Can we all just agree and say that season 7 of Game of Thrones was the final season of the show and the writers/creators/GRRM decided to let the fans decide how it ends through means of fanfiction and fanart?

Cause I’m reading two amazing GoT fanfics that are doing a way better job at wrapping the show up than the actual show is.

Here are the fanfics I mentioned above;

Title: Love on the Brain by ashleyfanfic.

Relationships: Jon Snow/Daenerys Targaryen, Arya Stark/Gendry Waters, Jaime Lannister/Sansa Stark, Tormund Giantsbane/Brienne of Tarth, Meera Reed/Bran Stark

Chapters: 96/?

Title: Night Dragons by GreedofRage

Relationships: Jon Snow/Daenerys Targaryen, Lyanna Stark/Rhaegar Targaryen, Arya Stark/Gendry Waters, Edric Dayne/Sansa Stark

Chapters: 90/94

Note: My personal favorite of the two.

I would add to the list this one:

Title: Home

Relationships: Jon Snow/Daenerys Targaryen, Arya Stark/Gendry Waters

Chapters: 66/?

Drunk Words (Ethan Ramsey x MC) part 4

Open Heart, Ethan Ramsey x MC

Β Author’s note: Hello, hello, hello! We are all in the dark place after today’s chapter, so here is a little thing to maybe help you all even a little bit. I am currently working on a piece with interlacing the events from chapter 12, as well as the Ethan’s POV of chapter 12, but those are still to come. As for now, here it is.

Enjoy! <3

Β Β Β He approached her slowly, standing in front of her, amazement in his eyes.

β€œThese are for you.” he handed her the flowers, eyes never leaving her face.

β€œThey’re lovely. Thank you.”

β€œYou look… ravishing. So beautiful it’s unreal…” Ethan very rarely had trouble with voicing his opinion, but one look at her was enough for him to struggle with finding words to describe her.

β€œYou don’t look too bad yourself.” Claire laughed, her cheeks reddened under his intense stare.

β€œClaire.” He extended his arm, inviting her to lace her hand through his.

β€œEthan.” She replied with a smile, linking their arms and letting him guide her out of the hospital.

They made their way towards his car, not caring about the stares people were giving them. Ethan opened her door for her, helping her with the back of her dress and then getting in himself.

The car ride was quiet. So unlike them, but it felt like a first date, both nervous and unsure of what to do.

Ethan’s hands ached. He longed to take her in his arms and never let her go, but he knows he cannot do that. It’s to soon, for both of them. He opted for something simpler and instead brushed his fingers against hers, not saying a word.

Theatre was slowly getting more and more crowded; people were coming in and making their way towards their places. It was really easy to get lost. For that, and only that reason, or so he told himself, Ethan placed his hand on the small of her back softy, tentatively, careful not to cross the line. He felt her body go stiff for a second, not knowing who’s touch she felt, but as soon as she realized it was him, she relaxed a bit.

He led her to their seats, letting her go first.

Sitting down, Claire had the chance to look around and take in her surroundings.

The stage was beautiful, curtain was made out of a red, rich material, descending gracefully from the ceiling. The sides were made of wood, golden elements adorning them in a few places, intricate flowers and leaves climbing up the columns.

Looking up she could see the ceiling, and it was unlike anything she’s ever seen before. Paintings were places all over it, depicting various scenes from classical pieces, some of which she recognized, some of which were new to her, unknown, but exciting, spiking her interest.

Ethan was looking at her, mesmerized. The attention she paid to even the smallest details in every field of her life, beginning with her job and ending with her surroundings in the outside world, was admirable and so attractive to him.

He watches as her eyes followed the artwork up above them, sparkling with joy and curiosity.

He took her hand in his softly, extending her index finger, before guiding it upwards, focusing her attention on one of the paintings.

β€œThat’s from β€˜Tristan and Isolde’. It’s from the scene in the woods, while being on the run…”

β€œβ€¦ they were living in the woods and he decided to return her to the King, not wanting to expose her to the life of unknown future. I know. I read it.” she smiled at his surprised face.

β€œYou read classical literature? I must say, I’m impressed.” Her hand was still in the air, his fingers slid down her arm, reaching her elbow, tickling the skin there, goosebumps rising.

