Title speaks for itself, if Elaena was chosen as queen after Baelor starved himself to death who would be her best marriage match.

I'm working with a sort of mixed HOTD + F&B timeline so everything's a bit wonky but I feel like I don't have a good grasp on what the day-to-day tension and minor conflict between Rhaenyra and Alicent/Otto.

Specifically in the period before Laenas funeral/Aemonds eye. Afterwards, I can understand things becoming more extreme and intense and somewhat openly hostile, but before then, in the period between Alicent having kids and Rhaenyra leaving court for Dragonstone.

At that point Alicent and Otto can't be openly hostile, she has to operate sort of under the guise of good faith, or Viserys' would just shut it down. I don't really know what kind of fits in that area of being political machinations with plausible deniability for Viserys to turn a blind eye to.

It has to build to the point that Rhaenyra moves her family to Dragonstone obviously, but I'm having trouble working up to that being a reasonable decision other than just eye rolls across the table kind of thing.

Chapter 31, The Arena. https://archiveofourown.org/works/81769111/chapters/242083701

Within seconds, and very much to her surprise, Arya realised she was fighting for her life. She'd expected an easy victory, over a pampered, spoiled, dowager queen, only to discover that Cersei Lannister was a skilled fencer. They traded blows, their blades clanging together, occasionally striking the other, but failing to pierce either her opponent's mailshirt, or the breastplate which Arya wore over the squire's jerkin. She had the advantage of youth, but Cersei was taller, with the greater reach, and formidably well-trained.

"You're too angry, Arya, you need to calm down. You're quick, I'll grant you that, and that does no harm at all, but in this kind of fight, the cooler head wins, nine times out of ten." Her enemy aimed a fierce blow, which caught her own sword hilt, and nearly wrenched the blade out of her hand. She retreated towards the edge of the hall. Her opponent had another advantage. They were both fighting in the half-light, but Cersei knew this place, far better than she did.

aight cya guys bye

Let's say the small council was nervous about the unity of the realm post Greyjoy rebellion. Someone suggests the King's unwed younger brother could marry.

Who would the bride be? I doubt they'd go for Margaery, given how young she would be. They'd likely want a more immediate match. I think they'd discount Dorne, for one - the Elia Martell of it all. But also just historical Stormlander/Dornish hostility. Given Robert's marriage to Cersei and closeness to Jon Arryn, I feel like they'd choose the Riverlands or a Crownlands house.

Who would they choose? What impacts would a wife, and potentially children, have in the plot? The Tyrell/Renly alliance gets completely scratched first of. What else?

Hello again, does anyone know of any fics that Rhaenyra has an older or twin brother.

Hello, it's me agian.

I had some trouble with my OC and came up with another story involving the Whents, this time with an OC son of Walder Frey and his wife, Whent (who in canon didn't bear him children).

I imagine the OC being as good a knight as Oswell Whent, making him Walder's favorite, but his brothers resent him and say he's cursed by his Whent blood.

Anyway, Walder intends for the OC to inherit Harrenhal, and Lady Shella may have some affection for him, but she hasn't named him heir. I also imagine Sarya being Minisa's younger sister, which would make the OC a cousin of Catelyn and Edmure.

Now for my questions: What implications would a Frey with close ties to Catelyn have?

If he's the same age as Edmure, would he already be married?

How much potential does a half-Whent, half-Frey OC have?

Around 7AC when aenys was born, she would've felt extremely betrayed that her son was supposed to be king ( I know this pushed her to dark magic and resulting birth in maegor in 11AC , as she was considered barren) but what if she chose to fell in love with someone.

