⋆.˚ DAEMON TARGARYEN.
daemon knows when he is right and when he is wrong – even if he seldom admits to the ladder. yet still, when time calls for apologies and your forgiveness, daemon will not so easily provide it. like razors through his throat or barbed wire around his tongue, apologizing is more difficult than taking sixty men head on. but daemon still yearns to comfort you, to ease you without the need for the words “i’m sorry” or “forgive me”. daemon will not show himself apologetic either, he will show nothing to indicate remorse or guilt. instead, daemon will come to you when he can’t stand the guilt in his chest and he’ll first wrap his arms around your waist. whether you melt into him or refuse, you’ll eventually cave when his hand slips up your dress and the other around your throat. daemon does not want to admit his fault, he does not need you to forgive him or pardon him because then that would mean he did do something wrong. all daemon needs, all he does to apologize is to fuck you until you forget of his wrongdoing.
⋆.˚ SER CRISTON COLE.
criston needs love, he yearns and vies for adoration and affection. should criston need to apologize, he will do so. criston will grovel and he will grasp at your dress with tears in his big brown dornish eyes and criston will beg for your forgiveness. but criston will only do such a thing once. criston believes that asking for a pardon, for forgiveness, it is a one time thing. should you deny him, reject him, criston will find any way he can to pin the fault on you entirely. to quell his guilt or to soothe his rejection, criston will grovel and he will beg and cry but should you deny him he will think he’s done all he could to right what was wronged. if you do decide to forgive criston, he litters your face in kisses and ghosts his lips along your palms and up your fingers. criston seldom actually feels a true and real guilt, what drives his apologies, his need for forgiveness is his need for love and validation. for affection.
⋆.˚ AEGON II TARGARYEN.
aegon does not – or rather cannot – apologize in words. not because aegon doesn’t want to, because he doesn’t know how. raised beneath a cold mother and father that hardly deserves the title, aegon doesn’t know how to apologize. all aegon knows is that he cares what you think, he cares about whether or not he is to lose something in his lack of apology. so, aegon uses whatever he can. whether it be his tears in big doe eyes of lilac or anger and threats with the power he wields, aegon will do anything and everything to bring you to him to let bygones be bygones. anything and everything except utter an actual apology. though, that isn’t aegon’s first resort. manipulation and gaslighting isn’t aegon’s first choice, his first is to gift you something. something aegon thinks you may like or something expensive and flamboyant to try and weakly compensate for his sin. if it doesn’t work, aegon will use manipulation like a blade.
⋆.˚ AEMOND TARGARYEN.
aemond’s way of apologizing is entirely dependent on whether he himself believes to be in the wrong. if he believes he’s in the wrong, aemond will apologize to you simply. aemond will simply ask for your forgiveness and if you don’t accept it, he’ll ask for a way to show his apology to you and fulfill it to the best of his capabilities. aemond will usually kiss the corner of your lips or top of your head after taking accountability in his apology. however, if aemond does not believe himself to be in the wrong you will never get a single semblance of an apology. any confrontation and aemond will deflect, he will impose blame on you or call you dramatic or hysteric. if aemond does not think an apology is necessary, than an apology you shall never get. whether you’re angry, sad to tears, or giving him the silent treatment, aemond will never concede. even if it means aemond will live in the chill of your cold shoulder forever. if aemond thinks he did no wrong, then he did not.
⋆.˚ JACAERYS VELARYON.
jacaerys doesn’t think apologies suffice in the mere words of “i’m sorry” or “forgive me”. when you two have a disagreement, an argument – something to bring about the need of apologies then jacaerys will first insist on space. insist you both take air before you come together to talk. then jacaerys will listen to you, your words and feelings before he provides his own. the entire time jacaerys will have a hand on you somewhere. cupping your cheek, holding your hand, resting a hand on your thigh, jacaerys must be touching you throughout the mature conversation. but it won’t always be like that. sometimes jacaerys will lose his patience, he’ll never raise his voice but he’ll storm out and or insist that he isn’t in the wrong but be will reassure you sharply and angrily that him not being wrong doesn’t mean you are. still, jacaerys will return to apologize, he will return cooled and he will murmur an apology forehead to forehead with his hands holding your face. once all is forgiven, jacaerys is more than content to forget the topic. or learn from it.

