Summary
For the briefest moment, Alicent had felt warm. Alive in her own body. Like pulling back a curtain ever so slightly and seeing a brilliant sliver of light cut through the dark. Knowing that there is more, that beyond the curtain, there is a sky of brilliant light just waiting to be revealed—
It is hope. A terrible thing. So distressingly fragile, spinning into a thousand delicate possibilities. The possibility of more clasped hands, more kind words. Rhaenyra, back in her life. Not an enemy, not at odds with her. Maybe… maybe impish Rhaenyra, stealing her books. Telling her about Old Valyria. Her dearest friend. A light beyond the curtain.
OR
What happens when D'Cooke's vision of Rhaenicent ruling together inspires a 180k fix-it. Canon-divergence starts from s1e8. Instead of dying and ruining everything, Vizzy does everyone in Westeros a solid and hangs in there long enough for our ladies to reconcile and prepare to co-queen. Alternating POVs with dual POVs for the first and final chapters. If there are specific TWs for a chapter I will include them in the AN.

Summary
You’re not meant to rule.
No, you’re meant to be a cautionary tale—to be the example, like your uncle before you. You’re the uncontrolled brightness of a pyre left to burn itself out. You’re contained only by altering everything around you—clearing the brush, stacking the rocks, arranging the sticks, and keeping far away from the inciting spark. The consuming blaze.
You’re overlooked, overseen, and underestimated—the Realm’s Delight, the Rogue Princess, the only thing worse than a second son. A firstborn daughter.
.
or; baelon lives, and rhaenyra tries a little harder at being a knight, that includes wooing her lady love.

Summary
Michaela Stirling returns from four years in India to find the life she fled exactly where she left it, John's ghost in every corridor, and Francesca at the top of the stairs.
She had told herself the distance had taught her restraint. That she could stand in the same room as Francesca Bridgerton and call herself only a friend. That four years and an ocean were enough to make loving someone bearable.
She had been wrong on all counts.
Or
michaela and francesca spend several chapters inventing new ways to avoid admitting the obvious.

Summary
Seventeen years ago, the Empire destroyed the planet Alderaan - but Alderaan did not die in a day. Sixteen years ago, Cinta Kaz’s father built a ship and sent his only daughter away from their dying world in a last desperate hope to save her.
Now, Cinta spends her days flying above Coruscant, using the extraordinary powers gifted to her by Earth’s sun to help people wherever she can.
When a massive storm unearths a piece of her ship that sends out a signal intercepted by the Empire, it’s only a matter of time before the ones who destroyed her world and her people find her new home. Cinta must face her own past while struggling more and more to keep her secret identity safe from Vel Sartha—her co-worker at the Daily Star newspaper, and the woman she’s falling for, who’s getting closer and closer to the truth.

Summary
“We need your help to access the Road. The Witches’ Road.”
For a very long moment, everything is still.
Then, Ava’s laughter fills the room.
Yes, Ava knows about the Road. And it is true that she is probably one of three people currently alive on Earth who know how to access it. But she also knows, doing so is a death wish. She knows only of one Coven that managed to access it, and of one person who survived it; and it has been centuries since then.
“Ah, you need help alright,” she mutters, as the last of her chuckle fades. “That door behind you with ‘Exit’ written on it leads right to it, you can go ahead and walk straight through it. Best of luck. Goodbye, now.”//
Or, Astra and Spooner ask for Ava's help to access the Road. They're missing a Coven, Ava hasn't practiced magic in years, and most of the witches they know hate each other. However, the promise of receiving the thing they seek most is very enticing to all of them; especially those who seek revenge (which is most of them, really).
An AU inspired by Agatha All Along, but this story has its own lore and laws.

Summary
“I can relate.”
Vel arched a single brow, fought back the rising smile.
“Pretty?” She teased.
“Gay.” Cinta’s gaze didn’t move from her. There was no smile on her lips, but as clueless as Vel usually was around gorgeous women, it would be hard to ignore the warmth in those big brown eyes. “Nice to know you think I’m pretty, though.”
Oh. Vel thought. Oh, I'm fucked.
━━━
After Vel’s ex-girlfriend dumps the worst possible surprise on her, Vel is forced to confront her intense feelings for Andor’s Veterinary Surgery’s newest and most emotionally unavailable employee: Dr. Cinta Kaz.

and far, far more dangerous to the order alicent has built her entire life around.

Summary
“You said my name.” Vel breathed out, her voice hoarse.
Cinta ignored her or tried her best to. She carefully cradled Vel's neck in her hands, lifted it to rest against her folded-up jacket, and examined the bloodied mess Saj had made of Vel's face.
Vel's expression cracked into a smile. Blood dribbled down her chin and pooled in the crease of her neck. “You said Vel.”

Or, five times Cinta Kaz worried about Vel Sartha, and the one time she didn't have to.

Summary
A series of flashes in her mind: Rhaenyra’s head in her lap under the weirwood tree, her crystalline eyes alight. Syrax, saddled for two, soaring across the Narrow Sea to worlds unknown. The ripped page she still keeps locked away in her chambers, alongside a piece of her heart.
Alicent can no longer afford to cling to Rhaenyra’s words like a promise. Yet after the longest of winters, there’s something addictive about the possibility of being consumed by dragonfire.
or, Rhaenyra returns on dragonback. Alicent feels her presence like the rising sun. Post-1x08.

Summary
The nightmare started like this:
Vel sat on the steps in Ghorman, legs crossed one over the other, curly hair tied back, hands resting on her knees. A tourist resting after a long flight, bag settled beside her.
One of the aspiring rebels approached, a red cap resting jauntily on a clean-style haircut. He kneels, as if tying his shoes. Familiar words tumble from his lips: “Visiting friends?”
—
Or Vel wakes up or dies or passes out and finds herself back on steps in Ghorman more times than she can count.
