uncle issues are a very real thing in aemond's world and i'm sat here at 4am laughing.

[smaragduseques]

his two eldest nephews could benefit from learning something of silence, rather than indulging in the apparent fondness targaryens hold for letting tongues run free and dealing with consequences after the fact. their diplomacy leaves much to be desired. barbed words fail to dig under his skin in the way he imagines aemond intends, though not for a lack of memory of the letter that had fallen upon his desk, penned by alicent's hand with a request that another of her sons might join daeron in oldtown. he hadn't attempted a response, nor mentioned the missive to anyone, or else he'd have no room to refuse. daeron had already become settled in his life away from the keep, and gwayne had not wanted to disrupt the peace with the addition of another of alicent's boys when he knew that neither of them would fit. the influence of the world they were raised in had already staked its claim on them. "if you wish to speak the truth, speak it plainly."

[doronlaes]

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀HE COULD HAVE LEFT IT THERE, kept his uncle in the dark, left him to wonder what he'd meant, or not, and not wasted another breath or thought on it, or on gwayne altogether, but gwayne's continued ignorance, which he was nigh certain was merely pretend and his uncle knew exactly what he was talking about, and denial only further fuelled the rage that had been brewing inside of him, hidden deep beneath the surface, nigh forgotten for a long amount of time, for far longer than it should've. but even amidst that rapidly increasing ire, aemond could not bring himself to say it more plainly, not when the matter was so insignificant and pathetic , when he shouldn't even be concerning himself with something so minuscule, even less now that he was older. he'd never wanted to go to oldtown to begin with — in fact, he had taken offence to it then, to his mother's audacity to even suggest sending him away, getting rid of him as she'd done with the youngest son. his place was in king's landing, he had known that already then, and naught had changed about that. truly, it had all worked out in aemond's favour in the end, and yet . . .

“ playing the fool to avoid matters you are not ready to deal with may have worked to silence my mother seven years ago, but it will not convince me. ” he was not even certain what alicent had made of it — she had never brought it up again, and that had been the end of it. his words should've been enough of a hint, but in the case that they weren't, he continued, “ i suppose it would be a reasonable assumption to make that the raven got lost, but that would not explain why it it still sits cawing its head off in the rookery now. ”

[infamescoronam]

@doronlaes continued from here.

aemond's quietly calm demeanour could only ever add to the elder's aggravation, ever hoping for someone who might rise up to meet him and bite back, or share in the anger that took hold of him from the slightest provocation. but where aegon's moods were fickle, changing rapidly from one moment to the next, aemond possessed a composure that he had never been able to replicate. he knew that his brother's calm did not mean he felt no ire, only that it burned cold while his own felt like flames would burst from beneath skin. a brief satisfaction rose up as aemond finally reacted, yet it faded just as swiftly. the words were an echo of those he'd heard before from the lips of others in their family, ones he would like to claim to be numb to and yet they still find their mark as intended. swaying slightly upon feet, the impression that a physical blow had been struck, though it was likely only a result of the wine that saturated his bloodstream.

returning to his own empty goblet sat upon the far end of the table from aemond, silence lingered as he reached for whatever remained of the wine, spilling half of what he poured over his own hand and the table below, but if he noticed, he seemed not to care.

"get out." words eventually uttered, voice dropped back to normal volumes, heavy handed as the wine jug clatters back to table, a crack travelling up its ceramic surface.

[doronlaes]

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ HE WOULD BE LYING if he claimed that there wasn't some form of satisfaction to seeing aegon's reaction —  a twisted kind, a sick pleasure in watching the light vanish from his eyes, trickle from violet hues like the spilled wine making its way to the table's edge in a narrow rivulet of thick scarlet droplets now, when before it had burned all too brightly with that well-known flame of rage, one that would be half as prone to showing its face if aegon didn't ask for it, didn't need to be taken down a notch when he let his temper run its course like that, nigh caused the corner of his mouth to curl upwards. but all he did was seize up his elder brother and keep him locked in a cold, blank gaze, trailing his figure to the table, unflinching as the jug slammed against the wood and filled the room with noise.

all too gladly, he would have heeded the request and left right then, let aegon wallow in self-pity and drink until the morrow — then wallow some more in the deserved consequences of his nights spent drinking far beyond thirst. it would've done naught but been in aemond's favour; to not see, nor hear from him until at least the noon as he slept off his inebriation, plenty of time to run errands without that agitating voice sending ripples of a rapidly forming ache through his temples, or his clueless brother breathing uselessly down his neck, asking what he's doing, where he's been, tampering with plans he did not fully understand, and wasn't expected to understand. aegon wasn't expected to do anything, but leave aemond be, accept that some things were beyond his capabilities, and leave them to his little brother to handle. trust him with that much.

frustrated rage sank its claws deeper into his chest, pulling, unfurling rapidly, the urge to kick the chair behind him and shatter the wood suddenly all too tempting, but that was how aegon would handle such sentiments, and how he'd just been handling them, ravaging and ranting into the stillness of eve. and aemond never would be aegon. equally tempting was the knowledge of the door to his right, the promise of at least of semblance of peace until the following day that lay beyond it, but no, if he was already serving his brother necessary reminders tonight, he might as well seize the opportunity to also remind him that he was not one to be pushed around, to heed orders — he did what needed to be done, and he did it efficiently, more than that, but he did it on his own accord. his brother could have his throne, his idling about with his drinks and his whores and treat each day like a feast to honour whatever the fuck he deemed worth celebrating on that particular day, but aemond would have this. the freedom to make his own decisions, to what he did best; strategise, plan, then climb aback vhagar and set off towards the sky to execute.

“ you are quiet all of a sudden, brother. ” was all he said after a moment of pressing silence that lingered palpably between them, charged with the raw current of a brewing thunderstorm, broken up only by the continuous crackling of the fireplace, an observation stated calmly across the table, eye still fixated upon his brother, lingering for an equally long amount of time as before the silence had come to an end, before shifting down as he reclaimed his seat, smoothening out the wine-stained black fabric of his sleeve. it hadn't been deliberately provocative — there was no need, aegon would rile himself up enough on his own, it didn't need aemond's sharp words for that when his presence already may do the trick now that he'd opted to overstay his welcome, but, still, the mutter that followed could not be suppressed, not this time, “ it seems the gods have a heart, after all. ”

@smaragduseques sent: "Do you always push buttons?"

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀“ I ONLY SPEAK TRUTH, UNCLE. ” gwayne's question was met with the trace of a smirk slowly pulling up aemond's lips, something that spoke of arrogance, something utterly inauthentic and twisted, as fleeting as a passing shadow, dropping again soon after. “ i have no need to rely on silence. ” the look he gave him then said it all — intact eye fixating on him, stubborn, lingering. gwayne may not remember it, and, truly, aemond would not put it past him if he did not; why should he recall something that must've been so insignificant to him? but his nephew remembered it clearly — four and ten he had been when his mother, all but in passing, had mentioned penning a letter to her brother, that he might be joining his little brother, daeron, in oldtown for a time. days had passed, weeks, months, years. she'd never spoken of it again. whether his uncle had rejected the suggestion, or never answered the raven, he did not know, but given his mother's lasting silence about the subject, he had convinced himself of the latter. perhaps avoidance was a hightower trait, and he could only be grateful that he did not resemble that side of his heritage too much.
