Robert Royce:

Willem: Robert, the prat, has his eyes set on Naerys, so maybe I can try with Princess Gael-

Gael: Absolutly not. I will tame a dragon just to feed you to them.

Willem: Alright, so that's a no.

*physically biting tongue to keep spoilers in*

Willem would be flambéed by Alysanne in sheer rage at the audacity.

Robert Royce AU

Yorbert: This is my bpy Robert, already knight at 17! Mora than worth of Lamentation, he fill me with pride!

Yobert: ... and this is Willem, he was born first.

Willem: Thats it!?

Yobert: Did you do something to make me proud while I wasn't looking? No? Then be quiet!

Willem is cringe loser fail in a bad way and Robert is mansplain, manwhore, manslaughter in a good way.

But also, BGR showed Rhea as very sharp and astute to the point of being skilled in military strategy. Robert is a fusion of gender weird HOTD Rhea and astute BGR Rhea combining those traits and shoving it into a hot bod.

The anon who suggested the Regency au:

I actually really like Naerys/Daemon, both when they are able to be together (Daella lives, Lady Hightower) and when they don't (the fic's canon), love their dynamic.

But I also love the bond between Aemma and Naerys, so I tried to come up with a AU where Aemma lives and is free from Viserys and Daemon was kinda collateral damage 🤫

it’s fine really. As much as we put painstaking effort in RF for Daemon & Naerys, Naerys would still prioritise Aemma all the time.

Honestly if Daemon had been allowed to live he would’ve married Rhaenyra in two hours and Naerys would’ve killed him because A) Minor B) that’s my fucking niece and C) she swore that oath to kill him if ever did shit like this in the fic.

Concepts like these are fun to talk and write about and I encourage everyone to send stuff like this because honestly it’s entertaining to consider…what if?

[tbtgtr-incorrectquotes]

do you have anything for the robert royce au?

Yes, it’s in a screenplay format, which I was considering for a different fic but needed to experiment with. But here!

NAERYS:

What is this?

DAEMON:

Power. Do you not like it?

(He’s smiling, they both know she loves it. His sword is at Robert’s neck, Robert’s sword is just above Daemon’s heart.)

NAERYS:

It suits me, it doesn’t mean I’m worthy of it.

ROBERT:

You are worthy if we say you are.

NAERYS:

Do you love me?

ROBERT & DAEMON:

Yes.

NAERYS:

Then why make me choose?

ROBERT:

Only one can leave alive.

DAEMON:

Only one can survive.

(Naerys takes a breath, she opens her mouth, perhaps to protest, to choose, to argue. It doesn't matter. The lights shift away from Robert, Naerys and Daemon and focus upon Baelon and Harrold Westerling. It is decided.)

Robert Royce:

Jaehaerys gives Dark Sister to Daemon and he just goes "Hah! Now I can kick that asshole Royce in the training yard again!"

Baelon wishes Daemon was less his mother's son sometimes

They have a full on duel that @maelor321 thinks will end in death although I see Baelon or Ser Harrold (W) putting a stop to that real quick because having a son of House Targaryen kill a man who has committed no crime and is a loyal vassal means that the relations between the Vale and the Crown sour real quick and cast shame on Baelon’s faction of support.

So, full on duel, Naerys is married off to I do wanna say Robert, and that’s that (it’s not but they don’t know that)

[tbtgtr-incorrectquotes]

Ironic Robert Royce would be his dad's favorite when in canon Rhea's dad treated her like shit

it is (and it’s sad)

[tbtgtr-incorrectquotes]

Imagining Daemon reaction to seeing Robert Royce for the first time after Robert had his growth spurt and is now a head taller than Daemon

Daemon: i’m pretty tall—

Robert Royce, carrying Willem’s bastard daughter with him: Hi Naerys!

Naerys: Hellllloooo Sailor

Daemon: HIM?

Naerys: he’s tall and such a good uncle, imagine him with kids

Daemon: what about me???

Naerys: you’re basic Valyrian, that over there is refined Andal <3

[tbtgtr-incorrectquotes]

I imagine Daemon annoys the shit out of Mysaria by complaining about Rhea and bemoaning about Naerys, but she is somehow even more annoyed in the Robert Royce au.

Since he'a not only bitching about Robert as a person, but also about Robert's daring to think he has a shot with Naerys.

So even more whinning

listen Robert Royce is BUILT my dude, even Mysaria can appreciate that. And Rhea’s prettiness which is neither here or there yet.

Mysaria’s just decided to fuck Daemon to get him to shut up and call it a day. which fair, Daemon complains so fucking much so honestly some distracted if excellent sex is better than listening to him whine.
