    Summary

    Targaryens are dragons in the shape of men, or have been since magic went out of the world. Before that they were something more. Yet magic has not gone entirely, and it takes only a little of it to save a man's life.

    Summary

    There is occasionally a certain point one reaches during the attempt to attain a goal where one decides that the goal is just not worth it.

    Unfortunately, this also often coincides with being at a point in the attainment of that goal where it’s too damn late and you’re just gonna have to suck it up, buttercup, and get your shit together and do it anyway.

    Tim is pretty sure this shit is absolutely not worth it, but it’s too late now and even if it wasn’t, Mama ain’t raise no fuckin’ quitter.

    Or:

    Tim’s quest to bring Bruce back from his Time-Travel-Super-Vacation goes horribly topsy-turvey when Ra's takes a more pro-active approach to keeping Tim prisoner, and he ends up in an alternate universe where he never existed, and everybody is disorientingly well-adjusted and weirdly obsessed with his “wellness”, whatever that means.

    Tim hates mystical artifacts.

    Summary

    The alien was saying something about Carl. Asking her if she remembered that she was going to talk to him tonight, whether she remembered the videos they’d shown her. It all seemed too far away and too close all at once, numb and overwhelming. Didn’t they know Carl was dead? She knew. God, did she know. She’d mourned him for months now.

    Bea’s POV leading up to and during the confrontation on Odette’s show.

    Summary

    How many times in his life had Simon stared out into the fading stars, and heard others calling out to deities or a universe that didn’t care…or if it did, was powerless to fix anything. Simon didn’t know what was worse. And then, just when all his hope had been thrown alongside him into a Blood Ocean on a mysterious moon… he finds himself lost to a flash of light. Maybe the C.O.I were right all along, Grace is the true salvation.

    Now with sequel!

    Summary

    “You lied?” she asks, staring at him. “Daeron. Egg,” she frowns at him. “Not Egg, is it? No, Aegon!” she snaps, rage filling her, but it’s not really the boy she’s angry at, even as his shoulders hunch even more. She breathes, feeling like she’s breathing fire as she turns on her heel and glares at him standing there. So impeccably dressed. So fucking beautiful, for all that she can’t stand the sight of him. “Not Bael, was it?” she spits at him. “Baelor!” she sneers. He flushes, looking so like his nephew it does nothing but fuel the flames of her rage.

    “What?” she hears Egg exclaim behind her, but she doesn’t turn to look. Can’t bring herself to tear her eyes away from him.

    “Was any of it real?” she asks, he won’t meet her eyes. “Or is lying all you Targaryens are good for?” Maybe Raymun was right.

    Summary

    Word crossed Westeros like a wildfire that Lyonel Baratheon had been injured. The word was that he’d been badly injured in some tourney or duel or silly show of arrogant heroism, and had been hurried home to Storm’s End to be treated and to recover. Too bad, was the word, but ain’t these highborns been dropping like flies lately.

    --

    Dunk hears the word and drops everything to rush to Lyonel's side.

    Summary

    Prince Baelor Targaryen, Hand of the King, has been trained (and trained well) in what his wife Jena calls, "The Art." Gossip is as much an art as it is a sport as it is a science, and the prosperity of the kingdom can sometimes hinge on rumor alone. When he and his retinue arrive in Ashford Meadow, Baelor overhears something rather incredible:

    Lyonel Baratheon has folk-married a hedge knight.

    Summary

    He did not know how best to put it into words. I dreamed of you, he could say, because there had not been a night in months where he had not been hunted in his sleep by a brindled hart with wolf’s teeth. I thought you were taken mad, he could say, but Lyonel’s eyes were black and gold and the light of frenzy was in his face, and he could very well be mad. He certainly did not look like a man in his right mind, but the madness threw his features into contrast and made him more handsome somehow. It seemed unwise to let you be alone, he could say, because there was a blooming seed of fear in his gut that poor half-mad, half-beast Lyonel on his own in the rainwood would fall victim to bear or wolf or some lost hunter—

    Foolish, Dunk knew, since the hart had survived his heats near as long as Dunk had been alive. Even a direwolf might pause at the sight of Lyonel and his splendid rack of antlers, forked like lightning with tines like arrowheads. He was a creature of sleek hard strength and blooded instinct. When his gaze met Dunk’s, it was Dunk who flinched away. What fool would think of hunting him?

    Summary

    The rules of Baelor and Aerion’s open relationship are simple: be honest, be safe, don’t bring anyone home without talking about it first.

    The rules did not cover the possibility that Baelor, director of the Targaryen Natural History Museum and dragon paleontologist, and Aerion, head curator of the Targaryen Art Museum, would both independently start dating the same six-foot-five art handler from Flea Bottom who works at both of their museums and doesn’t know they live together.

    The rules definitely did not cover what happens when a man with too-big hands and no last name worth mentioning sees something in both of them that they stopped seeing in each other.

    This might not have been what their therapist had in mind.

    Summary

    Ser Duncan the Tall has survived trial by seven, drought disputes, and Blackfyre conspiracies.

    What he cannot survive is dinner.

    When Lord Raymun Fossoway — newly minted founder of the Green Apple branch and blissfully in love with his wife — invites Dunk and his squire Egg to celebrate his son’s nameday, Dunk expects roast capon and polite conversation.
    He does not expect:

    • A Dondarrion-looking baby with unmistakable Dondarrion brows.
    • Rowan smiling like a woman holding a wildfire secret.
    • Raymun asking him to be take in the boy as his squire when grown.
    • Egg nearly exposing the entire lie for sport.
    • And himself choking on a meat pie while accidentally consenting to spiritual guardianship of a thunderstorm disguised as an apple.

    Dunk knows.
    Rowan knows he knows.
    Egg definitely knows.
    Raymun is besotted.
    And Lyonel nearly ruined it all in the end.

    And sometimes mercy is choosing not to ruin a good man’s happiness — even if the child looks like he rode in from the Stormlands.

    A tale of silent pacts, aggressive under-table kicking, and one very suspicious apple.
