It's time for a redraw! I still love the starlings and my joy is see them smiling.

If the day comes when you must find me again, just give this coin to any man from Bravos and say this words to him:
Asoiaf ship meme - Gendrya edition
Thanks @melrosing for the idea, and for unlocking a memory for me!
canon divergence stark family. they all lived, they're all happy, no one hates no one (not saying WHO *cough* catelyn *cough*) and it's the year 305 AC (seven years later) so there's two more kids.
so:
robb, aged 21, bran aged 15 and rickon aged 10 (he's a large bulky kid)
jon snow, aged 21
sansa aged 18 and arya aged 16 (she had a growth spurt at 14)
edwyn, oc, aged 5/6. he's a twin
harwyn, oc, aged 5/6. he's edwyn's twin
ned aged 42, catelyn aged 41. cat MIGHT be pregnant in this again
working on a “they all lived” stark artwork set 7 years later. jon is not part of the night’s watch. it’s actually lowkey set in a canon divergence fic i’m writing. ANYWAY. there’s two more starks and a third one on the way cause… cat really likes having lots of kids and having sex with her husband
sO
this is jon, he’s 21 and look! he’s not miserable!
this is robb, he’s also 21
these are sansa and arya, they’re respectively 18 and 16 (arya had a growth spurt)
this is bran, aged 15 <3
this is rickon, aged 10 (he’s very stocky and tall for his age)
thIS is harwyn, an oc. he’s 5/6 years old. he’s a very happy kid with auburn hair and blue eyes like his mother
this is edwyn, harwyn’s brooding twin. he has the stark looks and hair colour but his mother’s hair texture and freckles.
and these are ned and catelyn, aged 42 and 41 respectively
A reunion I want to see.
(I’m sorry anon who asked me this, I can’t find your question anymore, I think I deleted it by mistake. Hope you’ll see it :)
She'd had so many names. Had she only dreamed Arya Stark?
Day 14: Identities - Names
someone has been leaving flowers at Ned Starks tomb
older Arya and Rickon with Shaggydog; I just wanted to draw aggro bloodthirsty Stark kids cuz gdi life is so unfair for them I just want them to go out there and raise a little hell slit some throats GET SOME JUSTICE
For some reason... I'm in!
Arya/Willas, he didn’t want a proper lady
Added to our prompt page!
I just wanted them to be happy together
I met your Tumblr recently and I'm really enjoying your drawings. If you're not asking too much, I would like you to draw Arya Stark winning Jon's Needle in AGOT or Ned and Arya at any time. 😊😘
She looked at the blade in her hand. “Does this have a name? Oh, tell me.” “Can’t you guess?” Jon teased. “Your very favorite thing.” Arya seemed puzzled at first. Then it came to her. She was that quick. They said it together: “Needle!”
What if... arya in dorne...
An game of thrones au where nothing happens, but arya goes to bravos to learn how to be a proper lady with a sword. And now she's back to her family and wolf.
A father holds his daughter’s hand for a short while, but he holds her heart forever.
“I know I just slept with Brienne who I have a deep attachment to, and I’m about six seasons deep into a redemption arch but Ima peace out and get crushed by rocks with my sister wife”
“I wonder what brienne is doing right now”
I think the thing that’s really striking about the got books as opposed to the show is the way Martin never shies away from how physically damaged everyone is left. In the show Tyrion gets a badass scar but in the books he looses half his nose, Briennes teeth are broken and a chunk of her face is literally bitten out. Theon looks like an old man, his body is completely wrecked -
But they’re still not beyond hope. Their stories don’t finish with the horrible things that happen to them, their scars and deformities, they go on, and it’s not pretty and tragic and romantic like a story
Every single book in the series makes a point about how violence and war is romanticised in literature and history and Martin makes his character a living testament to the reality of war, the ugliness, the trauma, and that depth is just another thing that got glossed over in the show where people stay pretty and everything that made the books special is watered down.
Let your characters be ugly. Let them get hurt. Let them be scarred, and watch them get up anyway.
Our girls 🙌🏻
Day 4: House Stark
Arya, the lone wolf, still lived, but the wolves of the pack had been taken and slain and skinned.
... Behind them, Gendry groaned. "Lords and ladies," he proclaimed in a disgusted tone. Arya plucked a withered crabapple off a passing branch and whipped it at him, bouncing it off his thick bull head. "Ow," he said. "That hurt." He felt the skin above his eye. "What kind of lady throws crabapples at people?" "The bad kind," said Arya, suddenly contrite.

Tysm for the support on the last post !!
Here’s a thing I made of what I imagined House Stark looked like when I was still reading the first book !
Every time someone tries to compliment the stark girls there always going to be an annoying ant putting them against each other in the comments, y'all do realize you got beef with characters that would literally be in middle school? You have beef with middle schoolers
The Stark sisters are truly my roman empire, apparently being a fan of both is unpopular here on Tumblr but i love them. I think their relationship is so realistic, anyone with a sibling will tell you about the times they didn't get along, i think this fandom thinks their relationship is cruel because they think their age gap is bigger than it actually is, they're just two years apart and don't understand each other's ideals so they have conflicts but it's so very obvious how much they love each other from Arya thinking of needle for all her siblings "even for Sansa" and Sansa imagining her daughter would look like Arya ☹️ Doomed sisters how i love you
A few months ago i made a post about Sansa and Arya and how their relationship is pretty normal for siblings (specifically sister) and how the rivalry their stans have is fucking stupid. No matter how people wanna spin it Arya and Sansa are literally children, they didn't even go through puberty before being separated, people cry and whine "Sansa did this" "Arya did that" but it's not really something i take seriously or which i blame either of the girls for and people are still under the fighting about who's more evil.
People want to make Sansa to be this evil woman who pushed Arya under the bus and got someone killed when the blame lies solely with Joffrey and Cersei or people want to act like Arya is straight up unfeeling that should act like a lady and everything is her fault. Sansa was a bully to Arya and Arya wasn't exactly nice to Sansa either, that's the truth they were children put against each other by societal norms, if you want someone to blame, blame their parents.
Bro why are people still arguing under here damn 😭🙏
This whole Sansa vs Arya shit always makes me laugh, "Sansa bullied Arya" bruh my sister used to call me a fucking whale and i used to make fun of her teeth cuz she had kind bunny like front teeth it's normal for CHILDREN who are also SIBLINGS to make fun of each other "Uuuh but Jeyne Poole also made fun of Arya" I'm a younger sibling my sister and her friend did not want me around when they were together and would usually tease me to make me leave because guess what? They were children that did not want a random ass kid in their business (and they were older than both Sansa and Jeyne). Arya teases and makes fun of Sansa too y'all i promise you that shit ain't that deep, we literally know that they love and care deeply for each so this whole rivalry y'all got going on needs to stop cuz it's getting embarrassing this girls are between the ages of like 8-11 please stop trying to make them out to be bad people, they are children and children are selfish and assholes sometimes doesn't mean they're evil
Me when asoiaf siblings
