So I find this joffrey self insert fanfiction years ago where the plot is
SI-Joffrey has taken down Lysa Arryn and Petyr Baelish using his knowledge of the plot. .if any of you knows where to find them it'll be really helpful (if I remember correctly the sl is a bit amoral and it have nsfw )
Hello, I made for fun this ranking of the top House of the Dragon ships on ao3, this one is a bit different because I'm ranking by using the filter "otp:true" which consists of showing only works tagged with your selected pairing. While this method is useful for finding which works may be ship centric, it's not perfect since it excludes all works that have multiple relationships tagged, even those tagged using "&".
I searched for the most popular ships, and those with more than a hundred works in their ship tag, or rare pairings that I have seen appear sometimes in fics. I didn't search for polyships or ships with characters that haven't appeared in the tv show yet like Nettles or Daeron the Daring (siigh).
I may have missed some ships, like for example I only realized after I was done that I completely forgot that Larys Strong existed lol but a quick search shows Alicent/Larys "Larycent" would’ve been 23th and Larys/Aegon II "Larygon" 32th in the ranking.
(If your ship isn't in the ranking and you still want to know how many works they have with and without otp:true you can ask me in the comments, I later compiled that data of the many small ships that didn't make it or that I forgot to include at the time.)
One thing I found curious is that although Aemond and Rhaenyra are the two most extremely popular characters for ships (they have 8 ships each in the whole ranking, many within the Top 12) when they are shipped together... they ranked way lower than I expected, they have barely a hundred works and fewer than half that with the otp:true.
Anyway, if your ship is in this ranking, what made you ship them? or what do you like the most about them?
My favorite ship is Davron, they had great chemistry despite how briefly they appeared in the show, I like the Blackwood/Bracken houses' ancient infamous feud thing they've got going on, very Montagues vs Capulets. Also, I'm a sucker for good ol' enemies to lovers lol.
Hi, I want fanfic recs where the characters travel and explore either the Westeros or free cities or both. Any ship or no ship is fine. Thanks!
Rot. It smelled like rot, like a sick tree, a pond covered in moss. The smell lingered in Elbee's nostrils as the knight made his way across the field, blanketed in the morning mist. "Why did I open the door." Yawned Elbee. He had been enjoying blissful slumber in the arms of his wife when that cursed knock sent him on this grave errand. Each heavy step sank deeper into the soaked field, and each step brought a spray of mud across his black beeches, even reaching his sliver gambesome. Besides the sound of mud and boots, Elbee also heard the sound of loose straps colliding with his increasing loose steel cuirass. "Stupid boy," cursed Elbee. He needed his wife's help with his chest piece as his squire was nowhere to be found. The grey glow began to brighten as the sun perched further into the sky, illuminating the stones past the field.
Beyond the field, up the low hill, sat the ruins of the ancient maze that has shielded Amberly for generations. The maze was not grand, Elbee's head poked over the walls, the north and south portions collapsed entirely while the west end was ruins. Growing up, Elbee and his brothers would play in the maze. The two eldest, Elroy and Elrod would play ghost while the younger three would go hide. The games ceased when the middle brother Elwood was never found. Our lord father sent his dozens of knights through the maze and the land, but no Elwood was found. The ghost of the children they were flooded the knights' vision, so vivid they were almost real, they were hiding in the gap in the wall he was passing.. "They?" The knight said outloud. That's right, Elwood and Elmar always hid together Elbee, though to himself.
The dark grey stone of the maze finally gave way to walls of trees and mist as Elbee emerged. The knights boot trampling the white flowers that found purchase through the ruins of the walls. Elmar always liked to pick the flowers as gifts for his brothers. SMACK. The sound returned Elbee to reality as he marched into the woods. SMACK, the sound was closer, the knight knew he was getting close. What lay in the clearing beyond the trees will be a sight Elbee could never forget. Donald, his squire, lay motionless on the ground as two men continue to beat on a second boy. The sound of the club hitting the boys back drowned out the sound of Elbee drawing his steel, "In the name of King Jaehaerys, I command you stop!" The young knight yelled.
The two men looked back in fright, which quickly faded when they saw Elbee. "Young Ser Rogers! Please let me explain!" Said the man with the club. Elbee recognized them, Curt and Sid, two of our oldest amber miners. "These lads were caught stealing from the mine last night. The boy by the trees took the cowards way out while this boy passed out after 4 swings, we never ment to kill any of them, " said Curt as he dropped the club. The sounds that the two miners were making was barely anything besides blank sounds as Elbee was imagining telling Jon Goode, Amberlys master at arms, his mentor, his good father, that his son was dead. The thought of his wife's tears made the knights knees weak. "How did the first boy die?" Elbee asked, "He ate some of them White Buds over there." White Buds? The flowers he had trampled? "White Buds aren't poison" said Elbee, "You are right young ser, but he must of had garlic as well. It makes yer swallow the tongue." A familiar phrase to Elbee. "Well, since you are here, we figured we'd let you decide what to do with the bodies, you Rogers know,"The Right Way".
