    Summary

    'Say to the court, it glows
    And shines like rotten wood;
    Say to the church, it shows
    What’s good, and doth no good.
    If church and court reply,
    Then give them both the lie.

    Tell potentates, they live
    Acting by others’ action;
    Not loved unless they give,
    Not strong but by a faction.
    If potentates reply,
    Give potentates the lie.'

    After two years in Oldtown, Ser Aethan Velaryon returns home, only to find all is not as it seems—his brother’s marriage to Princess Rhaenyra is a sham, and his father's decisions have his family teetering on the edge of mutiny. When his wife gives birth to a silver-haired son, Aethan realises what’s truly at stake.

    Lady Lynesse Hightower followed her husband back to Driftmark, and is displeased by what she finds. As Otto Hightower’s daughter, she has always had ambitions, and now with nephews in the line of succession and a son whose silver hair gives the lie to a princess’s deception, Lynesse is ready to realise them.

    But court is a treacherous place, where southron lords breed their conspiracies and honour weighs a man down. Can Aethan and Lynesse elevate their kin or will they fail at the great game?

    Summary

    They say that Targaryens were considered closer to gods than men. For the fire and ashes that ran through their veins, the dragons they commanded, and the deaths that trailed in their wakes. But a man is still a man, no matter what madness lies in their blood.

    And really—what is a dragon, to a demigod with weaponized daddy issues?

    Summary

    Jaemin hasn’t stopped thinking about Donghyuck since Jeju.

    He surprises himself with that. He’s used to sleeping with girls and moving on, never wanting to get attached. But Donghyuck is a bit fucked up in the same way he is–even though they’re not officially family until the wedding, it’s like they’re made of the same stuff.

    He’s intrigued.

    Summary

    It starts like a bit.
    Then it becomes a habit.
    Then the whole internet starts asking if Mark and Donghyuck are in love on main—and honestly?

    They’re not denying it.

     

    “You’re mine, right?”
    “Since the beginning.”

     

    Or, a slowburn Twitch streamer fic about flirting, denial, soft domesticity, and saying I love you in every way but out loud—until they finally do.
