    Summary

    “Come and join us, priest.” The woman Athelstan had heard called Lagertha stood before him, wrapped in fur with skin peaking out around the edges. Ragnar was beside her, naked as the day he was born, eyes glistening in the candlelight. Athelstan had lived closely with his brother monks, labored and lived in close proximity, so he was no stranger to the naked male form, though less familiar with one of Ragnar’s physique; hard and toned from the labor of battle as well as the field, but Athelstan had never seen so much of a woman before.

    Ragnar was beside him before he noticed the move, stretched along the wall to gaze at his wife from Athelstan’s angle. “She is beautiful, yes?” Though his face was turned away, Athelstan figured what look was upon the man’s face as Lagertha directed it right back to her husband. “You want to touch her?” Ragnar turned back to him as he asked, sharp blue eyes piercing him through the dark.

    He wanted to touch her. Forgive me, Lord.

    Summary

    As the flames burned her, Rhaenyra Targaryen finally understood she had lost. She had lost her life, her children, her husband and her kingdom.

    So when she woke up again in her maiden bed, five and ten once more, her first thought was to not let that happen again. She had lived an entire life that she couldn't repeat. A life she had to renounce if she were to win her crown and keep it.

    She would make different decisions, and paths she wouldn't have taken, and change what she could. Prophecy, duty or love couldn't block her way to victory once again. But could she do it? Could she push away every source of happiness in her first life?

    Could she renounce to everything to get the crown even if she was called a monster and a tyrant again?

    Could she stop being human? Or would she burn away what was left of herself in pursuit of her crown?

    Summary

    For Debbie there's three things she's loves; being loved, jewelry, and committing homicide.

    Who would expect that joining the Addams family would allow her to indulge in all three?

    (Or Debbie actually notices how well she fits in)
