it must be puppy love | part one meet cute
Ooops it turned into a 20k fic so here’s part one of Himbo Ghost the crack fic you didn’t know you needed! Also these two are assholes, just warning you. 🤣
Turning a corner, she froze, glaring at the lone individual making his way towards her. With his stupid, dumb, oversized wolf-like, white cotton ball of a dog, who had zero manners, and sometimes she even thought you could look between one of his ears and see straight out the other side. He also had red eyes-- what kind of dog had red eyes?
"Oh look, it's the dragons," his owner called out, approaching her slowly. He leaned his head down, stage whispering to his dog. "Don't look them in the eye Ghost, you might turn to stone."
Her lip curled up, smirking, and choking back on Drogon's leash so she didn't get too close to the idiots. "Careful Drogon, he might get his Northern on you."
"Ooh burn."
"I am a dragon after all."
"Cute little comeback, going after my heritage like that."
She made a face, giving them both a wide berth. "Come along darling, pay that mean old man no attention, and his stupid dog too."
"You know I wonder if you can answer a question I've always wondered."
"what?" she asked, before she could catch herself.
The Northerner, with his clear gray eyes and his head of lucious black curls, tugged today in a pretentious little manbun to go with his pretentious little running outfit of black shorts and gray dryfit shirt, which she was disgusted to see showed off his muscular chest and arms in a most delightful way, smirked again. She noted that he'd trimmed his beard; he'd had a stupid little moustache for a few weeks before growing the beard back in thank the Gods, but it was looking a bit unkempt.
He chuckled, low in his throat, cocking his head. "How do you walk with that stick so far up your ass?"
Dany lunged, intending to attack, but Drogon cut in front of her, thankfully stopping her from full blown assault. "Asshole!" she shouted.
"Learned from the best!"
She stood in place, fuming, and so pissed that her already foul mood at Drogon not being well had gotten fouler. It always did when she encountered him. He was the worst.

three stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
::In very convincing Matthew McConaughey Texan:: Alright alright alright, 3 stars, 3 fics to disclose little nuggets of info on...
1.  From Fixer Upper, Chapter 4 - Jon and Dany’s text exhange:
She was laughing even as she sent the text, knowing how touchy he was about this topic. Honestly, it was the whole reason she sent it.
Dany: I can’t believe we’ve been fake dating this long and you haven’t sent me a single dick pic 😖
The text bubble appeared for so long she was a little worried, but then his novel-length answer appeared. She was two lines in before she was laughing so hard she was crying and her vision blurred beyond her ability to continue reading at all.
Jon: How ABSOLUTELY DARE YOU?! Apparently I need to explain this AGAIN? If the Westerosi Security Agency is going to see my dick they can come here and do it in person like men. I’m not just gonna offer it up on a silver platter for them. Also need I remind you I am a small business owner, madam? This store is my kingdom and you ask me to besmirch it’s good name so you can see my cock at 2 pm on a Thursday? I’m disappointed in you Daenerys, I really am.
It should probably come as no surprise, given the ‘Buttslut’ text I shared awhile back, that a lot of the dialogue I write (including text messages) comes from the way my husband and I talk to each other, and in this case I based Jon’s reluctance to free the Peen digitally off my own husband’s unbreakable stance that sending dick pics means your dick is then somewhere in the cloud and idk I guess he thinks the Governtment is just chilling and collecting nudes all day.  Anyway, I really did ask him once when we were dating why he had never sent me a dick pic and he said something along the lines of Jon’s response here, and even now, years later, it still makes me laugh, so I used it :)
2.  A Thin Line (Just some thoughts on this fic in general, that I’m not sure I’ve shared):
I was SURE, ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that a lot of people would hate this fic.  Like, I was over the top about ‘Hey this is crack’, etc, because as much fun as I had making them just awful people to each other, I was like ‘ugh there’s gonna be some stans in both camps that maybe get pissed about this’, but I figured fuck it, let’s do it.  The thing about them in this fic that I really, really enjoyed writing was that they are completely and totally unapologetic about themselves, and letting myself just really let them be the worst versions of themselves, I don’t know, guys.  It felt good.  So good that I was like ‘hmmmm, maybe keep it in the drafts.’
Because that’s the thing I like best about them and this fic - it’s not a redemption story about two tortured souls who find each other and then learn the error of their ways.  It’s more like two villains meet at villain convention and will they birth the antichrist?  Who knows, really, but probably, yes.  Definitely.
Anyway, I really dug that so many people enjoyed their unspeakably assholish tendencies and please know I haven’t abandoned my part 3, in which Dany gets to snob it up in the North and you know, so more light bondage, maybe some matching prenups, I don’t want to give it all away.
3.  From Fang and Claw, Chapter 1:
“When you say fucking,” Drogon drawled, “what exactly do you mean, snack?”  The three were all gathered near the stone walls of the Keep, guards watching anxiously as the three creatures of legend circled and paced.
“Stop calling him that.”  Rhaegal leaned in, nipping at Drogon’s swishing black tail.  “He has a name.”
Drogon rolled his eyes, looking at his brother incredulously.  “I’ll call him whatever I like.  What’s he going to do?  Howl me to death?”
Rhaegal glared, inching closer to Ghost.  “He’s magic, like us, and he’s Jon’s, so you’d better behave.”  The green dragon growled.  “You know what mother said.”
The black dragon gave a dismissive snort, his eyes searching the windows of the Keep instead of Rhaegal or Ghost.  “Be nice.  Yes, I heard her.  This is me.  Being nice.  Not eating this talking little snack.”  His eyes shot to the wolf’s.  “Rather nice of me, isn’t it,” teeth gnashed together, grinding as Drogon uttered grudgingly, “Ghost.”
The white wolf ignored the black dragon, his eyes also falling to the windows.  “You want to know what fucking is or don’t you?”
“I want to know what it is you mean when you say Jon is fucking my mother, yes.”  Drogon sounded angry, offended even, and Ghost was surprised two mighty creatures could be so absolutely innocent to the ways of the world.  Why, he’d been fucking for years now.  Surely there were girl dragons flying about somewhere, though the lack of fucking certainly explained the black dragon’s horrible attitude.
“I feel itchy.”  Rhaegal was shifting restlessly beside him.
Ghost gave a wolfish grin.  “You’re bonded to Jon now.”  Rhaegal nodded though it was not a question.  “That’s what it feels like when Jon’s fucking your mother.”  The wolf’s mouth fell open, and he panted in Drogon’s direction.  “Like an itch you need to scratch.”
His red eyes fell to the windows till he found the one he wanted, and he whispered for the duo to follow as closely as they could as they slid along side the ancient stone, ‘til they were just under the window to Jon’s chambers.
“Hear that?”  He certainly could, and by the look of confusion on the dragons’ faces they could as well.  The Silver Dany let out a throaty yell then, followed by Jon’s name, the sounds and smells of mating flowing from the open window and out into the night.
“Is he hurting her?”  Drogon was rumbling and thrashing his tail about, rage building in those mad eyes.
But Rhaegal responded before Ghost could answer.  “No.”  He drew the word out, his head rising until he could look into the room for himself, then shooting back down to stare at Ghost.  “Why are they doing that?”
Drogon mirrored his brother’s actions, even angrier but endlessly puzzled when he lowered his head as well, clearly befuddled by what he’d seen.  “Explain this!”
Ghost gave a shrug, padding off a few paces, ready to give his brother a spot of privacy with his mate, heading for the clearing along the tree line where he could scent some rabbits running.  “It’s what they do.”  The pair was scrambling after him, landbound, awkwardly lumbering after the sleek wolf.  “Humans.”  Both dragons remained clueless, and Ghost snagged a hare and crunched down heavily, warm blood streaking his fur, downing the small prey in a few bites before continuing.  “When they want to make a pup.”
