[crownsuited]

starter for @baratheonburnt 

it’s no one’s fault but his own .  he’s hardly paying attention when the group of children run by ,  parting in his path like a sea until one doesn’t notice him and slams into his front side ,  spilling his coffee down his chin ,  neck and shirt as he raises it to his lips for a drink .  the boy is gone in a blink ,  of course ,  the mess he’s left behind forgotten and renly can hardly bring himself to be mad about it .  chuckling softly ,  he approached the nearest shop ,  intruding on someone at their table .  “ excuse me ,  but could i just borrow some napkins , ” the question is a courtesy ,  and he’s reaching for the dispenser on the table before they’ve answered .

𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧  :  the  workspace  of  the  royal  seamstress,  the  red  keep,  king’s  landing,  the  crownlands. 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞  :  tenth  day,  mid  year,  300  a.c. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡  :  sansa  stark  (  @gentlewlf​​  ).

though  the  similarities  between  the  cousins  began  and  ended  with  their  shared  name,  there  was  still  an  element  of  reverence  that  was  owed  to  house  baratheon  of  dragonstone  due  to  their  close  relationship  to  the  crown  ─  it  was  a  relationship  that  could  only  grow  more  distant  with  time  as  the  shared  blood  between  the  brothers  would  be  stretched  with  the  addition  of  new  families  to  the  royal  family  but  knowing  the  truth  behind  their  ❛  cousins  ❜  parentage,  shireen  understood  that  the  continuation  of  the  legitimate  line  of  house  baratheon  depended  on  them  and  their  uncle  renly,  if  he  ever  married.  their  mother  had  insisted  on  digging  out  an  old  dress  from  her  time  in  highgarden  for  them  to  wear  in  the  hopes  that  a  bejeweled  frock  might  distract  a  man  from  their  unsightly  scarring  but  all  that  the  dress  had  succeeded  in  doing  was  making  them  look  like  a  child  in  their  mother’s  clothing  and  they  found  that  they  could  do  without  the  additional  scrutiny  that  the  dress  brought  them.

(  the  dress  had  since  been  kept  in  their  trunk  but  the  queen  mother  had  sent  one  of  her  maids  to  look  through  their  things  that  morning  and  the  woman  had  tsk’ed  loudly,  decreeing  that  one  dress  was  simply  not  enough  to  last  through  the  entire  week  of  festivities  and  that  the  one  that  they  had  already  worn  was  considered  obsolete  in  fashion,  too  outdated  for  a  cousin  of  the  king.  )

with  only  ten  days  left  to  the  start  of  the  celebrations,  they  had  been  dragged  into  the  makeshift  workspace  of  the  royal  seamstress,  stepping  over  rolls  of  fabric  to  get  to  the  small  dais  where  they  now  stood.  the  woman,  after  she  had  gotten  over  her  fear  of  accidentally  brushing  against  their  scarred  neck,  had  been  relentless  with  her  measuring  tapes  and  pins  and  color  charts  ─  she  was  currently  holding  up  a  mustard  yellow  against  their  face,  squinting  to  decipher  if  the  color  was  complimentary  or  not,  when  shireen  had  grunted  in  protest,  shifting  slightly  as  a  pinned  poked  their  side.  ❝  good  woman,  i’d  rather  not  look  like  a  trussed  up  pig,  if  you  please  !  it’s  not  like  i  need  any  more  reason  for  someone  to  stare.  ❞  the  seamstress  turned  away  with  a  loud  huff,  stomping  rather  impolitely  to  the  back  rooms  to,  hopefully,  find  a  better  fabric  when  the  shuffling  of  feet  met  their  ears.  awkwardly  hobbling  on  the  dais  until  they  could  turn  to  face  the  entrance,  they  made  a  small  noise  of  surprise  at  the  person  who  stood  behind  them,  cheeks  coloring  slightly  in  embarrassment.

