#jaime why did u stop him

[girl-intrigued]

Did not expect a Mafin fight scene today but glad that it will lead to Marta being brave and even considering a life away from her familia and with Fina

P.S: Shoutout to Jaime for being supportive also he should've killed Jesús

[melrosing]

is there evidence other than the Weirwood dream that Jaime will wield Widow's Wail?

the weirwood dream is a very strong hint but in this particular instance I think the most conspicuous evidence comes from outside the text itself lmao..... in fact two really stupid ass sources that I would never usually credit for anything but in THIS case....

gurm's livejournal suvudu cage matches for Jaime

yes im serious. for the uninitiated, grrm wrote a series of fanfic in which Jaime fights a variety of fantasy characters for a pan fandom bracket suvudu cage match series, u may have heard of the one in which Jaime slaughters Hermione Granger bc i for one will never stop talking about it. anyway it's not mentioned in that one, but in this journal entry (where Jaime fights a trial of seven), grrm equips Jaime with widow's wail.

now literally why would he do that if Jaime won't one day wield WW. there are plenty of other swords he could have given him. why not Oathkeeper, the blade that has actually passed through his hand?? but grrm didn't even have to mention what sword it was in the first place, he doesn't when Jaime attacks Hermione lol. so it seems to me that grrm is treating Jaime wielding WW as a foregone conclusion.

the fuckin show

Jaime wields widow's wail in the show. like in grrm's blog, his suddenly taking up the sword goes entirely unremarked upon (like does anyone mention this at any point whatsoever), so functionally there was no need to give Jaime the sword. it is nothing more than a visual easter egg, and the writers don't even seem to know what they want you to think when you notice it.

however they did understand at some point in the making of the series that the two swords were meant to represent something big. the first episode of S4 literally opens to an extended sequence of Tywin overseeing the making of oathkeeper and widow's wail, with music playing in the background etc etc.... like the episode is literally CALLED Two Swords. I could juuust about say ok sure write off the opening scene as a symbolic moment in which the Lannisters melt down the Stark legacy, but that doesn't explain why they'd also name the episode Two Swords. I think like everything else the writers knew this meant something once but didn't know how to follow through and didn't care to. there's a weirdly similar example in their using the (abridged) Maggy the Frog prophecy as the prologue to their opening episode of S5, where once again you are given the impression that something of great import is being conveyed that will have huge implications for the rest of the story.... but no when it comes to Tommen's death, Dany's arrival, Cersei's demise etc, it isn't even mentioned.

so, needless to say. they do this. the show is a really bad source for most asoiaf analysis, but you can induce the odd detail even despite poor execution, and sometimes (as in this case) because of poor execution. there was no need to charge these swords with import if you're only going to stick one of them in the character's hand as an unremarked upon easter egg.

so in summary yeah if the actual symbolism within the text isn't enough, I think grrm's blog and that show are bizarrely effective sources

[ilynpilled]

edited for person im arguing with lol:

we do not excuse jaime for just being an inexperienced teen, we are acknowledging the reality of it straight up not being possible for him to teleport over from 7 to the drawbridge of 26 faster than it takes two men to finish scaling the walls of 26 (the text confirms twice that the scaling was happening already when jaime was murdering aerys) to prevent an order the text says he doesnt know about that also contradicts a command that he explicitly gives to his father’s men after hearing incomplete information about the state of the situation. and all this after he finishes committing one of the most significant oathbreakings in history and the most defining act of his life of murdering his own king to prevent a whole city from being nuked. he was left alone as the only kg to guard the red keep. there is a core issue here of him being unable to do all of this alone even if he had all the information. even if he tried to do everything in his power and had all the right suspicions and the knowledge to act he would have been unable to stop it. the text emphasizes this, it emphasizes that he was with the king, slitting his throat, to save a city, instead of being near or at the drawbridge at maegor’s (a knight of the kingsguard is positioned there usually for a reason). jaime was surrounded by the kg, experienced adults, who for two years enabled an erratic and paranoid tyrant to burn people alive, start a war by doing so, rape and abuse his wife, and place caches of wildfire across a city. and all this time these adults have told jaime nothing but “accept this, you swore to obey, stay near him. keep your oath.” but the person that has to be condemned for “incompetence” and “cowardice” (because, yes, based on all this information it is the only ground you have. there is no evidence of malicious intent or apathy of any sort. we know what information he has. we know what he thought during) is him. i dont even blame rhaegar, again, he expected to return “we will talk when i return”, and even finally do what was long overdue and deal with aerys, and he was likely confident he would because of a prophecy that i know concerned an existential threat to humanity, and he did not know what would happen at the trident and that his father would be so paranoid that he would lock elia and her children in the red keep (if you use the argument that jaime should know and think about everything his father may or may not do the very minute he is found murdering the king by the men that tell him, incorrectly, that the place is secured, and he should suspect that his order to spare everybody that yields is already being contradicted by a secret order of his father’s, then this same exact argument can be applied to rhaegar and he should have had a different strategy or a safety net, or been more cautious when it comes to the threat his father represents or straight up just been able to deal with him as if it is that easy. his family were just not allowed to leave with rhaella and viserys (who was named heir, with aegon effectively disinherited) as elia wanted because aerys felt like he was betrayed by dorne and lewyn after the trident (also speaks to what duty rhaegar even expected of jaime when he left. it is present in their last conversation. what threat he is aware of. we see what he tells him. both he and darry expect him to remain with the king at all times and serve as a hostage against tywin and keep aerys in check. they also know he is just one person)

why is jaime even singled out? not other kingsguard who knew he was in the city alone (post the trident or before the trident) and that aerys is a tyrannical threat (but my vows and orders wahh), not pycelle, not tywin, not the men that did the horrid action themselves. in order to absolve rhaegar of any and all responsibility when it comes to naivety or lack of foresight (neither flaw is a detriment to his moral character) u shift the blame and criticize jaime for the exact same thing in an even more absurdly unfair way. you guys want him to be someone this evil and apathetic from the beginning, with his guilt over failure rooted in that, when the whole point is that he stagnated and morally deteriorated due to how cynical all of this made him.

and regarding the argument that he is considered the most skilled kg by these people and so they rightfully think that he should be able to handle the red keep and all these responsibilities alone: “Selmy had never approved of Jaime's presence in his precious Kingsguard. Before the rebellion, the old knight thought him too young and untried; afterward, he had been known to say that the Kingslayer should exchange that white cloak for a black one.”

[gemini-sensei]

well I mean u did ask...

So what if Jaime meets a anti hero while patrolling or smth. They've been butting heads for a while and so one day after a fight (which jaime is always horny during) reader (i imagine her as chubby in a black widow type suit) pins him against the wall. And jaime no matter how respectful he is can't look her in the eye. His eyes are roaming her body. So she grabs his chin to make him look at her and he is super hard. The scarb tells him theres more blood rushing toward the nether regions and, somehow, the reader hears this and places hee hand on his hard on. Khaji Da opens a hole in Jaimes suit and before u know it Jaime is coming just from the small touch.

Yeah Idk what that was.... sorry for this whole paragraph in yr inbox

Never apologize for paragraphs in my inbox 💖✨️ I love it. Feel free to send paragraphs at any time.

On one hand, she's trying go do her own thing even if it's not abiding by the law and he's just trying to stop people from doing bad things. So what if she beat the shit out of some lowlife criminals after they robbed a lady? It's none of Blue Beetle's business. He can handle the big bads and shell take care of her community and the criminals who think they can pull a fast one over her. Thay doesn't stop Blue from trying to stop her from fighting fire with fire.

She effectively ends the fight when she pins him to the wall, smiling in his face from under her mask, which only covers the top half if her face. She wants him to know how unafraid she is. He doesn't intimidate her.

Fuck, even their fighting is flirtatious in the act itself. It's too sensual to just be fighting, not thay they'll ever admit to it. She's having fun playing games with him while he's trying to be serious and take her down.

Only for him to get hard and uncomfortable in his armor. He's holding still and not looking at her because her body packed into that skin-tight suit is too much for him to handle. Khaji is in his head telling him high levels of lood is flowing southward and that his penis is swelling beyond the means of the armor, so they have no other choice that to let it free. Otherwise if could hurt a lot more.

Reader thinks he's done this himself because why on earth would an alien, world destroying tech bug on his back do that? She's gotten him right where she wants him and shamelessly takes him into her hands. He's so turned in and while she holds his face forward, making him look at her while she pumps his cock and it doesn't take long for him to come all over her hand. She licks up his cum of her skin and hums, making him watch and he's burning up.

It takes all his will power not to pin her to the wall, unzip her suit, and fuck the daylight out of her. Even though it's all he wants at that very moment.

[suckerforcate]

AGHHH ure literally my favourite writer on here right now!! u write so amazingly!!

could i request a brienne x reader where it’s a long while after what happened with jaime and reader comes into brienne’s life -u can decide how- and reader is sweet and really really likes brienne which is why reader is a bit clingy. brienne is understandably a little cold and has her guard up and one day lashes out at reader because they’re just gonna leave her too anyway. later she sees reader crying to pod and she feels bad and instead of her apologizing reader apologizes for pushing things and brienne feels even worse and brienne explains her actions so reader promises to never leave her. That’s all. Thank you so much!!

Picnic?

Pairing: Brienne of Tarth x Reader

Word Count: 1080

Warning: None, hurt/comfort

A/n: Thank you so, so much!! I really liked the idea and I hope I did it justice.

Brienne had been part of Bran Starks Kingsguard for nearly two years now, and she was very happy that Podrick had been knighted and taken in the Kingsguard as well. Even if she would never admit it she would have missed him terribly. Other than her, Podrick was really open towards new people and always found new friends.

And one day he introduced Brienne to you. She felt that she was instantly drawn to you, but she forbid herself to ever feeling something like that. She didn't want it to go downhill, just like it did with Jamie.

You however, also felt drawn to her and acted on it. A lot. You loved spending time with her. Watching her fight was your favourite thing. Whenever you saw her walk around you accompanied her. Grabbing her arm and happily telling her about your day.

Sure you had noticed her coldness and that she had her guards up at all time. But you didn't take it personally and thought she just needed some time warming up. You never knew how she was treated in her live. Not just the Jamie-thing but also the general resentment people had against her. For you it was unthinkable that anyone could not like her.

You tried everything to warm her up and to look through her guard. You gifted her flowers, you invited her and Pod for dinner, you asked her to accompany you in the city. Most of the time she said no, but sometimes you felt you broke through to her, and she said yes. Still you wouldn't tire and try again and again.

You really thought you were making progress until one day everything went wrong.

It was such a beautiful and warm day, and you had woken up with the idea in your head to ask Brienne put for a picnic. Who could say no to a picnic?

So you prepared everything and went to search for her. Your heart made jumps as you saw her, as an exception not in armour. So you happily approached her and looped your arm through hers. You felt her tense at that, so you respected the boundary and took a step back. But the smile didn't fade. You still beamed at her.

"Brienne, I thought it would be the perfect day for a picnic? Would you like to accompany me? Pod could also come if you'd like." You saw her look annoyed at that and already braced yourself for the coming rejection but what came next was something you never expected.

"No, (Y/n). I do not want to go on a picnic with you. Could you please stop annoying me all the time? I know you're just going to leave me anyway. So stop bothering and let me be." You had never heard her getting so loud and harsh. For a second you didn't even know what to say. But as you felt the tears prick in your eyes you mumbled out an apology and turned around on the heel. So no picnic.

---------------

You didn't even know where to go. The tears were now streaming down your face like a waterfall. Your first thought was Pod. So you went to find him.

"(Y/n), what has happened?" Podrick pulled you into a hug and sat you down next to him. You cried his whole shirt wet. But he didn't care.

"I- I thought I was breaking through with Brienne. It seemed like she wasn't as cold anymore, but I just asked her out on a picknick, and she completely lashed out. What have I done wrong? Why does she hate me Pod?" Pod looked at you empathically.

"I'm sure she doesn't hate you. She's just been hurt a lot and doesn't trust easily. It's hard for her to express her feelings."

"No, I pushed her too much. I'm sure she hates me now." You clung to Pods shirt and cried even more. What neither of you knew was that Brienne had also wanted to talk to Pod, and she had heard your conversation. She felt bad. Really bad. She didn't hate you, and she never wanted to be so harsh. She was just scared.

"(Y/n), I-" She came around the corner and in less than a second you were on you feet. Starting to ramble an apology.

"I'm sorry, Brienne. I shouldn't have been so pushy. You clearly aren't interested, and I should have accepted that." More tears fell down your cheeks, you couldn't even stop them.

Brienne took a step forward and against all her instincts she grabbed your hands and sat down with you. Podrick slowly left you to alone, knowing that you really needed to talk. Alone.

