    Summary

    After the Battle for the Seven Kingdoms, Jaime Lannister sailed east, hoping to find peace and some manner of freedom from his past sins. Now, ten years later, he finds himself once more in Westeros, on the shores of Tarth, looking for absolution from the one person he couldn’t leave behind.

    A story of second chances, the healing powers of communication, compassion, forgiveness, and love.

    --

     

    Brienne is exactly as he remembers and very different. She’s just as tall and broad and homely, but she’s softened around the edges. Then again, regular meals and peacetime will do that. The only evidence of her reaction to him is a slight pause in her stride across the courtyard.

     

    “Ser Jaime,” she greets him with a nod.

     

    “Ser Brienne.” He bows deeply. “Or would my lady be more appropriate?”

     

    “Ser will do between us.”

     

    Seeing her is more than he imagined and he imagined it being quite overwhelming.

    Summary

    An alternate universe version of A Storm of Swords where Jaime is a vampire. Brienne of Tarth is tasked with escorting him back to King's Landing in exchange for Sansa Stark. Everything is the same, except that everything is also different.

    “Why, Cat, I didn’t think you cared.” His voice is droll, his eyes flickering between Lady Catelyn and Brienne. “I haven’t had virgin blood in so long. My mouth is positively watering for a taste.”

     

    Brienne can’t prevent the hot blush that floods her cheeks. The vampire’s eyes practically twinkle.

     

    “She may be as ugly as an aurochs,” he says, pinning Brienne in place with a look, a deadly predator even leashed as he is. “But she blushes deliciously.”

    Summary

    Jaime is nursing a glass of champagne and watching his target carefully when a flash of blonde hair on a tall form catches the corner of his eye and heat rushes through him before he can control it. It's not her, he tells himself firmly. It's never her these days, not for almost two years. He's not letting himself get his hopes up again. For all he knows, she's dead.

    Summary

    The bar is dimly lit and hazy with smoke, the jukebox slightly too loud and the people all slightly too beaten down. Not the place someone would go for anything but getting anonymously drunk in a corner and making a bad decision on purpose for once.

    It's exactly what Brienne's looking for.
