Summary: What happens in 194 AC when Beron Stark goes south with three of his sons and his youngest daughter? Daeron makes new friends, accidental marriage in a godswood, Brynden Rivers gets theatened by a child of five, Baelor's one night stand from before his marriage comes back to haunt him and he's not sure if he's enjoying it or not (lies, he is, he really is), and Maekar wants to know how this is all suddenly his problem to deal with.
“See, our dragon is real!”
“Aly, that’s a prince.”
“A dragon prince. I saw him when I slept. He’s real, like the dragon in my dream.”
The girl looks at him, uncaring that everyone is staring and there is laughter, and grabs Daeron’s hand. His face feels warm. Very warm. He looks down at the hand, then at this girl, who is now Aly and not Alysanne, and sees she has big grey eyes that have green in them, and her hair is in a very messy braid because she ran, and he looks at the other boy with green in his hair, and lets out a squeak when she tugs his hand.
“You are Daeron, the dragon prince my dream,” she says loudly, and suddenly Daeron wishes he was in the nursery with Aerion because everyone is looking at them, and he is red, and there is a girl holding his hand.
“But I’m a boy.”
“And you rode a dragon.”
“Aly you-”
“You rode a big dragon and it was the color of your hair and we were on the dragon with you and we flew, it was real, like you are real. I saw it.”
“I don’t-”
“Please, Aly-”
“It was real and you were big and I was big and Wyle was big, and it was fun.”
Daeron is very, very red, and looking at this girl, with very pretty eyes, and then back to his Mama who looks like she is trying not to laugh, his Papa who is staring at the girl with a very funny face, and then back at the girl who is still talking about this dream, and the room is very, very warm.
“You were a wolf! In my dream! You were a wolf!”
Oh. That was him. Yelling. He was not supposed to yell. Princes do not yell at strange girls, even if they are very weird and holding his hand and talking about dreams being real.
Except, his dreams sometimes are real.
~~~
“May Prince Daeron visit Winterfell?”
Uh. What?
“And may he visit the godswood?”
Something in his brain freezes.
“And may he marry me and Wyle?”
What the fuck?
“That’s a naughty word. I’m not allowed to say fuck.”
Did he say that outloud? Maekar turns to Baelor, who now looks like he is going to burst out laughing again, and clearly he said that last bit outloud. Which he normally would not do in front of children that young. Grown men, yes. Little girls of noble birth? No.
His wife would punish him.
And not in the fun way.
Dyanna was scary when angry. And he did not wish to upset his wife by accidentally cursing at a child.
“Shit…”
“That’s also a naughty word. I’m not allowed to say shit too.”
~~~
“Baelor… tell me the fuck you didn’t.”
“... in my defense, I was not yet married. Or officially betrothed…"
“... I need a drink…”
~~~
“Snow.”
“Rivers.”
“Valar Morghulis!”
“... why is the tiny child thrown over your shoulder saying all men must die to me in high valyrian, Snow?”
“No idea, Rivers. Must be going. She has a play date with your princely great-nephews and her companion to get to.”

a little wip for a scene of one of my oc’s Queen Elaine Tully and her husband King Theon Stark. But itll eventually just look like Ned and Catelyn so I might cheat and post them as that instead.
(ik her dress is impractical but I believe in serving 80s dark fantasy diva)
Was re-reading BAD&AHP (which is amazing ❤️) and with recent events In Godspeed Dreamers all I could think was that I don’t think Beron Stark thought any of this would happen when he sent that raven
Beron Stark, Lord of Winterfell, Warden of the North, would like to take this time to remind everyone he married his favorite daughter off to a prince that is entire besotted with her and had the fear of the old gods and his wrath should the worst happen. Prince Daeron is manageable, which he likes; Alysanne has this. His family, on the other hand, have given him more than a few headaches. For starters when they first were in King’s Landing, he knows how all that went down, and it was by the assurances none of the nonsense would be repeated. Monthly letters from his daughter and his beloved brother have made they clear so all trade agreements stand, the North will be happy one of its own is taken care of, and is in a place of honor.
The moment he gets Lonnel’s letter of what went down in Ashford, he’s making plans that if they need to mobilize their banners it will be done. He’s not stupid. Baby dragon? Blackfyres are gonna want that the moment they are aware and Daeron is loved by his daughter so he has to protect him because otherwise Alysanne can and will raise hell. His grandbaby is going to be royalty, ok?
Also, he’s not too please of just what his daughter did to yell at the gods, but fine, if that’s how she’s gonna roll, ok. Is rather please about her behavior for the most beforehand. He raised his children right! See!!!
Beron though hopes Lonnel knows to tone it down with Baelor when in the presence of people who are not family. He’s almost sure but his older brother is a wild one.
