immediate top 5 game changer episode btw there’s just so much to love. the slow reveal of the rooms. ify being the first to lose in room 1. catherine mccafferty being the episode’s main character and breakout star. the set design for all of the rooms but ESPECIALLY the spot the difference ones. 25 grants. the friendship(?) between hannah and the bouncer for room 2. demi accidentally plotting his own downfall by saying pop goes the weasel at the same time as hannah. sam trying to fill time while waiting for a player to win their way back up. the pic pong got him. a true fucking delight all the way down and back up again
If you have ever known anyone with a kink for being hit, or beat up, or raped and you're okay with them, you also gotta be okay with the people who's kink it is to do the hitting, the beating, or the raping. At the end of the day, we're adults playing pretend, and that's it.
With every single sub i have the first thing we ever do is establish the safe word (stoplight system), and the non-verbal safe word in case they can't talk for any reason. If I can't tell where the sub is at, I will ask them point blank what is their color, and if they can't give a response, we stop. The goal is to make the other person feel good, including pain, and the most important part us knowing your subs limits and LISTENING to them. I will *never* hurt a sub in a way that they have not explicitly expresssed interest in.
Jon has summoned a dragon to the north in the firm belief that it will be their salvation. And while Sansa has faith in Jon, she struggles to believe that dragons are the means to deliver the north from oblivion.
I Can't Steal You (Like You Stole Me)
Rating: Not Rated
Status: WIP
Summary:
Seeing the only family Sansa Stark had left to her was the only motivation keeping her astride the horse. Jon Snow is at Castle Black. He’ll protect you. It had been so long since she felt safe, felt protected. She yearned for the security of familiar arms and someone who cared for her because she was Sansa and not a Stark. The nerves she may have felt over arriving at Castle Black alone to see the half-brother she had not seen—had barely thought of—in years did not consume her, nor did she allow herself to feel disappointment that it was not Robb or a trueborn brother to save her.
Only, upon her arrival, she is told of the mutiny. Then she is asked an impossible question: What would she give to have him back?
winter shall howl

Status: On Hiatus
Summary:
Since leaving Winterfell her life has become a series of befores and afters, of thens and nows. Yet she can’t help feeling like she is staring down the edge of a precipice. She was raised to practice her curtseys and mind her manners, not plot murder and conspiracy.
Still, she plasters another dimpled smile on her face and sips her wine, wondering how anyone in King’s Landing could think she would choose to submit to her fate. She’s a Lady, yes, but she is still a Stark.
She always will be.
Or;
In an alternate timeline the Starks are a little older, a little wiser, a little more dangerous. It doesn't save them, it only makes them bare their teeth—as wolves are prone to do.

Embers in the Snow

Status: WIP
Summary:
"How could he say it–that he was in love with her in a way that consumed him? That he loved her grace and her fury, her scars and her stubbornness, the way she held the weight of the North on her shoulders and still carried herself like a queen? How could he tell her that she had rooted herself so deeply into his soul that he no longer knew where she ended and he began?
He turned towards her, the firelight dancing across her features, softening her edges into something ethereal. Her face was half-lit, half-shadowed, her lips parted as though she were already waiting for the words he still hadn’t found."
After escaping the clutches of Ramsay Bolton, Sansa finds herself at Castle Black. While preparing for the war against the Night King, something stirs between Jon and Sansa, something neither of them can deny despite all that they face.

Summary:
Night falls. Enemies rise. All that stands between humanity and the void is a fragile coalition of uneasy allies. But war is never as simple as it first seems, and no war is more complicated than that which is waged within the human heart.
When Jon finally replied, his voice was low and rough. “And you, Sansa? What am I to you?”

Summary:
“I will be a silent, and dutiful wife,” Sansa spits. “I will be their pretty little songbird, and wear their ugly crown, and sit on their painful throne. I shall give him a babe, and my love, and I will wait until he thinks that he has won. And then I shall take his life."
Shae goes still. "You ... you plan to kill the King?"
"No," Sansa says. "I plan to kill my husband."
The Thawing of Winter
Rating: E
Status: Complete
Summary:
Sansa knew Jon married her—married Alayne—for the Vale, or maybe, because of his past, he saw her as a fellow bastard and meant to raise her up the same as his people did for him, how they chose Lord Eddard’s sole surviving son as King in the North. But when she looked at him, she saw nothing of the sort in his eyes, only a flash of desire, the way a man ought to look at his wife, before he steadied his gaze. If this was truly wrong, she wondered, then why did the gods let it feel so right?
What Lies Beneath Her Skin

Status: Complete
Summary:
AKA "Know the Love"
Sansa Stark returns to a fractured North for the first time since traveling south as a young child to be fostered by her Aunt Lysa in King's Landing. Stannis Baratheon's troops have broken against the walls of Winterfell, starved and weakened by the relentless northern storms - their King's fate unknown. Roose Bolton lies dead within Winterfell's walls as his bastard, Ramsey Snow dances a bloody minuet with Jon Snow, the half-brother whom she has never met, and his rag-tag band of wildlings in the northern woods.
Petyr promises that it's time for a true Stark to return and bring these mongrels to heel, with the might of the Vale behind her. Yet, the girl does not feel like a true Stark, nor does she know how to break free from Littlefinger's claws. A chance encounter sets her on course to Jon Snow's war camp, where disguised as Alayne, she helps the resurrected King-in-the-North unite the North and become Sansa Stark once again.
More book than show, with the twist that Sansa was fostered in King's Landing, and Jon spent is earliest years with the crannogmen meaning they do not know each other before the events depicted here. Focused on Sansa. Sansa is Alayne for most of the story.
