Thank you, I am so glad you liked it. :D Sometimes I just have an idea and can write it down right away, and the advantage of comment fic memes is that I feel like I can just post it without having to work on it for days. ;)

I think Stannis and Ned could have got along well under different circumstances, but as it is, Ned would still respect Stannis. And even though he doesn't like him, he would think that Robert is being too unkind to his brother.

Haha, yes. I imagine that scene must have been hilarious. Ned would have been all like, "oh, Stannis has a daughter now, we could talk about that :D" And Stannis was just grinding his teeth.

I wonder myself. I have no idea what Davos said, he's the only person who can make Stannis laugh. And yes, they probably don't even notice they touch and are so close. It's just what they do.

It's been said pretty often that Davos is to Stannis what Ned should have been to Robert, but I think the difference is mostly that Stannis listens to Davos, while Robert never listened to Ned. So I'm sure the contrast must have hurt Ned.
(Noooo, don't say that, they must meet again and rule the kingdom together. :()
