Redemption is another theme. Cersei is often seen as a villain, and in some ned x cersei fanfics, Ned can be the catalyst for her redemption. It shows how a relationship can change a person for the better, or at least make them question their actions and motives.
One common theme is the exploration of power dynamics. Given their different positions in the original story, fanfics often play with how they interact in terms of power.
Love against all odds is also a theme. Since they are from opposing sides in the original, their relationship in fanfics can be about defying the odds and falling in love. For example, in some fanfics, they find common ground in their love for their families, which then blossoms into a deeper connection.
