not enough to say that I miss you by Syysmyrsky (Arktikko)
Fandoms: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (TV)
05 Jul 2026
Tags
Summary
”You surprise me, my lord.”
Lyonel looked up from his tragic ale and across the table at Lord Manfred Dondarrion, who was watching him with a pinch between his eyebrows. The two of them were alone for the moment, though thinking of it now, Lyonel could not have said when the others had left. Manfred stared at him, eyes sharp, expression somewhere between pissed off and amused.
”Hm?”
”It’s just strange my lord, for I never took you for such a lover of dragons, nor that dead one in particular,” Manfred said, looking at him hard. Lyonel could not make sense of the words for a long moment. When they finally fell into place, he let out an incredulous laugh.
”What the fuck are you talking about?”
Weeks after Ashfrod and Lyonel is still not feeling like himself, enough so that people around him start to notice. This prompts him to do some reflecting on why that might be. Unfortunately for him, he ends up getting carried away by his imagination in the process, and the idea of what might have happened that first night in Ashford if he had been just a little less drunk.

Summary
He’s two minutes into Go Your Own Way and five articles into a laundry list of local political fuck-ups reported in rival papers, when a swift shove to his ribs knocks him off balance. He says a silent thank you to their ritual, his hand still gripped tightly around the pole and Bright Dress’ steadying hold on his shoulder the only things saving him from going head-first and skidding across a floor that hasn’t been cleaned in God knows how long.
The beeping warning sounds from the doorway melds with Stevie’s crooning, just as bright, concerned eyes and a bushy, obnoxious moustache come into view. Trent sees red.
Or, Trent start's seeing The Man on his morning commute.

Summary
Scott opens his hands, plaintive and apologetic. “I don’t know. When I won that, you and I were…apart. Everything about that win felt so meaningless, because I didn’t have the one thing that really mattered to me. I dunno, I guess I never really let myself celebrate the win.”
Scott gets the medal ceremony he deserved all along.

“That leaves the one option.”
Stephen, waiting for Jack at the end of his search for a solution, finally met Jack’s eyes. “The biological imperative.”
Despite his best efforts, Jack blushed. Clearing his throat, he asked, “Do you have a candidate in mind?”
“Jack,” Stephen started, voice uncharacteristically low and strained, “I beg you, do not make me the find the words to ask.”

Summary
Stephen took hold of Jack's face again, but not this time to cherish. He held him still—Jack making a mild complaining sound—and moved back far enough for the lantern-light to fall upon Jack and bring him into focus. There—there, on his jaw, where Stephen's hands had grabbed him—a faint smudge of the silvery dust. And on the side of his neck where the shirt lay loose, another trace of it, glittering like assassins' knives; Stephen remembered how he had combed all of his treacherous fingers through Jack's hair, stealthily savouring him. Contaminating him.

This decision might be considered the luckiest, as standing near Jack meant that Stephen was not alone in his fall overboard.
Or it might be considered the unluckiest, as standing near Jack meant that Stephen was foremost in the splinters' path, when the ranging shot abruptly found its range.
