I loved putting Raylan Givens in Sunnydale.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Wait, what? I need to read that.
It's long, and no ending has really felt right, but it starts here.ETA: posted link in next post.
Vonnie, do we share a ship? I love sharing a ship with people.
I thought everyone shipped Jaime/Brienne! Well, OK, there is no "everyone" when it comes to fandom, but every other ship on that show is Death and Dysfunction Theater or Special Train to Hell, often both. I like angst and Wrong-and-Hot as much as anyone, but after a while, it gets a bit relentless, you know? Jaime/Brienne seems like a beacon of (relative) sanity among all the muck. I didn't go out looking to read fic about these two, but sometimes I come across a fic rec and go traipsing down a rabbit hole for a while. :)
Um, I am on Part 18 of Long Ago and Far Away. Thank you Vonnie!

Sadly, no. There are people, in fact, who very much anti-ship them (which often co-occurs with shipping Cersei/Jaime)

Yes me! Sanity and hotness. While I know Brienne is supposed to look ugly or large or what have you, I have never not found that actress attractive, and her with Nicolaj is just smokin' for me.
...so I went into the pairing tag on Jaime/Brienne, and, well. Can someone please explain to me why Sandor Cligane and Sansa Stark are a thing?
There is, scarily enough, canonical support for that ship (moreso in the books, but I'm guessing you're a show person?) Starting even in book 1, when he escorts her back to the castle after the feast and tells her his tragic backstory, and then he's one of the few people to protect her at all, particularly from Joffrey, and then there's the scene during the Battle of the Blackwater.
I don't ship it because it's more than a little creepy, but it's not a crack ship.
