    Summary

    "Thread of green, thread of black, twined together in an ancient pact," Helaena recited as she compared passages and words. "Blood of blood, kin of kin, fire only burns for those against the sin."

    A lump formed in her throat with every sentence she read. It was exactly as she'd feared.

    Summary

    "Word spread of a boy washed ashore. Injured and with no memory. Poor little thing was alone and quite bereft with no one to care for him." Alys explained, running her hand down Aemond's chest."My sources were able to confirm his identity, and smuggled him out. I had him brought here for you. A gift for you to enjoy."

    Amnesiac Lucerys is brought to Aemond as a gift for him and Alys to share.

    Summary

    “Unless of course brother you would prefer me to bring you a boy.” Aegon's tone was light, teasing but that underlying menace had Aemond immediately tensing. Aegon broke into laughter, looking towards his companions. “Perhaps one of those pretty dark haired ones…if you hit it from the back I imagine you can pretend it's our little nephew.”

    Summary

    All Aegon has ever known is his mother's fear and rage, his father's cold indifference, and his grandfather's blind ambition. Unable to handle eternally falling short of their exceptions, or to face the threat of war on the horizon, he buries himself in his vices in order to cope, and waits for the world to be set aflame by the King's passing.

    Until Helaena gives him some advice that changes the course of his life, and the future: try and revive his old bond with his nephew, Jacaerys. If Aegon can convince him that he is no threat, then maybe Rhaenyra and the rest of the realm will believe it too.

    And if that means sneaking out to Dragonstone on Sunfyre? Learning more of his eldest sister and her family then he has ever before known? Realizing how kind and brave, smart and maybe even beautiful Jace is? And if those things together, shift the course of the Dance of Dragons, and House Targaryen forever?

    Well, who could have foreseen that?

    Or:

    Aegon accidentally joins the Blacks, falls in love, and fights a war, not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    When Lucerys Velaryon and Aemond Targaryen meet in a clash of wills above Shipbreaker Bay, an unknown dragon suddenly materializes before their eyes, dead to the world. Aemond abandons one hunt for another, intent on catching it before it can disappear beneath the bay, thus leaving Luke to choose between a brief window of escape...or almost certain capture.


    (Or: once in Gringotts, Harry finds himself engulfed in flames by the goblins' prisoner and is soon swept away on the adventure of a lifetime. Oh, and did he forget to mention he can apparently turn into a dragon now? Ye—ep, that is, in fact, a thing now.)
