    Summary

    When he’s nine, Aerion sneaks out of the Red Keep and meets a hungry boy from Flea Bottom who mocks his fancy accent and treats him like a person instead of a prince. For a brief, impossible season, they become friends. Aerion is sweet and curious and he promises he’ll remember.

    Years later, Dunk finds work on the road and a way into tourneys, while Aerion has grown into the court’s shining threat, cruel, untouchable, and practiced at turning people into lessons. When they meet again, Aerion recognizes Dunk immediately, and acts like he’s found something that belongs to him.

    Summary

    Beneath King’s Landing, wildfire awaits.

    “Drink,” the voice whispers.

    When Aerion does, the prince burns away.

    The city trembles as something ancient rises in his place, and only one man dares stand before its fire.

    “Easy, my prince,” Duncan says. “It’s me.”

    Or: that 1% improbable chance Aerion was right all along, and the rest of us were very, very wrong. Yes, the twink is actually a dragon...

    Summary

    “I just don’t understand why you would go through all this trouble just so I could see that you have changed,” Dunk asked, bewildered.

    Aerion looked… forlorn. There was a distance in his lavender eyes, as though they were veiled by an invisible fog. He blinked it away and met Duncan’s gaze, a soft smile replacing his brief melancholy.

    “Do you truly not know, Ser?”
    ~~~
    Nine years after Ashford, Prince Aerion Brightflame devises a careful plan to make Ser Duncan the Tall devote himself to him completely: gifts, proximity, patience, and eventually seduction.

    What begins as obsession slowly mutates into something far more dangerous. Because the more Aerion tries to win Duncan through manipulation, the more he changes into the sort of man Duncan could genuinely start to develop feelings for.

    Unfortunately for him, Ser Duncan is far too oblivious to notice any of this until it is far too late.

    Summary

    Sung Jin-Woo is still the Shadow Monarch and he still grows in power unlike any other hunter. However, he doesn't have the system to back him up. He is a reawakened hunter with the skill to create undead shadow soldiers without any cheats or instant healing. Bearing the injuries of the double dungeon must fight the trials ahead of him with far more public scrutiny than before.

    In other words

    Solo leveling but there's no system and Jin-Woo responds to things like a real person who has emotions. He's still OP but not nearly to the level as in canon. He functions with the same worldbuilding as all the other Hunters in the setting, with things taking a pretty different course in the long run.
