Winged Lions and Maned Wolves
is a A Song of Ice and Fire fanfic that has Cersei Lannister marry Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark marries Jaime Lannister.
Tropes that appear in this fanfic:
- Death by Adaptation: Brandon Stark killed Littlefinger.
- Hourglass Plot:
- Jaime cuckolded his King in the books/tv show. Here, he was cuckolded by Rhaegar before Jaime married Lyanna, leading to the possibility that Rhaegar is Jon's real father.
- Which turns out to not the case, not only did Lyanna make sure to drink moon tea as soon as she was able, but in the sequel, Jon's twins have inherited Jaime's green eyes.
- In Spite of a Nail: A couple things still happen despite Robert's Rebellion not occurring.
- Ned marries Catelyn and succeeds his father as Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North.
- Though its later revealed to be impossible, the possibility of Jon being Lyanna and Rhaegar's son.
- I Want Grandkids: While Jon is sick with the pox, Tywin writes a pointed letter to Jaime and Lyanna, stating that they'd better have another heir or he'd be forced to take action. After that, they start laying together again.
- Spared by the Adaptation: Lots of characters survive past what would have been Robert's Rebellion, such as Rhaegar, King Aerys, Rhaella, Brandon and Rickard Stark.
