i love ned stark, but there's almost no way in hell that had he survived jon snow would be able to make radical calls like bringing the wildings through the wall.

for one, it's the political vacuum caused by the red wedding that allows jon to make most of these decisions relatively unchallenged by the starks or their bannermen, who have a longstanding hatred against the wildlings. for two, ned stark thematically represents a small 'c' conservative, too-traditional approach to feudal rulership that cannot cope with the changes disaster will bring. he abides by the feudal class system, he misbelieves in magic, and he expects his enemies to abide by a code of honour - all things that will be challenged by the long night. he has been lord of winterfell for 15 years and supped with lords like the umbers many a time, but never once with a wildling - it is hard to believe he'd have any inclination to help them. given his vested interests, and his general disbelief in magic, it's far more likely that ned would be tempted to heed bowen marsh's suggestion of blocking all the gates and waiting for winter to pass.

quite honestly, it's difficult seeing anyone helping the wildlings at all except for jon snow. no one else has that combination of experience living with them + compassion, especially towards those hated for birth status + rank, experience, respect & electoral fraud committing friends to be elected Lord Commander.

reminder that it’s called a song of ice AND fire (not ice versus fire). like it’s so ironic that it’s always “team jon” or “team dany” when the whole reason that jon and dany are going to meet is to unite the realm against the real enemy, rather than squabbling over their differences.

what if we don’t constantly pit these two kids against each other. what if we appreciate both of their roles in the story. what if we give both of them the love that they deserve. then what.

i remember in agot how much jon wanted to go back to winterfell and join robb's cause and help him be with him and i just cant help but think. robb probably wanted that too. in winterfell catelyn was not functional after bran's fall, his dad and sansa were gone, theon was with him but he had no role to make decisions like him. him and jon were the same age, got the exact same education from their father, they were equals in battle and mind. he would help with bran and rickon and he would help rule winterfell. after he leaves winterfell it's even worse because he's all alone, there is no person who would understand how much he grieves and how he feels other than jon. days and nights of thinking about getting him back, writing to him to be with him, wanting to tell him his plans and worries. he loved and trusted jon like he trusted no one, i think.

ASOIAF lovers as elements (part earth)

The Earth lovers are defined as stable and grounded, in most cases they may often come off as brute, rough around the edges, stern, and scary even but with time you will notice other softer qualities

The core ways an Earth lover would show their love for you is through loyalty, supportiveness, and protectiveness

The Earth lover can further be split into different subgroups where they can fall in all categories, some categories or be more of one than a other

They can be like the mighty oak tree where their love is deeply rooted and no force can ever come between their love for you. They are extremely loyal to you and would never be unfaithful to you. Never even faltering for a second if anything no matter how tempting tried to come between you two

Or they can be like the plant. In order for most plants to grow and bloom into something strong and beautiful they need to be in the best conditions and for your lover your relationship is the plant and they are the gardener. This type of Earth lover is very nurturing, ensuring you are well taken care of in every aspect of your life. Their top priority is your wellbeing and happiness , even spoiling you a bit because they never give you anything but the best. Their loyalty also shows here as well as patience. More than likely your marriage would be due to a political agreement thus you two would start off as strangers. They will be patient and not force or rush your growing relationship and they will be loyal, staying devoted no matter how long it takes for you two to be finally familiar and comfortable with each other

Like the mountain the earth lover is usually has steadfast and stubborn in personality. This may seem negative but it can also be positive. When trouble comes they are unyielding and refuse to buckle under pressure and will be quick to act as a sanctuary and anchor to keep you grounded so you won’t fall. You can always count to lean on them as they are unshaken and ready to take on issues

earthquake are terrifying, dangerous, and violent. The earth lover protection toward you is like an earthquake. Most of the time your earth lover prefers to stay silent and steady but the moment you are hurt, threaten, disrespected even they erupt in a terrifying and violent anger. So terrifying and violent it leaves not only the threat but any one else who’s witness this anger to be afraid. They respond so recklessly and violently immediately because they want no confusion in the slightest with how important you are to them and what will happen if someone tries to come between that

Earth lovers may seem unapproachable like a vast forest, intimidating like a mountain, or unyielding like a boulder, but they are also like a geode and if you take time to explore them getting to truly know them you’ll find beauty within them

Is it about the show or the books ?

In the show, it's crystal clear he wouldn't marry someone for their claim. And anyway the show is done, so I guess it's for the books.

As for the books, I know he's more politically involved. But honestly, if he becomes king in the North, it would be in a similar fashion as Robb, elected by the lords. But even if it happens, there are still Rickon and Bran. And they both have a better claim than Sansa and Jon.