"There is no need for you to apologise, (Y/n). I am the one who should apologise. I had no right to shout at you and get so loud. I don't hate you. I really don't, please never think that. I just... In the past I have been hurt, a lot. From my childhood on people have called me names, made fun of me, bullied me or called me 'Brienne the Beauty'. Of course that was a joke. But because of that I have always been very reserved and, quite frankly, alone. But a few years ago I fell in love. For the first time ever I trusted someone, and I was instantly hurt. He left me for someone else and died protecting the Queen. After that I swore myself to never trust anyone again. I would be hurt sooner or later." To be honest, you were shocked. It had never occurred to you that Brienne could not be liked, that she could have even been bullied and called names. To you she was just perfect. And you told her that.

"I'm so sorry, Brienne. I didn't know any of that. I can't believe people are so cruel. But I can promise you: I will never leave you. To me, you are perfect and amazing. There is nothing about you to make fun of. Each little part and thing about you makes you special. Every flaw, every imperfection, every insecurity." You warmly smiled at her and stroked over her hands. Your tears long forgotten.

"Thank you, so much." Brienne tightly hugged you and even though it still took some time for her to fully grasp it all, she started to trust you more and more. And she even learned to get used to the physical touch.

DCing the U, if you know what I mean ;-)

I was very much not a fan of 2013's Man of Steel. I hate the tone, the visual style, how it approached its themes. Just thumbs down all round, with the exception of the cast. I need to see that bit of Black Adam where Henry Cavil plays a more traditional take on the character, because I suspect he'd actually be great at it. I decided I'd see how it was received before checking out Batman v Superman, and the results seemed to be that the people who enjoyed it had already loved MoS. And then the culture war BS started. So I just left it. I didn't watch Justice League, or its re-release/re-edit/remake. I did watch Wonder Woman because I didn't want the first of this generation of superhero films starring a woman to flop, but I didn't really care for it. So that was it for me and the DCEU, until this last fortnight. With the announcement that the universe is starting again over the next two years and that we'll be getting a new Superman film I decided to give them another chance. That is, I want to let the new DC Universe film series sell me on its own merits without the baggage of the old DCEU.

Officially the series will begin in 2024 with the release of Creature Commandos as the beginning of Chapter One: Gods and Monsters. However the actual universe was rebooted in The Flash this year, and there are a couple of films released between then and next year. So they have, sometimes inconsistently, stated the following installments take place within the fictional universe of the DCU, but are not part of official first chapter:

Aquaman

The Suicide Squad

Peacemaker season 1

Blue Beetle

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom

And because of my dumb, all-inclusive brain I have decided to personally include Aquaman: Undertow, Arthur's Guide to Atlantis, and the upcoming Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom Special.

I have now seen all the currently released films (haven't finished Peacemaker yet) and here are my thoughts on all of them:

Aquaman (21/12/2018) Surprisingly fun. A bit irreverent but doesn't dive into full irony ("Really? Orange top with green pants!? And a seashell buckle!?! How ridiculous!") which I do appreciate. I enjoy that it's a grail quest, not a stop-the-device-that-shoots-a-glowy-light-into-the-sky. Arthur is a fun hero, I appreciate his character journey, simple as it was. The chemistry between him and Mera may have been simple but it still worked well. Lots of cool underwater stuff! Sunken ships, battle sharks, crab soldiers, lost world dinos, glowy coral, giant ancient sunken statues, etc. All fun stuff! The CG can be kinda iffy, especially on people but I'm okay with it. Black Manta was cool but Ocean Master was nothing special. This was a fun starting place.

The Suicide Squad (30/07/2021) After trying Suicide Squad from 2016 I was so pleasantly surprised at how much this improved on it. The strong themes and defined characters and creative action and cinematography. Just :chef's kiss: I wish that King Shark got something to do in the final battle that was unexpected to highlight how Waller's putting them in such defined roles that don't actually fit them as characters.

Blue Beetle (15/08/2023) I think this was the weakest so far. The class and racial themes work very well, until Jenny becomes the good billionaire. The scenes where Jaime is talking with his dad and later uncle were the best parts of the film! The first one actually made me teary, that doesn't happen at movies! The villains were nothing, until Carapax's backstory was revealed, and then suddenly they're veeerrry strongly tied into the existing themes! I don't know why they rewrote Jaime's world so much. Why is he a college graduate instead of a teenager? Why don't they live in El Paso? Why does Ted Kord have a daughter? Is it just because a heterosexual love interest is a requirement? The "komedy" is pretty forced. The suit now burns his clothes away, so we can have a nudity running joke, until they just stop acknowledging it later on. The clothes still burn but we don't need to see him change back. The scarab goes inside Jaime and emerges at the base of his neck instead of just latching onto that part so we can keep saying it went up his ass. All of Kord's Blue Beetle equipment looks like it came out of the old comics, cue all the characters complaining how goofy everything looks! And a lot of stuff doesn't work fully! People love when we say our universe is dumb! And then it starts having 80s stuff out of nowhere, the Bug starts blasting Motley Crew, the shield is built out of a Power Glove (wasn't Ted a billionaire? Why is he repurposing a Nintendo peripheral?) the minigun is made of light-up cubes. It just feels like it's only there because "Hey, remember the 1980s!?" has been the flavor of the last eternity.

So now I'm just waiting on Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. In the meantime I think I'll try Birds of Prey and then maybe the Shazam!s.

[nymerias-heart]

I really do like what u wrote but I think like the biggest difference in how we see this au is that I wouldn’t change anything prior to Ned’s capture by the Lannisters. So, what the character knew/did before Roberts death shouldn’t change (in my opinion) cause then it kind of starts to feel a little like cheating, if that makes sense??.

So I wouldn’t include the conversation between Arya and Sansa, were sansa finds out about the secret passageways. Cause that’s not something she would know/could rely on when the guards come looking for the stark girls.

A lot of what u wrote for Sansa here, feels to me MORE like trying to get Sansa to the same points in the story that Arya went through and LESS if u switched the roles how would Sansa’s choices change the journey that Arya had to take, which is how I prefer to look at the au.

So, firstly, ur kind of ignoring just how blinded Sansa was in her love of Joffrey and Cersei and her belief in their goodness. As Cersei herself says here:

"The girl was wet with love. She would have done anything for Joffrey, until he cut off her father's head and called it mercy. That put an end to that."

Or from Sansa herself:

Their dreams were full of songs and stories, the way hers had been before Joffrey cut her father's head off. Sansa pitied them. Sansa envied them.

It took Joffrey ordering Eddards death to wake Sansa up, when Jaime killed Jory Cassell and the other stark men, Sansa separates his actions from those of House Lannister and Joffrey:

Sansa was certain her prince had no part in murdering Jory and those other poor men; that had been his wicked uncle, the Kingslayer. She knew her father was still angry about that, but it wasn't fair to blame Joff. That would be like blaming her for something that Arya had done.

So Sansa seeing the death of septa Mordane wouldn’t really change her opinion about the Lannisters in my opinion, instead I would see her going to Cersei or Joffrey to inform them of what the Lannister guards did, EDIT: I don’t believe any fear of the guards would stop her from going to Cersei and instead choosing to live in the streets hungry and alone, believing she could get justice for them this way and believing that Cersei and Joffrey were good and kind and different than the others.

I also again just really don’t like the inclusion of new scenes and events that didn’t happen in the original in the form of the Sansa and Ned talks. Instead I would have septa mordane survive or at least live longer and try to get Sansa to other septa’s and this be the way how she gets Sansa out of the keep, working as a sort of protecter of Sansa, taking the role that Yoren played with Arya.

Also I don’t believe yoren would ever have recognised Sansa ( he thought brown haired Arya was Ned’s son even though he already met Jon, meaning he didn’t know that the rest of the stark kids were blue eyed red heads) nor should Sansa be able to recognise him (they never met prior to Roberts death/ Ned’s failed plot to make stannis king) and she doesn’t have any reason to trust him (Arya initially fought yoren when he dragged her away and believed he was trying to kill her when he started to cut her hair off, why would Sansa who never even met him trust him?).

As someone else said in the comments, Sansa disguising as a septa is really the only disguise that I believe would work for Sansa with the knowledge she has (knowing the prayers and the songs of the faith of the seven). EDIT: so I would keep the septa disguise for Sansa and not have her go with the nightswatch. She could pass for a septa but I don’t believe Sansa could pull off disguising herself as a boy, even if yoren did cut off her hair and find her a boys outfit(he didn’t have to get Arya boys clothes cause what she was wearing already worked), even if she could pass off looking like a boy, could she act like one?

Arya always loved the small folk and treated them as she would any other person. She tried to deal with her grief from hers fathers death by taking it out on hot pie and beating him with a sword, she climbed trees and picked fruit and caught and killed rabbits, she grew up playing in the dirt and being messy, she was closer to her brothers than Sansa and could actually pass as a boy because of this.

Sansa on the other hand was raised to be a lady, perfect manners and speech, perfectly dressed in a gown and appropriate hairstyle. She never played in the mud or interacted with any small folk. So I agree with u that she could never have made friends with gendry, hot pie and Lommy the way Arya did. But even worse than that I don’t believe the other men travelling with yoren wouldn’t eventually figure out that she was a girl, especially if she was alone and didn’t make friends with the other boys. I don’t believe a hair cut is enough to convince anyone that Sansa ISN’T a highborn, noble girl. (Imagining a scene of sitting by the river trying to wash off the dirt and singing to herself and some man witnessing this: Arya who was believed to be a boy was threatened with rape, what would happen if they found out sansa was a girl? EDIT: dressing her as a boy puts her in more danger, Yoren probably beloved he could pull off the boy disguise with Arya because he himself initially assumed Arya was a boy when she was dressed liek one and was dirty.

We also see Sansa rewriting her memories to deal with trauma, if the gold cloaks came I could see Sansa revealing herself to them and begging them to take her back to Good Queen Cersei and her beloved betrothed Joffrey. If Sansa never made any friends on the road with the other boys, she would mostly be left with her own thoughts every single day and I could see her starting to doubt herself and convince herself that she must have been mistaken about Joffrey and the more she would see the horrors of the war, the more alone and unsafe she would feel and the more she would want to return to her closest family members: Arya and jeyne poole in kingslanding.

As for the rest: I don’t see Sansa ever getting to that part of Aryas journey in the way she did in ur version so I’m not really sure how she would act/behave or what choices she would make. Would Sansa be part of a travelling group of silent sisters/septa’s that someone who’s a part of e.g. septa mordane or another woman (it has to be a woman in order for Sansa to trust them, EDIT: men played a role as teachers and friends and protectors in Aryas story, where in sansas it was catelyn septa mordane, jeyne poole and Cersei (she does have sandor and Tyrion a but she never really trusts them and littlefinger comes later on) for Arya it was her brothers, father and syrio, mycah and gendry and yoren and then later lady Smallwood and other women start to come in a little bit. So I would like for Sansa to travel with a group of women, while Arya befriends male courtiers, to kind of keep this Trend going.

If Sansa was already with women she would trust why would she ever reveal herself to the brotherhood without banners? Also if she was recognised by harwin like Arya was, I don’t see a group of adults (Arya was travelling with other boys) allow the brotherhood to just take Sansa away from them? Especially if they believed they were on a religious mission (Sansa chose to abandon her nobility and dedicate her life to the seven).

Sorry if this is king of long and messy, hopefully it makes sense 😫. EDIT: I realised I missed some parts from the original post so I had to insert a few more parts.

Arya and Sansa storyswap: an exercise in imagination

Premise: I tried to speculate what might happen if Sansa manages to escape King's Landing and Arya gets stuck in the capital. I collected my thoughts on this scenario trying to make logical, credible choices that respected the characterization of the characters and the timeline of the books (the wiki was very usefull for this). I discarded all the scenarios that end in "…and then she dies horribly" because they're boring. I write with assumption that they would still remain POV characters and therefore mantain a minimum of plot armor. Like everyone, I have my biases so it's not perfect, but I tried to put myself in the most neutral mindset possible. Enjoy and let me know your thoughts. Part 2, Part 3

Part 1/3: Sansa

A Game of Thrones 

I believe Sansa's story would remain mostly the same until the end of Sansa III (AGOT). The only thing I feel like adding is an exchange with Arya. During breakfast Sansa notices Arya's bruises and her sister tells her about the secret passage with dragon skulls that she found, and how she got out of the Red Keep. Sansa clearly doesn't believe her and she thinks it's just Arya being weird.

At the end of Sansa III they receive the news that they will be leaving King's Landing soon, and she runs away crying and barricades herself in her room. In Sansa IV she is locked in Maegor's Holdfast and we find out that she went to Cersei to tell her about Ned's plan to leave. There's a narrative hole between these two chapters that can be exploited to make little changes. What happened that night after Sansa locked herself in her room? It has to be something that makes her change her mind about going to the queen or at least something that stops her from doing so. Personally I choose septa Mordane, you could expand her character and make her a little more similar to how she is in the show where she is shown genuinely loyal to House Stark.