Pairing: Aegon Targaryen x Fem!Reader
Includes: mentions of past rape, toxic relationship, denial, thoughts of murder
Summary: You visit an unconscious Aegon.
You take in a deep breath before entering Aegon's chambers.
The pit in your stomach grows heavier as your eyes land on him. He lays atop what used to be your shared bed — you've moved into one of the guest chambers unable to be around him for more than a few moments. One of his legs is propped up and bandages cover his entire body.
It isn't until you stand next to his bed that you can see all of his injuries. Whatever burns that aren't covered, horrify you and you must shut your eyes before looking back at your husband.
Your eyes wander up to Aegon's scarred face. He looks strangely peaceful for what has happened to him.
He could die, you realize. The thought doesn't seem real and you aren't sure what to make of it.
If Aegon died... he wouldn't be able to hurt you anymore. He couldn't hold you down during the middle of the night, the taste of wine on his tongue as he forced it past your lips.
But you didn't want Aegon dead! Of course not... He was your husband and King. And at times, he was nice to you.
You take a seat on the chair next to Aegon's bed.
Has anyone else visited Aegon? Not many people liked him, but surely his mother and siblings had.
You stare at Aegon. You think again of how peaceful he looks. These days when Aegon is awake, he's either tired or stressed or both. Perhaps this was a good thing. He can finally rest.
His silver hair is splayed out over his pillow and it would be so easy to just grab it and smother him.
You scoot closer to the bed and gently push a few tiny hairs away from his face, before moving it away and gripping the pillow that rests under him. Your other hand tenderly holds onto his bandage covered arm.
There's nobody else in the room. There are a few guards posted outside of Aegon's chambers, but they'd never know. Nobody would think it was you who did it. Everyone would just think he succumbed to his injuries.
You don't notice when Aegon's lips part just the tiniest bit, until he lets out a whisper of your name.

House of the Dragon Incorrect Quotes
You: Are we fighting or flirting? Aemond: I'm pinning you against a wall with my hand around your neck- You: Your point?
You: I feel like doing something stupid. Aegon: I’m stupid, do me.
You: Crushes are the worst. Whenever I’m near mine, I start acting stupid. Aemond: You always act stupid. Aemond: Aemond: Wait...
Alicent: Did you wash the dishes? Aegon: I thought you wanted to do that... Alicent: *chuckles* You were WRONG.
Aemond: People tell me I have a unique way of lighting up a room. You: It’s called arson and those people are called witnesses.
You: Are you ever going to listen to me? Daemon: Yes. Absolutely. You: When? Daemon: When you're right.
Aegon: We have a problem. Aemond: No, YOU have a problem. I have an idiot who keeps making them.
You: I still have no idea how I’m attracted to you... Daemon: Yeah, well, you’re stuck with me, and no take backs, honey.

House of the Dragon characters with a s/o that hates Targaryens
Warnings: Yandere behavior, violating boundaries, mentions of bullying
Rhaenyra and Daemon Targaryen:
Daemon and Rhaenyra take great pride in their Valyrian roots, so they get considerably annoyed whenever you complain about Targaryens and their traditions (Daemon more so).
Though they understand why, they will still try to get you to fall in love with their Targaryen heritage and traditions.
Rhaenyra and Daemon will take you on dragon rides, read you stories about their ancestors, and Daemon may sing to you in Valyrian. Though Daemon will only get to hum a song to you on days you are considerably more tired and can’t bring yourself to argue with them.
