❄️Winter King Playing Hero HCs❄️

Had this silly scenario, that given Winter King's... questionable way of handling relationships, if he ever fell for someone he'd absolutely try to make them fall in love with him by playing hero and saving them by problems he himself created... only for things to backfire. So... here's some HCs about that!

Don't worry, I'll save you!

Falling for you:

It was... almost instant, like a lightning struck. You were a new citizen in his kingdom, and you definitely had a way of standing out from the penguins and the other creatures that inhabited the place. He couldn't quite put his finger on WHY you caught his eye so quickly, but you did.

It wasn't difficult for him to actually crossing your path, the city area of his 'Winter Wonderworld', actually wasn't that large, and his frequent strolls around town made it quite easy for you two to get acquainted.

You were... understandably surprised that the Winter King seemed to love chatting to you every chance he got, and you two quickly became friends. It wasn't a difficult process, the guy had a lot of charisma, and his positive attitude towards everything made him a fun company.

However, what started as simple curiosity to know what you were all about, quickly turned into the King crushing on you. Your laughter was contagious, and the attention he was getting from you felt... amazing! Especially after being on his own for so long.

He wanted you to notice him too. And what better way to ensure that, than make you realize how amazing he was? (He doesn't know you already think that)

And now you need rescuing on a weekly basis:

Of course, when he comes to actually make you fall for him, he's... an absolute idiot; he's probably forgot how to woo someone in a normal way after hundreds of years on his own.

So he comes to the completely sane conclusion that the best way to go about it is is to put you in troublesome situations so he can swoop in and save you. That will totally not backfire once you'll inevitably find out.

Luckily, you never get hurt, but they can still be stressful situations: roadblocks, a sudden monster attack... and he's always there to get you to safety just in time.

At first you were totally oblivious about what was truly going on, and you'd always cling to him and thank him for saving you, which... only made the man want to do it more. It felt really nice to be able to save someone like that.

However, soon you start catching on. All your troubles seem to be caused by ice, the monsters are made of ice, the roadblocks and obstacles are made or caused by snow... And WK always seems to conveniently be close-by.

You decide to confront him about it, and after some pushing he finally admits that yes, he was behind all of that. He SWEARS it was just because he wanted to impress you, but don't want to hear anything else from him, you feel betrayed and you walk out of his castle holding back tears.

Enter Candy Queen

Freaking out:

What you were both unaware of was that a certain bubblegum girl had been keeping an eye on you two, growing more and more jealous of your interactions with Winter King by the day.

And the day she decided to kidnap you to 'keep you out of her love life', was exactly the day in which you and WK had that confrontation. She waited for the right chance, and snatched you away as soon as you came out of the Winter Castle.

WK saw everything, and instantly freaked out, he knew Candy Queen too well to think for even a second that you'd be okay.

This immediate freak-out... shocks him. His heart is pounding with worry for someone other than himself. All this time he thought all he enjoyed about you was all the attention you'd give him, but... he actually cared about YOU.

He couldn't just let things play out, he had to save you, even if you were still mad at him, he was not going to let anyone harm you.

True feelings:

Rescuing you from Candy Queen's grasp wasn't going to be a challenge at all, as the crown's powers easily surpassed anything she could do. He just had to be quick, he knew CQ could be very unpredictable, he dreaded to think what she could be doing to you-

What he was most worried about, was how you'd react, he knew you were mad at him, what if you thought that getting kidnapped by CQ wasn't just another one of his plans to play hero? What if you refused to be saved??

WK manages to get to you just in time, before Candy Queen blends you up and bakes you into another one of her candy servants. freezing everything over, stopping the blades right in time and freeing you from the ropes.

You're still upset at him though, about to ask him why he's there, but then you feel Winter King hug you, not in the usual way though, with that odd air of superiority he always had, no... this time you can feel him shake, his hands are trembling.

"I'm so sorry..." there's a slight cracking in his voice, which hits you deeply. If there's one thing the King never did before was apologize. In this moment, he'd want nothing more than a kiss, but he knows it's too soon, that he'll have to regain your trust.

But... he's fine with that, he doesn't mind to wait, as long as you're willing to give him another chance. He wants to fix his mistakes, be honest from now on. You're the first person in centuries who's managed to warm his heart again, and he wants to prove that to you. ... Will you let him?

Different from the others

Okaaay, so, please, be kind to me, this is the first fanfic I ever post at tumblr, but my friend @porrabett showed me this beautiful gif from @gendry (thanks for letting me use it here, hon!) and I couldn’t not write this, it was like…there, begging to be written. Jon, Dany and Arya are my favorite characters, so I just had to! I have 3 more fics to post, not finished but almost there…anyway, I hope you like this.  Arya sees Dany staring at Jon from the stands of Winterfell patio, while he trains the youngest with the new dragonglass weapons, and they talk about Jon and Arya tries to decide what she thinks of Dany. Daenerys could feel herself being observed, but over the course of her life, being watched was something she became used to. She was too mesmerized by Jon Snow’s movements with his sword, teaching his people how to defeat the Army of the Dead, to mind the eyes that would not leave her.

