A : AFTERCARE

Starting out, Genavene is a little distant after sex. Considering her previous experiences prior to Vaelor, she didn't necessarily expect much from him, and she hadn't expected him to want much in return, (he doesn't, he's frankly just a happy little cucumber to be in her presence.) she thought it'd be a "done-and-go" thing... it was not. Unfortunately (but actually VERY fortunately) she got cursed with the most reasonable man of his century who believed that if she "helps him out" he should "help her out" and it turns out? Once you give Genavene Hightower a safe place to get out of her shell she becomes THE CUDDLE-BUG, if Vaelor isn't cuddling her as soon as he can after sex, she will start becoming pouty and (for lack of a better term) bitchy. She will start huffing and saying shit like, "You don't love me anymore!" if he does not become a human pillow for her quick enough. Vaelor, meanwhile, is from the first time, trying to make sure she's fine. He's trying to clean her up, asking to hold her, etc. He likes playing with her hair afterward when they're laying down together. She'll usually face away from him, and he'll wrap an arm around her. Genavene prefers it that way, in the event she started to cry. She doesn't want him asking questions. Vaelor is perfect, she wouldn't want to ruin that. (She wouldn't ruin anything.)

B : BODY PART

Genavene finds Vaelor's hands to be the most appealing thing about him physically. No, not the mythic silver-blonde hair inherited by most Valyrians, nor the violet eyes, or the fact he's hiding a sleeper build beneath that sleepwear that looks like it was wrangled from the grave of Ebeneezer Scrooge, not even that pretty nose she likes to feel nudge her clit every now and then - she prefers, above all else, to stare at his hands. They're not the soft hands of a typical prince, they're calloused from his late nights spent sitting at his workbench, tending to his projects of clay or silk. In a way, the callouses are a display of his love for all he holds dear. Vaelor is a BIG fan of everything about Genavene, although specifically, her upper-body. If there was anything he could pick out in particular it'd probably be her hips or stomach, for whatever reason, he likes holding onto her around there, or wrapping his arms around her. He's naturally very cold (ironic, 'innit?) and she runs hot, so, not only does he get an excuse to cuddle up with his cuddlebug Gena, but he also just likes to imagine that, if he can't protect her by dragon or by sword, he can at least protect her by shrouding her in his body when emotions are rough.

C : CUM

So... Vaelor has a tiny bit of a breeding kink, BUT! Genavene isn't necessarily looking to get pregnant when they first hook-up so, aside from the occasional dose of moon tea, her only other form of birth control is making sure Vaelor pulls out - which, Vaelor is a VERY good boy, and does as our girl Gena wants, always. Vaelor would not want to "ruin" her reputation or life with a bastard child, (cue guilt for laying with her at all, unmarried - even if he isn't necessarily religious.) in fact, y'know, he'd love to marry her... she just doesn't really want to marry him and she kind of seems to hate his family aside from Rhaenyra and he doesn't really understand why. So, the majority of the time pre-marriage (except for the rare occasion where she tells him to do so, knowing that Ceryse is supplying her with moon tea that night.) he's coming on her stomach or chest, and he's very good about helping her clean up. Post-marriage, it becomes less common, they typically try to plan around their children, but also considering that with marriage comes security for their relationship, Genavene's a little more comfortable with him coming inside her, but it is still very much something they discuss whether mid-act or prior where she wants it.

D : DIRTY SECRET

Shockingly cannot think of anything for Genavene, BUT VAELOR? Do I have a treat to tell you about my pet freak. He's jacked off using fabric he intended to use for a garment he was making for Gena. He did clean the fabric personally, as he wasn't going to dare burdening the laundresses with the duty... but he still used the fabric for the garment.

E : EXPERIENCE

Well, to put it lightly Genavene's past experiences were not great. Whatsoever. So, what she did know what mostly how to either "lay there and take it" or do everything herself because for some godsforsaken reason, Jason Lannister can get it up for her, but he can't be bothered to help her get it down, and when he does, he can't be bothered to help her get herself off. Vaelor had NONE before Genavene, aside from what Matthos had told him about his adventures about the Street of Silk. Which thankfully for Genavene, does involve actually being a decent human being and letting the lady orgasm. (Yes, Vaelor is canonically the first man who makes her willingly orgasm, even if, he is not her first.) Since Genavene, he might have indulged in the occasional instructional novel... and y'know she knows what she wants, it makes her a helpful guide, given that she's the only one he's trying to please. (at least until Matthos... but fortunately, he's a bit of the same in this regard.) She's not afraid to demonstrate what she wants him to do with her hands.