If you still continue to reject them, they’ll just have to take full control of the situation and disregard your wants.
They’ll send a letter to your mother and father, saying that they want your hand in marriage, and what fool would reject such a proposal from the Queen and Prince Consort?
Aegon Targaryen:
Aegon enjoys the luxuries that come with being a Targaryen prince, but he hates a few of the things that come with it; like the expectations, and being forced to marry Helaena.
Many other Lords and Ladies have tried getting on his “good” side because of his status, but not you. You avoid him whenever he is near, and have told him (as nicely as you possibly could) that you’re not a fan of him or his family.
Aegon finds this much too entertaining, and will try to seduce you into forgetting your “vow” of never getting into a relationship with a Targaryen.
Aemond Targaryen:
Aemond is desperate to be accepted by you. Though he is a Targaryen, you have never failed to show him respect even though you are not a fan of his family.
Other people have made fun of him for not claiming a dragon, or for only having one eye, but you haven’t.
Though Aemond won’t give up his full interest in his Targaryen ancestry, he will tone it down when around you, and will hope that would be enough for him to be an exception for your hate for Targaryens.
Aemond can’t change the fact that he's a Targaryen, just like how he can’t change the fact he has one eye, but he hopes you will love him like you would any other man.
A/N: this was requested but I accidently deleted the ask😭😭
House of the Dragon Incorrect Quotes
Aemond: If we don’t get out of this alive… If we’re both about to die… I love you, y/n! *Neither of you die* You: … Aemond: … You: So do you wanna talk about somethi- Aemond: No thank you.
Aegon: Why should I make my bed, when I'm just gonna unmake it to sleep in it anyways? Alicent: Why should I feed you if you're just gonna die anyways? Aegon: Aegon: I'll go make my bed-
You: Aegon won’t wake up, what do I do? Aemond: Did you try kicking him? You: Yes. Aemond: I’m out of ideas.
You: Your Honor, I hereby submit the following to the court: You: Aegon, what the actual FUCK?
Aemond: Y/n, I am nothing if not a man of principle. Aemond: Now let’s break into this apartment.
Daemon: I'm a reverse necromancer. You: Isn't that just killing people? Daemon: Ah, technicality.
Aegon: I was arrested for being too cool. Aemond: The charges were dropped due to a lack of supporting evidence.
You: I want to wake up with you every day for the rest of our lives Aemond: I wake up at 4:30 AM You: You: I want to see you at some point every day for the rest of our lives
Aegon: Change is inedible. Aemond: Don't you mean inevitable? Aegon, spitting out coins: No, I did not.
Aemond: What the fuck is wrong with you?! Aegon: Wow, you could start with a 'good morning'. Aemond: Good morning. What the fuck is wrong with you?!
You: We’re getting married, bitches! Daemon: And we're about to make it everybody else's problem.
Aegon, struggling to keep upright in his 1 inch heels: Yeah, I-I don’t really think heels are for me Rhaenyra, pointing at them and walking flawlessly in sparkly golden 6 inch heels: WEAK.
House of the Dragon characters x Pregnant!Reader
Warnings: mentions of death, mentions of child death, pregnancy, mentions of sex, mentions of threesomes
Daemon has trauma from what happened with his past wife, Laena. He's terrified that you'll die during childbirth, and will have a Maester check up on you every moon.
Daemon loves to gently press his forehead against your stomach, humming a song under his breath as you fall asleep.
He'll pick out a few dragon eggs for you to choose from for your guys' baby.
If there are any complications during the birth, he'll threaten to put the Maester's head on a spike if you don't make it out alive.
He'd rather you survive than the baby. You can always have another baby, but there's only one of you.
It was no surprise that you got pregnant since the both of you were constantly fucking.
b i g b o o b s
His hands and mouth are constantly on your breasts and once you begin lactating it will probably get worse,
Like Daemon, Aegon would choose you over the child if it came to it. You are one of the only things that bring him some version of happiness and he'll be damned if he losses you.
