Give at least four and up to six prompts you would like to see written/drawn:

I'm open to most things as long as it's not a DNW. If you want to pull stuff apart and combine prompts in different ways, please do feel free to run with them.

1) Loyalty or fealty kink for one of my favourite knight/lord or master/servant pairs. I like it played straight (e.g. trust, intimacy, duty, the servant sees things about the master that no one else does, a bit of H/C maybe), or you can subvert it/deconstruct it and make it a little darker--obsession, for example, or codependence, or one-sided/conflicted loyalty. I'm interested in a lot of pairings that could work well with this trope: Stannis/Jon(/Mel), Stannis/Davos, Jon/Sam, Jon/Satin, Melisandre/Selyse, Brienne/Sansa, Brienne/Cat, JonCon/Rhaegar, Renly/Loras, Aegon V/Dunk, Ashara/Elia, Gerris/Quentyn, Dany/Jorah or Dany/Irri (but strongly prefer these to be dysfunctional), Asha/Tris(and/or Qarl). (I received a fic that I loved for this prompt last round but honestly, I can never get too much loyalty kink).

2) Stannis/Jon canon divergence/future fic where Stannis joins the Night's Watch (maybe he's captured and sentenced to take the black?). Either Jon stays LC and they have to deal with that power shift or a straight-up role-reversal with Lord Commander Baratheon and King Jon Targaryen/the King in the North.

3) Jaime's admiration of the Blackfish. Anything you like. Perhaps something set in the past, either some UST or a near miss or straight-up smut with a young and golden and eager Jaime and a reserved but flattered Blackfish showing him the ropes? Or you could have present-day Jaime reflecting on his complicated feelings and how they're tangled up with his sense of his own worthlessness (shit for honour, lost sword hand) compared to the Blackfish, that shining paragon of knightliness.

4) House Mormont. Some kind of slice of life on Bear Island, or the relationships between Maege and her daughters (or her brother), or something to do with Lyanna left alone to rule and sending that letter to Stannis? Are they really bear wargs? How about Alysane meets Tormund and they share stories about bearfucking? Give me anything at all as long as it features Mormonts.

5) Religion. Theological worldbuilding floats my boat. It could be as grand and mystical as Bran and Bloodraven in the weirwoods, or as simple as a character praying to the Seven. Various ironborn and their relationship with the Drowned God (especially if you include Cotter Pyke and the dead things in the water)? Vignettes of various followers of R'hllor? Feel free to include anyone you like as long as they're not on my DNW list.

6) 'The things we love destroy us every time, lad' - either something about Jon and his relationship with the Old Bear, or use this quote as a wildcard and apply it to any of my faves.

Your pet peeves and other things you DO NOT WANT in your story/art:
No explicit rape, please. I don't want modern AU. I'd rather not get pure fluff. I'm not super fond of Targ infighting and the whole 'secret princes' business and I'd rather that wasn't the focus of a story, though I do believe that R+L=J. I'm generally not keen on second-person fic (unless it's for a particular effect, in which case go for it).

Are you willing to pinch hit? (If you say yes, it only means that I may ask you for help if I need to. You can still say no then if you don't have the time or don't like the prompts.)
Yes

'The things we love destroy us every time, lad' - This is easily one of my favorite quotes in the entire ASOIAF series, so it was wonderful to see someone use it in a fic prompt! What I love about the quote is how it can be applied to most every character/relationship, for everyone has at least one other person who they would do anything for even if it defies all logic.
