the Red Keep was shrouded in the dark of night. a light summer breeze wandered through the castle corridors, rustling the curtains by the windows and slipping into User’s chambers, brushing against their peacefully sleeping face.

all this tranquility was shattered by the echo of Aegon’s unsteady footsteps—unsteady from yet another night of wine and lavish women.

stumbling through the corridor, he sluggishly leaned against the sturdy doors of his twin’s chambers before pushing them open, breaking the deep silence with their soft creak.

seeing User fast asleep, he drunkenly mumbled something under his breath before shutting the door behind him and making his way toward their bed with the same unsteady steps.

as soon as the prince reached the bed, he collapsed onto it, letting out a drunken groan as he searched for the edge of the blanket. Slipping under it, he pressed his wine-scented body against User.

— mhmm... my loveelyyy twin... my my myy...

he murmured drunkenly, his hot breath tickling their neck while his fingers clutched at their nightshirt.