F : FAVORITE POSITION

If I didn't say it was the lotus position, I would simply be wrong. Those two need to be WRAPPED around each other. The feeling IS mutual towards this position, if they are not staring into each other's souls while actively engaging in ye-olde tango, the world might as well end. Otherwise, reverse cowgirl (fun desk sex! Not fun for the desk, VERY fun for Genavaelor!) and missionary (in the rare circumstance Vaelor is on top.) Honorary Matthos mention : Doggy-style paired with a mirror kink. Yes there is a mirror on every side of that man's room, including in front of the bed, and yes, they get freaky with it.

G : GOOFY

Genavene begins, trying to shy away from the intimacy that comes with sex, (while subconsciously seeking out that intimacy - a story for another time.) and a good deal of that comes out in teasing, and joking, but also in being a little on the abrasive side. Vaelor just looks constipated when he's attempting to be "serious" and "manly" and... when he's trying too hard it does make Gena get a little giggly because it's endearing to her how much he wants to please her. As they grow together in their intimacy, she becomes less frightened by the idea of growing close with him, but she does still maintain that playfulness because she is naturally inclined towards it. I can't really figure out how to go in-depth but pussy-drunk Vaelor is definitely a little silly and loose.

H : HAIR

Vaelor has sensory issues and as such, keeps himself relatively clean-cut down below, I'd say his hair is more of an ash-blonde around the base, whereas the hair on his head is the typical Valyrian silver-blonde. Gena's hair is about the same as the hair on her head, she's well groomed, but keeps a bit of a bush. Vaelor is a little feral over it. (Munch.)

I : INTIMACY

As much as Genavene tries not to, she craves intimacy, and once she grows comfortable with Vaelor, there's a softness to them during sex? They're always touching, during and after, she might hide her face in his neck, or he in hers. Sometimes - well, oftentimes, they hold hands. Vaelor likes to trace shapes into her back and up her arms with his fingers. If she asked him, he might recite a poem or tale to her, for whatever reason she desired to hear it.

J : JACK OFF

Considering Genavene's history, YES, that girly is masturbating regularly, because frankly, her fingers are the only thing she can trust, but, with Vaelor... she does not mind it when he fingers her. In fact, she prefers it to her own fingers, because while he doesn't begin entirely skilled, he's willing to learn, and when he learns... it's not long before she's finishing on his fingers, and she does not mind at all when he asks if he can clean her up with his tongue. Also, yeah, she did get herself off to the memory of their first time together after it happened, so... do with that what you will. Vaelor isn't one to jack off often prior to Gena - well, there was the occasional time after talking to Matthos, who was always so vivid about his excursions to the Street of Silk. But after? He might steal a square of fabric from whatever he's using to make her a garment and get off, if the need takes him and Gena's unavailable.

K : KINK

Both of them have horrible, awful praise kinks... tell that girl she's good and worthy and bright and deserving of love, even if she doesn't believe, and tell that boy that he's good and worthy and bright and deserving of love, even if he doesn't believe. They also share a kink for light exhibitionism. Both also like having their hair played with, which does lead into Vaelor specifically having a hair-pulling kink, PLEASE, pull that man's hair and call him a good boy. He also has a slight kink for sensory play, no ice cubes, he's already cold enough, but feathers and silk? Sure, why not? Genavene has a voice kink - listen, she had to. With as much as she loves hearing that man ramble on, can't fully explain, but his nerdiness gets her going.

L : LOCATION

Vaelor's bedchamber, which is basically their's since once they marry, Gena's rarely, if at all, in her own, at least at the Red Keep and Harrenhal. At Swan's Neck, they prefer Genavene's chambers... although Vaelor's workshop at Swan's Neck gets some extensive use throughout the years. That being said, the halls of the Red Keep (and Godswood) were not safe from them when the feeling arose. Apologies to the servants and guards who stumbled upon them.

