    Summary

    It's been three days since Ser Duncan got his white cloak. Three days since he'd been named Prince Aerion’s sworn protector.

    Dunk despises him.

    But Aerion’s eyes are so terribly pretty.

    (In which hatred is easy, and everything else that follows is not).

    Summary

    “You’re sure?”

    Dunk meets his eye.

    “Write it down,” Aerion mimics, his impression of a low, grumbling Irish brogue. Licks his bottom lip.

    The answer ends up being correct. Aerion discovers this at the end of the round when Arlan reads them back. Dunk says nothing, but his knee, which has now been resting against Aerion’s for the past two minutes presses once. Briefly, then is still.

    Tanselle takes a long sip of her drink, rolls her eyes at the ceiling.

    Daeron Targaryen has finally landed a gig (fuck yeah!). Fifty quid a night, five weeks, one pub in North London wedged between a fried chicken place and somewhere called Fun Pizza. His brother travels an hour on the tube to be there and is, allegedly, there to record. The bar guy is six foot six.

    Nobody panic.

    Or: a very realistic love story set in modern-day London.

    Summary

    "What are you saying?" Maekar demanded. "You are telling me my son is already dead."

    "I am offering a choice, Prince Maekar," the maester stammered, pulling a scalpel out of his satchel.

    The blade caught the flickering candlelight, wickedly sharp. "A horrific choice. We can wait for him to wake. But, it is a fatal gamble. If the fire returns, he will die screaming."

    The maester slowly lowered it, pointing towards the lower half of Aerion's spine.

    "Or… I take my blade, and I intentionally sever the spinal cord. I cut the nerves dead."


    Aerion receives the blow of the mace, and Maekar has to choose between killing the body or killing the spirit. Whatever the outcome is, Dunk is charged to mend the broken dragon. Inspired by Me Before You.
