Comment fic meme #5

[gotexchange_mod]

I hope everyone isn't too busy with the porn battle for the post-exchange comment fic meme. As usual, I would very much appreciate if you could help spread the word about this meme on LJ or tumblr or wherever - the more people know about this, the more prompts and fills there are. :)

The rules are the same as always:

- please include the pairing/character (and maybe a short prompt/kink) in the comment title - both for prompts and for fills.
- there are both show and book fans in this community, so please warn for book spoilers beyond ACOK in the comment title. Please also warn for non-con, violence etc.
- anonymous comments are enabled, but I'd appreciate if we kept them to a minimum. If you absolutely want to go anon, okay, but I'd rather we kept this as non-anonymous as possible.
- all prompts are welcome: smut, gen, romance, crack, fluff, angst, het, slash, femslash ... anything goes.
- be civil, no character/pairing bashing, no kink shaming etc.
- please don't derail other people's prompts with comments like "I think this would be better if it was about a different character" or the like. Post your own prompt.

It's perfectly fine to reprompt ideas from the previous comment fic memes, the exchange or other kink memes. If you missed the previous fic memes, you can find the masterlists here: #1, #2, #3, #4. (Make sure you don't accidentally post new prompts over there, nobody will see them.)

As with any kink meme, this is only fun if people also fill prompts, not if there are only requests.

Filled prompts:
Catelyn & Lysa: The Tully Girl Who Mattered
Petyr/Sansa: scar kink
Victarion/Asha: Coming home
Stannis/Jon: Scars
Jon/Sansa: Jon as step-father (or father-like figure) to Sansa's children.
Sansa/Oberyn: anything that involves the water gardens.
Petyr/Sansa: Modern AU
Arya, Bran: The Race (Brothers and sisters are as close as hands and feet.)
Victarion/Asha: Practicality
Selyse/Stannis, Shireen: Victorious
Sansa/Oberyn: Five Gifts
Stannis/Jon: In the Skin
Sandor & Arya: Long Road Home
Sandor/Sansa: Daddy in Charge (Sandor babysitting his kids)


Multiple fills are of course welcome.

Re: FILL: Stannis/Jon, Scars 3/4

“Let me stay,” Jon said in a low voice, not breaking eye contact.

There was silence.

“You have no idea what you’re asking.”

“What do you take me for, a boy who blushes when a comely girl looks his way?”

More silence followed.

“No, I take you for the Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch. But you’re still a boy in many ways.”

Jon wanted to shout back, “I killed the boy! I killed him, haven’t I proven that to you yet?” But he never got a chance to, for when he opened his mouth, Stannis grabbed his face with his two hands and tilted it upwards before roughly kissing him, forcing Jon to swallow his retort.

Later that night, when Jon was lying exhausted and spent next to Stannis on the king’s bed, he noticed a white scar on the man’s left shoulder. The scar was too jagged and wide to be caused by a knife or a sword, and it looked almost as if something had tried to bite him.

Mimicking Stannis’ touches earlier in the evening (for most all subsequent touches had been hard and desperate enough to leave bruises), Jon lightly traced the scar. When he could feel Stannis’ yes on him, he asked:

“Where was this scar from?”

“A hawk. Its owner didn’t care for me either, much like your eagle.” His voice was sad, a tone that Jon had heard him use only once before, when he lamented not keeping his Hand at his side.

“Did you kill the owner as well?”

“No, as much as I was sometimes tempted to. I would have taken his love instead.” Stannis let out a long sigh. “When I was a boy, I nursed an injured goshawk hack to health. The bird, Proudwing, became so fond of me that she would sit on my shoulder and fly after me around Storm’s End—but never properly hawk. Robert had a gyrfalcon that was as vicious and as deadly as they came. On day, when Poudwing was sitting on my shoulder, Thunderclap dived from out of nowhere in an attempted attack on my bird. I can still sometimes feel that damnable hawk’s talons and beak digging into my shoulder.”

Jon was slightly horrified at the tale. It was akin to if Grey Wind had tried to attack Ghost and thought nothing of having to tear though Jon to get to the other wolf.

“Did your brother train his hawk to do that?” asked Jon, dreading the answer.

“No, I don’t believe he did. Robert would never physically harm his brothers in such a way, no matter what else he may have felt about them. But I do recall him laughing when I told him what his hawk had done, which was nearly as cruel as if he had ordered the attack. ‘Weakwing must have seemed like prey,’ he replied.”

Robb would never have said something like that to me. But there was no point in saying that, for he doubted Stannis would understand how close and how much love there had always been between him and Robb. He squeezed Stannis’ shoulder, in what he hoped was a comforting gesture.

With that, Stannis threw his furs over the both of them, pulling Jon toward him so their bodies were flush against each other once more. Jon could feel warm breath on the back of his neck, which sent a jolt up his spine.

It was odd, he thought, that Stannis hadn’t ordered him out of his chambers yet, like he usually did when the fire had been reduced to embers and Jon had started to yawn.

It must be the cold. It’s because of the cold that Stannis hasn’t demanded me to leave.

But that was okay. It’s not like Jon had any intention of leaving, anyway.

I have no idea why the fic meme is so slow this time. There aren't even that many prompts this round. But of course I'm incredibly happy that you brought some Stannis/Jon to the party. :D

This is absolutely wonderful. I have such a thing for scars and the history behind scars, and people caring about each other's scars, so this is just great. I love how Jon realises that Stannis is as lonely (and cold) as he is. The explanation behind Stannis' scar was great, and also the parallel (despite the obvious differences) to the scar Jon has on his face. The background in this fic - how people behave around Jon after his resurrection, everyone except for Stannis who's the same sa always - is also wonderful, and I just love Jon's horror at the story behind Stannis' scar, how he realises that his own relationship with Robb was so much different from Stannis' relationship with Robert.

This is just such a wonderful fill. I love your writing. You always include such amazing details in everything you write, it really brings the characters and the story to life. Thank you so much for writing this.

The world is ALWAYS a better place when there's more Stannis/Jon around...;).

It makes me happy that you noticed many of the details that I put into this, like the mood at the Wall and the mentions of loneliness. I kinda wanted to slap Jon in ADWD for sending all of his friends away and then lamenting how lonely he feels (which he blames on his position), and even though we never get a Stannis POV that guy has to feel some loneliness, given his position and the fact that he sent all of his friends away as well. Anyway.

The two of them are so similar, and I kind of see Stannis as who Jon would become if he was leeched of all his compassion and never had so many close, loving relationships. That's one of the things that makes them so fascinating to write.

Thanks so much for your comment! It means a lot ;).
