majere4 chapter 1 . 11/15/2024 " A farmer found a boy in the river, tangled up in tree roots, drowned and gone. " Ramsay taken out this early has huge implications for the future... that it is done in such an 'accidental' way removes any repercussions. This is the first time the story has made me sit up and take notice, and I'm quite impressed by how subtle the 'magic' works. " Eventually they gave up on the door and broke down a wall. Father carried out Lady Catelyn's body himself. Others brought out the septon and the septa. ... Catelyn Tully had lived in the North for two and ten years and made herself no friends at Winterfell who weren't originally southron. " Whoa... I can definitely see how Catelyn was a right bitch to Jon, but killing her definitely derails a huge number of plans... including any thought of Ned leaving the North! " No, Father was not worthy of emulation. He rarely saw a problem that he bothered to fix. The North was filled with problems, and nothing came from Winterfell. No answers, no help, no requests, no demands, no comments. Nothing. Dead stump. Father was as good as one. " I can definitely see his PoV, tho the North rallied to Robb's call quickly enough. Maybe that's just their bloodlust? Looking over my comments before posting, I am reminded about the Other stumps... what an analogy! " Jon thought about that again. He got five hits in on Ser Barristan. That was amazing even though he lost. " Bad Arse is what that is! " Only Ser Barristan remained and he'd been thrown from the Kingsguard. That all happened when the king was attempting to kill the three children. The king managed to murder Joffrey Waters, but Ser Barristan arrived in time to prevent the killing of Myrcella and Tommen. " Fuuuu...dge! I hope Ser Barristan and the young Myrcella and Tommen stay with the Starks - at least until the Old Lion finishes his war... what an unholy mess! It said three or four were killed, would that have been one of the Queensguard? Wow, what a shakeup! So, I'd love to know what Ser Barristan found. Would he be able to help the 'prince in exile'? Would he be able to save Dany? How will they respond to the news of the growing power - Dragon Borne Power - in Westeros? " His older self seemed to expect him to kill again. He was racking up quite a body count, between the Bolton bastard, the Tully bitch, and a rather large number of Lannisters. Jon would deal with what that meant later. He would endure. " I like that he's introspective about killing. Thoughtful, but aware of the necessity. Older Jon's assurance of what kind of things the bolton bastard was capable of doing is sure to steady his heart on his death. He'll have to be hard-hearted for what is to come. That said, with as many individual changes as Jon has made, there must be dozens of new 'timelines' that have been created since Jon started using the Book. " Robb cried out, but he swung his blunted blade into Greyjoy's upper throat and jaw. The blood flowing everywhere told Jon that Robb's attack had been true. Jon dropped his equipment and ran over to where Robb was wobbling on his feet. He was trying to get the blade out. Not good, it was deep enough inside Robb to remain there. " then it continues on to show Robb is the one injured, which I guess is what happened. Reading the first part however, it is clearly Theon, not Robb, who is hit in the throat. " Jon explained what he'd seen of the fight, and Robb's response, and what Luwin did. " Again, this is confusing. HOLY FUCK, Jon just dream-whacked the mockingbird! *gibbers in amazed... something* Talk about resetting the board! " after Theon Greyjoy stabbed Robb and died in consequence: " Ah, I had wondered what happened to reek. Well, no details, but at least his fate is known. " Jaime's death sent Tyrion into many pubs and places of ill repute. I'm told he tumbled down some stairs when he was trying to carry three bottles of wine." " Yeah, right. " Jon wanted to speak to his Nuncle Benjen " "Nuncle?" I thought this was a typo, then... " "So you have met more than one?" Nuncle Aemon said. " and... 23 more. So, what's a Nuncle? " Jon sat down on the warm sands next to his nuncle. Within moments, Jon had a few hatchlings surrounding him, demanding attention. A few were even chirping at Ghost. He consented to groom them with his tongue. " This is a picture I would pay to have! " Jon had to wonder if Robb really did all that. Or if Jon would greendream in the future and use some kind of compulsion on Robb. That was stupidity Jon still couldn't comprehend. " *stunned* Well, Lord Bran Stark will rule much more wisely, that is to be sure! But the idea of not knowing if you will be responsible for compelling your own cousin to kill himself... Yuck! " He had completed the destiny that the older Jon had alluded to. He just hoped he had made the right choices, though they were more harsh than fair. " Tho 'fair' in Westeros demands harshness, he learned that very well. All in all, this was less of a "Gamer" story and more of a "Magical Quest". Regardless, it was very well developed, well told, and wonderfully entertaining. Thanks so much for sharing your time and talent! |
Vet7Years chapter 1 . 8/8/2024 I really enjoyed this. Very different from the normal trope on here. Definitely looking forward to reading more of your stories. |
Guest chapter 1 . 8/3/2024 it's quite obviously a power fantasy. And a good one. It's still missing an epilogue though. |
yourfoxydope chapter 1 . 6/18/2024 cringe shit |
Guest chapter 1 . 5/5/2024 Retard OOCness, written b a talentless Whoreson. Stop writing, you piece of garbage. And please, fuck of, rapeapologist cunt. Jump of a cliff |
avatarjedi chapter 1 . 4/9/2024 This is, without a doubt, one of the best fics I’ve ever read. I enjoyed this a ton! I would love a sequel of just Jon and Bran learning all the magic possible! |
0DINS0N chapter 1 . 3/15/2024 Enjoyed reading this, thanks! |
Asuki -The Infinite Archive chapter 1 . 3/13/2024 this feels less of a Jon Snow Story and more of a Power Trip fantasy of an SI in Jon snow Skin... Great story overall but still doesnt feel less of a SI Power Fantasy Fic. |
Khatix chapter 1 . 1/25/2024 Great story, but should have broken it up into chapters and could use an epilogue to show who Jon ended up with. |
Batros940 chapter 1 . 12/15/2023 Very good. I wish you had broken this up into several chapters to make it easier to get to certain parts without having to carefully scroll through to make sure you don't skip passed where you left off. Heck with how much is here could easily have been ten or more chapters. |
lepetitereina chapter 1 . 11/8/2023 This is the most amazing magical GOT story I've read 11/10! |
emilsky2001 chapter 1 . 10/27/2023 Manifique. Brilliant |
hannie-k chapter 1 . 10/23/2023 Wow! You took this what-if and didn’t just run with it, you sprinted way across the finish line and then some. This version of Jon is so badass. I’m wondering now what has become of Dany in Essos? She’s bound to hear stories of the new Westeros under a Targaryen rule with thousands of dragons. I’d love to witness that meeting. Would she still call herself the mother of dragons that don’t know their origins, compared to Jon the true Dragonlord? |
TBearTech chapter 1 . 8/30/2023 Cool OC story... Thank you for writing. and Finishing. -C |
netesy1 chapter 1 . 8/29/2023 I didnt want this to end. |
