Summary
“Your Grace.” Rhaenyra’s voice is cool; she isn’t looking at Alicent the way she did the night before. She looks at her the way she did after the wedding: as if Alicent is a casual acquaintance she doesn’t particularly care about. “To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?”
Alicent takes a deep breath, then begins. “I think we both know why I am here.”
“Do we?” Rhaenyra isn’t just cool now, but ice cold. Alicent thinks she can sense an undercurrent of hurt, somewhere, but it disappears as soon as she notices it. “I certainly don’t know. Lately I never know exactly what will come out of your mouth when you speak to me, although I can assume that it won’t be something pleasant.”
“I apologize for my behavior,” Alicent says stiffly. “I have not been myself lately, and I know that I have hurt you, and embarrassed myself.”
“You’re not embarrassed because you haven’t been yourself,” Rhaenyra says. “You’re embarrassed because you have been acting like yourself, and you don’t like it.”

In the author's word, it "explores the more mean and dysfunctional side" of Rhaenicent's dynamics. I loved it!

”The time is coming, Alicent. Either you prepare Aegon to rule, or you cleave to Rhaenyra and pray for her mercy.”
What if instead of interrogating Criston Cole, Alicent had just talked to Rhaenyra?
What if Alicent had taken her father’s advice, but not the way he intended?
What if . . . Alicent had cleaved to Rhaenyra?Canon-divergent fix-it.
