@both-stark-and-baratheon, @jewishstarks, @gendryxaryatrash, & @everythingendrya: y'all gotta start paying rent if you're gonna be on my blog lol. @ me if I am on your blog and not paying rent (aka writing fic) 😂😂😂

@jewishstarks said: If you ever want X-Men comic recs that is 100% my thing!!! Also I’m not actively avoiding or seeking out spoilers, if I see them then I see them and it’s not a big deal :) 

Thank you so much for the offer :) I normally only read favorites, which means I've only constantly read Daredevil comics (and it's still very few comics, but he's the ones I've been buying/reading since I was 10); two years ago I started also reading Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. And soon (there's a BD expo happening here, which I'm going either this weekend or the next) I'll be buying my first Inhumans comic, because I've fallen in love with Medusa and Black Bolt.

Occasionally I may buy a volume of some other superhero, so if I ever have the need for x-men, I'll come to you :)

I'm glad then, I'm the same way about spoilers

What the hell is a tefach?

The stark children attempt to build a sukkah

Idk whats happening here

Happy Sukkot!

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

"Are you sure you know how to do this?"

"I've been learning gemara for years. If I could get through masechet sukkah, I can build an actual sukkah."

"Probably."

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

"Is the secach from last year still usable?"

"I dont think we have enough walls......."

"When can I start decorating?"

"We really have to eat out here?"

"Its going to rain all chag......."

"Biggger then this,smaller then that, enough light to see the stars, but enough shade not to see the stars.........."

"Get ready for years of that"

"What the hell is a tefach???????"

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

"I have no idea if this is kosher"

"Can it stand? Its fine. Let me decorate."

Rickon and Arya totally get super into it and compete with each other, though

I've only seen the first episode so far, but I read the book last week and watching the show was still utterly creepy and terrifying. They did such a great job. (Also I really appreciate a lot that Elizabeth Moss isn't wearing any makeup at all, that struck me right away)

yeah they did such a good job capturing the tone of the book visually.  and yes! i agree!

[bookedandbusythough]

hey I was wondering if you had any good gendrya fic recommendations, I'm in need of some. please & thank you

Thanks so much for the ask and sorry for taking so long! Especially since I promised to make another AxG fic recommendation list not that long ago. If you want to see my first list before going through this one, you can find it here.

So, for this list, I’m going to start with recently written works currently in progress that I’m obsessed with:

The Thief by sionnach_glic on Ao3This one is written so incredibly well and includes a few different POVs and…just…every single interaction between Arya and Gendry is SO amazing. It was one of those fics that I wanted to read all in one sitting but couldn’t because I didn’t want to get to the end and have to wait for another chapter.

The Million and One Ways Arya Could (Should) Have Been Mentioned by SecondFromTheRight on Ao3Completely and totally obsessed with this one since it gives us everything we didn’t get from Season 7 and more in terms of Arya actually being discussed by literally everyone she’s had past interactions with together in a group (sans Jorah and Tormund). It’s just so great and addictive and updated frequently.

Warrior’s Hands by faithisbrokenn on Ao3Another recent one I’m really loving. Warning: there’s smut in Chapter 1. Haha or newsflash, not warning, lmao. I just love the way that Arya and Gendry are written; their dialogue is spot on. And gendrya + reunion + kissing + more = everything.

Now I’ll go back in time and list some favorite old classics:

I’ll Run (Run To You) by my absolute love @jewishstarksAn old old favorite. An actual masterpiece. One of those G has to compete among others for A’s hand. Absolutely and completely lovely. You won’t stop smiling.

Oblivious by winterwaters on Ao3So as I’ve said before, I’m cautious of most modern AUs, but this one is soooo amazing. You’ll see what I mean when you read it. All the feels! Very true to A and G even though it’s modern.

that Stark girl by xxxidrilxxx on fanfiction.netAhhhhh I have been looking for this story since I first read it like a year and a half ago. So bad news is it’s incomplete and hasn’t been updated since 2015. Worst possible case scenario in fan fiction, I know. BUT…if you’re willing to suffer that most awful of fates, this is an awesome modern au of the whole story, mainly focused on A & G on the run. Maybe if there’s a resurgence of popularity of the story, the author will finish…?

Not Another Coffee Shop AU by the legendary @rabbitbaratheonBecause it really isn’t just another coffee shop AU. For a self-proclaimed wary-reader-of-modern-au, I sure am recommending a lot. While you’re at this story, I’d recommend checking out all of her works!

Like Wenda by our very own darling @furious-winterBecause it’s an all our dreams come true brotherhood AU, and A & G are written SO well. And while you’re there, check out everything else by @furious-winter ! You won’t be disappointed.

If you’re looking for a reunion fic that’s tiny but huge with feelings try:No One and Someone by AmberMagic on fanfiction.netORLead Me Back To You also by the darlingest darling @jewishstarksBasically while you’re on Ao3 on @jewishstarks ‘s page (belasteals on ao3), read everything. She’s a gendrya fan fiction angel.

