Summary
And even if getting Rhaenyra in as a soloist was a staggering show of nepotism, she was still the best concert pianist on the planet. It was like when Dmitri Junior recorded Shostakovich’s second. You could get mad about it for a bit, but it was ultimately fair game. Alicent had already reached all these conclusions because Viserys had spoken to her weeks ago about programming the Concerto, which only had the unwanted effect of giving her time to turn it over in her brain like a particularly nauseating Rubix cube. Each solution of the puzzle led her to the same conclusion: she would be seeing Rhaenyra imminently, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.
After ten years apart, Rhaenyra Targaryen re-enters Alicent's life for a set of solo engagements with her orchestra. Things go about as well as expected (not very).

Summary
She’d seen the degradation of watching a man fight for his life, the insatiable greed of those in the audience cheering it on. Women of high culture and class, women like the row that Galadriel finds herself in, are supposed to be above such carnage, weaned away from violence at a tender age in deference to their omega sensibilities.
But the man across the cage from her, a man that stands alone, studying her under a hood of soiled bangs, an unkempt mess of auburn hair rendered nearly black under all the grime. He’s covered in absolute filth, an iron collar around his neck linking him to a chained post nearby. He’s — tall, perhaps taller than any of the other alphas there. Built deceptively strong and unassumingly dressed in a dark blue linen shirt that looks like it’s seen better days. Torn and threadbare at the edges, he looks squalid, like he hasn’t seen a bath in weeks. He should be the farthest thing to draw her attention or attraction.
But his eyes hold hers without flinching when he stares at her, and Galadriel can't look away.

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Summary
A lopsided smile had stitched itself across his brother's mouth. It was a subtle mutation of Aegon's usual beam—brows drawn, nostrils flared, the round shine of his eyes taking on a hidden fierceness as pricks of longing began to wet his pale lashes.
He asked for adoration as king, yet this was when he was easiest to love: supplicant and sorrowful, shedding the salt of his tears upon his brother's parched lips.
The night after his coronation, Aegon comes to Aemond for comfort.

Summary
The Bounty was meant to be a place of hope and healing. What Prince Aegon found there was a cornered creature of similarly voracious appetites and a familiar desperation to escape. But despite the guiding touch of a new hand, the spool of thread remained the same — brilliantly green and fraying, kissed with dragonfire.

Summary
Louis shakes his head. “And now he's got you stepping on him.”
Daniel picks his drink up and necks the last half of it. “I have not,” he says, “stepped on him, as of yet.”
“But you want to.”
“I think so?” Daniel puts the empty glass back on the table and scoots it out of their immediate limb radius. “I think I could want to. I want to want to.”
“There you go,” Louis says, “tell him that. That'll set the mood.”

Summary
“What are you doing?” His tone was flat, bored as though I were too lowly to truly offend him. His gaze was on the jars, his long, keenly defined profile cast in shadow.
“I only thought…” I had never been a master of my art, not like Mysaria or my mother, but my charm had never so utterly failed me.
“You wanted to lure me away, so I didn’t touch your mistress’s pretty things.” He laughed low, and sweeping his arm, lifted my chin with two fingers and peered at me. He tugged at a strand of hair, studying it as he curled it in his fingers. “The hair, the curve of the jaw. I should have known.” He was so near me, the eye dilated, and the lips parted. “You’re one Aegon’s whelps, aren’t you?”

Marai, a young courtesan from the Street of Silk, was always intended to be the pleasure and plaything of High Lords. But when she is unceremoniously yanked out of the Street of Silk as the bastard daughter of King Aegon II, she must face the peril and wonder of living among the Targaryens.
She may find an ally in Prince Aemond Targaryen- if he doesn’t destroy her first.

Summary
"Rationality said there had to be another Jenny in the Keep, a beautiful Jenny, a Jenny of noble birth that had caught his eye. Not this Jenny. Jenny of nothing and nobody. Jenny who scrubbed hearths and scooped ash and spent her days covered in dust. It just wasn’t possible. But even if I knew it had to be some kind of mistake, some kind of impossible fantasy on my part, I stared up at the underside of the table. And smiled."

Takes place after the novels and prior to The Witcher 3, with eventual crossover into and after the events of The Witcher 3. All characters belong to Andrzej Sapkowski and CDPR - I am but an adoring fan with lots of ideas to fill in the gaps.

NOTE: Includes spoilers from the novels and games.
Dedicated to Dordean, who is so awesome, so kind, and an amazing writer! <3 Thank you for all of your works, and thank you especially for sharing the Cahir/Ciri love!
AU where Cahir survives the assault on Stygga Castle. Geralt and Cahir travel to Ard Skellige to celebrate Yuletide. Takes place after The Witcher 3. Cahir’s POV. I don't usually do holiday stuff or even overly fluffy stuff, but dammit, Cori and Cahir deserve it. Mostly anxious Cahir and good old-fashioned fluff in Part One; explicit content begins in Part Two.