β€œI’m full of surprises.”

β€œI am aware. You don’t have to prove that.”

β€œOh, I know.” She leaned in, teasing him. β€œBut I’m going to do it anyway.” She whispered, then leaned back, leaving him flustered and confused.

β€œYou’re something else, you really are.”

β€œWhat is new, right?” they both laughed.

Β The lights died down, curtain went up and the show began.

Ethan was nervous, not knowing if she’d like the play he chose, but the look of pure happiness and excitement on her face said it all.

He chose the perfect one.

Claire was immersed into the plot, the actors playing, music, costumes, the look of the stage, it all stunned her. It was like a dream come true; all she’s ever wanted to see on stage was right before her eyes.

The more time passed the more the plot thickened, characters making critical choices, going unknowingly towards their destiny, which was still unclear.

A young man made his way to the center of the stage, speaking loudly and clearly about his feelings and thoughts on life, love and society. Unknown to him, another man was creeping up on him, a knife raised.

In the last moments of his life he saw his one, true love, standing before him, bathed in white light, dead and waiting for him on the other side.

Claire, without thinking about it, reached for Ethan’s hand, lacing their fingers, squeezing them from time to time. His pulse quickened every time she did that, looking at her instead of at the stage.

The music reached its peak as the man crossed the stage to take his wife by her hand, letting himself go, peacefully, happy to be reunited at last. The whole stage illuminated by white light, smoke twirling softly by the floor.

Last notes could be heard and then it was dark.

The lights came back on a few seconds later, the ensemble came onto the stage to take their bows.

Claire stood up, clapping in a polite and full of emotions manner, a β€˜thank you’ to the cast, while Ethan stood by her, clapping along, but his eyes were once more on Claire and Claire only.

That woman was truly amazing, a picture of pure perfection, polite and well-behaved… at least most of the time, and she shared his interests, appreciating art in all its shapes and forms, just like him.

Β A while later they went outside, her shawl not covering up enough of her bare arms and back to provide any form of protection against the cold air of the night.

Ethan noticed, as if he could not notice anything that concerned her. He took his coat off, wrapping it around her shoulders, his scent taking over her senses, making her mind go blank for a second.

β€œThank you.” she smiled, wrapping herself in it even tighter, hiding her nose in the soft material, taking a deep breath.

There was something about his scent, something so distinctly his, a mixture of a strong, masculine scent and something soft, comforting, a perfect match for his persona.

β€œSo, what do we do now? You have something planned, don’t you?” she asked, despite the fact that she already knew the answer.

β€œYou know I do. That is, only if you want to, but I’d like to take you to my favorite restaurant.” He blushed, another thing he didn’t do often, only with her, because only she could make him feel such a whirlwind of emotions.

β€œLead the way.”

Β Claire was slowly starting to realize that he was holding himself back, unable to make any decision on his own, because he gave up all control to her. That was something new, he loved his control, it made him feel safe and confident.

By letting her take the reins, giving up his power to her, he was making himself vulnerable. Ethan was letting her take control, so she could lead them through their relationship at her own pace, taking as much time as she needed.

Deciding on using a little of that power, she reached out to lock their fingers together, their hands hanging between them.

Neither said a word, letting their actions speak for them, louder than any words ever could.

If you want me to tag you, let me know and if I forgot to tag anyone, tell me so I can correct that! Β :D

OMGGGGG, i love this Ethan!! Please tag me!<3

Wow, Jon Snow Didn’t Have to Obliterate Jonsas Like That But Bless Him That He Did...

  • *Nearly breaks his neck to jump off his horse to go and greet……BRAN*
  • *Kisses Bran’s forehead to within an inch of his life*
  • β€œSansa thinks she’s smarter than everyone.”
  • β€œIt’s cold up here for a southern girlβ€¦β€Β β€œThen keep your queen warm.” *grabs for Dany like his life depends on it*
  • β€œI never wanted a crown. All I wanted was to protect the North.”
  • β€œDo you think we can beat the army of the dead without her?”
  • β€œWithout her, we don’t stand a chance.”
  • β€œShe’ll be a good queen. For all of us. She’s not her father.”
  • β€œNo, she’s much prettier.” Jon Snow (externally): *smiles*, Jon Snow (internally): you should see her naked.
  • β€œWould you have done it?” β€œI’ve executed men who disobeyed me.”
  • β€œYou’ve also spared men. Thousands of wildlings when they refused to kneel.” β€œI wasn’t a King.”
  • β€œDaenerys is our queen.”
  • β€œShe shouldn’t be.” β€œThat’s treason!”

