    Summary

    At five and ten, Rhaenyra plays the game of thrones.

     

    Dance of the Dragons Fix-it | The Dance never happens

    Chapter 11 preview, Rhaenyra VI:

     

    The revelry was tiring instead of rewarding, for there was something she had been anxious to attend to. At the foot of the raised table where the rest of the family sat, stood Ser Criston; watchful and loyal, his presence never strayed far from his Queen. This dedication was nothing more but a bitter reminder that come morning, she must make a decision and remove him from service.

    It would be the first time she’ll ever be directly responsible for someone else’s fate. Treason warranted death as punishment, yet she could not give it in clear conscience — Ser Criston had indeed followed her orders under her own less than noble interest. He had been loyal, to a point.

    Yet, she knew what she must do. No complication would stand in her way; not now, not ever, even if she had to hide the blood under her fingernails.

    On the morrow, Ser Criston would be gone.

    Summary

    Perhaps in madness, Alicent had refashioned Rhaenyra as a witch—that would explain why, when the tip of the princess’ tongue landed in the crevice between hand and wrist, Alicent felt the movement below her stomach. Perhaps Rhaenyra had disembodied her, scrambled her. Distantly, she was grateful: now a man would never split her open.

    There are things Alicent knows, and many more she forgets.

    "I thought you could go to her and offer her comfort."

    "In her chambers…? I… I wouldn't know what to say…”

    Summary

    “Your whole war, based on a bedtime story. You usurp my throne without the slightest idea what it means.” Rhaenyra’s words are vicious, but her tone is soft. She’d been so soft-spoken in the sept. Though there was a knife in her hand there had almost been a gentleness to the way she held Alicent’s wrist, dressed in the drab garb of the septas and still so striking. It’s a wonder nobody recognized her from sheer magnetism alone.

    “I did what I thought was best for the realm.”

    The blade kisses Alicent’s neck. She can feel the pain in a detached, dreamlike way, the shallow slice of a sharpened edge across the vulnerable skin of her throat.

    “Liar,” Rhaenyra whispers.

    OR

    Alicent is haunted by so many things, her own decisions chief among them. Why not add Rhaenyra’s visit in the sept?

    Summary

    “She was about to be killed,” Rhaenyra cuts in, quick.

    “That’s your excuse? You could have called for a guard. Kept your distance. But you didn’t.” Daemon’s voice dips, almost amused. “You put your hands on her like—” He breaks off with a low laugh. “Seven hells, Rhaenyra.”

    Summary

    It’s a downright demeaning way to live, she inherently knows this. Alicent used to think one day she would let the guilt get the best of her and end this thing between them before it even really got started, but she’s come to realize over the last few months how weak she is.

    It makes her feel dizzy to realize how afraid she is, and how despite that fear, she does it anyway. Gives in time and time again, like Rhaenyra is not a spoiled brat and instead some undeniable force of nature.

    (Or, where time and time again Rhaenyra proves she is far from being scrupulous to get what she wants, and time and time again Alicent proves she can’t deny what she undeniably wants.)

    Summary

    "Mother also says you're not friends anymore. Why?"

    When Alicent lowered her gaze to Joffrey, she read no reproach in the little boy's eyes, merely innocent curiosity. Why weren't they friends anymore? There had been so much pain, so many elements beyond her control that had led to this situation that Alicent had never clearly dared ask herself the question, as if the answer couldn't possibly be simple anyway. And yet the words came to her naturally, like a breath too long held in her lungs.

    "Because we hurt each other, mutually."

    "Why?"

    "Because it was so decided."

    "I don't understand," muttered the child.

    "I don't understand either," was all Alicent could reply.

    It had been four years since Driftmark, since Aemond's lost eye and Rhaenyra's blood. Four years to pray and forget.

    Four years after Driftmark, when Alicent thought she had finally forgotten, the maester announced that little Jaehaerys' lungs were sick and that only Dragonstone's sea air could cure him. And, once again, Alicent was forced to remember, to confront a past that was far too heavy, an echo of all she had lost.

    Summary

    The Main Course #77-B class is forced to watch their own story change drastically from the moment they first meet their substitute teacher, Yukizome Chisa, and Hinata Hajime when he first meets the SHSL Gamer, Nanami Chiaki.

    They’ll be sad to miss all the highs that would happen if not for their predicament,

    And be worse when they know the lows that would also.

    Hajime thinks he will watch it as an outsider for some reason, but he has more of an impact on their story than he could ever expect.

    Way more than he could ever wish.

    Or: Hajime and and the 77th class watch the shit go down

    Summary

    She builds him up (how do you make a monster a human?), comforts him, wants his eyes on her and her only (you give them someone to love), and then, then (how do you make a human a monster?)...

    (you take away who they love)

    she
    tears
    him
    down.

    She destroys him (you make them destroy it). Utterly and completely, because when she is with him he makes her feel human, and it scares her. (she is a normal girl with him and that scares her). He makes her want to give up, conform, be sweet and docile and normal and she hates it, hates it, hates it—

    Docile, good girls? They die first (just ask Chiaki Nanami). And Junko Enoshima is final girl material.

    She destroys him, she destroys herself, she destroys that sandcastle, as she sobbed on skinned knees and begged with Yasuke to save her.

    Stupid girl—monsters never get saved.

    Summary

    Ever since the 74th Hunger Games, Johanna Mason’s entire existence has been a compared metric to Katniss Everdeen.

    Katniss is the Mockingjay; Johanna is disposable.
    One became a symbol. The other abandoned, captured, and tortured.

    Through it all, Johanna remains a cockroach – impossible to kill despite the many times she should’ve died, resilient, an annoying pest to most, and dirty. But that’s the thing people forget about cockroaches, that being impossible to kill means you’re still alive afterward.

    And surviving is only the beginning.

    Summary

    "We were the Ultimate Despair, ya know? So we never had any kind of hope, or expectations. No, I've felt despair as long as I can remember, like I never should have been born at all. When I was born, I cried tears of total despair. So that's why for us, it's not a big deal whether we die or kill! We're just those kinds of people. We can do anything! We've always been filled with despair, so when we do something, we go all the way and live without regret!"

    That impassioned lie almost fooled Junko as convincingly as it did her slack-jawed classmates. Almost. The truth wasn't forgiving enough to let her forget that she-they hadn't always been obsessed with despair. For now, Junko was the only one left to remember those dreamlike days. Once she presses that red button, those memories would be lost forever.

    (This story can be read as a standalone, without any prior experience with my previous works.)

    Summary

    Yasuke was dead under her foot, his blood staining the leather of her boot. Any possibility of a life with him was completely gone, lost forever. It was terribly tragic. It was positively exhilarating. She wanted to scream. She wanted to laugh. Her heart was pounding. Her chest was burning.

     

    She missed him already.

    Junko reflects on the murder of Yasuke Matsuda.
