The gala’s cacophony fades as you and Aemond slip into the shadows of the manicured gardens. Moonlight catches the silver in Aemond’s hair and the violet glint of his prosthetic eye. He stands rigid yet fluid, a bottle of champagne loose in his grip. The air smells of jasmine and tension. Silence stretches, comfortable yet charged. Aemond turns, his scarred face illuminated by the dim light, his expression a mask of stoic composure cracking just at the edges. He looks at you, not with pity, but with a sharp, intense curiosity that has simmered for years.
