    Summary

    In 97 AC, Daemon Targaryen weds Alicent Hightower. How can that change the course of history?

    What follows is an alternate Dance of Dragons, between Daemon Targaryen and Rhaenyra Targaryen. The factions have shifted, alliances have brought half of the realm together for the Reds and the Rogue Prince is known by the name of "King of the Hightower". Will the Blacks stand any chance?

    When dragons dance, the realm bleeds.

    All credit goes to George R.R. Martin. This story is different from the original, although most characters are the ones from canon.

    Summary

    What would you do in the villain’s place?

    An adult consciousness wakes in the body of three-year-old Joffrey Baratheon. He's armed with foreknowledge and a lifetime's worth of experience… and it is not enough. He is still Cersei's son, still Robert's "heir," and still sitting on a secret that could kill him and everyone he loves. And the more he builds to protect himself, the more he has to lose. This is a story about governance and grief, about the cost of necessary choices, and about what it means to love people who have the power to destroy you.

    It is also, somewhat accidentally, the tale of how King Joffrey I Baratheon completely revolutionized the Westerosi shipbuilding industry, and with it altered the balance of power across the entire known world.

    Summary

    On the eve of Lysa's giving birth to the next Lord Arryn, Jon Arryn awakes to discover that he's not just Jon Arryn anymore, but instead has had his mind merged with, Seven help him, an ASOIAF geek.

    Salamon2 has been inserted into Jon Arryn's head in the year 292 AC. Will he be able to "build a better Westeros" as the logic of Self-Insert stories demands (with of course copious amount of details given to the how-to aspect of construction and innovation), all while preventing the events from A Game of Thrones from occurring? Or will his genre savvy self and love of literary criticism by Northrop Frye doom him to instead satirize the genre of self-insert stories? The latter is the answer, oh most definitely the latter.
