By the end of the year she had taken to talking to herself, and had come to have a deep aversion to the color green.

Jenny of oldstones
I found an old piece for Jenny that I never posted! She is one of my absolute fav characters her story is so sad but it’s still beautiful. In my notes for it the flowers in her hair are representative of madness, undying love, love, grief, consuming love, and sorrow.

High in the halls of the kings who are gone Jenny would dance with her ghosts The ones she had lost and the ones she had found And the ones who had loved her the most The ones who'd been gone for so very long She couldn't remember their names They spun her around on the damp old stone Spun away all her sorrow and pain And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
A wonderful piece for Sabezra week done by the lovely, talented, and amazing @meldy-arts ! The song in the description is "Jenny of Oldstones" from Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire.

Catelyn as Jenny of Oldstones (F+TM) goes so hard tbh. High in the halls of the kings that are gone? She is the King who is gone. She couldn’t remember their names? She is Lady Stoneheart now. The ones she had lost? Her Stark family. The ones she had found? More like found her, the Brotherhood + Brienne + later Arya. The ones who had loved her the most? Her Tully family. Jenny would dance with her ghosts? Lady Stoneheart’s purpose. It’s a song she loved growing up, and now it’s about her? Fun. Jenny was born in Oldstones and Catelyn was resurrected in Oldstones? Fun. She used to act-play Jenny as a child and now she is Jenny. She’s haunting the narrative by literally haunting the most painful part of the 7 kingdoms, like Westeros is a living body and Riverlands are the bruised, bleeding heart. And she never wanted to leave. My god.

PRINCE DUNCAN TARGARYEN:The first to disobey aegon was his eldest son, Duncan, prince of rocadragon and heir to the throne. Despite being engaged for a long time to a daughter of baratheon house, bastion of storms, in 239 AD, during a journey through the lands of the rivers, he fell in love with a strange, beautiful and mysterious young woman who called herself Jenny of oldstones and lived ina state of semi-savagery among the ruins, calling herself the successor of the ancient Kings of the first men, although in the villages of the area people mocked those tales and insisted that she was only a half-crazy peasant, if not a witch.His majesty did everything possible to annul the marriage and demanded that Duncan give up Jenny, but the prince, who had inherited his father's stubbornness, refused, and did not even twist his arm when the supreme septon, the grand master and the privy council met to insist that king aegon force his son to choose between the iron throne and that savage of the woods. Instead of renouncing Jenny, he did so to his rights to the throne, in favour of his brother jaehaerys, and abdicated as prince of rocadragon.

Do u think the my featherbed song is the strongest evidence for a possible gendry/arya romance? I rarely see anyone outside of shippers talk about it but it feels so obviously referencing them
Yes, I think that's the best evidence. Many of their interactions taken separately can also be interpreted as friendship or brotherly love, while this interaction has an undeniably romantic subtext. I mean is literally a love song, and the scene at times seems copied from a rom com.
Furthermore, while other interactions may show at most the signs of a little crush, this one is full of forshadowing for the future. Arya is not the maiden of the tree yet, she is just a child in a green dress that makes her look like an oak tree. But when the summer has passed the oaks are dressed in golden leaves and little tree girls become maidens of the tree.
It's full of readers who read the books in their entirety years ago, and therefore investigate this or that piece of text outside of the chapter in which Martin decided to place it. This means that many clues that can be derived from the context gets lost. And there are also plenty of readers who are more interested in the characters from Robert's Rebellion than the ones currently alive. Which is totally valid, everyone has their favorite asoiaf pieces, but sometimes when I read those kind of metas it feels like a totally different fandom.
If you want my opinion, outside of the obvious Gendrya forshadowing, the theory about this song that has more merit is that it was written, in universe, to talk about Duncan and Jenny of Oldstones. Because some pages earlier we saw Tom singing Jenny's song, so it makes sense that this type of song is part of his repertoire and that the bard is thinking about that. And it makes sense for the text to draw a parallel between these two couples: a prince/princess and a commoner with royal ancestry, living their story in the forests of the Riverlands.

House Targaryen & Forbidden Love
Wind and words. Wind and words. We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy.

“High in the halls of the kings who are gone Jenny would dance with her ghosts The ones she had lost and the ones she had found And the ones who had loved her the most
The ones who'd been gone for so very long She couldn't remember their names They spun her around on the damp old stones Spun away all her sorrow and pain
And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
They danced through the day And into the night through the snow that swept through the hall From winter to summer then winter again 'Til the walls did crumble and fall
And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
High in the halls of the kings who are gone Jenny would dance with her ghosts The ones she had lost and the ones she had found And the ones Who had loved her the most”

Prince Duncan Targaryen & Jenny of Oldstones.
The Prince of Dragonflies loved Jenny of Oldstones so much he cast aside a crown, and Westeros paid the bride price in corpses. (ADWD, Chapter 67)
