Summary
It could not be said for certain that Visenya Targaryen was a dreamer.
She did not see the future barreling towards her family faster than their dragons came diving from the skies; she did not see the past—all the things that once were, all the lives that lit up and burnt out just as quickly. She did not see the present, either, all the happenings across the sea and through the realms, all the truths that had not yet spread to all the little birds in King’s Landing.
No, Visenya only ever dreamed of a could have been world. A might have been life. A life she already lost the chance to live, a peace that would not reign, blood that would not stay burning in the veins of dragons.
She dreamt of what could never be.
She tore her heart in half wanting for it.
(In some lives: Baelon dies, Visenya lives, and dragons dance.)

Or, Visenya's coin fell the first time she looked to Aemond and saw only Baelon's face--edits completed, all further updates will be new--

Summary
"Will you keep your fancy clothes on, for me? / Can you bear a little longer to wear that leash? / My love, I swear by the air I breathe: / Sooner or later, you'll bare your teeth." - Joanna Newsom, "Monkey & Bear".
He does not have to question if she recognizes him or not. For a few moments he thinks she is debating turning on her heel and fleeing into the crowd. Then he watches her face transform from an uncertain young woman of twenty four, to something resembling the tenacious, take-no-prisoners ambulance driver who saved his life. She squares her shoulders, marches forward, suitcase in hand. Crams her hat under her armpit to free a hand to outstretch to him.
“Mr. Shelby,” she says. Her gloves, he notes, are brand new, possibly the most expensive item on her, which isn’t saying much. Spotless white. His hands are clean, but he can’t help but feel he’s marring them all the same. “Thank you for the tickets. And the letter.”
“Mrs. Shelby,” he says, which a better-humored man might have managed to make sound like a playful joke. At best, it sounds like a judge pronouncing a prison sentence. A life term.

“Watery Lane.” Hope corrected, she stood behind Anna and held the top of Anna’s arm. Anna knew this move, she had been doing it for ages, in the off chance something happened Hope would pull Anna behind her and take any blow herself.
“Why are you looking for there?” he asked, caution in his voice.
Hope stepped from behind her and took her hand, tightly. “Were looking for her mother.”
“And who are you?” he said directly to Anna.
“Anna Gray.”Hope Bishop (OC) saves Anna Gray from going to Australia, taking her home. This changes the lives of many people in the Shelby family, not just Polly's. But Tommy's too.