Drogon shuddered as he watched Ghost eat.  “You’re a fucking savage.”  He grumbled and groused, claws swiping out to catch an elk, idly shooting out gouts of flame to cook the meat before he began to tear it apart.  “You don’t even cook your food, little snack.”
Rhaegal ignored it all, focused only on this new knowledge.  “But our mother is a dragon.”  His eyes lit up, suddenly, turning to his brother in excitement.  “It’s how they make eggs!”
Ghost gave a snicker.  “Humans don’t lay eggs.”  He looked at the pair with amused eyes.  “You lot come from eggs?”
Rhaegal gave a nod, but Drogon preened, proud as he broke his meal’s rib cage between his jaws.  “You should be so lucky.  We certainly do.  Beautiful eggs people pay large sums of gold for.”
Ghost crouched, his attention on the deer he could now sense beyond the tree line.  “Like a chicken then.”  He leapt as the black dragon roared in outrage, his jaws sinking into the deer’s neck, and he pulled the twitching body out of the treeline to drop it in a heap before Rhaegal.
“NOT LIKE A CHICKEN!”
Rhaegal looked at Ghost pleadingly before he cooked the deer his host had provided, his eyes begging the wolf to stop baiting his brother, and Ghost grumpily complied.
“Alright, not like a chicken.  Point is, humans have pups that look like them, and they don’t come from eggs.”  He sat on his haunches, watching the pair as they ate.
“So,” Rhaegal snapped into a femur, “you meant to say that’s what Jon’s doing.  Trying to put a small human in our mother.”
The wolf couldn’t stop the snicker of amusement.  “Oh, no he’s already done that.”  He looked at the pair wonderingly.  What sort of beast were they, that they couldn’t smell the pup in their mother?  “Now he’s just fucking her because it feels good.”
There is nothing funnier to me than the idea that (1) Ghost would ever try ot explain to anyone what sex is and (2) that the dragons wouldn’t know and would be VERY offended and it took a little bit for me to write this scene way way back ago when we all thought that Season 8 would not be a massive shitstain in history because I kept laughing so hard picturing this shit.
This story is probaby one of my favorites, just because it’s silly and every magical creature is TIRED TIRED I SAY of everyone dicking around and just the notion that they’re all like ‘THESE HUMANS ARE SO DUMB UGH DO WE HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING?!”  It just really tickled me, and I might never have written it had the amazing @aweseeds not requested it after her winning bid for the Jonerys Unites charity event.  So, everyone say thank you to aweseeds lol, this might’ve just stayed in my head and silly tumblr posts without that fine investment in fandom content.
Thank you lovely @frostbitepandaaaaa for the ask!  I LOVE YOU BITCH, I AIN’T NEVER GONNA STOP LOVIN’ YOU BITCH!

Kisses 13 for the prompts
Another Halloween one! (I’ll add this to the AO3 collection with the insta post when I get home from work lol)
13. When One Person’s Face Is Scrunched Up, And The Other One Kisses Their Lips/Nose/Forehead
“Woah, look at that one.”
Jon nods towards the house to their left, covered in spiderwebs, an army of carved pumpkins on the stoop and ghosts hanging from the trees. They sway back and forth in the mid morning breeze, Ghost’s ears perking as he watches the movement.
“Wow,” Dany says, brows raising. “This neighborhood really doesn’t mess around with decorations, do they?”
“No, not at all,” Jon says. A low growl sounds from the dog walking between them, Jon’s eyes immediately darting down. “Hey, Ghost, relax. It’s not real, boy.”
“It’s alright,” Dany says, patting his head comfortingly. Jon smiles at her when Ghost quiets, bounding ahead of them again, his leash still hanging slack in Jon’s hand.
“I feel a little self conscious about our two pumpkins now,” Dany confesses. “We haven’t even carved them yet.”
Jon shrugs. “In our defense, we’ve been a little busy,” he says, and her heart flutters, eyes darting down to the shiny new band on his ring finger that matches her own.
“Mm,” Dany says, and Jon switches Ghost’s leash to his other hand so that Dany can tuck herself into his side. “I guess that is a good point.”
“Besides, we still have time,” Jon tells her. “Halloween is in what… a week?”
“Yes,” Dany says, shrugging. “Still, I don’t think that’s enough time to decorate our house like these.”
“Well, it’s a good thing we live in the next neighborhood over then, aye?” Jon teases. “Not everything’s a competition, love.”
Dany’s face scrunches as she looks at him, and Jon laughs, eyes shining. “Technically,” she concedes. Her husband— gods, that still feels so weird and so wonderful to think— leans over, kissing her furrowed brow sweetly.
“Maybe next year,” Dany says. “I want the giant inflatable cat we saw at that other house. And we could cover the porch in spiderwebs, and…” She trails off, thinking of all the possibilities. Jon smiles at her like he’s trying not to laugh.
“Whatever you want,” he promises. “But, ah… I think our free time and energy might be even more strapped next year, remember.”
His hand, at her waist, pulls her in tighter so that his fingers brush the side of her stomach, resting on the gentle swell there currently hidden by her sweater. “Oh,” Dany says, almost laughing as she remembers. “Mm, that is a good point.” She smiles at him softly. “That’s crazy to think. Next Halloween, it’ll be the three of us.”
Ghost circles back towards them, rubbing up against their legs before he races ahead again, and Jon chuckles. “Four of us, you mean.” He pauses, considering. “Plus the cats, so… seven, really.” He grins at her. “We’ll end up as the Von Trapps or somethin’ for our costumes.”
Dany laughs. “Oh, gods, Drogon would murder me in my sleep if I forced him into that.”
They fall quiet, continuing ahead on their walk in comfortable silence. “Have you thought about it at all?” Jon asks. “You know. Tellin’ people?”
Dany nods, eyes casting down. She’s four months pregnant now, which means they probably should have told everyone, but still no one knows but Missandei and Margaery— and that wasn’t exactly intentional. “I know,” Dany says, voice quiet. Jon squeezes her hand, and she instantly feels more at ease.
“I know you’re scared,” he says, voice completely free of any judgement. “And it’s up to you, love. I was just wonderin’. Whenever you want, aye?”
She knows he’s been dying to tell his siblings, and has held off because she was terrified of miscarrying again. Once again, she’s struck by just how lucky she is to have such a wonderful man who loves her. “Soon,” she tells him, squeezing his hand. “Maybe right after Halloween. Is that okay?”
Jon smiles at her, and it’s warmer than the morning sunlight, filling her up inside. “Course it is,” he says, ducking down to peck her cheek again. “And you know whatever happens, I’ll always be here.”
Dany smiles, leaning into Jon’s side again. That’s probably why she’s nowhere near as afraid as she’d been at first, when they found out. Why she’s even considering telling people in the first place. No matter what happens, what odds they’re faced with, that knowledge keeps her going.
“I know,” she says, eyes locked on Jon’s. And she means it, with all her heart.

I watched the season 8 finale of Game of Thrones aka the last ever episode last night and it was quite good, not quite how I expected the whole spectacle to end.
I did see a spoiler of the most important thing to happen aka who ended up on the throne on Facebook though after I had successfully scrolled past most without seeing them enough. 
Dany after going super crazy with her fire breathing dragons destroying the entire city, wanted to do more crazy things and whatnot. 
It was sad when Tyrion found Cersei and Jaime dead in each other’s arms, that was sad. Also it seems they could have survived if they were just like 10 feet away so there’s that ... 
Tyrion was not on board with her shit and I don’t blame him, she really became what she claimed to detest, a dictator who went around killing people, she claimed to cleanse the world and make it new again and good. She said before she wanted to save innocents and yet went and killed an entire city for no real reason, which also left no one there to rule in King’s Landing and a load of building work to be done again ... didn’t really think that through tbh. 
