    Summary

    rhaenyra targaryen, daughter of hall of famer viserys “the dragon king” targaryen, was raised on wrestling, practically making it her first language. alicent hightower, daughter of a simple builder, clawed her way up from the indies with nothing but ring smarts and an almost self destructive need to prove her father wrong.

    they meet on their first day of training and, ever since, have found solace in each other, but with wrestlemania season approaching, nothing tests them more than an industry built on ambition, ego, and backstage politics.

    (or: a wrestling au rhaenicent fic loosely inspired by charlotte flair and becky lynch’s storyline feud and real-life fallout.)

    Summary

    “I can relate.”

    Vel arched a single brow, fought back the rising smile.

    “Pretty?” She teased.

    “Gay.” Cinta’s gaze didn’t move from her. There was no smile on her lips, but as clueless as Vel usually was around gorgeous women, it would be hard to ignore the warmth in those big brown eyes. “Nice to know you think I’m pretty, though.”

    Oh. Vel thought. Oh, I'm fucked.

    ━━━

    After Vel’s ex-girlfriend dumps the worst possible surprise on her, Vel is forced to confront her intense feelings for Andor’s Veterinary Surgery’s newest and most emotionally unavailable employee: Dr. Cinta Kaz.

    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

    “You said my name.” Vel breathed out, her voice hoarse.

    Cinta ignored her or tried her best to. She carefully cradled Vel's neck in her hands, lifted it to rest against her folded-up jacket, and examined the bloodied mess Saj had made of Vel's face.

    Vel's expression cracked into a smile. Blood dribbled down her chin and pooled in the crease of her neck. “You said Vel.”

    Or, five times Cinta Kaz worried about Vel Sartha, and the one time she didn't have to.

    Summary

    A series of flashes in her mind: Rhaenyra’s head in her lap under the weirwood tree, her crystalline eyes alight. Syrax, saddled for two, soaring across the Narrow Sea to worlds unknown. The ripped page she still keeps locked away in her chambers, alongside a piece of her heart.

    Alicent can no longer afford to cling to Rhaenyra’s words like a promise. Yet after the longest of winters, there’s something addictive about the possibility of being consumed by dragonfire.

    or, Rhaenyra returns on dragonback. Alicent feels her presence like the rising sun. Post-1x08.

    Summary

    After the tragic death of Lyonel Strong in a fire at Harrenhal, King Viserys resolves to once again name Otto Hightower as the Hand of the King. That night, Viserys dreams of the dire future awaiting his family and the realm. The future he himself has inadvertently brought about.

    Viserys decides to do everything he can to prevent that future and ensure that his daughter will one day ascend the throne unopposed.

    Rhaenyra is not sure if she believes in the veracity of her father’s dream but, on the back foot against Alicent at court, the king’s newfound support is welcomed.

    However, as Viserys’s obsession with clearing a path for Rhaenyra’s queenship grows, is it too late for Rhaenyra to reconcile with Alicent and mend the divide between their two families?

    Summary

    The nightmare started like this:

    Vel sat on the steps in Ghorman, legs crossed one over the other, curly hair tied back, hands resting on her knees. A tourist resting after a long flight, bag settled beside her.

    One of the aspiring rebels approached, a red cap resting jauntily on a clean-style haircut. He kneels, as if tying his shoes. Familiar words tumble from his lips: “Visiting friends?”

    Or Vel wakes up or dies or passes out and finds herself back on steps in Ghorman more times than she can count.
