I will always be obsessed with the Starks

I will always be obsessed with how Robb’s best friend in the whole entire world was Jon fucking Snow.

Because they just wanted to see their brother again and they died in same way. Looking into the eyes of men they knew better than to trust but did anyway.

It’s unhealthy how obsessed I am with them and their relationship as brothers as friends as two people who missed each other terribly

APWH preview snippet!

Since I'm actively trying to work on getting the next few chapters out, I thought I'd share a little future scene with some hints of Jonsa with all you lovely people! This bit is from like, a few chapters in the future bc it's the in-between that's giving me fits right now :) (Fair warning: this is unedited and subject to change! That being said, it's such a fun scene that I can't imagine ever nixing it :D)

“Does he even know that they have to avoid the press?”

“For the last time-“ Sam sighed, sounding completely exasperated, “Dickon knows what they can and can’t do- he’s got enough practice not being photographed from when our dad was the secretary. Not to mention spending time around you when that exposé on your crazy grandfather came out two years ago.”

“I just-“ Jon sighed, blowing a stray curl out of his face. “You didn’t see how freaked out she was when the press caught us at that performance in White Harbor. I thought she was going to have a full-blown panic attack.”

He was immediately derailed by Gilly plopping little Sam down in his lap and shoving a bottle into his hands.

“What’s this all about?” he raised a brow, adjusting the baby on his lap, allowing him to latch onto the cuff of his flannel shirt and start gnawing at the fabric. “You going somewhere?”

Gilly shot him a withering look, but he saw the amusement in her eyes.

“I-“ she gestured, imperiously, “Have not had time by myself to shower all week-“

“Sorry, love.” Sam winced, looking up from his pile of paperwork. “I can take a break from these-“

“Not your fault, Sam.” she waved him off. “You warned me about this conference at the beginning of the summer.” a grin played at the corners of her mouth. “Besides, it works out well- Jon needs a distraction right now from the fact that Sansa’s on a date with your extremely hot and conventionally attractive brother.”

“Hey!” Sam looked wounded, and Gilly rolled her eyes, pressing a kiss to his forehead.

“You know you’re my favorite Tarly.” she wrinkled her nose. “How long have you been working on this presentation? You smell like the baby spit up on you.”

“Guess I’m next in line for showers.” Sam said, mournfully. “Unless-“

“Nope- I need my own time right now, Samwell. Did you even hear what I said about why Jon’s bent out of shape?”

Jon had known Gilly since Sam and she had met up north while the two of them were in college. Sometimes, it was hard to reconcile the timid, scared girl she had been with the woman who was currently devoting all of her remaining energy to busting his balls.

“Don’t tell me you’re worried about Sansa with my brother.” Sam snorted, shotgunning another cup of coffee next to him the way Jon was used to seeing undergrads do with jaeger shots. “I mean, this is Dickon we’re talking about. Used to bring wounded animals home to take care of them Dickon? The same guy who cried when we had movie night and Gilly and Rhae wanted to go see ‘Love, Simon’?” He shook his head. “Look, as far as guys she could be out on a date with right now go, Dickon’s kind of the best case scenario. She’ll have a nice time, and he’ll be a perfect gentleman.”

Jon blinked at him, silently turning to look up at Gilly, who rolled her eyes and sighed.

“You’re hopeless, sweetie.” she kissed him on the forehead again, wrinkling her nose. “He’s not worried that things will go wrong- he’s worried they’ll go a little too well.”

“You’ve been spending way too much time around my sister.” Jon muttered, narrowly avoiding little Sam’s grasping reach for his glasses, managing to get the baby to latch onto the bottle before he destroyed any more of Jon’s eyewear. “You even sounded like her just then.”

Sam blinked for a second, his head whipping between Jon and Gilly.“You’re jealous?” He asked, incredulously. “Of Dickon? Wait- you like Sansa?”

“Got there in the end.” Gilly sighed, affectionately patting him on the shoulder before going to shower, leaving Jon and Sam behind with four cups of coffee, one baby, and approximately five brain cells total between the two of them.

“You like her.” Sam repeated, like it was a giant revelation.

“What are we- in middle school?” Jon hissed, immediately turning his head down to smile and make faces at little Sam while he fed him, before glaring up at big Sam again. “I don’t- I mean-“

Sam was just shaking his head.“Of course you do.” he laughed. “Should have guessed- red hair and a damsel in distress? You were doomed from the outset.”

