    Summary

    Rhaenyra has been in love with Alicent since before she knew what love was. And by all the gods, she is going to show her “best friend” how much she loves her with the grandest romantic gesture she can think of!
    . . .
    Too bad it all goes horribly awry.

    Or:
    A series of campy, disconnected pieces of fluff wherein Rhaenyra tries to do something sweet, fails miserably, but Alicent falls in love with her anyway.

    Summary

    "You're angry I've come." Queen Alicent stepped back, forcing Ryaenrya to drop her hand.

    She smiled with crescent-moon eyes. "I could never be, my queen."

    "Speak plainly," Alicent said. Whispered, "Please."

    When had she last said that word? Ryaenyra thought back – when she'd still been called a friend, surely, and staus had been a concept not fully grasped. Ryaenya hadn't realized her power until she was the one who had to say the pleading words instead.

    "I don't appreciate being spoken for, you know this," she said, aiming for a lightness untouched for years. It was like reaching into a dark cavern within her heart.

    it would be jarring how easily she slipped back into the casual banter shared by friends. There had been nothing but black between them for many moons.

    Wine, Ryaenyra thought in absent wonder.

     
    An AU in which episode 4 goes a little differently.

    Summary

    “I gave you the opportunity for honesty,” her voice is small, wounded, “and you betrayed me.”

    At this, Rhaenyra looks alarmed and then incensed.

    “If it’s deception you accuse me of Alicent, you need only look in the mirror—you began concealing yourself from me long before I ever thought to do the same. You claim you wished me no ill-will but I struggle to believe that.”

    Or;

    Alicent and Rhaenyra speak privately after Rhaenyra's wedding to Laenor. The truth between them is laid bare and they are both changed in the aftermath.

    Summary

    "What do you want me to say, Rhaenyra, that I want to runaway, across the narrow sea, and eat cake with you? Of course I'd rather runaway with you. I've dreamed of fleeing with you every night since your father's announcement. But that is only fantasy. We must live in the real world."

    ----

    As Alicent's nuptials approaches, the riff between Rhaenyra and Alicent deepens. While Rhaenyra's anger boils, Alicent finds herself consumed with unwanted thoughts of her best friend, and a borrowed dream of running away across the Narrow sea to eat nothing but cake. But that is just a fantasy...right?
