    Summary

    “I hate counting coppers,” he grumbled, “perhaps we should just give the crown to Stannis, run off to the Free Cities and be done with it.”

    “Stannis wouldn’t take it,” she tells him matter-of-factly “Not while you lived. And anyway, the crown would fall to Sansa if you and I were to disappear.”

    Robert grumbles, “Well we’d take her with us, wouldn’t we? Me and you, Robb, Sansa and Jon, living in Braavos or Pentos or Myr. They wouldn’t have to learn courtly manners and I could fight every day and you could come fight with me, if you wanted-”

    “I remember,” she tells him, amusement warm in her tone, “When you used to dream we’d marry. Then we did. I think King and Queen of the Seven Kingdoms is enough of a dream for a lifetime.”

     

    Also known as: the kind-of anticipated sequel to i loved a maid as spry as spring (with sunrise in her hair)/Eddara's Rebellion or the fic wherein Fem!Ned kicks ass, takes names and has a fuckton of kids.

    Summary

    Melara Heatherspoon was not a particularly bold, or loud, or sweet, or even noticeable child.

    She liked it that way.

    If she’s not noticeable, then Cersei won’t push her down a well. If she’s not noticeable, then she’s not a player in the game of thrones, and she can escape with her life.

    AKA

    SI-OC with Melara Heatherspoon where she still falls down the well but everything turns out alright

    Summary

    "When Catelyn slips under the bed-covers, it is with a grateful sigh; and she sinks without resistance onto the mattress. It has been too long since she slept in a proper bed. Tomorrow, she would wake up comfortable and refreshed, Queen Catelyn Baratheon, loyal to her husband and king. Looking back is a dangerous slope and Catelyn dares not so much as peek over her shoulder. If she does, she might slip and fall and never find her way up. She must stand tall and look forward, or she may be lost."

    AU where Hoster Tully takes a chance—and weds Catelyn to Robert Baratheon before he rebels. As her husband leads his court to Winterfell to make Ned Stark the Hand of the King, Catelyn tries her best to stay strong in the face of winter.

    Summary

    Stannis, my lord, my sad sullen boy, son I never had, you must not do this, don’t you know how I have cared for you, lived for you, loved you despite all? Yes, loved you, better than Robert even, or Renly, for you were the one unloved, the one who needed me most. (A Clash of Kings)

    Stannis Baratheon and Maester Cressen, five snapshots.
