Fandoms: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (TV)
24 Jun 2026

Summary
"Apologies, Lord Lannister," Ser Duncan says, his voice steady, tone stern. Aerion has to, embarrassingly enough, go on his tiptoes to catch a look at his profile, and his face seems confident, not at all intimidated by the annoyed gaze Lannister throws him. "Prince Maekar was very clear that no one was to touch Prince Aerion without his explicit consent."
Lord Lannister makes a complicated face, as if he can't quite understand the words out of Ser Duncan's mouth. "Pardon me? No, Prince Maekar wants his son wed within the year. All of the Seven Kingdoms has heard it by now. If he expects no one to touch him, he might as well lock him in his chambers and lose the key!"
Aerion steps forward as white-hot anger flashes in his veins; he moves, intending to beat this puny little lord's insolence to a bloody pulp, but Ser Duncan throws an arm out and forcibly shoves Aerion back behind him, a warning growl on his lips.
Lord Lannister freezes. Aerion freezes. Ser Duncan stays relaxed.

Summary
His grandmother was the one who taught Gen about their connection.
Someone else might have called it magic, or a power, or a gift. But she never used any of those words. “It’s simply what we are,” she told him. “A conversation between us and the land.”
The spirits of the place - root, leaf, cloud, river, stone - spoke to them. And they could speak back, even command to a gentle extent. Gen’s grandmother could coax stubborn plants into flourishing, call a storm’s attention until it gathered overhead, or listen to the wind mutter news from distant hills. She said every human had a connection to the earth’s spirit, but most were deaf to it. Gen and his grandmother, though - theirs ran deep. Deeper than reason, deeper than blood.
--
Gen is magic. This changes everything.

Summary
Someone slams into him as they walk along the road.
“My apologies,” a man’s voice says.
A trickle of water from a fountain snaps his attention away from whoever it was he bumped into. Lucanis needs to fill up his waterskin, so he walks away briskly.
“Levity,” Spite says. Lucanis ignores him.In the time of peace, things can get very boring. Luckily for the Antivan Crows, there is always something to do. In this particular case, it means travelling to Rivain on a contract for a target Lucanis and Illario know nothing about. Not the most inconvenient place to go, since Lucanis could use help with an increasingly demanding Spite, and Rivain is teeming with seers.

- “BigBoy777”? really?
Henry groaned - he had forgotten the name because he hadn’t set up his profile to begin with. That had been another ex-girlfriend, Bianca, and - wait a minute, when and why had his exs unionized to demand he get regular hole.
Honestly though this guy’s name wasn’t much better: “LordLP”. “Lord”? in this modern year of Our Lord. “LP”? Music business guy? Record enthusiast?
yeah sorry a friend set this up for me -
- oh so you’re not a trap account lovely
- so… did your friend want to sabotage you or … ?
I mean it works I’m not a small guy by any measure -Henry gets asked to do sex work for a random guy on a hookup app. The guy has a hot body and Henry's a poor grad student, so he figures, why not have a little adventure.

Summary
In the Shire there were two truths. The Tooks were odd and the Baggins were respectable. The Baggins family dealt in contracts and favours, and while the Shire knew that the Tooks were odd, it was the Baggins family that had other blood running through their veins.
Bilbo Baggins did not go running out his door for want of an adventure, he went running out his door because of a terribly worded contract and a laughable quest that somehow held the spark of other.
In this story, it is not the Tooks that held fae blood in their family tree, it is the Baggins, and theirs is so much closer to the surface.- Language:

Summary
“And you’re sure this is meshala,” Venndred sounds contemplative.
“No,” he replied and scrubs his face, “but there’s nothing else I can think of to describe how I feel. I have felt deep… unconditional love… This is not that. This is… all consuming. I would-” he cuts himself off, swallows, mildly horrified at what he’s about to say, “I would disrupt these talks if it means taking her out of here and bringing her home. If the choice was between this alliance and her…" His lip curls a little, bearing his teeth, "I would meet the Vaitel with Lenia alone and smite them to the furthest depths of space,” he shudders.
“That’s a frankly horrifying thought,” Venndred’s voice is its typical mildly cheerful tone as he seems to sit with it.
“It’s terrifying…” he looks at the screen, “I have the entirety of Lenia under my care and... I could wipe us out because I found my heartsong…"
************
Daimion Athannus never wanted to be King of Lenia, never wanted the power or the weight of the crown.
And now he has a war to win, an alliance to settle... and the single wrench that could foil the entire thing.Bookmarked by FormidableDusk

“...Knives,” he said, his chin jerked up with pride despite how out of place he looked on the floor, hooded cape spread out beneath him like wings. “Millions Knives.”
“That’s edgy,” Vash said. “Are you sure you’re not the outlaw here?”
——After a lifetime of being seemingly the only one of his kind, Vash finds a bloody boy in a recently decommissioned carrier ship.