M : MOTIVATION

A stressful day at court, which... when is court not stressful? They aren't hopping on each other 24/7, but, if Genavene's not having a great day, and tugs Vaelor back to their chambers, (or, usually, to the base of the stairs because FOR GODS SAKE, she should not have to climb a mountain to get to his, and later their chambers at the Red Keep.) a servant might happen to hear a girly getting fingered or eaten out, or just full-on riding her husband on those stairs. Sometimes, seeing Genavene in one of Vaelor's dresses or nightgowns or etc. that he made for her can get him going... and when that happens? Usually Vaelor ends up on top. I'll leave that thought there. There might be a little possession kink in there, and in the rare instance of Gena liking anything related to possession, this is that.

N : NO

Physical violence is a NO, as well as degrading language. They're neither's cup of tea. Genavene is less inclined to be against degrading language, but she is also heavily opposed to restraints for a long while, up until a certain point. (which will be explored with her and Matthos, eventually - their dynamic in the bedroom is actually really heartwarming. I'll just say there's a suggestion he makes of tying himself up for her, if she's comfortable, they could try it, and... they do, eventually.)

O : ORAL

PLEASE. If Vaelor gets to mutually de-stress with his wife by feasting on her pretty cunt, it is a GOOD day. Personally, he doesn't care for receiving oral on himself, but giving it? There's something that just lights in his brain, maybe it's the way she tugs his hair, or the way her soft thighs grip around his head, or the way she pleads with him to go faster, or harder, or she just starts babbling his name, it is so validating just to please his wife. Gods, he loves that woman. Genavene does not like giving head, she would rather never have her head near a cock. It feels degrading to her. Modern!AU Genavene is a little different... (car sex with Vaelor which oddly heals something in her.) but overall the thought of blowing a guy just makes her feel sick to her stomach.

P : PACE

It depends, mostly on how exhausted both party is, (they - but especially Genavene, seeing it as a duty - tend to drain themselves with the court activities.) but they do lean more on the slow side of things, or are even a little lazy, but no less passionate. They're simply careful with each other. At Vyneheart, or Swan's Neck, where they're allowed a bit more time to themselves, they can get a bit more rough - or Genavene can, and Vaelor can beg for it. Any time Vaelor is eating Gena out could be considered probably the roughest they get with each other.

Q : QUICKIE

Quickies for them are more typical when outside of their chambers, and they have to be a little more secretive about their affairs. I've already mentioned this, but Vaelor LOVES just kneeling before Gena whenever she's sitting on his desk and GOING TO TOWN, but in this circumstance that is specifically before he has to attend the small council, (post-115 AC, when he's acting as an honorary advisor.) sometimes, I even think that she and Vaelor, on the occasion that she attends the small council with him, have probably had a little quickie in the small council's chamber once or twice before anyone else entered the chamber (Vaelor Targaryen likes to be absurdly early for anything.)

R : RISK

They start out as the unmarried eldest daughter of OTTO HIGHTOWER and unmarried youngest brother of VISERYS TARGARYEN, actively conducting an affair. Those two are unintentionally thrill-junkies just for that alone. Now, married Genavaelor and risk? Let's ask the halls of Vyneheart and Swan's Neck if there's a place those two haven't desecrated and been caught (typically at Genavene or Matthos' suggestion - although, if it's concerning Vaelor's workshop, IT WAS HIM. BLAME HIM. That man is unreasonably horny about his wife being into his work, and having her in his work.)

S : STAMINA

HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED THAT MAN'S STAIRCASE? NO. Genavene, unfortunately, has. Vaelor, fortunately, has, for the majority of his life, those have been his chambers in the Red Keep. Those stairs are why he has never missed leg day and why his legs are unreasonably pretty and nice for Genavene to sometimes wrap her own legs around and go to town on dry-humping - okay, stamina, right. Vaelor can actually go for a solid three rounds, if not more, but usually by the time they're coming down from the first, it's late and Genavene's getting sleepy. It's often already pretty late at night when Genavene materializes in his chambers, so, who can blame her for being tired? She doesn't have many good days, and after climbing up all those stairs just to see Vaelor, she's flopping on his comfortable bed like a limp fish and going to sleep. Then, she might wake up, they'll go at it, with Gena finishing at least twice and she's back to dozing. Vaelor's bed is far too warm and comfy, and Vaelor himself is too warm and comfy.

