Give at least four and up to six prompts you would like to see written/drawn: [Prompt 2 has TWOIAF info but I think the rest are spoiler-free]

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).

2) The Red Widow. I'm open to absolutely anything about her but some suggestions: her childhood. Her cultivation of her fierce Red Widow reputation. What were her reactions to each of her husbands' deaths--and were the deaths really as innocent as she told Dunk? What was her marriage to Ser Eustace like--particularly after she was mad about his son's death for so long. How did she end up married to Gerold Lannister? Might she meet Dunk and Egg again as Lady Lannister? What about her 'mysterious disappearance'--did she run away? Did Gerold the Golden have her killed or did one of his enemies take revenge for his rumoured murders? Did Cersei ever hear tales about her ferocious great-grandmother?

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) Something about 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 skinchangers? How about Alysane meets Tormund and they share stories about bearfucking? Give me anything at all as long as it features Mormonts.

5) Religion. 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? An atheist in a world full of gods? 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 a story 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
