Have you read (all) the books? Have you seen the show? Do you have any book vs. show preferences? I’ve read the books (and all Winds of Winter sample chapters) and seen the show. I strongly, strongly, STRONGLY prefer the books.

What kind of gift can you make? Fic and/or fanart? Fic.

Preferred characters and/or pairings: Starks (Jon, Robb, Arya, Sansa, Ned in particular), Baratheons, Davos, Theon, Jaime, Tyrion, Sam, Val, Jorah; Jon/anyone, Stannis/Sansa, Stannis/Davos

Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: Targaryens, older Greyjoys, Martells; Sandor/Sansa, Petyr/Sansa

What kind of genres can you write? The only genre I really can't do is smut. I prefer to write fics set within the Westeros universe as opposed to modern/historical/other fantastical settings.

Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you? I don't think I've ever been unhappy with the prompts you've assigned me :). You know what things I tend to write and the characters I gravitate towards. Though I have to say that after this past season of the show I'm dying to write about Jon as King in the North and continually bash Stannis after his totally well deserved death!

What kind of gift do you want to receive? Fic and/or fanart? Fic.

Preferred characters and/or pairings: Starks (Jon, Robb, Arya, Sansa, Ned in particular), Baratheons, Davos, Jaime, Tyrion, Theon, Sam, Jorah; Jon/Sansa, Jon/Val, Jon/Arya, Jon/Shireen, Jon/Theon, Stannis/Jon, Stannis/Sansa, Stannis/Davos

Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about: Targaryens, Boltons, older Greyjoys, Martells, Melisandre; Sandor/Sansa, Petyr/Sansa, Jaime/Brienne

What genre of fic/art do you generally want? (Gen, slash, het, angst, fluff, romance, smut etc.) Fine with most things, as well as any rating you feel fits the story. I always enjoy stories with character development/character analysis over gratuitous romance/smut. Also, I'm not a fan of overly tragic or depressing endings (We already have canon for that!), so please don’t kill off the major characters. I want something good to happen to them!

Your pet peeves and other things you DO NOT WANT in your story/art: I’m not a fan of settings other than Westeros, PWP, Queen-in-the-North!Sansa, show versions of characters, and R + L = J beyond the ambiguity that already exists in canon. I would rather Dany and her dragons stay in Essos (unless indicated by a prompt). Also, please ignore anything HBO has done with Stannis and Jon's story arcs.

Are you willing to pinch hit? No, sorry!

Prompts:

1. Jon/Sansa or Stannis/Sansa: He's not handsome or charming, but Sansa has come to learn that a decent man who will treat her well is the most attractive man of all. The level of the relationship can range from romantic to entirely platonic, for I’m very interested to see Sansa interact with Jon/Stannis post ADWD where neither Queen Daenerys nor R + L = J come into play.

2. Stannis and Davos: Something pre-canon, such as Davos helping Stannis plan the attack on Dragonstone, Stannis brooding with Davos after a frustrating small council meeting, Davos and Stannis working together to solve a mystery, Davos interacting with Robert/Renly/Stannis at the same time, or Stannis visiting Davos and his family on Cape Wrath. I’d like to see a focus on how the Stannis/Davos dynamic that we see in canon develops, for Stannis easily could have sent Davos off to Cape Wrath after the Storm’s End siege and never bothered with him again. While this prompt is gen, UST/repressed feelings between the two are welcome.

3. Stannis/Jon: Jon bends the knee. I don’t care when, I don’t care how, but I’m very interested to see Stannis and Jon work together in a capacity other than King/Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch. Perhaps Jon accepts the lordship of Winterfell or a place on Stannis’ Kingsguard or Small Council. Level of the relationship can range from romantic to entirely platonic, though I have a weakness for hints of father/son interactions between them.

4. Ned interacting one-on-one with each of his children, including Jon. Feel free to set it at any time during before or during canon, or even have Ned’s spirit visit each of his children in a dream à la Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. I just want to see some Stark gen with Ned trying to be a good father.

5. Jon and his father figures: Jon has a whole string of father/mentor figures in the books, most of who tragically end up dying after importing their own unique wisdom. Write a story focusing on Jon’s relationship with one (or any number) of these men and how he’s able to influence Jon for good or for ill: Ned, Benjen, Tyrion, Jeor Mormont, Donal Noye, Maester Aemon, Qhorin Halfhand, Mance, Tormund, Stannis.

6. Get one of these pairs of characters to meet up/interact anytime pre, during, or post canon to talk, revisit old grudges, form an alliance, or anything that seems appropriate for them: Stannis and Tyrion, Stannis and Jon, Stannis and Sansa, Stannis and Shireen, Jon and Davos, Jon and Tyrion, Jon and Tyrion and Sansa, Jon and Tyrion and Stannis, Jon and Stannis and Daenerys and Tyrion, Jon and Theon, Jon and Jorah, Jon and Jaime, Jon and Arya, Jon and Shireen, Davos and Stannis, Davos and Stannis and Ned, Davos and Tyrion, or Davos and Theon. Feel free to do any amount of hand-waving necessary to get the characters in the vicinity of each other.

>>>Feel free to combine any of my prompts and include characters/pairings mentioned on my preferred list. If you don’t like any of my prompts, write something with my preferred characters/pairings. I’ll likely adore it.
