saying no text january 16 2022 100 notes arielseaworth fic riverlings nonetheless during all those years of catelyn s girlhood it had been brynden the blackfish to whom lord hoster s children had run with their tears and their tales when father was too busy and mother too ill catelyn lysa edmure and yes even petyr baelish their father s ward he had listened to them all patiently as he listened now laughing at their triumphs and sympathizing with their childish misfortunes a game of thrones the first time catelyn ran to her uncle with her tears and her tales written for catelyn tully week day 1 daughter of rivers read ao3 tags catelynqueue text january 16 2022 140 notes anonymous asked catelyn arya first steps arielbaratheon deactivated20180 little brandon was late to start walking as well old nan said to catelyn as they watched arya crawl making her way from her mother to the door then back again before beginning the cycle anew but once he did he was almost as swift as the fastest horse in the stable old nan chuckled it was all i could do to keep up with him it was all catelyn could do to keep up with arya now she wanted to explore every dark corners and every darkened rooms in the castle it seemed and was determined to do it on her own two feet or on both hands and both feet to be more precise walking and running she could be almost as swift as the fastest horse in the stable the thought filled catelyn with pride mingled with terror no matter how tightly i hold her i cannot keep her still i cannot keep her in my embrace forever read more ao3 tags catelynqueue text january 16 2022 160 notes arielseaworth no don t don t cut my hair ned loves my hair a storm of swords i often sent away sansa s maid so i could brush her hair myself a clash of kings she did not know how long her husband had been standing by the door ned had not made any sound to indicate his presence he was watching catelyn or rather watching her maid brushing her hair his grey eyes did not have that faraway look they too often did as if he was seeing events that took place years and years in the past and could not find his way back to the present their eyes met ned was the first to look away he glanced at the maid pointedly he wanted her to send the maid away catelyn surmised she grew alarmed had a raven arrived from riverrun carrying words of some calamity that had befallen the tullys had ned been silently watching her because he was preparing himself to break the news to her catelyn sent her maid away tell me ned tell me now whatever it is she urged him is it my father or edmure or perhaps the raven was from king s landing lysa her poor sister had something happened to lysa her apprehension surprised him everything is well my lady forgive me if i have alarmed you unduly catelyn then why did you want me to send my maid away ned he could not quite meet her gaze he took a deep breath as if preparing himself for some great ordeal to her surprise his next move was picking up the hair brush that her maid had set down keep reading tags catelynqueue text january 16 2022 44 notes arielseaworth catelyn lifted her face and ned kissed her her maimed fingers clutched against his back with a desperate strength as if to hold him safe forever in the shelter of her arms a game of thrones he yearned for the comfort of catelyn s arms a game of thrones catelyn remembered the first time ned came to her for comfort the first time he came to her to shelter in the safety of her arms came to her deliberately sought her out especially as opposed to burying his face in her arm because she was the closest one at hand when he woke up shivering from another dream of blood and grief about his dead sister read more ao3 tags catelynqueue text january 16 2022 48 notes anonymous asked ned cat and 8 a lie arielseaworth for the prompt ned catelyn a lie and when you have the truth what then some secrets are safer kept hidden some secrets are too dangerous to share even with those you love and trust a game of thrones he trained himself to think of it as a secret rather than a lie it was a secret which required a lie for its maintenance but the lie was not told for its own sake the lie was the means to an end not an end in and of itself the lie was a treacherous tool he was forced to employ to protect a life the lie came easily to his lips when he brought his sister s babe home to winterfell at times he had not even needed to proclaim jon as his bastard with his own tongue in certain eyes the very fact that jon shared a name with ned s beloved foster father was enough to confirm his identity it also helped that jon had the stark look of course ned shuddered to think what additional lies he would have had to invent to explain the presence of a babe with purple eyes and silver hair the lie did not come as easily to his lips when the lady wife he had wed and left behind at riverrun finally arrived in winterfell and yet he lied nonetheless lied to her within moments of her arrival with the voice and the face of a stranger she had not yet learned to decipher would catelyn see it the same way as a secret rather than a lie should she ever learn the