Of course, after Tyrion got locked up by her craziness, it was left up to Jon to do what had to be done. 
He was actually pretty slick about him for him, she went in for a kiss and he kissed her back and then stabbed her with his sword. We just heard it then saw her drop to the ground. The out pops Drogon who upon seeing what has happened, uses his fire breath to melt the throne, as I said at the time, knowing it corrupted her and is what truly killed her. Even the dragon could see it ... or it could be as some memes claim and she was killed by something pointy and the chair had them in spades. But no, I think Drogon was actually smarter than that and knew what was up. It was her quest for the throne and absolute power which sent her mad as it did her father and corrupted her and her once beautiful ideals. Because of course, absolute powers causes absolute corruption.
Then Drogon lovingly picked her up and flew off with her to take her to lay her to rest somewhere I assume. That was pretty sweet of him to do tbh, bless. Even after all that he still cared even if he knew she did bad. 
Then fast forward a few weeks later, Grey Worm apparently still hates Jon for killing Dany and wants something done about him and there’s a meeting with all of the heads of the houses or whatever to discuss who will take the Iron Throne.
Apparently, even being the rightful heir due to his lineage somehow Jon didn’t really even get a look in, like not even from his family. I dunno.
Tyrion proclaimed that people love a great story and who has a better story than Bran and therefore he should be the King ... the boy who never seemed interested but said “why do you think I’m here?” because obviously he knew it would happen as he saw it as he did everything. So he could’ve just cut it short with all the crazy and said “I’m the answer actually” when you think about it. As people pointed out, Jaime the Kingslayer nearly killed the future King 8 seasons ago lol.
I mean, it makes sense from that perspective I guess. Bran accepted as he knew it was his fate all along. That sneaky bastard. 
But Sansa wasn’t having it and said The North would be separate like it once was so she could be Queen there basically. She just didn’t want to rule under her younger brother, so much for like having your families back. 
King Bran et al had to discuss how they were going to bankroll and set up bringing the citadel back to life after it was so badly destroyed. Bronn was amusing as the keeper of the money.
Somehow Jon ended up back where he started at The Night’s Watch ... which I thought there was no longer any need for as weren’t they just meant to watch out for the White Walkers north of the wall? They’re all dead and gone so that would be there’s no need for that whole unit, I said it literally when watching, I was a little confused. I did think that was a bit sad that after he’d come all this way and been King of the North and was the legitimate heir to the Iron Throne that he fell back down to just being a soldier at The Night’s Watch when his watch was meant to be over. I expected him to have a much greater ending after all that, it was kind of a fall back down the Earth. It seems like it wasn’t deserved really. He should have been the King. It just didn’t do his character justice tbh. 
Brienne filled in the history books as to what happened and very quickly changed pages and shut the book when surely the ink could not have been dry which many have pointed out. Even if she checked, I don’t buy it could have been dry that quickly. It takes longer than that for that kind of ink.
Arya did what all teens did and went travelling to find out what isn’t shown on their maps, probably America lol. I bet she’ll discover that or maybe France. I’d love to see Arya’s adventures in France, if it were somewhere real or based on somewhere like that. 
Jon and The Night’s Watch either went on Watch or abandoned it as it’s no longer required ... not quite sure which they did. 
I did love seeing Jon finally reunite with Ghost properly. It was so cute when he petted him, finally! If that was CGI it was good as it looked so real, although online it says it’s a combo of CGI and footage of real wolves. Ghost looked super real then. 
Well, I can’t believe the show is over! I thought it would last a lot more seasons and apparently HBO wanted 10 seasons but I guess the writers wanna go do their Star Wars movies now ... so we got shafted from that point of view tbh. 
It also would have been better if George RR Martin had finished the books 4 years ago when they were due so they would have finished the same, although I only have the first one which I didn’t finish but apparently he’s complained about the ending being not what he wanted. It did feel like this season was quite rushed though and it could have been better than it was, also characters completely changed overnight and that was strange. It shouldn’t have happened. I know people started a petition to remake the entire season and I don’t think they’d do that after all the money they just spent on it and the CGI, it could be good to appease the fans but I doubt it’d happen. It could’ve been done better but it is what it is I guess. It could have probably been even worse. So think of it like that.
I will miss this show as it was one of my favourite shows if not my favourite show while it aired and I was always excited for it when it came on! It won’t be the same any more now it’s over!
It was a wonderful show with an outstanding cast who all embodied their characters perfectly.
Kit Harington and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau <3

Just something curious to add. The first spin off for Game of Thrones is going to cover the war of the dawn and the description for it is that "It's not the story we think we know". Let's say that GoT reveals this N+A=D in the last episode, wouldnt fans want to know more? The truth from the very very beginning? Revealing this plot twist can lead to a series of spin offs the tell the true history and go into more depth about house Dayne. It's perfect
*rubs hands together*
Now you get why I’m so excited for the prequel… since it could only help me with the Dayne one. Here’s the thing, I know they say there won’t be dragons, but I don’t believe it. Here’s why:
“Against the Unnatural is a book written by Maester Vanyon. It contains certain proofs of dragons having existed in Westeros even in the earliest of days, before Valyria’s rise to power. The work considers as far-fetched the claim that Valyrian bloodmages experimented with unnatural arts to create dragons.”
I think the Daynes and Valyrians both come from the same ancient house, the Great Empire of the Dawn. Dany has this vision in a fever dream:
“Ghosts lined the hallway, dressed in the faded raiment of kings. In their hands were swords of pale fire. They had hair of silver and hair of gold and hair of platinum white, and their eyes were opal and amethyst, tourmaline and jade. ‘Faster,’ they cried, ‘faster, faster.’ She raced, her feet melting the stone wherever they touched. ‘Faster!’ the ghosts cried as one, and she screamed and threw herself forward.”
This is a clear nod to the Great Empire of the Dawn from Yi Ti, a ‘mythical’ realm, featuring rulers such as the Opal Emperor, Amethyst Empress, Tourmaline Emperor, and Jade Emperor… whose territory extended to Asshai.
“The Valyrians tamed the dragons with magic—taught by a vanished people according to the Asshai'i—and mastered the technique of raising and training the dragons into devastating weapons of war.”
We have evidence of dragons, maybe, with fused and/or oily black stone over in Westeros. I won’t get into it here but it’s all on this page.
Another interesting link between House Stark and dragons:
“Hot springs such as the one beneath Winterfell have been shown to be heated by the furnaces of the world—the same fires that made the Fourteen Flames or the smoking mountain of Dragonstone. Yet the smallfolk of Winterfell and the winter town have been known to claim that the springs are heated by the breath of a dragon that sleeps beneath the castle. This is even more foolish than Mushroom’s claims and need not be given any consideration.”
Notice how everything remotely interesting is “debunked” by the maesters for being “foolish” and shit? lol
Winterfell and Dragonstone have another interesting feature - they’re the only castles to have gargoyles.
The term ‘gargoyle’ originates from the French word “gargouille“, around which there is a peculiar legend of a long-necked, fire-breathing dragon beast with bat-like wings who was defeated. When its head could not be burned or destroyed, La Gargouille was mounted to the walls of the church for protection or to scare off evil spirits.
As we know GRRM is an admirer of J.R.R. Tolkien, it bears mentioning that:
“Drog means Wolf in Tolkien languages. Drogon essentially means male or stone wolf.”
and: “Cognates, also meaning “wolf”, are Exilic Doldorin draug and Doriathrin drôg.”
And to further link some interesting recent dragon shit to Winterfell, we have another “absurd tale” that was debunked by the maesters (of course):
“We can dismiss Mushroom’s claim in his Testimony that the dragon Vermax left a clutch of eggs somewhere in the depths of Winterfell’s crypts, where the waters of the hot springs run close to the walls, while his rider treated with Cregan Stark at the start of the Dance of the Dragons.”
