why is the soundtrack in this film so obnoxious
sansa stark , novel & headcanon based - timeline / era flexible for interactions . i personally did not watch past sansa's marriage to r*msey b*lton on the show , and have no interest in any television based storylines. generally speaking, i will always find a work around to settle sansa into nearly any fantasy / historical / medieval based verse as is desired; for the sake of brevity, i will try to list them out below as they are created & thought of ! faceclaim is hannah dodd for most things - any aged up interactions will have a different face, though i am not yet settled on who it'll be.
house of the dragon / dance verse — the daughter of lord bennard stark, raised alongside cregan at winterfell as her father served as his regent. when her father and brothers were imprisoned for bennard's inaction and refusal to relinquish the lordship of winterfell back to cregan, sansa was made to swear fealty to her cousin, ever promising her loyalty to cregan over her father, in exchange for being allowed to continue her life as a highborn lady within the walls of the only home she had known -- with cregan acting as her intermediate to eventually wed her off, allowing him a bargaining chip he had not previously been given.

@sickfcks said : [ OVERSTIMULATED ] sender repeatedly making receiver orgasm for orange & anna .
she should've known by the look in his eyes over dinner, she realizes – that he'd had something up his sleeve, had something planned for them tonight that wasn't their normal routine of crawling into bed to watch a movie. no, this was something else entirely, although their bed was still involved . . . albeit now a mess beneath her trembling body, her thighs pressed to either side of his head, her hands curled into soft blonde hair as his tongue continues to work against her clit.
“james.”
drawled out low and heavy, as if the weight of his name on her lips expands past the amount of energy she has left in her body; it might've, too, given she's lost count of just how many times he's unraveled her here, so sensitive now that it takes little more than a few delicate flicks of his tongue and a shift of his fingers curling against her g-spot to send her panting and pulling at his hair. surely she hadn't earned this – hadn't done anything so lovely to deserve him, and yet . . .
“baby, please, i can't –” can't anything, really, shifting on soaked sheets beneath her body, unable to tell what was sweat and what was her. a tremor through her body as she pulls harder at his hair, willing him to stop for the moment, but it's far too late for that now, another gentle caress of his fingers inside of her and she's falling again, body overtaken by another orgasm that washes over her. head thrown back against pillows once more, his name falling from her lips in a succession of barely audible breaths.
she can hear the warning in his voice – the low timber that tells her to watch it, if she knows what's good for her. problem is, cora's never really known what's good for her; if she had, she might not have ended up here with him – might have learned her lesson by now, might have realized that hotel rooms with men treading closer and closer to being old enough to be her father held just as much trouble as the boys closer to her in age. but she's never been very good at listening, either.
a deep inhale before she spins on her heels, turning ‘round to face him, dark eyes that linger on his face like a wild animal that’s been caught in a trap. “ she called you sweetheart seven times. ” jealousy's always been her sticking point; always been the nasty, lingering feeling that wells in her stomach each time someone so much as breathed in the direction of anything she'd deemed hers. he was no different. “ saw her put her hand on your shoulder three times, too. that's not hospitality. ”
jaw set, clenching as cora hears his words – hears the threat within them, and instead of slinking away, instead of allowing the moment to die down between them, crosses her arms over her chest. an expectant look settled onto her features, daring him to finish the statement – daring him to make a decision that'd leave them both upset for weeks to come.
“ you want someone who's quiet and demure, you're in the wrong fucking room. ”
this is the game they play , of late. this back - n - forth that adds grey to his beard and another set of wrinkles at the corners of dark eyes. it makes roman feel his age , quiet regard for her enough to silence most , most days. but cora isn't most. she's far from the norm , her lips taking on a pout he wonders the authenticity of. for a moment , at least. one just fleeting enough he fails to stifle the groan when it comes , shaken by frustration.
❝ i’m not jealous, who said i’m jealous? ❞
" never said you were , " is quick , a bite that warns her as sure as it does himself in its echo. insists he calm down. loosen the fists that formed , defensively , on instinct. because her fingers know how to coax his nerves. because he's made this mistake again and again.. wound up with her in one more hotel room , listening to a tirade that can't quite settle as it drops in his stomach. " said you showed your ass back there. " to a waitress who was doing her job. to the prying eyes of several onlookers who all whispered their quiet judgment as they left. " an' you wonder why i don't take you out more often. " advertise a relationship that wobbles day in , day out. what breathes shallow breaths and always feels one false move from capsizing. " got me fucked up , you think that's gonna fly. " | @petitmortes
❛ We forgive each other then? ❜ for Anna from Orange @sickfcks
interview with the vampire (1994) sentence starters , @sickfcks
her mouth wrings together for a moment, nose wrinkling – ice cream still smudged along her cheek from seconds previous, where his cone had accidentally dipped from his mouth to smear across her face. consideration for the truce he was calling, her own saccharine sweet treat dangling in her fingers, mere centimeters away from staining his beard with red velvet ice cream.
“ do we? ” she asks, quirk of her brow, threat hanging in the low tone of her voice, before her hand moves – shifting forward to smear ice cream along his jaw, a rolling giggle emitted from her lips not long after.
it was easy with him, it always had been. like curling into her favorite blanket to watch a movie on a sunday afternoon – simple, without the need to feel worried or terrified of what came after. the after was as it had been for months now, anna shifting closer to run her tongue along the ice cream that stains his face, knowing the blush that will settle along his cheeks will only make him look all the more handsome in the afterglow of the sun, before her lips graze against his; soft, sweet, sticky.
“ maybe now we do. ”