Aemond has thought of being a father before. Of course, since he was the second son, he would need heirs. He had also sworn that he would be a better father to his children than Viserys was to him.
Aemond does get a bit possessive when your pregnant and would prefer to be the one helps you bathe and gives you massages when you complain about back pain.
Though Aemond is usually reserved and shy about his touches, once he finds out your pregnant, he becomes more confident. Something that should of been a simple kiss, would end up with his hands wandering towards your breasts.
Ser Harwin probably got you pregnant during one of the multiple threesomes you have with him and Rhaenyra.
She's over the moon when she finds out your pregnant.
Her hands are constantly on your stomach.
Rhaenyra has a lot of experience when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth. She'll be there for you, listening to your worries and reassuring you.
She'll go throw a list of baby names with you, and you'd land on Aemma and Baelon being one of your top picks.
Buys you long necklaces and new dresses that show off your breasts, and gives you a cheeky smirk when you catch her looking.
How They Mark You
Pairings: Aegon ii Targaryen, Daemon Targaryen, Rhaenyra Targaryen, Aemond Targaryen
Warnings: nsfw, bruises, female reader, mentions of pregnancy
Aegon ii Targaryen:
Aegon leaves marks on your skin. Usually hickies, but sometimes he’ll lightly bite your skin or leave marks that resemble fingers.
Aegon makes it obvious that you’re his.
He is openly affectionate with you in public. And there have been multiple occasions where a servant has walked in on you two being in certain erotic positions.
And though Aegon doesn’t purposefully do this, he usually leaves your clothes ruffled after dragging you away throughout the day to make out with you or more.
Daemon Targaryen:
Daemon gifts you jewelry. He’s given you necklaces, rings, bracelets. He loves to see you wear them.
At times, he’ll reach out to grab them so he can fidget with them.
Loves to leave hickies on you. Especially in places you can’t hide.
Daemon smirks when he hears you complain about how long it’ll take you to cover the marks he left on you.
Rhaenyra Targaryen:
Rhaenyra is more subtle about how she marks you since you’re both women.
Wherever you both go, she makes sure that your arms are interlocked with each other.
Or her hand on your back, gently guiding you to wherever she wants you to go.
Rhaenyra, like Daemon, will buy you jewelry —usually necklaces — to mark you.
Rhaenyra loves to leave hickies on you, though she does so on places that are easier to hide.
Aemond Targaryen:
The way Aemond marks you isn’t in a way that anyone else but you both would know.
Aemond buys dresses for you.
From Dorne, Essos, anywhere you’d like.
Your wardrobe is full of them.
He loves to see the clothing he’s bought cover your body in a way he can’t.
When you’re pregnant, he’s quick to buy you more clothes to fit you.
Jealousy Headcanons
Pairings: Aegon ii Targaryen, Daemon Targaryen, Aemond Targaryen
Warnings: Jealousy (duh) Possessiveness, Insecurity, light nsfw, female reader
Aegon ii Targaryen:
You would never intentionally make Aegon jealous, because of how he acts when he is.
He’s possessive over you, making sure that everyone knows your his.
If another man comes up to you, flirting with you, Aegon takes that as a slight against him.
At first when a man comes up to, flirting, making you laugh, he pouts, jealousy sparking inside of him.
That jealousy quickly turns into anger.
He’s impulsive and may say something rude to the man who’s flirting with you.
Is quick to drag you away from that man, and into a secluded hall or room.
His eyes are a bit teary as he reminds you that you’re his.
Aegon is very much insecure. He knows that there are far better men than him out there and what if one day, you’ve decided that you’ve had enough of him & his problems?
Aegon is pushing you against a wall, and undoing your dress, not caring if anyone else walks — No, he’s hoping that the man who was flirting with you would walk into this scene —
Aegon needs you to reassure him that you’re his and that you won’t leave him.