Alright. Again, we’re noticing a pattern here… right?
“Prince Jacaerys Velaryon was a dragonrider whose dragon was Vermax. Rhaenyra’s coronation as Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, she named Jacaerys Prince of Dragonstone and heir to the Iron Throne. Mushroom also states Jacaerys fell in love with Cregan’s half-sister, Sara Snow, and married her in secret, although Gyldayn discounts the fool’s claim.”
See what’s going on here? Maybe someone out there doesn’t.
Another dark-haired heir to the Iron Throne who possesses a mixture of Targaryen blood (and likely Strong blood) marries a bastard Stark girl in secret.
And yeah, I get it. All of these things might mean fuck-all and maybe the maesters are right but I don’t believe them for a second. Why? Sam says it pretty well:
“The First Men only left us runes on rocks, so everything we think we know about the Age of Heroes and the Dawn Age and the Long Night comes from accounts set down by septons thousands of years later. There are archmaesters at the Citadel who question all of it. Those old histories are full of kings who reigned for hundreds of years, and knights riding around a thousand years before there were knights.”
This is why I’m excited about the Long Night prequel. We might see Starks riding dragons. We might see Daynes, we might see the Bloodstone Emperor, the Amethyst Empress, the first Long Night caused by the blood betrayal between brother and sister… the formation of House Dayne and Starfall - which by the way, if you’re going to follow a shooting star to where it falls, wouldn’t it be easiest on dragonback? 🤔

GOT 8x03 Thoughts. Beware spoilers!
That episode had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Actually migrated from the couch to the coffee table thats how glued to the screen I was lol.
Love, love LOVE my Queens Lyanna and Arya doing their damn thing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Loved my babies Brienne and Jaime having each others backs the whole time and keeping their son Pod close. The Hound snapping to attention once he realised Arya was in danger was great. The Unsullied protecting the retreat with their usual precision was amazing as well.
Mad props of course to those we lost who went down heroes. Most proud of Theon.
Tumblr media
BUT
That plan was not the greatest. They let the Dothraki just charge out there in the dark? Ghost too? Flaming swords not withstanding, they went headfirst into a wall of the dead. That’s not the kind of enemy you fight head on. I think multiple trenches that the dead could fall into and could be lit on fire may have helped. Some Kingdom of Heaven or Spartacus battle tactics. Hell even Narnia Prince Caspian did that. Keep the enemy as far away from you as possible.
Plus this isn't the kind of battle to have cannon fodder. Your dead literally become their dead.
And why were Dany and Jon flying around aimlessly for so long? At one point Dany and Jon actually flew into each other. At least Jon got wise and actually ‘parked’ the dragon to get a better visual of where the Night King might be. They had Dany just blowing around on the breeze all accidental like. 
Like okay, she couldn’t see the trench to light it (and Melisandre really came through on that one). But once the trench was lit and she had visual why was she (and Jon) burning the army of the dead from the back?? Wouldn’t it be more helpful to get rid of the Wights closer to Winterfell and widen the gap between the armies???
Honestly I would have been happier with some blind aiming. I thought having dragons on the side meant cutting the dead army’s numbers consistently. Is dragon fire finite? Is that it? Even when Drogon was being overwhelmed by the Wights on the ground he didn’t use dragon fire and Dany didn’t try to command him to. That just felt like a cheap way to get her thrown off so we could have Jorah rescue her.
And I really wanted to see a pay off mid-battle of Jon being revealed as Aegon Targaryen. I thought he was gonna stand up to the Ice Dragon and just take those blue flames like a champ and kill it. Something. But nah. He couldn’t even get through the fighting to get to Bran (who checked out in the middle of it all and did seven knows what). 
I don’t know how I feel about the final boss fight looking like its going to be versus Cersei. I still have a ton of questions about the Night King and I wanted more of him in this fight. Dude was seriously badass without ever saying a word.
Tumblr media
I will hold out hope that the writers can somehow provide answers and tie up all loose-ends in the last 3 episodes.
There were some really great moments though. Good episode overall.

GOT s8e5 quick reactions [SPOILERS]
SPOILER WARNING.
I had several predictions for this episode, but only two came true and they were quite obvious to everyone-- Varys’ death by dragon fire and Dany turning batshit insane and burning King’s Landing to the ground.
Everyone, including me, expected Varys to die this episode. I got a bit sad, but I’m at least happy with how he was executed. Tyrion was truthful to him, and Varys bade goodbye as an old friend. The whole sequence was shot beautifully, especially with Drogon appearing out from the darkness. I’m still unsure about the sincerity of his intentions (being a king/queenmaker “for the good of the realm”), but I’m ok with it left unanswered. Goodbye, Varys. I’ll rewatch the whole series soon so I’m looking forward to seeing you again.
I kinda wonder why he took out his rings, though. Is this like taking off your glasses and shoes when leaping from a building?
Tyrion letting Jaime free to save Cersei was frustrating to watch. I get he’s always loved his niece and nephews but goddamnit this is Cersei. I liked his farewell to Jaime, though, and I admit I teared up at that. 
After zombie Viserion’s attack on the Wall last season, I’ve been waiting to see Dany’s two other dragons showcase that same speed. This episode finally fucking delivered. I thought they’d never show it. It’s a bit weird that not one spear got Drogon, but I guess you can chalk it up to Drogon being so fast and the scorpions being so heavy to maneuver that despite their numbers, they can’t hit Drogon,
I was hoping for Yara to face off with Euron’s fleet. There’s just no other proper way for Euron to die or get defeated. I guess it’s budget restrictions that defeated Euron. Speaking of dead Euron, what the fuck was the point of him having a face-off with Jaime. That was lame and it felt fucking empty. Claims he killed Jaime Lannister but rubble killed him first. Also, what’s the glory in killing a handicapped person. They should’ve just let Euron get burned with his fleet as a captain should. Jaime’s injuries weren’t significant for anything anyway, because as i’ve mentioned, he died when the whole building collapsed,
I really like the build up of Cersei’s confidence in winning the fight vs Dany. Hell, I was kinda stressing last episode because how tf does Dany expect to win vs the Iron Fleet, all those scorpions, the Golden Company, with the people of King’s Landing being basically held hostage. And then everything went tits up in a matter of seconds LOL. This is why you just wave a damn flag at the sight of a damn dragon.
Side note, I like how it’s Dany this time who “opened the gate” for her army.
I have expected Dany to go a bit mad, because if I lost both my doggos and my best friend was killed, I’d burn that castle to the ground. I expected Dany to raze the Red Keep, civilians be damned. HOWEVER, I didn’t expect her to go full batshit INSANE and burn the WHOLE GODDAMN KING’S LANDING. That’s fucking too much girl you need the largest snickers bar or kitkat bar in the world. This move greatly shocked me, and it was so damn terrifying. Battle of the Bastards and Hardhome showed that war is insane and horrible, but this. This is giving me ptsd on the same level as joan of arc and all the other war movies I’ve seen gave me. It’s horrible enough that her army, including the fucking northmen, are killing and raping civilians. Now the “queen” herself is burning everyone and everything down. jfc.
There is no going back now. She will definitely die 1000%.
Side note I really like that both Jon and Arya are wearing the classic Stark leader hairstyle.
When Arya went with the Hound in the crumbling Red Keep, I was so afraid she’d die. But I’m glad Sandor gave her the “revenge will consume you” speech and Arya actually listened. I definitely don’t want Arya to die because of a falling rock fuck that.