“Shut up.” Jon muttered, flushing. “It’s not like that.”

“Then why are you worrying about Dickon for fu-“ Sam glanced nervously at the baby, “-god’s sake? When Gill was meeting my family for the first time, I remember you told her not to worry- that my brother was ‘one of the best guys you know’ and ‘practically a golden retriever’.”

Jon could tell that Sam, who could not raise one eyebrow without the other, was desperately trying to do just that.

“I don’t know.” He muttered, moving little Sam to his shoulder to start burping him. “Look- I’m attracted to her, alright? It’s a fu- er, a giant disaster that I’m gonna ignore for the rest of my life.”

“Seriously?”

“Stop trying to do that with your eyebrows.” Jon complained. “It’s giving me motion sickness. And yes, seriously. I’m not even going to consider that- it’s just a stupid crush. Besides,” he sighed, rubbing little Sam’s back comfortingly, “Robb’s already dealing with enough right now with this whole Sansa situation- can’t imagine telling him I think his sister’s attractive while he’s being forced to suddenly confront all of his guilt and self loathing every time he looks at her.”

“That whole bro code thing of never dating your friend’s sisters never really made sense to me.” Sam shook his head, gulping down more coffee. “I mean, I’d be thrilled if you decided to date Talla, because I know you’d be good to her.”

“Yeah, don't think she'd quite go for that, mate.” Jon snorted, standing to bounce little Sam around gently. He was just grateful Sam hadn’t said anything else about Robb.

“Eh, wouldn’t count you out completely.” Sam shrugged, smirking. “With that hair, you’re pretty enough to be a girl- maybe that’d be enough for her.”

“You are so lucky i’m holding the baby.” Jon muttered, still bouncing little Sam, who picked that moment to spit up spectacularly down Jon’s back.

“Well, that’s three of us who’re gonna need showers now.” Sam grinned, looking thrilled as all get out that it hadn’t been him. “Wow- his aim is getting better.”

“I’m going to remind him of this when he’s a sulky teenager.” Jon grumbled, wiping spit-up off his shoulder as best he could. “Look- no gossiping with Rhae about this, please. She thinks she’s such a good clandestine agent that she doesn’t always realize that Robb is better at sniffing out her plots than she thinks.”

“Alright-“ Sam sighed, looking back down at the massive stack of paperwork in front of him. “I make no promises for Gill, though.”

“Gilly could give some of my Uncle’s colleagues at the WIA a run for their money when it comes to withstanding interrogation.” Jon snorted.

“Probably true.”

“Where did your brother take Sansa?” Still holding onto a now much happier baby with one hand, he reached down the other to take a gulp of his own coffee.

“He said something about going out towards the Tyrell Estate.” Sam shrugged. “They probably drove out there to see the gardens- he’s said it’s a good road to take his bike out on.”

Jon promptly spat out his entire sip of coffee, staining the front of his shirt as well as the back, and frightening little Sam enough that he started to cry.

“He took her on his motorcycle?”

Gilly picked that moment to reappear, completely clean and with wet hair, blinking at the scene in front of her.

Sam, who couldn’t seem to stop laughing, was desperately trying to calm down the baby, who had started wailing, while Jon’s entire front was covered in coffee and his entire back was covered in baby vomit. Not that he seemed to notice, as his face was white and he was making a series of angry looking hand gestures at her husband.

“I really can’t leave you three alone for five minutes, can I?” she sighed. “Do I even want to know?”

[ladystoneboobs]

oh, so close, buddy, so close. why, yes, it is sexist of grrm to use sansa this way while writing the starkling bonds involving brothers as all but conflictfree! (we only get that one flashback of robb hurting jon by screaming about his bastardy and it's revealed pretty late in the game, near the end of asos, after robb's death. and clearly happened when they were quite young, an isolated incident, without which robb would have been pretty much a perfect brother to jon.) but it's especially bad when sansa/arya aren't just the only stark sisters in present timeline, they're also only one of two developed sisterly relathionships in the entire series, the other being their mother and her sister. that relationship had cracks in it years before catelyn was aware of them, and ended with a death threat from lysa leaving cat bitter towards her. is kinslaying or near-kinslaying the resolution y'all want for arya and her sister or just never meeting again period? what a great sisterly track record that would be for grrm! not to mention a great ending for arya, ignoring her own desire to see all her siblings again and finally have a good relationship with sansa! it's true that you can really tell that agot sansa was created just as a foil to arya and it's clear which sister the writer favored back then, who we're meant to side with. but to think that grrm has done nothing better with sansa since then, has never developed her beyond the token unstark and a "camera pov" for more plot important characters, that she has never once expressed any care for her sister, and that there is never any hope for sisters with a bad childhood relationship to grow and get along better once they're older, that they can never have a good relationship and should never even try, well, i'd say that makes you more sexist than grrm ever was as a writer and also kind of insulting toward his later work. congratulations on that!