Daemon Targaryen:
He’s more amused than jealous.
You? Trying to make him jealous?
He’ll watch you from across the room, sipping on a glass of wine.
Smirks when he sees you glance over at him, to make sure he’s watching.
Afterwards Daemon is dragging you off to your shared chambers, teasing you about how you tried to make him jealous.
If you and Daemon aren’t officially together but you both still obviously have feelings for each other, he’s still amused, though there is an insecurity prickling inside of him.
You two aren’t together. What if you decided to run off with another man instead of him?
Afterwards, Daemon drags you to his chambers to remind you and himself that you’re his. And after that, he’ll press his forehead against yours & bask in the moment.
Aemond Targaryen:
Aemond trusts you, but can’t help but feel a bit insecure when he sees another man flirt with you.
Aemond has one eye, and he knows that quite a few women find him unattractive.
Aemond will calmly come up to you & the man who’s flirting with you, to take you away from him.
He’ll deny being jealous if you tease him about it.
But, if the man is aggressive towards you and won't take no for an answer, Aemond will throw a punch.
Hcs about how Aemond and Aegon(separate) would react to the reader running away and getting pretty far from Kings Landing? I really love your works btw.
Aemond and Aegon ii Targaryen’s reaction to You running away
Warnings: spoilers, possessiveness, murder
Word count: 1.3k
Aegon ii Targaryen:
Being a seamstress’s daughter, you helped your mother create dresses for Princess Rhaenyra and Queen Alicent.
Your mother had been young when you both moved to King's Landing, having just given birth to you. She’d been close to Princess Rhaenyra, having conversations with each other when she was taking the Princess’s measurements.
As you got older, you helped your mother make dresses for the royal family.
When Rhaenyra moved to Driftmark with the rest of her family, you both were stuck making clothing for Queen Alicent and at times, the other royals.
Prince Aegon & you hadn’t met until it was around the time of his nameday.
Queen Alicent had chosen you and your mother to create a suit for Aegon, for him to wear on his nameday celebration.
Your mother put you on the job of taking the prince’s measurements.
Though Aegon was a bit drunk, he still found it in himself to flirt with you. You, of course, had politely tried to shut down Aegon’s advances, but you soon found yourself taken with him.
Your affair had begun from then on.
When King Viserys died, Aemond found Aegon in your bedroom, begging you to run away with him.
After Aegon was crowned king, your mother had forced you to quickly pack a bag with the items you needed before leaving the castle, saying she wouldn’t support and usurper as a king.
Hours after you left, Aegon had come to visit you.
Your door was open, which hadn’t alarmed Aegon until he walked into your room.
It was a mess.
Clothes were strewn on the floor, various fabrics and sewing supplies were left on chairs or tables.
The drunk prince sobered up when he realized quite a few of your personal items were missing.
Aegon called for his guards to go looking for you as he went to Alicent’s chambers.
When Aegon realized that you were missing, his mind jumped to two possibilities. One, that you had been taken as hostage by the blacks, since Aegon had never been quiet about his relationship with you. Or two, that his mother had something to do with you leaving.
Alicent had tried talking to Aegon before about ending his affair with you. Calling the relationship a disgrace and asking if he had no respect for his sister-wife. Saying that she was using him for his wealth.
Aegon had argued against her and in the end didn’t end his affair with you.
Now, Aegon thought that she may have paid you off to leave King's Landing.
Once he had gotten to her chambers, it was clear to Alicent that something was wrong with Aegon. His cheeks were red and he looked to be in a rush.
When Aegon asked if she had anything to do with your disappearance, she denied it, but said it was good that you were gone. That you would have been nothing but trouble.
Aegon believed her, though defended you when she insulted you.
Over the next couple of days Aegon had been drinking more since your disappearance. When you were still here, he would help him with his drinking problems, but now that you were gone, he had fallen back into his hole of depression.