Dead Qyburn ok
The Jaime-Cersei ending kinda left a bad taste in ma mouth. We went all through Jaime’s redemption arc only for him to be unable to let go of such a toxic person. I was hoping and praying he kills Cersei to stop her insanity but he just fucking went and attempted to save her and fucking hell. At least they died together as they always said they would. Pretty shitty that they got killed by rubble. Cersei didn’t get to pay for what she did to the damn Starks, among others.
That aside, I liked how we saw her fearful. I actually felt a bit sorry for her after she decides to escape wtih Qyburn. She’s a horrible damn person, but she’s not always that. Goodbye, great villain. Until the end you thought you were so smart. smh.
So. Cleganebowl. I wasn’t really into the CB hype, though for a moment I got worried that Sandor will get his head crushed and the Mountain will live. How tf do you kill the Mountain? Fire? Anyway, I’m not mad at how Sandor died. Could have been worse. I’m just glad he got to spend some time with Arya and he got a bit of a reunion with Sansa, even though the rape thing was a dick move. RIP Sandor.
The ending bit with Arya made me so tensed. I thought she was going to die suddenly, or she’s already dead and it’s just her ghost heading to that deus ex horse. Nothing bathed in that much light is “safe” in GOT. Buuuuut I guess this is one fan favorite that you can’t kill. At least, not yet. I’m relieved she didn’t die tho.
With Jon--  the other hero of GOT and Dany’s rival to the throne-- and Arya seeing all the carnage of Dany’s attack on a city that has rang its bells as a sign of giving up, there’s no way not one of them is going to execute Dany.
If Dany doesn’t die at the end of this series, it’s a great fucking TV sin. Thousands of innocents died. Eye for an eye, sure. Kill Cersei’s “dragon” (baby) and her best friend (sure, Jaime). But burning all those people who had nothing to do with your fight? Girl you’re crazy and you must be stopped.
It’s tragic, but it’s a pretty good end for a character in the world of Game of Thrones.

For the physical descriptions in the books also Harrold and book!Joffrey.Best looking female: CERSEI!Who you’re crushing on (if any): Jaime and Theon, I think. Favourite cast moment: I loved Emilia’s last video and I will always love Lena interview with Kimmel. And also the Rolling Stones photoshoot of Lena, Emilia, Alfie and Kit. Favourite transportation: Horses, I love horse riding. Most beautiful scene (scenery/shot wise): Jaime kisses Cersei after that she tells him she’s pregnant! I like others too but this is my favourite one. In the books, when Theon and Jeyne run from Winterfell. (I should read what it’s writen in the brackets, lol. Viseryon destoying the Wall)Unanswered question/continuity issue/plot error that bugs you: if Jon is a real targaryen, why did he burnt his hand when he killed the wight? (I mean I know how Viserys die but it was the exception very likely so… I’ll always be confused about that)Best promo: the one with the sigils, I loved it.At what point did you fall in love with this show/book: I’ve binge-watched the series and once I have finished it I needed the books so I guess I fall in love with it during the first season.

Eastwatch Random thoughts
It was heart-breaking to see Tyrion walk through the burnt field of fire. I’ve never seen him look so sad and regretful before. 
I hated to see Dickon Tarly being burnt to a crisp. I think there was a reason why they made him volunteer to die. It was heart-breaking. I shall never ever root for D to sit on any throne leave alone the iron one. 
Jon petting DROGON (with incest fur on) - Yes, thank you we know he’s got Targaryen Blood. Jon thinking beautiful is not the word to use for dragons - Yes, thank you!! We know he’ll always be a stark. Did anyone else see the similarity with the white walkers ice eyes and Drogon’s fire eyes or is it just me???? And yes, thank you D&D. D still doesn’t know that Jon was resurrected. And Jon doesn’t know what D meant when she said she has fewer enemies. 
D is making serious heart eyes at JON!! JON however, well if he is, I can’t really see it. LIKE AT ALL. Jorah and Tyrion seem to have picked up on D catching feelings for the King in the north. 
I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE THAT DAVOS MADE THAT ROWING JOKE WITH GENDRY. Lmao X forever!!!
And yes the Baratheon that was promised is BACK with a bloody war hammer no less and is rearing to go. (Because of all the lack of action and screen time, I’m sure)
JON tells D, he doesn’t need her permission to leave. He is a king. (YOU ARE THE KING, JON. JUST WAIT FOR THE NEXT FREAKING SEASON) I can see why D is falling for JON. He’s not falling all over her like she is usually used to. Jon has more chemistry with Drogon than his mother in this episode. 
Varys is beginning to walk on the path of being burnt alive by his queen. Tyrion is saying “She’s not her father” a little to often, out loud. Looks like he’s trying to convince himself that he didn’t make the wrong choice.
Someone please ask BRONN to get out of the bloody Capital!!
JORAH, who is in love with D looks back at her. King in da norf DOESNT!! If you tell me this wasn’t to contrast the feelings of the two men, I won’t believe you. LOL!! (I do believe most things I can see logic in, so tell me if you disagree with me)
I love the new teleportation system westeros is using!!
Where the F**K is Theon Greyjoy??
What the F**K is D doing to free GRAYWORM and the Unsullied? 
She’s making heart eyes and worrying about the safety the KING IN THE NORTH when she should be rescuing HER soldiers from casterly rock!! No wonder we didn’t see Missandei this episode. I have a feeling that she’s going to ask for that boat soon.
ARYA and SANSA are not going to really really fight. Which means Starkbowl is going to happen in the next episode and die out forever in the finale. 
SANSA mentioning GHOST was lovely!!
TORMUND ASKING FOR BRIENNE MADE ME SCREAM!! LOL
Anyway ....It was a comsi comsa episode. I hope the next one is better.

My dog is named after the greatest character in GoT history
BRO.DIE. BRODIE. BROOOODIE!
I’m still not recovered. Will I ever recover? God I hope not.
Big call, especially cos there are 3 more episodes to go, but this was the best episode in all of Game of Thrones - terrible lighting and all!
We start with a gorgeous long one take shot that pans and slides with the cast as they prep for battle IN COMPLETE SILENCE. The tension! The camera choreo to get that shot done in one take! What a beginning!!
Arya tells Sansa to go to the Crypt cos she can’t fight and she’s useless. She gives her a dagger, and Sansa says she doesn’t know how to use it, and in a moment that legit made me think Arya would die this ep (CIRCLE MOMENT) she tells her to “Stick them with the pointy end”. SOB. 
Then, out of the darkness, Melisandre rides forward. Jorah is like, Bitch What? And then Mel LIGHTS THE DOTHRAKI SWORDS ON FIRE! But wait, is this hope I feel? Don’t get used to it Jords, because then J-Dawg, Ghost and the Dothraki charge towards the army of the dead. We just see their flaming swords in the darkness and it’s badass AF but then... slowly... one by one... their swords go out COS THE ARMY OF THE DEAD KILLED ALL THE DOTHRAKI. No one survives the Dothraki, so like, GoT has destroyed all hope we had for a fleeting second there.
J-Dawg rides back injured but alive and we breathe a sigh of relief. 
The AOD charge forward and like totally overrun the Unsullied and we have the first of like 40 moments in this ep where we think Greyworm is gonna die and can’t take the love of his life Missandei to Naath after they survive. (It’s ok. He’s alive!)
Cue badly lit chaos and a lot of people dying. First “real” death of this season is when a Wight attacks Sam and he falls to the ground but then Edd saves him and while Edd is like “SAM YOU LAZY GIT GET UP” he gets a sword in the back of his head and he dies. I’d like it on the record that I predicted he would die, thank you very much. 
Moving on, the fight is too much for our Northmen so they retreat into the castle. Dany is supposed to light the trench with Dragon fire but she and Jonny boy are riding dragons in the clouds and can’t see.