The septa is present when Sansa escapes to her room so it's not unrealistic that she would decide to follow her. Sansa has been behaving "almost as wicked as Arya" lately so Mordane decides to follow her to lecture her or console her. Maybe she reaches her before she can barricade the door and make her see reason. Or perhaps seeing the girl so out of it she goes to Lord Eddard to talk, and she persuades him to talk again to his daughter and help her to calm down. Here you could write a scene parallel to the one in which Ned talks to Arya about Needle.

Sansa is not happy with her father's plans, and she begs him to go to the queen, to discuss this further and find another solution, to make her stay. To reassure her, Ned tells her that he already intends to go to Cersei (as he will do in Eddard XII), but he does not reveal the real reason why he wants to talk to her.

However he fears that the girl might take the initiative and do it herself. To be safe he assigns her a guard and ask him and the septa to prevent his daughter from interacting with Cersei before the departure. (I would like the guard to be Alyn but at this point he has already left for the Riverlands).

Cersei has less informations and when the moment of Ned's arrest arrives, Sansa is with her protectors that have already been warned to keep the Lannisters away from her. When the Lannister men arrive for her, the Stark guard slows them down and septa Mordane drags her away. First the two try to look for Ned, but they soon realize that the Tower of the Hand is under attack. The septa drags Sansa into the servants' quarters (into the kitchens? in the pantry?) idk.

The Septa shoves her in a dark niche, under a cupboard, throws a tablecloth over her and tells her to stay hidden. Mordane tries to think of a plan, but the Lannister men burst in. They recognize her as one of the Stark servants but when she does not provide useful information on the Stark girls they kill her. Sansa remains there all night, lying in the dust. She tries not to make any noise, she is terrified, and from her hiding place she can see the septa's corpse lying on the ground.

The first light of dawn comes in through a little window. Sansa tries to gather courage, she has to leave before the servants start working. The idea disgusts her, but she sees only one way to go unnoticed: she undresses Mordane, covers the silk dress with the septa's habit and hides the face with her veil. Then she wraps the woman in the tablecloth, as if it were a shroud and hides her in that same niche. She tries not to attract attention and find a way out. Sansa doesn't fully understand what happened, she would like to go to the queen or her father, but she is too afraid of the Lannister men after seeing them kill Mordane.

She hasn't eaten in a whole day so before leaving the kitchens she steals some food, like she did with Jeyne. The thought saddens her, who knows where her friend is? She hasn't seen her since she had breakfast with her and Arya. 'Arya...' Sansa remembers the secret passage her sister told her about and decides to try to reach it. With a little luck she makes it, no one pays attention to an anonymous septa. Thanks to the tunnel she manages to reach Flea Bottom.

Here she lives for a few days, trying to listen conversations to find out something about her father. Obv Sansa doesn't try to kill pigeons, she has to stoop to pilfering some food, and even eat trash. She mostly frequents the surroundings of the The Great Sept of Baelor and prays. She sings religious hymns and people take her for a begging septa and throw her some crumbs. One day the sept square fills with people, they are here for the execution of the traitor Eddard Stark. Sansa tries to climb up to not be crushed by the crowd. She sees her beloved Joffrey give the order! She screams, but her voice is drowned out by the noise.

The show is over, the people disperse again. She looks around desperately searching for something, she hopes for a friendly face. it is then that she recognizes a man dressed in black: it's Yoren. Sansa had seen him a few days earlier in the throne room, while he was asking father for men to recruit in the Night's Watch (in Sansa III). He's going away, but Sansa follows him. Now it's clear to her that King's Landing is no longer a safe place and this may be her only chance to return in the North, to home, to safety.

Yoren realizes he's being followed and try to scare her away. Sansa lifts her veil to show herself, she reveals her identity, She begs him to take her out of the city with him, she try to appeal to the ancient friendship between the Starks and the Night's Watch. Yoren looks at her face and recognizes a certain resemblance to Catelyn Stark. He chooses to believe her, so he cuts her hair, dresses her up as a boy and throws her in with the other recruits.

A Clash of Kings

I find it very funny that Sansa's boy name could be Sandor. Anyway, she tries to act nice and compliant to not put herself at risk, but mostly gets people to walk all over her. The younger recruits bully her because she “looks like a female (derogatory)” and she's an easy target. On the other hand, she doesn't have a sword to steal so Hot Pie and Lommy don't try to rob her, they just think she's a loser. Sansa keeps to herself, she doesn't go near Jaqen's cage, she doesn't catch a rabbit to share with Gendry, she doesn't manage to establish a particular relationship with anyone in the group. The commonfolk sucks, Yoren is kind I guess but he stinks. It will take a long time before she can start thinking about social injustice, for now she's just shocked by their miserable living conditions.

The Golden cloaks come looking for Gendry, but Sansa stays hidden because she thinks they are looking for her. Why would the queen want that rude guy? For a moment she thinks that he vaguely resemble Lord Renly… but no, that's nonsense. And even if it was, he's still a bastard. Yoren tells them that if the golden cloaks return they must escape.

One night the group go to sleep, but soon they are attacked by Amory Lorch. Sansa doesn't want to fight, she tries to hide, but in the chaos she ends up showing a soldier down from the tower, killing a man for the first time. She does everything she can to reach the trapdoor and escape. There's no way she'll go back to free Jaqen, but she decides to grab Weasel in the escape.

The small group of survivors, led by Gendry, arrive near an abandoned village. The Bull decides to explore it and takes Hot Pie with him. Sansa doesn't know it, but Gendry wants to abandon her and the others because he thinks they are just slowing them down. He has decided to propose the escape to Hot Pie because he is the second "less useless" choice after Arya. As per canon, Gendry and Hot Pie are captured by the Mountain's men (and probably die in Harrenhal).

Now here is an important change. Arya was captured and taken to Harrenhal because she returned to the village and try to save Gendry, but I don't think Sansa would do the same so she would not be captured at this point in the story. When Sansa and Weasel hear the sound of men in armor approaching, they run away to hide and leaves Lommy there to his fate.

The two girls now find themselves in the forest alone and without supplies in a land of burned villages, they're severely malnourished. Sansa would definitely think about trying to reach Riverrun, but she has no way of orienting herself. If we want to give her any hope of survival I'd say the only solution is for the two of them to be lucky enough to walk in the right direction. In this way the two get closer to the territory frequented by the Brotherhood without Banners and with a bit of luck the outlaws finds them before they die of starvation.

A Storm of Swords

The Brotherhood takes the orphans with them and feeds them. Weasel is probably left at the first inn/orphanage (where she will live a long and happy life), while Sansa meets Harwin, she is recognized and taken hostage. She learns that Winterfell has been conquered by Theon and that Bran and Rickon are dead.

She stark using women's clothes again because she prefers them. And also because every day she manages to hide the fact that she is a girl less and less. She has no intention of cutting her hair a second time, and now that she started eating regularly again she got her first period too. Coarse as they are, it is a relief to be surrounded by people who recognize her as a noble lady. Lady Ravella is a breath of fresh air and Tom is an acceptable singer. She enjoys Edric Dayne's company and thinks he's cute, but she doesn't understand why he wants to talk about Jon Snow.

Sansa is taken to Lord Beric who promises to reunite her with her mother. The sight of the undead man repulses her, but his behavior is chivalrous enough. She certainly doesn't try to escape, she just hopes that he respects his oath.

One day a prisoner with a familiar and unmistakable face is brought to the Hollow Hill: it's the Hound.

The first encounter between you and Carlos happened one summer, you were licking ice cream in the hot weather when you heard a muffled sound of instruments playing next door. Curious, you went to check what was the noise about. You see a bunch of guys in the garage performing their instruments, they looked like they were in a band. You watched when one of the guitarists groaned and signaled for the rest to stop playing. He goes to face his bandmates. He had curly brown hair and a maroon shirt with black jeans, he was sweating all over and the stern look on his face almost made you drop your ice cream.

"One more time! We need to get this right! Camilo stop slacking on the guitar!"

"I'm not!"

"I barely heard your chords!"

"I was playing!"

You see the guy arguing with another who looked exactly like him except he was wearing a much brighter attire and had a smaller stature. Before the two could break into a fight, another guy clicks his tongue and separates the two.

"Ay, cálmense chicos. Let's get this practice over with!"

The male encourages. Eventually, all of them returned to their places and began performing their instruments again. You watched in awe as the band played mesmerizing music, what astonished you the most was their lead guitarist who was also their vocalist. He barely sang in one of their songs but his voice made an impression on you, it was low, almost rough, but it was melodious. It made your knees weak. After minutes of watching them perform in the garage, they successfully finished their performance. You couldn't help but reveal yourself from the shadows and offer them applause.

"Wow, that was amazing!"

You complimented them. All of them shared a look of shock and bewilderment, for a long time they've played in the same garage it was only now did they've gained someone's interest. They were proud, to say the least. The lead guitarist scoffs at you, denying the fact that he is flattered that you liked their performance.

"I'm glad you liked it! I'm Camilo by the way, the rhythm guitarist"

The guitarist, Camilo, enthusiastically walks over to you and offered a friendly handshake. He gently takes you to the rest of the band members.

"This is Jaime, our bassist"

"¡Hola!"

Jaime gives you a warm smile and waves as you reciprocate, Camilo gestures to a tall guy behind the drum set.

"Now that's Matéo, our fantastic drummer"

"'Sup"

Matéo gives you a chill expression. Lastly, Camilo points at their vocalist, the singer was avoiding your gaze, almost like ignoring your existence.

"And finally, our lead guitarist who's also the vocalist, and is, unfortunately, my twin brother, Carlos"

You breathlessly look at Carlos, everything about him screamed bewitching. He was the coolest guy you've ever seen, it was hard to set your eyes away from him. Carlos simply scoffs and offers you his rolling eyes. You ignore his attempt to push you away.

"So, are you guys like a band?"

"It's none of your business"

Carlos rebutted at you and placed his instrument away, Camilo and Jaime cleared their throats at him, he only glared at them. Luckily, you weren't offended by what he said so you smiled.

"Okay. Have you guys played in shows before?"

"Can you go away? You annoy the hell out of me"

You pouted and crossed your arms at the guitarist, you didn't understand why he was acting so brash towards you. Nevertheless, you giggled at him.

"Fine, but do expect me to come again next time you guys play. I like seeing you perform, Carlos"

The way his name rolled off your tongue, made his spine tingle delightfully. He knew you meant nothing to what you said but it made his heartbeat go faster than anticipated. Carlos faces away, he bites his lip and prayed that the blush on his face would go away. Soon, you take your leave. The bandmates shared a look and landed their eyes on Carlos, who decided to retreat before being bombarded with questions.

You weren't lying when you said you'll come again to watch them play again. There's part in Carlos that wished you stopped looking his way. You come to see them play in the garage next door for the past few days up until a month. It was safe to say you were their number one fan. As time progressed, your smiles get stuck in his head every night. Carlos found himself secretly glad you went to see them play that day.

The bandmates, especially Camilo, would try to set you both up. Eventually, it worked. Carlos learns a few things about you and with time, he opens up to you. He'll tell you about his band and the several shows and contests they went through. You can see he was passionate about being a singer and playing the guitar, it was admirable. The two of you grew closer and closer until you and he was inseparable. Carlos would invite you to hang out with him and you'll let him come over to your house and he'll sometimes teach you how to play the guitar.

It's all fun and games until Carlos slips and falls in love with you. How could he not? You liked hanging out with him and seeing him play with his band. You were kindhearted and understanding of his passions and it's making it harder for him to not let these feelings grow stronger. The day Carlos realized his feelings for you, Camilo joked that he should offer you a sappy serenade. And little did his twin know that he took it seriously.

It was late in the afternoon when you hear loud knocks on your front door, you answer to see it was Carlos. You smile and asked him what was up, he hastily shows you a small poster.

"We're playing tonight at seven, I want you to be there"

"Me?"

You gasped, Carlos nodded and handed the poster. You look and see the name of their band plastered in bold letters, it wasn't their first gig but rather the first gig you're invited to. Dios, you were excited! So, you squealed and unconsciously gave Carlos a hug.

"Of course, I'll be there! I can't wait to see you guys play in front of a big audience!"

You gushed. There goes Carlos' heart skipping beats again at the sight of you, he was just as happy that you agreed to go to one of their gigs, it would mean the world to him because he's been planning something for you.

Later that evening, you got dressed as you arrived at the venue where Carlos' band would be performing. There was a fairly large crowd but you managed to make your way near the stage. You can see the instruments already set up. As soon as the lights went low, the crowd began cheering as you see the band walking up on the stage. You clapped and let out a loud shout.

