    Summary

    Dunk’s just a lad from Cork who secured a full scholarship to Oxford… He feels inadequate— coming from a humble background and suddenly surrounded by hyphenated last names and signet rings. He hopes to not make a fool of himself.

    Aerion’s family is facing a political embarrassment, the Targaryens may be asset “rich” and title rich, but being a Lord doesn’t pay the maintenance bills of their summer homes. And Aerion’s grandfather just lost the London Mayoral elections, so that’s even a bigger embarrassment. His family’s broke, and he’s trying to save face in Oxford.

    They meet via a fresher’s party… and oh my god someone is in deep DENIAL.

    TLDR: Lovable and humble Dunk meets pretty boy Aerion trying to keep afloat in a world where his family is losing its grip. Dunk becomes his anchor.

    Summary

    “Daeron sees it, but I hear it all, I hear it. My ancestors, they whisper to me, the dragons themselves” Aerion clutches onto his tunic with a white knuckle grip.

    “I will remake House Targaryen, I will! I will drink the dragonflame and warm our son in my belly, he will breathe that fire and it will turn his skin to scales and wings, wings will sprout from his back, and he will fly from my body and this world will be alive with the music of dragons once more!”

    Summary

    “What are you still doing here? Go get me a coffee.”

    “Sir,” Duncan said, “I’m not— I don't work here.”

    The man’s mouth twitched. “Are you too stupid to manage coffee? Or would you prefer I give the job to someone else?”

    In hindsight, Duncan should have known getting that job had been far too easy.

    Or, the one where Aerion torments Duncan.

    Summary

    "The crown suits you, you know," said Ser Duncan over the cacophony, and brought Baelor back to himself. "Makes you look... you know. Kingly. Which I suppose makes sense, given that you're the king now." A look of anguish crossed his face. "Oh, hells, I shouldn't be calling you 'you,' should I? It's 'Your Grace.' Please don't take—"

    Baelor resisted the urge to rest his hand against the lad's back, as one might soothe a skittish horse. "No offense was taken, ser."

    "Thank you," Ser Duncan said, then immediately amended, "Thank Your Grace...ness. Seven fucks, I'm getting another drink." And he whirled away into the throng before Baelor could say a word.
