Chapter Six

Chapter Five

Hmm… chapter five is interesting. I wasn’t expecting it, but I like it! Also because it foreshadows a little bit of the later Tyrion cameo scene, which I’ll probably be writing from Tyrion’s pov. Probably going to be done with chapter five in a couple of hours or so. And the interesting thing means the weird slash has resolved itself, thank you, Gods!

Someone moves into a new house. While waiting for their new wifi to be set up, they can’t help noticing that alongside all of their new neighbours’ locked wifi connections, there is an open connection with an innocent title. Maybe it calls itself “Free Wifi” or something. Maybe the person ignores it at first. So it gets creative. It changes its tag. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? (OPEN) JOIN THIS NETWORK (OPEN) WHILE YOU’RE WAITING FOR YOUR OWN WIFI TO BE SET UP (OPEN) Maybe it starts calling the person by name. Until, eventually, overcome and doomed by their own curiosity, they connect. What do they expect? The world to fall down? Did they use that less valuable laptop? The old one? You know the one, the one that it doesn’t matter if it gets compromised somehow? The one they never use for banking? Does it matter? They’re online. They can do all the usual things they do while online. They can read the news, go on twitter, talk to friends. They can view pornography. They can post any old filth that they want. Perhaps it’s surprising how quickly they trust this new connection, having run a couple of virus checkers and malware programs. There’s really nothing wrong with it. Maybe there’s something wrong with them. Possibly, they never actually made it to their new house, and their newly freed soul got lost somewhere on the way to the next place. The choices they make and the spaces they visit would determine which place that would be; heaven or hell. Obviously, I’m imagining it would be a lot more fun for the MC to be damned by themselves, but you could go the other way. It’s a microcosm (in a story) of the whole ‘free will’ thing, so you could make it as philosophical as you want, as satirical as you want, and clearly there’d be lots of lovely temptation going on left, right and centre that you could play with.

Ok… this is, without a doubt, the weirdest slash I have ever written… In that it appears mainly to consist of Clegane and Tormund seeing exactly how much of it they can stand before they have to kill each other. Like, violently. Which won’t happen because neither one of them wants to be the first to “break” as it were. Weird… It’s probably a good job there’ll only be tiny bits of it. I reckon the true relationship here is bromance over Brienne. That’s what I’m hoping for, at any rate. ETA: Having thought about it, they’re happy enough to share Brienne, but they don’t want to share themselves with each other, because they’re kind of in competition at the moment. So it’s not the slash, per se, but the weakening of their position within the threesome. Neither of them wants to give way, not one bit. Maybe it’ll be worth seeing how it all pans out later when things are a bit more relaxed and settled.

Chapter Four is here! If you read, have fun!

“I understand that if any more words come pouring out your cunt mouth, I'm gonna have to eat every fucking chicken in this room.” – The Hound That has to count. It mentions food.

lol…. well, I’ll see what I can do to improve the fighting over the course of this morning while you sleep. Then I’ll pm you later. Thank you – I’d really appreciate any help you can give me. At some point, I’m assuming these two will stop fighting, and start fucking... loving each other.

Gah… I think I might have to let this next chapter settle for a day or two, then look at it again. Chances are I might end up looking for a beta on this story. (I know, they’re like rocking horse shit) But, thing is: I am so rubbish at fight scenes, and this is really testing my limits. Something is not quite coming together, and I’m not sure what it is. In any 3plus story, there’s a hell of a lot of manouevreing into position that needs working on, and usually I enjoy all of that, but something isn’t quite right here. It’s not the fault of the characters. They’re definitely coming through loud and clear. I think maybe my powers of description are not quite up to it right now, sadly I keep ending up in that position where I have lots of dialogue, and I can see everything, but the actual shading in is a bitch. *sighs* I’ll give it a day or two.

Hi, ProphecyGirl I looked you up in the member database, and I won’t repeat what I see on here, but the email we have doesn’t match the one you quoted above, so it seems like we might still have your old one. Have you tried logging in with that?

Is The Hound a mad bastard? – Yes. Would he deliberately do something that was likely to endanger his health? – Yes. Would he do something that was likely to end in his death? – Yes. For the sheer anarchy of it? – Yes. Ok, then… *writes*

