    Summary

    They survive the encounter with Lady Stoneheart, though not without cost. Jaime loses his sword, Podrick loses a tooth, Brienne loses the last of her naive belief that Catelyn was still somewhere reachable in that monstrous form, and Hyle—

    Hyle loses a hand.


    Post-Stoneheart, Jaime, Brienne, Pod, and Hyle retreat to the Quiet Isle, and Jaime has to figure out where he's going next. It's not as simple of a decision as it should be.

    Summary

    Fine. It’s not that he wasn’t right on a lot of things.

     

    Still — his voice sounded lighter as he recalled his childhood. She can see why he’d miss simpler times. And honestly, she kind of envies him that he even thinks about that — not that there was any snow on Tarth, but she never had siblings for bad or good, not counting her brother, and he wasn’t around enough for her to do any of those things with him, so she always was on her own most of the time and her childhood was hardly the kind you spend playing with other kids. She never did that kind of thing. So, the fact that he’d have no issues just going down and doing it if he could made something inside her go warm as she noticed how wistfully he was looking at that yard, and she can’t help feeling a certain sadness, as usual, knowing what people think of him when he’s just told her that his greatest wish right this moment is… throwing snowballs at his brother.

     

    Nothing anyone would expect of the Kingslayer now, is it?, she thinks bitterly. She wouldn’t have expected it either, years ago.

     

    But now she knows better, doesn’t she?

    “Lorna, this is Erik. Can you say hi?”

    Lorna peeks out at him and mumbles, “Hi.”

    “She’s cute,” Erik comments.

    I know, Charles thinks. She looks like you.

    Or: the one where Charles doesn’t tell Erik that joining the mile high club resulted in a baby.

    I didn’t realize how important this was to you, Charles admitted, sending along the impression of… gratitude. Gratitude that Erik cared this much. I’m not who I used to be, though. I’m not the same.

    And neither am I, Erik replied, leaning back against the headboard. I have no expectations. I just want to help, if I can.

    Mental silence fell between them—Charles was still there, drifting carefully in the center of Erik’s thoughts, but he was thinking, guarding the quiet metronome of his thoughts from Erik.

    What if this doesn’t work? Charles asked, uncertain.

    What if it does?

    Summary

    Erik is single, working a cube job he hates, letting his master's degree in mutant studies collect dust, and living on his best friend's couch. When she kicks him out, he's forced to trawl Craigslist for the least-offensive rooming option within his meagre budget. He never expects a response from the persnickety, high maintenance ad he replies to as a joke, but it's possible this too-nice apartment and mysteriously absent roommate might be the answer to all four of his problems.

    in which Robert, instead of keeping Jaime in King's Landing after the rebellion, sends him to Winterfell.

    Or, alternatively: in which Jaime gets to keep his oaths, gains both Ned's and Cat's respect and Jon Snow finds himself growing up with his own sworn sword.

    Or, even more alternatively: in which Brienne's father sends her to be a warden at Winterfell after she defies her last suitor and some things change and others stay the same.
