#y'all drop everything and read 👏 this 👏 series!!

[ladylannisterxo]

Listen. I just wanna talk. Girlllll before I get into it, I just wanna say that you have done it again!! What a phenomenal fucking story and good GOD, you were not kidding about the angst. My heart is in ruins but damn if this wasn't a beautiful, wonderful journey. NOW... to ensure I caught everything I wanted to say, I actually wrote down thoughts as I was reading sooooo just for you... real time reactions under the cut ajdaksdhsakj

"I think you saved him from becoming a monster." Shut UP! I will cry! I'm not prepared to see how this all plays out omgg!!

Legit obsessed with the fact that baby Jaehaerys is just a mini Aegon ajdgaksdak

Okay but Frostfyre is a bitching name - good for Laurel!

"Your life would be simpler without me in it." - "Simpler, perhaps. But not better." Your honor, I am in love with their friendship... really, it's all Aegon needs, I think. A friend.

It's important for me to admit that I have not read Fire and Blood buuut I did do some simple googling after the finale and not my girl saying she would like to return to The God's Eye (and honestly, now that I'm formatting this, I realize that with the way this all ended, technically, she does return because she's that damn Moonstone pendant he still wears 😭😭😭).

Not me absolutely knowing what happened at Storm's End and still getting that deep uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach - just a testament to your extraordinary writing!!

YOU'RE KILLING ME HERE!! She's gonna leave, she doesn't want to, but it's what makes the most sense for Laurel (and her). I'm dying here... DYING!!

OKAY but as a long time reader of maaaany of your fics, seeing calla lilies making a comeback in this final chapter has got me feeling some type of way. HOW DARE YOU!

SHUT UP!! "No one has told Aegon yet. Aemond doesn't want to be the one to do it. You aren't sure how." Omgg but they're besties!! What's he gonna do without her?!

Oh I am just eating UP that confrontation between Aemond and Aegon like omgg the writing is so fucking stellar and they both love her but in completely different ways and AHHHHHH!!!

Someone is in here with me. Someone with a blade. EXCUSE ME?! NO FUCKING WAY, YOU ARE NOT!!!

Well that was tense as fuck but not me getting emotional over her, Aegon, and Aemond just huddled together on the floor. I cannot HANDLE THIS!!

Biiiiiiitch (affectionate), you have RUINED me - them saying goodbye as she boards the ship to Dorne... my heart can't fucking take much more of this!

Oh no. Oh no. Oh no oh no OH NO!!!

And uhhhh yeah, that's about where I stopped writing down my thoughts just so I could focus on that INSANE ending!! OMG like there was just nothing anyone could do - it was over the second she realized what all of Helaena's prophecies meant. And AEMOND, fucking hell, my heart was ripped out in the same way I'm sure his fingernails were as he clawed at the floor trying to get to her and his baby. He'll definitely never be the same but fuck, it's got me thinking like... as the weeks turn into months turn into the next year, every decision he makes is made fully with the thought of what happened to her and Laurel in mind but I just know, beneath all that RAGE, he blames himself for sending her and Laurel away. While he's sure of himself on the battlefield, he probably spends those lonely nights second guessing himself, wondering what he could have done differently, if anything at all 😭😭😭 ah fuck, I gotta stop.

Alright, enough rambling. Babe, my love, you talented, extraordinary writer you! THANK YOU, truly, from the bottom of my heart for gracing us all with this stellar fic series! What a journey it has been and I cannot wait to go back and re-read to see what I may have missed or what makes sense knowing how it all ends. I knew you were gonna get me with the angst but I can honestly say this was not what I was expecting. Loved it all the same just as much as I love you! Congrats on finishing yet another series and I can't wait to see what you write next!! 💕💕💕

Have You No Idea That You’re In Deep? [Chapter 8: Starfall] [Series Finale]

Aemond is a fearless, enigmatic prince and the most renowned dragonrider of the Greens. You are a daughter of House Mormont and a lady-in-waiting to Princess Helaena. You can’t ignore each other, even though you probably should. In fact, you might have found a love worth killing for.

A/N: Hello all! At long last, here is the conclusion of this series. Thank you for all the love that this fic has received; I am truly thrilled beyond words to read each and every one of your thoughts, rants, outbursts, compliments, complaints, and analyses. My first idea for a story is always the ending, so I’ve had parts of this finale written in my Word Doc since before I published the first chapter. Still, it feels very surreal to have finally finished it. I hope it is worth the wait. 💜

Song inspiration: “Do I Wanna Know?” by Arctic Monkeys.

Chapter warnings: Language, violence, death and destruction, ANGST, dad!Aemond, Aegon-related chaos, prophesies for days, a tiny bit of sexual content, dragons, drama, lots of shouting, if you have not read Fire & Blood then you should know that there are SOME spoilers/allusions involving certain characters (but not that many). If you are concerned about avoiding spoilers but still want to read, please just DM me and I would be happy to tell you which part to skip. :)

“Goodbye, Papa,” you whisper for your daughter who cannot yet speak, your cheek pressed to Laurel’s. You wave her tiny hand as Aemond and Vhagar vanish into a horizon that’s darkening like a bruise: gold, blue, violet, black, punctuated by rising stars. Encroaching thunder growls like a dragon. Lightning flashes as raindrops begin to fall from the sky. “Goodbye. Good luck. We’ll see you again soon.”

You retreat back inside the Red Keep and accompany Helaena and the children to Alicent’s rooms. As Jaehaera and Maelor play agreeably on the floor with woodcarvings of animals—and Jaehaerys mutilates a horse figurine with a toy mallet, targeting one leg at a time—you trade with the old queen: you give her a very drowsy Laurel, and she hands you her embroidery. The pattern is a simple white watchtower, but you’re so distracted thinking about Aemond and Storm’s End that you promptly botch it and tangle the threads beyond repair.
