It's amazing how many characters you manage to include in so short a space, linking them together by shared losses and shared bonds. Excellent work, that.

I like the idea that Ghost is more Jon's consort than his queen, and that Sansa mourns her Lady. It speaks to the importance of those wolves to the Starks (or almost Starks, like Jon).

Whew! That's a relief; I was kind of worried the reaction would be more like, "Damn, Tater! How many character names can you cram into 350 words?" ;) Really pleased you think they work. I'm now totally in love with the idea of Celibate King Jon--there will be rumors about him like there are about the Mormont women. ;)

Thanks for reading, dear.

Oh, right in the Sansa/Tyrion feels. This is really lovely, and Tyrion's so delightfully in character that I might just weep. Really brilliant :)

[mrstater]

Thank you so much! I heart them so much!

They don't get near as much love as they deserve - adult!Sansa and Tyrion would just be the most amazing end game ever. I have a horrible sneaking suspicion that GRRM is leaning more towards SanSan, although it may just be that the fandom is skewing my perspective and making me bitter towards that pairing :L

I think they have great potential to make each other happy, and I don't really see that in SanSan. If Sansa and Tyrion don't end up staying together and being the brains behind Westeros, I just want them to be happy!
