Arya/Gendry Fic Recommendations
YAY! New Game of Thrones tonight! I don’t know what I’m more excited about: finally meeting Brienne or seeing more Arya and Gendry (and Hot Pie too!) shenanigans…
NOTES:
*I have yet to read the books, but I have spoiled myself quite a bit through comment threads and fan-fiction. Still, I can’t always distinguish between a spoiler and the author’s creations. Read with caution (This is a fair warning for anything online related to GoT. I swear, I was reading something last year about, I don’t know, fashion on the show or something like that, and in that post was a blaring comment about a particular wedding in the third book. Err, thanks a lot for that!).
*Many of these are flaw-free and others could use a bit of editing. I was able to overlook the grammar errors because I thought all of the stories were fantastic (Plus, I’m new to this fandom, so I’m kind of in the easy-to-please stage.). Just thought I’d add a warning if grammar mistakes make your eye twitch!
*These range from fluffy, kid-fic to mature, smut-filled stories. If I mentioned a teen or mature rating, expect sexy-fun-times. ;)
*If one (or many!) of these fics is yours, I’m sorry for not commenting. I’m horribly shy about leaving comments sometimes (always the lurker), but just know that your story/stories made me flail and I want more from you! :D
*I’ll keep updating this list. Err, I’m a little obsessed! Enjoy!
