you know what i think would be an interesting concept? what if one of aemond’s children’s dragon eggs doesn’t hatch? in most of the dad!aemond fics i’ve seen, the eggs hatch and everyone is happy, but i don’t think i’ve seen a blurb/one shot with this kind of direction. but just imagine this:
Aemond, his wife, and their children are all gathering for dinner, and they all easily take notice that there is one seat not being filled. so then he makes it his mission to figure out where his child is, only to find them in their own chambers, holding the unhatched dragon egg to the heat of the fire (kind of like the rhaena and laena scene) and aemond’s heart literally breaks at the sight because he knows the feeling of wishing for a dragon egg to hatch and it never happening. and maybe it breaks a little more when he can hear his child whispering pleas for the egg to hatch and this grown man is literally going through it. like it would break my heart but i also know that aemond wouldn’t let this child feel as less loved and maybe after comforting his child he promises them a ride on vhagar after dinner. anyways this is just an idea that has been sitting in my head for a while, and since you are one of the best aemond writer’s, i felt like you’d catch my drift with this one lmao plus i am also too terrified to write it out as it will probably be trash
I love this so much and it’s an awesome concept for sure 😯 Aemond knows firsthand what that feels like and he would make sure his child wouldn’t have to go through the same hardships he went through.
Give it a try! Sometimes we limit ourselves before we even try and that’s so heartbreaking because I imagine the amount of awesome Aemond fics we’d get 😔
