Have you read (all) the books? Have you seen the show? Do you have any book vs. show preferences?
Yes and yes. I generally prefer the books to the show, especially when it comes to how I picture the characters and differences in their characterizations. For example, Stannis charging into battle while yelling and waving a sword? No way.

What kind of gift can you make?

Fic and/or fanart? Fic only

Preferred characters: Stannis, all the Baratheons, Samwell Tarly, Davos Seaworth, Jon Snow, the Tyrells, the Martells, and I've recently decided that Jacelyn Bywater is a cool dude.
and pairings: Stannis/Davos, Stannis/Selyse, Stannis/Ned Stark (HEY OH!); Sam/Gilly, Sam/Jon, Sam/Alleras; Renly/Loras; Oberyn/Willas, Willas/Sansa; Littlefinger/monetary inflation

Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: I really don't care for the Cleganes, and I have zero headcanon or imagination regarding the Ironfolk.

What kind of genres can you write/what kind of pictures can you draw? ( ... )

[1] Board Games with Baratheons: Robert has no inside voice, Stannis won't stop quoting the rule book, and Renly finds everything hysterical.

I assume board games, card games, and "parlor" games exist in Westeros, or you can choose to do a modern AU if you wish.

[2] Uncle Stannis and Nephew Gendry

In some ways, Gendry is more similar to Stannis than he is to Robert. He's stubborn and taciturn, and he often expresses these attitudes with - as Arya puts it - his "stubborn" jaw, and we all know how Stannis is master of the grumpy jaw. Anyway, it's a total missed opportunity that these two never got to interact more. They might actually get along.

[3] Davos/Stannis (unrequited? that's up to you), Melisandre/Stannis (it's ~complicated), and Stannis/Selyse (#duty ( ... )

I have mighty need of Jon being into Sam's fashionable swishy robes, just saying. Both real and metaphorical. ;) ;) ;) also in which universe Jon wasn't in love with him since page five of the first GOT chapter where Sam showed up? ;) )

Haha! YES. I'm glad you agree Jon's Samcrush is well-documented.

(Your icon is unbearably adorable, by the way. :3)

Admittedly when Thorne was shipping them two pages after they met... what more documentation do you need? ;)

(haha thank you! I made it like ages ago but it's still perfectly viable ;) )

I totally laughed at seeing "Littlefinger/monetary inflation" as one of your preferred pairings. An image come to my mind of Littlefinger greedily reading books by famous economists and plotting how he was going to use their ideas in his grand scheme to take over Westeros. Adam Smith's invisible hand? Littlefinger can SO do better than that!

Haha, yes! This is how it goes down:

Everyone: "Oh no! We'll simply never pay off the crown's debt!"
Littlefinger: "Actually~...."

I welcome throwaway mentions of Littlefinger's scarily sophisticated economics in any fic. It greatly amuses me.
