This really works! I love how Jon isn't certain what he is, what it means to be a vampire, that the rules are unknown. And it's great how Jon's sense of being an outsider in the canon works here becomes physically expressed.

Now I want them to go off and have Free Cities adventures!

I'm so glad it worked out! It seemed like a really out-there premise but being a vampire actually fits a lot of Jon's canon issues alarmingly well.

... I half want to write them in the comments here now. *tries to resist*

I admit that I too have been thinking about vampire!Jon after reading that prompt, though mine would end up not really filling the prompt in any way except Jon-being-a-vampire. I might write it, I don't know... I would totally like to see some more of this! :)

I'm so glad you liked it and I'm massively flattered that you plan to reread it! It's comments like this that keep me going when I'm slogging through a tough bit of editing. (:

Thanks so much for reading and commenting! ♥
Also: you clearly have great taste in icons. ;)

[sentential]

Agreed! Comments are the best way to let people in fandom know that their contribution is appreciated. If you keep flattering me like this though I will end up flailing in my seat until my arms fall off or something. (: We definitely do need to make sure our little fandom thrives though, for sure.

And now I am wishing I had more icon space on this fic journal. Jon Snow's face in that icon is just so classic.

You took my favorite ship to a whole new level. I think this is my favorite! Jobb + vampires = &hearts
Amazing work, truly.

Eee, thank you! I'm so glad you liked it. This ship is amazing - I swear, it just writes itself, really.
♥!

I adore this! I'm so excited that there are AUs being written about this pairing. I was really curious how the vampire thing would work in the canon setting but you made it fit beautifully and kept everything so realistic. I really love the dynamic Jon and Robb have; just so loving, and Robb's acceptance of Jon, akdjfkd ♥ Awesome!

[sentential]

I'm really glad you liked it! I was surprised how easy it was to fit Jon being a vampire into the fabric of canon, actually. You have to know that Robb would accept Jon, no matter what. They're amazing like that.
Thank you for the lovely comment! ♥

Goddamnit, I missed the sparkles. Shiny shiny!

Ok, seriously now, good job. Glad there was no Twilight sparkles and god, Jon's issues transverse universes so well, don't they? He is perfect for some serious angsting.

Really odd, but in all of it, the thing that really, really really stuck out was Jon hunting with Ghost. The idea that Ghost ran off and brought him the kill and then pretty much destroyed all evidence of it afterwards was just so damn powerful. Great job on that and the whole thing.

Thanks for sharing.

Haha. Next time I write vamp!Jon he will totally be standing in a beam of sunlight in the yard at Winterfell and everyone will see him sparkling in the sun and start staring at him. Then Robb will notice the way everyone's looking at his boyfriend brother and sidle up to Jon and announce to the crowd: "fuck yeah, he's a vampire and he sparkles, wanna see?" And then he'll tear open Jon's shirt (and his overshirt and undershirt, too, because this is Winterfell after all) and let everyone see just how sparkly Jon is whilst simultaneously asserting that Jon is his, all his
