Summary
You hesitate, voice gentle. “So…is this basically…like a rut or something?”
Kyryll stills, then exhales slowly against your skin. His laugh is quiet, resigned—the sound of a man who has given up on maintaining dignity. “If you insist on using such a barbaric term, then yes,” he murmurs, voice low and rueful. “It is something akin to that.”
OR: Flins is not human, and his non human form happens to come with a rather interesting condition

Summary
What if Aemond Targaryen survived God's Eye, got a chance to become an adult and learn from his past? Who would he become?
A story about redemption, coming of age, complicated love, and the price of war.
*Bit of a warning: this story was written by a psychoanalytical theory student. It treads adult themes and murky emotional waters as it progresses. It frustrates at times. It's not a SI-friendly story. You might rage. You might cry. You've been warned.

Summary
When Daemon Targaryen claims his bastard daughter, Maelyra, born from a pirate captain he took for a lover in his time as King of the Narrow Sea, it’s not to raise her in court and gown her in dresses. That’s for his trueborn daughters, Baela and Rhaena. No, Lyra, the child of a fallen Tyroshi pirate captain, possesses too many skills Daemon can use in his strategies and plots, as he senses building strife between the courts of Queen Alicent and Princess Rhaenyra. He needs a spy, an assassin, and a dragonrider no one expects, so he brings his bastard into the household of Driftmark, disguised as nothing more than a foreign serving girl.
Lyra grows up between Driftmark, the Red Keep, and Dragonstone in the events leading up to the Dance, and as tensions rise, her loyalties are tested, especially when she finds herself caring for someone who may bring doom upon those she calls kin.
(Basically all of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s kids have a secret older sister who will smother them with eldest sister energy in all events leading up and into the Dance. Also slow burn friends-to-enemies-to-secret-third-thing between female OC/Aemond.)

Summary
In addition to RAD, Diavolo has created an inter-realm enrichment program for individuals who are already in the workforce and don't wish to revisit school. Several humans have been recruited for the first round of the enrichment program, including Raynn, a thirty-something single female who doesn't have a filter and doesn't put up with anyone's flak.
Raynn prefers to stick to herself and spend time with her favorite companion, Mocha, her pet cat. While she will tolerate some amount of attitude, her patience runs out quickly, and she returns the offending individual's temperament in equal measure.
Learning to traverse not only new relationships but also societal standards, which are fairly different from what she's accustomed to, is a challenge in and of itself. However, dealing with highly powerful beings who typically view humans as inferior adds an extra level of difficulty to something that is already trying.
