Summary
alicent hightower grew up watching princess rhaenyra targaryen of valyria from a distance; through headlines, scandals, and her head-of-the-global-council father's word-of-mouth. in adulthood, she's assigned to oversee the peaceful transition of power in valyria to find that rhaenyra targaryen is precisely as intractable as the media and her father promised—
and far, far more dangerous to the order alicent has built her entire life around.
(or; a modern royalty au with political optics, assassinations, absolutely no geographical accuracy, and a doomed sense of professionalism)

Summary
Dez anos podem transformar uma vida inteira. Carreiras consolidadas, novos caminhos e silêncios cuidadosamente construídos parecem suficientes para deixar o passado onde ele pertence. Ou pelo menos é isso que Alanis e Gabriela tentaram acreditar.
Separadas por escolhas, pelo medo e pelo peso de tudo o que nunca tiveram coragem de viver, aprenderam a conviver com a ausência uma da outra. Até que uma única noite — e algumas palavras ditas diante de milhões de pessoas — fazem o passado deixar de ser lembrança e voltar a exigir respostas.
Entre arrependimentos, verdades guardadas por tempo demais e sentimentos que sobreviveram ao tempo, elas descobrem que algumas histórias não terminam quando acabam. Apenas permanecem em silêncio, esperando que alguém tenha coragem de abrir a porta.
Porque existem amores que o tempo adormece, mas nunca leva.

“You lied to me,” is what she is greeted with. “I texted Bronwyn and she said she was home. I didn’t ask her to let me in because you clearly don’t want me to. Why?”
The way her voice shakes genuinely startled Emily. She really hadn’t thought this through.
“Let’s just go back to meeting up outside, Sachs. We can’t–”
“Stop that.”
“What?”
“Calling me Sachs. That feels like you’re pushing me away.”or
Andrea slotted into her life, her routine, with such ease. And when her kids started to become more dependent on her…
Emily spiraled.

Summary
“Mmhm,” Emily hums, angling her body away so that she is giving faux smiles at guests who are walking past her and smiling at her, “I for one would never be jealous,”
Andrea finds that hard to believe, so she narrows her eyes and says, “You’ve never been jealous in your entire life?”
Emily waves at a guest politely and answers Andrea without looking at her. “Never.”
or in other words : Emily thinks it is silly for Andy to be jealous when another woman flirts with her, not knowing that three weeks later, she would find herself in the same situation when a man flirts with Andy in front of her.