So Mel walks VERY SLOWLY CONSIDERING THE VERY REAL AND IMMEDIATE DANGER THEY’RE ALL IN and she starts chanting her magic language and lights the trench on fire. 
For a moment we think we’re safe, but then the AOD starts throwing themselves into the fire to put it out and let other AOD walk over their dead x 2 bodies and start climbing the castle walls. DRAMA.
Jon + Dany + Night King are having a dragon fight in the clouds that is very hard to follow cos all the dragons look black in the darkness and I dunno who’s who. 
In the Crypt, Tyrion and Sansa have a MOMENT (do I sense a real *spark* between them?!) where she says he was the best husband she had (not hard TBH). 
Back up stairs and our faves are battling for their lives now that the AOD have climbed the wall. Brienne and Jaime are fighting side by side. SYMBOLISM. They both have swords forged from Ned Stark’s sword Ice. So like, they are two halves of a whole. LOVE. 
Pod is fighting near Tormund and both being badass. Gendry is out there looking hot and probably feeling really smug cos he banged Arya. Arya is legit KILLING IT with her fancy spear thing and honestly looks like this is just a warm up for her. 
Lilttle Lyanna is fighting for her life, and truly proving her claim that one warrior from Bear Island is worth 10 men. Cos she charges A GIANT who then picks her up and crushes her ribs. But what does Lyanna do? SHE STABS HIM IN THE EYE WITH DRAGON GLASS AND HE DIES. RIP Lyanna you angel. I miss you. Brodie this was the start of arms above head panicked Jords just FYI. I cried for Lyanna.
Back to fighting, and Arya is being such a badass that when The Hound (who is legit terrified) see’s her being chased by the AOD he turns into Super Dad and charges after her to save her. Arya is hiding in the library where the AOD are being very respectful of the Quiet rule. Her blood drops are super loud though so they find her and chase her. Hound and Beric find her and protect her, and we learn the reason the Lord of Light saved him - his purpose was to protect Arya. RIP Beric you badass.
Mel is for some reason inside a random room in the castle and she reminds Arya that she predicted she would kill brown eyes, green eyes (FORESHADOWING THAT SHE’S GONNA KILL CERSEI?!) and blue eyes. I’m so thrown that I didn’t realise then that Arya was gonna kill the night king cos like, DUH. She then asks Arya “What do we say to the God of death” and Arya responds “NOT TODAY” ohhhhhh S1 throwback. I’m crying again.
Back to the dragon fight and Jon and Night King are battling it out and WW Viserion bites Rhaegals neck so bad he crashes to the ground. Night King falls off his Dragon and Dany swoops after him and tries to kill him by Dragon Fire. LOL Dany you should have know that wasn’t gonna work.
Jon starts to charge the NK and then NK does his arm raise throwing back to the battle of Hardhome, and all the dead rise again. INCLUDING THE BODIES IN THE CRYPT. Everyone down there is running and screaming and Tyrion/Sansa hide behind her Dad’s crypt (side note - did Nedd not raise cos he was headless??). They have ANOTHER moment when Tyrion kisses her hand and they run off together to join their friends and hope for someone to save them.
Jon charges the NK but doesn’t get to him in time and all the new AOD attack him. Dany comes back with Drogon and kills them all with fire. Jon runs off to find and save Bran, but the AOD have climbed on Drogons back and he has to fly off and shake them off in the sky. Dany is stuck on the ground surrounded by the AOD with no weapons and TBH, no real fighting skills.
Her lover J-Dawg runs in just in time to fight for her and save her. Dany picks up an abandoned sword and fights too. Jorah does all the real work though. He keeps getting hurt but he doesn’t stop cos his love for Dany fuels him on.
In the Godswood, Bran is sitting there DOING SHIT ALL while Theon is killing all the AOD soldiers. They stop when the NK arrives, and he does this super slow walk over. Bran tells Theon he’s a good man, and I cried a lot. Theon knows he’s gonna die but instead of running away from his fears, he runs to them and charges at the NK with a spear. He dies, but it’s brave and poetic. The NK then just stares at Bran for approx. 500 years.
Jon is playing hide and seek with WW Viserion and his fire, Dany and J-Dawg are fighting and losing, all our faves are still alive but nearly about to lose. NK reaches for his sword to kill Bran, and OUT OF NO WHERE OUR GODDESS AND SAVIOUR ARYA MOTHERFUCKING STARK JUMPS OUT OF NOWHERE AND ATTACKS THE NIGHT KING. YASSSSS! He notices and spins around and catches her, but she drops her dagger to the other hand and stabs him in the belly. She’s done this move before FYi - when she was sparring with Brienne in S7. THE NIGHT KING IS DEFEATED AND IT’S OFFICIAL... MY DOG HAS THE BEST NAMESAKE EVER! GO ARYA!
All the AOD die again, and the day is saved! 
Some other things happen - Mel takes off her magic necklace and turns old again and dies, Jorah succumbs to his injuries and dies in Dany’s arms while she sobs over his body (CALLED IT. At least he died a Hero. Still sad.), and Jon looks triumphant even though he did shit all this whole battle. I love Jonny Boy but like, what did he even do besides fly a dragon and play hide and seek with another Dragon???
Now we need to go kill Cersei for 3 episodes.
WINTER CAME AND WINTER WAS DEFEATED BY ARYA STARK OUR QUEEN AND ICON. BOW DOWN BITCHES.
This episode was basically one long love letter to Arya and I’m not mad about it.
x Jords

it must be puppy love | part 2 | teaser
Distracted by work and fandom wank yesterday (don’t slide into my DMs with your BS. 😑) so I didn’t work on this how I wanted. As apologies for not getting it up today like I wanted I will offer a teaser and cross fingers I can get it done by Friday. Enjoy!
That was about the extent of it, he thought, reflecting on that particular morning. It was only a few days ago. He was so fucking confused. He brooded about it the entire way to the vet clinic, parking behind her car, and going up and inside. One of the vet techs-- every one of them wore red scrubs, so weird-- led him to the exam room, where Drogon was resting on the floor, poking at the crate where the pups wiggled around, squealing in displeasure that they’'d been taken from their mother.
Ghost rushed immediately to his children, Jon nodding to Dany, who was scrolling on her phone. "Hey," he greeted, unclipping Ghost's lead.
She smiled briefly; she had a very nice smile, he'd been remiss to tell her. "Hey. Oh look at that, Ghost you've got a new accessory."
"Passed his trials this morning."
"Amazing," she murmured, furrowing her brow as Ghost began digging at a divot in the tile. She darted a glance to him, silently questioning. He shrugged; he could pass the K-9 trials, didn't mean he had to be fully smart elsewhere. She smiled a little wider, scratching Ghost's ears. "Good boy. Check on your babies."
Drogon wagged her tail, looking up when he approached her. He knelt to her level, ruffling her ears and pressing a kiss to her nose. She was relatively cute, when you studied her long enough. He still gave Dany shit for having an ugly dog though. "How're you girl? Hmm? Pups keeping you up?" He turned to hte crate, reaching in and collecting the one closest, the little girl, whose fur had begun growing in and was now about the same snowy white as her father. She nuzzled into his chest, squeaking, litlte paws scrabbling at him.
He rubbed between her ears, lifting his gaze to meet Dany, who was still attending to Ghost. He cleared his throat, shrugging, pretending like he hadn't already been thinking about this. "You know...they're getting bigger and stuff and...we need to think about...are we gonna' keep them or...sell..."
Even he didn't feel good about the last word. He was relieved when Dany jerked her head up, horrified. "Sell them? Fuck no! You might have a heart of ice, but I actually care, these are Drogon's babies and I will not...”
