This week’s @femslash-friday-prompts ‘whispers in the dark’ got me thinking of a fluffier AU for Sansa where she goes to Highgarden instead of King’s Landing. Margaery gently teaching her many things and opening up her mind to other possibilities for herself. Of her reading sapphic poetry by candlelight - whispering the words out loud that make her wonder - with a treasured rose from Margaery on her nightstand.
Game of Thrones moodboards: Sansa/Margaery - Modern AU - celebrating Yule
I’m about 10 days early but I got inspired by this week’s @femslash-friday-prompts picture prompt to do a Yule moodboard for these two. I didn’t end up using that wreath picture in the end but it definitely got me thinking and creating this so I think it counts still.
Game of Thrones moodboards: Braime - Zombie apocalypse AU
Two lone souls cross paths in the dangerous landscape of the apocalypse.
Brienne searches for her god-daughters, intent on delivering them safely to the isle of Tarth, which remains free of the ravages visited on the mainland.
Jaime’s the last of his group of survivors, heading to his family’s bunker near the coast. Despite everything he has seen, he clings to the hope their money has bought them adequate security to survive too.
They team up out of necessity, both recognising fate has thrown them together as an otherwise unlikely pair. Growing familiar on the journey, they learn how to tease out laughs and smiles from each other with gallows humour and memories shared; rare moments of humanity proven in the hellish circumstances. But it's just finding comfort in having company once more.
Neither expects anything more than someone to pass the time with and have their back. Then comes the inevitable, the point where they must part ways. Somehow saying goodbye seems suddenly so much more complicated than it ought to be...
A fanmix for Game of Thrones and the relationship of Jaime Lannister/Brienne of Tarth. I’ve been lurking in this fandom for ages and slowly been working on this mix for almost as long. I’m not sure I could do fic well for them but I hope this fanmix is enjoyable.
The narrative I went with has Jaime still leaving in 8x04 but it’s AU after that and he does find his way back to Brienne eventually. And I know some of the lyrics in a couple of songs aren’t quite right for them but I liked the songs overall for them.
Ao3 listing here. Can listen on Spotify here or on YouTube playlist here. It’s not on 8tracks yet but if anyone wants it on there let me know.
1. The Golden Floor - Snow Patrol
You're cold until my body bathes / You in the heat I kept aside / All these days / I'm not afraid of anything / Even time / It'll eke away at everything / But we'll be fine
2. Undisclosed Desires - Muse
I want to reconcile the violence in your heart / I want to recognize your beauty is not just a mask / I want to exorcise the demons from your past / I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart / You trick your lovers / That you're wicked and divine / You may be a sinner / But your innocence is mine
3. Let Me Down Gently - La Roux
Turn me into someone good / That's what I really need / Tell me that I'm someone good / So we're not so far apart, apart / I hope it doesn't seem like I'm young, foolish and green / Let me in for a minute / You're not my life but I want you in it
4. I Dream Of You - JJ Heller
When you fall asleep / What will you dream / Castles and Kings / The story's been read / And you rest your head / Warm in your bed / My love may dream / Of beautiful things / Till the dawn of the day / Bright and new / Wherever you go / I want you to know / When I dream / I dream of you
5. Sign Your Name - The Flying Pickets
Time I'm sure will bring / Disappointments in so many things / It seems to be the way / When your gambling cards on love you play / I'd rather be in hell with you baby / Then in cool heaven, it seems to be the way / Sign your name across my heart / I want you to be my baby / Sign your name across my heart / I want you to be my lady
6. It Could Be Sweet - Portishead
I don't want to hurt you / For no reason have I but fear / And I ain't guilty of the crimes you accuse me of / But I'm guilty of fear / I'm sorry to remind
/ But I'm scared of what we're creating / This life ain't fair / You don't get something for nothing, turn now / Gotta try a little harder / It could be sweet
7. Would Anyone Die For Me? - Jacob Groth
no confessions to be made / just believing all is unprepared / you won't even hear me praying / destiny is to be unaware / silence, quiet now / no one in the crowd / there's no place to be / there's no one to see / would anybody die for me?
8. Iron - Woodkid
A million miles from home, I'm walking ahead / I'm frozen to the bones, I am / A soldier on my own, I don't know the way / I'm riding up the heights of shame / I'm waiting for the call, the hand on the chest / I'm ready for the fight, and fate
9. Old Wounds - PVRIS
They say don't open old wounds / But you're still brand new / And all the flames you said you ran through / You got a little more to prove / One day I'll give you my heart / When it's not in two / They say don't open old wounds
But I'm going to / I think I could love you 'til the day that you die / If you let me love you when the timing is right / And if they said I had to, I swear I'd wait my whole life / I think I could love you 'til the day that you die
10. Back To The Sky - Ólafur Arnalds & JFDR
So has my world become run out of breath / I'm not the only one to lose a friend / Where do you go? You're going home / What do I do with the void in your shape / Leaving me frailty, a drop and I break / What do I do with half of myself? / And then when stars align with some kind of peace / I could be loved by you, either way / Where did you go? You’re going home
11. Back For Me - Electric Guest
I only want you here / And I’m trying to find a reason but I only want to hear / Coming back for me / Hope you're coming back for me ... For now I know I’m on my own / Until the day you call me home
12. Long Live - Taylor Swift
I said remember this moment / In the back of my mind / The time we stood with our shaking hands / The crowds in stands went wild / We were the kings and the queens / And they read off our names / The night you danced like you knew our lives / Would never be the same / You held your head like a hero / On a history book page / It was the end of a decade / But the start of an age
E comunque adesso che gli spoilers non possono più farmi del male mi sono comprata tutti i libri di ASOIAF in un colpo solo così posso finalmente capire tutte le teorie interessanti... perché MANCANO 10 MESI ALLA PROSSIMA STAGIONE!!!
Potrei scrivere qualcosa... ahahaha... ho millemila Theon/Robb in mente, ma se prima non ho un po’ di dettagli non riesco a iniziare... però Robb come Lord Stoneheart...
(bé almeno ad agosto passo per Siviglia e faccio le foto ai water gardens)
