Important Update: I am experiencing major health issues (and I have been the entire month of October so far), so I may be unable to continue with the Whumptober posts. I have most of my Whumptober fics in rough draft form, so I will try to keep posting, but I really don't know if I'll feel up to it. Even a short post every day is a lot.

Cassandra Baratheon is descended from the Storm Kings. Valyrian blood runs in her veins. She is the heir presumptive to Storm’s End. It is only right that she marries a Targaryen prince.

I'm glad you mentioned this, because I am also excited to write about the dynamic. So far we've seen Jace & Alicent's relationship, which is about as good as a daughter/mother-in-law relationship can be.

Luce & Alicent are obviously not going to have the same kind of relationship, though. Alicent was probably hoping for all three of her future daughters-in-law to be close to the Westerosi ideal of a lady, but Luce (and Joff, eventually) doesn't fall into that mold. It also doesn't help that Luce probably reminds Alicent of young Rhaenyra, which gives Alicent a lot of ~feelings~.

There's also the fact that Alicent was present to witness Aemond's breakdown after the Letter. Not the same as Luce physically slashing out Aemond's eye like in canon, but Alicent can't possibly have nice feelings or memories about that event.

As for modern day…we'll see what happens in A Very Hullmark Yule! And I eventually want to write a few spinoffs for Love Actually, so we may get to see some Luce & Alicent interactions there too.

Lucifer grunted. More people to deal with? Wonderful, just wonderful. The already irritable Devil turned to the source that had bumped into her, pale features stern as ever as a small growl erupted in her throat. "You're excused."
