Summary
“I can sleep out here—you should take our bed,” she offered.
“I would not dream of it,” he replied stiffly.
She shifted uneasily, fingers twisting together. “But the settee is small and you are—"
“It is not befitting of a lady of your station,” he bit out, unsure why she would not cease.
“But—"
“Truly, Penelope, I will not hear of it.”
Post 3x07: Strained by betrayal and the aching distance between them, Colin spends the first week of their marriage torn between anger and an unyielding love he can’t ignore. Their unresolved tension comes to a head during a confrontation over the settee. As their heartbreak unfolds, Colin must decide how to honor his feelings while taking the first steps toward healing what feels irrevocably shattered.

Summary
He’d said his name was Debling, and if she looked at him from the right angle, under the twinkling lights of the beachfront dance floor, he definitely resembled Colin.
Kind of.
Perhaps with one more drink in her system, the sort that would keep her senses intact but loose, dulling the ache in her heart, she could fully let go and allow herself to leave with him.
“Mind if I cut in?”
Penelope’s heart slammed against her ribcage.
That voice. Startled jolts shot down to her belly before radiating through her limbs.
Her head whipped around, too stunned to believe the man she’d spent weeks trying to forget had just appeared in the flesh.

Summary
Ser Podrick is sent to spend time in Winterfell because of a foreboding feeling from, not the King of the Six Kingdoms, but Bran Stark. The news are not welcomed by Sansa or by the Lords in the North but she knows that, for her safety, it is paramount to listen to the warning and to convince her subjects to accept the presence of the man whom they believe might be a spy for the King.
Neither Podrick nor Sansa, not eve Bran suspect the consequences that their actions will trigger. -

Summary
“Do you truly have to ask what I was doing the night before our wedding?” Colin spat, the bitterness in his tone ricocheting to lash out at them both. “I thought Lady Whistledown knew what happens everywhere in London?”
Penelope's breath caught audibly, but she said nothing, just staring at him, wide-eyed and wary.
Colin tilted his head, his voice turning mocking—cruel in a way he knew he’d regret but could not contain. “Surely the carnal customs of a stag night at White’s have not escaped her ears?”
It was a bitter conjecture, one he did not truly mean, but it was also a test. And from the way her face paled, the look of utter agony that crossed her countenance, he wished he had not posed it.
A reimagining of Season 3, Episode 7’s wedding-eve confrontation, packed with angst, passion, and steamy moments. What if that purported scene involving prostitutes had not been cut? What if we could hear what Colin says to Penelope during their kiss? What if we'd had more time to let the original script's dialogue breathe and make sense? After months of post-season 3 polin brain rot, this is my labor of love.

Summary
In the heart of White Harbor, Sansa Stark is rebuilding her life—thread by thread, stitch by stitch—as a designer honoring Northern legacies through her work. Behind the safety of her meticulously crafted condo, she balances creativity, ambition, and lingering scars, striving to preserve her family’s traditions while forging her own path. But when an old friend, Podrick Payne, reenters her world to help with a work project, Sansa is forced to confront the walls she’s built and the possibility of letting someone in.
A prelude to my Due North fic that turned into a series of its own. Sansa's modern AU journey, as I imagine it, with lots of fashion and family and healing and birds...

Summary
It was bloody inconvenient to realize you were in love with your friend when you were on another continent, stuck in a work contract for 8 months. It was the ultimate irony, Colin supposed, to have been in each other’s lives since childhood, had easy access to each other, only to start dating when they could barely even facetime. And now, having a romantic reunion to remember was remarkably more challenging surrounded by his family who did not know they were dating. But all he wanted for Christmas was Penelope, and he would do anything he could to make it count.

Summary
“All is well now.” She could not help but assure him.
“It is not,” he objected. “All is not well between us at all. I can feel it.”
She could formulate no rebuttal. He was right and it would be dishonest to deny it. She watched him grow more aggravated from her silence.
“You are not at ease with me anymore,” he continued. “Openness once marked our relationship, allowing it to take shape so naturally over the years, but now you rebuke me at the slightest expression of it.”
He was speaking circles around her, failing to make sense. She could not deny things had changed, but his logic dizzied her. Or perhaps that was the warmth of his palm that had shifted down, cupping her neck, as his fingers wove softly into her hair.
Or, they finally confront each other.

Summary
Something had altered between them. There was this rupture in their friendship that she resisted his attempts to mend, interpreting his most innocuous actions with mistrust and suspicion.
He remembered the turn of her countenance when he confessed how beautiful he found her. Why did she act like it was so inappropriate, downright untoward, for them to speak openly, as they always had? As though all the soft smiles and sharp barbs she'd always bestowed upon him were no longer his to seek out.
How could she think he pitied her, when nothing be further from the truth?

Summary
Had Penelope been delayed, merely by five or ten minutes, she would have missed the scuffle. She would have returned home unimpeded after delivering her column. But that was not to be.
Where was Colin truly coming from in his conversation with Fife? And what if he found out the very next day that Penelope heard him, and promptly went to apologize, only to find that she was much more fragile and precious to him than he realized?

The Intonation of Their Love by Elizzybeth

Summary
Until they were married, Penelope had no idea how many noises Colin made in any given day. From when he awoke in the morning with a groaning stretch, to his quiet, enthusiastic chomping at meal times. The clicking sound from his tongue as he read the newspaper, to his soft snores just as he fell asleep. Her husband was full of many sounds.
If Penelope dares to put aside her wallflower shyness and be more bold with her husband, what sort of sounds would he make then? Can their love make her confident enough to find out?
