    Summary

    Prince Maekar Targaryen has no patience for courtiers, cowards, or incompetence - and his hounds have already claimed one master.
    Elayne Waters, a bastard with nothing but a stubborn will, arrives to claim the vacant post.

    She has survived worse than snarling hounds.
    He has survived worse than war.
    What begins as a trial of dominance becomes something far more dangerous: trust.

    A character-driven slow burn exploring power, loyalty, grief and the long road from reluctant allies to something neither of them expected.

    Summary

    She would rather bleed out on the floor than inconvenience anybody, and that's exactly what Amina Ingellvar intends to do until Emmrich insists otherwise. He manages to convince her to let him patch her up: he's more than adept with a needle and thread... so why does she feel so nervous?

    Self-indulgent fluff about two morticians that are literally too polite to kiss (to keep me sane and kill time before Veilguard. May be inaccurate/ooc post-release.)

    Summary

    Clio de Riva’s magic is practical, utilitarian, and always in concert with destructive objectives, for the Crows, and now for the Veilguard. Emmrich’s magic is... well, magical. When he lights up his tower with starlight one night, Clio is curious how it’s done. Emmrich indulges her.

     

    “How did you make those?” Clio’s voice parted the drowsy silence of the early morning and hung in the air like a fog.

    Emmrich, without opening his eyes or halting the soft hand running up and down her bare back, hummed inquisitively. “Make what, my dear?”

    “The twinkling lights, the little stars,” she said, pointing up at the cavernous ceiling filled with small but numerous specks of green light, shading the room in an uncannily soothing twilit cast. They had escaped her notice earlier, but now... she had been staring at them for at least half an hour, resisting the hypnotic lullaby of Emmrich’s measured breaths. She didn’t know why, but their gentle constancy entranced her. “I’ve never seen anyone use magic like that.”

    Summary

    “Like dancing with a partner, in the middle of a garden. Or in a kitchen, late at night.” he said. “Or, given the current situation, undressing someone.”

    “I’m not undressing you.” you tease.

    “Not with your hands.” he whispered.

    “Not yet.” you whispered back.
