    Summary

    A tourney stand looms up ahead out of the mist, a knight on a black stallion rides ahead of her and suddenly she knows, with a deep, clear certainty what her purpose is, here. She has read of this field, this day. She knows the ill luck that followed it, the hope of a fractured realm extinguished with a mace. She urges Valour on, draws abreast with the knight and he turns to her. A black shield, a red dragon. He raises his visor. “You ride for the Hedge Knight?” His voice echoes strangely in the helmet. He is more handsome than she expected. She nods. “I would know your name, ser.”

    “I am a true knight, your Grace.” she says, and passes the Prince, knowing she must answer to him at some point, or else disappear, as fast as she is able.

    Ser Brienne of Tarth, Commander of the Kingsguard, is sent by her King on a ride one misty morning in full tourney armour. Sent ninety years back, to the point at which some say it all went wrong, she has a rare and precious chance to make things right. Even if it costs her her foolish heart.

    Summary

    When asked in the past by curious sons of what happens when a person dies, Baelor Targaryen sat them down and patiently explained that the Faith of the Seven teaches them that the righteous are blessed in the Seven Heavens as long as they lead a virtuous life and repent for any sin committed. He had never questioned it himself.

    Falling to a blow by his brother's mace while defending what was right, even against his own family, Baelor should have been feasting in the Father's golden hall and waiting until the moment he would be reunited with his family. That did not happen.

    Instead, the former Prince of Dragonstone woke up far from home and everyone he knew, though the faces he found himself among were not unfamiliar to him. But what does it mean to find yourself in the pages of your family's own history books?

    Summary

    What if Maekar was a little more cognizant and a little more tired of his sons’ shit, so he stepped in to stop the trial of the seven before it happened? 

    Or: a duo of very thorough spankings.

    Summary

    Daeron Targaryen struggles with guilt over his own lie: the accusation he has made against a hedge knight to save his own skin from his father’s wrath.

    When Egg, the only person who still sees the good in him, urges him to act to prevent the Trial of Seven, Daeron agrees. The two brothers decide to seek justice with their uncle Baelor.

    However, he does not expect that this will also lead to a confrontation with their father.

    What comes to light during the night-time conversation in the Hand of the King’s chamber shatters every carefully maintained illusion the Targaryen family has held about itself.

    Summary

    In a universe where, sometimes, first contact with a new person can make marks bloom visible on your skin & the forming strong, permanent bonds, Duncan the Tall has only ever had a single soulmate, with their mark long faded from his skin. The tourney at Ashford will be full of surprises for the young Hedge Knight, as he somehow keeps falling into collecting soulmates, platonic and romantic, everywhere he goes.
    These bonds forever alter the course of Westeros' history forever, saving his soulmates lives and pushing them off the cliff into character growth and romance.

     

    (Dunk becomes the Targaryen's pet knight who they are all a COMPLETELY NORMAL amount of obsessed by)
