Summary
"Alicent finally lifted her head, smiling just a bit, and saw Rhaenyra studying her with blatant interest. The boldness of it surprised her, and she struggled not to duck once more, her face aflame.
'I- I would be most honored, and most grateful to accept, your Grace.' Her father's hand pinched at her, and Alicent's spine stiffened. 'We thank you for your courtesy, my Princess. My King.'
Applause broke out amid the Court, and Rhaenyra smiled at her. A full, unguarded smile. Alicent did duck her head then, her face redder than the Keep, but her father did not notice this time.
The Hightowers had been welcomed back home."
OR
The Princess will have what she wants, and all she wants is Alicent.

Summary
The Blacks have won and the council wants Rhaenyra wed. She could take a Lannister, or a Baratheon, some sensible girl with gold behind her. Instead she decides to channel Aegon the Conqueror and take two wives — for political reasons, of course. Alicent, the intended first wife, disagrees.

Summary
[“I do not intend to kill you, Alicent,” she managed to utter.
Her tongue was molten glass in her mouth. She lifted a hand to the wall of cell for support and found it sticky with moisture. Fighting the urge to turn around and leave the cramped space, she turned her eyes to the curled-up silhouette.
Alicent choked on her next breath, a noise clawed out of her stripped of its humanness. It sounded so terribly tired.
“What good are you to me, then?” Alicent finally whispered, voice as empty as her eyes.
They were still glued to the wall on her left, even as her fingers relaxed their grip on the dirty cot to rest, lifeless, by her sides.]
OR
Rhaenyra knows what history will remember of Alicent. She has trouble remembering the same.

Summary
But to Alicent's eyes she was lost, as she watched her trembling frame straighten up at the sight of her, eyes boring into hers, as if asking, do you see me now? Do you see what I have become? she realized that this was the biggest, the most consuming feeling of loss she had felt.
Alicent has seen Rhaenyra's cold gaze following her after she married Viserys. She remembered how the girl looked at her with disdain, how her words were more bitter than her actions. All these years of anger, hatred, denial and yet, for the first time in her life, Alicent could not recognize her anymore.
And that realization sends jolts of paralyzing dread through her body. Because, god's be good, if she's lost so is the whole realm.
Or: Few moments between Rhaenyra and Alicent following the fall of King's Landing.

Summary
“She was about to be killed,” Rhaenyra cuts in, quick.
“That’s your excuse? You could have called for a guard. Kept your distance. But you didn’t.” Daemon’s voice dips, almost amused. “You put your hands on her like—” He breaks off with a low laugh. “Seven hells, Rhaenyra.”

Summary
“What’s she like?”
Alicent sighs. “I do not know. We were friends many years ago.”
At least, Alicent likes to think they were friends. But the princess was always sporadic with her attentions— quick to grow bored of things, discarding the old in favor of the new. Alicent supposes that’s what happened to her, as well. She had written letters, those first few moons after she returned to Oldtown.
The princess never responded.
The king is seeking a husband for his omega daughter, so countless lords send their sons to vie for the hand of the future queen.
Alicent is not a son. She is not a knight. Her presentation was surely a mistake, one that’s cost her everything. Now she is her brother’s squire, accompanying him to King’s Landing as he competes for the princess's hand.

Summary
It’s sometimes hard for Rhaenyra to comprehend how much her life has changed as of late.
A year ago she was betrothed to her dear cousin. She was fighting at her uncle’s side in the Stepstones. Slaughtering men by day. Sharing her bed with whores by night.
Rhaenyra thought that would be her lot in life. She was a second child— a forgotten spare in her father’s eyes on the best of days, and a cruel reminder of her mother’s violent death on the worst.
But everything has changed, now. Rhaenyra never knew that life has so much more to offer.

Summary
“It makes me feel like a princess,” she admitted. “Just like in the stories. A fair maiden locked away in a far-off turret. Knowing that any strapping young knights wanting to court me will have to earn their way past the fierce, jealous dragon who guards my door. It’s quite comforting.”
Rhaenyra grinned sleepily. “A princess in a what now?”
Incredible. She could actually hear Alicent rolling her eyes. “In a high tower, yes, you’re very clever, Rhaenyra. Gods, why do I talk to you.”

“And the Queen.”

“I think this will be loathsome, and I would like to get it over with as quickly as possible.”
Arthur ran a hand through his beard. “What does ‘quickly’ mean in the context of time travel? One could be gone for a decade and then come back exactly the moment they left! Or they could be gone for five minutes and be back five years later!”
Ayda just barely resisted taking a page out of Adaine’s book and punching her dad as hard as she could in the face.

Or: Ayda and Arthur Aguefort go on a trip through time to bond. Ayda is angry. Arthur is trying his best. A Time Quangle is possibly unraveled.

“So what are you doing here?”
His eyes catch hers for a moment, and the words in them are not what come out of his mouth.
“Distraction,” he says, looking away at last. “A detour.”“A detour on the way to what?”
“Away,” he says, flitting a smile at her that could cut glass. “I did what I was told.”
