You know what would be really cool ? If the Stark kids were not simply wargs but had an even deeper connection to their wolves. We already know that there is magic in the Stark bloodline and that all the Stark children are skinchangers to some degree, even then the relationship they have with the wolves it's depicted as fey.
Now imagine it's not only the wolves that act more behaved but the children who, in turns, become more wild.
At the beginning Ned and Catelyn don't take notice of it; their children have always been active and being six of them turned them into a naturally tight group, so if Robb and Jon’s spars were a bit more violent and the youngers tended to follow much closer their older siblings, well, it wasn’t something they wouldn’t outgrow with time.
In the end it was Sansa that tipped their parents off; the sweetest of their children had almost bitten Jayne Poole’s head off for an unkind remark on Jon Snow. The Lord and Lady Stark were appalled, out of their brood Sansa had always been the coldest towards her half brother, never one to stray too far from her mother’s teachings.
From then on they started to pay more attention. It was the small things they noticed first: how Arya and Sansa, while always bickering, didn’t put the same venom as before into it, how only a look from Robb could make Bran come down from his climbing and keep him there when nor Catelyn nor Ned would ever succeed, how activities they used to do alone where now moved in one room. It was in the way Sansa’s smile, while always pretty, had enough teeth to look like a snarl; in the way Jon would stalk the halls as silent as his Ghost; in the way Arya seemed to turn just a second before someone would approach her and in the way, when angry, Rickon’s eyes would look just a bit green.
It was also in the way all of Ned’s children seemed to favour meat just on this side of raw.
Ned wasn't stupid, he much like his children has grown up with the tales of Old Nan, but the tales of past generations never mentioned too bright eyes and a predilection for freshly butchered game.
Still, the way his children are now behavig may be slightly unsettling but they have banded together more tightly than ever and, as every Stark knows, when Winter comes only the pack survives.
