I’ve seen some people saying/wondering if Langdon was as attentive to Abby as he is to Mel (at least at the beginning of their relationship) and I really would like to disagree. Firstly by stating that for what we’ve seen on the show so far, Langdon comes off as a very reactive person in his relationships, kind of a “you get what you give” kind of guy.

For example, with Santos, she challenges him, he challenges her back; she’s suspicious of him, he becomes guarded around her. He responds with the same energy back.

With Robby, this tendency manifests completely different. Robby put Langdon in the position of his protégé, so Langdon responded by giving him all he could and more, loyalty, admiration, friendship. He wanted to give back as much as possible because he wanted to remain worthy of the place Robby had given him while also trying to keep his approval. But after rehab, when he was met with Robby’s coldness, he eventually started returning that energy too. He tried to make amends, sure, but once he understood that forgiveness wasn’t coming anytime soon, something shifted. He stopped reaching and started avoiding him instead.

That’s why his relationship with Mel feels so different to me. Santos brings out his defensiveness and competitiveness. Robby brings out his need for approval. But with Mel, she simply meets him with kindness, solidarity, understanding, and support, while he seems genuinely in awe and almost in disbelief of the person she is. So he doesn’t seem to be consciously trying to become a different person around her. If anything, it feels like Mel gives him a space where he doesn’t quite know what role he’s supposed to play or how to respond to it and because of that, we get to see reactions from him that feel incredibly genuine and instinctive. He watches her. He adjusts to her. He softens around her. It feels like she completely disarms him, because she treats him as though he is already worthy of her kindness, contrary to always being used to prove and show that he deserves it first.

So even if he was attentive to Abby, it was never the instinctive and special way he is with Mel.

A breath of life

by MeltedFlames

Four years after the events of AFFC/ADWD, a lost daughter of the North returns to Westeros. A deranged, humiliated queen drinks until her decisions seem to create a shadow of sense while the last Targaryen begins her reclamation of her home. An army of the dead march towards the Wall and the best defense is a man who has already known death.

I wanted to make a moodboard of this AMAZING story that I found a while ago and has easily become one of my favorite asoiaf stories so far! Just thought more people should go and read it because it’s very well written and the plot just keeps getting better and better. The characters are very well defined and we get to read their different POVs just like in the ASOIAF series.

It is a gendrya story, and their relationship develops so naturally and beautifully, you would actually think this may be canon (someday) 🤭

In summary it has everything you would want as an ASOIAF fan (politics, magic, romance, action and more). Believe me even if you’re not a gendrya shipper/fan you could go through this and still enjoy it!

frank langdon is a certified nerd therefore he likes his girls smart, so one of the first traits he fell for both abby and mel was their intelligence!!