Since you were gone, Aegon found himself missing you more and more. He got out of bed and walked —or more like stumbled —to your room.
Guards followed him. There were more of them since the war between the blacks and the greens.
He lay down on your bed and breathed it in. It still smelt like you.
Aegon was about to cry over you, when he noticed a small paper half covered by one of the pillows on your bed.
He grabbed it and read through it.
The letter was written in an obvious hurry, the writing messy & jumbled.
In the letter it said that your mother was making you leave King’s Landing in support of his half sister Rhaenyra. And — perhaps stupidly— you wrote that your mother was taking you to Essos.
He clenched the note in his hand. This meant you didn’t actually want to leave him right?
He felt anger towards your mother. She was the one who took you away from him
Aegon decided that he was going to get you back. It wasn’t going to be up for debate.
Aemond Targaryen:
Before the war with the Greens and the Blacks, your father had taken you to King’s Landing to meet Aemond Targaryen.
King Viserys had sent a letter, hoping that he would agree to betroth you to Aemond.
Your father, of course, had jumped at the chance to accept.
To marry a Targaryen would be an honor, he had told you.
You had found yourself upset that you would be forced to marry, but he convinced you to stay on your best behavior.
A celebration was thrown for you & your father.
Your house was quite respectable and wealthy, as you were known for your silk.
You met Aemond at the dinner party, and were surprised by how respectable he was. And you weren't going to lie, he was nice to look at.
You had heard stories about how unattractive the prince was, but you disagreed.
And as much as you didn’t want to admit it, you felt your cheeks heat up when the prince kissed your hand.
During the whole celebration, Aemond was respectful and seemed kind. And you thought that you both seemed to get along just fine.
There was no doubt in your head that you were going to get betrothed after that night.
For the rest of the time you were to spend in King’s Landing, Aemond had courted you.
You both would have tea together while being supervised, and spend time in the library.
Aemond was intelligent. That much was obvious.
You would watch as he trained using his sword & Aemond himself found that he was taken by you.
You didn’t shy away from his gaze like the other ladies-in-court have.
You were intelligent yourself & were eager for him to teach you High Valyrian.
You both got married not long after.
Once the war Between The Blacks & The Greens had begun, you had begun to worry quite a bit over Aemond.
The war had truly begun when Aemond had killed Lucerys Velaryon.
He had claimed it was an accident, while Alicent & Otto had reprimanded him.
Though conflicted, you had decided to believe Aemond when he said it was an accident.
Later on into the war, Aemond was sent to retake Harrenhal.
Once word got back to you that Aemond had ordered the executions of The Strongs, you felt disgusted.
He ordered the death of innocent women & children.
You began to question if the murder of Lucerys was truly an accident.
The more you thought about Aemond, the more you were disgusted by him.
War had changed him. Or had he always been like that?
You decided you were going to leave. You couldn’t share a bed with a man who didn’t think twice about ordering the deaths of children.
It wasn’t as difficult as one would think to leave the castle.
Aemond had taught you about the hidden passages & the layout of them.
You packed a bag and stuffed a pouch with as much gold and diamonds that would fit in it. You put on some of your valuable jewelry as well, in case of an emergency and you need to sell them.
You put on a cloak and grabbed your bag and left, taking a ship to Dorne.
Once Aemond had heard about your disappearance, he returned to King’s Landing as fast as he could, putting Ser Criston Cole in charge of Harrenhal.
Once he had returned to King’s Landing, he hurried to your shared chambers to make sure that what he had heard was true. And it was. You wear no longer in your chambers.
Had someone snuck into the castle and taken you hostage? It was possible.
He soon noticed that some of your jewelry and dresses were gone.
Had you left? To go where? It wouldn’t be to visit your parents. You were far too smart for that.
Aemond Targaryen’s wife was missing and he was going to find you.
And once he does, he was going to make sure you weren’t going to leave him again.
“The grief and rage of losing a child could burn down the world”