Robb's Ghost "I'm calling my lawyer"

[cthoniian]

robb stark - once king in the north - once son, once brother, once husband. but he is no one now. he is less than no one. yet still he gathers his pride and sails for the only place he knows might bear him some hope of redemption. the lannisters have taken everything from him. they took his father, they took his sisters, his brothers gone, his kingdom in ruins, the boltons never should have been trusted but he'd been foolish enough to. but he perserveres. because there is one who might understand.

to meeren. a land far away to a queen. to a bloodline his family once bowed to. to a dynasty that his ancestor had fought to preserve. an old knight gives him entrance, familiar to robb at once -- though he doubts that the former kings guard would know him. he'd been but a boy when he'd seen him. he'd felt grown -- but he hadn't been.

at last he kneels before her. the small girl beside her recites her titles. proud, to stand beside the woman on the bench. it isn't truly a throne. and he cannot help but respect her for that.

' my family once served yours your grace. my family bent the knee when the dragons came. we hosted monarchs in our halls, offered them comfort when they came down from their journey to the northern wall. my ancestor rode to kings landing and though the bargain he'd made could have died with the prince he swore to, he upheld it. i am robb stark your grace, my people named me king of the north -- but i have lost it. lost it as i have lost my family. and that burden falls to me, but i would repay the lannisters that debt they've accrued. i do not have power nor armies to give you, nor even gifts to prove my loyalty. but i can tell you, if you wish the north without bloodshed -- i can give you that. my father never wanted power, but he took it when his king asked it of him, my family never wanted wars with yours -- but we went to do honor for our family. let me serve you again. in whatever capacity you see fit -- only i beg, allow me to be a tool to repay the lannisters all they have stolen from us. fathers and brothers, mothers and sisters -- futures we hoped for, and cruelties we have endured. '

and with that, the auburn wolf bows his head. the scars of his injuries vivid in puckered red against pale skin. he survived that red wedding. but what cost? too high -- too high and too long will he remember it. the sight of his mother as she clawed her own face, the gush of blood as it poured down her gown. her scream as she saw him fall. but he had survived. and he lives now for one thing -- repayment.

@winterreigned sent:

angst prompt for robb: sansa arrives at winterfell to be wed to ramsay , he escorts her through the cellars , she sees robb , who she had mourned and grieved , thought dead. it's the first time she's seen him in five years. sansa is all shaky breaths and wobbling legs, trying to stabilize herself. she fears an overreaction would give ramsay what he desires, but she's basically trembling and falling apart seeing robb like this.

Robb had been in the cells of various castles for nearly two years at this point, being moved in the night and kept from light. He was certainly paler than he ever had been, and Roose had someone regularly come to make sure he was shorn and the Tully red hair was not recognizable. The Young Wolf was shackled well in his prison, for he still had fight in him despite the treatment the traitor had provided. He listens closely when he hears the sound of footsteps and wonders if it is Ramsay wanting to again show him to the shell of a man that had once been Theon.

Tully blue eyes flick up as he glares at those who approach, his arms kept apart by a wooden block shackle, the chains upon his legs clanging as he shifts. Everything stops when he sees her. Sansa. It made no sense to him, she was a captive in King's Landing last he'd heard and married by force to the son of Tywin Lannister. He told himself that he had to be mistaken, though he would know his sister anywhere. He glares at the Bastard of Bolton, his jaw clenching and his voice a growl. "Another taunt, Snow?"

Robb is well aware that reminding a bastard that they are not trueborn is the quickest way to hurt them when your fists could not, which is why he refused to call Ramsay anything but Snow. It was well known that there was only one Snow who was allowed to reside peacefully in Winterfell and he was at the Wall. His eyes do not leave Sansa, worry in them as he tries to stand tall and strong in spite of years of captivity.

robb stark & grace hargreeves @grace-aka-mom

"it's not safe out here." robb warned as he walked the streets, making sure to look out for those that needed help. he could well take care of himself, it was other people he was concerned for here.

