Tales from the Jonsa crypt 🎃
I’m not active in the fandom much anymore but I was saying yesterday how this time of year always brings that rush of Jonsa back to my heart.
I’d had the entire summer of 2016 to watch and rewatch season 6 and reread the books after that and kept circling back to the way Jon and Sansa made me FEEL whenever I saw them together and what I pictured for their arcs in the show and books.
When that wasn’t enough, I found shippy videos on YouTube and then started reading and eventually writing fic that fall. By Halloween, I was fully immersed, checking the ao3 tag multiple times a day and spinning out chapters to share with a friend.
I wouldn’t find the courage to post my works for a few more weeks but I’m forever thankful I did. Not only did Jonsa eventually lead me to original writing but I was blessed meeting so many Jonsa fans and creators , many of whom became dear friends.
So, this is me just rambling but also wishing any Jonsa folks who dig this up, new and old fans alike, a Happy Halloween and lots of forehead kisses 😘 🎃
