Comment fic meme #2

Mar 05, 2012 15:28

After the first round of got_exchange we had a surprisingly successful comment fic meme going for a while (here's a list of all the fics that were written last time), so I thought it might be fun to do this again. (Like last time, it's posted on the mod account journal because I don't want to enable anonymous comments on the exchange community.)

There are a lot of things he regrets.

They don’t tell him about Robb Stark right away. After his half-life below, before I knew my name, Theon sometimes muses, it wasn’t even clear that he would survive, let alone be able to assume any semblance of a normal life. Slowly, he’s able to think again, with a mind that is less clouded with each day, and although his daily rituals may seem off-putting to the men in Stannis’ camp, and troubling to the few Ironborn who have survived the onslaught, they are what keep him focused on living again. And that’s all that he cares about, for a time. That’s all that he can care about, as his body heals, the skin slowly knitting (I’ll always be scarred, Theon thinks without regret, the first time that Asha permits him to see what’s been done to him), hands gradually losing their tremor, shambling frame growing more substantial ( ... )

Argh, this is so heartbreaking. That last line is gorgeous. I'm too tired to think of any coherent comment, but this is really beautiful.

Thank you - I've needed to write something from Theon's POV for a while. Why am I shipping Theon/Robb now?

Because you ship Greyjoys with everybody? ;)

Much like Roose. The Greyjoys may become my new fandom bicycle.

This is heartbreaking and beautiful. Oh Theon. I love how you look at the process of Theon discovering and coming to terms with what's happened to him and also what's happened to Robb, including his initial disbelief at all the rumours. So lovely. And Theon would sugarcoat his memories of Winterfell and he would need to. Oh, god, this is gorgeous & Theon is already dead in a way. Ugh. ♥

I've been wanting to explore that side of Theon for a long time, since I've written the "process" of his madness/ruin, just not the result. And yes, it is utterly heartbreaking and I have so many Theon feelings that it's ridiculous almost.

I guess it's a testament to the abruptness of the Red Wedding that even the characters don't believe that it has happened.

Thank you - am so glad that you liked this.

I'll admit to crying while writing both of these. Something about post-ADWD Westeros just brings on the D: in my fic.
