    Summary

    Sansa Stark dies in ice and fire, her thread of Fate severed too soon in the battle for Dawn; she is born again in blood and magic, the Old Gods weaving her anew.

    Finding herself in a new world on the brink of magical civil war, scorned for the "impure" blood that runs in her veins, Sansa is determined she will never again be told that she is less than what she is worth. Through pain and suffering, she has learned how to turn righteous rage into armour, into weapons, and with the blessing of the Old Gods she will fight for what she believes in; for her family, for herself, and for the Fate of her new world.

    Summary

    She thinks it’s a joke at first when she finds out that Joel’s a patroller, too. She’s a veteran, so it was a simple thing for her to be assigned to the work as well, but the idea of gentle, loving Joel with a gun in hand, fighting and killing, is almost laughably absurd.

    She doesn’t know how anyone could look at the man who spends hours on the porch with his daughter patiently teaching her guitar and think “yes, he’s good in a fight.” She doesn’t know how anyone could look at the man who regularly scoops up his fussy nephew and soothes him with an experienced parent’s deftness and think “yes, he’ll absolutely kill without hesitation.” She doesn’t know how anyone could look at the man who lets his teenager manhandle him to steal his food right off his plate because it makes her laugh and think “yes, he’s ruthless enough to take out a threat.”

    She doesn’t know how anyone could look at Joel Miller and think he’d be a good patroller, and day by day, she worries about it more and more.

    (a newcomer to jackson meets joel and thinks he's FAR too soft to be a patroller) (ft. outside pov of joel being a somft girldad) (and somft, period)

    Summary

    “Do you know what I am, Jace?”

    Jace, he says, the same as Mother and Father and Grandfather call him.

    “A knight,” he answers.

    “Aye, a knight. And I’m sworn to protect your mother.” He slips a massive boot beside Jace’s own foot, worn leather so out of place next to his slick new ones, another nameday gift from grandfather. “Which means I’m sworn to protect you as well. If you tell me to keep it secret, I will.”

    Double Agent Vader by

    Fandom Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Original Trilogy

    06 Dec 2017

    Summary

    The one where Vader turned double agent for the Rebellion about three years after ROTS, and Leia is now his primary contact with the Rebellion.

    This is a collection of oneshots that all fit into the same universe, but posted in no particular order. Updated when the muse strikes me.

    Alternate summary, according to TV Tropes: A man attempts to escape slavery by turning into one of his culture heroes, teaching his daughter how to do magic, killing people, and flower arranging.
