“Then I reckon we’ve just discovered both our levers. You’re too honorable. I’m too prideful. If we were not indifferent to each other but had been Kanlys we would have been easily plotting each other’s early demise. But look at us instead. Dancing in our mutual indifference, rather than trying to kill each other.”“My Mother also told me you are very eloquent,” he replied. “She did not exaggerate. You have a way with words, Princess.”
“Why do you call me Princess?” she shot back. “I’m your Empress now.” She paused and smiled sardonically. “In name only.”

Summary
After everything that's happened, Jon wants to move on from the past and live out his days as Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. After everything that's happened, Sansa still loves Jon, but does he feel the same? He never accepts her invitations to visit. Perhaps it's time she moves on. She does have to marry, after all, and have heirs. But then something brings him back to Winterfell. And he keeps returning, keeping an eye on her while also unknowingly keeping her love for him alive when he’s determined to keep his vows this time. His vow to protect her, aye, but also to remain Lord Commander, take no wife, father no children. As a kinslayer, that shouldn't be too hard. Who'd want him, anyway?
A post s8 story where she’s deeply in love and desperately trying to hide it while he’s deep in denial and desperately trying to keep his distance.

Summary
Robb knows duty, he learned it standing at his father’s knee and sitting on his mother’s lap before he had a concept of what it actually meant. He was born to be Lord of Winterfell, Warden of the North. Kingship was never supposed to be on the table for him. But his family has been torn apart one too many times, and war seems endless; his only option now is to burrow in for the long winter, no matter the cost.
(And if that cost is his life? Well it’s a calculated risk he took the day they laid that weighty bronze circlet on his brow, naming him King.)
--
Or;
When the Tyrells switch allegiance before Robb Stark can be killed by the Lannisters, it only serves to stoke the fires of the wars in Westeros, the after effects rippling across the realm for years to come.
