a new verse for an old song by Cassia_Bea

Summary
A crack.
Then another.
And another.
At first, he thinks mice, but mice does not scratch like that, does not make a noise like that.
Have you seen them, ser?
Dunk stands. He walks, he carefully, slowly walks. His feet meet soft, cold carpet and there are beads if sweat running down his brows, dropping off his chin.
Smoke. There is smoke.
But no fire. Nothing of sort.Not yet, something seems to murmur. Not yet.
Dunk comes to stand in front of the cradle. He hesitates.
Watch them. Watch and see them, ser.
Dunk follows the Targaryens to Summerhall.
And he finds more than just the metaphorical dragons.As new eyes open, it brings about a change that is both hoped and dreaded in equal measure, but more importantly, like a new verse added to the old song, it is something needed by the House of the Dragon.

Summary
The realm is familiar with soulmates and the bonds between them. Having one was seen as a blessing. Two is a rarity.
Dunk dreamed of being a knight and also meeting his two soulmates. Unable to read the names on his skin, Dunk could only hope to meet by chance and for a happy ending sung in songs and stories as the dragons slowly close in.

"I- I- Lily, listen to me. Listen to me, please-"
"There's nothing more we can do."
"He will kill you!"
"Then he'll kill me, Severus!"
"Please. Please, convince James to break the oath. If he knows- if he knows, maybe he'll change his mind."
"Break the oath? Break the oath? You're smart enough to know, Sevie-"
"I don't want you to die!"
- The Pensieve memory of Lily Evans and Severus Snape, September 29th, 1981.Harry Potter was born a freak. He always knew that. The addled orphan of drug addicted parents, dropped off at his respectable relatives’ house, only for them to go on and die in a car crash. It was alright. One day he was going to be a zookeeper, probably. Or just something that worked with snakes.

Ugh soo good. Slightly frustrating amount of shifty stuff going on that no one is doing anything but that's by design.

Summary
Lyonel’s post-tournament hangovers rarely had anything to do with the amount of spirits he’d consumed.
Even though it left Lyonel feeling like the ass end of a mule, there was nothing like days on end of having his blood up, of tearing through the lists against any alpha, beta, or omega that was brave enough to tap his shield. The noise, the chaos, the crash-splinter of lances and the bone-jarring impact of melee weapons, all of it helped alleviate the storm perpetually trapped underneath Lyonel’s skin.
Lyonel leaves Ashford without fanfare, without answers, and without Duncan.
Or so he thought.

Summary
“Would be safer,” continued Rowan, “If we had a guard, of sorts. A knight, even. One who we knew wouldn’t try us, but could scare off an alpha. Or knock them into the dirt,” she finished with a grin.
Duncan stared at her as the three of them stared back at him. Daisy had a big grin on her face, Beony with her dark brows raised, and Rowan with a look of pure satisfaction on her face, the cat that caught the canary.