"The Right Way" the house words of his house, but Elbee was having difficulty finding the right way. The morning light pieces through the fading mist as he returns through the maze, but the image of his squires bloated face makes navigation difficult for the knight. It was a look Elbee had sadly seen times before, Elroy had passed first then Elrod a year later, both the same way as Donald had. He commanded Curt and Sid to take the bodies back to town. He couldn't stomach the idea. The maze twisted around the knight, whispering truths that couldn't be heard. Maybe it was the mention of garlic that has turned his stomach so, Elbee could never stomach garlic, an unpopular opinion at castle Amberly. Elbee wondered why Maester Byron never told us the dangers of White Bud. Maybe he did, Elbee was like the eldest brothers despite being the youngest, focused on the sword, not the pen.
The luck that made house Rogers the riches house in the Stormlands seemed to come at the cost of his brothers, thought Elbee, as the shadow of Amberly Castle and the towns walls began to spread across the maze. All his brothers besides Elmar, he seemed to outsmart the curse. The wind crosses the knight, blowing his lose straps wild, the smells of the town and a child's cry is carried by the wind. A child? Thought Ser Elbee, as he turned west to follow it. Elmar was the heir now, but he was on his way to be a maester, a couple more years under maester Byron he would have went to the Citadel. The knight continued to follow the maze of dark stone, down a path he was unfamiliar with, the memories of his brothersat play began haunt him again. The path came to an abrupt end, a wall of stone with a young tree growing in its corner. "The Right Way my ass" cursed Elbee as he began to turn "AAHH!" The cry was loud and sudden, almost knocking the knight down from shock.
A crow on a branch of the tree flies away. Elbee's fury was turn cold by what he noticed of the tree, or rather of the wall behind it, the corner had caved, leaving a opening as large as a child. "The Right Way" crossed the knights mind as he began to climb the tree. He hopped down into a hidden court yard that he had never been before. The yard was surrounded by a round wall that had no entrance, in the center, a weirwood tree stump. White Buds had taken over the yard, all besides a edge of the wall. The knight slow crosses the yard to the disturbance, the sounds of unseen children creep into his ears, a round of rocks lay at the spot. "Elmar outsmarted our curse" thought Elbee as he began to investigate the rocks. As the sun rises the shadow of Amberly crosses the maze into the forgotten yard, across the curious knigh, across the bushel of garlic growing from a child's bones.
P.S I got very carried away with this one but had blast! Hope you enjoy!
Context: current fic, Old Gods and The Seven drop Westeros and other continents on Marvel/DC/Harry Potter fused Earth. Only a small bit showing what happens to Viserys, the chapter is much longer.
Will later go and actually give Viserys more dialogue later as I polish it
Danaerys followed after her brother nervously through the halls after they had slipped away from the Witch tour guide, followed closely by Aegon, the boy Jon Connington claimed was their nephew.
A lot had changed in 5 years, it had all started when the slaving cities had fallen, Daenarys having later learned that the other cities had taken them down or they'd been taken down inside, the other cities claimed they had done it by themselves, but everyone knew they had been backed by these new 'nations' that claimed that Essos and Westeros had mysteriously ended up on their planet one day, something Viserys had scoffed at.
That changed when the foreigners could be seen flying over the skies, metal birds that did not flap their wings and others that they claimed could leave the planet, something Viserys had said they were just claiming to boast their power.
That all changed when Dragons could be seen flying over the skies, Viserys had been pleased, then enraged when he learned there was an entire civilization of witches and Wizards that harvested Dragons and used them for other stuff. Viserys had found one of the Wizarding buildings in Essos one day and stormed in, screaming how they were unworthy of dragons and that they should hand them over to him as he had the blood of the dragon. They'd been unceremoniously thrown out, Viserys screaming the whole time and demanding they unhand him.
Daenarys watched as Viserys entered one of the pits where a dragon, a 'hungarian horntail' was, Aegon and Daenarys looking at each other in fear as Viserys tried to claim the beast, the dragon looking unimpressed as if Viserys was an insect, Viserys going red with rage as he started yelling at the dragon, yelling that he was the blood of the dragon and it should submit to him, the dragon turning to face him fully now, Viserys smiling, clearly pleased and thinking that it was listening.
The next second Viserys was engulfed in flames, screaming as the dragon snapped him up in its massive maw, shaking its head furiously, the bottom half of Viserys flying in the air after being ripped away from the rest of her brother's body, the dragon snagging that from the air also as Daenarys started screaming at the sight of her brother being eaten
There's a great fic called "broken dreams" it's a time travel story that has jon meeting bloodraven and becoming a lot like him. And it made me realize that jon is the first person since bloodraven to have Targaryen blood and first men blood. And stark blood is arguably more magically potent than blackwood blood.