In addition, as a Gendrya fan, in case you haven’t already, you should check out @gotpresident ‘s AMAZING gendrya comics found here, here, here and here and follow her for updates!

Ok so I wanted to make this longer but I also didn’t want to make it too long so basically I’m going to compromise by waiting awhile before making another one of these, and in the meantime, go back and find all the other really good fics I was dumb enough not to bookmark. There’s so many and it feels so unfair to have put two of these out without even coming close to honoring all the incredible gendrya works out there.

@jewishstarks said: I’m an episode behind because of classes but I love The Gifted SO MUCH, as an X-Men fan it hits all the right notes and every single character is now my child but especially Blink and Eclipse

Ohhh... sorry for the spoilers...

But yeah, I really like it so far!! I didn't have a fave until Caitlin in this episode!! And this is probably my favorite X-Men property now :)

X-Men have never been my favorite marvel thing and it's probably because I grew up not watching those movies, because they weren't my dad's favorite, unlike Spider-Man or Fantastic Four. So I've only watched them later in life, and comic wise I've read two (and one is "House of M" which I read because I LOVE and know Scarlet Witch from the Avengers comics/movies). But I'm so glad I gave this show a chance!!

And I'm really glad X-Men fans and you really enjoy the show as well!! :D

Seven, Thirty, Twelve

Or, I found this amazing Jewish!starks headcannon by @jewishstarks and broke my radio silence on this site by writing a shitty fanfic. I have a lot of feels about this family. 

 In Judaism, death is not a tragedy, even when it occurs early in life or through unfortunate circumstances. Death is a natural process. Our deaths, like our lives, have meaning and are all part of G-d's plan. In addition, we have a firm belief in an afterlife, a world to come, where those who have lived a worthy life will be rewarded.

  Seven

The first day it rains, as if the heavens mourn with them.

  Robb stutters over the Kaddish, the unfamiliar Aramaic rolling awkwardly off his tongue. No one comments. A fifteen year old should not know how to say Kaddish. By the seventh day he knows it by heart.

 Jon doesn't sit shiva, he can't, he’s just a nephew, only a son can sit shiva ( what about good as a son? What about the only father I’ve ever known?) the law doesn't care. He says Kaddish anyway.

  Sansa distantly wonders how she can care about her appearance right now,(tear stained face, no makeup, no showering all week, Same clothes) staring at the rip in her shirt, the one she did herself,  the one she’ll have to look at all week.

  Arya has friends. lots of friends. They crowd around her in her grief but they fade to meaningless noise because her life is over (she’s never felt more alone, not ever)

 Bran sits listlessly on his uncomfortable chair because he can't get up, not even if his legs worked, and for once his family understands how he feels not being able to get up and walk to the kitchen for a bagel. The thought gives him no pleasure.

 Rickon is scared and confused (where’s papa i want papa when is he coming home) and he doesn't want to sit and listen to people talk and give him food all day (Why isn't he coming home) and he cries and throws fits but it doesn't work (Why did you leave us?)

 The seventh day the sun breaks through the clouds, watching the starks get up and go outside for the first time in seven days. (Where do we go from here?)

 Thirty

 She watches her sons say the prayer she doesn't understand for a month. She watches her children laugh and fight and grieve and she wonders why she can't, why all she can do is bury herself in preparations for the gravestone ( Beloved father and husband, a pillar of his community, a man of piety and charity taken to soon may his memory be a blessing) and he was her partner, her rock for so long that she doesn't know how to process existing without him ( we need to make decisions about  the unveiling,we need a minyan we need to make sure it's wheelchair accessible we need we need) We need Ned back. The thought hurts her more then she is willing to comprehend, so she buries it ruthlessly and goes to comfort her children(she needs to stop being so strong on of these days. Today will not be that day, it can’t)

 ותייה נפשו צרורה בצרור החיים

 Twelve

 The year goes by. They get used to not listening to music, to skipping out on dances and trips. Sansa’s bat mitzvah comes and goes ( she sobbed hysterically when she remembered she was turning twelve- Father made it to Rob’s bar mitzvah, and Jon”s, it's not fair ,It's not fair) Her dvar torah is one for the history books. ( She had started it with father, but he never got to finish it)

 The holidays go by, one by one,Shavuot and Tisha b’av and  Rosh hashanah and Yom Kippur ( haven't we atoned enough this year?) and Sukkot and they don't have to say yizkor, not yet not till next year and then it's pesach and the boys stop saying kaddish every day and then it's been a year .

  They take the day off and drive to the graveyard. They light a candle. They say kaddish for the elevation of his soul.

 Shiva. Shloshim. Yahrtzeit.

Seven. Thirty. Twelve.
