Summary
In the year 1857 AC the journal of the king that solidified the rule of the Baratheon dynasty was found. The surprisingly frank and direct journal entries give Dr. Hedda Barath a rather unique insight in what life was in Westeros 1500 years ago.
With growing unease, I note that the so venerated Maesters at Oldtown have started to adjust the events of my reign in a nearly utopian narration. Gone are the mistakes I made in my reign, gone are the hunger and thirst, the blood and the sickness, only the glory and honorable deaths are left. Nothing of the cravenness in my own ranks, instead the only ones that were craven were my enemies. Men and women that stood opposite me are demonized into fantasy. I cannot abide this farce, I simply cannot. So in these last days before the Stranger takes me too I will attempt to give an account of my life, the events that shaped me and my rule.
King Joffrey Baratheon, First of his name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, Protector of the Realm.

basically a what if jeoffrey wasn't a prick, the SI has little background or relevance themselves which works fine, the occasional history book format is interesting, though i admittedly mostly skimmed the short 'modern day' parts some of the glimpses into a modern westeros were interesting. this is very nation building fic style but manages to make it interesting. still very early in canon i hope this keeps going

Bookmark Notes:
joffrey is a competent bastard who collects competent bastards and seeing the reactions historians have to his opinions and worldview makes this story even more delicious. I feel like a scavenging creature who's discovered someone's hidden stores (good writing, worldbuilding and characters) and is able to gorge on the yummyness.
74/ jon's just narrating how he's leaving the north and his family for the south here.
