I write and bake. No, that's it really, not much else to say.
Here's a list of all my little scribbles to make it easier to navigate:
1. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
1. Cleaved in Two
It was a curse to be born the second half of a whole.
Aerea just wants to live. To have a life wholly her own, a life of peace, freedom, happiness. But her twin won't let her. They were bound; two halves of a whole, who had come into this world together.
And if Aerion can't have her, he'd make sure no one else did.

2. Daughter of the Dragon Universe:
Act I: Daughters of the Dragon:
Rhaenyra Targaryen is blessed.
She was the first woman in the history of her House to be named heir to the Iron Throne. She holds power, is Hand to her Father, the King, a trusted member of his small council—and she's trapped in a loveless marriage with three daughters who don't look the least bit like their purported father.
Jacaera, Lucera and Joyce are the loveliest flowers in the realm. But as beautiful, dutiful and free-spirited as they are, they are still girls, and rumored bastards at that. They must contend against a realm that favors their uncles over them in the line of succession, and the machinations of their step-grandmother, who yearns to bring them and their Mother down.
With marriages and blood spilled, it is inevitable the dragons will dance—except this time, it will be she-dragon leading the fight.

Moon!!!!! First of all, love love LOVEEEEE Cleaved in Two. Literally on my fourth reread as we speak...
Wanted to know by any chance what you do when writing a fic? Do you have a creative process like a graphic organizer or an outline of ideas before you dive into the actual writing? Would love to hear some tips and advice as I love the way you write!!!
Got a random urge to write my first ever fic and of course...it's about our favorite evil labubu because I can't believe we're never going to see him again (never say never, I'm hopeful in like later seasons of AKOTSK, but who knows). My idea was that OC is Valarr 's twin/maybe sister/maybe a twin to Matarys? And is like obsessed with Aerion, who wants FUCK ALL to do with her 😭😭😂 and she's basically like a manic!girl pervert/weird girl, because what's the Targaryen line without having a black sheep member...But so far, I haven't thought too ahead as I would definitely love to hear your input on the way you approach writing!!!
OMG I feel so honored! I'm glad it's got reread potential, and that you're enjoying it that much 💜💜💜💜
Okay, I've spoke about this in a few previous asks, so I'll drop the links here and hope you'll find the half baked advice useful 😭
💬 0 🔁 1 ❤️ 10 · I'm interested about your creative process. I'm trying to write something, fan fiction, because that's what inspires me r
💬 0 🔁 0 ❤️ 13 · could you please explain how you outline your fics?
This presumes I do 😭
But in all seriousness I'm winging it like 80%
💬 2 🔁 0 ❤️ 10 · hello hello hope all is good!!!
do you have any advice for mapping out long fics? i'm venturing into unchartered territor
Also ooooh, that sounds fun! It reminds me of the Crazy Tom art where they gender bent Valarr into a girl. Very spicy.
I hope my chaos posts are of help in plotting it out! 💜
Your works are so beautiful I trust you have good taste in fics ❤️
Also your aemond work I ate that 146 chapters so good
Omg ty! I'm so glad you liked it.
Alas, I've not had much time to read, especially HOTD stuff, so I'm tragically lacking. At the top of my head I can recommend @presidenthades series a House Full of Daughters. It's basically a series where all of Rhaenyra's kids are gender bent, and Aemond has a relationship with FemLuke. It's a crack fic so lighthearted and humorous.
Beyond that, I'll let the fandom decide. I think @dreamilypurplepillar might be the best person to chime in here 💜
I was curious about how Aegon and Aemond’s relationships with Valarr and Aerion in DND will play out? Because I remember reading a previous comment that neither of them would like Aerion but I find that interesting considering I would have thought he would have made at least a surface level friendship with them or at least with Aemond. The reason I think this is because Aemond and Aerion seem to share an interest in Valyrian history and culture (based on how Aerion is written in Cleaved) and that would be something they could find common ground with. I could also imagine Aerion taking Aegon to some clubs for some entertainment in terms of alcohol and certain substances. But then again I could be wrong as we haven’t gotten to that point yet and Aerion might be different from how he’s written in Cleaved. When it comes to Valarr while I can imagine Aegon not liking him because Rhaenyra plans on wedding Jace to Valarr, I could see him and Aemond getting along as both seem to be mature, responsible, and dutiful. I was also curious about their reactions to Baelor and Maekar? While I could imagine the two to be in awe of Baelor, I feel like they would despise Maekar as I get the feeling he might be similar to their dad. How close or far am I from the mark?
