Summary
If the Red Keep wasn’t already the place to be in London tonight, then it certainly is now. Rhaenyra Targaryen has declared it so.
Alicent swigs her prosecco, swallowing hard, and forces a smile. “No, it’s fine. It’s a superclub, right? There’ll be so many people, and she’ll be VIP. We won’t see her.”
I won’t see her, she repeats internally, a mantra and a misery all at once.

Alicent’s friends drag her to a club opening to celebrate her birthday. Turns out her ex-girlfriend has similar plans.

Summary
What are you wearing?” Alicent hissed.
She had ambushed Rhaenyra after the small council meeting, once the men had all left, pulling her into a tapestry covered alcove by her arm. Not by the—
Alicent inhaled sharply, shakily, and snapped her gaze back to Rhaenyra’s face.
“Oh, this?” Rhaenyra said. Her usually low voice was soft and highly pitched. As though she was surprised to be accosted, her eyes grew wide. Playing at the innocent child that she never had been, always insolent, always up to something. Slowly, she slid her thumbs between the silk of her dress and the gold chain shimmering around her waist.
Alicent and Rhaenyra have a chat. That's all.

Summary
It was entirely unfair, Alicent thought, that on this day (a day where she was hungover, had no make-up on, was sweating to the point that she could feel it beading on her temple and upper lip, and her shirt was sticking everywhere) she would come face-to-face with the most gorgeous woman she had ever seen.
“Hi,” the object of Alicent’s frustration said amiably, standing behind the till in the Student Union’s coffee shop. “How are you?”
In which Alicent Hightower drinks coffee, makes small talk, and really, really fancies her favourite barista.