Thank you, Bronx! Oh, Brienne… I’ve got to say, without going the whole hog and writing from her point of view (which I might do, next chapter, having read this), she hasn’t really chosen anything. That reaction to Clegane was all about not allowing him to frighten her. No matter what it entailed doing, even if it meant touching him like that. He’d kind of backed her into a corner with his confession. Her thoughts on it ran along a well travelled path, just like a flow chart. How can I anticipate danger? How can I protect myself from it? Where is the power in this situation, and how do I get it? Do not show fear under any circumstances. In my original draft of the chapter, he said: “Are you frightened now?” but I changed it, because I felt it was a little bit too perfect to draw Brienne out, and I didn’t want Clegane cottoning on, lol. Aside from that, if our two boys think she’s on the same wavelength as they are, they’re sadly mistaken. She’s never thought of them in that way, and the only thing that’s turned her head is this new experience of pleasure, which has probably come as a bit of a surprise to her. And I’m talking about the kissing as well as the rest. If not more, actually… she’s really very happy with the kissing. That’s where she is, really. If Tormund does love her, he should start doing some of it. But, it occurred to me that she might also be quite easily seduced, especially if she doesn’t see it coming. She’s a traditionalist at heart, and a romantic, but I think she long ago realised she’s not “waiting” for anything, because nothing is going to come her way. Now it kind of has, against all the odds. And it’s not traditional, and it’s not exactly quite what she might dream of (Clegane has her number in that respect). I’m just not sure if she sees it for the rabbithole it is. Explore too far, and she will fall. Luckily for her, something is going to stop the boys from going all the way for a while. Something they end up seeing Tyrion about, which will be terribly amusing for him. And a great excuse for me to have Tyrion wandering around in my mental room of muses… yes! Sorry for the long reply, but the review deserved it. You always leave such wonderful responses. Now I’m back at work for a few days, so updates will slow, I’m afraid.

Seriously, this story is like that IX one… I have to possess it, and my pre-order is in too. I thought I’d have to wait until I get paid tomorrow, but they don’t charge for pre-orders until delivery… yes! Also, for UK peeps, the amazon uk link is here: Amazon UK So excited to read it again! In fact, I might have to find out all the the old beta docs, lol… I adored being your first test subject for this – it was so awesome! Mostly because I got to read every chapter before anyone else… For me it’s one of those stories. I’ll never forget it for as long as I live.

Lol… I think she did that to deflect any piss-taking that she though Tormund might be engaging in. She really doesn’t believe it’s possible for anyone to want her that way. She’s got a shock coming. I’m hoping she’ll be curious enough, and forget herself for just long enough, to realise she needs something else in her life besides oaths and violence. Because I think Clegane could do with that, too.. *g*

Ok… next chapter is here. And this is a bit longer, at over 3,500 words, but there’s the first bit of adult-rated stuff in it. I hope it works out for you, if you read it. Enjoy! Chapter Three

Here’s a question. Does Brienne masturbate? Or is she the kind of person who would consider that… a distraction? Really going to make all the difference, I think. Hmm.. I think I’m going to go with not. Because I can’t really see her taking time off from being Brienne of Tarth to do that and think about all the things she believe she can’t have. Like love. Or even sex (if she even could think in those terms). She just wouldn’t.

I have the dialogue for the Tyrion scene, and I am currently laughing my head off. Oh, Gods… how on earth will I decide whose pov to put this in? I feel like it would be hilarious as Clegane or Tyrion. Although I suppose with Tyrion, the reader gets to be on the inside of the joke in the scene, so in that case maybe it’s better written as Clegane. Maybe I’ll try both.

Thank you so much, Bronx! You are like a fan to the flame of my creative mind And yes, I kind of get the feeling Clegane is sick to the back teeth of having women be intimidated by him sexually (even those who pretend otherwise – he’s not an idiot). It also leads me to think he’s going to be awfully considerate of Brienne’s virginity, and I suspect there may be a short non-adult Tyrion cameo at some point in the future, where the two giants go seek out his advice, with lots of threats to ensure his silence, of course. That should be fun. I want to write Tyrion the way Clegane wants to do Brienne, lol. As for Tormund, they’re going to develop some kind of friendship/partnership, but the banter between them will develop and continue. There will be slash content, but whether it’ll be true slash content remains to be seen. As ever, I can only put the characters into adult situations and see how they respond to it. Wow, what a compliment! Thank you! To be honest, I never really envisioned myself writing for a fandom where most of the characters are knocking each other off. I tend towards those odd pairings, and well look I kind of found one. I’m not going to claim to have done oodles of research, or to be taking this entirely seriously. I’m seeing it as a useful stepping stone to getting my groove on again, so I’d appreciate having any canon mistakes pointed out to me for correction. But I really am enjoying hanging around inside Clegane’s head a bit. He’s fascinating. And I swear he has no fear, whatsoever.

Put this post in the wrong place yesterday, like an idiot. Just too excited to be writing something, I guess. And chapter two has landed, being as I’m now partway through chapter four… Chapter Two

And chapter two has landed, being as I’m now partway through chapter four… Chapter Two

So I’m at a point. Not a sex scene, but almost. And I’m getting a recurring theme coming from Clegane. And I have no idea if this is right, because it’s a million miles away from my experience, but it feels like it would be right. I mean, I’m a little person. I’m a hobbit. And just in general, I know how annoying it is that the rest of the world is bigger than me. Never mind when you apply it to relationships and such. Now a giant like Clegane, he keeps telling me the reason he likes her so much is that she’s so tall. They’re like equals. He feels like he can’t inadvertently hurt her, so to speak (and I get the sense that’s been a thing for him in the past). Anyway, that’s what’s coming across to me, so I’m kind of going to write him that way. The way he wants himself written. If Tormund was my pov character, I’d probably be getting the same kind of yammering from him too. I mean, he all but said it in that scene he had with Clegane.