Yep, it doesn't make sense now, cause there's no surrounding context to explain why they'll have animosity. Their conflict will be on very banal grounds, and while they will have commonalities, the circumstances will see them come into conflict.
As for the green camp's reaction to Baelor and Maekar, yes, they'll be in awe. In this universe, these are canonical Targaryens (like on par with the British royal family), so they're basically the thing they idealize (at least Aemond). So both will be impressive and more than a little intimidating (especially given the context)
The real wildcard here is Daemon, cause he'll be the lynchpin around whom this whole mess will unfold (again, context is missing to properly understand)
I saw that someone mentioned how “hes my man” by luvcat was like aerion and aereas relationship and you said that bang bang bang was too AND I ACTUALLY HAD BOTH OF THEM IN MY AERION PLAYLIST
additionally i think “my way of life” (not to be confused with my way) by frank sinatra is also very aerion coded cuz it frames that obsessive toxic unhealthy love really well
Holy shit
Gotta have you near all the time, With your dreams wrapped in mine
Quick question, is Aerion using certain substances not only for magic purposes but could it also be he is using substances and sex to try to quell the emotional codependency he has for Aerea? Because it seems he has some very self destructive tendencies rather than trying some healthy alternatives to dealing with his problems.
Oh yes. This is about his magic obsession, but in many ways, the magic and all the activities adjacent to it are in large part a way for him to cope with his emotional issues. Part of the reason why he's hardcore latched onto the Red Priestess is because he was emotionally vulnerable and needing something to fill the Aerea shaped hole. Not to mention regain a sense of security. He has never been in a position where he was Aerea in Maekar's eyes; ie, the problem child he's disciplining harshly. (Like yes he's gotten slapped around and foot whipped, but everything else, he was always able to talk his way out of it)
And that stings. He feel alone, vulnerable and angry, which is a recipe for disaster. 😖
Do you think Valarr ever resented Maekar for accidentally killing his father? Im certain he understood the situation but he was just a child
For the brief time he lived in cannon, I think he had complicated feelings. His book self is more angered by Baelor's death, and is quite rude towars Dunk when he dismisses him. So I can absolutely see him resenting his uncle as well for what he'd done (at least for the duration of his short life)
His show self idk. Since they made that scene to have him be more contemplative, I think he would have felt more sad and contemplative, maybe even worried about what the death meant for their family and their future.
Everytime I need to fuel my Daemyra fan heart obsesion and madness, I go back to chapter 32 of dying of the dragons.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥I have downloaded it to read that chapter again and again and again.
Oh my godddddddddddd. That's one of the best Daemyra scenes with Vizzy T in the background scene.
Nothing topped that till today.
Also to satisfy my Green frog hating heart, I read 33 as a bonus(especially when she thinks she and her children are specks of dirt for Daemyra). Especially when she cries seeing Vizzy, i love it🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹. Her real enemy is her jealousy of Rhaenyra and she hated seeing her happy.
Glad you like it so much!
But, I want to flag that 33 is supposed to be sad. Alicent thinking that is not a comment on her jealousy, but an indictment of Viserys. She has every right to be upset with him for neglecting her kids and not thinking about them as a parent at all (especially because he pushed her into having said kids in the first place)
so what was the special thing that valarr had going on down there?
You haven't seen it yet, because Aerea hasn't seen it yet. They did a frantic quickie in the dark. Next bone session will have cinematic lighting and a maximum, 4K quality
Yk if I had a nickel for every time a red priestess saw false visions in fire I would have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s still it has happened twice by now 😭 ON THAT NOTE FUCK YOU AERION
Hey don't knock it. In the books Moqorro seems to give fairly accurate predictions. So not all of them have a skill issue 👀
Targaryen Incest: Why the new Leaks Miss the Point of the Lore
Ever since the new leaks came out yesterday, I have seen tons of posts saying, "Well, incest is already a thing in this family, so why do you think it is wrong in this situation (Aemond kissing Alicent)?"
