    Summary

    It began with small, innocent touches that would paint his cheeks pink, but Baelor never noticed. How could he? The prince was generous and warm. He meant nothing by it, and it was Dunk who made it into an issue. It would have been easy to ignore, only that Duncan was also made to undress him, help him to his bath, and lift his naked boy from the copper tub, all while the tips of his ears flamed hotly and his eyes desperately looked anywhere but at the prince's bare body. He had a duty to care, to protect, and Duncan would see to it, even when Baelor's needs, brought by injuries that Duncan was to blame for, dragged him down an increasingly uncomfortable and strange path.

    Duncan is asked to fulfill his vow to Prince Baelor as his caretaker at Ashford, while the Prince is recovering from his wounds. He slowly comes to find that the honour-bound relationship with his sworn liege Lord is not what he had innocently dreamed of once.

    Summary

    He sat at the grave, for the second time this week, and wept. He held the satchel to his chest, mounting Thunder and kept riding down the road. He didn’t know when the rain stopped, but his tears didn’t stop. The inn rose in the distance and he wiped his tears away and nudged his horse to go faster. He could use actual rest.

    The boy took the copper and his horses and Dunk sat in the corner of the inn, staring at the watery soup and the satchel. He didn’t want to open it, didn’t want to know what the Princess had died for. But he owed it to her. He pulled it closer and undid the clasp, flipping the flap open to look inside.

    He immediately closed it.

    Dunk hatched three dragons, over sixty years after the last one died. He doesn't know how he hatched them and he doesn't know how to care for them - but luckily the royal family arrived at Ashford. Maybe they can help.

    Summary

    Dunk has two soul marks appear on his 18th name-day: one on his left arm and one on the back of his neck. It's known that your soul brand appears where your soulbound first touches you. But, being a commoner, Dunk was never educated on what his marks truly mean. Commoners aren't expected to meet their soulbound, so why waist time educating them on the subject.

    After the death of his ser, Dunk continues toward the tournament in hopes of finding glory as a knight. He finds a lot more than glory.

    Summary

    After Baelor’s cock stops working the way it’s intended to, Maekar decides it is his job to help him fix it. They have been raising their pups together for nearly a decade and despite what Baelor may wish, Maekar has never shown any inclination that he returns Baelor’s feelings.

    So he is surely only helping him for the good of the pack.

    Right?

    Summary

    The Ashford Tourney was meant to celebrate Lady Ashford’s thirteenth nameday. Five champions rode to defend her crown as Queen of Love and Beauty, while challengers from across the realm gathered beneath torchlight to test their skill, their honor, and their fortunes. Yet long after the banners were lowered and the lists cleared, the tourney would be remembered for something else entirely: the strange and unexpected tale of a brother and sister of House Waynwood.

    Against all expectations, Ser Wallace Waynwood of Ironoaks begins to rise through the lists, unseating champions and earning a name whispered across the meadow — the Green Knight of Ashford.

    At the same time, rumors swirl through the stands. Prince Baelor Targaryen, widowed and heir to the Iron Throne, is said to be searching for a new wife. And among the noble ladies gathered at Ashford, his attention seems to fall more than once upon Joanna Waynwood.

    The realm may be writing a love story.

    Joanna Waynwood intends to have no part in it.
