, he’s pretty sure there’s nothing he wouldn’t let Jean Grey do if she asked.
Some sex, but mostly Ikea furniture and uncomfortable secrets.

Summary
Bruce stirred when the bed beside him dipped, and the sheets across his chest were yanked hard.
“What,” Bruce said roughly. A small hand smacked against his face.
“Shh,” said a little voice. The sheets pulled again. “Go back to sleep.”

Summary
“There’s a gym in the building,” Tim said, his hands twisting together, “but I thought if that seemed like too much, it might be nice to have some stuff here. Not because you need to work out, but just because you used to… I mean...”
Dana hadn’t lifted a weight in six months. Her strength and stamina were shot, and she didn’t have the flexibility to touch her toes. Just thinking about using any of this equipment exhausted her, but it was a nice gesture.
“Thank you,” she said. “This should be helpful.”
_____
Dana comes home from the hospital.

Summary
"Just a couple of orphans," Duke mumbles sadly, laughing with just enough self-deprecation that it could be passed off as genuine, "Sitting on the roof of a mansion, all alone, wallowing in our self pity. Should we start a club? Make matching bracelets?"
Bruce gives him a funny look, his eyes impossibly soft, as he whispers, "I'm not alone."
Duke turns to him with a confused frown.
"I've got you." Bruce says, like it's that simple.
(After a painful reality check, Duke and Bruce sit on the roof and look at the stars.)
