wanted to do another family portrait for the prompt #1 : Favorite House
this time and AU where Greyjoy rebellion never happened and Rodrik and Maron are alive.
I feel none of them being the heir, Asha and Theon would be closer, they can still bicker and fight but yeah hating their big brothers make them look out for each other.
So I wanted to portray that by Asha telling some joke to Theon and Theon trying not to laugh lol
To give more visibility to the many lovely works that we’ll be adding to our fic recs page, we have decided to have a day of the week for fic recs, in which each of the mods in turn will recommend you something they love and you guys can send us asks or submissions with your favorites too!
Summary:On that last visit, though, [Asha] had found Lady Alannys in a window seat huddled beneath a pile of furs, staring out across the sea. Is this my mother, or her ghost? she remembered thinking as she’d kissed her cheek. (A Feast for Crows)
POV Swap: This scene from Alannys Harlaw’s POV.
As evidenced by the summary, this fic is an incredibly touching view of Alannys’s grief and her relationship with her daughter, husband and brother. Her awareness and guilt about her own mental state, her feeling of having failed her daughter, are simply heartbreaking and a lovely bitter note in the general angst, as well as the delightfully creepy touches of Ironborn spirituality. A quick lovely read if you’re willing and prepared to cry!
Oh wow thank you so much for recommending my fic ❤❤
Honestly did hbo learn nothing from the failed stark prequel and the current lack of interest in the targaryen prequel? and now they’re putting out a jon snow sequel…
what’s the plot gonna be? literally everyone is unalive post season eight (mostly because of incompetence by dd), not even mentioning all the characters that died in the season itself. like the entire north has starved by now, bronn has run through all the money, arya drowned or was eaten somewhere out west, the iron islands and dorne have 100% rebelled for their independence by now, gendry died via broken heart (thanks for that joe). is the whole concept jon hunting down the last rabbit while ‘why are we staying up here…there’s a giant hole in the wall’ is a running gag?
and on a more irl note, who in their right mind would sign up to do this show? after season eight the cast was literally getting death threats while the show they worked on for years was (rightfully) dragged through the mud, their sales tanked and the fandom has faded into embarrassing thing we don’t talk about.
instead of making yet another spin off of a show they ruined, hbo should consider popping grrm’s bubble and letting him finally publish now that dd are far enough away not to ruin it.
Alannys, Theon, and Asha on the battlements of Pyke watching the Iron Fleet sail off for the start of the rebellion. Theon is excitedly pointing out someone’s ship he knows! Maybe Rodrik? Aeron? Dagmer? For @affc Happy summer secret santa Jenna!!! It was so great being your santa, I hope you like it :D
