Happy New Year Viv!

Sorry about the forced socialization. I'd trade places with you if I could. Parties with strangers is one of my favorite things (I know, I know), but we are hunkering down here, unfortunately.

I've had this fic idea in my head forever, but I don't know that I'll every get to it with the pace I'm getting through my existing wips. So this isn't necessarily a question or a prompt (though if it inspires anything, like I said, I probably won't get to it), but just a gift of this unwritten fic that will probably never see the light of day

- Coffeeshop AU where Jon is Sansa's manager at a hipster coffeeshop. He is a grumpy coffee snob. She actually smiles at customers and thinks they should stock oat milk and syrups. They don't really get along.

- One day Jon leaves his laptop open on the counter after his shift is over (he's in the back or something), when Jeyne, Sansa's roommate is visiting the shop. Jeyne snoops, and they discover that Jon is a popular BNF and fanfic writer in the same fandom (similar to GoT) that Sansa is also a popular (but more niche) fanfic writer.

- Later that night, at their apartment, they snoop more. Jon writes plot heavy, political fics that are 300,000+ words with a focus on medieval accuracy and NO SMUT. Sansa writes hurt/comfort steamy romances between a non-canon pair that her part of the fandom is sure will eventually be canon, but they are often dismissed.

-Feeling cheeky, Jeyne leaves a comment on Jon's latest chapter (logged in as Sansa) that says "When is someone, anyone, going to bang already?"

- Sansa is aghast but it also makes her laugh. She deletes the comment and forgets about it, until the next morning when she logs into tumblr and realizes Jon has been sending her messages.

- This turns into a situation where she and Jon start working on a fic together under their pseudonyms but only Sansa knows that WhiteWolf23 is Jon and CommitCrimesforLemonCakes is Sansa.

-Hijinks ensue!

Anyway, Happy New Year! I hope the forced socialization is more pleasant and passes faster than expected!

Anna!!! This is AMAZING and I want this fic someday! I don't care if I've gotta wait for it 🤩

Seriously, I love a good Coffee Shop AU and I want to do another Career Day Romance this year but this one needs your perfectly Snarky Jon who's still loveable with his Coffee Snobbery and 300K word fics with NO smut 😂.

I love that Sansa's clearly a Jonsa in this (they hate us cause they ain't us 😌) and I'm with her on writing romance over political-focused fics 💤

I have a half-started story of Sansa the hidden fic writer but it's told from Theon's POV. Basically, Theon discovers his gf Jeyne reading fanfic and gets into it. Later, he realizes that one of his and Jeyne's favorite writers in Sansa. (My real-life bestie and I bond over this stuff after all.) Theon, being Theon, assumes that single Sansa must get all her amazing smut scenes from stuff Jeyne's shared about them when she's actually secretly involved with Jon. Hilarity ensues when this comes out. But anyway...

Thank you so much for brightening my inbox with this deliciousness and I hope you enjoy your hunkering down. Lucky for me, these aren't strangers (that would really have me running for the hills) but a 'late' extended family Christmas. I just want to be comfy tonight, you know?

Since your asks are open...fuck/marry/kill:

Dany in Sansa's coronation gown

Arya in Sansa's coronation gown

King Bran

Troublemaker!

Fuck - Daenerys in Sansa’s coronation dress. It’s not fucking, it’s love making.

Marry - King Bran. Given my husband has filled the small council with incompetent losers, I shouldn’t have any difficulty spending all his money.

Kill - Arya in Sansa’s coronation dress. This is a mercy kill; she’d violently end herself if she ever wound up in this position.

Are you writing a Night's King fic????? I want to read it!!

Yes, I am! Hopefully it will be posted sometime early next year. 🤞

FMK: Jonerys' version of Sansa, Sansans' version of Sansa, Arya stans' version of Sansa

👀

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

New favourite?

I'm going to get you good.

Fuck - Sansan stan version of Sansa. Super porny and down for anything.

Marry - Jonerys version of Sansa. A bad bitch, have to put a ring on it.

Kill - Arya stan version of Sansa. This is the worst possible Sansa. Responsible for everything wrong in Westeros. Must be stopped at all costs.

Hey! I'd love a poem from you ✴

Hello chispas! The poem I chose for you is called Besides, Little Goat, You Can't Just Go Asking For Mercy by Kaveh Akbar because it half reminds me of your writing and half has the sensual feeling of determined survival in the face of intense longing that I think you'll enjoy.

Besides, little goat, you can't just go asking for mercy.

With a body like that, it's easy to forget

about the spirit—the sun unfolding over your coat, your throat

too elegant for prayer. I like it fine, this daily struggle

to not die, to not drink or smoke or snort anything

that might return me to combustibility. Historical problem:

it's harder than you'd think to burn even what's flammable.

Once, I charged into your body and invented breath. Or,

I stumbled into your mouth and found you breathing. When I left,

I left a lozenge of molten ore on your tongue. Stony grain-pounder,

sleepy pattern-locator, do this: cover your wings, trust

the earth, spread your genes. Nothing here is owned. The ladder

you're looking for starts not on the ground but several feet below it.

10 and 22 for the writer's asks ✨

Thanks for the asks, honey!

10) write in silence or with background noise? with people or alone?

I need silence. Music tends to distract me. Only exception is instrumental stuff when I want a certain mood. I’d prefer being alone to write but there’s almost always people around me whether I’m at the office (with my door pushed up) or at home with the fam. If I can block them out enough though, I can focus and tra-la-la off to my little worlds.

22) are there any subjects that make you uncomfortable to write?

I like making myself happy while writing fic in general but I also find it cathartic to explore more difficult things. I’ve written about illness and grief some especially relating to losing my father or other loved ones. I’ve also written abuse. However, I tried writing some about molestation which I later deleted b/c it was too personal in the end to share. I think losing a child would be something I couldn’t write about.

62 & 64!

62: What makes you happy?

Spending time with my daughter, listening to music, reading, watching mindless TV series (like That 70's show), travelling, decorating for & celebrating holidays, and zoos/aquariums!

64: Would it be hard to kiss the last person you kissed?

No, actually. We didn't work well together as a couple, but we're still friends! I think he's actually my only ex that I still talk to! 🤣

Thanks for the ask! 😊
