Summary
“It had been six days since Ormund Hightower had married a highborn lady from the Riverlands, but instead of celebrating with her and cherishing the new life that was ahead of him, he roamed the halls and lingered by the training grounds, challenging every man who crossed them to petty duels in which he, inevitably, would win.”
…or…
Gwayne and Ormund grow up together in Oldtown. Feelings develop and fester, spiralling like nightmares around them.

Summary
“I followed you because watching this has simply become unbearable,” Ormund finally forced out. “That is why.”
“Watching what, exactly?”
“Watching you let just anyone touch you,” Ormund finally forced out in a low voice, his gaze darting away just as restlessly. “Watching how easily you give those smiles away to everyone, as though they cost you nothing. As though you yourself”—he placed a slightly sharper emphasis on the last word—“are worth nothing.”
“So you would have preferred it if I saved all of this for just one person?” Gwayne’s old boldness returned to his voice, though it was thinner now, more cautious. His eyes narrowed, clearly intent on making Ormund just as uncomfortable.
He had hoped to back Gwayne into a corner, but, foolishly, he had failed to consider that he could just as easily find himself trapped there with him.
~
OR a story where after years of secret longing, Ormund catches Gwayne flirting with one of the knights, finally loses his mind, and confesses his feelings to Gwayne.

Throwing the Fight by EvilPeaches

Summary
He's better than Ormund at many things, always has been. Dueling (not grappling, never grappling), riding (but not hunting), humility over pride.
Over the many years, he's learned that throwing the fight has a better outcome than beating his lordly cousin in any competition.
Ormund is the Head of Hightower House, after all. Sometimes the knee must be bent.
------------------------------------
"He was awful to you, earlier." Daeron looked distinctly uncomfortable as they sat together in what now passed for Gwayne's room in Tumbleton, a chess board between them. His nephew was wringing his hands as though they were wet rags and Daeron a washerwoman. "Those things he said..."{The false empathic look, paired with 'I'm sure you found solace with some of your brothers in arms'}
Gwayne stared at the floor, counting the cracks he found there. "Put it from your mind, Daeron. It was meant to humiliate me, not you. Long has he missed throwing his knives at me, in my absence. That is all that was. His idea of fun. A warm welcome home, if you will."
