Our souls lie down in the grass by sdwolfpup for auntie_social

Summary
Three hundred years ago, the Great Houses built spaceships, abandoning everyone else to the world's decades-long seasons, never expecting the remaining humans to survive. Those left behind – the earthers, as they came to be called – raced to the edge of extinction and then pulled themselves back, working together with the earth until the seasons settled into the manageable, months-long cycles they should have been all along.
Now, generations out from the ships' departures, the Lost Ones have come back, looking for safe haven. In order to stay, they must first spend a year with an earther family on the planet, before deciding whether to remain or leave again, this time forever. Brienne Tarth and her father are one of many to take in a family of Lost Ones to live with them for the year.
Their assigned family? The Lannisters.

Summary
Jaime Lannister has always believed that soulmarks are open and shut cases.
Ever since his appeared at nine years old, he's let horrors befall it, for a myriad of reasons.But now he's trying to erase the scars (both mental and literal) that his twin sister and lover of 18 years left on him; and to do that he needs to visit Dr Catelyn Stark who can fix the damages caused to his soulmark.
While there, he meets Brienne Tarth; an assistant who's convinced soulmarks are more magic than science; who has stories proving all soulmark cases differ slightly, and shows Jaime that there's a whole world he knows nothing about. But he wants to learn; and really who better to teach him?
Over the course of his treatment, Jaime will find himself dealing with shocks, surprises and feelings for a woman who can't possibly be his soulmate; but he's starting to wonder just how much that really matters.
Warning; this fic does contain several references to self-harm / cutting inflicted by another party.

Summary
Brienne isn't interested in dating anyone. Jaime--a frequent customer turned semi-friend at the gaming shop where Brienne works--isn't interested in dating anyone either. So when Brienne wants to get her matchmaking father off her back for just one year so she can focus on helping run the Tarth Sevenmas Festival, Jaime is, of course, the perfect, perfectly safe choice for her to bring home.
Curious about the title of this fic? I’m joining an effort to call on AO3 to fulfill commitments they have already made to address harassment and racist abuse on the archive. Read more, boost, and get involved here!

Go and kiss her by Zeta_Mei

Summary
"Go and kiss her', Tyrion has said.
Tyrion has also said that it would have been easy like breathing, and Jaime has trusted him. A pity that now breathing is getting a bit difficult, with all that blood spilling from his nose."
Or, Tyrion tricks Jaime into participating in a game show edited by KL's University Web Tv - a sort of Deal With It in which a student must do weird and risky tasks for a cash reward in front of a relative - but he kisses the wrong wench.
Or maybe she's the right one for him, who knows?Bookmarked by whenitwhen

This is a story with surfing as the tie that binds Jaime and Brienne, their matching drive and passion for the sport a force that brings them together and might tear them apart.

Summary
At first he doesn’t notice. Perhaps it is because he is shocked to see her there. He and Cersei had prepared for the meeting, talking through their strategy for hours, but for all that talking he never thought Brienne would attend the Dragonpit summit. He’d never dared to hope for something so absurd, and if the thought occurred to him it would not have been something he’d wanted.

Why Are You Being Nice to Me? by JaneHudson
Fandoms: A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin, A Song of Ice and Fire & Related Fandoms, Game of Thrones (TV)
29 Apr 2020

Summary
Brienne always looks forward to her annual vacation to Venice. A vacation she prefers to take alone, thank you very much. How dare a stranger--even if he is a handsome one--try to intrude? And why cant she bring herself to just tell him to go away?
Jaime can't tell if the woman wants him as a traveling companion or not. But, instead of being annoyed by her changeable moods, he is intrigued, especially when she asks what really is the most ridiculous question. He's being nice because he's actually mostly a nice guy, despite what people assume when they first look at him. No other reason. Definitely no other reason.
Silvery sunrises, gondolas, and foggy nights straight out of a film *should* serve as a backdrop for love at first sight, but, as anyone who has ever tried to actually navigate the labyrinth that is Venice's streets can attest, nothing there is ever as straightforward as it seems.