❝  lady  sansa  !  are  you  here  to  check  on  your  wedding  dress  ?  i  fear  i  may  have  frustrated  the  seamstress  by  being  a  wiggling,  impertinent  child,  as  she  called  me.  ❞  they  had  been  successful,  thus  far,  in  avoiding  the  unfortunate  bride - to - be,  though  their  reluctance  to  hold  a  polite  conversation  with  sansa  stark  had  nothing  to  do  with  the  woman  herself  but  rather  with  joffrey,  who  they  were  determined  to  evade  for  as  long  as  possible.  he  had  never  been  kind  to  them,  even  as  children,  and  while  they  did  not  believe  that  the  lady  sansa  could  be  as  depraved  as  their  not - cousin,  shireen  did  not  want  a  repeat  of  what  had  happened  the  last  time  joffrey  had  cornered  them,  a  knife  pressed  against  their  scarred  cheek  in  morbid  curiosity.  ❝  ...  apologies  if  i  am  cutting  into  your  time  with  the  seamstress.  the  queen  mother  does  not  think  my  dress  is  suitable  enough  for  the  wedding.  ❞  it  was  more  like  shireen,  themself,  was  not  suitable  for  the  image  that  needed  to  be  presented  to  the  rest  of  westeros  ─  dark  haired  and  solemn  beside  a  line  of  glittering,  golden  lannisters.

Season 3 is the best Game of Thrones season and always will be, and I will fight you on this tbh

[highgardcnrose-blog]

Kings Landing had become a lonely place for her and there had been some vague hope within her that Dragonstone would not prove to be the same. Part of her knew that there was ever chance that such a hope might prove to be in vain but she had always tried to balance optimism with pragmatism. It was an awfully dire world if hope was set aside so completely. Footsteps were light as she moved through the halls, the movements of her skirt only making a light whisper as she did. Some might have found the castle rather dreary with all its greys but it was a place she had been excited to see when letters sent between her and Stannis’ daughter had caught hold of her imagination. Thus far she had not been too far off in her vision of the place but when she had foreseen herself standing it its halls it had been in far happier times, rather than the uncertain ones they found themselves in now. Catching sight of a figure approach, shoulders squared slightly in preparation for meeting friend or foe but as recognition dawned upon her she called out happily. “Shireen!”

After eyes of practising smiles it was all too easy for her to place one onto her lips regardless of whether it was back by any sort of genuine sentiment or not but the one she aimed at the brunette, lit up dainty features in a way she never quite managed to achieve if it was false. “I must confess I am rather glad to see a friendly face.” There was a clear meaning to her words when plenty around her were familiar but how many of them she could still count as friends or even allies was no doubt a number that was waning. But things with the young Baratheon had always be blessedly easy, despite how her marriages had thrown her from side to side when it came to being anything close to allies. Still, Margaery had always been a firm believer that an allegiance could exist between solely two people - after all, was it not simply an agreement to support one another regardless of the situation? - and the fondness she held for the other woman made it all too easy for her to envision herself moving heaven and earth for her should she ever need to.

@baratheonshireen

[ofvelaryons]

❝ You did not choose right. ❞

Violet eyes shimmered with anger that she did not bother to attempt to conceal, aimed solely at the woman who had the audacity to question the merit of her decisions.  Flawless features curl into a look of distaste as she draws her head up and straightens her shoulders when her pride and stubbornness had always been her armour in this world. Words leave her lips, as melodic as ever but this time there is an icy bite to them that cannot be missed. “Forgive me if I do not listen to someone childless when it comes to what is best for my daughters.”

( for a moment her heart had fluttered within her chest and she had wondered if this stag can know her people so well as to sense that the Velaryon had made the wrong choice of heart, leaving behind a man who could have loved her. but it was safer to interpret it as a involving her daughters when thoughts of Richard were always so dangerous )

Any pretence of civility she might have been tempted to uphold had been well and truly cast aside and the golden haired woman found herself freeing her tongue of its usual constraints - she had no qualms about unleashing some sharp words when her own pride was smarting at the notion of not doing right by her girls. “If their father had not made the choice to side with your family, perhaps he would still be alive to aid me in choosing the best path for our children. But as he is not, my judgement will have to suffice.”

[swcrnsword]

❝ We cannot always have what we want, no matter how much we want it… ❞

Something about her words resonate within him and the warrior finds himself stilling slightly to give them the attention that they deserve. Heavy brow furrows as he weighs his own words, fighting to pull his own thoughts into line on the matter when he had replaced his own wants with the need to do what was right for the greater good. The needs of the many vastly outweighing anything that he might have wanted for himself. “Perhaps not. It is the burden that all of us living through such times must bear” It seemed only right that they should shoulder the responsibility and set aside personal gain in favour of ensuring that they would all live.

( his own desires had been set aside years ago from the first battle he had followed Robb into, sacrificing whatever vague hope he might have had for a wife or family to serve the Young Wolf ) 

Flint grey eyes turned to the stag that he counted among his closest friends - one he had come to trust after seeing the regard that his King placed in her. As a man who spent most of his days watching over the King he had not missed the glances nor words exchanged between the two and hoped for nothing more than them being able to realise such emotions. Words came out in a low rumble, lest anyone overhear but the person he intended but encouragement was still clear within them. “But I do not think that what you want is that far out of your grasp. You just need the courage to reach out and take it, Shireen.”

