Ive Been Rereading Throw Me To The Wolves And Just Got To Aegons Chapter Where He Mentions That In Another
i’ve been rereading throw me to the wolves and just got to aegons chapter where he mentions that in another life he and alysanne would have probably married and now i can’t stop thinking about it
Wouldn't that make for an interesting pair! Alysanne as she is now would work well with him, I think. Were it not for Robb, she could grow to love Aegon.
I've given this a great deal of thought, actually. In the instance Aegon talks about (and Varys mentions it, in his chapter), Alysanne would never have been betrothed to Robb and sent north. Ostensibly raised in the Red Keep, if not at Casterly Rock with Tywin. I think that makes for a very different Alysanne.
(There's also the equally tragic option of Robb dying during the war and Alysanne ending up with Aegon that way. I think that would really break her for a while and turn her vengeful, bordering on cruel. But after a time, I think she and Aegon would grow to love one another in some capacity.)
She would perhaps be meeker, especially if raised by Tywin. And if she was raised in the Red Keep and Cersei got her claws into her as she originally wanted, I think she'd be a great deal more bitter. Not to mention whatever horrors come with growing up alongside Joffrey.
I think, in this other timeline, if she did manage to break free of Cersei and Tywin's influence, she would rule well alongside Aegon. She would have a long journey of growth. Those two together could be fun to write, perhaps I'll explore that one day!
Thank you for the ask :)

Aemond x reader | Kiss prompts
7. “I’ve missed you” kiss
The heavy raindrops fell, soaking your through your heavy clothing to your skin. You had been waiting out in this weather almost an hour, eager to greet Aemond upon his arrival. You wanted to be the first thing he saw after coming home from over a year abroad.
Vhagar, being too large to keep in the Dragon Pit, had landed amongst the foothills outside King's Landing, her arrival shaking the earth under your boots.
You hurried forward as you saw a figure through the curtains of grey rain, his white hair just as soaked as the rest of him. A couple guards had already approached the prince, greeting him only to be waved off by an impatient hand. You hung back, not wanting to be recognized as the sole lady of noble birth braving a thunderstorm to welcome Aemond home. You pulled your hood closer to your face as they passed, not taking too much notice of your presence in their hurry to get to shelter.
A streak of lightning lit up the darkening sky, illuminating the man now mere paces before you. Aemond recognized you, and with a widening smile, strode to meet you as you slipped on the muddy earth toward him.
He opened his arms and you collided against him with a sharp exhalation upon impact. Aemond took your face, dripping rainwater, in his gloved hands. "Y/N, I didn't expect you to catch your death in this storm only to see me!"
"I couldn't wait a moment longer!" Both your voices were raised above the drumming rain.
Aemond shook his head, a fond smile upon his curved mouth. He brought his lips to yours in a heated kiss, despite the frigid downpour. An umbrella of warmth spread from your chest to your toes as you grabbed his coat at the waist and pulled him hard against you. Aemond broke away only slightly, turning his face to the sky, the raindrops splashing on his skin. "How I missed you, Y/N." He dipped his head to kiss you again. "How I craved you." He nibbled a path along your jaw and down your throat.
Your hands entered his open coat, ghosting your fingers along his torso and to his back. You arched your neck, granting Aemond's exploring mouth better access as he sucked a mark onto your shoulder. "Let's get you inside." He said as another lightning strike heralded booming thunder. "I need a bath." Aemond moved his lips to yours once more, savoring the taste of the rainwater on your tongue. "You will stay with me tonight, damn what gossip spreads. I'm going to show you exactly how much I missed you."
With a sudden lithe movement, Aemond swept you up into his arms and began carrying you back to the fortress and the promise of a long, warm night.
Me fucking around vs. me finding out
I will do what queens do.
A third commenter has entered the fray LMAOOO
This fic is NOT going the way they think (i.e Aegon's children will not be marrying each other to ensure Pure Valyrian Blood) and I'm terrified I'm going to get ripped to shreds when we reach that point
Watching the intense back and forth two commenters are having on my most recent chapter like
I haven’t disappeared again! I meant to update and post a new Aemond one shot this week/weekend but I’ve got the flu :(