The band began performing and you were having the time of your life. They were absolutely killing it! You screamed and sang along to their songs. During the show, Carlos constantly kept his gaze on you. It was bizarre that despite the large crowd he can still spot you. The adrenaline was constantly pumping through him as he finished one song to another. Until it was time to wrap up the show with a final song. Carlos, sweaty and fingers hurting, manages to smirk at the crowd.

"Alright, before we end the night, we would like to play one last song"

The crowd cheers. Carlos signals his bandmates to get ready. He couldn't believe he was about to do this. He's about to confess his love for you in front of many people with a song. Call him cliché but he can't stand bottling all these emotions anymore.

"This one's for a special girl out there named [Name]"

He quickly says and this makes catches your attention. You tilt your head at the mention of your name. But before you can process it, the band resumes playing as Carlos brings his lips close to the mic.

"I'm a puppet on a string. Tracy Island, time-travelin' diamond cutter-shaped heartaches"

"Come to find you four in some velvet mornin' years too late"

"She's a silver linin', lone ranger ridin' through an open space"

"In my mind, when she's not right there beside me"

Carlos begins and his singing brings an electrifying sensation all over your body. You watched in awe as he plays his guitar with emotion.

"I go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be"

"And satisfaction feels like a distant memory"

"And I can't help myself"

"All I wanna ever say is, "Are you mine?"

Midst the crowd, you finally meet Carlos' eyes, and immediately his gaze steals the air inside your lungs.

"Well, are you mine?"

"Are you mine?"

"Are you mine? Oh, ah"

The entire time he sang those words, Carlos constantly keeps his gaze on you, nearly convincing you that he was asking you those questions. The moment felt so surreal.

"I guess what I'm tryin' to say is I need the deep end"

"Keep imaginin' meetin', wished away entire lifetimes"

"Unfair we're not somewhere misbehavin' for days"

"Great escape, lost track of time and space"

"She's a silver linin', climbin' on my desire"

Carlos decided to wink at you at the last line and this brings a furious flush to your face. You're filled with various emotions that were only present now, what was going on and why is your heart beating so quickly?

"And I go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be"

"And satisfaction feels like a distant memory"

"And I can't help myself"

"All I wanna ever say is, "Are you mine?"

The guitarist can feel his heart prepared to leap out of his chest as he continued to watch your dazed expression. Carlos can see your eyes glittering amongst the crowd as it pulls him deeper and he struggles to not let his knees give up on him.

"Well, are you mine?"

"Are you mine?"

"Are you mine?"

He sings the chorus, his eyes set on you. This was no coincidence or accident, you believed that he was asking you those questions. Your toes curled inside of your shoes, your heart was hammering against your ribcage, and you can feel your body go fuzzy. 

"And the thrill of the chase moves in mysterious ways"

"So in case I'm mistaken, I"

"Just wanna hear you say, "You got me, baby"

"Are you mine?"

Carlos sucks in a breath at the bridge and performs a guitar solo followed by his twin brother. Camilo has been aware of everything, so he sends him a teasing but encouraging smile. Jaime and Matéo have been consistent in keeping up with Carlos' pace in the song, the two were definitely aware of his plan by now. After the guitar solo, the music halts as Carlos quickly brings his mouth close to the microphone, searching for your eyes again.

"She's a silver linin', lone ranger ridin' through an open space"

"In my mind, when she's not right there beside me"

All of a sudden, the music kicks in and the crowd goes wild. It finally clicks in you, why these emotions are bombarding you. They were always there whenever you're with Carlos, you're just too good at denying it. Only now, with a confession through a song, did you realize that Carlos shared the same emotions you felt for him. This causes your brain to go haywire.

"I go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be"

"And satisfaction feels like a distant memory"

"And I can't help myself"

"All I wanna ever say is, "Are you mine?"

Carlos sings each line with raw emotion. He didn't care if the crowd can notice his blatant staring at you or that he was professing his love for you through a song. With every strum of his guitar, Carlos hoped that you felt the same.

"Well, are you mine?"

"Are you mine?"

"Are you mine?"

As the band finishes the song and the entire crowd began cheering, you have made up your mind. Carlos pants and says his thanks to the audience for coming to their gig. He hastily exits the stage and puts away his guitar with adrenaline still fresh in his veins, he begins to pace backstage, processing the whole performance he dedicated to you. Unbeknownst to Carlos, when people started leaving, you were marching your way backstage.

A knock on the door interrupts Carlos from his screaming thoughts, he wipes the sweat off his forehead and fixed his hair. The second he goes to answer the door, you promptly threw yourself into him as you grabbed the sides of his face and then pressed your lips hard against his.

Carlos merely chokes on air but the shock subsides, his hands made their way around your waist as he begins to kiss you back. You pushed your body closer to him until there was no space between you and him, your hands remain on the sides of his face as you kissed him harder, telling him that you do feel the same. Carlos moans through the kiss, getting the message with eyes fluttered shut, imprinting every second of this moment inside his brain.

Things would've escalated in a very heated direction if it weren't for the collective sounds of whistles. The two of you swiftly pulled away and looked at the rest of Carlos' bandmembers laughing, Camilo was grinning from ear to ear and telling a satire dirty joke. You and Carlos' faces turned red.

"¡Vete a la mierda cabrones!"

The guitarist cussed and threw a middle finger at his bandmates before shutting the door loudly at their faces. He gently faces you with an awkward expression, you smiled and gave him a loving embrace.

"Do you really have to confess through a song in front of many people?"

"What? Don't act like you didn't like every bit of it"

"I did, I loved it very much. I believe you asked me a question, amor"

Your voice makes Carlos shudder as you playfully traced your finger on his jawline. It took all that he had to not attack you with a kiss. He chuckles.

"Well, are you mine [Name]?"

"Oh, I'm all yours, Carlos"

[hilarychuff]

so would it be repetitive if i ask you to do asoiaf too haha? do twilight tho 👀

ok i'll do both just for you 😉

asoiaf

otp: ya also jonsa to absolutely no one's surprise

favourite canon pairing: hmmmm tbh i don't really read much outside of my lil sphere. i love nedcat but wouldn't really engage in nedcat fanfic. i love sam/gilly but wouldn't really read for them. honestly maybe cersei/jaime bc i have read stuff with them in it and they're so fascinating to me but not in an i'm-rooting-for-them kind of way. i'm sort of similarly invested in dany/daario too. OH. robb/jeyne is very sweet to me.

worst pairing ever: sansa/tyrion. like honestly considering that sansa is my blorbo i can sort of ship her with anyone and to a degree i absolutely do but a lot of those needs to exist within certain parameters (like an au that sort of resets/reevaluates power dyanimcs) but i haven't really found a fic that has been able to compensate for that with these two in a way that feels meaningful to me. then again i also haven't gone looking!!! but ya probs them.

guilty pleasure pairing: you know i also love me some dany/sansa under the right circumstances, especially when it is toxic and complicated and messy, and even better when jon is also in the mix. dany/jon doesn't really do it for me at all but when you make it a love triangle with SANSA in the middle i am like ok tell me more!!!!! i'm listening!!!!!!!

a pairing you want to see more: honestly i know marg is also a teenage girl but i have always kind of felt that tyrion/margaery would be a way better pairing than tyrion/sansa, especially show/fanon margaery considering why don't ACTUALLY know that much about canon marg's personality. tyrion still gets to date a hot girly who is smart and clever which is what everyone who likes him wants for him but now she is actually ambitious (as opposed to just wanting to have autonomy) and could appreciate his cunning/schemes/what he could bring to the table for her. also she clearly has fewer problems getting with a lannister!!!

that pairing everyone likes but you’re like “lol no”:  hmmm idk about everyone likes but i have seen enough people do ned/cersei and i just don't think it's for me. like i see what ned could bring to the table for cersei in terms of a worthy husband and i haven't engaged much with this ship so maybe i'm just missing it but to me it seems like the vibes would be like???? ned making cersei good through the power of his love??? and maybe we should just let a woman be evil 😤

favorite non-romantic pair: sansa and arya i think probably!!!!!! the stark sisters are something that is so important to me and i love getting to write scenes for them

twilight

otp: hmmm i think i gotta go with edward/bella for this one. honestly i think i was kind of sold on jacob in new moon until he kissed bella and she punched him in the face and then everyone was like "ha ha yay jacob shot his shot" and i was like EXCUSE ME???? that said back in like middle school i'm p sure i did think all the bella/edward soulmate pining stuff (the SILENCE when he LEAVES) was desperately romantic

favourite canon pairing: that said..... rosalie/emmett supremacy. rosalie is a queen. she deserves everything!!!!!

worst pairing ever: cannot express enough how completely uninvested i am in alice/jasper. he is both a) uninteresting to me and b) a confederate soldier who seemingly has never really reckoned with that!!! alice/bella much more interesting frankly. alice/ANGELA much more interesting frankly!!!!! wait i forgot about jacob/renesmee. it's jacob/renesmee.

guilty pleasure pairing: hmmmm. maybe rosalie/bella. can you imagine???????????? i can. :) bella stop talking about how hot rosalie is all of the time maybe!!!! that said i kind of also love rosalie as a bella hater lmfao so that makes it complicated for sure. but imagine bella in bella-edward levels of despair over her love for rosalie and rosalie kind of like.... i hate u but u ARE delicious. i also hate that i think that. and yet.... delicious. idk there's something here.

a pairing you want to see more: SOMEONE WHO IS WORTHY OF LEAH!!!!!! she deserves to have a girlfriend. maybe angela. maybe one of jacob's older sisters. no men allowed, thanks. she's a lesbian TO ME!!!!

that pairing everyone likes but you’re like “lol no”: it's not that i don't like carlisle/esme it's just that i am also BORED by them. maybe if they got more in canon i would care more. also i wouldn't really say this is a ship that everyone "likes" but while i can get behind an ot3 for edward/bella/jacob i am really not interestined in edward/jacob on their own 

favorite non-romantic pair: seth and jacob!!! seth and bella!! seth and leah!!!! seth is baby. he too deserves the world. maybe a boyfriend. both clearwaters are gay, no further questions, your honor.

Chapter 2 | Masterlist

Chapter 3:

"So, you remember the plan?"

"Yeah, we got it," said Cassie into her earpiece, having to raise her voice to be heard over the pouring rain outside. "Don't worry about us, we're fine."

"Good to know," Tim responded into the comlink.

It was the night of the auction. Zuko was wearing a black suit while Cassie was wearing a red dress. Both had their masks on. Kon, also known as Superboy, was sitting in the driver's seat. He was acting as their chauffeur, and was there as backup in case anything went wrong. Zuko rolled his eyes as he heard a slurping sound in his com link, presumably from Tim taking a sip of coffee.

 "That was gross," Kon sighed. "Don't do that." 

Tim ignored him. "Proud of you both. Remember, if the wrong person gets their hands on the magyntite, not even Superman will be able to stop them." He paused. "No pressure, though.”

"Wow, you're great at pep talks." Zuko adjusted the mask on his face, making sure it hid his scar. "You ready, Cassie?"

"I was born ready," Cassie responded with a grin. "Now, let's go, Henry."

"After you, Larissa." Zuko grabbed an umbrella and stepped out of the  self-driving black limousine they'd borrowed from Bruce. He went around to her side of the vehicle and opened her door for her. Cassie looped her arm through his, muttering a thank you as Zuko raised the umbrella above both of them. They walked into the casino.

 Just inside, a bouncer stepped in front of them. "How tall is the eagle's wingspan?"

"That means do magic," Tim said through the coms.

 "Uh," Zuko's mind raced as he tried to think of a spell on the spot. "Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" he finally said, and a ball of fire appeared over his closed fist. The bouncer nodded, and unhooked the red rope, allowing them to step inside.It was bright and loud and flashy, and Zuko had to stop for a moment to get his bearings.

 "You good?" Cassie whispered, placing a hand on his chest to steady him. "It's okay. Let's just go downstairs, follow me." She gently led him towards the back of this casino. Tim had told them that there was a staircase behind the bathrooms, and the basement was where the auction was taking place.They walked past the doors that said 'men' and 'woman' and opened the third door, revealing stairs going down to a concrete basement. "You okay now?" Cassie asked as they began to descend. 

 "Yeah," Zuko grunted. "I'm fine." They walked down a dark and damp hallway, a stark contrast to the bright lights and clean floors of the upper floor. The reached a huge room with a wrap around balcony overlooking the bottom floor. Many people, all wearing masks, were crowded together. 

"It's about to start, Mr. Henry," Cassie said. "Let's go sign in." The pair walked through the people until they reached the stairs leading to the bottom floor. Arms still linked, they walked down the stairs. 

