Hi! I'm your jonerys secret santa this year. Am so excited to do this! Okay, so I'll be writing a oneshot for you. What should it be about? I'm open to canon and modern aus, cracky ideas, sizzling smut, angst with a happy ending, and a whole lot more. One of the few things I'm not comfortable with is writing post-s8 fics (I refuse to accept s8 as canon), but other than that, I'm all ears. So, hit me with prompts. What would you like santa to bring you this year?
Santa !!!! I was already so excited to do this but your message is just the best, I feel so blessed !!!
I am a bottomless pit of ideas when it comes to prompts⌠Iâm afraid I am going to give you way too much to read, sorryâŚ
What I like in Jonerys stories is the fire and ice allegory as a representation of their tempers as much as the balance their union brings into the world. I like Danyâs excess fire (as a creative power source not madness!) and Jonâs lack of it (as a guy who lost his hopes and ability to believe after his resurrection and all the harassment he endured). I love reading about how Jonâs ice anchors Dany better and how her fire grows back his wings. My favorite settings are missing scenes from season 7 on Dragonstone and alternative stories of their meeting. Season 8 does not exist.
If this is inspiring enough for you, I would be delighted with anything you enjoy writing about it. If you would rather write from prompts, here we go:
About missing scenes from season 7 on Dragonstone:
Cersei sends Euron Greyjoyâs fleet against Dragonstone during the night. Dany and co. wake up to find the island surrounded with ships. All her advisers strongly oppose her bringing out the dragons because one third of the ships are equipped with scorpions. Jon comes up with the idea to attack the ships from under water as the scorpions were designed to strike flying dragons, not swimming dragons.
During his Dragonglass search, Jon is irresistibly drawn by an extremely difficult tunnel to access. He finds a tremendous amount of dragonâs stone eggs there. He decides to show his discovery to the Queen. He is surprised to find out she has mixed feelings about this.
Dany expresses her concern about the Dothrakisâ future in Westeros. Jon claims the key issue is communication and that they must learn the common tongue. The Queen doubts she can ever convince them to do so. Jon offers to give it a try as he heard they were horsemen and respected strength.
After mining Dragonglass all day long, the King in the North spends his nights in the castle library in search of anything he could come across to defeat the Night King. Dany cannot fight her curiosity very long and ends up joining him every night pretending she can help with the Valyrian manuscripts. Her family books do talk about dead creatures and long nights, they also talk about children of the forest, dragons and she finds out her great uncleâs date of death, Aemon Targaryen, is missing from the records...
About alternative meetings:
The North, led by Jon Snow, has defeated the Night King and ended the Long Night. Cerseiâs disastrous management of the South during this four years long winter led the people to revolt. Â Daenerys fed the revolution and easily overthrow the Mad Queen when the time came. Now she wants the North but its King refuses to come down South. She moves her armies north to teach him a lesson. But under Jonâs government, the North has grown as powerful as Danyâs armies and dragons. They have giants who can throw spears as big as the Scorpions, mammoths, strange explosive weapons offered by the Children of the forest after the NK was ended, etc. In short, they have as much magic as she does and she cares for magic creatures more than anything. She cease the battle and opens negotiations. Apparently that King has the same soft spot as she does for magic endangered species.
Same context, except Dany is moving north peacefully to negotiate. During her journey, she enjoys to put on simple close to blend in the population with Missi, Grey Worm and Jorah and try to get to know the northerners before she arrives at Winterfell. But she keeps running into this mysterious young man everybody seems to love and who leaves an awkward sensation in her stomach.
After his resurrection, Jon does what he said: he goes south because Sansa never made it to Castle Black to prevent it. He is empty and has no goal. He wanders aimlessly Meereen streets when a gang of thugs starts claiming his pretty sword. He is spotted by Daario as he effortlessly gets rid of them and is offered a job in Queen Daenerys Private Guard. Somehow Jon is getting the Queenâs attention by doing absolutely nothing.
Did you find something matching your own interests so far? If not, let me know, there is a lot more in stock. I wish you can have as much fun writing as I will have reading your little story!!!
