Summary
She could try to assemble these bits of knowledge into a father, but she would fail. It is like building a man out of spare parts: a lock of hair here, a patch of skin there. You can make a serviceable figure. It can walk around and sit and speak with you. But when you try to put its heart in, all you can find is a brick wall.
She went to England to see her father while he lived, in case the rebels killed him. She left thinking, I have seen all I will see of him, even if he lives another fifty years.
[28 July 1540. Five people who got on with their day, and one who didn’t.]

Summary
He wants to make Viserys leave the room and not speak to him for a week. He wants to say, How dare you even suggest it. Do you know me at all? He wants to say, Do not look at me like that. I am your elder. I am your king.
He wants to collapse against his brother, tell him all his fears, and be comforted.
[Shortly after Daeron's birth, Baela and Viserys have an idea. Aegon does not like it.]

Summary
The priests would likely say it is not good, to sleep up here in the sky, where the Storm God holds sway, so far from their Drowned God’s domain.
[Aeron, Urri, and Euron, at night and in the day.]

Summary
Jon’s throat felt rough, like soil. “You were hurt.”
Satin’s smile then was wry, nearly sardonic. “I was trying to protect you.” He looked at his hands, black eyes wet in the firelight. “Too late.”
“No, you weren’t,” Jon said.
The last stars winked down.
Jon Snow rises catatonic from his tomb three days into the siege of Hardin’s Tower. Satin, sworn to protect his lord, takes him north of the Wall where the Watch will not look for them.To care for the dead is a thankless task.

Summary
Sansa remembers her mother once telling her something about the love that grows up between two married strangers, slowly and with time: so far, that wisdom has proven correct, though she cannot imagine many people take eight years to have a proper wedding night.

Excellent slowburn, if <2k can be considered slowburn. I really like this Sansa--pragmatic but still a romantic at heart.

Tyrion & Jaime during Sansa's labor. Fun mix of banter & angst. Sansa POV sequel is also very good.

Summary
She is no longer the sort of person to believe in stories, but apparently this does not discount charms: even for things as minor as predicting whether your child will be a boy or a girl. Sansa, Tyrion, one-shot.