And there are so many other reasons for not shipping Jonsa in the books... starting with Sansa being still a child.

Jon and Dany are 15, bisexual, with revolutionary ideals. They would be on tumblr. They would be mutuals

[jackoshadows]

The problem with the constantly repeated false fanon that Jon did not accept Stannis' offer of Winterfell because of Sansa is that it changes Jon's entire character, his narrative arc and cheapens the entire third act of ADwD.

If the reason Jon did not accept Winterfell was because of Sansa then his sworn oaths didn't matter to him does it? His duty to the NW didn't matter, right? He would have burned down the Winterfell Godswood and the old heart tree? He would have burned down Weirwoods? None of that mattered to him?

Not to mention how utterly absurdly farcical it is to state that while Catelyn wanted Sansa removed from the line of inheritance to Winterfell, it was Jon Snow who refused Stannis' offer because he thought it rightly belonged to Sansa!!

Just think about this... CATELYN! The woman who was all about her children! Who dearly loved Sansa. Who loathed Jon Snow because she thought he was a danger to her children's inheritance. Who secretly released an important political prisoner to save Sansa and Arya.

I think we can ALL agree that no one loves Sansa more than Catelyn. That there is no one who would fight more for Sansa's rights than Catelyn. This is the lady who bypassed Sansa and traded in Arya to a 22nd Frey son for a bridge. That is how important Sansa is to her. This is indisputable. This is canon.

When CATELYN is saying that Sansa should not get Winterfell as long as she is married to Tyrion, there are actually people here saying that Jon Snow is more interested in Sansa getting Winterfell than Catelyn?!!

And yet every other day this fanfiction shows up on the Jon Snow tag and it's just so tiresome at this point.

There is an ENTIRE chapter (Because GRRM thought it important to explore this momentous decision!) in the book - Jon XII, ASoS - where Jon considers the pros and cons of accepting Stannis' offer.

A beautiful, sad, bitter, angry, emotional chapter ending on a triumphant note when Ghost - with his red eyes and white fur, a gift from the Old Gods - makes an appearance and reminds Jon of a Weirwood and the Old Gods and the oaths he swore before the Old Gods. Reminding him that there was no way he could burn down the Winterfell Godswood to accept Stannis' offer.

This is something that is glossed over and deliberately ignored - Stannis' offer was conditional on Jon having to BURN DOWN THE WINTERFELL GODSWOOD.

These are all important plot points and adds to the characterization of several characters. Stannis' fanatical and political devotion to the Lord of Light which fails to gain him an ally in Jon Snow as Lord of Winterfell, Jon's Snow's own devotion to the Old Gods and even someone like the Magnar of Thenn who is willing to convert to the Lord of Light to gain land and titles this side of the Wall with Stannis' support.

If Jon Snow didn't care about his oaths and his duty to the NW, then he wouldn't have waited till the end of the book to save his little sister married off to the sadistic Ramsay Bolton, right?

Then there is the fact that characters like Robb Stark and Catelyn Stark keep getting dragged down as not loving Sansa as much as Jon Snow!! Despite their anger at Sansa's forced marriage and both Robb and Catelyn wanting to kill Tyrion. A clear contrast to how in the books, Jon Snow is more concerned about his friend Tyrion's fate as a kinslayer than the sister forcefully married off to him.

There is also the fact that Robb and Cat's decision to remove Sansa from the line of inheritance was an entirely political decision. Catelyn loves Sansa so much and yet even she agrees that this is necessary. There is no way any Stark or Northerner would want Winterfell to fall into Lannister hands. It's the same argument Stannis uses.

So the fanon that Jon alone out of all them wants Sansa to get Winterfell renders him politically incompetent - when we know this is not so and that he is actually more attuned to Northern politics than Stannis and even Robb.

This is why he uses Sansa as an excuse for refusing Stannis' offer but when Stannis actually considers giving Winterfell to one of his lords or to another Northman, then Jon has an opinion and a suggestion and he proposes Crowfood Umber - because Umber is a Stark ally.

This is what is all lost - so much about Jon Snow as a character, his political side, the importance he gives to the Old Gods, his oaths, the NW, his duty to the realm of men instead of to Winterfell - in favor of making that decision of his ENTIRELY about Sansa.

Sigh. I just so desperately wish that GRRM gives us TWoW so that we can go back to discussing the actual characters instead of drowning in made up fanon that mutilates and mangles these characters in favor of propping up other characters.
