Title: The Secret Diaries of Jon Snow & Robb Stark, Aged 16 ¼
Authors:

Summary: What if Robb and Jon had livejournals? In 21st century Britain? And some of the other ASOIAF gang did, too? I think this can be safely classed as crackfic. Light Jon/Robb content. Warnings for alcohol use and lots of teenage angst!

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical
naked,
dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry
dynamo in the machinery of night . . .
I can't do this any more. I just…
Never mind.

Dad's never home and Cate hates my guts. Rickon's always breaking my records. I had a limited edition pink vinyl of Lullaby by the Cure and he used it as a frisbee. A frisbee. God. I hate my life. I hate it. I hate everyone except Robb. Sometimes I hate him most of all. God. He told me to cheer up about the vinyl. I feel - I don’t know, betrayed or something. He should know how much it means to me, right?
I really don’t want to go to school tomorrow. First exam is maths. Like there’s any point to that. All of these exams are a joke. It’s not like I’ll ever be able to do what I really want, anyway.

I fucking hate maths. When am I ever going to need to know about quadratic equations? Is plotting curves on graphs a requirement for running a business? I need at least a C to get into sixth form but if Theon can get one then I’m probably sorted.
Also, I can’t tell if Jon’s sulking in his room or revising really hard. I was going to talk to him about Rickon who keeps telling me ‘Jon no fair’. Mum’ll probably kill him if she hears that. I shouldn’t have to feel responsible for this.
Right, going to go stare at bendy lines now. Lates.

This week. I don’t know. Sometimes I wish I could talk to Robb the way I used to, before he became best mates with Theon. I just feel like I have so many things in my head that I want to tell him, but when it comes down to it I just stand there looking like an idiot with my mouth open. Sometimes I think I should show him my livejournal, but then I think about what Robb would think about me having a livejournal. Theon said blogging was gay and Robb laughed. God, I want to tell him. I hate him not knowing something this big about me.
But he laughs at Theon’s jokes and I can’t stand it if he laughs at me. Him teasing me about my hair’s bad enough. Even if I like it when he ruffles it.
Oh yeah, this week’s exams. They were fine. Whatever. I finished the chemistry paper half an hour early, so I wrote a poem.
everything breaks -
(nothing’s sacred; not even
this:) they say a circle’s
eternal but i
have
the pieces to show the lie
of that.
Which reminds me: I mounted my broken Lullaby vinyl on the wall. I’m starting to think it’s better like that.
"be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
don't struggle like that or i will only love you more
for it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
the spiderman is having you for dinner tonight" ~ Lullaby
I feel like that. So much.

Theon and I had a post-exam piss up last night. Not actually done with all the exams yet but I had so many this week and I’ve gotta let loose somehow. Arya could totally tell I was hung-over when I went to get breakfast a while ago, don’t think she knows what it means though.
I feel like shit but we should do this every week of the exams, yeah, Theon? I think I’ll need it. Also, that Roz chick was totally fit. Hook me up, man.

Ugggh. I feel like shit. I was fine when I woke up but now I kinda want to go to bed like right now but I have to revise for English. Poetry doesn’t even make sense anyway. I’d talk to Jon about it because he always knows about stuff like this but he’ll think I’m an idiot because I can’t remember what the difference between assonance and alliteration is. (Okay, I know now cos I googled it but that’s not the point.)
Anyway, fuck, my head. I don’t know why I do shit like this with Theon. I mean it’s sort of fun but I’d rather feel human right now than be all cool with Theon and all the stupid girls he hangs out with. Is there something wrong with wanting to date a girl with a brain? Like I want someone I can talk to, you know, but all these girls are just stupid and then they get all drunk and horny and it’s just not want I want. God, I’m such a twat. One of those chicks was hot and everything.
If anyone wants to give me a crash course in war poetry I’d definitely appreciate it. Think I might actually go to bed now though.

So happy right now. Didn’t know revising English Lit could be so much fun. I mean, I know I love poetry, obviously. But revising with someone - It makes a difference.
Suppose I’d better go to bed. Pretty sure I’m going to ace this exam tomorrow.

So Theon’s facebook has no security settings cos he’s an idiot, and I saw his photos from Friday night. Lots of him being stupid and Robb with his arms round him, and then Robb with some bird with loads of cleavage.
Feel sick. Guess I can blame it on exam nerves.

The English lit exam today was actually okay and revision wasn’t too bad in the end. I do still think poetry is kinda bullshit but it’s like well thought-out bullshit and at least the war poets were writing about something important not just like some old lesbian talking about her feelings.
I think I might actually have done well in the exam actually. I was averaging a B in the coursework so fingers crossed, yeah?

Haven’t written in ages cos I’ve had so many exams this week. Tonight we’ve got one of those bullshit family dinners, where Dad pretends it’s normal for us all to be at home at the same time eating dinner together. Bran and Rickon are still young enough to think it means something and that one day Dad will start leaving the office before 8pm. Yeah, not going to happen.

At our family dinner tonight, dad basically told me he doesn’t want me to take over the company ever. He didn’t say it like that though. He was like all ‘you should do what you want to do’ and everything but I guess I always assumed that I would inherit it or whatever. I don’t know. But we were talking about A Levels and Jon was saying that he was going to do English lit and all this other stuff but then dad asked me and I told him I’d do whatever he recommended for helping to run the business. Then he came out with all this ‘I don’t expect you to follow in my footsteps, Robb’ bullshit and I wanted to say that it’s what I want to do but, I don’t know, too chicken I guess. Yeah. Shit. I think Jon tried to talk to me about it afterwards but I just came up here instead. No idea what I’m going to do now tbh. Guess I just have to get through the exams first.
Keep getting texts from Theon about coming out tonight. I think I’ll go because being fucked has got to be better than this.

