Some notes on Ring of Fire Ch. 4

Obviously I’m playing around with canon a little more than usual, and I don’t think I’ve seen this particular scenario written before, where Jaime returns to King’s Landing just as Tyrion arrives with the Golden Company. I actually think this is relatively plausible in TWOW depending on how LSH plays out. 

I tried to stay canon compliant with everything published so far - HOWEVER per the wiki I’m already contradicting a few things from the TWOW sample chapters. (I guess Mace Tyrell is going to get wrecked at Storm’s End rather than at King’s Landing) I have not read these sample chapters and they’re technically not published yet therefore they do not count. :p 

Given the LSH scenario I proposed in earlier chapters, where Illyn Payne mounts a rescue before Brienne can enact any of her own plans, Jaime would be hurt and furious enough to send her away and go back to KL. I do think that’s the only scenario where he would stay angry with her for any length of time. We’re going with worst -case scenarios at every opportunity here!

I think we pretty consistently agree that Jon Connington is going to hear the city bells and burn down King’s Landing, igniting the Wildfire catches under the city. Obviously this makes KL the worst possible place for Jaime to be right now, therefore I put him there. 

Is there any satire intended of the GOT episode “The Bells” in this scenario? Actually no. I refused to watch that shitshow when it aired, and I’m only vaguely familiar with what happens there. Feel free to compare/contrast though.

Yes, I did want to portray the vision of two figures fighting the Mountain, one of them in the Hound’s helmet. What’s an entirely plausible way to make this J/B rather than Cleganebowl? This. I do totally think this will play out in canon somehow. Brienne in the Hound’s helm just feels right, and her build is repeatedly compared directly to his, probably for just this reason.

I meant to give Brienne the Hound’s Helm two chapters ago. I mean, I totally did that. You just didn’t notice it. *Jedi Mind Wave*

Tyrion’s totally-justified rage is absolutely going to lead to a clusterfuck of a slaughter at KL when things spin out of control. What he’s going to do about it I’m less sure of. My approach here is, double-down on the rage and self-justify. He’s in full ADWD mode here, and I found him completely insufferable in that book. 

One show parallel I did intentionally make was that the Cersei/Tyrion faceoff at the end of Season 7 should absolutely have been a Jaime/Tyrion faceoff. THOSE are the siblings who will not be able to harm each other no matter how mad they are. Tyrion/Cersei, not so much. 

I try to keep everything true to the POV I’m writing in, so Jaime’s take on things is not always right. However, given that Varys’s supposed Aegon scheme revolves around a mother not recognizing her own damn baby, and GRRM just showed this exact same baby-swap completely failing to fool Gilly, I think we can safely assume that Jaime is right on the money here. 

So why did Brienne end up going to King’s Landing rather than going North? Next chapter is her perspective, so we’ll get a look at it there.

I do enjoy having Jaime heart-eyeing Brienne’s magnificence and immediately getting into an argument with her. That’s my disaster son.

do u have any ronald crushing on arya/jealous gendry outtakes 👀👀 as always, love the fury thank u for writing it ❤

so not QUITE what you asked for (sorry!!) but the Spirit is there! i had to cut myself off because legit just almost re-wrote all of ch. 22 from ronald’s POV lol

warnings for vague (but probably unsurprising) fury spoilers, a mention of ronnet hitting ronald/ronnet being a piece of shit, and gendry being victim of slander 8(

He hates Gendry Baratheon before he ever meets him. His father’s told them all enough: he’s some grifter from the gutters of King’s Landing, who had kissed enough Targaryen ass to land himself a Lordship. And that’s not even the worst of it all. Ronald had never been to court, but they had a cousin there named Rodolph who always wrote. And Rodolph said Gendry Baratheon’d gone and probably strong-armed Arya Stark into marrying him. They said he dragged her out of the Great Hall, ripped her right out of her betrothed’s arms. The whole court thought him unmannerly and crass and brutish–all the worst parts of Robert Baratheon, as well as his look. His uncle said the only reason the union between Lady Stark and Gendry Baratheon was allowed was because the King was a bastard upstart himself, and the lower born supported their own. Ronald had stared at the wall for that part, fists clenched.

Ronald’s father hadn’t taken any of the news from King’s Landing well. And he took the news about the wedding even less–”bred his bitch soon enough,” had been the exact words. Ronald hadn’t liked that, much. Gendry Baratheon sounded like a piece of gutter shit, but highborn Ladies shouldn’t be called dogs. And it sounded like Arya Stark had suffered enough indignity already.

