Uno reverse Edrya

1. What made you ship it?

Same thing as you lol, also the fact that if they become a couple and Arya doesn’t become QITN she can stay with Edric in Dorne (when not in the north) and be much freer than she would be anywhere else in the 7K.

2. What are your favorite things about the ship?

I hadn’t noticed the A. Dayne E. Stark parallel before you mentioned it, but it’s also interesting that Princess Nymeria had a Dayne husband (he was no. 3). My fav thing about the ship has to be that it gives Arya a reason to live in Dorne and she might even bring weirwoods back there, would be interesting to see some fusion of the old gods and Rhoynish water spirits (her interactions with the orphans would be so interesting).

3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

I don’t interact with discourse about it much so Idk what’s an unpopular opinion about it but I do think it’s unlikely to happen in canon cuz they’re both so young lol (unless the epilogue to ados covers that ig?). If Arya comes back to the 7k by way of Dorne, ig she could meet Edric there again (we dk where he is, so most like he’s back at Starfall) and we could have them develop feelings for each other while travelling (maybe he takes her to the riverlands to see lsh???) but George might just leave it ambiguous at the ending whether she ends up with Gendry or Edric (there’s also the Arya is ace option obv which might be what happens)

I was wrong, Edric realized at once. He had thought Arya a daughter of winter, carved from frost and steel by deathless Daena herself. Perhaps she was. But even winter feels the cold. “What is the purpose of vengeance if it brings you no peace?” he asked softly. “It’s not vengeance. It’s justice.” Edric held her gaze; a candleflame cupped in trembling hands. “The other suitors, then. Was that justice?” “I...” “Does killing bring you peace?”

I bet that the first time Edric met Arya he took her hand wanting to kiss it like a good lord does, and she blushed and yanked her hand because she got embarrassed

and when they reunite months later, Edric just smiles at her and asks if he can kiss her hand or if she yanks it again and Arya just hugs him in relief that he's still alive, calling him stupid and at the same time just saying things like 'im glad you're innocent ass is still alive" asdfgh

You’re killinggggg me I NEEEDD this (the distinct lack of Edrya on AO3 is going to force me to write fic about them).

Edric is such a sweet boy who is like, totally obsessing over tomes of chivalry and courtly love and practicing his lines in the mirror. Constantly nervous about how his hair looks or if his stance is right or if, omg, does she notice my cloak is wrinkled? After many long hours of rejection, their game has to be Edric being an overt romantic and Arya playing her disinterest because she enjoys seeing him try, enjoys the attention, and doesn’t know how to reciprocate without punching him in the shoulder (she’ll learn). I also need a scene so bad where Edric is covered head to toe in mud while Arya helps him wipe it out of his precious hair.

Ugh, I was going to write them in my longfic but now I might write a oneshot instead.

Arya Stark and Allies + “Swords”

Fear cuts deeper than swords, she told herself. "Arya." She whispered the word the first time. The second time she threw it at him. "I am Arya, of House Stark."

... Polliver had stolen the sword from her when the Mountain's men took her captive, but when she and the Hound walked into the inn at the crossroads, there it was. The gods wanted me to have it. Not the Seven, nor Him of Many Faces, but her father's gods, the old gods of the north.

The Many-Faced God can have the rest, she thought, but he can't have this.
