    A wonderful encapsulation of what I like about these characters

    Summary

    And even if getting Rhaenyra in as a soloist was a staggering show of nepotism, she was still the best concert pianist on the planet. It was like when Dmitri Junior recorded Shostakovich’s second. You could get mad about it for a bit, but it was ultimately fair game. Alicent had already reached all these conclusions because Viserys had spoken to her weeks ago about programming the Concerto, which only had the unwanted effect of giving her time to turn it over in her brain like a particularly nauseating Rubix cube. Each solution of the puzzle led her to the same conclusion: she would be seeing Rhaenyra imminently, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.

     

    After ten years apart, Rhaenyra Targaryen re-enters Alicent's life for a set of solo engagements with her orchestra. Things go about as well as expected (not very).

    The character drama was compelling enough for me to forgo my usual dislike of modern Earth pop culture being referenced willy-nilly (it is a necessary evil music-wise)

    Summary

    Jon Arryn, revered and respected Hand of the King, is dead. Though many assume his death to be of natural age, others have suspicions... including his widow, Lady Lysa, who is determined to make up for her strange grief-induced amnesia by being the best damn detective King's Landing has ever seen. With her flair for dramatics, regrettable habit of jumping to wild conclusions, and questionable disregard for law enforcement, what could go wrong? Anything and everything, as it turns out.

    Summary

    “You dreamed that I saved you,” Dan Heng says, quiet. “I just wish that could have been true.”

    Caelus frowns, shaking his head. “I don’t think that’s what I dreamed of.”

    Summary

    “I don’t want to go over the same argument again, White. How long do you plan to hold this grudge? What can I do to make up to you? I’ve already forgiven you for trying to kill me, can’t you do the same?”

    As Snow would expect, the last bit got White’s attention. His twin turned to him, and, without an ounce of waver in his voice, said, “then promise me that you’ll never leave my side ever again, until the day we both turn to stone. Beg on your knees and promise you’ll never deny my requests again.”

    -

    Takes place in an AU where Figaro and Oz stopped Snow and White from killing each other, and the two of them were forced to separate.
