Summary
“What, exactly, do you intend to do with those children?” The clear voice cut through the crowd.
Wearing half a mountain’s worth of dirt and a patchy beard, the stranger reminded Six Balls of the Undead Bearded Bandit from pa’s bedtime stories. His hair fell in tangles to his waist, and bare, blackened feet poked out under the dirt-crusted robes.
He looked… He looked like a real hero who’d just rolled out of a fresh grave. The coolest, scariest kind of hero was the fresh-out-of-a-grave kind, in Six Balls’s opinion; that was when they were about to wreck the bloodiest vengeance on anything standing in their path.
“Children?!” yelled one of the stupider humans, who clearly didn’t know the best way to talk to an undead hero. (Don’t, if you can help it.) “These demons slaughtered six good men!”
Or: When Shen Qingqiu wakes up in his new plant body exactly one day later than he does in canon, it throws the plot in a whole new direction.

A Spark to an Inferno, a Snowball to an Avalanche by cjr2
Fandoms: A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin, Game of Thrones (TV)

Summary
The movement of one tiny piece gives Robb Stark the chance to play the Game of Thrones properly, marry his Frey girl, and take back the North. His path takes him straight through the Neck and past Howland Reed, whose secret may be the key to winning the game.
Or, alternatively, Ned Stark can’t restrain himself from banging his wife while she’s in King’s Landing and inadvertently saves his son (though not himself) from his own stupidity.

To Shift a Sail by Pixelfun20

Summary
Lysa’s letter never makes it to Winterfell.
In its absence, King Robert still looks to renew the spark of friendship he once had with Eddard Stark, but when Ned turns down the offer to be Hand, his attention shifts to his namesake and Ned’s eldest son instead. Thus, Robb goes south in the place of his father, down into the lion’s den that is King’s Landing, almost entirely alone. Meanwhile, Jon finds that having the name Snow can be useful, Arya takes control of her own life, and through it all Ned desperately tries to keep his family safe.

The Songs and the Stories, the Lies and the Glories by leupagus for FlowersfortheMoon

Summary
"The crown suits you, you know," said Ser Duncan over the cacophony, bringing Baelor back to himself. "Makes you look... you know. Kingly. Which I suppose makes sense, seeing as how you're the king now." A look of anguish crossed his face. "Oh, hells, I shouldn't be calling you 'you,' should I? It's 'Your Grace.' Please don't take—"
Baelor resisted the urge to rest his hand against the lad's back, as one might soothe a skittish horse. "No offense was taken, ser."
"Thank you," Ser Duncan said, then immediately amended, "thank Your Grace...ness. Seven fucks, I'm getting another drink." And he whirled away into the throng before Baelor could say a word.

Summary
“My king,” The knight lowered himself to his knees, hands trembling and white cloak pooling at his feet. He looked nervously around the room and spoke in little more than a whisper. “There’s… something in the dungeon.”
In which a child's wish and a whisper of blood-magic inadvertently resurrects a disgraced queen and her golden dragon beneath the Red Keep. [Baelor/Rhaenyra]
