ㅤㅤㅤㅤ︵✧ This is a heavily independent and headcanon with loose A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms & GRRM based portrayal of Aerion "Brightflame" Targaryen. I use Finn Bennett and Cody Fern as fcs.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ︵✧ Anyone is free to interact but not double friendly. Gladly accept ocs! I do intend to multiverse Aerion so if you are not from ASOIAF verse, that is quite alright <3. I may not be aware of your verse, however. I follow and like from @rapturok. Follow whichever blog you want.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ︵✧ I will advise you not to follow or approach if you are uncomfortable with potential dead dove themes.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ︵✧ Anons and non-roleplayers are allowed to ask Aerion (or myself about him) questions. I do prefer it to pertain to the blog rather than canon, though.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ︵✧ I am a 21+ roleplayer so adults only. General dnis such as racism, sexism, misogyny, colorism, ableism, queerphobia, homophobia, transphobia, and the likes.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤFurther extensive rules below
Yappers: I adore speaking about our muses, learning about yours, and so forth. I tend to just go ham and type away hcs for my muse (it causes my blog to appear not very tidy </3). If I'm in a cc x cc like Daerion (merely one example), I might perhaps share fanart with you and such, hah.
Disabled writer: I am a diagnosed audhd, predominately monotropic, anxiety, intellectually disabled, and suffer from multiple types of dys so I ask for patience in delays, responses, and whatever else. I may become sensory overwhelmed by my task deficiency at times and other things which leads me to post on it as a self reminder and self soothe (even if I delete). I do try to post those on my main blog mostly, but it is not a 100% guarantee. If you feel uncomfortable by this, please refrain from being mutuals with me. I am aware it is not always fun to see such posts.
Aerion's Orientation: Aerion is Achillean and Aromantic. So with that said, I am wary pushing Aerion into just any romantic relation. I am rusty on xxx nsfw but not completely opposed to light xxx nsfw for now. Gladdened to try out familial, platonic, past-sexual dalliance (hah), with you.
Lovers: I have bias for Daeron (The Drunken) Targaryens and Aegon II Targaryens as romantic partners for Aerion. But I am certainly willing to explore Raymun Fossoways, Valarr Targaryens, and whomever else might be an option, if our muses vibe.
Main Universe AU: Aerion is in a situationship / unofficial marriage in his main universe AU with @princesummerhall's Daeron. However, I do not mind multiverses and multimuses as you've read.
Non-negotiable relation: Aerion is tied to Daeron no matter the universe (non-romantic/non-sexual in a universe with your muse).
Depature from canon: Seeing as it's Aerion, dark themes will be present on his page. In any case, it is a divergent portrayal, so he won't be the Barbie Ramsay Bolton you knew. I intend on toning things down. The character in GRRM's novels is truly despicable, but GRRM did create an intriguing psyche in Aerion himself / his essence regardless of what universe he'd be in or many details altered. That is what I wish to nosedive into!
Problematics: I do not mind if you warned me of bad people. Unfortunately, I have never been the best with knowing this stuff and dealt with unsavory experiences in rp so it nice to be informed on ill intended individuals <3.
Delays: I adore roleplaying with people, so my delay is not a sign of disliking rping with you. It is more likely I want to craft a certain reply, irl stuff, and my disabilities. ^^
Not exclusive: I accept multiples of any muses. At the moment, I do not participate in exclusives. That could change in the future if things become crowded.

(It was tough finding a fc for Dae. Some book readers tend to hc him as quite uncomely, but I got lazy so I compromised by making his age appear similar to the hcs yet average / alright in the face.)
Aerion sends him thirst bait pictures, pretending it's all a joke, and half the time "reminds" Daeron not to jerk off to them or else Daeron's a loser freak.
Daeron may or may jerk off to them. Probably also pretends to get genuinely annoyed by all this. But they're both loser freaks. One just hides the loser part while the other hides the freak part.
And because Daerion is a switch pair... There's absolutely an occasional chance Daeron pulls a "whoopsie" picture, play the innocent, and now you have Aerion secretly being in Daeron's position where he undoubtedly did get off to the whoopsie.
Aerion finding his way to Rorschach is something else. Your morals and/or principles are difficult to grasp in the sense of dedication for The Brightflame. It isn't entirely self indulgent nor aesthetic. You're concealed behind a mask. Everyone passes by you all the time. You're considered annoyance at best and paranoid on average. Why act on principle towards something on the brink of collapse with no reward. You yourself frown upon those bottom feeders. The conclusion must be masochism.
(i mean, who should i roleplay as? i don't know. i’m struggling so bad as is. idk if should maybe do another? maybe aemond? another? maybe rhaenyra... seriously don't know, lovie)
— same anon !
