This haunting ficlet, Abiding Fortitude by Hollandoodle and read by SlatesOwl, is a post-Battle of the Blackwater AU were Sansa Stark has escaped King’s Landing with Sandor “The Hound” Clegane. During the days, he is rough and callous and barks insults while she struggles with learning the parts of life never taught. But during the nights, emotional armor comes off and care emerges.