After the rumors came the announcement that they’d have to host them. Ronald wasn’t privy to his family’s political affairs, but he noticed more ravens going in and out than usual during the month they prepared for House Baratheon’s arrival–east, south, and north. Whatever was happening, his father didn’t like it.

The week before their arrival had been even worse–the general mayhem of preparing for a host of fifty-something men, but also the way his father and uncle had been acting. They were both more short-tempered than usual, slamming doors and throwing books into fires. Ronald made the mistake of asking about one of their conversations and gotten a split lip for his trouble. He stopped asking after that.

The night before they were meant to arrive, father calls him into his solar.

“We can’t trust him, Ronald,” Ronnet says, fingers crossed over his mouth.

Ronald hadn’t been invited to sit, so he just stands behind the chairs across from his father’s desk. “Yes, father.”

Ronnet’s gaze flickers up. “How much do you know of our House’s relationship with the Baratheons?”

“They stole our land,” he says without having to think about it. Ronald doesn’t remember much about his grandfather, for whom he was named, but he does remember the hatred with which he spoke of Robert Baratheon. Nine-tenths of House Connington’s holdings had been dispersed, the majority split between House Mertyns, Rogers, and Wylde. All because Robert had a temper tantrum.

“That’s correct.” His father shifts in his seat. “Because you are my blood, and one day I may legitimize you should I never have a true son-”

Ronald swallows hard.

“-it’s your right to know what this visit means.” Ronnet drops his hands from in front of his mouth. “We have pledged support to Gendry’s claim because Jon demanded it. But our cousin is still in Essos, and did not realize the unfortunate history repeating in the Stormlands. I’ve since informed him.”

Ronald’s not sure what’s meant by all this, but he wisely stays silent. 

“I suspect Gendry Baratheon is coming to pillage our coffers and further disgrace our House by taking our status as landed knights. He is here for what could be your birthright, Ronald.” Father sneers. “Lowborns like him care little for honor or tradition. And he’s already proven himself bloodthirsty and soulless by allying with Daenerys Targaryen after she killed half of King’s Landing. I have no doubt he will find any reason to take the Roost from us and give it to one of his cutthroat bootlickers.” He clenches his jaw. “We must not trust this man, or any of his retinue, do you understand?”

“I understand.”

His father leans back and stares at him for a long while, as though trying to see how honest he’s being. Ronald straightens his posture. After a moment, he nods. “While they are here, you are to remain out of sight and mind. No doubt he’d find your mere presence an insult to him, and we cannot give him any excuse to punish our family.”

Ronald grinds his teeth. Of course high and mighty Gendry Baratheon would take any issue with a bastard who did as he was supposed to do and stayed a bastard. “I understand.”

Father looks at him once more, but then waves his hand dismissively. 

Ronald tries to smile. “Goodnight, father.”

“Yes, yes. Go now.”

–

The day they arrive, he’s told to stand in the back with the servants–it wouldn’t due to offend the Lord Mighty on High by ruining his view. He’s intent to stare at the dirt the entire time out of defiance, but when people in the courtyard start whispering, his curiosity gets the better of him. Ronald’s not tall, and so he has to shoulder a few people to the side in order to see the party arriving. The first person he sees can only be the Hound– the infamous lapdog of the Lannisters (yet another reason why Gendry Baratheon is scum). He’s a fearsome sight, half his features unrecognizable under the thick webbing of scar tissue. After him comes…a woman? in blue and gold-tinted armor, her face dour and Ronald has never heard of ladies in armor and so he is caught staring for a moment–the same way one might stare at a fire-eater or a juggler or something.

Then comes the man who can only be Gendry Baratheon. Immediately, Ronald thinks his reputation is well-earned. He can’t make out Lady Stark yet, but he can tell that Gendry dismounts his ugly-looking horse and moves forward without offering to help his pregnant wife down from hers. Ronald reluctantly admits that he’s big, his lumbering frame a build found on the villains in songs. The menacing appearance is enhanced by his shortly cropped hair–the sort of style worn by criminals or hard laborers. Gendry frowns when he addresses his father, not even attempting a genial greeting as befitting a Lord. Father was right when he said Baratheon was there to look down at them.

A slight figure steps forward, then, and Ronald’s eyes go wide. 