I am a long-time fan of GRRM's work. I’ve read and reread most of his books, interviews, and lore. I usually do not post my opinions online (I am an introvert), but this time I decided otherwise. And please, if you are going to comment that "the show doesn't follow the books," save it. We all know this isn't George's exact story anymore, but it is his world, his creation, and his fantasy and not just about following the events of Fire & Blood.
First of all, George is a very smart writer, mostly because he deeply understands his characters, even if those characters are... odd, to say the least. Incest is one of his dangerous choices he had made. A wild card that, if not played right, might have killed his books. But it worked. The reason it worked is that even though it is disgusting (and it is), it made sense. Like everything in his work, it wasn't random.
Targaryens are special because of their ability to bond with dragons, an advantage that no one else has, which eventually allowed Aegon to conquer six kingdoms and declare himself king . This special bond sets them high above other houses. If dragons became available to every other house, rebellions would rise. We saw this exact thing happen during the Dance, where Hugh Hammer saw himself as worthy of being king simply because he claimed a dragon.
This reality led to the Targaryens keeping the blood of the dragon as rare as possible: marrying inside the family and keeping the blood pure in order to remain in power. In a way, this also weakened them; they had no true army and no allied houses to call upon, relying solely on their dragons. That became evident in the later years when they lost the throne. After the dragons died out, the incest practice became useless. There was no point in keeping the blood of the dragon pure when there were no dragons left, so they started to wed for alliances.
So, to argue that just because a brother married a sister, it is perfectly fine to do the same with a mother and son "because the show is about incest," shows a lack of understanding of the world and Martin's writing. It highlights how modern Hollywood writers often fail to grasp the deeper mechanics of world-building and fantasy. Instead, they—and parts of the audience—rely on trends, shipping, and shock value.
I just hope that if someone else ever picks up the story of the Dance again, they have a little more respect for the author's lore. That said, I will probably continue to watch the show, mostly as a way to show support for the cast, as they do incredible work and don't deserve the backlash for writing choices.
I leave you with this quote from the man himself.
their traditional incest… keeping the bloodlines pure so that they could better control the dragons
He also specifically mentions pairings like:
brother marrying sister, and nephews and aunts
Another interview he said:
There was a specific reason for the incest… we can control dragons… keep it in the family”
This right here. George drew on IRL history when writing his world and while he isn't accurate to the feudal time period (his world is more of a sensationalist version of what modern people think feudal times were like), he did nail down a few core elements. Incest is one of them.
It's not just there for titillation, but rather, to comment on the insular nature of feudal power. European royalty married within their circle to preserve their wealth and status, and concentrate it within their hands alone. This gave them a monopoly over their domains, but it also inadvertantly crippled them because it led to genetic illnesses down the line (while also widening the gap between them and the commoners on a fundamental level, which turbo charged resentment).
ASOIAF is the same. All noble houses practice lateral incest, aka marrying their cousins, or aunts/uncles. The Targaryens take this to the extreme by doing siblings, which makes perfect sense as they are the apex of this insular power. They practice incest to preserve their place at the very top of the pyramid, which while beneficial short term (allowing them to pass power between two generations seamlessly without worrying about one dragon riding sibling getting poached by another house and turning the power against them), alienates them from everyone else, including other lords that are below them in the hierarchy, let alone the smallfolk.
Incest being treated as just some weird kink misses the point of why it's there to begin with. We get it, you want your characters to have issues. But it's a sign of lazy writing when show runners can't conceive of a character existing without making their trauma manifest in some weird, Freudian fetish where they wanna bang their mom (literally why?)
What, did you really think I was going to blue ball you like that? Pls. We all know you're here for the smut. Here's what was meant to be one chapter, now split into two for your reading pleasure:
Oof, I'm about to out myself as a filthy casual but yes, casually. Though I'm ride or die for Tomb Raider. I played the fuck out of ALL those damned games (TR II remains my favorite and most hated game ever. Fuck that goddamn ship level aaaaaaa)
I've played other stuff, but mostly recreationally (Sega, Mario, Batman games, Last of Us etc. Tried doing Dead Space once and rage quit)