[sandsncke]

❛ we may not survive this. in fact, our chances are slim. ❜

Perhaps the words should have struck some fear into her heart for reminding her of her own mortality but candour was not something that could ever shake her to her soul when it had been a foundation of her life for some time. Acknowledging the truth was simply a step closer to acceptance and if her fate was to be dying in the vast expanse of The North, a land devoid of the vibrancy of her home, then so be it. There was no shame to the life she had led and a part of her had always known that her end would be that of a warrior. Meeting the Seven would be easy known that she had defended her own and more.

 If asked the sand snake was not sure she would even be able to confess if there was anything left in the world that she truly feared and the supposedly deadly Night King was no different. “Death has ceased to daunt me.”

“We fight until our last breaths.”

[killthebxy]

does Jon feels the need to protect Shireen?

          nonnie, that is the understatement of the century. though they don’t have much interaction in book!canon (and in show!canon i believe they have exactly….. zero?), i have no doubt Jon looks at this child and 1) it breaks his heart, because no child should ever look so sad, and 2) it infuriates him slightly because Selyse mostly treats her like a block of ice, and 3) it makes him sad because it is so nostalgic and looking at her is the same as recalling he will never see his little siblings again, and 4) for all of these he wants to keep her safe and warm and make sure she knows she’s loved and that she is so much more than just the rightful heir to some ugly chair made of a thousand melted swords. 

          though, at the same time, he would never approach her first nor so informally because, again, she is the heir and not only he is a bastard himself, but the Night’s Watch takes no part in the politics of the realm — and also he kind of pissed off her father by refusing to take Winterfell for him, and also sweet-talked him into letting him have the free folk to the point where Stannis Baratheon, of all people, tells him that he haggles like a crone with a codfish. and let me just conclude by mentioning that brief scene where Val is terrified of Shireen because, to her people, greyscale is absolutely dreadful, and Jon (who even canonically has a little crush on Val) has a moment of being like wth is wrong with you this is a little girl you’re talking about if you don’t wanna snuggle her i will???? — so, yes, he is very much protective of Shireen even if openly he may not always show it.

❛ i like it when you smile. come here. everything will be all right. ❜

Fondness was perhaps something dangerous to indulge in when there was a war raging and seemingly far more foes against them all than simply one another. There was no guarantee that any of them would be fortunate enough to remain breathing at the end of whatever the future would bring for them and the logical part of the little rose cried out for self preservation. For her to harden her soft heart enough that it would let no one else in when she had already become far too accustomed to loss and even if there had been only tentative bonds between her and her two husbands, their deaths had still left a lasting impact.

( She was not quite sure if she could stomach losing Shireen when the Baratheon had managed to earn herself a place in her heart that almost rivalled the love she had for her brothers and sister)

And yet despite some perhaps labelling it foolish for her to open her heart a risk it coming away bruised, Margaery could not give up on the comfort and reassurance she gained from her family and friends. The words given to her by the stag simply reaffirm that she was right to allow herself to let some enter into her heart and a smile lit up soft features. “Then it is just as well that your presence will always give me something too smile about.” Graceful steps carried her closer to the other girl to embrace her. “I have faith that between us we can somehow make it right, even if it seems out of our reach now.”

❝ I do not want to imagine a world in which you are not you. ❞

Solemness came over him at her words while as grateful as he was for them, the warrior wished that she had never uttered them. He had long since come to terms with what he had always assumed would be his fate in this war - to not return from it - but he had never quite been comfortable in the knowledge that there would be many that he would be leaving behind. His brothers would perhaps go on without him and he knew that his sisters were strong enough to but for some reason others had allowed him into their lives and despite all his stoicism, bonds had been forged.

( there was nothing heroic or gallant in leaving those who you cared for grieving and mourning but it was a price he had always considered himself willing to pay )

Perhaps drinking by the fireside had been a bad idea, the flickering light bringing out more honesty in the two of them where they usually preferred jests and insults. As such he almost can’t accept her words at first, deflection rolling forth. “Do not go getting soft on me now, Baratheon.” A gulp is taken from his ale as he decides that her friendship means more than that to him and she deserved more than for him to brush off words that were well intended and far kinder than he deserved. “Nor I you.”