His first thought is that he’s never seen a woman like her. She wears a man’s clothes, hair in an unraveling braid over her shoulder and still slightly wet from the hard rainfall an hour or so ago. When she walks, it’s with an easy grace that reminds him of cats, but there’s something dangerous about her, too. Ronald looks at her waist and sees at least two weapons–a dagger and a sword of some kind. Her grey eyes are striking even from where he stands.

He hears his father greet her as Lady Arya and his mouth goes dry. It’s not fair that she’s in this situation. That she’s to be a mother to this terrible man’s child, instead of with her real betrothed in Dorne. 

The usurper lord walks into the gates of his home (without offering his pregnant wife an arm of escort!) and Ronald hates him that much more.

Hairspray AU: Brandrick

Bran is in a wheelchair but loves music and the idea of dancing so he learns how to move his wheelchair controlled enough that it goes to the beat. As time goes on, he learns how to do tricks like wheelies and stuff.

 And then, there's a show: The Jon Connington Show. There are teenagers on the show, and they’re all locals and go to the same school as Bran! And it becomes his dream to be on the show. He races home most days, pushed as fast as they can manage by his best friend Meera so they can catch the opening roll call, which ends with Podrick, Bran’s favourite.

 One day, there are auditions to be the new replacement on The Jon Connington Show, and Bran goes to the audition, but is rejected for being disabled and supporting integration. Because he attended the auditions, Bran is late for school and gets detention. He wheels himself there, to find the ‘Negro Day’ performers practising, and he sees them dancing to music. He stays in the corner so he doesn’t get in their way, but is bobbing and stuff to the beat anyway. They seem him, and one of them, Missandei, says ‘Hey, wanna join in?’ and move some tables out the way.  Bran warms up for a minute in the space doing basic movements in the Wheelchair before he starts doing tricks, but the moment he does they start Losing Their Minds, and they talk about dancing and about The Jon Connington Show, Missandei introduces herself as one of the dancers on Negro day, and they decide that this kid is really nice and actually cool and they’re going to show him some moves for when he doesn’t have the room for tricks, and he thanks them a lot.  Later on, Meera and Bran are in the corridor and Pod bumps into them, saying ‘I hope I didn’t dent your wheels’ and Bran’s on Cloud Nine, for the rest of the day.

Soon afterwards, there’s a performance that Podrick gives at the school and the show producers are talent scouting. Bran places himself near the edge of the Whites section, so he can talk to Missandei and she tells him he can use the moves now to get the producers’ attention. And Bran starts to Really Move™. As more people notice him, the more space he gets, until he has enough room to do his more complicated moves and tricks. Meanwhile, Podrick is looking at this boy with amazement, excited to meet this incredible young man.  Jon Connington insists that with moves like that, they need to put him on the show. And that very soon, he was on TV.

Bran becomes one of the most popular performers, with people trying to copy his look and fans everywhere, which threatens Myrcella, daughter of one of the station managers, Cersei. This is because he has the opportunity to win the show’s dance contest and is garnering the attention of Podrick more than she is.  Podrick and Bran have been learning how to alter their moves for one another so that they can dance and develop ideas together, and start really enjoying each other’s company.

Bran becomes so popular, that he starts getting spokesperson offers, and Catelyn, his mother, becomes his manager, and has to be coaxed out of the house to represent him, but once she gets out, she has great quality time with her son and gets a new spring in her step.

Bran finally gets round to introducing Meera and Missandei and they immediately hit it off. Later, Missandei and her little brother Marselen bring Bran Meera and Podrick to a party at Dynamic Drogo’s shop, but Catelyn turns up and tries to take him home. Drogo quickly steps in and diffuses the situation so Bran can stay.  Later that night, Drogo tells everyone that ‘Negro Day’ has been cancelled. Bran gets angry, goes quiet, and then suggests they march for integration. Podrick, however, is much more worried about how it would affect his career and leaves.

Once Catelyn gets back home, she decides she wants to get intimate with Ned, and gets all dolled up and ready for seducing, only when she enters, Cercei is there, trying to do just that(and failing miserably, although Cat doesn’t notice). She accuses Ned of cheating and forbids Bran to go back to the show. Bran talks to Ned, who decides to fix things with Cat, and does so successfully, Catelyn’s ban on the show forgotten.