So are there any fics where they use that? Where jon kinda becomes like bloodraven. Because bloodraven is a badass guy, and i wish George would write a full on book about him(honestly more likely than WOW and DOS). But anyway recs?
Or maybe even cool ideas or scenarios with a jon with bloodravens powers and/or demeur or appearance.
Like imagine jon running into bloodraven before bran, and they have a nice chat. Some good old man advice, dark sister. And jon awakens greenser powers. Jon could meet bran, but I'm not sure if he would leave him. Do you think he could live with himself abandoning bran beyond the wall. Even when bran insists that he let him train. Jon might let his emotions rule him and abandon his mission to infiltrate the wildlings. Though maybe bloodraven will say something like "you gotta go boy, your girl's gonna wonder where you went". I can see bry giving jon relationship advice, telling him to enjoy the moments he has. To not be held back by his bastardy.
Daenys had three children: Aegon, Elaena, and an unnamed daughter. Aegon the Conqueror had two sisters. It’s cute how Aegon and Elaena loved each other and ruled together a la Aegon and Rhaenys.
I always liked the idea that Daenys and Aegon the Conqueror spoke through dragon dreams (the TV show made him one). Maybe at first she thought she was speaking to her son in the future and he’d become king with his two sisters as queens beside him?
Was Daenys’ other daughter married off to a petty lord because she realized that the Aegon who would conquer Westeros is actually from the next century? Given that the Doom happened 12 years after her dream, I wouldn’t blame her for thinking that her little son in 12 years or the near future would conquer Westeros with his two sisters and their dragons.
I know it’s a vague prompt but I think it could be short, bittersweet fic!

The fanfics name is New Worlds, Lost Wanderers by Bluntfiend1 on spacebattles and ao3. It’s a ASOIAF crossover with Warhammer Fantasy. The main things of note is that the crossover takes place fully in Westeros with all the main characters waking up in different regions. None of the warhammer characters are named ones from lore each being original. The fic is very au but I don’t want to spoil anything by mentioning what changes. I shared the spacebattles link because bluntfiend1 does chat with commenters about his story. This is my first time sharing a fic but I think some people will want to take a look.
Hello! Longtime lurker, first-time poster. I have written the beginnings of an outline for a fic I'd like to write. The premise is that Stannis turns Melisandre away at Dragonstone and later has an uncharacteristic moment of sentiment parleying with Renly, agreeing to capitulate and joining forces with him.
I have a Google doc that I'd be sharing, I've got it planned out roughly to what would be the events of ADWD. Please let me know if you'd be interested and I can share a link here or DM one so you can take a quick look and let me know what you think! Thanks in advance.
Edited to fix grammar.
As authors, tell us what you wrote during the month of April, it does not have to be published, brainstorming ideas are absolutely okay to share as well, the floor is yours.
I have also included a template if you wish to use it, it's completely optional:
How much did you write in April?
How much did you upload in April?
Are you happy with what you wrote?
If you set goals for April did you meet them?
What is the plan for May?
Self-rate out of 10 for April?
I actually opened this question through the concept of my story, that I would like to have discussed.
Nevertheless, we know Rhaegar would have to consider remarrying. Please, in your thoughts, consider, if anyone apart from Elia would make a good Queen.
For me, it is Catelyn.

Context: Old Gods and New put the Planetos continents onto a DC/Marvel/Harry Potter infused Earth. In this the wizarding world was exposed during 2008 in Darkseid invasion, and the world has entered a golden era, huge population boom, technology and science boom, Moon and Mars being colonized while plans to colonize the rest of the Sol System is in place. Takes place around late 2013/290 AC
As of now I'm writing several heroes (Wonder Woman, Tony Stark, Hal Jordan, Harry Potter) meeting Robert Baratheon and explaining what happened and the predicament to the place.
After that is the Lords of Westeros at the Red Keep as Robert informs them all what has occurred and how he was set to meet the world leaders soon with Jon Arryn.
But now I realize I don't know what the best place for the meeting would be for Robert and Jon Arryn to meet the world leaders, Red Keep, UN headquarters in New York, or somewhere else.
Keep in my the Game of Thrones/ASOIAF books and show don't exist on this Earth
Any fanfics where Dany is born during the time of Tales from Dunk & Egg, or where Dunk is part of Dany's guard alongside Jorah? I don't know, I found the idea interesting but AO3 doesn't offer anything coherent.
I would prefer a platonic relationship.
So I have a character who escapes the Red Wedding, and flees North. His goal is to reach the wolfswood but Winterfell is the end-marker because its so close to the forest anyway.
But theres a few things he has to do.
