    Summary

    It's the last weekend of summer vacation and you're desperate to enjoy a quiet night out in the city before you start your new job as an English teacher at Pennington Prep; an elite private school in the heart of Washington, D.C. that caters almost exclusively to the children of politicians. But when a rude gentleman interrupts your evening and refuses to leave you in peace, the unexpected intervention of a beautiful and alluring stranger leaves you completely enthralled.

    fermata - a pause of unspecified length on a note or rest.

    when a once-ambitious you return home, what will you find? what awaits you?

    “You didn’t tell me that you were back,”

    You didn’t freeze this time, you were calmer than you thought you would be.

    With a wry smile, you turned to face her, seeing her in person for the first time in years.

    “Hello, Alcina. Long time no see.”

    Summary

    Falling into Game of Thrones after being hit by a car was not something Alice Grant planned for, but she knew how the story ended, she knew who ended up on top. She'd stay beside House Stark to ensure her survival, and with the help of her collection of books and old notes, she's sure she can find a way to make herself useful.

    Summary

    Various short ideas and prompts I've written while working on the fic The Old Gods Called, They'd Like Their Kingdom Back. This won't make sense if you haven't read that. But this is the fun rabbit trails that have come up while working on a fic the size of Old Gods.

    Primarily Sansa and Daisy centric oneshots.

    Summary

    When two individuals explode out of the heart tree at Winterfell, the Bolton's think it's a blessing from the gods. It certainly is a change in their fortunes. Sansa expected to die the day the Bolton's did after their guest made the ground shake with her fury. Only she didn't, and now she is nominally the one in charge. With no army, no support outside of those men who saw an angry god and decided not to help their liege Lord, and said god is now her terrifying guest.

    Daisy would like to stop being mistaken for a god, and also reiterate flaying innocent people alive is not an acceptable practice. It would help if Fitz would wake up already because she's clearly not going to be able to get them out of the medieval hellscape they're now trapped in. Although Fitz wouldn't be her first choice of companion to be stranded with. And magic ice zombies, because of course there's magic ice zombies.