"There's a ton of people here," Zuko mused. "I wonder what they all want to buy." 

Cassie shrugged. "Drugs. Artifacts. Who knows." 

They made their way to the middle of the throng of people and sat down in two of the chairs. The auction started soon after, and the words the auctioneer was saying sounded like white noise to Zuko. Finally, twenty minutes in, Tim's voice in his ear made Zuko flinch. "Magyntite is next," he said. "Be ready."

Sure enough, the man held up a silver briefcase. "Magyntite!" he yelled. "This drug is like Kobra Venom! Bulk up your muscles, lady and gentlemen. Do I hear... two million?" Zuko raised his hand and the same time another man did. The man glared at Zuko, who did the same.Back and forth this happened, Zuko and this man trying to get the magyntite. In the end, though, Zuko and Cassie got it for $45,000,000.

 "Holy crap," Cassie breathed as they walked back up the stairs. "That man wanted to kill you." 

Zuko hummed. "He isn't the only one." 

Cassie gave him an amused look."Is that so, Sir Henry?"

"Indeed it is, Lady Larissa."

Golden eyes gazed into blue for a second, both having small smiles on their faces.

  "Yo, you guys get it?"

"Uh, yeah," Cassie replied, breaking eye contact. "Yeah, we're heading back now." 

Zuko's face reddened. He hadn't felt any feeling similar to that since Mai, when he was thirteen. He shook his head to clear it. Don't be stupid, he told himself. Don't even go there. No chance of that happening.

"You good?" Cassie asked, raising an eyebrow under her mask. Zuko cleared his throat and nodded a little too quickly.

"Me? I'm great. Splendid. Never been better!" he babbled. "Oh Agni, I bet Kon is going crazy! Uh, let's go see him!" He linked his arm with Cassie's and half-led half-drug her through the club and out the door.

"And the lovely couple returns!" Kon cheered as Zuko opened the door for Cassie. "I missed you! Tim told me I couldn't listen to my podcast because I had to stay alert so I've been bored out of my mind."

"Oh, poor baby!" Cassie mocked. "Do you need a massage and a nice cup of tea?"

"I do, actually."

"Too bad, Superbrat."

 Zuko looked out the window. He missed his uncle's tea.

 Only 11 more months.

The next morning, Zuko, Duke and Damian were at the table eating breakfast. Zuko was about to put a piece of bacon in his mouth when he felt eyes on him. Looking up, he frowned as he met Duke's eyes. "What?

Duke's eyebrows were furrowed in disbelief. "Dude, it's 7:00 in the morning. Why are you already dressed?" 

Zuko blinked. While the others were in their pajamas- Duke in an old t-shirt and shorts and Damian in his silk robe -Zuko was in jeans and a Ralph Lauren button-up, his hair in a topknot. He would've put shoes on, if it weren't for Alfred's no-shoes-in-the-house rule. "I'm used to getting up at dawn and getting ready. It's what I've done for three years."

Duke shook his head. "You're making me feel like a slob, Zu."

 "You will not feel that way for long," Damian spoke up. "For I hear Drake coming down the stairs." 

Sure enough, Tim walked around the corner, staggering to the table. He was in an over sized black Superman shirt and his boxers with a blanket wrapped around his shoulders. His long hair was a mess, and the circles under his eyes made it look as though he had been punched in the face.  Alfred pulled out a chair beside Zuko, a cup of coffee already in his hand. Tim stumbled towards the chair, looking as though he was about to pass out. He sat down in the chair slowly, and Alfred immediately put the cup of coffee in front of him. Tim blinked slowly, before picking up the coffee and bringing it to his lips. 

"Well," Duke chuckled. "I no longer feel like a slob." 

Damian wrinkled his nose, scoffing at Tim. "You are a disgrace, Drake. Have some self respect." Tim stared at him owl-eyed in response.

 "Just give him like ten minutes," Duke said. "Anyways! So I heard you went on a mission last ni-"

"Master Duke!" Alfred interrupted him sharply. "Might I remind you the rules of breakfast?" 

Duke seemed to shrink into himself as he answered in a small voice, "No vigilante talk at the breakfast table." Alfred nodded in approval before going back into the kitchen. Duke turned back to Zuko. "Later."

Zuko hummed in response. 

--

As soon as breakfast was over, Duke ran to Zuko excitedly. "So!? How'd it go?"

"It went fine," Zuko replied. "I mean, we went in, got the stuff and got back in the car."

"That's it? No fights?"

"No fights."

"What about Cassie? Any emotions?" 

Zuko coughed, his eyes widening. "What!? No! Don't be stupid!"

Duke laughed. "Dude, you're gonna have to get better at lying if you want to join the business."

"Which could start right now, if you want." Zuko and Duke whirled around to see Bruce holding a cup of coffee. "You've been here for a month. You can fight and you're smart. You're welcome to start training today, if you want."

Zuko's jaw dropped. "Uh, yeah! That'd be great!" 

Bruce smiled."Fantastic. Go get changed into something comfortable and we'll start."

Zuko practically sprinted to his room, but before he could change, his phone chimed.

Cassie Sandsmark: good morning doofus

.Zuko grinned in spite of himself.

Zuko Wayne: good morning!

Cassie Sandsmark: how'd you sleep?

Zuko Wayne: great but i don't know if tim slept at all he's barely alive right now

Cassie Sandsmark: sounds like tim

Cassie Sandsmark: so when u joining the hero business

Zuko Wayne: right now,, I'm about to start training

Cassie Sandsmark: YAY TELL ME HOW IT GOES

Zuko Wayne: of course

__

Training, Zuko decided, was difficult. It'd been a month since he'd started, and while he was improving, he was sore and sick of computers. 

"If I have to break another one of Tim's codes, I'll kill myself," he groaned, flopping on to the couch beside Damian, who nodded. 

"Every time Drake speaks, I want to kill myself." Zuko eyed him wearily.

"That's harsh."

"Such is reality." Damian flipped to the next page of the book he was reading. "So, your first patrol is tomorrow?" 

Zuko grinned."Yeah. I'm so excited." He sat up, cracking his knuckles. "Gonna be a blast."

"Are you finally adequate at lying?" 

Zuko winced. "It took me a while but yeah, I got it."

 "Good. We cannot have you exposing our secret." He looked up from his book. "Christmas is next month. Pennyworth instructed me to inform you that he needs a list of what you wish."

Zuko groaned. "I have no idea what I want."

"Well, figure it out," Damian replied. "Because if you do not, I'll have to listen to the complaining."

__

It was the night of his first patrol. Zuko turned to the mirror. His suit was a black kevlar lined jumpsuit with an obsidian utility belt and combat boots of the same color. There was a blue bat symbol across the chest, and a demon-type stage mask of the same color on his face. He looked at the blue gauntlet on his wrist and flexed his arm.

Dick whistled lowly. "Lookin' sharp, Zu."

Zuko grunted in response, but he couldn't stop the corners of his lips from twitching upwards.

"Good to see you suited up," Bruce said as he saw his son. He turned to the Bat Computer and typed something in. "Alright. Nightwing and Robin, you take the east side. Red Hood and Black Bat, you take the west. Red Robin, you take south. Blue Spirit and I will take north."

"You got it, boss man," said Jason with a mock salute. At that, the vigilantes headed out.

"Remember," Bruce began as he and Zuko got into the Batmobile. "Code names in the field." Zuko nodded.

"I won't forget, Batman."

"Good to hear, Blue Spirit." 

After a few minutes if driving, Oracle spoke. "Croc is robbing a store on the corner of North and Order," she said. "Blue Spirit and Batman are closest."

"We're on it," Bruce said, and sped up. 

They reached the corner in five minutes, and jumped out of the car. "Croc!" Bruce yelled.

A huge reptilian humanoid turned toward the voice, and smiled. "Batman!" he chirped. "And who's this?"

"Blue Spirit," Zuko said stiffly. 

Killer Croc chuckled."New kid to destroy? I love that." 

Croc rushed him, snapping his jaws viciously. Zuko jumped into the air, doing a flip over the creature. Fire blasted out of his elbow and he punched Croc in the snout as he turned. 

Croc stumbled back. "Igniting your elbow to increase the force of your punch? Smart. Not smart enough." He ran towards Zuko again, claws outstretched, moving at inhuman speeds. Zuko ducked under his claws and gave an uppercut with the same advantage into his stomach. Croc was thrown into the air by the force. Before he could land, Zuko sent a blast of fire at him, engulfing him in flames. Croc screamed and fell to the ground, charred and smoking.

 "He's still alive," Bruce said gruffly. "Not bad. I'll call Gordon." Zuko's chest swelled with pride, but he simply nodded. 

"There's a robbery at the R&D center of Enterprises," Oracle said suddenly.

"Blue Spirit and I are going to check it out," Bruce answered.

"10-4," Dick replied. "Call if you need backup." Bruce grunted in response and, gesturing for Zuko to follow, jumped back into the Batmobile before speeding off.

"R&D?" Zuko echoed what Oracle had said earlier. "What's that?"

"It's the Research and Development Center," Bruce replied. "It's where we store Batman Inc. tech that's still in production."

"Oh."

“That's right. If anyone succeeds in getting their hands on what's in there-"

"-They'll get their hands on everything." Zuko bit the inside of his cheek. "It's fine. We can do this."

A hint of a smile ghosted across Bruce's lips, so small that Zuko wasn't sure if it'd even been there in the first place.

__

The Research and Development Center of Wayne Enterprises was primarily used to develop advancements in technology. These advancements ranged from more effective cancer treatments to new engines for vehicles.The blueprints listed the building as being eight stories. Unbeknownst to the majority of WE's employees, there was a basement. A basement hidden far below the actual building, so far below than an express elevator was needed. This basement was where the technology for Batman Inc. was developed.

Unlike the secret basement of Falcone's club, this basement was in pristine condition. It had a hospital feel to it, with white flooring, walls, and ceiling. 

Bruce and Zuko had just grappled down the elevator shaft was landed at the end of one of the basement's hallways."The only alarm that's been triggered was the entry alarm," said Bruce. "The rooms where the... merchandise are kept have separate alarm systems. Can you tell me what this means, Blue Spirit?"

"The intruder either doesn't know what exactly is down here, or they just haven't managed to get into the rooms yet." Zuko frowned. "Wait, if they figured out this place was here then that means they definitely know what's down here. So then they haven't found the location of the 'merchandise.'"

"And you believe that to be the most probable scenario?"

"Well... yeah. I mean, unless they managed to bypass the alarm system. But that's impossible, this place is un-hackable ever since that incident with Ra's al Ghul. The security system is invincible. Right?"

"Rule of thumb, Blue Spirit," Bruce grunted, raising his arm closer to his face to he could activate his gauntlet. "Nothing is invincible. Everything has a weakness. Some are harder to find than others, but the only thing that is truly invincible is God Himself. And I don't think He would have any reason to break into Wayne Enterprises."

"Okay, but they tripped the alarm when they came in," Zuko pointed out. "So they must not have been able to hack the system."

"Unless they want us here."

Zuko sucked in his teeth. "So that's what you think? This is a trap?"

"It isn't a trap if we know about it," Bruce countered. "Here, I'm pulling up the motion sensors." Sure enough, the holographic screen coming from the gauntlet showed motion in room 121.

"Is that one of the rooms?" Zuko asked. 

Bruce nodded."Yes." He and Zuko started to run in the direction of the before mentioned room. "There's very dangerous technology in there. We need to stop this intruder now." The two were sprinting, taking twists and turns through the winding hallways until Bruce stuck his arm out, signaling for Zuko to stop. In front of them was room 121, the door ajar.

"Holy crap," Zuko whispered. "They hacked us."

"They hacked us," Bruce echoed. "And now they're going to pay. Manuever 13. Be cautious." Bruce rolled a metal ball into the room, and it exploded into smoke Using the smoke as cover, Zuko and Bruce dashed into the room. 

Using the heat signatures to see through the smoke, Zuko jumped forward, swinging down his broadswords in arc. His eyes widened as they hit air; the person had disappeared."What-" he broke off as someone landed a hit to his spine. Zuko whirled around, kicking out at his attacker, yet his foot hit air as the assailant dodged again.

"A teleporter?" he muttered. A laugh hit his ears, and the assailant landed another hit to the back of his head. Zuko tried to return the hit with one of his own but, of course, he missed.So far, Zuko noticed, they were teleporting closely around him. They were staying in close proximity with him. It would be hard to deduce where exactly they would strike, unless he limited their options.

Zuko stomped on the ground, and a ring of fire flared up around him. The attacker led out a gut wrenching scream as they were caught in the flames.He caught a glimpse of a person in a black suit clutching their arm before they teleported above his head, aiming a dropkick above him.

