    Summary

    It was entirely unfair, Alicent thought, that on this day (a day where she was hungover, had no make-up on, was sweating to the point that she could feel it beading on her temple and upper lip, and her shirt was sticking everywhere) she would come face-to-face with the most gorgeous woman she had ever seen.

    “Hi,” the object of Alicent’s frustration said amiably, standing behind the till in the Student Union’s coffee shop. “How are you?”

    In which Alicent Hightower drinks coffee, makes small talk, and really, really fancies her favourite barista.

    Summary

    “What say you, Otto?”

    Viserys Targaryen and Otto Hightower run into each other at the airport. They catch up after years apart and come to the same conclusion:

    Our daughters would make the perfect match for each other ...

    “I say, you have yourself a deal old man.”

    OR

    For once, old Vizzy T and Otto are up to some good.

    Summary

    With the candles lit low, the room holds the hallowed glow of the sept. It is furnished magnificently - all the finest silks and table settings. Soon, Rhaenyra will sit at the high table, all in white. She will take Ser Laenor’s hand, take his oath, take him abed.

    Alicent is glad she will never see it.

    Or: Alicent decides to run a lot sooner.
