Summary
Less than a year. I had not fended off the hollow, aching greed for the ocean—for a return to the Nautilus—for even a full year. My terror was forgotten. Over and over, a few minutes at a time, I would fall deeply asleep and find myself standing in the Grand Saloon. The viewing window opened before me, and there, just beyond the glass, was an endless garden of coral filled with more fish than even Conseil could ever hope to classify. And over and over, as I stepped forward to press my hands against the glass, the vision disappeared and I was back in my berth.

Summary
Marine liquor distillation, introspection and bioluminescence combine together and, in an almost alchemical process, turn unspoken feelings into a night of passion. In other words, utterly shameless self-serving smut.

Summary
If she could pray here, what would she pray for? And to whom? To the Smith, to help her make these strange Northerners think her one of their own? To the Mother, to give her more children, more heirs to their father's lands? To the Maiden, to make Ned love her?
Early in her marriage, Catelyn goes to the godswood to pray, and to her surprise her prayers are answered.

Summary
Prompt: "Modern AU: They see each other every morning on the metro ride to work in the city. Ned thinks she's terribly pretty ... and way out of his league. Catelyn thinks he's handsome, not classically, but in a quiet way ... and that's a bit intimidating in like manner. At first, their interactions are just the swapping of smiles and nods, which grow to a polite 'hello' a few times a week, more words on the tips of their tongues ... but neither is quite brave enough to speak up and start a true conversation, even though they find themselves rather plagued with thoughts of the other quite often (and others are noticing ... I'm thinking Lysa, Hoster, and/or Brynden, and Brandon, Benjen, and/or Robert).
Give me the progression of this relationship, however you wish."
