The Blessings of the Old Gods and the New by libkat (14,832 words, last updated 08 Aug 2018)

Summary: Danaerys wants Jaime dead. Bran works some magic.

Things I love: Little Jaime and Brienne with their itty bitty direwolves stole my heart, Bran and his powers (“Do not think to threaten me in my own godswood” I love him), Sansa absolutely besotted with the children, Davos acting as the voice of reason as he does so well (Dany: I’m killing Jaime Lannister child or not. Sansa: You’d have to kill me first. Arya: I’d kill you first. Davos, poor man: No one is killing anyone. The “you murderous children” was left unspoken), the entire environment of Winterfell for these two adorable children.

Brave New World by suffolkgirl (114,962 words, last updated 29 Nov 2021, one chapter to go)

Am I cheating with this one? Yes, yes I am, unrepentantly. It’s almost finished, it will be finished, sometimes I just want a win. This story is an absolute win.

Summary: When his relationship with both his siblings implodes, Jaime Lannister decides to start a new life in a place where no-one knows him. But it may not be as easy to escape his past as he thinks...

Things I love: Sam, Jon, and Jaime’s friendship, this iteration of the Quiet Isle, the gaming gang, the slow burn between Jaime and Brienne, the Lannister nastiness and cruelty, a believable look at what it’s like to get sucked back into a toxic environment, the softness in Jaime he’s had to bury for so long, Jaime and Sansa’s friendship and bonding over surviving abuse.

Break the Shape We Take by classeyspanks (7,185 words, last updated 18 Nov 2021)

Summary: R'hllor gazed upon her Love, her pale fingers tracing the brow of the babe he held in his arms.“When the veil between the realms thins, she will be needed.”Her husband shifted the child’s weight, his lips whitening as he pressed them tightly together. “She didn’t ask for this. I… I just want her safe.”“She will have help.”Far away, in the depths of the Citadel, a single glass candle flickered to life for the first time in millennia.

Things I love: Intriguing worldbuilding, particularly around the Evenstar prophecy, Jaime needling at Brienne because he loves to see her eyes and her blush and to argue with her, something dangerous lurking in the trees and impaling deer on branches, Brienne brave and fearless when she’s doing what she’s been born to do and awkward and withdrawn otherwise, Jaime and Brienne teaming up.

This Broken Jaw of Our Lost Kingdoms by Vera (vera_dragonmuse) (8,257 words, last updated 22 Nov 2021)

Summary: Eight years ago, a fragile peace was forged in the heat of a bloody war. Now shifter tradition orders that all will come together to discuss law, treaties, and to try to accept what the world has become. Brienne just wants to see Sansa, the Wolf Queen of the North, there and back again safely. Fate has other plans.

Things I love: Interesting, engaging worldbuilding, how Sansa and Brienne work together, Brienne and Pod’s friendship across lines, shapeshifting, the sharp-edged history between Brienne and Jaime.
