    Summary

    When Caitlyn releases one hand to cup under Vi’s jaw, tilting her head up until their noses are brushing— she knows this is where they’re going to meet their destiny: on a path forked like a snake’s tongue. For better or for worse.

    “Why have we never kissed?” Caitlyn asks, mouths so close that Vi can feel her words.

    Vi’s fist tightens on her back, crumpling the material of her tank top in it. “Because we shouldn’t.”

    Summary

    Summary

    “Why? What is it about me you find so interesting?” Alicent asked, unable to think of anything about her that would intrigue a fae this much.

    “I’m not sure. I could say it’s because of your cleverness, although I haven’t been trying very hard to trick you,” the fae admitted, “though I have a sense you would dance around any word traps I tried to set.”

    Alicent looked at her hands folded in her lap. “You give me too much credit.”

    “I’ve yet to be proven wrong though,” the fae shot back. Then, she went silent for a moment, and Alicent could feel eyes roaming over her face. “I could also say it’s because you’re beautiful. Us fair folk have always held an appreciation for beauty in all its forms.”

    or, after learning of a change to the arranged marriage Alicent has been preparing for all her life, she delves deep into the Hightower gardens to try and calm herself. She finds something, or rather, someone unexpected there.

    aka all the Targaryen/Valyrian weirdness would make a lot of sense if they were faeries
