Summary
Rhaenyra wakes up screaming; they both do these days. They have learned to sleep like they did as children, sneaking into one another’s rooms just to be able to hold each other close without the disappointment, or the rage, of their fathers. It is not an easy thing, to not startle at the sound of a scream. It is harder still, to forget their blood is not only passed down from their mothers.
It is always the children. Whomever they have lost in siblings, mentors, even lovers, are all manageable losses. Things they carry with them, Rhaenyra especially, who has truly loved others aside Alicent. But the children— their children— are losses that cannot be consoled in a single heart. It has to be shared. It has to be dumped into the other’s hands, something bloody and burning. It is the only way either have them survived.

Summary
The lives he has taken tally and weigh, despite what his Mother may think of him. And it is for that reason this war needs to be won, because he cannot keep repeating himself. He cannot consider all the harm that is done and decide to cut their losses, because there is no more loss to be cut. They are only what they have, dragons, or so Aemond thought. Helaena will not ride with him. He knows this, now. He knows more than he should. He would have imagined knowing more would be useful, but all it feels is wrong.
“And you’ll be dead,” Helaena tells him, with unforgiving eyes and no remorse. He feels as though he is already dead in that moment. Helaena looks at him like she knows.
or,
After Aemond speaks with Helaena, there is little to say. There is plenty to think.

It's a cold, bitter night in New York.
Pete’s socks are soaking wet and freezing, and he’s shivering constantly. He left his jacket at home. He exhales out, and his breath clouds up in front of him like a warning.
or,
Pete's no good, very bad night.

Summary
Instead, Inej removes her fingers from Nina’s hair. At some point, her brown eyes drifted from Nina’s face to somewhere far off in the distance. It’s that same look Inej had at the ice court, when her bronze arms were covered in the cheap silks of Tante Heleen rather than the sturdy shirts she wore now.
“Can I braid your hair?” Inej asks softly, and Nina shivers. Inej has already given so much- has already comforted Nina through the nightmares, even let her stay in a room that was decidedly only enough space to fit one very small person. Still, she gives.

Summary
“Rhaenyra,” Alicent’s voice was a sharp hiss, though she kept it hushed so as not to wake the keep. “What... what are you doing here?”
The princess stepped lightly into the room, closing the door behind her. She moved with the ease of one who belonged, her bare feet making no sound on the stone. Rhaenyra was dressed in a simple nightgown, its pale silk clinging to her form, flowing as she walked. She made no effort to disguise her presence, nor to apologize for the intrusion. “I could not sleep,” she said simply. “I thought I might offer you some company.”
“Company?” Alicent repeated, the word foreign on her tongue as she stared at Rhaenyra. She felt exposed, scandalized, and her cheeks flushed with it. “You should not be here. It is improper.”
literally just inspired by this tiktok that's been consuming my thoughts for months:
