Idiots, lackwits and imbeciles - The Trials of Rickard Stark trying to save Westeros from Incompetence by RickardOnARoll (IncognitoMe)
Fandoms: A Song of Ice and Fire & Related Fandoms, A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin, Game of Thrones (TV)

Summary
„Lord Rickard demanded trial by combat, and the king granted the request. Stark armored himself as for battle, thinking to duel one of the Kingsguard. Me, perhaps. Instead they took him to the throne room and suspended him from the rafters while two of Aerys's pyromancers kindled a blaze beneath him. The king told him that fire was the champion of House Targaryen. So all Lord Rickard needed to do to prove himself innocent of treason was ... well, not burn.“
Jaime Lannister, A Clash of Kings
But what if he did not burn?
Rickard Stark survives the attempt at burning him because the pyromancers could not tie a proper knot.
Watch as he fixes the realm, his family and shit in general from the overall incompetence of kings, lords, knights and other idiots. For though the king may be a mad lackwit, his subjects at least should have a shot at peace and happiness.

Summary
The marriage was a punishment and not Brienne’s. She was to marry the Kingslayer as penance for his heinous crime. Nobody had said thus in so many words but it was clear to all. The betrothal had been a royal command from the King himself and one he apparently took great joy in decreeing.
What’s one more arranged marriage au? 💁♀️

Summary
When Brienne tries out for the boys rugby team, her and the captain don't exactly start off on the right foot.
“And I’m certain that the Kingslayer making Varsity at 15 was all because of an accident.”
“I made the team because I was the best player then and I’m the best player now.”
“And modest too.”
“You know your attitude doesn’t need to be as ugly as the rest of you.”
Without another word, she shoves him aside and walks off.

Summary
“Where to now, my lady?” asked Jaime. “You are a lady, are you not? By your speech?” Her jerkin was ripped at one shoulder, but he could see that it had been fine wool.
She shook her head. “I’ve already said too much,” she muttered, staring determinedly at the dirty cobbles.
“Where are you going?”
“Away from here.”
“Excellent! Away is my destination, too.”
“Why are you following me?”
“Because you don’t want me to.” Jaime grinned. “I like a challenge.”

and give all the love that you have in your soul by janie_tangerine

Summary
“As in, there is one future where the White Walkers are defeated immediately, the Long Night is merely a passing shadow and we are spared most of the senseless deaths that came upon Westeros since Ned Stark died. But it’s not a future I can try to turn into a reality,” Bran says with a long sigh.
“What – what do you mean?” Lord Connington doesn’t sound too convinced, but he’s listening intently, or so it seems from the frown on his face.
“That in order for us all to live, Aerys Targaryen must die not sooner and not later than he did, but Rhaegar must live,” Bran says tiredly, “along with Elia Martell and her children. Whether Lyanna Stark does or not is irrelevant, as long as all three children live and know they are the heads of the dragon. It’s no job for someone like me – I can only walk if I visit the past or the future, not if I want to live in it. How useless it is that one has such powers but then cannot even walk, isn’t it?”
“You – you mean to – send us to the past?” Brienne asks, barely audible.

Summary
Two days after they received word of a Frey girl joining Robb Stark at Moat Cailin and riding off north with him, a ship from the Stormlands arrived, and Tyrion went down personally to meet it.
Or rather, to meet the man coming off of it: one Selwyn of Tarth.

Summary
“Are you Gal’s mum?” The man asked. Brienne narrowed her eyes. She definitely hadn’t met this man before - frankly there was no way she would have forgotten meeting someone this beautiful. He was, by far, the most attractive person she had ever seen in real life. Golden blonde curls, sharp green eyes, a jawline that could cut glass. Frankly it was absurd how gorgeous he was.
“Yes.” Brienne answered reluctantly.
“I’m Dunc’s dad. I don’t know if Gal has mentioned-“
“Oh!” Brienne answered, instantly relieved. “Yes, of course. I’m Brienne, lovely to meet you.” She offered her hand. The man took it but with his left hand instead of the right. He shook it backwards but was smiling easily. Christ, even his smile was stunning. Brienne couldn’t help but look down at his right hand and saw an empty sleeve where the hand should have been. Don’t stare, Brienne chastised herself.
“I’m Jaime.” The man introduced himself. “Lovely to meet you too.”
Cheesy single parent au anyone?

Summary
A modern person is reincarnated to Westeros, despite their best intentions. After Death explains that going back is no option and that they have just the idea where to throw the narrator to, they only ask two things in return: not to be an heir but trueborn and not to be born with one of the names Stark, Lannister or Targaryen. Death proves to be maliciously compliant.

if I give you my heart, will you promise not to break it? by janie_tangerine
Fandoms: A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin

Summary
“It’s not broken,” she protests.
“Please,” Ronnet goes on, “it’s all red. Red hearts like that are broken and their owners are either useless or more effort than they’re worth. ‘Course you would get a broken one, who else would want you?”
“It’s not,” Brienne hisses, and at that he stops talking. She realizes her voice had turned cold. Very cold. A coldness that doesn’t belong to her, she’s never sounded like that, but it seems to come from the pulsing warmth in her hands, again - “and the day I find him you’ll see he’s not broken or damaged or unworthy. And I sure as the seven hells hope no one got saddled with yours.
in which soulmates find each other through one of them having the other's heart.
or, in which Brienne gets a mostly broken one the day Jaime Lannister kills Aerys Targaryen.
