    Summary

    "This," the knight said, "is Thunder. That one, Chestnut. The white is Sweetfoot. You'll care for them once you're well."

    "Care for them?"

    "Brush them." The knight spat again. "Feed them, water them. Clean their shit, if we're someplace fancy. Keep that one from mounting Sweetfoot. Can't afford another bloody horse." He looked Dunk up and down. "Most like can't afford you."

    Summary

    “What the fuck are you doing here?”

    Dunk shoots up, hitting his knees against the wooden table and the cooks going rigidly against the wall. It’s late. Incredibly so. The moon hanging high up in the air and the whole castle silent except for the owls and guards walking.

    “M'lord,” he stammers and catches himself.

    Maekar regards him with an almost acidic annoyance, but there’s tiredness too. One which Dunk has known from a full day’s ride on horseback. “I’ll ask again, why in seven hells are you here?” He looks around his sides and Dunk quickly answers.

    From time to time, Ser Duncan returns - he brings back home a son and slowly, eventually, he also is returning something else belonging to the same prince.

    Or in other words, Dunk finds a place in Summerhall and Maekar finds his heart again.

    Summary

    His father's face stares back at him, his mother's softness, those Dornish features the court questions and brings up whenever they aim to hurt him. Not the right son. Not the right heir. Not the right King. Never right. Always wrong.

    Or the one where Valarr hates Duncan for being everything he cannot be, and fucks him about it.

    Summary

    They have thrown the man into the patch of light. He wears dark clothes. Plain. No rings. He has a beard, dark hair. He is in pain, eyes shut tight with it. He's beautiful, or maybe it's been too long since Dunk saw another human who wasn't about to punch him for him to judge beauty properly. Dunk crouches down, touches his shoulder gently. He'd ask if the man was alright, but he isn't.

    “My name's Dunk,” he says quietly instead, still touching the man. “There's a loose stone, three up from the ground, and there's a rat that's good to talk to. Sorry you're here.”

    When Ser Arlan fights for the Crown at Starpike Castle, his squire, Dunk, manages to get himself thrown in a cell by Lord Peake's men. He might have lost track of the days, but he knows one thing: his cellmate is worth protecting with everything he has.

    Summary

    "You fought well," Baelor says, extending his hand, and Dunk takes it gratefully. It feels like an anchor, gives him something to focus on besides all the pain brimming up in his body.