 But Zuko had anticipated this. He grabbed their leg from above and slammed them on the ground. They landed with a crack and coughed.

"You just broke my spine, you asshole," the person wheezed. They were still now, and Zuko could see she was a girl with long brown hair in a wine-colored robe. 

Zuko gulped, forcing down the rising panic at the girl's words. "Maybe you shouldn't have tried to break my skull."

The girl shrugged. "Just following orders."

"Who are you!?" Zuko snarled. "Tell me! Who are you and what do you want with this technology!?"

"Well, if you must know," the girl said, pain evident in her voice despite her calm tone. "I am but a servant of The Lady of the Dual Skies."

"The Lady of the Dual Skies?" Zuko echoed. "What does that mean?"

"Nothing's taken," Bruce said as he crossed his arms from where he stood behind Zuko. "Nothing has even been tampered with. You clearly weren't looking for anything here. So what did you want?"

"The Lady does not permit me speaking with anybody but you." The girl was speaking directly to Zuko, not sparing Bruce a glance. "She has something she wishes you to know."

Zuko narrowed his eyes behind his mask. "And what would that be?"

The girl grinned wickedly. "She says she'll see you soon."

With that, a portal opened up under the girl and she disappeared in a flash of purple light.

A8 B2 C14 if u are still taking the prompts 😁❤️

Hope you wanted a whole bunch of Jaime being whatever the opposite of a smooth operator is, Anon. Because that’s what you get.

A8. Lap sitting + B2. Beach + C14. Stubbornness

The beach was crowded with people and their gear: towels, umbrellas, small barbecues, and various swimming floaties that mostly seemed to have been brought to collect sand. Jaime felt like he’d been brought for the same reason.

Cersei had dragged him here because, as she put it, “You attract so many women when you go out, and I want a piece of that.”

“Isn’t that a problem if I’m attracting them and not you?”

Cersei had waved away what he thought had been a very solid argument. He’d had a long week and didn’t feel like going to the beach just to be ogled. “I don’t know why you of all people would assume everyone is straight,” she’d said and he hadn’t had a good comeback for that, so now he was here as some sort of Bisexual Beacon.

The problem was that it had taken her so long to get ready that there weren’t any good spots left. There weren’t really any spots at all, not unless he wanted to be sitting in someone’s lap. Which was when he spotted Brienne Tarth from his o-chem class, shoved under a too-small umbrella as she put suntan lotion on.

“This way,” he told Cersei, bee-lining straight for Brienne. She must have sensed his approach, because she looked up and when she saw it was him she immediately looked away again, her cheeks going pink. Jaime didn’t know why Brienne hated him so much, but she would at least make an afternoon of redirecting drooling women more interesting.

“Brienne!” he shouted before they were even close, waving his arm wildly so she couldn’t ignore him. He saw her broad shoulders heave with an enormous sigh and she gingerly lifted one big hand before studiously returning to her sunscreen application.

“Ugh, not her again,” Cersei complained. “You made us sit by her at that end-of-semester picnic, too. All she did was talk about being a doctor.” Jaime could easily imagine the impressive eyeroll Cersei was doing right now. “Going on and on about saving people and how she couldn’t be there for her mother so she wants to help others. No one is that selfless.”

“Brienne is,” Jaime said simply, and then they were there, and he dropped his stuff in the small patch of open sand. “Fancy meeting you here!” he said with a cheerful grin. “You’re not saving this space for anyone, are you?”

“Um, no, but-”

“Perfect.” Jaime flicked out his towel with a snap and then laid it down right up against hers. “Beach is packed today.”

“I’m sure there are better spots-”

“No, we checked. Walked the whole beach, didn’t we Cersei?” He didn’t wait for her response. “Anyway I haven’t seen you since the picnic, so I figured I’d come say hi. You remember Cersei?”

Brienne glanced past him and blanched a little. Jaime could only imagine what sort of look his twin was giving the hapless girl. “Hi,” Brienne said quietly.

“Glad to see you have sunscreen,” Jaime barreled on, flopping down to the towel. “I forgot mine. Can you put some on my back?” Jaime peeled off his tank top and chucked it to the side.

“Hey,” Cersei said, slightly muffled. He glanced and saw he’d accidentally hit her in the face.

But he was far more concerned with Brienne’s face, which was going several interesting and bright shades of red as her eyes strayed to his chest and then jerked back up to his face on repeat. Well. She may hate him, but she at least seemed to appreciate his body. I can work with that, he thought. He turned and scooted back so he was basically sitting in her lap.

“What are you doing?” she squeaked.

“Waiting for your help. You wouldn’t let a fellow doctor-in-training burn, would you? Pretty sure that’s against the Hippocratic Oath.”

“I don’t think that covers sunburns,” Brienne muttered under her breath, but Jaime was close enough he could hear it over the noise of the beach. He also heard the cap open on her lotion bottle, and he grinned triumphantly at Cersei, who simply showcased a truly epic eyeroll in return.

“Are you a big beach-goer?” Jaime asked, striking up a conversation as she squeezed lotion onto his shoulders. It was a little cold and he shivered, but not nearly as hard as when she pressed her palms onto him the first time.

“I used to go more at home,” Brienne said in her deceptively soft voice, as she rubbed her deceptively gentle hands in smooth circles over his back.

“Go where?” Jaime asked. Gods, her palms were smooth except for the rasp of callouses. The contrast was hypnotic, as was the rhythm she was keeping.

“To the beach,” Brienne said like he might be an idiot, and Jaime was feeling a little idiotic, distracted as he was by her fingers now rubbing more lotion down the line of his back.

“I love the beach,” he said, and Cersei shut her eyes and slowly shook her head.

Brienne stopped touching him and Jaime was worried she was already done, but she squeezed more lotion onto his back and then started again. Jaime had never been so grateful for the wide span of his torso than at this moment. It was too quiet, though, and he knew Brienne wasn’t going to say anything first.

“What brings you here?” he blurted out, and her hands hesitated for a moment along the side of his ribs, and Jaime imagined her squeezing him so hard he couldn’t breathe.

“To the beach?”

“Yeah.”

Her hands picked up their pace again and Cersei was giving him the most pitying look he’d ever seen. “Well,” Brienne said slowly. “I guess the water?”

Jaime was going to have to dunk himself in the water if he kept this up. If he was lucky, maybe he’d drown and Brienne would come save him.

“What about you?” she said.

“Cersei wants me to attract women,” he answered truthfully, and Brienne yanked her hands away. Shit. “Not you,” he added hurriedly. “I meant beautiful women.”

Cersei dropped her head into her hand and Jaime could feel the anger radiating off of Brienne at his back.

“I’m done,” she said sharply. “You can get up now.”

“No,” he said.

“No? You can’t just say no.”

“I just did.”

Brienne made some sort of aggravated growling noise, and then she shoved him out of her lap and was on her feet before he could form a protest.

“Where are you going?” he demanded.

“Swimming,” she said. “I don’t want to scare away any beautiful women for you.”

She stalked down to the water, all rippling muscles and luminous skin, and when she dove into the waves Jaime thought he might pass out from how quickly his blood rushed south.

“Wow,” Cersei said. She was watching Brienne, too, and Jaime suspected if she’d had a dick, she’d be similarly physically affected right now. “You really fucked that up.”

“Maybe a little,” Jaime admitted. He stood, brushing the sand off of his swim trunks. He could feel eyes tracking his direction, but none of them were Brienne’s. “But we only just got here. I’ve got plenty of time to make it up to her.”

“You might have the time, but do you have brain cells?”

Jaime flipped Cersei off over his shoulder as he strolled down to where Brienne was swimming, and wondered how long he could reasonably wait before he could ask her to put more sunscreen on him. This time, he would stay in her lap if he had to wrap himself around her like seaweed to do it.

DamiRae Fanfic: Vulnerable

Authors note/Summary: Takes place during the new timeline everything that happened in JT VS TT happened even Raven gifting Titus to Damien. Terra didn't die or betray the titans; she's part of the team happily. Also along the way Raven became very fond of Superman thinking of him as a father figure and a mentor. Trigon has now weakened due the help of Constantine's dark magic powers yet Raven still has him but now on a necklace since he isn’t much of a threat to her. Just wanted to clarify so there's no confusion i don't really want to focus on how trigon isn't much of a problem anymore, he just isn’t. keep in mind this is my first time ever writing a fan fiction story and writing in general anyway thank u 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

chapter 1: comfort

Damian walked into the titans conference room only to reveal the massive wreck that the previous day caused. Beast Boy would throw random little surprise parties after missions and this was like every other one. Red plastic cups scattered on the ground along with confetti after beast boy would pop them when the titans walked into the tower last night, loads of pizza boxes surrounded by random fluid that knows what it could be. As of Beast Boy and Conner, their bodies were being tangled up in the couch drool falling dramatically down their mouth. Donna and Terra passed out on the kitchen table literally on the table with red cups in their hand. Jaime has took a departure for a week to be with his family the day before, not attending this little surprise party which was a blessing for him. 

Tsk How could they be so foolish after a few drinks down their system. Damian shook his head heading towards the kitchen to get a water bottle for his morning training, not caring if he made any sound that would wake them up. 

“They’re on the kitchen table this time?” Damian looks up from the fridge door seeing a restless Raven rubbing her violet eyes with her palms. It was only 7 in the morning and considering today they didn't have training but had a conference til 2 o'clock it was rare to see her this early, usually she’ll be meditating in her room a little bit longer. Not like Damian knew her whole morning schedule or anything. 

“Yea, I guess whatever they drank last night hit them harder than usual.” Damian says, raising the bottle of water to drink, “Why are you up early?” 

She shrugs her shoulders, “I felt like making my tea first before meditating today,” Damian nodded looking at her, her hair has gotten longer a little bit passing her shoulders since the last encounter with Slade. The red crystal her father was trapped in now became part of a necklace that laid on her collarbone. His eyes traced down her body taking notice in her pajamas she wore. Her legs bare wearing a pair of navy blue shorts hugging her small curves that he would always notice paired with a rather large dark red shirt that hid all the perfections of her body. He never cared about the female body as to just comparing it to a distraction to please men yet Raven never used it for attention. She was pure whether or not she was the daughter of a demon. That's what she was to him, a considerate flawless untouched being that was real. 

“I’ll feed Titus right now you can go train to get a head start on everyone today, something tells me this hangover is going to kill them today.” Raven eyes their teammates feeling utter failure that the crime fighting superheroes at night are drunkenly passed out experiencing a hangover in broad daylight and might add underage too.

He looks down in her violet eyes, always being fascinated by them looking like a portal to infinite dimensions that could pull him in. “I appreciate it, I’ll take him out for a walk later today” Damian responds to her. She gives a small smile before turning her back to him. He had become less of a brat in his time with the titans but yet still kept his arrogant remarks here and there but it was nice seeing a change in him even if it was ever so slightly. 

He exits to the training room, activating the training system to a level higher from the day before's training. The system activates with holograms of criminals and little silver machines coming out of the ceiling to shoot red lasers at him to make it more realistic, and so he begins battling. 

It’s been quite some time that he and Raven have felt comfortable with each other, ever since Titus especially. Despite the bond that has been connected to them ever since Raven healing him with his fight with Jaime. He and Raven both knew they understood each other the best out of the team, they felt at ease with their presence. He never knew exactly when he started feeling attached to her, nor did it matter because that feeling of wanting to be closer to someone was never negotiated in his life. 

Damian grunts his thoughts cutting when the red laser slices the skin on his shoulder. The effect soon left him with a deep bloody long injury, yet Damian just went harder annihilating his acrobatics when running towards the opposite wall lifting himself to abolish the battling exercise into pieces falling to the ground becoming nothing more than a useless piece of metal. 

An hour later in the other room Raven was picking up the trash her teammates had caused last night with her magic. She knew Kori and Dick would lecture them if they came here with revolting pieces of trash everywhere. 

“Sorry to make you do this i could’ve helped you--ow” The girl with blue eyes remarked only to hit with a sudden headache when she turned her head too fast to stop Raven from picking up all the trash with her abilities.

“It’s okay besides magic, remember.” Raven lifted up her hand as dark purple magic appeared. In a quiet second all the trash was lifted from the floor and gone into the trash. 

“thank you again, so boy wonder is already up and at it.” Donna sips from her cup of tea Raven whipped up for her. 

“Yea he should be done soon.” 

“You should join him ya know training together, a touching moment to share, i mean hellooo sparks flying hmmm..” donna raises her eyebrow with her mouth being covered by the mug she lifted, “I mean come on Raven it doesn't take a genius to see you guys have a connection.” 

Raven let out a small laugh, “Yes a connection we do have,” she lifted her finger pointing to her head reminding her of the mind link. 

