honey_wheelerLast-year’s fic roundup. For reference, previous round-ups can be found here (though I haven't migrated all the old livejournal links to dreamwidth so if you're really interested in the back-back catalog, you'll either need to do some searching on AO3 or ask me for a specific link).
My So-Called Life
And I’d Send You a Letter From There.
It’s not like we’re going out or anything. It’s just letters. Letters don’t mean anything. Like, maybe they meant you were engaged or something back in the Korean War, but they don’t mean anything now.
Angela Chase/Brian Krakow. 3,216 words. (January 15, 2019)
Red Rising Trilogy
Some Other Beginning’s End.
She’d felt like a goddess to Sevro. With Sevro. With Darrow, she feels like a Pink. Future fic what if, no spoilers.
Darrow au Andromedus/Victra au Julii. 987 words. (February 24, 2019)
Sky High
Between Two Worlds, a new chapter of Come And Save My Life.
“I was wondering why you don’t wear your hair pulled back here at school like you do at the restaurant,” she says, ignoring his irritated expression. “You look so much friendlier that way.”
Warren Peace/Layla Williams. 544 words. (October 15, 2019)
The Hunger Games
The Slow Heart.
The others protect him because of the girl, because of Katniss, but you do not. You protect him because it seems he’s the last beautiful thing in this life and you’re determined that he won’t be lost, won’t be swept between the floorboards to be forgotten.
Female Morphling, Peeta Mellark. 466 words. (October18, 2019)
A Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series
Two’s Company.
Margaery’s parties are the stuff of legends.
Brienne of Tarth/Sansa Stark, background Asha Greyjoy/Daenerys Targaryen. 1,587 words. (February 24, 2019)
Everything That Sings and Sounds (And Sighs, In Its Turn).
It’s a bit like a banquet after starving for years, or gaining riches after a lifetime of penury. The freedom to touch, to kiss, to surrender to desire, to feel… It’s almost more than Jon knows how to handle.
Jon Snow/Daenerys Targaryen. 1,591 words. (April 16, 2019)
The Door to Your Room Was the Door to Mine.
When he groans again, a slow smile spreads across her face. Arya Stark has known only a small amount of power in her life, he knows. The unwanted power of nobility as a girl, the implacable power of deadly skill as a woman. Her smile tells him he just gave her one more power.
Arya Stark/Gendry. 2,588 words. (April 28, 2019)
Holdfast.
Lyanna knows she will not run, not this day. This is her battle and she will fight it.
Lyanna Mormont. 419 words. (April 29, 2019)
I Feel My Fate in What I Cannot Fear, part of once upon a time.
He will not live forever, he knows this. Jaqen H’ghar understands the inexorable better than most. Still, it often seems as if he might.
Jaqen H’ghar. 262 words. (April 29, 2019)
Other Joys.
His tunic joins his jerkin on the floor with her gown. She doesn’t question that he still wears his trousers, just as he makes no comment on her shift. This is why she chose him, he realizes. And this is why he came. Only they can give this to each other. Only between themselves can they turn their pieces into a whole. Warnings for mentions of past canonical abuse
Theon Greyjoy/Sansa Stark. 1,786 words. (May 01, 2019)
A Soft Place to Fall.
It had been like salt in an open wound, watching Brienne with Jaime Lannister. Sansa had never seen her look so young and girlish. So happy. It’s everything she’s long deserved, but oh, how it reminded Sansa of what Ramsay had taken from her. Warnings for mentions of past canonical abuse
Sansa Stark/Tyrion Lannister. 1,181 words. (May 08, 2019)
The Heart Asks Pleasure First.
It feels as if she teeters on a precipice, where she must choose whether to flee or fall. She trembles, unsure, until Jaime tips her head onto one hand, his lips sliding across her cheek, down the side of her neck, then back up until his mouth is against her ear. “Brienne,” he breathes, and oh, she falls.
Brienne of Tarth/Jaime Lannister. 1,505 words. (May 12, 2019)
Impossible Not to Want.
Rhaenys would rather have died than wed her brother Aegon. With Dany, she’d rather die than wed anyone else. Warnings for aunt/niece incest, underage sex
Daenerys Targaryen/Rhaenys Targaryen. 994 words. (May 15, 2019)
Cut the World in Two.
Courtesy is a lady’s armor. How many times had Sansa repeated those words to herself? As a reminder in King’s Landing. As a caution in the Vale. As a prayer with Ramsay. At some point, her armor ceased to be something that kept danger out and grew into something that kept Sansa herself in.
Jon Snow/Sansa Stark. 2,061 words. (May 18, 2019)
Not For Ourselves Alone Are We Born.
He kisses near as well as any whore, and Satin finds that though he meant to give warmth and comfort and even pleasure, Jon is giving those things back to him as well. He can’t remember the last time such a thing occurred, and it proves too much, too vulnerable for him to bear.
Jon Snow/Satin. 1,281 words. (May 28, 2019)
TheGreat Other.
The woman is important too.
Nissa Nissa, Meera Reed. 551 words (WIP). (May 29, 2019)
Kingmaker.
Robb has no need of a shell. All his armor is on the inside. It’s one way she and Robb are alike.
Arianne Martell/Robb Stark. 651 words. (May 29, 2019)
Sweeter at the Marrow.
She sets him to learning lovemaking the way Haldon would have him memorize dates or conjugate verbs: concentration and repetition, practice practice practice.
Young Griff/Septa Lemore. 1,040 words. (July 29, 2019)
Polytropos.
There are perks to being the first husband.
Jon Snow/Daenerys Targaryen, Daenerys Targaryen/Daario Naharis, Daenerys Targaryen/Jorah Mormont. 949 words. (September 02, 2019)

Total: 19 fics/ficlets, 5 fandoms, and 25,331 words.