Summary
“Vash,” Nai says again, confusion coloring the humor now, overcoming it. “What are you doing?” Repetition. He asks the same questions of Vash over and over without realizing it. Whose side are you on? Are you going to shoot me? Nai takes a step forward.
“I have a proposal,” Vash says, hating the way his voice shakes. The word hits the way he means it to; he watches it shiver up Nai’s spine. He watches Nai’s fingers twitch.
He watches Nai freeze as Vash brings the gun to his own temple.
Vash makes an exchange for peace. As long as Knives doesn't find out he's dying, it might actually work.

Summary
But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and the jackass varsity lacrosse star Ajax is the sun, the moon, and the center of the universe at Vindagnyr Prep. Unfortunately, there's not much that Bennett, recent transfer and theatre techie, can do about his leading role in the school play.
Not when the department needs more ticket sales. Not when everybody loves the guy that reminds Bennett a little too much of the bullies he transferred to escape. Not when a casting emergency lands Bennett in the scariest place possible: center stage.

“It wasn’t a bad start,” Brad says and Nate thinks back to the sun rising over the desert, Brad’s hidden smile just for Nate.
“It wasn’t,” Nate says. Brad’s arm brushes the smallest bit against Nate’s, sending a fizz of energy through Nate.
It could have been accidental. It wasn’t.

Summary
Brad-021 is a Spartan: an enhanced supersoldier equipped with highly advanced powered armour; swift, efficient, and deadly. Together with Nate, his Artificial Intelligence, he has fought the Covenant, an alliance of alien species who see humanity as an affront to their gods, and discovered the Halo rings, an array of ancient superweapons designed to wipe out all life in the galaxy to prevent the spread of a terrifying parasitic organism called the Flood.
After a decisive battle at the Halos’ control station, the emergent Flood is defeated and the Covenant is fractured – but Brad and Nate are left stranded in deep space with little hope of rescue.
Now, awakening from cryogenic stasis after four long years, Brad faces a new threat to Earth from an ancient and long-forgotten evil. But with the deterioration of the AI companion he’s grown so close to, he must also reckon with one of the few fears he has left: losing Nate.

Summary
One rising and one falling star crash head-on in the rain. The deal is simple: for his silence, the unluckiest boy in the world moves in with the mysteriously wealthy stranger who nearly killed him, all expenses paid.
A six-to-eight week recovery period isn't long enough to change anyone's life. Not for Bennett who, having lost everything, has nowhere to go but up. Not for Ajax—gamer tag Childe—who is secretly one of the most (in)famous streamers in the world.
Hands at ten and two.

Summary
“Further testing will be required before we can say with certainty,” he said, “but the early results seem to suggest Ivy’s pollen has caused some sort of need for proximity in you both. Specifically, you both experienced pain as soon as you were separated by more than twelve feet.”
“Pain that increased and decreased as the distance did,” Tim said grimly.
“And is getting worse each time,” Jason finished, scrubbing a hand through his hair. “Goddamn.”

“Do you want to fuck me?” He Tian wrenched his hands away, too shocked to keep his mouth from dropping open. Mo’s eyes followed his hands, dark and thoughtful. “You do, right? You wanted to when you thought I was a beta, so you must want to now.”
---
If things can go wrong in Mo Guanshan's life they will do their best to go wrong, this is just a fact. Never is this more true the night She Li, and his followers, overwhelm and beat him. That is the night that Mo learns he isn't a beta like he'd always assumed. That's the night She Li's obsession takes a new, terrible turn. That's the night he decides to stop beating around the bush with He Tian, and instead rely on the alpha (but only a little, and just for now!)
