Summary
When Aegon Targaryen returned to King’s Landing he declared for all to hear, “The time of hiding is done. Let the ravens fly that the realm may know the pretender is dead, and their true king is coming home to reclaim his father’s throne.” It seemed then, to the smallfolk, that the war was over, but leal men and women answered Aegon’s challenge with force, Starks and Arryns and Darklyns riding under a queenless banner to unseat the Usurper. Though Black victory was nigh, the succession remained deep in doubt until the day a ghost arose from the waters of the Gullet. “The time of hiding is done,” came his answer, a mockery of Aegon’s words, “And the true king is coming home to reclaim his mother’s throne.”
Thus was the bloody beginning of an otherwise long and peaceable reign. He would wear many epithets throughout his rule; the Black, the Undead, the Dragonless, even the Strong, from those intent on losing their tongues. The king’s favorite moniker, however, was one reserved for those who knew him best: Jace.

Summary
On Monday business is as usual with Marga Bolton, while Tuesday is all paperwork and no meetings. Wednesday starts out fine for about twenty minutes, until he realizes it’s officially been a week since The Phone Call... Jace gets to call himself one week older while Luke’s the exact same age he’ll be for the rest of eternity.
That thought drives Jace to the only bar in town.
It's a dive in every sense of the word. The handful of tables are always sticky, the lighting is never set above “slight visibility”, and there’s a shotgun mounted above the bar for "emergencies". The first time he’d ordered a drink, the big guy behind the bar had raked him over with a gaze so discerning Jace had flushed to the tips of his ears. He’d either deemed Jace legal or decided he didn’t care enough either way because he never asked for ID, and a few minutes’ conversation with a regular had told Jace several pieces of useful information: bartender’s name is Cregan, yes he’s always like that, no you can’t pay with a credit card.

Summary
Baela Targaryen — Queen Who Never Was like her grandmother before her, and Princess of Dragonstone no more — takes one step closer. In their proximity, Baela can see the stern set of his face dissolve into puzzlement as she reaches up, fists one hand in the furs upon his shoulder, and begs, “Take me as your wife, Lord Stark. Share with me your weirwood gods and frozen halls, and allow me to ride and hunt and hawk as any man does. Whisk me north of the Neck before they stuff me in a gown and sell me to some fat southron lord to be bred like cattle.”
Already seeing the refusal taking shape on his lips, Baela curls her free hand into Cregan’s other shoulder, holds him in an iron grip, and leans so close their lips nearly brush. “Marry me, Lord Stark, and have me as you could never have him.”

[This is pretty much entirely F&B compliant, and spoiler-heavy for the end of the Dance. You don’t HAVE to have read the book for this fic to make sense (I hope) but if you’re not keen on spoilers, then this isn’t the one for you. If you don’t care or you already know what happens, then by all means…read away :)]

Summary
Some days Cregan can hardly bear to look upon Rickon, but other days he thinks that perhaps the life his son took so unwittingly was not lost…Not wholly, at least, not when Arra so clearly lives on through her child.
Cregan has no such reminders of Jacaerys. It is all he can do to hold onto a living remnant of one of his dead, to remind himself that although he has lost time and again, the gods have not taken everything.

Summary
There is a long, horrible moment wherein the only movement is the falling snow around them and the barely perceptible twitch of Jacaerys' lips. Nobody could ever think Cregan cruel enough nor humorous enough to jest of such a thing, yet clear as day he can see that painful sliver of a second between Jacaerys' ears hearing the words and his heart sensing the truth of them.
The grief that tears across the prince’s expression is so sudden, so raw, that Cregan has to look away.

Summary
“I’m not- jealous” Nancy can’t help but snap. She knows Robin doesn’t have any bad intentions but, god, is she tired of hearing what she wants from anyone but herself. She doesn’t even know what she wants. Who she wants. She should have a choice, now that this is all over, she should have options.
“Right, yeah because you and Jonathan are still going strong and all that, I know. I’m just saying that, in some hypothetical scenario where you were jealous, you didn’t have to be”
“Except that I’m not”
OR
Nancy is a mess and Robin tries to help. Things don't go as planned.

Summary
"I can tell you what I am not uncertain of," she whispered, reaching for his hand. His palms were sweaty and she could feel the beginning of callouses forming from his many hours in the training yard. She inhaled sharply through her nose before staring into his eyes. "We should get married. Now."

Summary
“The doctor should be back soon to splint your wrist,” Jace said quietly as he made notes in the chart on the clipboard beside Cregan’s bed.
“Then I think I’ll be needing your belt back,” Cregan said, something sly in his tone.
Jace stifled a laugh, eyes focusing on the chart in his hands, refusing to make eye contact, lest he say something stupid. Wordlessly, he set the clipboard down and undid his belt once more, folding it in half and pressing it into Cregan’s good (less bad) hand.
or, Cregan is an injured american solider in WWII, and Jace is his battlefield nurse.

Summary
Amongst the many ways of celebrating a new monarch, none is quite so popular as a tourney. For Rhaenyra it is not only a chance to show her appreciation for her own family but to unify the Houses under the crown once more, forging connections and good-will where, perhaps, there was seldom any to be found in the past: By allowing various lords and ladies to declare themselves for one participant, to support them and to lend them their favours should the knight accept and vie for their attentions in the week the tourney.
Aemond Targaryen has never seen the appeal of tourneys before. This one, with his uncle Daemon and nephew Jacaerys as fellow participants, gives him the opportunity to grind their faces in the dirt. He does not care about anything else and no one would declare him their chosen anyways.
That is until Aegon Targaryen leaves the entirety of court speechless the night before the tourney, declaring himself for none other than his brother.

Summary
It’s the wedding night of Lord Cregan Stark and Princess Baela Targaryen. A most useful union, which will provide each one with what they most want - Baela her title as Heir, Cregan the conclusion of his Pact.
Yet, they are to be pitied. They will never know the love of a soulmate again, for theirs is dead and buried under the waves. Any affection they share will only ever be a fraction of what was meant to be - a gentle warmth where there once was a scorching fire. That is known.
Set in an AU where a soulmate’s touch is unmistakable - it burns.
