Summary
King’s Landing was too hot. Hot, and loud, and reeking of rancid sea air and the rankness of too many bodies bustling in too tight a space. Jon hated it and he had hated it since the moment he saw the towers of the Red Keep and the city’s high walls from horseback in the procession that brought him to the capital. Jon tugged on the collar of his doublet, pulling it away from his neck to let what little breeze there was blow onto the sweaty skin there. Jon was not made for the South, he decided. He was a Snow, made for cold and ice. Not for thick sea air and the hot southern sun.
(Jon's lord father may be Hand of the King and his half-sister engaged to the prince but in King's Landing Jon Snow is nothing more than a bastard. Lonely and bored, Jon takes to walking the markets on the Street of Steel. Satin had come to King's Landing for a fresh start but finds himself living much the same as he had in Oldtown - wasting his days and working away his nights as a lowly whore in a brothel on the Street of Silk. By rights, they should never meet. By chance, they do. A story of friendship and love, desire and denial, push and pull, will and won't as two boys who were never supposed to fall in love do just that.)

Summary
An HotD AU where Gael, after giving birth to a living baby boy and threatening to kill herself should he be taken away from her, is quickly and quietly married off to a minor Lord in the Crownlands, who is willing to take her - under the condition to also take her bastard.
An OC-centric and eventually canon-divergent mix of show and book canon.

A Slow Burning Fire, Tended With Care by Rosavalda_Freya

Summary
Satin felt the Lord Commander’s eyes following him as he worked. It was not an unfamiliar feeling, a man’s eyes on him. But it always felt different when Jon watched him. His eyes did not leer or ogle him with greedy heat. They simply watched. There was something inscrutable to those grey eyes – an intensity that was not hunger, a warmth that was not heat, an aloofness that was not cold. In the eyes of men Satin could read much; he knew in them lust, desire, anger, repulsion. But he could not read Jon Snow. It infuriated him. It intrigued him. It made him deeply, viscerally, uncomfortable.
(A continuation of ASOIAF, told from Satin’s POV. Starting mid-ADWD and moving beyond. A JonSatin centric tale of love, duty, and devotion. Welcome to a very, very slow burn as they dance around each other, push and pull, offer and resist, and become far more to one another than they ever expected)

Summary
Rhaenyra Bastard and Usurper AU
The coronation of Viserys sparked controversy across the Realm. At the urging of his Dornish Queen, the young King declared his firstborn daughter, Princess Alaeyne Targaryen, "The Sunrise Princess," his named heir.
There was outrage, of course. But the Realm built by the Old King Jaehaerys was strong and resilient. One by one, the Lords of the Realm came to King's Landing to bend the knee and swear obeisance to King Viserys and the Princess of Dragonstone.
It seemed that a woman would rule the Seven Kingdoms for the first time in its history.
However, quiet words - not spoken, but whispered - began to spread throughout the realm. They held no real importance by the time of Viserys' coronation or for many years thereafter. But, by the end of Viserys' life, they set the Realm asunder in a Dance of Dragons.
If a woman is to rule the Realm, then let it be the daughter of Aemma Arryn, the "Bastard of the Vale," more Targaryen than the "Sunrise Princess" in everything but name.