truth she would be deeply hurt ned had no doubt of that deeply hurt at what she would perceive as his lack of trust in her at his lack of faith in her ability to keep the secret alongside him but lack of trust and faith was never the issue even before love had grown between them he knew enough of her worth to invest his trust and his faith in her a secret was a lonely thing ned had always known that he had prepared himself for that the greatest temptation to tell catelyn the truth did not come from his lonely nights he was only ever truly tempted when he saw how deeply his lie had wounded her he resisted the temptation each time silently asking her forgiveness for a lie he could never confess he would always remain unreconciled torn between the lie he had to tell and the effect it was having on the one and only woman he had ever loved perhaps that was his saving grace in the end though he wondered what good would that do catelyn his internal doubts his unvoiced undeclared remorse would that provide any consolation to her at all could it make up for the lie that had poisoned the foundation of their marriage and perhaps even tainted their love he could not say he yearned to ask her but he knew he never could tags catelynqueue text january 16 2022 46 notes arielbaratheon happy belated birthday dknc3 this was my father s solar said tully he ruled the riverlands from here wisely and well he liked to sit beside that window the light was good there and whenever he looked up from his work he could see the river when his eyes were tired he would have cat read to him a feast for crow catelyn read aloud lord elmo did not long enjoy his station as lord of riverrun he died forty nine days after the her father snorted enjoy his station what curious turns of phrases these maesters and archmaesters choose to employ enjoy i ask you as if it is all about fun and frolic being lord of riverrun catelyn paused raising her eyes from the book to meet her father s gaze they both had matching grins on their faces her father s remarks and commentaries when she was reading to him had always been her favorite part of the ritual he argued with the authors as if they were there in his solar mused aloud about the what ifs and could have beens and even inserted his own invented passages to fill the blanks left by the story or the historical account read more ao3 via

mourning did he speak of me at the end tell me true cat did he ask for me a storm of swords he whispered your name his sister had replied and edmure had been grateful for the lie a lie kindly told for his sake in the immediate aftermath of his father s death he wanted no needed to believe that lord hoster had called out for him at the end cat had given him that lie no that gift that precious gift knowing that he needed it needed it more than the truth at the time cat would have been screaming her son s name at the end robb s name she had watched him die the young man who had been the babe she proudly cradled in her arms at riverrun as she asked her skeptical brother would you like to hold your nephew her face had opened up like a flower in bloom when edmure s he s so ugly pronouncement about the babe was followed by two sets of grins on the uncle s face and the nephew s face both did you look for me at the end tell me true cat did you blame me for not saving your boy did he really wish for the truth could he live with the truth there was no cat to tell him a kindly lie when he needed it no cat to tell him the hard truth even when he resented it no cat no cat no cat not anymore not ever he could not mourn his sister he despaired he did not deserve to mourn her he thought tags catelynqueue photoset january 15 2022 157 notes arielbaratheon stubborn as river rocks that s what father used to grumble about edmure when he was a boy edmure took it as a jape he d pick up one rock after another asking our father which rock father this one or this one father always laughed in the end no matter how wroth he was with edmure to begin with ned smiled and you catelyn were you as stubborn as river rocks when you were a girl i did not have the luxury to be stubborn she had duties and responsibilities she had expectations to be met failures to be avoided she had the combined weight of a lord without his lady a castle without its mistress and two younger siblings without their mother resting on her shoulders i could not have done without you cat her father had often said that was his way of saying i love you cat could you do without me she asked ned no he replied his eyes never leaving hers not even for a day she kissed him the old doubt came rearing its head again whispering ever so softly w hat about her what about that boy s mother so she kissed him one more time a harder more lingering kiss this time i m with child again she told him resting her head on his chest overjoyed he kissed her forehead before saying a sister for sansa perhaps they will be as close as twins or as different as the sun and the moon catelyn said recalling her own girlhood and her own sister but no matter how similar or different they turn out to be each could not do without the other
