𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐎𝐍

・One of the largest men in King's Landing, his size alone intimidates everyone. His strength seems supernatural, he senses things first, and when caught up in fights, he is the last one standing. Always.

・He doesn’t like others using your first name too casually. He prefers when they use your title, or something distant. Your name is his to say softly.

・He corrects anyone who mispronounces your name; too quickly, too sharply.

・He calls you by your full name only when he’s jealous; otherwise, it’s always the pet name.

・When you argue, his instinct is to step between you and the world, even if he’s the one you’re mad at.

・He knows the rhythm of your heartbeat. When it quickens, even from laughter, he glances over; instinctively checking that it’s from joy, not fear.

・He has a habit of whispering mine when you’re asleep, his breath brushing your ear like a vow he can’t make aloud.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐁𝐀𝐋

・To the outsider, he is a scary creature. But with you ... god he just wants to be in your presence. To hold you, to keep you near.

・And to keep you from the world.

・Jealous incarnate; except he can keep it in check. Unless someone comes onto you.

・He wants you by his side, always

・There will be no male attention; only family memebers. Which is what he wants to say, but he knows that you won't follow those rules.

・He learns to recognise your perfume or scent trail anywhere - even in crowd - and visibly relaxes only when he finds you.

・He won’t start eating until you’ve taken your first bite. It’s habit.

・He calls you by nicknames that only exist between you; even hearing someone else use a similar tone makes him tense.

𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐈𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐑

・A grumpy warrior whose heart beats only for you

・Everyone else is unbearable to him.

・One time a man stopped you in the middle of the stalls. His arm was on yours and tried to get out of his grip

"Let go!" you exclaimed, blood starting to flow to your face, and heartbeat eccelrating.

・It was only a moment before Vermithor grabbed the man by the scruff of his neck and lifted him in the air like some wet kitten.

"Did you have bad hearing? Or are you an asshole?"

・The man was stuck-still in the air.

"I have bad hearing!" He whimpered.

・Vermithor rolled his bronze eyes and threw him on the ground.

・You knew than that no one was going to mess with you. Especially when Vermithor was there.

𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐗𝐄𝐒

・Surprisingly, he's quite the gentleman.

・It heightens when it comes to you. Which is to say, he opens doors, stands when you enter the room and makes sure you're safe.

・He hates when anyone makes you laugh, it feels like an intimate thing that should only be for him.

・Knows your body almost better than you do. Scars, freckles, moles etc. He knows exactly where they are on your body

・Keeps some of your things; pin, hair brush, trinkets. Things that you won't miss immediately.

・And you can feel him staring at you; specifically your throat where a necklace of hickies sits

・When you pull away during a heated kiss, his hand tightens at the back of your neck, silently begging you not to.

・When you’re cold, he doesn’t offer his coat; he just puts it on you, firm and certain, as if it was always meant for your shoulders.

𝐌𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐘𝐒

・You know more about Meleys, than you do about yourself. However, she can say the same.

・She knows your routines, knows how your heartbeat differs.

・Doesn't like anyone talking to you. Even in dragon form it's true.

・Will interrupt any conversation. It can drive you mad but she doesn't care.

・Meleys needs to have her hands on you, especially in public. It's where she can show everyone who you belong to.

・Has heightened senses and can listen in on conversation

・When you’re hurt, she becomes eerily calm; it’s not rage that drives her, it’s precision. She'll make sure it never happens again.

・She'll take the first watch every night; he can’t sleep until he’s sure you’re safe.

・When someone comments on your looks, she doesn’t argue; s he just wraps an arm around you in quiet confirmation that they’re looking at hers

From this poll, this series is born!

a/n: this is changing the dragons from not just mount, but to being able to shift into a human-like form at will...

𝑺𝑭𝑾🌿

・The dragons Westeros once known (and barely understood anyway)...had started to evolve. Where once were leathery wings and two clawed legs, now stood a man. A giant of a man truly, with eyes that could pierce the soul.

・Had this been what everyone else experienced? You couldn't ask - not now, as he had flown you to a secluded patch of land, far from King's Landing ... or any kind of civilisation.

・You didn't know how to react when the transformation was complete and Balerion found a tree, and sat down against it.

・You were INCREDULOUS! Unable to look at the naked man before you; this was not how the bond was supposed to work??

"Nyke ȳdra daor pendagon ao sagon supposed naejot gaomagon bona." (I don't think you're supposed to do that…) You hissed to Balerion.

"Skorkydoso would ao gīmigon skoros nyke se am daor supposed naejot gaomagon?" (How would you know what I am and am not supposed to do?)

・You nearly screeched... Fluent in High Valyrian! He can speak and he is FLUENT!

・Your nose flared as you swung to look at him.

・That day you learnt a great deal of things. Among them was the fact that he knew the common tongue as well, was practically always hungry, and the most important thing ... you still had to wrap your head around...

・That the bond you have with Balerion isn't just rider & and mount. It's a soulbond.

・This was how they kept dragons in Valyria; through blood magic they made them human. They could stay in either form whenever they wished.

・But it also meant every few years, whoever was the dragon's rider - was also their mate. As in ... romantic mate.

・"Yn, nyke going naejot sagon married?" (But, I'm going to be married?)

"Ao emagon issare chosen hae ñuhon." (You have been chosen as mine.)

"Ondoso qilōni!" (By who!)

"Nyke iderēptan ao." (I chose you.)

・Only those that had been chosen know about this.

・It took you a while to fully come to terms with the fact that more dragons depended on your bond with Balerion.

・He gave you space.

・But only for three days.

・Then he came waltzing through your door, and took a seat in front of the fireplace. His long legs stretching, large thick arms spread against the seat's frame.

・You had been fretting in your bed, unable to sleep, only thinking and thinking. Anxiety getting the best of you.

"Come sit by the fire," he said. Balerion's voice was gravelly, at times forced - the shift still not fully easy after all these years.

"You said you would give me time to think!" You huffed into your pillow.

"I have given you time. But I wish to be with my mate. Now come."

・You rolled your eyes, flung the blanket back and grabbed your pillow. Pressing it to your chest, you skulked over to the maroon coloured seat.

・Your breath was taken straight from your body as you saw him.

・With the fireplace the only source of light, Balerion looked both an angel and a demon.

・Horns protruded from his head, the same shape as when he was a scaled beast. His red eyes found you, thick lashes blinking slowly. Tanned, olive skin seemed to gleam in the firelight.

・Balerion seemed to have hundreds of scars, but it only added to his ruggedness.

・You moved forward and sat near him, the pillow used as a barrier between you two.

・You hadn't noticed the pointed ears, or the small braids in his long hair.

・But as you looked upon him, Balerion was doing the same to you.

・He lifted his large scarred hand and held it against your cheek.

"My mate."