Bran manages to sneak out of the house while his parents are asleep to join the protest. he holds a sign at the front of the march while Meera pushes him along. They reach a roadblock, Bran doesn’t take it well and bops a policeman guarding it with his sign. A fight brakes out as Bran and Meera make their escape out the back of the crowd.  They end up back at Meera’s house, and Meera hides Bran in the fallout shelter in the basement. Meera’s Mother finds out, calls the police and ties Meera to her bed for bad behaviour.

Ned bails out the arrested protesters, and they go save Meera and Bran, when Missandei and Meera admit they’ve fallen for each other. Meanwhile, Podrick has shown up at Bran’s house, hoping that he’d be there, only to find Catelyn, and he realises how much he loves Bran.

The next day, The Dance Contest is underway, and They all go to a lot of trouble to sneak Bran into the building, primarily because the police are after him while Cersei rigs the contest in Myrcella’s favour.

Just as Myrcella is about to be named winner, Bran descends from the ceiling, putting a halt to the announcement and performs himself, in which Podrick starts dancing with him, including the moves they've adapted for one another’s abilities. Meera kisses Missandei in front of the live cameras, Podrick pulls Marselen onto the stage to dance and he performs his special moves, Jon Connington brings Khal Drogo onto the stage, even Catelyn comes out to the stage to dance, knowing she'll regret it if she doesn’t.

Their performance ends, and the votes are tallied again, with Marselen winning, resulting in the show being integrated. Cersei outs herself as having tampered with the votes and is fired. 

And finally, Podrick leans down to kiss Bran. Bran wraps his arms around Pod’s neck and Podrick stands up with Bran in his arms, and separate with smiles on their faces.

Also blaming JonCon and Dany for their opinions (and questions) on Elia more than they blame her shitty husband for literally cheating on her.

I mean the fun thing re joncon is that he gets trashed to hell and back because he's like AH SHE WASN'T WORTHY OF MY SILVER PRINCE but I mean he'd have thought that of literally any woman who got with rhaegar bc guess what he'd have been jealous except that there is a goddamned textual line after he has his ptsd dream about the bells where he blames himself for having lost the war and he's like 'because this this and that person died' and he goes in order of importance and like.... the last three are elia rhaenys and rhaegar so she's in the top three ppl he feels guilty about because if he didn't lose the battle of the bells according to him they'd still be alive so like he obviously doesn't REALLY hate her and dany.. i mean idk about dany but she knows what viserys told her and he's hardly reliable, but barristan calling her kitchen drab in comparison to ashara and cersei being like 'HOW DARE HE MARRY THAT FLAT CHESTED FEEBLE MINDED DORNISH PRINCESS' without even saying her name absolutely get no fandom hate for elia hatred? but somehow it's all on joncon who also raised her kid (I mean nvm the whole he could be fake or not as far as joncon is concerned and aegon is concerned she's his mother) and guess what there is literally no textual instance saying that he talked badly of her to him once bc aegon actually is like AAAND YEAH SHE WAS MY MOTHER SO WHAT so like... sorry but I'm really done with people being like focused on the only dude in there who's nowhere half as bad as that and is coincidentally not into women being THE WORST™ *rolls eyes*

Chapters of A Song of Ice & Fire - A Dance With Dragons - The Griffin Reborn For years afterward, Jon Connington told himself that he was not to blame, that he had done all that any man could do. His soldiers searched every hole and hovel, he offered pardons and rewards, he took hostages and hung them in crow cages and swore that they would have neither food nor drink until Robert was delivered to him. All to no avail. "Tywin Lannister himself could have done no more," he had insisted one night to Blackheart, during his first year of exile. "There is where you're wrong," Myles Toyne had replied. "Lord Tywin would not have bothered with a search. He would have burned that town and every living creature in it. Men and boys, babes at the breast, noble knights and holy septons, pigs and whores, rats and rebels, he would have burned them all. When the fires guttered out and only ash and cinders remained, he would have sent his men in to find the bones of Robert Baratheon. Later, when Stark and Tully turned up with their host, he would have offered pardons to the both of them, and they would have accepted and turned for home with their tails between their legs." He was not wrong, Jon reflected, leaning on the battlements of his forebears. I wanted the glory of slaying Robert in single combat, and I did not want the name of butcher. So Robert escaped me and cut down Rhaegar on the Trident. "I failed the father," he said, "but I will not fail the son."

Since Jon Connington is the one who has the trigger with bells, did the show combine Daenerys’ character with Jon Connington by the end? (Similar to how they combined Jon Snow with Aegon and Sansa with Jeyne Poole?)