What she did not know is whom these eyes belong to: a certain she wolf.

Arya Stark was curious when she heard of Jon’s commitment to Daenerys Targaryen, she understood his needs for her army, but knowing his brown eyes too well, there was more to it – more than a political alliance, it was admiration, maybe even…love? The woman that found the way into the heart of her dearest brother intrigued the assassin.

She saw the platinum haired woman watching Jon, she would watch him like Arya remembered her mother watching her father from above: as a woman watched her beloved.

If this Daenerys had any bad intentions towards Jon, she was good at hiding, but Arya was good at finding lies at people’s faces, and she saw none in hers.

For now, that was good enough for her. She would not try inviting her for the game of faces any time soon.

(gif by: @gendry)

“Was he always this – determined?” Daenerys heard Arya arrive at her side, while she saw Jon give the young boys and girls their dragon glass weapons, and lecture them about it with so much respect and patience, that only a true Eddard Stark relative and northern man would.

“Yes” Arya smiled to her side. “When I was younger, no one would ever let me use a sword, or a bow, or even mount a horse properly…I was supposed to be a Lady, not a Knight, like I wanted. I was meant to sow, enchant and smile.” Arya remembered bitterly. “Jon would see through all this crap, you know? He would sneak me out of my room, in the middle of the night, and take me out into the stables, when there were no one awake around and teach me how to mount a horse, wield a sword or even how to hold a bow properly.” Daenerys would not stop smiling at herself, this suited what she come to meet and love about Jon Snow.

While he did the same for these kids, that he had done to me years back, except snow was falling harder, winds were howling louder and winter was here.

Winter was here, but the Dragon Queen heart seemed warm towards Jon, that did not went by unnoticed by Arya.

“He doesn’t seem to share the common men opinion on where women belong” She comment and Arya smiled.

“No, he doesn’t. He never did. He always told me to pursue my knight dreams. He never did get the chance to fully teach me how to wield a sword, but he did give me my own” Arya took Needle out of its sheath, and proudly showed it to Dany.

“He gave it to you?” Dany was both proud and not surprised at all, she didn’t know Jon Snow long, but sounded like something he would have done for his little she-wolf sister, he would not break her dreams, he would encourage her to pursuit it. Who was this man?

“You like it? I called it ‘Needle’, Sansa had hers, to make her pretty dresses, I had mine to torn mine to pieces. Jon had it made for me. He gave it to me right before he left for The Wall, right before all hell broke loose for all of us.” Arya looked at her beautiful sword, remembering happier times. “Little did we know, the storm that we had coming our way” She sounded so sad, Daenerys had do look away, and stare at Arya Stark, and she could not help but feel sad for her.

She did not know her well, but from what Jon so sadly told her the other night at his chambers, his sister had seen their brother murdered and mocked alongside his direwolf, her mother killed, her father decapitated and had witnessed so much more…Dany could still feel the pain of her sweetest child falling across the sky, Viserion and not being able to help, not being able to save him. To know this young girl saw her mother, brother, father and so many others suffer the same destiny and could not do a thing? So much more pain than anyone in her age should be allowed to. Daenerys was a dragon, Arya was a wolf, but life hadn’t been kind for either of them, making them pay for their fathers choices. Dany wasn’t fond of the the Hand of the Usurper, but from what everyone says, he was quite an honorable man, and the world is running short of those. But he made choices, and his family paid for it, damned be the Lannisters for it.

Now meeting Arya and Jon, even the beautiful but distant and guarded Sansa…A man who had such children must have been a great man, for his children seen to have inherited bravery, endurance and something else Dany cannot name yet, but pleases her enough to make her feel welcomed in a foreign cold land such as Winterfell.

Maybe it had something to do with the white wolf sleeping next to her and Jon every night; maybe it had something to with the King in The North himself, snuggling into her side through the night, after the most meaningful and passionate love making Dany has ever had; or maybe it was just the air of this place, where you can’t help yourself but believing everything you were told growing up, where you cannot forget the White Walkers are coming and a place where Winter is coming is definitely not about the seasons and the Starks words seems more like an omen compared to mere house words.

“I am sorry for you lost, Lady Arya. For your father, mother and brothers” Dany spoke to her.

“I am no Lady, my Queen. But thank you” She looked down, and remember her painful training and what it taught her. “Valar morghulis”.

“All men must die” Dany answered her with a bitter smile “But we are not men”. Dany looked back to Jon.

“I’d like them not to, so perhaps…let’s stick to Valar dohaeris”. Arya could not help but be sure she liked Daenerys Targaryen without a doubt, now. Jon could marry this girl, she seemed to be just in love with him as he was with her.

Not to forget, the woman had two amazing dragons! That should be interesting… (more to come?) to my bae @porrabett that stands me talking about nothing but got 24/7 for the last months (and prob the next ones too lol)
