The final installment of Upward-Facing Dog, edited by @ladycyprus​, is ready and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s a long one, so I hope you’ll enjoy the ride :)

You can click on this link to read it on AO3.

‘Check my post Paperbag pants in Positano on my blog, link in bio,’ Marge invited her followers.

His fingers hovering over said link, Tommen gave Sansa a wicked look. She nodded wordlessly.

“‘Paperbag pants in Positano’. Try to repeat ‘Paperbag pants in Positano’ twenty times, as fast as you can,” the boy challenged her.

“The alliteration is mandatory for a good title,” she answered.

He snorted at her professorial tone but Margaery’s outfit quickly drew his attention again. Cinched at the waist by a tie, her pants seemed to intrigue Tommen. “Are these pants supposed to be elegant? All this fabric poking out of the belt... They’re not flattering. And why doesn’t she smile? One could think she just paid her taxes or something. I always thought Marge was a smiley person.”

“She is, in real life. But… this is not real life, Tommen. Instagram is full of sulky girls these days. And this damn wicker basket… Someone should create an Instagram drinking game with wicker baskets and furry slides.”

@asimplylucia  reblogged your photo and added: “fuckyeahyoga: oh. my. god. so precious @asimplylucia this smells...”

Interesting idea, @mllekaren, although I don’t...

Let the idea simmer, that’s all ;)

That being said... I really should start doing some yoga, find a Sandor-look-alike so I could teach it to him :p

Cecilia1204 asked me on AO3 if there were any hidden pics of Ser Pounce wearing a spider costume, as in the last chapter of Upward-Facing Dog... This pic (found on boredpanda.com) inspired Ser Pounce’s costume.

Hope it helps :)

So… My 93 year-old grandfather tried yoga for the first time today (his instructor was yours truly) and he seemed to enjoy it ! It was interesting to have an impromptu yoga session today as I’m writing the final chapter of Upward-Facing Dog : )

Upward-Facing Dog, a sneak peek

The final chapter is not complete yet, nor edited, but here’s a foretaste. Hope you’ll enjoy it :)

A perfunctory knock at the door, the clicking sound of a key in the lock and Joffrey was in before she could invite him to come in - or to stay away from her, in this case. 

As he scanned the bedroom, the distinctive upward tug at the corner of his mouth confirmed he took a perverse pleasure in seeing the result of the belated spring-cleaning he had ordered.

“What’s up, Sansa?” he finally said, turning to her.

She wrapped her arms around her knees, struggling with the impression her red-rimmed eyes betrayed her. She shrugged at his question, then asked tentatively: “Are you going to give me my phone back?”

Joffrey’s reaction, something between a head-shaking and an eyeroll, made her fingers curl into fists on the satiny fabric of the bedspread. “My laptop then?” she tried again, doing her best to remain calm.

This time the blond young man burst out laughing and something in her snapped.

“So what? I can’t go on Instagram? I can’t have a look at Margaery’s vacation looks? She said this fancy cosmetics brand had invited her to spend the week in Positano, it’s the big deal!”

Joffrey’s mouth dangled open. “Are you fucking kidding me?”

Her pleading eyes were fooling him, she knew it and it gave her a deep sense of satisfaction. Despite the fear that never completely disappeared when Joff was around, she nearly suppressed a smile. Think, Joffrey. Of course I’m pulling your leg.

His eyes narrowed more and more until they became slits that hardly showed his green irises. “You’re such a crazy bitch, sometimes.”

Her heart beat faster as she racked her brains to find the proper answer to his insult, then she said: “A bitch, really? You became such an expert in bitches lately… You mean more the manipulative type of bitch, like Marge or the thick-as-a-brick type, like Megga?”
