“I have a son, You have a Daughter”

Day 30: Canon Divergence AU

If the day ever comes when Gendry would rather wield a sword than forge one, send him to me. He has the look of a warrior.

Lord Eddard is able to escape the city with his daughters and any of Robert's bastards he can find. Gendry becomes one of Winterfell's guards and Arya's sworn shield. He remains a rather poor horsemen though.

Part 2

Sansa: If I fall…

Theon: I’ll be there to catch you.

Jaime: *looks at Brienne* What if I fall?

Brienne: Then I’ll fall with you, never leaving your side.

Gendry: *watches both interactions*

Gendry, to Arya: And if I fall?

Arya: I’ll be the one who pushed you.

Do you ever read an angsty fic that has way too much angst and you are just like

I know Ned was stressed as hell seeing his daughter, who resembles Lyanna physically and in attitude, become friends with Robert’s bastard son and Edric Dayne aka mister pale blonde hair and purple eyes. Like that man was about to die again from a heart attack, hands shaking as he pulled at his hair, thinking to himself “no, gods, no. Not this again. No one give my girl a flower please”

She spun away and said to him, no featherbed for me. I'll wear a gown of golden leaves, and bind my hair with grass, But you can be my forest love, and me your forest lass.

ARYA STARK VALENTINE'S DAY | Day Two | Tropes

reunion?

i heavily dislike when people depict arya hitting gendry in anger when they are reunited with eachother, other than feeding into the feral(she's too far gone)!arya headcanon that this fandom loves, it does not makes sense at all, from the end of agot we can see that arya is developing abandonment issues, that they get stronger and stronger during acok and lastly asos, that's why when gendry takes the decision to stay with the bwb and make a living out of it, arya is not mad, (sure she lashes out in telling gendry that it does not matter to her if he gets hanged due to now being an outlaw) but that is her hurt feelings speaking, she's deeply hurt that another person she considered a close friend is choosing to leave her, this ties with arya's class blindness but i digress, and it's deeply connected to arya's low self-esteem issues, her thinking how she's not good enough for people to actually want her in their life. and that's one of the saddest things about gendrya misunderstanding eachother, we know how much arya's kidnapping affected gendry, how much he has changed, and the brotherhood too, he's doing things that arya would have done/wanted (taking care of orphans) and (meeting her mother and working under her house) when he wasn't sure about them in the first place, he joined the brotherhood because he witnessed them holding a fair trial and most importantly the bwb wanted to help the smallfolk caught in a war-torn country, and he's actually class conscious, gendry knows that his friendship with a northern princess will never be accepted, and all around them indicates that their friendship has run it's course (nevermind they were literally getting jealous about eachother) and exactly at the other side we have arya thinking how everything it's her own fault, and she thinks herself stupid for even trusting gendry and hotpie when it was clear that they never wanted her as a friend in the first place... so with all of this context in the background: why would arya be mad and hit gendry when they finally meet again? i'm not saying that i want them to be the bestest of friends when they see eachother again, they clearly have issues to work on, and honestly i don't see arya considering gendry as trustworthy from the get go like they once were, but after sometime in eachothers company again, i can see them sharing a hug

“Your Seven have a sept, Sept-Beyond- the-Sea, but only Westerosi sailors worship there.” They are not my Seven. They were my mother’s gods, and they let the Freys murder her at the Twins. She wondered whether she would find a godswood in Braavos, with a weirwood at its heart.

…all but the black-haired boy from the forge, who crossed his arms against his chest and sat glowering as the others prayed. Brienne was not the only one to notice. When the prayer was done Septon Meribald looked across the table, and said, “Do you have no love for the gods, son?” “Not for your gods.” Gendry stood abruptly. “I have work to do.” He stalked off without a bite of food. “Is there some other god he loves?”asked Hyle Hunt. “The Lord of Light,” piped one scrawny boy, nigh to six.

Jon: So are you gonna explain how the hell you crashed my car?

Arya: Well we were driving and there was a deer in the road, so I said "Gendry, deer!"

Jon: ...And what did Gendry do?

Arya: ...He said, "Yes, Honey?"

Day 13: Class Differences - The daughter of the Hand and the son of the King

The Red Keep and Flea Bottom

She had been sleeping in Flea Bottom, on rooftops and in stables, wherever she could find a place to lie down, and it hadn't taken her long to learn that the district was well named.

i miss Gendrya... *runs away back into my cave*

Have you truly lived until you cried over a fic.

I don’t care how unlikely it is, the thought of Gendry, Jon, Nymeria and Lady Stoneheart meeting halfway to Winterfell to kill Ramsay for demanding the real Arya to be brought to him is fucking hilarious
