Summary
As was the case with most things these days, Halbrand smelled the intruder before he caught sight of her. Roused from the depths of a much needed post meal nap, it took him a moment to shake off the last vestiges of sleep that clung like stalactites to his limbs, every grumble and groan out of his mouth cursing the fact that the forest he had now spent years cultivating into an apparent state of desolation had proved no match for a highly determined, golden haired village girl.

Summary
Set in an AU where Sansa is in Winterfell when Theon takes it.
When Lord Stark was forced to kill his daughter’s direwolf, Lady, he broke his daughter’s betrothal, and sent her and her wolf’s bones home to Winterfell. Sansa Stark’s skin turned from porcelain to ivory when she learned her former betrothed’s true colors. She was forced to watch her older brother march from home to save their father, and then hear the news that their mother joined him. She’s Lady of Winterfell now, caring for her two younger brothers and the people of the North. She shoulders her father’s death as best she can for the sake of her younger siblings, knowing Robb will deliver justice in their father’s name.
She’s surprised when Theon Greyjoy, her brother’s best friend and her father’s former ward, returns to Winterfell with the intent of taking the castle. He succeeds, and he takes her for his bride. But unlike her last betrothed, she doesn’t fear him. She’s Winterfell’s daughter, the blood of the North. Courtesy is a lady’s armor and she will wear it with pride for the sake of her home. She will wear him down with kindness until her brother comes home and saves the day.

Summary
Jon Arryn, revered and respected Hand of the King, is dead. Though many assume his death to be of natural age, others have suspicions... including his widow, Lady Lysa, who is determined to make up for her strange grief-induced amnesia by being the best damn detective King's Landing has ever seen. With her flair for dramatics, regrettable habit of jumping to wild conclusions, and questionable disregard for law enforcement, what could go wrong? Anything and everything, as it turns out.

Summary
The anger came later, after they got home. It hit Jace seemingly out of nowhere, like something finally clicked. They’d been laying in bed in each other’s arms, in the quiet, and then Jace had tensed, and rolled away, and that had been that.
The good days-- the now good days, not the before good days -- he cries or takes out fossilized hope and holds it in his hands like an old photograph, and lets Cregan hold it too.
On the bad days… it’s this. Anger, with nowhere to go. A lonely fortress that they call The Spare Room, because nursery isn’t helpful.
And it isn’t accurate.

There is a room upstairs in Jace and Cregan's house that sits empty. The Spare Room, they call it. But it is much more than that. It is a thousand hopes and dreams shattered. It is beige walls that should be bright. It is the place where Jace hides away on his bad days, the place where Cregan cannot follow.