@rcvcrics jeyne westerling for robb stark

"looks like we're stuck here." jeyne shook her head as she glanced around the four walls of the elevator. "i've always worried about this very thing happening whenever i get on an elevator and now it's real."

[furyfms]

i don't believe in good luck. - (lyanna & robb) @thefinalgxrl

“ i do not believe in good luck, either. or luck of any kind. ” perhaps he had at one point, when he were still a boy, a young lord content within the halls of his home : winterfell. but no longer, and possibly never again. “ i believe that the gods are cruel, and that luck has nothing to do with any of it. ” he had experienced it all first hand after all, had he not ?

[xradiant]

It felt like he was constantly being watched and he hated every second of it, he hated the very idea of it. He wanted to find a way out but every time he tried to find a way to step more assuredly he grew weak and faltered somewhat. He had once been King of the North and now he was - something else entirely. Now he was a mere idiot of a boy, someone with no goal, no future. He could still remember the sight of what had happened with the Frey's and the anger still boiled. Yet, he wasn't in Westeros anymore. He knew that he was somewhere else he just couldn't understand how or why this had happened. Or what had brought him here. The hallways here felt cramped and he almost returned back to his rooms but he stopped when he saw someone that he also did see on his ventures down the halls. A young man, perhaps nearly the same age as he and yet - he wasn't entirely sure who he was. They hadn't even exchanged names before. "You still haven't told me how I got here." He said it like a demand, with all of the backing of the North behind it as he held his eyes. "You know how to get back to Westeros, why won't you tell me?"

@killjoysanonymous gets a starter! robb + margaery

The Young Wolf, the King in the North. It all feels so stupid now. He's more like a kicked dog than a wolf. He was meant to ride south, save his father and his sisters, be the king that the North deserved. Instead he's.... well. Whatever this is. Fatherless, motherless, lost in the world and a stranger in his own home.

Spring travels North with the arrival of Margaery Tyrell. An alliance that Robb never would've thought would be made, and yet here she is. Here they are. News of what had happened in King's Landing reached them before she did.

Sanctuary was freely given. An alliance was freely given. It's the political match that Robb should've always gone for but had turned down the first time. It had been his downfall then. He wouldn't make the same mistake twice.

Robb hesitates before he knocks on Margaery's door, waiting for her to allow him entry. He holds a bundle of fur and wool-- Margaery is a southern girl, unaccustomed to the cold of the North. The warm cloak he'd had made for her is a peace offering as much as it is a gift.

"My Lady," he says when she opens the door, nodding his head a little to her. "I brought you this. I'd imagine it's much colder here than you're used to." He pauses a moment. "I thought we might take a walk together, if you're willing."

[fearlessmuses]

🐺 ───── she wanted to be there for her family and everyone was depending upon the stark name to provide for them here. what she did know was that one person who would help them through anything was her brother, he was smart, special, far better at war and tactics than she would be. "robb...." his name fell easy as she reached his room a smile spread across her features as she stood as planted as she could in that moment. "how are you?" and honest inquiry after all this family had fast. all he had faced.

@denydefeat ♥ for a starter from sansa stark for robb stark

[cthoniian]

a woman of grace and beauty, poised and charming - but he had known her from childhood. known her when her knees were a bit more knobbly and less shapely, known her when there was a gap between her front teeth. while she had always been suited more for the company of sansa and jeyne, having missed the company of her older brother’s - she had oft watched her and jon train. then later the boys as they’d grown. but he was a man grown now, and jon sent to the wall. but war was coming.

long had she been promised to him, but he was something else now. he was lord of winterfell. he was the eldest son of ned stark. and the tides of war were rising. winter would come. war to precede it. and he would be called to make decisions he felt little prepared to. a boy of such honour was a rarity perhaps, but he was not without flaws. that same honour led him to make decisions that might make him a good person, but a poor leader.

but there was one here in his burgeoning court who knew to play these games of thrones. while he did not hover for his mothers advice, he did seek the advice of his betrothed. finding her in the yard where his youngest brother had been playing with shaggydog, he fell into step beside her. waiting until the two creatures, half wild boy and wolf - were just out of earshot before he spoke quietly.
