    Summary

    At the base of a heart tree north of the Wall, Benjen Stark's nephews and nieces appear - older than the children he knows in Winterfell - bitter, cruel, and biting. A pack divided but with horror on their lips and blood on their hands. Their past is a nightmare, and despite how the Stark siblings lick at their individual wounds, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives - and they need to become a pack again if they want to avoid the mistakes of their pasts in the new future they have been offered.

    Summary

    “You’re sure.”

    Lady Sansa’s voice was quiet, and even. Whatever her inner thoughts were, she kept them well hidden beneath her pale eyes.

    “Not sure, no.” Ser Brienne of Tarth stood in front of her, ramrod straight.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Battle for King's Landing looms before the forces of the North and of Essos. Brienne of Tarth has never been one to step back from a fight. Even if she's fighting for two.

    Epilogue: Tarth.
     

    (Begins from the end of 8x04. I've decided to write my own ending to the series. Because why the hell not.)
    (EDIT AFTER 8x05) After the bullshit we were just subjected to - I’m right, you’re wrong, shut up.

    Summary

    His mouth is set in an unhappy line, and she knows he hears it as a sentence she’s passing on him, a just punishment for his crimes. Good, she thinks, yes. I sentence you to live. Live, and find a way to come to terms with it. Live, and never make me watch you ride to your own grave again.

    (Jaime rings the bells, and from there, the future unfolds differently. A story about two tired knights on a slow boat to Tarth, working things out.)

    Summary

    Brienne stalks to him, standing in front of him as he shakes the ash and soot out of his hair and clothes. He looks up to find her standing there, the shock writ heavy across his brows, in the slackening of his jaw. She cups his face, thumbing at the smut on his cheeks.

     

    “Are you okay?”

     

    He blinks several times before a beatific smile spreads across his face. “I am.”

     

    She nods once, decidedly. “Good.”

     

    Then she pulls back and punches him square in his nose.
    --

    A post-8x04 "fix-it" fic. Jaime survives his trip back south and the ensuing battle for King's Landing. Cersei does not. Brienne's trust has been broken, and there's the slight baby-shaped complication from their time in Winterfell.

    Summary

    Three weeks into their delightful slog across Westeros, during yet another charming day of shitting in the woods, eating half-raw squirrel, and trudging his feet bloody, the single most dour and uninteresting woman Jaime had ever met in all of Westeros stopped in the middle of a field, drew a deep breath, and said, “When I was seven, my aunt came to visit with her son. My father told me that as the daughter of the house, it was my duty to show hospitality to my guests and to be gracious to them. I wanted to make him proud. So for three weeks, I let my cousin follow me around and talk to me about spiders.”
