Summary
Tamacti Jun insists Maghra make a choice.
[Follow up to my story "Ashes". Major spoilers for the series. Set about a year after the end of season 3.]~Over time, his concern for her, as a daughter of the king, had evolved into respect for a ruler struggling to do the right thing, and finally, as admiration for the woman who faced tragedy with fortitude. It had not taken long for them to rebuild the trust previously damaged by her sister’s deceit. He had been content with that. Until she made the offer—or perhaps it had been an order—more explicit.
“I don’t want to be alone,” she had said, during the first winter after her husband had died.
That which is frozen feels no pain, but something in him had begun to thaw during that bitterly cold season, and the memory of all he lost grew sharper with each warm encounter.~

Summary
Tamacti Jun visits Baba Voss in the Pennsa prison
[Set during S3, between eps 2 and 3.]~“I wasn't expecting to meet you like this…again,” Tamacti said, remembering how their first real introduction had occurred through the steel bars of a Trivantian dungeon.
“My wife is angry,” Baba explained.
The queen had ordered her own husband to be imprisoned after his assault on the Trivantian delegation. Luckily for everyone, Baba had gone willingly—no casualties had been reported. When questioned about it, Maghra would only say it was for his protection.
“Maybe she's afraid…of losing you once more?” he proposed.
“Mmn,” Baba grunted. “Or maybe she wishes I had not come back.”~

Summary
Harlan asks a favor from Tamacti Jun.
[Set during S3, between eps 3 and 4.]~His musing was interrupted by the sound of footsteps in the hallway, followed by Tamacti’s signature snarling outside the door.
“It smells like the Lavender Road! What’s Harlan doing here?”
The Lord of Pennsa grinned, having purposely worn a generous amount of what he hoped would be his most offensive cologne.
“Ah!” Harlan exclaimed, sweeping back through the doorway. “I’d recognize that delightful death-rattle anywhere!”~

Summary
In the aftermath of the battle of Pennsa, Queen Maghra seeks answers from Tamacti Jun.
[Set at the end of S3 ep 8. Major spoilers for the end of the series!]~Whatever happened after the day she left him for dead had made the years in his voice more apparent, but Tamacti Jun still offered what he always did—something solid to stand by in times of turmoil. Inviting anyone to partake in the ritual of her grief felt strange, but she had done it all the same, prying him out of the palace early in the morning, before some military necessity claimed him.~

Summary
Tamacti gets a late night visitor.
[Set during S2 ep 7.]~“I offer my service, General,” she said, putting a hand on his knee.
“You are already in my service,” he said coldly.
The hand slid along his leg. “As a woman,” she clarified unnecessarily.
He grabbed her arm tight enough to bruise. “I don't recall asking for that.”
“I hear it in the words you do not say,” she said confidently.~
