History Fanfic / GreyjoyAllaBreve

* IdiotBall: Stannis grabs it when he decides to impress a Northern trading ship, after losing much of his fleet in an attack on King's Landing, with the excuse that, since the ship serves Robb, it is crewed by traitors. All he gets is a Northern captain, several dead men (as the Northern crew obviously objected to being forced to fight for Stannis) and a now rotten reputation that will prevent any ship from coming to trade with Dragonstone.

* MythologyGag: A wedding is attacked by a group of musicians hired by the Freys. [[spoiler:It is Robb's wedding to Margaery Tyrell, the attack was organized by Joffrey with some prodding by Littlefinger, and the result is a large botch that gives a large propaganda win to Robb and his allies. It becomes nicknamed "The Steel Wedding". As extra points, Walder Frey is ''incensed'' that the attack happened.]]

* MasterOfDisguise: Meera Reed, who can disappear from everyone's sight in ''seconds''.

* MythologyGag: A wedding is attacked by a group of hired musicians, brought in by the Freys.

As extra points, Walder Frey is ''incensed'' that the attack happened.]]

* BadBoss: Joffrey, to the utmost degree. When Lancel tells him they need gunpowder, as the men need it for training in the use of weapons and to get used to the noise, Joffrey only latches on the last part... and proceeds to blow one soldier's brains, telling the others that anyone that runs away will have their wives and daughters raped and sold into slavery.

** Ramsay Snow becomes known as "[[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast The Crimson]] [[TheDreaded Fucker]]".

* EpicFail: Jaime tries to kidnap a female coach driver to get to King's Landing. He gets a shot of pepper spray to the face, a GroinAttack with a steel toed boot and imprisoned by the Starks. Tyrion barely manages to not laugh at his brother's misfortune.

* {{Hypocrite}}: For all that he claims the lords and ladies of Westeros pay no attention to the servants and smallfolk like he does, not even him is immune to this. [[spoiler:For example, he completely ignores Tywin's cupbearer's (Arya) presence and latches on another theory of how Tywin Lannister got killed.]]

* RightUnderTheirNoses: Arya successfully pretends to be a lowborn girl from White Harbor for ''months'' while serving as Tywin Lannister's cupbearer [[spoiler:and got away with killing him - with a little help from the Hound]]. WordOfGod is that, while Tywin could have found out who she really was - her disguise was not perfect and there were a few holes in her story - he did not want to because his pride would not allow him to admit he might have been tricked by a girl that is in her very early teens.

* AudioErotica: Roose Bolton, at least when he sings. Even Catelyn Stark is affected.