I saw X-Men: First Class tonight with Robb. Just me and Robb. Sorry, Sam, I promise I’ll go and see Harry Potter with you. Thank fuck Theon wasn’t there. I swear every time I see him lately I have to work really hard not to just deck him.
Anyway. The movie was amazing. Really amazing. Charles and Erik - I mean, I’ve been watching the trailer again and again, so I was hopeful, but it was just, yeah, everything I hoped for. But the whole time I was sitting there really aware of Robb sitting right next to me. Right from when Charles says Erik, you’re not alone. At the end where Erik says I want you by my side. We're brothers, you and I, I could feel I was shaking a bit. After the film we went for a beer, and Robb said: “that was a bit gay, wasn’t it?” and he laughed, but he looked at me with this...expression, I don’t even know, and - I almost told him. I did. God. That would’ve been stupid.

Went to the cinema with Jon last night. It was really good to spend time with him. Jon is definitely my favourite person in the family even though he’s not really one of us. I mean I don’t really get him sometimes though. Even last night was a bit like that cos we went to see this film and it was X-Men so I thought it’d be people blowing shit up and like phasing through walls and you know superpowers and stuff but it turned out to be all about Professor X and Magneto and how they were friends once. (I should have known cos Theon was all sarky about it when I mentioned it saying that it looked gay and like ‘just Jon’s thing’.)
The film was alright though. Bits of it were pretty lame (like how they cried at each other) but it wasn’t bad. Anyway I looked around at Jon during the scene at the end where Magneto and Professor X were like breaking up or whatever and I was going to say something about how it was totally gay but he was staring at the screen like it was the most amazing thing he’d ever seen. I did mention it at the pub later though, how gay it was, and then I thought ‘shit what if Jon’s gay’ and then I thought ‘well, I mean, I guess that’d be alright’. I mean he’s Jon and he likes poetry and shit but he’s one of the nicest people I know. Fuck.

plainjeyne: X-Men was great! I love James McAvoy. I was sad that he didn’t have his Scottish accent in this though. Pwoar.
thebull: Jon sounds cool. I do think there should have been more explosions in X-Men First Class though. Magneto has skillz though. I wonder if he could like sharpen knives with his mind as well as throw them at Nazis. That’d be awesome.

I think Jon is beautiful and I am very drunk. Also I almost posted this as a public entry. Also Theon is the biggest dick I know and I know he’d make a joke about having a big dick if he read that but seriously what a dick. I mean he is one. Also I only mentioned Jon because he is asleep on the sofa in the front room and he looks like an idiot but fuck I need to sleep. Exams on monday. Also I think this entry should be private. FML. I just read this back. FML.

So last night was. God. I don’t even know. I revised all day and then Sam came round for a bit, and after that Robb came in with Theon and they were both completely drunk. And Theon was a dick, even more than usual. But the good thing was that for once Robb seemed to think so too, and they had a bit of a row and Theon went home. Robb and I ended up sitting in the living room drinking this sherry that’s probably been in the cupboard since Christmas, and I was knackered because I’d been up since 7 revising but I didn’t want to go to bed cos he started stroking my hair. And then I must’ve fallen asleep on the sofa cos the next thing I knew Cate was shaking me awake and having a go at me for drinking because she’d found the sherry bottle in the bin. Thanks, Robb.
I keep thinking about it. The way he stroked my hair. I’ve hardly seen him today cos he’s hungover. I don’t know why Cate doesn’t have a go at him. He goes out drinking way more often than me. Oh, yeah. It’s because he’s her son and I’m not.

I don’t think I ever want to speak to Theon again. Also I think I may be remembering what I did last night and I might move to Canada so I don’t have to deal with it. Also I think I heard mum yelling at Jon earlier and it was probably my fault because I was the one who was yelling and I don’t think Jon was even drunk before I got home.
Also does anyone know if you can join lj comms without someone on your flist seeing? I’d just cut Theon but I he’ll still be at sixth form next year so I don’t know how I’d explain it.

Any tips on how to ask someone if they’re gay and not make it weird? I know this is a weird thing to say but I don’t know where else to ask.
On the plus side, only two more exams to go!

princessofflowers: i’ll ask loras but definitely a tricky one. i’ll get back to you?
princessofflowers: loras says he normally just eyes guys up and normally only the gay ones get the hint. he’s ended up having to deal with a couple of straight guys who took offence though so maybe not a great idea. sorry if that’s not very helpful!

Last exam today!!!! Going out with a few people tonight. Just to The Inn at the Crossroads I think, cos they don’t check ID there. I bet all the idiots from our year will be there too. Hopefully most of them will fail their exams and they won’t get into the sixth form.

I had to stop Theon from giving Jon’s friend Sam birthday beats after our last exam today. I don’t think it even was Sam’s birthday. Theon just yelled out ‘birthday beats’ and started hitting him. He is such a dick. I’m still not really talking to him since last weekend’s incident.
Anyway everyone joined in giving Sam birthday beats and Sam’s enormous but he’s just this harmless fat kid. I told them to stop and then someone was like ‘I think Robb wants to take it for him’ and then they all started hitting me. Twats. One guy actually punched me in the eye I swear. It might bruise. Watch this space for impressive pics if it does. Anyway it was worth it because Sam was really grateful and Jon was smiling at me like I was the fucking messiah or something. I don’t know why he hangs out with Sam because he’s completely pathetic. Then again it’s probably better than spending time with Theon. He’s fun sometimes but most of the time I just want to deck him. Particularly right now.
Fuck, everything hurts. There were like 5 guys all punching me and a couple of them kicked me. Going to shower and check for bruises before post-exams lash up. So glad it’s all over.
