Summary
In the heart of this tiny, quiet town, Alicent feels it fullest: no one knows her here. Not of her father, her husband, or her sins. It’s a limbo, not a new start—and somehow, the most peace she’s known in years.
Rhaenyra ruins all of it so easily, of course.
Alicent turns against her father, leaves an old life, and retreats to a small house by the lake. Rhaenyra simply can't stay away.
Or: what if i betrayed my father to secure your legacy and we were both girls

Summary
“I saw you at a gay club,” is, admittedly, not the strongest way she’s ever started a conversation, especially not with the way it stumbles out of her—awkward and thoughtless.
In front of her, Alicent isn’t even finished sitting down. Rhaenyra doesn’t know what she expects in response—maybe for Alicent to stutter and deny, in shame and in anger, or for her to just end this meeting right at this moment and call it a mistake.
Instead, Alicent flushes instantaneously, all the way to her ears, drops down into her seat, and sighs. “You still haven’t developed any kind of subtlety, have you?”
“My bad,” Rhaenyra tries, giving her a sheepish half-grin.
.
Or: They're childhood friends turned strangers, reconnecting after high school aka Alicent discovers lesbianism and dating mascs, and Rhaenyra has feelings about it.

Summary
“You’re staring.”
“Just thinking, my princess.”
Rhaenyra turned sideways, moving into a position that changed her center of balance and was twice as risky. A few centimeters to the side, Alicent could all but see it - splat on the ground. “Penny for your thoughts?”
“My thoughts are worth far more than that.”

Summary
“Fair play,” Rhaenyra replies, “But you can’t just spend all summer wasting away here, your only friend to speak of being the 30 year old lesbian who cleans your pool.”
“That seems like something you made up just now,” Aegon responds lightly, “Rather than an actual rule.”
or,
After her mugshot makes it into the tabloids, Rhaenyra strikes a deal to keep her inheritance that involves a summer spent working at her cousin's landscaping company. This brings her to the house of delinquent teenager Aegon Hightower and his lonely, high-strung mother.