T : TOYS

So... I feel like this is where I yap about the Matthos of it all, because I don't think Vaelor and Genavene really have any toys for each other, they prefer personal physicality, but with Matthos, they aren't always in the same part of the country, so... Matthos might leave a carved marble phallus with them at one point. Maybe, just maybe.

U : UNFAIR

Vaelor can't tease Genavene for shit. Why? He feels too bad, she'll get pouty and it just makes him want to melt into the cobblestones and wither away into nothing. Meanwhile, if Genavene wasn't THE TEASE of Westeros, I wouldn't know who was. That woman even purchases what amounts to medieval lingerie from a guy who makes Vaelor dupes to try and arouse her husband's ire, (Vaelor has no anger towards Gena, he is all clouds and heart eyes always.) does not work. Vaelor criticizes the craftsmanship and tells her that if she wanted something like that, she should've come to him, and so, she does... and this is where we get to Vaelor unintentionally teasing Genavene. This man is completely unaware of what he is doing to her, as he takes her measurements for the who-nows-what-number time at this point, and she just wants him on top of her for once. Sadly, it's Vaelor Targaryen and he gets all the hints yet realizes none, which leads Gena into taking it into her own hands... the it being his dick. FINALLY, our boy realizes what she wants. HOORAY!! And considering how hard she's worked for it, and how thoughtful she was when it came to wanting a beautiful little garment from HIM? You bet she's getting it! She deserves it!

V : VOLUME

Vaelor used to, and occasionally still does bite into his wrist to keep himself quiet - he also once has bitten through his lip... yeah, try explaining to a maester. Mind you, he does not need to keep quiet, and for the most part now, he doesn't. His little tower is high above the majority of the keep, and - well him and Genavene can only assume it's well-insulated for sound. Vaelor babbles about how beautiful she is, and how he doesn't deserve her - which, does get him shut up with a sloppy kiss. Genavene, meanwhile, is moaning, whimpering, whining, literally anything, and Vaelor gets off on her voice throughout all of this. HE LOVES IT. Bringing his girl pleasure is his no. 1 goal, and to hear it? The aftercare is going to be TOOTH-ROTTINGLY SWEET after this. Vaelor's assigned Kingsguard does hate it though once Genavene and Vaelor are married because... those two? They don't have to hide anymore (as if they were, anyway.) IT'S LOUD. AND HE'S HEARING EVERYTHING. (Sorry Erryk... and later Arryk.)

W : WILD CARD

So, uh... they've fucked in the Godswood once - or, they will, eventually. Vaelor has a picnic. I'm going to leave that there. (OG fic Vaelor lost his virginity in the Godswood and I need everyone to know that I am SORROWED that I had to cut that from this version.)

X : X-RAY

I'd have to say that Vaelor's a decent five inches, but he is THICK, girthy, some might say... you have to properly lube that shit. We've yapped about the fact that he has a "sleeper build" before, but to give a little more information, he tends to carry more muscle in his legs and arms from hauling stuff (ahem, bricks - no, I'm not joking. It's my silliest piece of canon.) up the stairs to his chambers, but is a little softer than, say, Matthos, who actively pursues athleticism. He is, what I'd like to call, the perfect pillow. Genavene's a little on the slight side, but nothing willowy. She's on the lighter side of a c-cup, hips that Catelyn Stark would probably consider "good for child-bearing", she has stretch marks, which... if you know, you know, (Vaelor doesn't know. He has no idea what they are, even with how much time he spent around a constantly pregnant Aemma.) and honestly Vaelor does have a little dash of breeding kink so he does go a little feral over it without even realizing what that could mean. She has plush thighs, which may or may not get tossed over a shoulder or two on a special occasion... or regular occasion.

