    Summary

    A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms but its Single Mother Maekar trying to go on a family road trip with his brother, Baelor, and his perfect children. Maekar’s own children? A far cry from perfect.

    Just a modern twist on our favorite family function where nobody is functioning at all.

    More tags and characters will potentially be added as I go along with whatever the voices tell me to write <3

    Summary

    "You're lost, prince."
    "Am I?" Daeron peered around as if only now noticing where he'd ended up. "Doesn't seem so. I was looking for a tent, and here's a tent." He gestured broadly, nearly toppling himself in the process.
    "This isn't your tent."
    "No, mine's much finer." Daeron took another wobbling step closer. "Silks and satin and all manner of royal rubbish. Dreadfully boring."

    Daeron stumbles into Raymun's tent after Baelor's funeral, and Raymun takes care of him despite every reason not to.

    Summary

    Deciding to work in Italy for the summer was not what Duncan had intended to do with his life after school, watching after four young children in Italy for said job was something he expected to do even less, but now he’s here and there’s no turning back.

    Eight weeks of helping out around the house, eight weeks of playing with children, eight weeks of listening to the happy noises of a full house he hasn’t recognized since he was ten, and eight weeks of sharing a bathroom with the eldest son in the house who can seem to understand personal space and serious conversations.

    Or

    Duncan becomes an au pair in Italy for the Targaryen family and quickly realizes he is no match for silver haired boys with lots of confidence and too much free will.

    Summary

    Daeron Targaryen struggles with guilt over his own lie: the accusation he has made against a hedge knight to save his own skin from his father’s wrath.

    When Egg, the only person who still sees the good in him, urges him to act to prevent the Trial of Seven, Daeron agrees. The two brothers decide to seek justice with their uncle Baelor.

    However, he does not expect that this will also lead to a confrontation with their father.

    What comes to light during the night-time conversation in the Hand of the King’s chamber shatters every carefully maintained illusion the Targaryen family has held about itself.

    Summary

    "You don't understand how long it's been since.."
    "Then show me."

     

    Maekar Targaryen thought grief had burned everything out of him.
    Life without Dyanna didn't make much sense anymore. It was empty, and cold.
    But can really a single person stumble into your life, so casually, that changes the trajectory of your whole being? That's exactly what he has to come to terms with.

    Because some fires, it turns out, never truly go out.