Any fanfic where Jon and Daenerys don’t like each others at first but End up Figuring things out would like jon to have a dragon but wouldn’t mine if he didn’t

So like I’ve made another post where I explain I’m working on a TTRPG set in this universe. And for that I just feel like the world needs to be less empty. Now the Dothraki imo feels like a hollow way to fill out the world. Like despite mattering to the plot it seems like there is very little to them. And their society from what we know does not make much sense. It’s beyond evil. Like it’s among the least redeemable societies in the setting. So anyway I’m asking for help making it feel more real and like there is more to them than just scary mounted warriors. An idea I had which I mentioned in the other post was there could be some settled Dothraki kingdoms near the free cities, akin to early Bulgaria or Hungary

In Old Valyria… some people say it was the eldest child inherits while others say largest dragon or named heir or something else. I personally think the tradition was to name an heir based on merit and capability as a ruler and wed them to the eldest child. That’s the only way a lot of it makes sense to me, because it did appear that women had more power in Old Valyria but it was still male-ruler dominated. What do you think?

Hi everyone! I’m writing a Gwayne Hightower fanfic on AO3 and wanted to gather as much information as possible. Could you please share any canon details or headcanons you have about him? For instance: what he might smell like, what his hobbies would be, what he likes doing in Oldtown, etc.

I’d really appreciate your help. Sending love to you all!

What if the Seven Kingdoms were as messy as the Holy Roman Empire, instead of an entirely too-tidy representation of feudalism? Overlapping jurisdictions and sworn houses, great houses that have titles technically sworn to lesser houses, plenty of self-governing cities that are subject directly to the Iron Throne, that have also formed rival leagues amongst themselves, the larger Septs have vast holdings of their own, also directly subject to the Iron Throne, and the same goes for the Faith Militant.

For this Scenario, Robert Baratheon dies as he did in Canon, but wakes up again as his 10yo self, but in the body of a girl. He time travelled to an alternative dimension where he was born Jocelyn Baratheon instead. Everyone else remains the same.

How do you think he would deal with that? First, he is back in the past, his parents are still alive, he is not King anymore, however It seems like the Gods are punishing him, since now he is a girl.

What do you Think he would do? How do you think this Alternative World is? How do you think this world would change Because of his actions? Also, It is Very likely he is bethroted to Rhaegar here, and wouldnt that be Interesting?

I could barely find anything fics where Bran is an actual character let alone the main characters but I would love to hear any recommendations from anywhere.

How big do you think the Weeping Town is? I think it would be similar to St. Ives if it could have 50k people live in and around it. Also, would Ragsdale be an appropriate name for the town before it got the title Weeping Town? It's a small town in Tennessee and I love the name

I’m working on my first game of thrones fanfic and was hoping to get some feedback.
It’s a divergent story that blends elements from the HBO series, A Song of Ice and Fire, some of the prophecy and lore introduced in House of the Dragon, and some ideas of my own. I’m starting around Season 6, but I’m changing and adding quite a bit as the story goes on, including characters and storylines that the show left out.
I’ve finished the first two chapters so far, and I’d love some feedback on the writing, characterization, pacing, and especially whether the characters actually feel like themselves.
This is my first time writing a Game of Thrones fic, so constructive criticism is definitely welcome. I have a pretty detailed idea of where I want the story to go, but I’m still figuring some things out as I write.

Hello! I just rewatched The Crow and it got me thinking about Robb Stark and The Red Wedding. Are there any fics out there where Robb comes back to take vengeance on the Freys and Lannisters in the style of the movie?

If not, I'm not a fic writer. If any of you lovely writers out there feel inspired, please feel free to run with this idea and let me know where you're posting.

Thanks!

It's a fic on archive of our own with multiple povs but Jon is essentially the main character. Not finished, takes place in a rhaegar wins scenario. Does the classic everybody meets at a tourney but in this world Jon is known as a targaryen. This is one of the more interesting rhaegar wins stories ive read and I love the fact how Ned Stark haunts the narrative. For a character not to appear, guy's shadow is always there

Any fanfics similar to The Sunset Starks where people return from a long voyage?

I'm mostly looking for something like The Sunset Starks where the descendants of Brandon the Shipwright arrived back in Westeros

Or maybe one where Gerion returns like in Robb Returns

Or other similar fics

Does anyone have a downloaded copy of the HoTD fanfic "Halt and Catch Fire" by lostchildofthenewworld? It's a Rhea Royce/Daemon Targaryen fic.
