Summary
Except, well. There’s some part of him that keeps thinking those two words over and over, what if? What if? What if? That’s all he’s thought since he met the fucking kid. What if I told you to kiss me? What if I liked it? What if we did something horrible to each other, something we couldn’t take back?

You'd think it wouldn't work, and ninety percent of the time, you'd be right.

Summary
After Daenerys Targaryen, queen of the small European principality of Westeros, discovers that she is infertile, she has six months to declare a legitimate heir to the throne, or else, under Westerosi law, it will pass into the hands of her distant cousin Robert Baratheon. With no immediate family and no children, she has no choice but to turn to the very last of the Targaryen line: nearly eighteen years ago, her late brother Rhaegar eloped with an American named Lyanna Stark. Rhaegar and Lyanna were desperately in love, but family pressures eventually prevailed, and after Lyanna died during childbirth, Rhaegar returned to Westeros to remarry, leaving their son, Jon, with Lyanna’s brother’s family in Los Angeles. His adoptive parents – partially for his own safety – never even told him he was a prince.
Now, Dany has six months and all the resources of Westeros with which to turn this grungy LA teen into crown prince material – all while keeping his royal identity firmly under wraps from the court, the press, and his ragtag bunch of friends.
(Or, The Princess Diaries AU, in which Jon Snow is Anne Hathaway and Dany is almost as cool as Julie Andrews.)

Summary
If he has feelings for Richard, so be it. It doesn’t seem like the kind of thing that’s worth bringing up. Just because Jared thinks he feels it, doesn’t mean it’s valid. He learned that a long time ago.

Summary
Sam is twenty-eight when she realizes that moving ahead in her field means becoming the worst kind of person. As much as she feels the pressure to ice over, to form a steel-plated exoskeleton, she can’t do it. She tosses and turns and eventually calls Josh Lyman.
Always-a-girl!Sam gender swap AU. Exactly what it says on the tin.

Summary
The office lobby they’re sitting in has a glossy Jackson Pollock print blown up on the wall. Richard recognizes it as a Pollock because his last therapist had the same print hanging over her receptionist’s desk, and he supposes he’s developed a sort of Pavlovian anxiety response to beige and turquoise splatters.

Summary
She can see Cersei's jaw shift, the grind of her teeth nearly audible in the empty restroom (or is that her imagination too?). Her heartbeat sharpens in her chest. Yes, Joffrey is so much like his mother.
Modern/American politics AU. An encounter with the First Lady that leaves Margaery stirred, if not shaken.

Don’t think about your sister. Don’t think about the things you said to each other before she disappeared. Don’t think that she might be out there somewhere. Don’t think that she probably still hates you. Don’t think about your sister.

Summary
But Leslie's smile is encouraging, and he's had a glass and a half of wine, and so he takes a deep breath and lays it all out without stopping. His siblings, so much like Frank Baum characters - one without a brain, one without a heart, one without a hand.
Set post-series for AD, pre-series for Parks.

Summary
The difference between them is that Dennis builds walls to keep things out. To keep people out. Mac’s walls are there to hold things in. And either way, they’re crumbling, and it’s going to be a fucking mess when they finally fall to pieces.

Summary
“I tell you that your hair looks good when it looks like shit! I let you use my gym membership and my Netflix account! I don’t understand what about me doesn’t say ‘five stars’! God’s sake, Mac, what else do you want me to do? Blow you?”
The answer, obviously, is yes.
