I don't remember the name of this fic but I will add it in later. It was a Jonsa time travel fix it AU.
The conversation takes place after S, A and J explain everything to Ned.Ned speaks to Jon privately and says this (paraphrasing abit):
"My wife hating you solidified the lie I told that you were my bastard. Her reactions to you and her despising you proved to be the best protection of all. Sealing the lie as truth that you were my bastard son."
Ayyyy when I read that paragraph I was so hurt but also bruhhhhh it was so smart.
This is an angle that I've never considered before and I love that we get to explore all sides of a universe and its characters in fandom.