Y : YEARNING

Honestly, I'd say Vaelor's sex-drive isn't that high as a general standard, but Genavene brings out a little something in him. He wants to worship her, because, is she not deserving of that? She is so gracious to him, how could he not return the favor - though, to be fair, even if she wasn't so kind to him, he'd probably still fall to his knees before her and worship the ground she walks on because it's Genavene, and she is everything to him. I also think Genavene starts out... not actually having as much interest in sex as she perceives herself to have, or at least, she doesn't necessarily have sex to just have sex, there's a bit of a psychological challenge to it as well. It's a need to prove to herself that she can, and that it can be to her benefit. Although, how much benefit is there when you aren't actually that interested? *Cough* Jason Lannister *Cough* Genavene is interested with Vaelor, however. Make no mistake of that. She likes to ruffle his sheltered-boy feathers. With him? Her sex-drive might just be a little higher than normal... okay, it's really high. He's a sweetheart who melts if she only looks at him, and he actually manages to find her clit... unlike some other people. *Cough* Jason Lannister *Cough* NOT ONLY THAT, he actually listens to her about how to use his appliances! Who would have thought? (Fun fact! Vaelor is not a coward to admit when he is wrong, he however is a coward to admit when he is right. So, hearing Genavene's pleasure? Fabulous on his confidence.) So, TL;DR for this one : THEY ARE DOWN BAD FOR EACHOTHER (+ Matthos) but other people are honestly shit at keeping them up generally.

Z : ZZZ

CATELYN TULLY ; Born in 303 AC, Catelyn was not named by either of her parents - Ser Leowyn and Lady Adalysa - instead, she was named by Lord Petyr Baelish. While she would marry the heir to Runestone in the same year her half-sister, Sibylla, would wed her Corbray knight, the couple would not have her first child until a year after Sibylla perished in the childbed. Three babes, she would carry. All healthy, two sons and a daughter. She and her husband were never noted as particularly passionate, merely pursuing a duty to its end. Catelyn had liked the idea of marrying into House Royce as it was ancient and, more importantly, respected, unlike how many perceived her father and mother. Her husband would die in 333 AC, leaving her as regent until their son reached his majority. She herself would pass sixty years later, having also served as regent for three of her grandsons throughout her life.

ALERIE TULLY ; Alerie was born in 306 AC, just as the tides began to settle. Named for Lady Adalysa's dearest sister, Alerie Tyrell, though she would not marry so well as her - she would not marry at all. Remarked for her anxiety when taken in conversation, Alerie preferred the quiet of her chambers, or chatter of her sisters, to being thrust upon a suitor who cared only for her hefty dowry. (Everyone say thank you, uncle Edmure!!) She was often caught tinkering away at trinkets that she found lost in Riverrun's corridors - or sometimes gifts from her father that he uncovered while hawking. How things worked, it fascinated her, and taking them apart to understand, fulfilled a certain part of her. It was even better when she could remake things to just as they used to be. She would die in 385 AC, a favorite of her nieces and nephews - especially those of Catelyn's children.

RHEA TULLY ; Rhea was perhaps the favorite of her grandmother, given that she was her namesake. In 310, she would greet the sun for the first time, accompanied by her twin sister, Minisa. The birth of Rhea and Minisa would be the first of Adalysa's children, for which Lady Rhea Florent would be present for the birth, and she was second to hold the little Rhea when she came into the world. Rhea took to her mother in a way unlike her sisters, for she was always at her side, either clasping her hand or being carried. Whenever Catelyn threw a fit, she would bury her face in her mother's skirts and weep until it was over, and at night, when she had terrors she would sneak from her guards into her mother's chamber to find comfort. When her mother died, she and her sisters were brought to say their goodbyes, Lady Rhea would toss herself atop her mother's corpse in a heap of sobs, and her father had to pry her off. Not long after, Lady Rhea Florent would arrive with little Rhea's uncles for the funeral. Soon enough, as her father was overrun by the children, she and her twin would be sent off to be fostered in their grandmother's care at the Hightower. Though she received many letters from Riverrun, she never sent any in return. Lady Melessa Bulwer, who had once been a friend of her mother, would arrange a match between Lady Rhea and her nephew, who also happened to be her heir. They wed in 331 AC, the match having been put off by her lady-grandmother for many years as Lady Rhea Florent had scarce love for the Bulwers. Regardless of it having been arranged for the two, Lady Rhea and Ser Byren proved an endearing couple, always with one hanging off the other's arm. The pair would have twelve children, seven sons and five daughters, some of whom would be fostered with her cousins at Riverrun. She would pass on in 394 AC from old age.