Donna rolls her eyes sighing as if she expected her to say that anyway, “A different one i mean,” 

Raven has never thought about Damian and her in that position before although she had to admit he was a sight for sore eyes. Puberty hit him more than the team expected, not to mention his shoulders becoming much broader along with his chest, his height now becoming a head taller than her, his voice became deeper, everything changed in appearance as for her, it was like she became small to him. 

Donna knew something was always between them; it felt like they had their own inside language in their own little way. Whenever they were with the team or on a mission they would exchanged glances and small nods as if it were a secret code.The team noticed but never once mentioned it to both of them in the room knowing damn well that damian would just oppose with an arrogant remark that would just lead to whole argument of back and forth protest. 

 “It’s not like that, we just feel secure with each other that is all.” she dipped her mouth to take a sip from the mug, “Just like you and jon” she quietly said with a hidden smirk. 

Donna’s cheek redden whipping her head towards Raven pouting, “Shhh he’s right there he has super hearing remember.” she whispers pointing at the boy who is still tangled up on the couch sleeping. 

Raven rolls her eyes, “Please he looks dead.” she scoffs tilting her head to view the boy “He might actually be dead considering whatever fluid Beast Boy made to get him like this.” 

Donna sighs lowering her tone “Still, it’s not the same thing either. Just because I like him doesn't mean he sees me that way.He just sees me as the sister of the girl his dad had a fling with. He’s already grossed out at the fact that his dad basically hooked up with my ‘sister’ at one point.” she lowers her head into her arms in defeat. 

“I’m sure he’s not grossed out. It just makes him uncomfortable knowing his dad has been with other women before marrying his mom and that women happen to be wonder women. I think you should keep trying, never know.” Raven smilies at the girl patting her head as a sign of support. 

Damian sees the two females chatting at the table or more like a miserable ball of Donna being pet by Raven. “What’s with you?.” he questions donna walking towards them with a small towel thrown over his shoulder to stop the bleeding from the wound he has just gotten. 

She sniffs, “Just some girl time. Hey did you hear about that new mission Kori has assigned for us?” 

Raven looks at her puzzled, “No. I thought she would come later today to tell us. How’d you hear about it already?” 

“She told me when we were on our way home yesterday. She thought I would take an interest in it especially, so she gave me a heads up.” 

“What is it?” Damian glared at her thinking what it could possibly be. There could be endless possibilities such as tracking down Prometheus once again or perhaps there could be a crisis in Themyscira. Either way he did not care what the mission could be as long as it benefited his combat skills. 

“It’s an undercover mission!” she lifts herself off the chair raising her fits, “Kori said that we're going to be going undercover to night clubs because of some new insights about something dealing with a new serum of something….?” she dies down her words acknowledging she doesn’t actually know what the reason of the mission is. “But! We get to go to nightclubs guys even when we're only 17 i mean come on how cool is that . Being able to dress up in cute little tight dresses, wouldn't that be fun Raven.” her eyes light up as if her dream mission was finally coming true.

Raven blinked, obviously trying to process what she said, “Uh it's not really my taste in missions.” Tight dresses? Getting all dolled up? It’s not like they never done undercover missions before but this was like stepping into a new realm into Donna’s world. It also meant she would have to wear something rather revealing to blend in but her more concern was that Damian was going to see her in scandalous clothing. He was going to see her out of her comfort zone, would he like it? Would her body even look good in it that he would take notice? What is she thinking of course not, he's used to seeing beautiful girls with voluptuous bodies at the academy. How could she compare.

 She sneaks a glance towards Damian in the corner of her eye. He looks pestered as if he was expecting a grand mission that would save human lives but instead got nightclubs? 

“Perfect. We’re going to a destination where people roofy others, drunks everywhere, with horrible music. That was your idea of an interesting mission, Donna?” Damian’s hand fell to rub his temples and bit back a curse before he caught the curious expressions of them. 

Raven shifted over to him “What’s wrong? Did you get injured while training?” immediately telling that something was wrong no matter how many layers he would secrete. 

Damian grunted rolling his shoulder to help ease the pain only making it worse when he grunted, “It’s nothing I got hit with a blast today sliced the skin above my shoulder,” he pulls away the towel exposing his hidden bloody ruptured combat injury, clearly needing healing. 

He saw Raven’s angelic eyes widen quickly putting the towel back on his shoulder holding pressure on the wound, “Come on let’s go to the infirmary so i can heal you.” Pulling his hand on top of hers when adding pressure to his wound, he nodded. Raven opened a portal, walking side by side, vanishing leaving Donna alone in the kitchen feeling like an utter third wheel in that moment. 

They sat down on the little nurse bed that stood in the middle of the room. Raven pulled herself close to him causing his knee to gently knock against hers as her body became close enough within reach to heal him . His body towered over, was he always this much bigger than her? Heat started to rise up her body flushing her cheeks with a small blush seeing his muscular arms close the sides of her hips. He looked down at her, seeing her long lashes flutter as she blinked. Oh how he wants her to look up at him to admire every perfection on her face. She turned her body fully towards him; it took everything in his power to not lean forward and just bring her so much closer to him. Her hands crept over his wound; he felt the fondness of her magic overrun his skin. Feeling it takeover the wound unleashing small sharp stings that he loved to feel. He closed his eyes, how he loved the insignificant bitterness causing a sense of pleasure run through his veins, he enjoyed it even more knowing this came from Raven. He let out a soft valuable breath from his lips as he felt the sensation disappear, damn. 

He clears his throat wanting to break the silence after his little incapable moment, “Thank you seems like you're doing that a lot to me lately.” he chuckles considering since he’s the only one who doesn’t have rapid healing abilities in the team. He rolls his shoulder again not feeling the sharp pain he once had. “Once you get healing abilities you’ll be my new sorcerer.” She gives him a soft smile. He lets out a laugh at her shaking his head playfully. She loved his smile. It was rare to see it genuine in front of the teammates, it might've been selfish but she loved that he shared this side of himself with just her. 

They sat still on the bed not moving, it wasn't awkward it was actually kind of peaceful. They both knew they didn't need words to enjoy each other's company. “This mission is going to be a pain don’t you think. It's already got Donna riled up.” Damian groans 

“Yea, males feasting on women. Gross.” 

“Especially females roofing people’s drinks.” They both look at each other snorting knowing they are referring to their own parents from their horrific ways. 

Raven sighed in defeat shaking her head “We’re going to hate this mission so much.”

“Yea we are.” their eyes met each other. The room fell silent and you could almost feel their heartbeat pacing at the same time within each other. Her heart wouldn't stop pounding as she admired his vibrant emerald eyes. She hated the effect he had on her not even realizing it himself. Their fingertips were practically brushing against each other, all he wanted was to keep her close, so fucking close. It pained him how innocent she appeared, how she could do the littlest touches, the littlest words she could say can concede him to make him do anything for her, and he will. Without breaking contact she felt his hand lift from the bed and slowly move towards her collarbone. Shivers were sent down her spine when she felt his finger tips delicately land on her necklace.

 “He doesn’t give you nightmares anymore?” his voice barely a whisper yet loud enough to break the silence in the room. She gulps hoping her didn't hear her seeing how flustered she already was, “N-no, he hasn't since Constantie ya know,” 

He nodded in response, his hand still on her now looking down at her chest, “I remember,” his voice and face expression changed stern looking down at her chest, “when I would feel your energy from the mind link. When I felt the negative emotions stirring at night all because of your father. Those violent destructive dreams yet all i was able to offer was staying with you the nights of your nightmares.”

Raven was terrified that he could feel her heart beating beating out of her chest. Why was he to bring this up now? It's been 2 months since those nights. She'd be lying if she said she didn't think about them but she did if anything she missed them so much. Those nights where he would come into her room cautiously questioning what was wrong, shaking her to wake her up only to be woken up by him hugging her. He stayed with her, made her feel safe. They were valuable memories she cared for. Even though all she ever wanted was for those nightmares to be gone she didn't realize those moments would have to become memories. Another selfish thing she had yet to add, missing him comforting her. He thinks he didn't do enough for her? He did more than enough he stayed with her, that was more than she could ask for. 

Raven carefully thought of her words, placing her hand on top of his that still layed on her collarbone, “Damian I’m more than grateful you stayed with me during those times. You offering to continue to be by my side is more than enough for me especially during those times. I’m happy you were there.” she genuinely smiled at him giving him a sense of comfort. 

Her smile. The most treasured thing he could ever lay sight on. The one thing from the very start that made him change perspective on his new lifestyle when he first came to the team. He felt like his heart just got pinched and stopped with her words, he felt a blush crept up but tried to keep it under control. He just wanted to bring his lips towards her, to let her know how much she means to him. His other hand lifting from the bed slowly crossing over him wanting to reach her soft cheek, he wanted her no, needed her. 

“TITANS! I have news on your new mission to come to the conference room to discuss please and thank you.” 

Damian’s and Raven’s bodies jumped in shock snapping their heads towards the announcing speakers to what they just heard their leader's voice come out of. Raven stands up first walking towards the exit, Damian already in the miss of her touch, “We should probably go.” 

“Right.” he follows her out the door. 

He could’ve had her right then and there. He would have made her his. Then again he was just a boy who has no idea of the concept of sentiment or romance if anything. He wanted her so bad it pained him not being able to hold her. Then again she wasn’t his, possibly never will be.

Warnings: violence, miscarriage, cheating, angst!

Word Count: 2149.

There were rumors about Rhaegar being with another woman, but you decided to trust your husband over silly people’s words. How foolish of you! Then Lyanna Stark was supposedly kidnapped and raped by Rhaegar, but you knew better. He took her away, fearing what you might have done to her out of rage. Her father and oldest brother came to plead with your father in law, but he killed them, starting a war, which was called the Robert Rebellion.

At first, you thought he was sleeping around with some random whore because you were pregnant. Since,men tend to do that due to the lack of sex, but you never thought Rhaegar would be one of those men. After all, he was kind, gentle, loving and caring. For all the years you’ve been together, he’s been nothing but good to you. Never raised his voice or hand on you.

The two of you met, while you were training. He immediately noticed your skills and instead of announcing himself, he decided to fight you with a knight’s helm on. You came close to defeating him, but he won. He was the first man to ever defeat you. You were curious to know who that man was and at that moment he revealed himself. Instead of bowing down to him, you complimented his fighting skills as if he was a normal man. That’s what he liked about you. You treated him like anyone else. With kindness and respect but not as if he was in a higher class than you or anyone else.

Naturally, you were loved by your people and each one of them would die for you.

Flashforward to the war, there were rumors that Rhaegar was killed by Robert Baratheon. The mad king was murdered by Jaime Lannister and the army of the Lannisters sacked the city.

“My lady, we have to go now. The King is dead and there are orders to kill you and the children” your handmaiden entered your room and locked it behind her. Luckily, there was a secret corridor that led to the sea, where a boat awaited you.

“Let’s go! It’s alright, you’re gonna be safe, I promise you” you kissed Aegon and Rhaenys’ forehead.

From the secret corridor, you took the children and stopped by Rhaella’s chambers.

“Your majesty, it’s time to go. King’s Landing has fallen” you informed her.

Unfortunately, she her water broke and she was about to have a baby girl; Daenerys.

“Your majesty, listen to me! You can’t have this child yet. If you do, they are going to kill it in front of you, then they will rape you and when they’re done, they will kill you. We need to move now! Just hold on a little longer” you wrapped her arm around your neck and helped her up and out of the chambers.

Your handmaiden took Viserys, Rhaenys and Aegon ahead of you.

When you reached the boat, you helped the queen on it first and started boarding the children, when three guards appeared.

“Kiyara take the children and leave, now!” You instructed your handmaiden.

“But my Lady-“.

“Do as I say now!” You kissed your children goodbye and as the guards tried to reach them, your Valyrian steel sword blocked their attack. “NOW!” You started fighting them and prevented the guards from reaching the children.

“Just three?” You asked.

“One can take you down” one of the guards said.

“If you’re so sure of yourself, why bring three? I’m the Warrior Queen. Who are you?”.

“I will be remembered as the knight who killed a queen” he smirked.

“Presumably you do live to see another day, do you think people will think that’s honorable. Three soldiers against a pregnant queen? I don’t know what’ll be more dishonoring that or that that queen defeated you and spared your life”.

“You are in no state to win” he looked at your belly and you looked down to see. You had been wounded when you tried to defend the children, but only now did you start to feel it. You feared that your nightmare has come true and that you’re losing your baby. You were so enraged, that you attacked them without thinking, tearing them limb from limb until two of them were dead and the third wounded and begging on the ground for you to spare his life.

“I would have, but you harmed by unborn baby and now I’m gonna rip your heart out with my bare hand” you knelt next to him and took his heart out from him to see before he died.

