Summary
The Duke and Duchess of Buckingham are expecting their first child, the transcontinental railroad is still far from being built, a killer is on the loose in New York, women are fighting for the right to vote---and George and Bertha Russell are separated.
My, what is the world coming to.
~
COON: We don’t want to leave George and Bertha like this.
SPECTOR: We’d like to figure out a way to get them back to where they used to be, for sure. Although, I don’t know how that’s going to happen. Not that it can’t happen. I would love to see how they figure that out.🫡

Summary
Including “for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health,” he had said, perhaps, a hundred words to her since they met: a four word greeting with a bow when arrived at her parent’s house after weeks of written discussions and negotiations with her father; a six word inquiry before the day itself, “are you sure of this, Miss Connolly?” with her ensuing assurance met only with a sharp nod; and then, their longest conversation to date, his musings on the blasted weather. Yes, it certainly was an unusually chilly March.
The newly minted Mrs. Russell might as well have married a mute.
In which George and Bertha have an arranged marriage to start and come to find love during their first year together.

Summary
What if Ned wasn't beheaded in King's Landing and Catelyn didn't die at the Red Wedding? Just over two years ago I asked myself those questions, and with the encouragement of some wonderful people I started this story.
This story takes place entirely in the canon universe, diverging from GRRM's epic at two points--Ned's execution and Catelyn's murder at the Twins--and examines all the ways that the survival of these two people might have changed events both large and small in the world of Westeros. The ripples have far reaching consequences for many throughout the Seven Kingdoms, but at its heart, this is a story of two people, their marriage, their family, and the North.

Summary
This story was written as a birthday gift for the incomparable SomeEnchantedEve.
Young Catelyn Tully always understood her place in the world, and she's always done her duty. But after more than two years as Lady Catelyn Stark, she's discovered that honor and duty are not as straightforward as she once thought--and that nothing is straightforward when it comes to her feelings about Lord Eddard Stark and their marriage. She finds herself wondering more than ever if the two of them can build something more between themselves during a visit to the place she once called home and the people she has always called family.

Summary
"When Catelyn slips under the bed-covers, it is with a grateful sigh; and she sinks without resistance onto the mattress. It has been too long since she slept in a proper bed. Tomorrow, she would wake up comfortable and refreshed, Queen Catelyn Baratheon, loyal to her husband and king. Looking back is a dangerous slope and Catelyn dares not so much as peek over her shoulder. If she does, she might slip and fall and never find her way up. She must stand tall and look forward, or she may be lost."
AU where Hoster Tully takes a chance—and weds Catelyn to Robert Baratheon before he rebels. As her husband leads his court to Winterfell to make Ned Stark the Hand of the King, Catelyn tries her best to stay strong in the face of winter.
