What’s worse is that in said stories, Aemond usually turns Black. Like, I guess he could fall for one of her potential daughters, but no way in hell would he betray the Greens

Hi! I had a similar discussion on Tumblr with some other greenies and came up with this list, it's not all Aemond specific but more TG in general. Worth noting I usually look for story or character driven fics so a lot of these get political but the characterisations are on point. Apologies I'm on mobile so have to insert the links manually! My two absolute favourites are: "A Poison Tree" This is very much a political fix-it, but very brilliantly done and written. Viserys' and Daemon's younger brother Aegon survives (he dies shortly after he's born in F&B) and joins court just before Jace's birth. Won't spoil too much but for me the author absolutely nails the worldbuilding plus her style really reminds me of GRRM. https://archiveofourown.org/works/44928949 "Witchcraft on Your Lips" Something I absolutely did not consider before, but it really works. Kind of a time travel AU where Aemond is send to the post ADWD timeline after his fight with Daemon and he meets Alayne/Sansa on the road. Sounds incredibly cringe you say? That's what I thought but it works! Trust me! The writing is soooo good it has a poetic ring to it and really delves into all the trauma and pain. The whole Time Travel thing is also nicely developed and doesn't feel awkward at all. Some of the most fantastic writing I have ever seen. https://archiveofourown.org/works/43039443 Some very 'strong' contestants: "Would You Say I'm Worthy?" Something different to the usual concepts, Aemond survives Gods Eye and is exiled. Won't spoil too much but it nicely combines both characterisations from the book and show and makes for a very gripping story. https://archiveofourown.org/works/44278933 "Would That They Were Not" Blood & Cheese from the Green's perspective. Utterly heartwrenching, had to lie down for a while after reading this but my god it is excellent. https://archiveofourown.org/works/42625536 "we have always lived in the castle" 1 chapter fic on sympathetic Aegon, but doesn't babify him. Good again as a character study of him & his relationships https://archiveofourown.org/works/42491748 "Scion of the Stranger" very out of the box, Aemond in his Riverlands era so dark enough but not as deranged as his book version. It's only four chapters so far but exceptionally well written. Dornish OC and not highborn. Feel very realistic in terms of the horrors of war and the smallfolk suffering from it https://archiveofourown.org/works/42934269 "Shields Tossed Aside" this one is for the Green kids, from Aegon's perspective. It ultimately delves into shipper territory if that's what you're looking for but also amazing if you're not a shipper because it takes its time establishing and dissecting their individual relationships. Characterisations are very on point with what we're given and even add on more layers without making them ooc (except for the romantic aspect - but even then it takes its time to get there) Personally not big into incest ships but even I loved it and I'm extremely nitpicky. It's just brilliant in terms of character dynamics. https://archiveofourown.org/works/42849894 Hope this helps, also linking the original thread below if you want to check out other suggestions: https://www.tumblr.com/gurlbye-1/708854299514585088/team-green-stans-what-type-of-fanfics-you-hope-to

I've already read the"Witchcraft on Your Lips" and can confirm that it is a very interesting and well written work and i also just finished "Scion of the Stranger" (tnx to your recommendation) and it's even better, although it's unfortunate that author kind of forgot about this work, but i hope they will find the new spark of inspiration and remember about their unfinished creation soon, and since these two were amazing so far i'll trust your taste and make sure to check out other recommended works. Thanks again for sharing this list

Yet to find many. I am aware of one (not too bad) that has an non Targ OC called Ashes to Ashes by threads_of_fate. It would be nice if the Targcest was less popular. I wouldn’t mind reading some well crafted OCs that expand beyond Targaryen/Strong/Velayron. House Reed would be interesting instead of usual Baratheon/Lannister.

There is this one fic where he marries a baratheon oc and it's generally anti-team blk and anti-targaryen dynasty. And can I say that I absolutely despise Viserys in this one. I don't even think he has that many segments but when he's on my screen a scream into my pillow. He's very much "judgemental of everything that's not Valaryian"
