Anyone got any good recs for fic that take place during season 6? I’m working on a jonsa music video and thus rewatching a lot of the season and I forgot just hard how I ship the two that season. They’re both so fragile and weary and its heartbreaking seeing them find warmth in another person for the first time in years.
A few of my favorites that I’ve already read:
‘Cause I know that it’s delicate [Part1 / Part2] | noqueenbutthequeeninthenorth | 4,865 | Set during “Book of the Stranger,” immediately after Sansa arrives at the Wall. He goes to build the fire back up, and for a few minutes he stays silent, kneeling at the hearth, not looking at her. Finally he clears his throat. “I know,” he begins, “it’s not exactly what you’re used to.”
The Cold Inside Our Bones [Link] | xylodemon | 1,904 | The Wall is no place for a woman, but Jon looks at Sansa’s gaunt cheeks and hollow eyes and knows he will not send her away.
Your Body Burns Away the Winter’s Cold [Link] | Dialux | 1,599 | Sansa knows what they think of her, knows it well. Lannister, Stone, Bolton; it’s a miracle the Stark underneath hasn’t crumpled already, broken from the weight of her masks and griefs. The Northerners distrust her for her past, and the wildlings distrust her for what she represents, and in the end all Sansa has is herself, as it’s always been.
Tree of Hearts [Link] | uchiha_s | 7,239 | It was a secret, shameful thing. The more he denied it, the more unruly it had become within him: a sleeping dragon, around which he tread carefully. There was nothing good about his half-sister, he told himself, but her beauty. “I am not beautiful anymore,” she told him through teeth clenched. “It is ugly inside my heart. I am ruined.”
The Quiet Dark [Link] | subjunctive | 2,874 | “A room for my wife and I, and a stable for our horses,” Jon told the innkeep. (Jon and Sansa, during their Northern tour, pretending to be married.)
Anybody got any good fics to add to the list?