Thanks Jon, Dany will appreciate it <3

sam to jon: you gave up your crown for your people, would she do the same?

me: Idk what to tell you dude, she already did that by going north to fight the white walkers and save everybody, instead of going to KL and taking the iron throne. if she was as power-hungry as some people think, she would have done what cersei did: go to dragonstone, stay safe, wait for her enemies to die

But guys!!!! Jon defended Dany!!!! He said that he also executed men who disobeyed him and that he didn’t ask the Wildlings to bend the knee because he wasn’t a king!!! OMG!!! THANK YOU, JON!!!!!

CAN I JUST SAY

The anger/grief that Sam is dealing with is absolutely understandable, but everyone dragging Daenerys for it, do you remember why Sam was at the wall? His father sent him there to die.

Randyll Tarly betrayed Olenna Tyrell and swore allegiance to Cersei Lannister, the woman that blew up the Tyrell heirs and killed multiple innocent people.

Why? Because he was xenophobic against β€˜outsiders’ in Westeros.

When Daenerys listened to Tyrion and was willing to give Randyll the option of going to the wall. She was willing to spare him. He refused.

In terms of Dickon Tarly, I can understand that to a certain extent. However, because Randyll Tarly refused the wall and his son stood with him, Daenerys would have looked like she had mercy for the noble houses, as if they were better than the people who fought with them.

She wants to break the wheel.

The wheel Sansa benefits from. The wheel Cersei benefits from. The wheel all the noble houses benefit from, at the expense of the people.

Of course they are going to hate her.

But as Daenerys said in S8, episode 1. She doesn’t need to like me. But I am the Queen. She needs to respect me.

Sansa has no respect for Daenerys. She is operating on petty jealousy and is not nearly as smart as she thinks she is–her victory against Littlefinger, I think, has made her arrogant. Her behavior and language thus far has showed that.

Arya is acting more like a sister that just wants what’s best for Jon–she wants to make sure Daenerys will not be a threat.

In addition, there is a large bit, I would argue, of misogyny at play. When men in Game of Thrones kill enemies, they are commended for their strength of character. But when Daenerys does it, she’s suddenly showing signs of being a mad queen? I smell bullshit.

Tl: dr, Daenerys bashing is some bullshit

THAT’S RIGHT!

Can we talk about this?!

Let’s just take a moment to appreciate, Dany legit tried to get closer to Jon when the Northerners were grumbling and being a-holes.

First we see, Dany and Jon’s armrest are completely unused.

But then, Dany glances at Jon and he notices. Faintly, you can see her hand not-so-subtle lift up. And Jon notices this too.

Then Tyrion continues talking and we see, for now, its only Dany with her hand out.

But then, in the next frame that we see their hands, their right smack next to each other.

Yeah … These hoes really aren’t being subtle.

AAAAAAAA, why I didn’t notice that??????’

Jon: β€œMan I can’t wait to be back in Winterfell reunited with my family who I haven’t seen in such a long time, like nothing can possibly go wrong now, I have a super hot badass girlfriend, I have the largest army in Westeros, shit tons of dragonglass to make weapons, literal freaking dragons, and they’re all all coming to help save the north”

Jon arrives in Winterfell: *Literally everyone in the north including his family act like ungrateful babies and act like they don’t need help and treats Jon like a pariah for doing the one thing he said was going to do to help save the north from literal ice zombies all because he fell in love with a Targaryen queen*

PD: Yeah, I know the whole scandal Amber Heard is involved with, all the bad thing she did to Johnny and it’s unforgivable. But I always imagined Amelia with her face and Daniel Henneyas Liam, and I’m not gonna change that, no at this moment at least x_x
