Summary
“Your whole war, based on a bedtime story. You usurp my throne without the slightest idea what it means.” Rhaenyra’s words are vicious, but her tone is soft. She’d been so soft-spoken in the sept. Though there was a knife in her hand there had almost been a gentleness to the way she held Alicent’s wrist, dressed in the drab garb of the septas and still so striking. It’s a wonder nobody recognized her from sheer magnetism alone.
“I did what I thought was best for the realm.”
The blade kisses Alicent’s neck. She can feel the pain in a detached, dreamlike way, the shallow slice of a sharpened edge across the vulnerable skin of her throat.
“Liar,” Rhaenyra whispers.
OR
Alicent is haunted by so many things, her own decisions chief among them. Why not add Rhaenyra’s visit in the sept?

Summary
There’s nothing worse, she thinks, than no one knowing your name. Than walking into a crowd of people and finding only blank faces there. She wants hearts to race when she enters a room, palms to sweat and stomachs to churn. She wants to be enigmatic, frightening. She wants to be inevitable.
A character study in Villanelle.

Summary
I don’t know how to explain this to her, SecUnit tells me, and dumps a massive metadata file at me. I’m not sure what it expects me to do to help until I open the file. It’s comprised entirely of tagged interactions between SecUnit and Dr. Mensah.
This log is deeply personal, and I take great care with it as I move through the data. There’s the first time Mensah spoke to SecUnit directly, the way she made it feel like a person for the first time; there’s a moment on a shuttle where Mensah’s looking up at it, unafraid of its rage; there’s an office, people strew on the floor and a deep relief as Mensah meets SecUnit’s gaze; there’s a hundred little moments, flashes of interactions saved in a permanent archive filled with mutual respect, gratitude, care. I think of earlier, when I wanted to share with SecUnit what my love for my family feels like, but I realize know that it already knows.
Or,
ART and Murderbot learn some new emotions.
