Summary
“If it is forgiveness you seek for killing my father, you will not find it here,” Alicent says over a scoff, over a nasty sound.
Her daughter sleeps behind her in a cot thin as parchment. Her father’s blood seems still beneath her nails though she has not touched him. The city outside groans under its new queen, Aegon has fled, Aemond has taken Harrenhal, and yet Rhaenyra stands in her stripped room, crownless and terrible, asking for judgment as though Alicent has any right to give it.
Perhaps she does; and perhaps that is the final cruelty.
tldr: the one where they slowly reshape the future of Rhaenyra’s reign, mend what has been broken, and rebuild their own family from the ruins. the slowest of burns, really.

Summary
For Channing, Pelican Town was the farm and the summers she spent there—the only place that ever felt truly stable.
Haley was always a part of that. Every year ended with a goodbye that never felt permanent, because Channing always came back.
Haley learned to trust it.
Then one summer, Channing didn’t return. The seasons passed without her, and Haley was left behind. She watched the road until she finally realized no one was coming. Letting go meant accepting that Channing had chosen a life without her.
Ten years later, her grandfather’s death forces Channing to come home. She returns to the weathered fences and quiet fields of the farm, only to find that the past isn’t as buried as she thought. Haley is still there—changed, guarded, and hurt by what was left behind.
Can two people who became strangers find their way back to the love they started years ago, or is it too late to salvage?

Summary
"Her name is Alicent Hightower, I'll introduce you two after breakfast at the training center. And Rhaenyra." Viserys says, voice stern, "She's off limits."
"Aren't they all?" she scoffs.
"What?"
"Nothing dad." Really she did understand, this was the one rule her dad has and he always let Rhaenyra get away with murder so with the exception of that one time, she makes sure to follow it. That’s why it pisses her off so bad when he reiterates it. "Show her the ropes and stay out of her pants, I got it."
Or
A Modern Westeros AU where Rhaenyra works for her father as a horse trainer at The Red Keep: Racing, Casino, Resort and Alicent is their newly hired jockey a long way from home. and Viserys only has one rule for his daughter: don’t fuck the employees.
But that’s easier said than done.

Summary
It was simple here, simple for her. The stillness within the simplicity held her down, drew her close when the knots threatened to tumble out of her mouth. But lately, it sat in the center of her belly, twisting at all times of the day and wringing her nerves in the night. It felt like her home was unraveling into the bare frames of a house, the once-vibrant stained glasses fading into something translucent. It was restless. It ached.

Summary
Alicent holds her eye contact for a moment longer and follows with “You didn’t tell me you were going to cut it”. Again with the haircut. She shifts her focus with the shirt in her hands.
“Didn’t know I was. Just woke up one morning and got sick of myself,” Rhaenyra replied, “You should try being spontaneous,” she said after a beat. “It suits you.”
“I am spontaneous,” Alicent said, sitting up indignantly.
“You schedule your spontaneity.”

and far, far more dangerous to the order alicent has built her entire life around.
