    Summary

    Baelor Breakspear survives Ashford by an inch of bone, and Dunk rides to Summerhall with Egg as his squire. Dunk keeps waiting for Prince Maekar to remember he's supposed to hate him and throw him out. Any day now, surely. He'd stake his sword on it.

    Little did he know, he'd lose his sword.

    While Dunk anxiously awaits his dismissal, the rest of Summerhall; from a convalescing Baelor down to the stable boys; is watching Prince Maekar perform the least self-aware adoption in history, and running a betting pool on when Dunk will realise he's already family.

    (Alternatively: the 7 times Dunk didn't realise he'd become a Maekarling, and +1 time he did.)

    Summary

    “King Baelor now,” Lyonel interrupted his thoughts, and now raised his glass in a toast and urged Dunk to do the same, wine sloshing from glass to glass, red droplets falling upon the table. “Long may he reign and whatnot. Was almost taken by the plague himself, last I heard. Baelor twice-dead they should call him– that blow to the head should’ve been the end of him! He never fully recovered, did you hear? That’s what the dissenters say. A cripple as a king.”

    “He’s not crippled,” Dunk said, fiercely, putting his cup down hard on the table. The relief was heady enough to set his fingers trembling. “And he’ll be a great king. He’s a good man.”

    Summary

    Dunk squeezed his eyes shut, his face burning. “Begging your pardon. I am not comely, your grace. You mock me.”

    “You are mistaken on both counts," Baelor said softly, smiling. "In truth, I thought of little else after you left here. Little save this fresh-faced young knight, as big and strong as an oak, who seemed so eager to please me.”

    Summary

    The poppy was growing stronger now. It was stealing everything away: his pain, his fear, his own tiresome web-weaving. Baelor drifts into the night, unmoored. A lovely comforting image resurfaces in his mind’s eye: a too-tall straw-haired man with storybook charm, stooped by a stone door. His guards and maesters flowing, to and fro, to and fro, black robes and white cloaks, back and forth from his chambers. It is a coursing river, with a seven-pointed star shining above and Baelor at its center. Oaken roots surround him; it is his knight, and he has grown roots all around his prince, thick and fast and sturdy forevermore.

    -----

    What follows after Ashford: the growing plot of the Blackfyre Rebellions; the black dragon, the red dragon and the hedge knight.

    Baelor takes the hit from his brother's mace in the shoulder rather than the head. It isn't a fatal blow; it isn't a trifling matter, either.

    “My nephew, Aegon, lost a toy he was fond of – a wooden horse – on the way here. I would like to see it replaced, lest he sulk for the duration of the tourney.”

    After a quarrel, Aegon loses his favorite toy, and Baelor, being the good uncle that he is, takes effort to replace it, which brings him into contact with a local woodworker, against the backdrop of a celebratory tourney.

    Summary

    It began with small, innocent touches that would paint his cheeks pink, but Baelor never noticed. How could he? The prince was generous and warm. He meant nothing by it, and it was Dunk who made it into an issue. It would have been easy to ignore, only that Duncan was also made to undress him, help him to his bath, and lift his naked boy from the copper tub, all while the tips of his ears flamed hotly and his eyes desperately looked anywhere but at the prince's bare body. He had a duty to care, to protect, and Duncan would see to it, even when Baelor's needs, brought by injuries that Duncan was to blame for, dragged him down an increasingly uncomfortable and strange path.

    Duncan is asked to fulfill his vow to Prince Baelor as his caretaker at Ashford, while the Prince is recovering from his wounds. He slowly comes to find that the honour-bound relationship with his sworn liege Lord is not what he had innocently dreamed of once.

    Summary

    Maekar departed the castle before the second day’s jousting, driven by the need to hunt down his two wayward sons. "Keep an eye on that damn Aerion," he warned, "lest he find a way to trouble you." A dull ache throbbed at the base of Baelor’s skull—a familiar harbinger of impending misfortune. Despite the warning, he sought out Aerion for a word, and the prince pledged, with practiced ease, to cause no trouble at all.
    What is done is done; the rest remains for the gods to judge.

    Summary

    They have thrown the man into the patch of light. He wears dark clothes. Plain. No rings. He has a beard, dark hair. He is in pain, eyes shut tight with it. He's beautiful, or maybe it's been too long since Dunk saw another human who wasn't about to punch him for him to judge beauty properly. Dunk crouches down, touches his shoulder gently. He'd ask if the man was alright, but he isn't.

    “My name's Dunk,” he says quietly instead, still touching the man. “There's a loose stone, three up from the ground, and there's a rat that's good to talk to. Sorry you're here.”

    When Ser Arlan fights for the Crown at Starpike Castle, his squire, Dunk, manages to get himself thrown in a cell by Lord Peake's men. He might have lost track of the days, but he knows one thing: his cellmate is worth protecting with everything he has.

    Summary

    “Has Aerion repeated his… advances?” Baelor asks carefully.

    “Well, he—The prince is…”

    “Like a whore desperate for some coin.”

    “Stubborn.” Ser Duncan finishes, wide-eyed.

    “That too, I suppose,” Baelor says wryly. “I don’t need to tell you to pay him no mind, do I?”

    “No,” The knight denies vehemently. “I won’t disappoint you like that, Your Grace.”

    A pause, after which Baelor hears himself ask as though he’s outside of his body, listening in. He regrets the words as soon as they come out of his mouth. “And if you hadn’t pledged yourself to me?”

    Ser Duncan looks caught, his blush darkening high up in his cheeks. “I have no business doing that with a prince.”

    “And if he wasn’t one?” He presses.

    “I don’t know. Aerion is hateful, but—pretty.”

    “Yes, I suppose so.” Baelor sighs. Aerion is pretty. It’s everything he hides behind that which makes him ugly.

    “You are very handsome as well, Your Grace.” Ser Duncan is quick to reassure him, nodding seriously.

    Inevitably charmed, Bealor has to hide his smile behind his hand.

    Or, Dunk gets two Targaryen squires and finds himself in the middle of a bizarre love triangle.

    Summary

    Maekar’s face was mottled with purple bruising, a deep cut brushing across the bridge of his nose. His skin was sallow and pale, and his hair limp. Up this close, Valarr could see the pitted pox marks hidden behind the silver beard, heavy lines etched in his uncle’s skin from years of strain caused by war, the loss of his wife and his misbehaving children. The lines were deeper now than they were before the trial, before he had swung his mace through his father’s skull.

    Ugly. Was the cruel thought that came to mind. Maekar was not handsome like his father. Was not anything like his father.

    Baelor Targaryen lays close to death in Ashford Castle three days after the Trial of Seven, and Valarr hates his uncle almost as much as he hates himself.

    Summary

    "Ser Duncan," Baelor says kindly. Softly. His voice is as gentle as Duncan remembers it to be. It's a warm timbre that melts like honey and Duncan is sure he can taste it. He can taste the Prince in all the ways he knows he should not. "I've missed the chance to properly greet you, though, I do recall you move quick."

    Duncan knows it is a jest. He’d taken off from Ashford the moment Baelor had risen from his deathbed. He knows it is a jest because it has taken an entire spring for their paths to cross again.

    But Baelor doesn't sound upset. He sounds as if he is smiling and Duncan wishes nothing more than to see, but he refuses. His gaze digs into the sweet cakes, never up at the Prince.

    "Tart cakes," Baelor says, misunderstanding his staring. "You've chosen to wear the eyepatch I’ve given you?"

    *

    In which Baelor survives the Trial, and Duncan is sure putting distance between them will keep the Prince out of harms way.
