Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

Summary
It fills him with dread. (And a want so visceral, so violent, it tears away at his chest, threatening to gnaw at the flesh covering his bones) This knowing that only he is the one capable of seeing him; feral and harsh and maddening.
He thinks of the wounds that bind them: the hollowness where his eye should be, the bite on Lucerys’ neck.Aemond and Lucerys marry. It is not out of their own volition.

Summary
“Lucerys Velaryon is alive,” Larys Strong said, and Aemond felt, for a brief moment, as if the stone had vanished beneath his feet.
—
Lucerys narrowly survived his encounter with his uncle, but the days he spent, half-mad and delirious, on that tiny islet irrevocably changed him. Twisted him, forced him to do something he never would have imagined himself capable of. But his actions called to him the largest wild dragon in Westeros.
On the back of Cannibal, Lucerys knew that the next time he confronted Aemond, they would be equals in more ways than one.

Summary
"Halbrand and I are just sleeping together. Plenty of people do that with their exes."
Elrond looks as though he is staving off a migraine. "Yes, I agree, loads of people have bad ideas. Is there some sort of competition you're seeking to win? A medal for 'most likely to detonate a ticking time bomb', perhaps?"
She scoffs. "You're missing the point; it doesn't mean anything. I hardly even see him any more than I used to since we started splitting custody of Celebrian—don’t give me that look, it makes me feel like you don't believe me—"
"Well, for one, you are FaceTiming me from his bed."
Or: Modern AU. Galadriel is having no-strings-attached sex with her ex-husband, Halbrand. Strings so unattached you wouldn't believe. (Seriously.)

Summary
Natasha presses her hand over her heart, and – Tony has heard rumors, that her skin is blank, or that she killed her other half, but he doesn’t believe them. “They deserve to know, don’t you think?”
He looks at the sleeping supersoldiers in his hospital room, thinks of going to bed safe and surrounded and waking up when it’s already light out, when the first pot of coffee is already cold, waking up to Steve’s bedhead and the body-warmed metal of Bucky’s prosthetic hand, waking up whole.
“They’ve been together for ninety years, Nat,” he says. “They’re practically married. There’s no room for me.”

Summary
Galadriel discovers that she is with child after "Halbrand" flees Eregion. She resolves that she will do whatever it takes to protect her child, even if that means that she must accept the Dark Lord's insidious proposal. She will become his Queen after all. She will bind him to the light and allow him to bind her to power. Because he was right about what he shouted at her in the vision: she has no choice. She needs him.

Summary
He longs to wrap her in the thickest, warmest furs.
He watches as she curls her arms around her chest and tucks her knees against herself as if she were a child once more. There's a sheen on her brow, and his fingers twitch.
He aches to touch her -
He aches to bring her into his world, the one that he alone has made. He wants their scents entangled, and to bury himself between her legs until his name is the only one that she cries.
It can be like that, now, he whispers.
(Now, he can roll about in the snow, and sink his teeth into the prey that he adores. He knows what he wants, and who he needs, his cravings clearer than anyone might think.)
His aunt, the dragon queen, the one who thought he would revel in her bed and follow her every whim, lies dead at his feet...
Canon AU | Jon knows exactly who he wants.

Summary
His niece is a spoiled thing - greedy, not ruined, not yet, that's to come, though he will be responsible for both things - for spoiling her with gifts and jewellery and trinkets and books and sacks full of furs and velvets and any other fine object that takes his fancy on his travels away from her; and for spoiling her for other men, for defiling the realm's delight and his brother's greatest joy.

Summary
It's said that even before King Daemon married her, his dragon princess, his niece, that if you ventured into the Great Hall you might oftentimes see her sitting on his lap atop the Iron Throne listening to him murmur his wickedness into her ear, her jewelled slippers dangling far above the still-sharp swords at his foot, his ringed hand tight on her waist.

Summary
It is Laena's idea, a kind offer from a goodsister who knows she is not the wife her husband might have chosen, and a clever scheme of a sister who knows her brother will not give Rhaenyra the children she needs and deserves.
It is a kind offer from a proud woman with a good heart.
But neither Daemon nor Rhaenyra are truly kind people.

Summary
The sept is too light; sunshine filtering through the stained glass and casting jagged shadows across the somber ceremony. Helaena looks down at the cold flagstones, trying to block out the brightness beating down on her eyelids. Between Aegon’s shoes she can see a tiny spider creep stealthily along the floor. Body tensing slightly, she prays Aegon will remain still until the creature is free (as I will never be).
———
Helaena gets married, but performs her duty with another brother.

Summary
Hermione’s adult life has meant a lot of carrying on. A war ends? She carries on. Her relationship ends? She carries on. Her optimism about swift reform in the Ministry ends? She carries on.
An entire Yule Ball full of friends, acquaintances, and strangers mistakenly thinks she and Malfoy are having a grand relationship reveal mid-gala? She probably shouldn’t carry on.
“They’re happy for us, Granger.”
“And that, truth be told, is very unexpected.”
[In which a single evening involves fake dating, only one bed, and the idea that sometimes things can be easy.]

Love in Other Places by mightbewriting for MrsButlertron

Summary
It required a strangely intimate level of trust, assuming Draco wouldn’t willfully mistranslate her, that he accurately interpreted a conversational ebb and flow.
It was irritatingly fascinating too, having him focus so acutely on her every word, pause for a beat, and then spin her intentions into a different language. If Hermione allowed herself the moment of indiscretion, she might have described it as a rush. A completely inappropriate rush, but a rush all the same.
[In which Hermione discovers an affinity for seeing Draco speak several languages.]

Summary
“It seems like there’s been some kind of misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding?”
“On the Hippogriff’s end.”
Ginny steals the article from Hermione’s grip, reading for herself. “Oh Merlin, you weren’t joking. Notoriously finicky about their reproductive habits, Hippogriff populations have been dwindling—blah, blah, blah—Mr. Malfoy enters the enclosure, confidently approaching. His stance is firm but bowed in deference. Throughout, he maintains dominating eye contact”—Ginny fans herself, grinning salaciously—“a persistent and requisite contradiction in dominance and submission. Matilda, the Hippogriff in question, ruffles her feathers in an action reminiscent of aroused shivers. Mr. Malfoy smiles, knowing he has her.”[In which a Hippogriff thinks it's married to Draco and does not appreciate when Hermione enters the picture.]