MINISA TULLY ; Minisa was the only child named by and for her father, having been born as a surprise in 310 AC, having followed her sister Rhea by a mere few minutes. Unlike her twin, when she left for the Hightower following the death of her mother, she would write to her father, and she would write diligently, multiple letters a day over a course of nearly fifty years. Every letter Rhea received from Riverrun, Minisa would ensure the person received one from her, instead. It was a simple courtesy, really. Eventually, Rhea received no letters at all. Once her sister married, her husband, Ser Byren, not wanting to keep his beloved separated from her dearest twin, would introduce his good friend, Lord Harlon Costayne, to Lady Minisa, encouraging him to court her. As Ser Byren and Lady Rhea had, Ser Harlon and Lady Minisa would get along quite well, though once married they would not have so many children - only having four to her twin's perfect dozen. Nonetheless, the girls were lifelong companions, dying mere days apart, though Minisa, it is thought, died from a broken heart instead of the curse which had wrought its terror on her sister - time.

LYNESSE TULLY ; Named for her mother's scandalous elder sister, Lynesse was born in 312 AC, and the first thing she ever learned to do with her little life was roll her eyes. So slight was the time that she had existed within, and yet the world had already found a way to leave her entirely unamused. An ugly truth, it was, that her tiny body had known, in both her father and mother. Mother did not love her father, and Father spent too much time finding his love with another woman who had once - or perhaps, still was - her mother's friend. The pair did well to love their daughters, however, Lynesse was one lost to their touch. Lady Adalysa attempted to soften her pressed lips with attention, personally overseeing her daughter's lessons, while Ser Leowyn chased her happiness with dolls of porcelain and rabbits of wool. It all proved naught, she only ever smiled once, that it can be noted, for a family portrait. It came as a shock to her sisters when she wed in 337 AC, all believed she end up a spinster as Alerie had endeavored herself to be, yet, when her uncle introduced her to the son of Lord Patrek Mallister, Martyn, the lady could not merely cast aside the bright turn of her lips. They courted for four years before she agreed to finally take him as her husband, and in the end, they would have as many children as she had sisters, seven. Ser Martyn became Lord Martyn with the death of his father in 345 AC, and duty did not abate his love, not only did he make the solemn woman grin, but he also knew the magic of making her laugh! It is a pity that she would die long before him, in 380 AC from unknown causes.

FLORENCE TULLY ; Young Florence became lost among her parent's numerous daughters, even if she bore the difference of being close to her father in his hair. Born in 315 AC, she was just old enough to have gathered the spirit of her mother, but never the heart when her mother would suddenly die in 319 AC. Stubborn, she was. Though her elder sister never so much as turned her gaze in the direction of the her, she clung to Lynesse like a treasured stuffed pet. For a time following their mother's passing, the girls would share a nursery, and while she would shun the baby from her arms, Lynesse gave no indication of any dislike, though she never gave much indication for anything aside from boredom. Of the sisters, Florence was closest with her aunt, Lady Roslin Frey. The pair liked to rejoice in song - a pretty voice, she had, Lady Florence, perhaps the fairest in the land for her time. Lord Edmure would have that lady with the pretty voice promised to the son of his late friend, Lord Marq Piper, and by the year's end in 334 AC, she would be made Lady of Pinkmaiden. She had four children of her own, while also fostering many of her nieces and nephews - the sons and daughters of her sisters Lynesse and Adalysa. She would die in 401 AC, beloved by the family that she had created for herself.

ADALYSA TULLY ; The youngest of Adalysa and Leowyn's children, having been born in 319 AC. As a result of complications, her mother would pass some time after giving birth, and while many assumed little Adalysa would perish alongside her mother, she persevered. Though she exhibited a frailty of the nature and some peculiarities, she was still capable of securing a valuable match with the help of her grandmother, Alerie Hightower, in 347 AC to the eldest son of Horas Redwyne, Ryam. He was not such a good knight as his namesake, yet whenever he rode along the lists she humored him with her favor anyway, for it always made him smile so sweetly. Together, they would have three children, two sons and a daughter. The trade of her younger son, Elyas, to her sister Florence's care had been a peace offering between them, and a fruitful one it would prove. He would grow from bumbling tourney knight to valiant war hero by the time he was twenty-five. Adalysa would die in 372 AC. In the end, it was a sudden illness that befell her. Thankfully, it took her quick. She was never precisely healthy. merely stubborn. Her husband would not let her leave the world without a celebration, so for seven days and seven nights people feasted, danced, and remembered the loveliest lady who ever came upon the Arbor. At her funeral, her sister, Florence, would serve as the chief mourner.
