    Summary

    On the anniversary of Bloodsong of Wycaro’s release, the hivemind throws Carol a surprise party, which does absolutely nothing to make her happy. But when Zosia shows up dressed as Raban, the seductive pirate from her own book, Carol discovers there’s only so much she can do to deny the pull she feels toward the woman who fights to keep her individuality even while connected to the collective mind.

    or, carol is needy, zosia is dressed like a pirate and tequila makes everything a lot more interesting.

    Summary

    Zosia raises an eyebrow. “We never lied to you. I never lied to you.”

    “And I didn't either,” Carol says. “But you chose to leave out the truth so you could turn me into something you know I don’t want to be.”

    “So what did you do to me then?”

    There’s a moment where they just stare at each other, pain mirrored on both of their faces.

     

    or: carol and manousos manage to un-hive zosia. it goes as well as expected.

    Summary

    “I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”

    Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”

    “I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”

    Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.

    “Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.

    After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.

    Summary

    alicent hightower grew up watching princess rhaenyra targaryen of valyria from a distance; through headlines, scandals, and her head-of-the-global-council father's word-of-mouth. in adulthood, she's assigned to oversee the peaceful transition of power in valyria to find that rhaenyra targaryen is precisely as intractable as the media and her father promised—

    and far, far more dangerous to the order alicent has built her entire life around.

    (or; a modern royalty au with political optics, assassinations, absolutely no geographical accuracy, and a doomed sense of professionalism)

    Summary

    Lady Mysaria. Wherever she went in this blasted castle – imprisoned here as surely as if she had been chained to its very walls – she could not seem to escape mentions of the mysterious Lyseni woman.

    Rhaenyra had flown in, as Alicent had counselled her, on the third day from their illicit meeting on Dragonstone with her dragons – her triumphant return to King’s Landing to claim her throne. Ridiculously, the future queen had been dressed all in black mail, with Mysaria seated behind her upon Syrax’s back. And ever since they landed together in the courtyard, it seemed that where Rhaenyra went, the Lyseni woman followed.