"Whoa, chill out Dragon Queen." He made a 'time out' motion with his hands, not at all expecting that to stop her, which it did not. He sighed, while Dany ranted another moment about how he was just "dumping" the children because he couldn't be bothered, and finally he chose drastic action.
He swooped in and kissed her.
It had the desired effect. She stopped talking, her words catching in the back of her throat, mouth parted in surprise. He took the opportunity to lightly cup the back of her head, at an awkward angle as she was looking up from her seated position and he was bending over, the dogs and crate between them, and a wiggling pup against his chest. He was surprised himself, mostly by how gentle it was. He didn't intend it, it just...happened.
She reached up, her hand curling around his forearm, fingers digging into the thick fatigues material, and she returned the kiss, lips soft under his. He broke away first, eyes wide on hers, and saw her expression likely mirrored his, violet irises wide around her dilated pupil, her pink lips swollen, open slightly. She darted her tongue to wet them, her hand still around his arm. He dropped his from her head, lightly stroking over one of her braids across her shoulder and drifted away.
The room was quiet; the pups squealed and Drogon huffed a sigh, moving into a more comfortable position. Ghost panted, whipping his head between them both. He swallowed hard, murmuring. "No one's selling the puppies."
It threw her off, her throat bobbing, a muscle in her jaw ticking when she swallowed. "Alright," she rasped. She dropped her hand from his arm, like she'd been burned, and fisted her fingers against her thighs. Coughing, she composed herself, and he took the moment to do the same, also thrown off, not just by his initial reaction to bloody fucking kiss her, but the way hed done so. And even the way she reacted.
Like what the fuck Snow? They had no label on whatever this was, didn't want to even think about it, and he was not interested. He'd been married for five miserable bloody awful years, the only thing he'd come to realize out of that situation was that he never wanted to feel like that again and that meant no bloody relationships.
Ghost, the stupid mutt, did not seem to understand that they were in this together, and had gone and started something with the dog next door, and now it seemed he was in the same situation. Even if Drogon seemed a bit more reluctant, despite Ghost's best efforts. He was now sitting right beside her, his big fluffy butt sitting on her back legs, but Drogon didn't mind.
Dany's eye twitched, almost imperceptible. She cleared her throat and reached into her tote bag, removing a very "lawyerly" black leather portfolio. She flicked it open and took out a red pen with dragons engraved in it, uncapped it with her teeth, and began to scrawl atop a yellow legal pad. He scowled. "You suing me?"
"No," she snapped. She set the pen cap down and primly rested the notepad on her knee, legs crossed. She spoke as she wrote. "In the matter of Ghost Snow and Drogon Targaryen....custody arrangements for...." She glanced at the pups, hte one still in his arms and the other who had wiggled out of the crate and straight to Drogon, suckling eagerly. She squinted. "Well they need names, but for now we will refer to them as Child A and Child B."
He drolled, "How sentimental." What on earth was she doing? He said nothing, his heart skipping behind his ribs.
Dany continued, writing quickly. "Custody agreement shall commence upon the date of first weaning, after which Child A and Child B are no longer fully dependent on mother, Drogon Targaryen, for sustenance."
"You are so clinical, my gods."
"I am being thorough," she said, but there was no heat behind it. She lifted her eyebrows, smirking at him. "Do you want them every other day or week or what?"
He looked at Ghost, who cocked his head, tongue out at the side of his open mouth. "I think Ghost would like to see his children as much as physically possible." He furrowed his eyebrows, thinking, an idea forming. He nodded to her legal pad. "Keep working on that, but I have an idea."
"Dangerous."

warm me up | a Jonerys drabble
Lol I said I would do a drabble after seeing the adorable GIF yesterday of Emilia jumping on set to stay warm. So here it is! Enjoy!
It was so bloody freezing, Dany was sure her feet had turned to blocks of ice in the night. She tried to huddle under the furs, finding no source of warmth to assist her, and despite her normally warm base temperature, she was unable to get comfortable. The bed was also empty, which she also did not like. She was often the one left behind but usually he made enough noise as he got up to go do training in the yard or see to other matters he liked to get a head start on, that he would wake her up, or he'd stir her enough with a kiss to her head and whisper his love before departing.
This time she must have been so exhausted from the welcome feast the night before that she had slept straight through any attempt of his to notify her of his absence. No matter, she thought, climbing out of the bed, and whimpering when her feet hit the stone floor. The thin rugs and carpets that coated the bedchamber were not enough and even if there were hot springs beneath Winterfell piping water through the stone, she did not feel it.
"Lies," she muttered, shuffling to a trunk and throwing it open. She lifted her head, silver braids falling in her vision, and saw glowing red eyes peering at her through the fringe. "Hello Ghost, good morning."
Ghost said nothing, but padded to her, nosing her thigh. His warmth permeated the furs and she wondered where he'd been that he hadn't been in bed with her. "On patrol?" she asked and he flared his nostrils and lowered his head, an answer of 'yes.' "Well thank you for your service, but I am bloody cold. Where is your other half?"
He went to the door and sat. She threw off the furs, yelped at the cold shock of air and stared at the fire, which had been stoked and was blazing, but not enough for her tastes. The sound alerted Missandei, who poked her head in from the adjacent room. "Your Grace?" she asked. "Are you well?"
"Fine, just cold. Go back to sleep Missandei, I can dress fine this morning."
Missandei entered, ignoring her, and shivered, rubbing her upper arms. "It is abnormally cold, Yoru Grace, but I heard one of the Northmen saying this is a warm winter."
The winters and summers were not as long as they had once been, since the defeat of the Night King, but came and went for only a couple years at a time. She scoffed. "It feels colder than that first one."
"My sentiments as well, Your Grace. Can I help you?" Missandei hurried to help her dress, even if she didn't need the help. She had on woolen leggings, a thick wool underdress, an overcoat lined with dove gray fur, and wrapped a scarf around her neck. Her boots were fur lined and she had on thick socks. Socks she'd knitted herself, proudly she might add, and then her favorite lined gloves that her husband had gifted her for a nameday present. They had embroidery of dragons on them and she treasured them.
They exited the chamber, Ghost with them, and went to the Great Hall, where she found she was not hungry despite the food layout before her, and with a curt nod to the Wardeness of the North-- they were not close by any means-- she swiped a piece of bread, smeared on some jam, and nibbled it, leaving to find her husband, since he was not in the Hall.
Nor was he in the yard, which was also rather strange. "Have you seen the King?" Missandei asked Grey Worm, who appeared silently beside them near the gate.
"He left on Rhaegal, Your Grace," Grey answered in Valyrian. He frowned, arms behind his back. "He did not request a guard."
"No doubt he's doin something he knows I will not like," she muttered, huffing away from them. She waved her hand. "I will just go up on Drogon."
"Your Grace," Grey began, but Dany paid him no mind. He knew better than to argue with her. If she was atop Drogon, she was safe. They did what they could, walking her to his nest atop a nearby hill, where Viserion was still sleeping. The gold and cream yawned, stretching out his wings, and peered blearily at her while Drogon got to his feet and lowered a wing.
She called to Viserion in Valyrian. "Where did your brother go?"
Viserion yawned, burping out some smoke and sulfur, stretching more and took off. Drogon screeched, beating his wings, lifting straight up, and she waved at the guards and Missandei below. Leaning over her son, she rested her cheek to his warm scales, savoring the feeling. She murmured, lightly stroking him as he took her higher into the frozen clouds, mist spraying her face when he turned into them, leading her to the mountains that circled Winterfell to the north. "You’re so warm, hmm...I wish we could bring you into the castle."
Drogon called out, flying lower, and she leaned to see that Rhaegal was circled up in a clearing of trees. He looked up and shrieked, excited, and tapped his feet on the snowy ground. She waited for Drogon to land beside his brother, cuffing him with his outstretched wing. They began to squabble, snapping at each other, Viserion joining to break it up. She left them alone, and trudged into the forest, following the footsteps that were the same size and shape of her husband's boots.