1) A boat ride /swimming through the swampy parts of the Neck
2) Walking through the bog surrounding Moat Cailin
3)A horse ride and walk after reaching walkable soil and ground.
For number 3, he will sometimes use horse, or walk, and also stop by inns and villages.
My estimate is around 3 weeks to ~1 month if we are being optimistic.
What do you yall think of the travelling, problems, and time taken?
Jaime is called kingslayer, Tyrion - imp, Robert - usurper, Viserys - beggar king, Mace Tyrell - fat flower, Theon - turncloak, ect...
Cersei and Tywin are arguably even more hated by the people of westeros, but everyone refer to them only by their names or titles.
What do you think offensive nicknames for them can be?
What do we think would change if Old Walder Frey dies unexpectedly a month before the Red Wedding.
He dies one morning and suddenly House Frey falls into minor chaos as multiple sons vie for control, favour or retribution against other members of the family.
Does the Red Wedding still manage to occur or do the Freys in the aftermath accept Robbs offer and let him pass freely through the twins.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AsoiafFanfiction/s/Lz4kOosDdd ok I know I said I would only post this AU idea if the original post got 30 up votes but if I'm being honest I didn't think it wouldnt even get 5 so since it got more than I thought I decided to post more details of the AU and lore.
So like the original post stated its a cross over AU with monster hunter stories and that it would contain events from the Ageon's conquest to the dance of the dragons and maybe after.
Lore wise sometime between the doom of valeria and Ageon's conquest a strange sellsword company showed up around Essos, they were only 1000 men strong but each of them had at least one mighty beast as their mount, these monsties they called them were fierce and they came in all sames and sizes. This sellsword company called themselves the children of Redan, they kept many secrets about themselves, their beasts and where they came from private. These riders had a policy to price their work based off how well they performed the jobs and whoever does not pay their price is blacklisted until they pay their debts. The company has five branches with the head branch being the Razewing branch its sigil being based of a monster known as rathaloss the king of the skies.
The children of Redan develop a reputation of a perfect success rate, they aren't limited to who they work with besides from the likes of Slave owners and don't limited themselves to what jobs they'll take as long as no innocents are harmed, and they don't limited the jobs to combat based one's they often have their monstie aid in transportation and physical labour.
Before Ageon set land on the area that would come to be known as Kingslanding, when he was still planning his conquest he had a small worry about the possibility of the children of Redan being hired by one of the seven kingdoms, if they were just another sellsword company he wouldn't consider the possibility of that happening a problem but since they had their monsters he didn't want to take the risk of them being a threat, he may have had three large dragons, but more than 200 hundred of their monsters were said to be various aerial beasts of fire, lightning, ice and venom.
So he made a contract with them and hired them to aid in his conquest and the price they asked for.....
Well if this post or the others gets enough upvotes then I'll make a post on the conquest.
If any of you have any thoughts on this idea, any suggestions etc just don't be a jerk
Title: Maester Aemon's Guide to Duty
Authors: FenceSittersAnonymous
Rating: M
Language: English
Length: 43K
Status: In-Progress
Link: Chapter One Chapter Six
Summary: “Seventy years we will give you back, a gift of life you should have had, but nothing gained is ever free, paid in years they shall not see.”
The deal is made. Yet when Maester Aemon wakes up, sure that it was but a cruel dream and he is still alive with the regrets of a lifetime consuming him, he expects to hear Samwell Tarly and Gilly and to still be at sea.
Instead, he finds himself in a feather bed in chambers he has not seen in over seventy years, in a time he has no business being in, and with a man he had not hoped to see again sat by his bedside.
Yet even the Gods can’t predict just how differently things go. Really, he should have known better than to expect changing the future to be simple.
Chapter Summary: Our favourite dysfunctional Targaryens have dinner and the Grand Maester briefs the Conclave
I'm currently planning out a fic I might write where Baelor and Maekar are "reborn" into the Dance era. The parings are Balor/Alicent and Maekar/Laena. I'm a little stuck on who should have which kids. Baelor and Maekar also have their memories from their "past lives". I'm also planning on them having some kids who are very similar to their original kids, but they are in no way their original kids. Basically, Baelor may have a son with Alicent named Matarys that acts very similar to his original son, but this Matarys is a separate person. Almost like the kids were also reborn, but without their memories and slightly different personalities.
The birth order of the Green kids may be different. I'm also considering splitting Rhaena and Baela.
Does anyone know any names that could be used for a female Valarr? The closest I've gotten is Valaena, but I feel like that's more of a Velaryon name. I'm thinking of either doing a female Valarr or him having a twin sister.
Out of his original kids, which of them should I give Maekar?
Valaena? ans/or Valarr, Matarys and Aemond are Alicent and Baelor's kids. I'm just having trouble with Aegon, Helaena, Daeron, Baela and Rhaena.
I'll be happy to explain more if something's confusing.
