    Summary

    Summary: Brienne Tarth, Ph.D., is lucky to get even a one-year position at a small college deep in the Riverlands. Unfortunately, the man who represents everything she hates about the devaluation of scholarly expertise is there too. And she has to work with him. She hates everything about this until she doesn’t. Then things get complicated.

    [Note: this is what happens when a gnc survivor of the academic precariat falls embarrassingly into a whole lot of feelings about this ship (and gets enabled into writing by a friend.) This fic was going to be short, and it was going to have plot, and now it’s just roughly 30k of mutual pining. With a little plot on the side. As a garnish. ETA: 40k? ETA: 50k?? ETA: 50ish. Ish.]

    Summary

    317 AC.

    Three hundred and seventeen years after Aegon’s Conquest, and only seventeen since Daenerys Targaryen set foot on Dragonstone and set the world aflame. The wolves still howl in the North, the roses still bloom in the Reach, and the queen rules from the Iron Throne, though peace comes only by fire.

    The Lannisters are mostly gone, their debts paid in blood and ash. Only Lord Tyrion endures, bound to the realm he built and the queen who would see him undone.

    In the Tower of the Hand stands Galladon Storm, the Bastard of Tarth, grandson to the Evenstar. A red-and-smoke sword hangs at his side, a lion’s shadow at his back. He was raised in secrecy and crowned by chance, but the gods are not finished with him yet.

    Beyond the walls of King’s Landing, whispers linger...of a golden knight who would not burn, and a woman in blue who would not break. Some say they died long ago. Others swear they ride still, where no songs dare follow.

    Post–Jaime I, A Dance with Dragons.

    A tale of war, love, and the long memory of vows kept past death.

    Summary

    Three hundred years ago, the Great Houses built spaceships, abandoning everyone else to the world's decades-long seasons, never expecting the remaining humans to survive. Those left behind – the earthers, as they came to be called – raced to the edge of extinction and then pulled themselves back, working together with the earth until the seasons settled into the manageable, months-long cycles they should have been all along.

    Now, generations out from the ships' departures, the Lost Ones have come back, looking for safe haven. In order to stay, they must first spend a year with an earther family on the planet, before deciding whether to remain or leave again, this time forever. Brienne Tarth and her father are one of many to take in a family of Lost Ones to live with them for the year.

    Their assigned family? The Lannisters.
