if you’re not following valkyrien, you’re missing about half of shipweek

just saying

Adult King In The North Raised By Osha In A Place With NO TIME FOR SEXISM WE ARE TOO BUSY AVOIDING DEATH FOR THAT SHIT Rickon Stark REALLY is out here saying 'Respect women or die by my axe' and that is just the sexiest and most valid piece of historical fact ever.

Rickon Stark has no other mentality than to respect women. He sees someone do it once and just assumes they’re committing a crime. He treats them like a criminal. When he tells Osha, she just nods and tells him that he was right.

a bit random, but was the last rickeen shipweek in 2019, or did i miss the 2020 one? any plans for 2021?

Rickeen Shipweek did happen in 2020!

The lovely @valkyrien chose all the themes, which you can find here.

I wrote a seven chapter fic, posting one chapter each day, called Between the Pages.

The amazing @pingou7 wrote Everyone is killing me and everything conspires.

I posted about 50 posts a day of Rickeen and fandom-related content. Valk posted many things a day on their own blog of similar content.

And to the best of my knowledge, that was the extent of shipweek.

I currently have no plans for a shipweek this year, but feel free to come in my inbox and scream at me about when it will happen and what the themes should be!

I'm not sorry, but Rickon Stark at one stage or another in his life being thought dead enough that he's laid out publically/on an altar/in state/to Prove A Point by someone BUT instead of remaining in a relatively non-threatening recumbent position just -fucking- Appears To Reanimate, Rising With Horrible Jerks Of His Spine And Shoulders, Eyes Rolled To The White Only To Demonically Intone 'I CAN BE UNDONE ONLY AT MY QUEEN'S PLEASURE', Shireen Watching Sheepishly As Everyone Flees is just CANON.

I’m absolutely for this, but HOW DOES HE GET PRESUMED DEAD?? 

[frozensnares]

Twas the night before shipweek, And here in my bed, I write for some hours, Steering myself away from dread.

Though I know knew it was coming, I’ve finished the one, Seven’s past my talents, I likely won’t be be done.

Lockdown Rickon cannot STAND his family’s obsession with The Great Bakeoff or their claims that it is ‘a wholesome show which alleviates their lockdown blues’ being utilised as an excuse for why it is always on every screen in the house. He is starting to hate baked goods on principle, the kitchen is never not being used for some kind of baking project, and if he has to help with mixing/finding flour/taste testing ANYTHING AT ALL EVER AGAIN he is going to burn down this house with everyone inside it including himself.

... this changes when Sansa picks the wrong video to stream from YouTube one day and it opens on something about a girl in a half-face Phantom-Of-The-Opera style mask and a black leather pinny who has decided to spend her lockdown reading old horror stories and watching old horror films (because as she says she’s been so busy with coursework for her education for the past several years that she’s never taken the time to do anything like that and she’s always wanted to) and making thematically appropriate cookies.

‘Urgh,’ says Sansa, ‘I thought it was just a weird new contestant - this isn’t Bakeoff!’

‘Leave it on,’ Rickon says, ‘Or the pink KitchenAid gets it.’