// Hmm, if you're preparing for Hotd (as they're popping up on my dash), perhaps Aemond out of that list? I see less of him than the rest (though Aegon iis are extremely rare more so). Daemon, Aemond, and Rhaenyra are all challenging psychologically, Aemond and Rhaenyra thematically as well (Aemond dealing with fragility, fear, and envy or Rhaenyra dealing with being seen as "just woman" by society and therefore rejected as a ruler despite having ideas, more will, and competent than those in the Dance). However, if you don't mind either verse, Baelor is quite lovely too as I imagine he's encompassing (for characters to approach. If that is the concern of yours. I know intimidating characters pose that bit of risk for some) and thematic too (overcoming his own challenges as accommodating yet measured and identity in Akotsk surviving the trial as a "Dornish" Targaryen according to his society). Hope I've helped with a small sense of direction! In the end, pick what do you wish to tackle or put to the forefront with x character and whom you envision unions with the most.
Would you marry Baelor? I heard he's into brat taming and we all know you're the biggest fucking one.
Your presence hardly seems a stranger to me.
One question, one superstition. You are only granted an answer to a question.
And that is, no.
// 3/10 truth serum left.
// Although he is not extremely acquainted with his uncle, he is suffocating in a different manner. Too polished, too measured, too keen, often leveled. It would grate him to be tied to Baelor.
Aerion strode into Canary's chambers - seeing as Maekar would no doubt fashion a room for Aerion's personal knight - unencumbered or at least appearing so.
"Little bird, gladden your prince or we may take favor in dressing up the servants in crimson"
He flicked his fingers, lounging on the chaise, his leg draped over the other rather elegant despite his leisure arms merely pliant in the cushion for now. Aerion had been under an impression Canary fancied himself in the arts. Whether that was false or not.
// @ask-aerion-brightflame
The knight had been unraveling his golden braid. Fingers nimbly threading through the strands as they'd done it a hundred times, and with all known assumptions, he most likely had. He turns just as he finishes the very last bit, reaching for a ribbon to secure it whilst he watched his prince place himself in his vicinity.
" You wish to be entertained, so you come to me? " He tilted his head as if he'd been spoken to in tongues. " Pardon me, your grace.. I am a knight, no? " Canary wore the smile that over the years, became the mark of the lion. They all had a similar, warm charm. A charm that spoke in red and gold. " You'd surely be better gladdened by a bard, or an archer. " He speaks with no concern, no intimidation. The ribbon is tied without missing a beat.
A pause. Arch of his brow. Delicately so. "No use in affording my time with the same form of play." Aerion's palms raised from the cushions to caress above his fiery tunic, fingers etching across the golden embroidery in a lazed yet focused ease. "Even if the lot of them perform, whether in jest or calculation." His smile was clipped and off to the side, his head tilted forward, pale eyes following the ribbon flowing in such careful, sweet hands. "You are sworn to your prince. Let us make art of someone with that pretty steel of yours then, knight." A bite. Craving mischief. A melody shall be sung. If not from the bird's lips. No matter. Aerion would sheen this Canary's feathers alright. "Fetch a fool for us, will you~." He chirped. Eyes prowled, continued chasing fingers on lace briefly. Their gaze finally well met. An expectation held that hadn't matched his honeyed tone.
My dear, have you not met my poor receding father? Surely, he'd numb The Stranger itself witless.
No, I'd not.
// 4/10 truth serum left.
// No interest in marrying Maekar (if this were a verse) as he views him a simp and not the fun kind. + Aerion is annoyed by Maekar's "I can fix him" which is truly rather a "I hope that he can be fixed" (leans book > show here due to Aerion being his favorite and the tone difference).
I continuously debate if I want to keep Book Aerion's crash out over Duncan or not. But seeing as I decided not to keep Book Aerion coveting the Throne (I do want to keep the part of him being married and having an heir to retain that creditability, since it fits him), mmm. For now, this detail is undecided.
The Throne is too boring for restless glutton Aerion. The Vanity is often portrayed this way, only to regret it, realize they never wished for what entails it (responsibility), and largely prefer leisures and inspiration (Second Sons, Dark Arts, etc.).
So I'm taking creative liberty by making my Aerion one of the few The Vanitys who, with the primary (but not sole) influence and commotion of Ashford, does not care for it at all.
The Duncan part is really good though ngl. It makes sense Aerion would lash out (aka making guards hunt down Duncan pretending he was mainly concerned on simply retrieving Egg and shit about dragon/targ principle) as Duncan humiliated his image even if Aerion was a fraud and not too subtle about it either.
Let's make this canon to the blog. Fuck it. It is a good way to show Aerion hiding behind the false pretense of "love for the game". Had that been true, you wouldn't waste your breath, fool.
