Summary
“Where is the fighter that fought me on the bridge? Where is the warrior that did not blink in the face of three despicable soldiers and who cut them down like the wind? Fight, damn you.”
“Tell me how,” she says, her voice breaking despite her resolve.
“Spar with me,” he says, his gaze steady and firm. His eyes, the way he stares, it makes her want to squirm away.

Summary
Brienne and Jaime share a moment after their brush with death. Jaime learns much to dislike about Hyle Hunt (and ever more to like about Brienne).
~*~
Brienne shrugged. “It was an honorable proposal. Honorable enough.”
“Honorable enough? Who in the seven hells are the Hunts? I’ve suffered interminable speeches from Mace Tyrell on the lords and swords of the Reach. He somehow never mentioned them.” He snorted incredulously. “Is he even a landed knight? Or just some wandering social climber who tumbled out of a hedge?”
“House Hunt are sworn bannermen to the Tarlys. From the Marches.”
“Tell me you’re joking. You’re not really contemplating marriage with that jackanapes.”
A part of her wanted to lie and say she was, if only so she could pretend it would bother him. But that was foolish. Pretending only made the truth worse when it came. “No. Not really.” She looked down and away, not wanting him to see her face.
“He doesn’t love you, you know.” Jaime’s voice softened. “I know his kind. It’s Tarth he wants. Not you.”

Summary
A series of flashes in her mind: Rhaenyra’s head in her lap under the weirwood tree, her crystalline eyes alight. Syrax, saddled for two, soaring across the Narrow Sea to worlds unknown. The ripped page she still keeps locked away in her chambers, alongside a piece of her heart.
Alicent can no longer afford to cling to Rhaenyra’s words like a promise. Yet after the longest of winters, there’s something addictive about the possibility of being consumed by dragonfire.
or, Rhaenyra returns on dragonback. Alicent feels her presence like the rising sun. Post-1x08.

Summary
“So… he’s dead,” is how Gwayne starts, all very casual, like how one might say “The grass is green,” or “Nice weather we’re having!”
Alicent rolls her eyes. Dead? She nearly laughs. He’s only dead when there isn’t a soul left to remember who exactly Otto Hightower was. She repeats as much out loud. “Dead as a zombie, maybe. His soul lives on.”
Gwayne seems to decide that the best course of action is to ignore her remark, because he carries on with, “The funeral’s next week. Yes, we both have to speak.” Just as Alicent’s about to start arguing, because she doesn’t think the thoughts she has about their father are very appropriate for a funeral, Gwayne quickly adds, “Rhaenyra will be there.”
She halts in place.
(Because, the truth is — undeniably — Rhaenyra being there might actually be worse than writing a speech she doesn’t mean for her father’s funeral).
Or: Otto dies, and murder mystery ensues.

Summary
Rotated off his usual partnership with Judy Hopps, and stuck with an unfamiliar face, Nick Wilde reports for a dead-quiet overnight stakeout in the frozen sprawl of Tundra Town, expecting nothing more than boredom and bad coffee. What he gets instead is Cassie Fangmeyer—tall, disciplined, unimpressed, and entirely uninterested in his charm. With hours to kill inside a crumbling apartment block, irritation slowly gives way to sharp banter, uncomfortable honesty, and a tension neither of them expected. It isn’t romance. It isn’t destiny. Just two predators, one long night, and a choice to seek warmth where they can find it.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
A short prequel fic to The Safe House https://archiveofourown.org/works/69727471/chapters/180918276 featuring a Nick x Fangmeyer hookup before Nick gets together with Judy.