And when she broke through the path and saw a pile of furs and leather, a set of boots propped to the tree, and Longclaw there, she momentarily panicked, eyes widening, spinning around. "Jon? Jon!"
There was a large black pond, snow on the edges, mist rising from it as the water was warmer than the air around it. She spun to the pond, gaping. "No...no..." she mumbled, hands fisting at her sides. "Jon!"
In the center of the pond, he surfaced, tossing his wet hair back, and blinked a few times, scrubbing his face with his palms. He tread the water, looking over at her, and laughed. "Dany! What are you doing here?"
"I couldn't find you and I was freezing!" She began to bounce in place, to keep her blood moving, still warm from Drogon’s scales. She was horrified as he ducked under again, a quick white blur in the dark water, the barest peek at a bare arse and his feet kicking up as he disappeared. She was horrified. "You are mad! Get out of there before you freeze to death!”
He emerged closer to the shore; this time she could see that he was indeed bare as his name day. "It's not that cold, it's actually quite refreshing." He pushed his hair back again, knotting a band that was on his wrist around it, tying it back. He grinned again, his gray eyes twinkling, water crystalline on his face, dropping from his beard into the water. He beckoned her. "Come on in. I’m serious, it’s not that cold."
"What the fuck?" she shrieked. He had lost all sanity. She kept jumping, shaking out her hands, her curls bouncing on her shoulders. "It's so cold! I was frozen in bed this morning without you and here you are swimming in the middle of bloody winter! You have truly lost your mind Jon Snow!"
He laughed, his smile taking up his face, crinkling his eyes. A sight so rare, only a small number had ever borne witness to it. He shrugged. "What can I say? I'm a child of the North. This is good for your heart."
"Because you're killing it trying to stay warm!"
"Come on in."
"No bloody way!"
"It's really not that bad, honest." He splashed some water up on his cheeks. "The Northern ladies claim it is good for their skin. They heat it and then put snow on their faces. Says it makes it as soft as a baby's arse."
"My skin is fine."
"Oh I know and so is your arse."
Her mouth dropped and she laughed, shocked and amused. "Jon Snow! What has happened to you?" He was so jovial, she forgot sometimes how dour he could get when he was away from the North for so long. It rejuvenated him. She noted they would need to come back more often if he was this happy to be back. Even though he could only handle it for so long before his cousin and the rest of theNortherners wore on him, then he was one of the first people packing up to go back to King's Landing.
He swam closer and she dropped her gaze to peek at him through the clear water, licking her lips at what she saw. He flicked his fingers at her and this time she got some of the water on her face, sputtering. She patted it and then froze, frowning. "Huh?"
Still smiling, Jon shifted in the water, beckoning her. "I told you, it's fine."
"But..." She knelt and even with her thick clothing, she felt snow seep into her leggings, and reached for the water. Plucking off a glove, her fingers cramped momentarily in the cold, and when she hit the water, felt absolute pleasure, heat radiating up and into her skin. She slammed her eyes closed and moaned softly. "Oh gods."
Within seconds, she had stripped and with a squeal, leaped into the hot spring, allowing it to penetrate her senses, sinking down to the bottom for a moment, weightless, and with an exhale of air through her nostrils, shot back to the surface, emerging beside him, laughing like a loon. "Oh my gods! That's so good! Fuck, it's cold." She tried to go back under again, but he stopped her, pulling her close.
Their bodies slicked together and his feet churned water, kicking them to the center, away from the snowy embankment. She felt warmer now, her face flushed, the steam rising up to encircle them. "I came here as a kid sometimes," he said, by way of explanation. He grinned. "Winterfell has hot springs, not as good as Dragonstone's, and there's a small one in the godswood, but this was my favorite."
"And you never told me about it."
"Honestly, it wasn't at the top of my mind but this winter is pretty cold and I was flying on Rhaegal this morning to stretch his wings and caught sight of it. Thought I'd see if it was still the same as when I was a kid." He shrugged, rubbing his lips briefly over hers, whispering. "I was goin to come wake you."
She purred. "You should have done that anyway."
"My apologies, Your Grace."
It was nice, she thought, eyes fluttering shut, flush against him. She sighed. "Hmm....finally warm."
"And no one can find us."
They shared a sweet kiss, spinning in circles, with him swimming her around for a few minutes, giggling as he tried to tickle her under the water. They splashed like children, and she pressed her face into his neck, eyes shut, allowing him to carry her around, and finally, bloody finally, felt warm. "We can stay a thousand years," she whispered, nipping on his earlobe.
He kissed the shell of her ear, brushing her hair from her face. "We'd be...very wrinkled."
She giggled and kissed him, murmuring into his mouth, body sliding suggestively against his. “I’m cold, so keep your queen warm.”
He growled, lifting his hips to hers, proving that indeed the water was not cold at all. “With pleasure.”

boo in the night | fic teaser
It’s almost here the best day of the year….HALLOWEEN! 🎃 👻 🦇 Here’s a tease for my fluffy Halloween fic. I hope to have an angsty one done in time but doubt it lol. Moodboard by the always amazing @youwerenevermine !
"Oi, come on my love, we're almost home, you can play there."
Drogon hissed, his tail straight in the air, lowering himself down and then going completely flat. Ears back, nose wrinkling up, he released a low, rumbling growl, and before she had a chance to kneel to pick him up, he jerked hard on the leash, snapping it from her hands, taking off to the old, decrepit house.
"Drogon!" she shrieked, her cat rather fast for one so bulky, his red leash whipping up when he bolted to whatever had drawn his hunting skills out. She smacked Jon. "Come on!"
"Seven hells!"
She ignored Jon, who was shouting for her to come back, that Drogon would return to the house soon enough. He didn't want to go into the house, too scared, she thought. She didn't care, she had to get her baby back. The house had sagging porch stairs, sunken roof, and broken windows. It was dangerous, even for Drogon, and she didn't want him getting hurt or falling into a hole and not being able to get out.
Oh gods, what if he fell in a hole and couldn't get out, she fretted, running around the side of the house, trying to find a way inside. She ran up the back stairs, spotting a window that had a broken board. She wrenched it free, splinters in her hands, and was about to crawl in when Jon appeared around the corner. "Dany, for the love of the Old Gods!"
"I don't believe in those gods, get me my baby!"
As though on cue, because the house wasn't creepy enough, the wind picked up, howling through the empty rooms. She spotted one of the rooms that must have been a dining room, with broken furniture and torn wallpaper, water stains on the ceiling. Or blood, the macabre part of her thought. She was oddly excited about crawling into a murder house, which probably said more about her than she cared to know.
The big bad wolfish detective behind her pulled on her sweatshirt. "Get back here you are not going in there, it's trespassing and dangerous and..."
A high-pitched, piercing sound broke through the wind, almost like nails on a chalkboard. She shrieked, her adrenaline racing, and fell backwards against Jon, who made a sound similar to hers, but higher-pitched. He almost dropped her, trying to run away, and when she moved again to see what could be making that noise, Drogon came running around the corner of the house.
She swept him up into her arms, taking off and running to their house, Jon leading the way. At the edge of their yard, she glanced back at the haunted house, and frowned, pretty sure she saw a flash of white slip between a broken porch railing. Her throat constricted, skin clammy. "There's no such thing as ghosts," she whispered to herself.
Jon tugged her to the house, his hands sweaty, breath gulping. He was paler than normal, giving the appearance that <he had turned into a ghost. "We are never going back there again, that place is haunted!"
Drogon howled in her arms, tail flicking, yellow eyes intense on the house.
"Sure," she lied between her teeth, stepping backwards into their house. "Won't go back there."
