Summary
What happens to Queen Isabel after Richard is taken to Pomfret. The lyrics in and the inspiration for this entire fic is Bob Dylan’s “It Ain’t Me Babe”, which I’ve decided perfectly encapsulates Richard and the Queen’s relationship. Please check out this song, and consider giving this fic a kind word!

Summary
For a while, it was very simple. Henry knew his place. The answers were made clear to him. This is what fate is: A large hand grips your own and says 'Your cousin will be King. You will not. This is your life. This is your hand.' It’s all very simple. For a time.

Summary
“This is the state to which you should aspire to bring your lovely bride,” Robert instructed him.
“…Will you not…” began Richard in a small, breathless voice before trailing into silence. Robert left off touching him and gave him an encouraging look. He saw Richard swallow. “Will you not show me how?”
Now two years wed, Richard asks his ambitious favourite Robert de Vere for belated marital advice in an attempt to make an heir. Robert, thinking of the personal currency he might acquire by such tutelage of his king, is not about to refuse. To his astonishment he discovers that what Richard has really been yearning for goes considerably further than a lecture…

Summary
Kiss me, thought Richard quite desperately. He could feel the touch of Robert’s breath on his lips. Robert’s hand was clasping his elbow so carefully, keeping him in place with the light guidance a master horseman gives a colt. Just now Richard felt himself nothing more: robbed of his speech, of his power entirely, high-strung and quivering beneath the influence of this older and devastatingly confident man. How could Robert not see it?!
Through his growing yearning for his friend and subject Robert de Vere, young King Richard finally comes to understand the dark disapproval with which his elders mutter the word ‘favourite.’

Summary
“Is it not common to wish for a brief audience?”
“Spoken as if we are anymore companions. Do not toy with me, Bolingbrook. I will sustain no more insult to mine intellect.”
“Thou recognized my voice, did thou not? Surely you are not so enraged that memory has gone dim with the light in fatigued eyes. Have we reverted to strangers?”
