    Summary

    After his execution at the steps of the Sept of Baelor, Ned Stark unfortunately wakes up in the middle of his worst memories instead of his afterlife. Forced to wade through some of his most unpleasant experiences, Ned begins to realize that the facts that he built his world around crumble like sand at the slightest provocation. Faced with a morality crisis that could change the events of Robert's Rebellion, Ned embarks on a journey that will change the course of history. Whether that be for better or for worse is something that only Ned can decide.

    Summary

    Little is known about Viserra Targaryen. She was the most beautiful of Queen Alysanne Targaryen's daughters, a vain, wild, and ambitious girl. When she was fifteen, her mother betrothed her to Lord Manderly, a man old enough to be her grandfather. No one was willing to speak against the match, so she tried to seduce her widowed brother, Baelon and gain her freedom. Unsuccessful and resigned to her fate, Viserra snuck out with her friends for one last night of laughter. On their way back, there was an accident, and the Princess fell from her horse and died.

    Or: Viserra did not die that night, and instead, the Fourteen Flames showed her the horrors of the future. Forewarned, she will stop at nothing to protect those she loves.

    Next chapter by October 17th (plus minus a few days)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    There are few fics I fall immediately and irreversibly in love with. Taking some of the most minor and forgotten characters in the Targaryen dynasty, the author manages to weave a beautifully subtle tale of coming of age, twisting in bits of court intrigue, divine foreknowledge, religious persecution, and even taxation to make for something that truly feels at home in the world of ASOIAF. An absolute must-read.

    Summary

    Ratthi persuades Murderbot and Gurathin to go on a survey trip to a planet with the ominous nickname of Spider Planet. Soon, troubles with corporates and the local fauna mean that SecUnit is earning its currency cards, but nothing SecUnit can't handle - until it can't.

    "I’d like to say that at least things couldn’t get any worse, but whenever someone says that in the media things inevitably do get worse and that seems to be one of the things media actually gets right. Oh right. I just remembered how this gets worse: the only person who could help me was Gurathin."

    Summary

    Murderbot seeks context for experiences it thinks it'll understand better with an augmented human filter. If it can make media meaningful for ART, maybe Gurathin can make sex meaningful for it.

    (It does not realize how meaningful sex can be.)
