    Summary

    Sterling found herself drawn to the anonymity of the letter writing. No one made her sign her own name, so she didn’t. Just like that. She wasn’t Blair’s sister or Luke’s girlfriend or the girl with the second highest grades in the fifth grade, she was just a person writing a letter. She signed it TS on a whim, because, well, she was still deeply in a Taylor Swift phase and ever since April had just - well, she just didn’t have anyone to talk to about it anymore. So she wrote letters to some random girl miles away, bent over a big wooden table with a curated variety of gel pens. It was fun, freeing, and something that was solely hers.

    And then, even better, she got them back. 
    ___

    Or, there's no way in hell that the two girls with the years long anonymous friendship who wrote letters to each other at camp and now frequently email could be the same two girls who are sworn enemies at school, right?

    Created with awe and reverence for You've Got Mail (1998).

    Summary

    That’s the problem with newly-sharpened pencils. “Then what?” They’re always a second away from needing a new sharpen, a second away from—

    “I mean, I need you to be my date.”

    —breaking. Alicent presses too hard, then, and the lead falls flat with a snapping noise. “What?”

    FEATURING: a very fake relationship, a very real wedding, a play with five acts, and two people who are definitely not in love.

    Summary

    “Who better to stand in my stead, to stand as the Crown,” Viserys raises his hands, like he’s about to shock them all with his wisdom, “Than its trueborn heir.”

    Rhaenyra preens at the praise, the recognition. “Thank you, Father.”

    “And the Queen.”

    The smile drops from her face.

     

    OR

    [Post-1x06] The King sends Rhaenyra and Alicent to strengthen ties with the North. Alicent lasts two days with a chill that reaches her bones; and then she finds a solution.

    (the bed-sharing fix-it that wonders if dragon blood really runs that hot)

    Summary

    It’s a downright demeaning way to live, she inherently knows this. Alicent used to think one day she would let the guilt get the best of her and end this thing between them before it even really got started, but she’s come to realize over the last few months how weak she is.

    It makes her feel dizzy to realize how afraid she is, and how despite that fear, she does it anyway. Gives in time and time again, like Rhaenyra is not a spoiled brat and instead some undeniable force of nature.

    (Or, where time and time again Rhaenyra proves she is far from being scrupulous to get what she wants, and time and time again Alicent proves she can’t deny what she undeniably wants.)

    Summary

    “What are you – Why are you looking at me like that?”

    “Like what?”

    Robin swallows. Licks her lips.

    “I don’t know,” Robin says, because she doesn’t.

    “Yes,” Nancy says, entirely too confident. “You do.”

    ---------

    Robin and Nancy hang out a lot. They're friends. It's not dating. It's not. Robin's certain. Until she... isn't.
