    Summary

    "Now I have three heads: one for speech, one for sex, and one for second guessing." - Analicia Sotelo. 'South Texas Persephone'.

    Her door clicks open and nearly clips her in the face. It could be a sudden draft, but Amy is doubtful. Her fist clenches shut around the marble. It is pretty. She could look at it for hours, the way it catches the light. It’s almost like a sweet. Want curls up in her chest like a cat. She thinks she’ll keep it. A gift from the big grey orphanage, just to her.

    “That’s mine,” comes a thin, cold voice, and she sees the boy across the hall for the first time. His room is directly across from hers. He is pretty, she thinks, like a drawing from a book. The lines of his face are smooth and pale. His hair is dark and neatly parted. He holds himself very rigidly, like a miniature soldier or a wind-up toy. “That’s mine,” he repeats, sharply.

    (In which Tom Riddle is not the only strange child to come out of Wool's.)

    Summary

    Stormbreaker strikes Thanos a couple inches to the left of where it does in canon, with much more satisfying results. However, revenge alone won't fill the voids left behind by all that Thor has lost. The Time Stone might be able to help with that.

    Infinity War Thor is thrown back into his younger body on the night of the botched coronation. He's going to be doing things a lot differently this time.

    Summary

    "I didn't even get to say goodbye," Sansa sniffled into his tunic.
     
    "I was going to send her bones to Winterfell," Ned said slowly. "But the men found a weirwood tree near the road, about an hour north of here. They will bury her beneath it, and the old gods will watch over her."

    Lady is buried beneath a weirwood tree, and Sansa prays to the old gods for Lady to stay with her. Her prayer is answered, in a manner of speaking. Everything changes.

    Summary

    Sansa held on to her naivete for as long as possible, but, standing before the entire court pleading for her father's life, she is forced to face reality. Now she has to scramble to come up with a plan to save her father and keep the North from going to war.

    A deal with Cersei leaves her married to Joffrey and doing her best to make it from one day to the next. But Westeros is still at war, and Sansa soon realizes that she deserves more than just passive survival and the people deserve more than a weak queen.

    Will she be able to make a difference or is she doomed to be a victim and a pawn her whole life?