You may have one this fight, but you’ve lost the war. You lost everything. Your children were gone. Your husband was supposedly dead, the Lannister army control the city now and you were sure that you were losing the child you carried inside of you. You were badly injured and didn’t know what to do next. You lay on the sand next to the dead guards and waited for your death. Until you heard the bells.

A feeling inside of you told you that Rhaegar is still alive and is back with a bigger army.

You took your sword and went back to the city. Tywin Lannister saw you and because he knew he was losing, he wanted Rhaegar to lose as well. He took an arrow, lit it on fire and shot you in the stomach with it. Fire was surrounding your body, but luckily for you, you were wearing war clothes made of Valyrian Steel, so they didn’t melt, exposing your naked body to the world.

You took the arrow out and started bleeding again. You wanted Tywin’s head and you eventually got it.

“H-how?” He was surprised to see that you were immune to fire.

“You don’t have the time to find out” you slit his throat and ripped his head off.

Your army was winning the war and Rhaegar was searching for you, worried that you might have died.

“Y/n! Y/n!” He shouted in the streets of King’s Landing until he saw you from behind. He knew that outfit right away.

You turned to face him, blood all over you. Some of it yours, the rest of your enemies “Rhaegar” you muttered dropping your sword and collapsing on the ground.

—-

“Where are my children?” Was the first thing you asked once you woke up.

“They’re on their way home. You need to rest” Rhaegar placed his hand on yours.

“No, no! I need to see my children”.

“Y/n, you lost a lot of blood. You need to let your wounds heal”.

“You want to talk to me about wounds? How do I let my wounded heart heal? While, I was pregnant with your child, you were fucking Lyanna Stark. Then you dared to run away with her, leaving me and your children alone. Where were you when they sacked the city? Where were you when they almost killed your family? Your mother? Your brother? Your unborn sister? Your children? Me? You were too busy fucking her that your flesh and blood didn’t matter to you”.

“Y/n, I- I’m sorry”.

“Is that all you have to say? That you’re sorry? My baby is dead, isn’t he? His blood is on your hands, but mine as well, for staying here when I knew you’ve gone with her. How foolish of me!” You sat up and tried to leave the bed, but you were too weak to do so.

“Hey, hey, listen to me! It’s not your fault. I’m sorry for what I’ve done. I truly am. I will do anything to make it right again”.

“Can you bring me back my dead son? No, I thought so. I want you to leave! When the children are back. I’m going to take them away. Away from here, away from you. Away from the danger that surrounds you”.

“Y/n, don’t do this”.

“Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t”.

“I- I love you”.

“That’s not even a reason to begin with”.

“I’m the king now! I won’t let anything or anyone hurt you”.

“You promised me that a long time ago, but look at us. How can you not let anyone hurt me, when you’ve been doing that all along?”.

“I won’t let you leave! You can’t take away my children from me!”.

“Your children? The same ones you left to die? Now you want to be their father? If it wasn’t for me, they would’ve died and me along with them, leaving you to return to nothing”.

“You need to rest. I will place guards in front of you chambers and a handmaiden and the healer will stay with you” he informed you.

“Are the guards for my protection or to prevent me from leaving?” You asked.

“Both” he admitted.

“I hate you!”.

—-

When Aegon and Rhaenys returned, Rhaegar immediately took them to your room escorted by Kiyara.

“Oh, my babies!” You sat yourself up and they ran towards you to hug you.

You winced from the pain but didn’t let them go.

“Alright. Children! It’s time to go, let your mother rest” Rhaegar instructed.

“No, I just got them back, I won’t lose them again”.

“They are safe here! Nothing will happen to them” Rhaegar reassured you.

“Liar!”.

“My lady” Kiyara bowed and greeted you.

“Kiyara! I’m glad to see you. You’re the only one I can trust in this place” you looked at Rhaegar.

“Then, she’ll stay with the children”.

—-

Days have passed and you were still locked in your chambers. The children would visit you every day, but Rhaegar didn’t let them stay that long. Finally, you have recovered and started walking normally again. Today was the day you’ll get out. You didn’t know what was happening outside those four walls that you confided in.

“I have brought you food” Kiyara entered your chambers and greeted you.

“I’m finally leaving” you expressed.

“About that…” Kiyara seemed uncomfortable.

“What is it, Kiyara?”.

“It- it’s nothing”.

“Everyone out of my chambers!” You ordered the others to leave “you can tell me now, what is it?”.

“It’s…”.

“You’re scaring me! Did something happen to the children?”.

“No. His majesty brought someone back with him” she informed you.

“Lyanna?”.

“Not just her. Aegon-“.

“What does Aegon have to do with it?”.

“He had a child with her a- and named him Aegon. I wanted to tell you so you wouldn’t be surprised when you see them”.

“That monster! He dares bring his mistress and his bastard child to my residency. My city” you were so angry at him. After all, this was a sign of disrespect.

You got dressed and went to the chambers where Rhaegar was having a meeting.

“How dare you do that to me?! What kind of honorless man are you?” You barged into the room.

“Y/n, we can talk about this later. We’re discussing important things”.

“Don’t ever speak about importance again! I’ve had enough. I am leaving you and I’m taking the children with me” you threatened and he immediately ordered the men to get out and close the door behind them.

“What has gotten into you?” He held your upper arms.

“First, I lose my child because of you. Then, I’m confined in my chambers for weeks, only to find out it’s not because of me, but so you could have more fun with her. And now, you bring her and your bastard child here. Why do you hate me so much? What have I ever done to deserve this?” You crumbled in front of him and he knelt next to you.

“I don’t! I love you! I didn’t tell you before because I wanted you to heal properly and I knew if I told you, you would’ve collapsed again. She’s only here because of my son. He needs his mother. Once he’s old enough, she’ll go back to Winterfell. I do not love her. It was a mistake! But I will not abandon my son, the way I did with you and my other children. Give him a chance!”.

—-

At the beginning, you hated that baby so much and couldn’t bear to look at him. Whenever you were walking in the Red Keep, Lyanna wouldn’t come out of her chambers, but Rhaegar took the child out, for your children to familiarize with him.

With time, you have grown to love him. After all, he was innocent and wasn’t to blame for his parents’ sins. He was like the son you lost. That’s how you treated him, but you called him Jon.

You didn’t let Rhaegar into your chambers or anywhere near you, but he understood. You needed time to heal and you might never forgive him, but he was trying his best to make it up to you for the mistakes he made.

actor au; someone writes a blind item about co-stars brienne and jaime??

Oh, Anon, you TOTALLY can get this. I hope you enjoy. 

Margaery: B!! U HAVE to read this; it is TOTALLY bout u and Jaime *wink emoji*

Reading her co-star and friend’s text, Brienne rolled her eyes goodnaturedly. Ever since the series one wrap party, Margaery had been sure something was going on between Brienne and their co-star, the award-winning and infuriating Jaime Lannister. She had tried, on numerous occasions, to explain that what she and Jaime had was nothing more than grudging respect. Apparently, the recent awards season had reignited Margaery’s ridiculous supposition.

Brienne still clinked the link in the message, not sure what meme or real-life story was supposed to be her and Jaime. Instead, she was taken to a website called Little Birds. It was a gossip site full of blind items. 

This golden star of stage and screen avoided the after-parties at last night’s ‘Crimson Kingdom’ awards, instead opting to have a tender, nay romantic, moment with his statuesque co-star in their hotel bar. 

“Oh, fuck.”

Most of these blind items were pure fabrication; stretching a hint of truth into something grotesque, and the lack of names protecting the writers from any libel suits. But this was undoubtedly true. Jaime had avoided the after-parties, instead offering to escort her back to her hotel. She’d kept up a brave face for the cameras, but losing had knocked her confidence dramatically. Jaime had seen through her thin facade and, with a gentle hand to the small of her back, had led her to the quiet of their hotel where they could talk. 

Teeth gnawing at her bottom lip, Brienne did what her publicist had told her never to do: she read the comments. On the plus side, not many people believed the truth. 

Gotta be Jaime Lannister. But which co-star?? Margaery is only five-six.

DEFINITELY the golden lion himself, JAIME LANNISTER! But his ‘statuesque co-star’…do they mean Brienne THE BEAUTY? hahaha

I think it’s Drogo… . has he done some stage work?

This is TOTALLY JL and BT; their chemistry on Oathkeeper is INSANE

Out of the twenty-three comments underneath the blind item, only three even considered the possibility that it was Brienne in the hotel bar. She should be breathing a sigh of relief. After all, she loathed gossip about her personal life, and she highly doubted Jaime would enjoy being romantically linked to her. Margaery was a different story: she was pretty and petite and belonged in front of the camera. Brienne was large and plain, and her hiring as the lead of Oathkeeper had been a risk that had not paid off, as she had lamented to Jaime the previous night. 

“They’ll sack me now.” 

Jaime laughed around the rim of his glass, only pausing when he saw the look upon her face. “Oh. I thought you were joking. Brienne, the producers aren’t going to give you the boot just because you didn’t win at the Crimson Kingdoms. The fact that you were nominated at all is a huge boon to the show.”

“I know, but—”

“No buts.” He set his glass upon the table and reached over to take her hand; his thumb brushing the inside of her wrist. “You are an exceptional actor, Brienne Tarth. Alysanne is an incredible character, and you bring her to life so well. Your time will come; you just need to make them see how amazing you are.”

She felt her cheeks warm under the power of his compliments; the slight stroke of his thumb against her skin. Brienne ducked her head; her other arm shooting out to reach for her glass and the water within. She took a few gulps, all the while Jaime Lannister still held her hand. 

“And, I’ve never won a Crimson Kingdom either. And if I’ve never won a—”

“—alright, alright, I get it. I’ll stop mentally packing up my trailer.”

“Good.” Jaime finally released her hand to take a drink; she felt the loss as keenly as if she had been doused in cold water. “And, just so you know, if they’d sacked you, I’d have threatened to walk as well.”

“You would not.”

“You underestimate my integrity.”

“Underestimate your desire to annoy the producers, you mean.”

Jaime barked out a laugh. “Underestimate how much I enjoy working with you, you mean.” His green eyes sparkled across from her. “And I do, Brienne. I know we didn’t get off to the best start—”

“—you accused me of stealing your part—”

“—well, this is a reboot of the show that made me famous. And you blamed me for the cancellation of that show.”

A lot of people had. Selling photographs to the tabloids about your co-star and causing an entire production to be shut down had left a stain that was difficult to remove. But the more she had grown to know Jaime, the more she had realised that all the speculation as to why he’d done it just felt off. There was more to his story, and Brienne hoped one day he trusted her enough to tell her. 

“Anyway, I just wanted to say I’ve enjoyed working with you, and I’m looking forward to series two.”

Brienne beamed. “Me too.” 

She held out her drink for a toast, and Jaime clinked his glass against hers. Then he paused, stared, and reached out his arm so his fingertips brushed her cheek. Her body seemed to stop as he touched the blotchy flush covering her face; his touch light, almost reverent. Suddenly he was closer, too; his perfectly white teeth pressed against his bottom lip. 

“Eyelash.”

Thankfully, the bartender had announced last orders at that point, before Brienne did something utterly stupid, like fall in love with her beautiful co-star and make a fool of herself by reading too much into his behaviour. Perhaps it was necessary to put some distance between her and Jaime. Not just because of the blind item. The fluttering in her stomach every time he smiled at her was reason enough on its own. 

There was a light rap on her hotel room door. Jaime. They’d made plans to check out the hotel gym first thing that morning while everyone was sleeping off their hangovers. Reluctantly, Brienne got to her feet and opened up. He looked impossibly good in gym shorts and a sleeveless shirt; his biceps firm and inviting. Fuck. 

“You ready to go?”

“I don’t think so.”

“Okay, how long do you—”

She raised a hand to cut him off. “Jaime, I don’t think we should spend time together outside of work.” 

He blinked, shoulders sagging. Then he bobbed his head. “You saw the blind item.”

“Its ridiculous, I know, but that sort of speculation doesn’t help careers. At least not—”

“—yours. Right.” Jaime laughed; it sounded hollow compared to the warm chuckle of last night. “Being seen in public with the man who single-handedly ruined production of The Dragon King and the career of a Lann award winner…yeah, I imagine that wouldn’t help your career. Message received, Brienne.”

“Jaime, that’s not it at all.” 

“No? When we first started, you didn’t want to work with me at all. But I thought we’d grown closer, I thought we were…” He trailed off, shaking his head. “Don’t worry. We’ll keep things on set. If you can even stomach being in front of the camera with me.” 

Jaime moved quickly down the hallway and out of sight. Brienne wanted to go after him; to explain herself in some way that did not involve revealing that she was starting to develop feelings for her co-star. But she didn’t. Maybe it was better this way. Best to ruin things now before she fell even harder and hurt them both even more. At least, that was what she told herself.
