Author: hardlyfatal
Canon: Game of Thrones/ASOIAF
Pairing: Jaime Lannister/Brienne of Tarth
Rating: Mature [R]
Word Count: 15,187
Summary: Brienne loses herself, and Jaime is forever changed. A conjecture about how Jaime might reunite with Brienne, now that he's left Cersei and KL to go north and fight ice zombies. Humor, drama, sex-- for what more can you ask?
Recommendation: This is the follow up for Season 7 that I really needed, so much. Of course I love Jaime and Brienne reconnecting, but also Jaime and Tyrion letting bygones be (while being snarky Lannisters at each other). I love Sandor being a caustic purveyor of wisdom and Jaime being able to see the sense in it. I also love Tormund being such a good guy even though he wasn't going to get the girl. And Pod, bless him.
Addendum: My "Post Season 8" self is ready to weep over this story because of what might have been.
