#nonny asks

Ciao nonny!

Well first of all… isn’t she already? She’s the de facto Lady of the Eyrie, or as we say facenti veci for Robert since his mother has died (*cough cough* has been assassinated once she wasn’t useful anymore *cough cough*). She wears the Lady’s clothes and jewels, she organises the keep and the journey and as well as the tourney for the naming of the knights of Robert’s guard (her own idea if we have to believe what little we have seen of Winds). All things a regent would do, LF is too busy plotting and Sansa is seizing that blank of power and doing what she knows how to do best, breed loyalty and rule.

Remember who her mother is. Sansa has learnt how to manage a keep. She knows how to rule in the stead of those who can’t and has seen her father doing his job as Hand for however briefly; she has seen what corrupted power looks like and she always remembers that loves is the surer route to loyalty. Of course regency is in her cards; why in the show she was regent of the North whilst Jon was away.

She’s striking up a friendship with Myranda (and through her she will have the Royces, and the Lords Declarant of the Vale) just like Ned did with the valemen, and whilst Littlefinger plays his games (possibly poisoning sweetrobin) Sansa is playing her game too.

Hypothetically… LF is ready to marry Sansa off to Harry the Heir (and maybe ensure the actually becomes the lord of the Vale meanwhile) and then Harry the Heir will move with the knights of the Vale to help her claim back Winterfell, someone must remain behind to rule over the Eyrie.

The natural conclusion would be Sansa, as regent either to an ill sweetrobin or as lady in her own right.

I don’t think sweetrobin will die, mostly because I think LF will not expect Sansa to be smart enough to save him, but somehow she will manage it and learn to slowly outplay LF.

Yet, yes nonny, I think that a possible “full and legal” regency for Sansa over the Vale is completely in the cards.

Also yes. We love the strong, powerful ladies of the Vale! All of them, queen Sharra and lady Jeyne… Rhea Royce too, who ruled Runestone in her own right and when she died (or was killed… still debating) instead of going to her husband all her lands went to her kin, as it should — good job lady Jeyne. Myranda and Mya as well.

I’m glad Simon came around. I was kinda afraid it’d be one of those Simon never likes you, and angst forever. Like bish I don’t like you either. You were just part of the package I had to accept.

Oooh, this nonny? I'm glad you liked it and thank you for telling me so (though why anon? I mean it's fine, I have no reason atm to turn anon off, but I do love to scream from the rooftops with a fellow obsessive a good chat now and then and then. Exhibit A below the cut.)

Yeeting Mira off a cliff and throwing her into a blender are kind of the same thing, no? 😅

Thank YOU for sending me the prompt. It was fun and enjoyable to write

No, because he has no reason to. Canonically Tommy has always called Buck Evan, again, with the single exception during the breakup scene.

If, for whatever reason, Tommy on his own was talking to someone who knows Buck as only Buck, then maybe? Tommy might give a quick, "yeah we're talking about the same person," but continue calling him Evan, and that would be that.

I'm aware that the Tommy and Bucktommy haters out there, of the many things they like to endlessly harp on, is the matter of Buck and his name. Yes, in earlier seasons Buck did seem to have a general preference of everyone calling him Buck, especially when it comes to his parents. But Buck has only ever felt strongly about his parents calling him Evan. Maddie sometimes calls him Evan, which he's never had a problem with. Now in recent seasons Tommy also refers to Buck as Evan, which Buck has not once shown any negative feelings about. Why? Because he's a grown adult that if it had ever been a problem, he would have said something to Tommy about it.

idk i've always just gotten this feeling that louis has a thing for lestat's hands?? his brain always seems to short circuit just a little bit more when lestat touches him. notable examples:

when he put his hand around louis' throat during their first hookup

them gently touching pinkies at the opera (bar none the gayest sentence i've ever typed lol)

louis watching raptly while lestat took notes at that same opera

lestat caressing louis' face before turning him and the way louis subconsciously dips his head toward it

louis infamously sucking lestat's thumb

Honestly high key I like that idea. The vision for the original fic was a Verdugo whi didnt fully transform, but i also really like the idea of a Licker that was developed to be able to identify enemies and not mindlessly attack- then decides its creators were the enemy lmao
