    Summary

    He looks at Aerion, resplendent and armed and entirely without need of him, the small, priceless, dark, glittering jewel burning cold at his ear and his throat bare and unclaimed above it, and he thinks that of all the shining company gathered in this hall, the one thing not a soul here has the least use for is the one thing Dunk knows how to be.

    (Or: Aerion is confronted with a new Lyseni suitor, and Dunk is confronted with all the things he cannot provide. Readable on its own but best read after the first part of this series.)

    Summary

    In a world where the Great Bastards were of an age to Daeron II Targaryen, his son Maekar, at age two, was given to Daemon Blackfyre as a ward in an effort to maintain stability within the realm.

    Fifteen years later, Maekar is sent to live at Dragonstone alongside his widowed older brother, after having fought for the rebels during the Rebellion.

    Baelor is grappling with a grief-stricken son and a realm in disarray. Maekar is traumatized from a childhood spent in a household where he was unwanted and unloved. It takes a while before it stops being a disaster.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” he said, stepping closer to his brother. “For upsetting you, a moment ago. It was not my intention.”

    “It’s never your fucking intention,” Maekar bit out. He turned his face away from his brother, and with how tight his voice and shoulders were, he thought the omega was biting back tears. “Yet you wound me. Why did you come?”

    Baelor comes to finally visit his brother's children, and has a lot of feelings about it.

    Summary

    Eighteen years ago, Snare was a shining star, the biggest up-and-coming rock band to emerge out of Sunspear. That was eighteen years ago. Back then, Baelor was the other half of his soul, and Aerys and Rhaegel were his arms and his legs. But that had not been true for years. Maekar could have counted on his ten fingers how many times he’d seen Baelor since their band broke up.

    Or the one where Maekar travels to Tyrosh for his nephew’s wedding. While there, he learns that some doors never shut fully, despite how hard he kicked them closed.
