[ourmrsreynolds]

You mentioned popular jonrya fics in your last ask and I was wondering if you had any more popular jonrya fic recs because I'm out of stuff to read (and I've already been through @jonryatrash's starter pack) :(

i know the feeling of having gone through all the fic and wanting more, so i feel you! you can check out here where i reblogged @jonryatrash‘s excellent starter pack and added a few of my favorites, with commentary. Since i’m sure you’re as capable of using AO3′s search function as I am, the value* in fic recs is not so much “here is a list of fics” as “here is why i, a specific person with specific tastes, liked these particular fics.” for instance, i’m super partial to Outsider POVs so have some outsider povs:

[*if it’s a big ship that’s a different situation, there’s probably a lot of content you’d miss without recourse to reclists, but we are not a big ship lol]

as bastards do by @circe1fanatic (11k, complete) wherein Cat dresses for Arya’s wedding as for a funeral. In the back of Catelyn’s mind has always lurked the lowkey possibility that somehow Ned’s bastard will take Winterfell away from her trueborn children, and you can’t blame her for freaking out when all her worst fears come to fruition. She sees Jon as perverting Arya’s devotion to him and seducing her into this marriage; she explicitly contrasts Sansa & Jon’s relationship (not that close) to Arya & Jon (nothing held back). The delicious irony of it is Cat is half the reason Arya and Jon are close in the first place lmao. I mean, I think obviously Cat is trying to give her daughter the tools to survive in a feudal patriarchy where performing femininity is really really important; not every highborn girl who bucks gender standards can expect her brother to love her just the way she is (or to turn out to be her cousin and to marry her). I am on the whole highly sympathetic to Cat. But watching her get everything SO wrong in this fic (she walks in on Arya half-naked in Jon’s bed) i was literally ohohohOHO shoving popcorn in my mouth.

Cripples, Bastards, and Broken Things by @laboratorioautoral (3k, oneshot) aka the one where Tyrion comes North on Queen Dany’s orders with a list of unreasonable concessions for King Jon to sign his name to. Tyrion is married to Sansa but he falls for Arya over cyvasse (!!!) yes this is the Love Triangle That Was Promised by GRRM. Tyrion’s no fool, he see show it is between Arya and Jon, and what I like about this story is that it’s ambiguous whether (1) Arya and Jon are banging on the DL or (2) Arya and Jon are not banging but really want to (there is a v suggestive forehead kiss). Remember how Jaime said “The Targaryens married brother to sister” and Cersei blew him off with “But we are not Targaryens”? Jon and Arya have had to make the same sort of compromises here; in order to rule the North together, they can’t be together openly and it’s GOOD SHIT. If you like this kind of ambiguous outsider pov do yourself a favor and read this Maxicest fic where Clint and Laura try to figure out what the deal with Pietro and Wanda is [prompt: “Someone (another canon character or an OC) tries to figure out if all the touchy-feeliness is actually weird and inappropriate, or if they’re the one being weird and inappropriate by looking at sibling affection and reading incest into it.”]

Chasing the Winter Sun by starbursts_and_kisses (3k, oneshot) aka the Jon/Sansa arranged marriage in which Sansa is shattered by the revelation that Jon’s in love with someone else, and always will be. Sansa’s got low standards partnerwise (see: Joffrey, Tyrion, Sandor, Petyr – not to say she wasn’t attracted to any of them, but she experienced mistreatment at their hands) and if there’s one thing Jon won’t do it’s mistreat her. It strikes me that Jon and Sansa are both introverts. They muddle along until Arya comes home. The Jonrya reunion is epic, and Jon’s smiles actually touch his eyes. Arya, as well all know, is not an introvert. Arya and Jon spend all their time together. They go riding a lot, and they spar in the training yard and laugh at secret jokes. Sansa finds herself sidelined in her own household. When she finally summons the courage to confront Jon about it, it’s because she sees him MUSSING ARYA’S HAIR. i love it bc it’s (1) the iconic Jonrya interaction and (2) completely innocuous, there’s nothing inherently sexual about touching your sister’s hair and Jon must have done it thousands of times when they were growing up but the second Sansa sees it she just knows. akdjfdkfjdkfd

Thanks for the ask, this was so much fun! I think if everyone’s ok with it (i kinda feel bad about clogging up our tag, it’s a pretty slow moving tag) i’ll just keep posting fic recs/squee on a semi-regular basis

Favorite JonArya fic theme (or trope)

There have been new fics & recs popping up lately on my feed (I missed Jonrya secret Santa week so I’m also playing catch up) and it got me thinking what is your favorite JonArya theme?

Is it weirwood sex? King Jon? Targ Jon? Queen Dani? Queen Arya? FM Arya? Wilding Arya? Post finale battle? Dark!Jon? Sweet stolen moments? Sexytimes in general? Lol and the list goes on, go & sound off fam!

I love them all but I have a weakness for a unrequited fics where the struggle isn’t between Jon & Arya getting together but in the people looking in wanting them. Like Gendry coming back and taking an interest in Arya and stirring things up because jealous Jon is a thing that I also love! Or these yummy fics with sansa drawing the short straw: Comes Before A Fall by @hxnabee [Kurojouou on AO3] & Chasing the Winter Sun by starbursts_and_kisses [AO3]. Another personal favorite of mine with this theme is Winter’s queen in spring by @museme87 which has Dani holding out for Jon *I’m still hoping to see what Jon told Dani to make her leave someday 🤞🤞🤞* 

These are just a few with this theme there are so many awesome creators in this ship from authors with more fics and artists who create mood boards or banners that feed my love for this pairing! If I didn’t mention you above your awesome too i’m just listing a tiny portion with this particular theme. If I miss anyone in the tags please feel free to add on! The more the merrier! :)
