okay, so! the idea i said i needed to run by you? i spent hours doing these edits to explain it better adsgsjd
so i was thinking about modern abo jaceluke (it doesn't have to be tied to any of the aus we've talked about, but it surely can fit somewhere there!) and I thought "to what means would rhaenyra go to stop jacaerys and lucerys' relationship?"
and then i thought that pretty much like in canon, the one to see rhaenyra despairing over something and take a rash decision and fuck it even worse would be daemon. so daemon sees rhaenyra arguing with jaacerys constantly about lucerys and decides to step in. he contacts lady misery, a past lover and the chief redactor of the most notorious gossip twitter and instagram diary, silk diaries, and asks her to post the compromising pictures she must have of jacaerys from his many escapades to the north and make it look like it's happening as of now. for a price, lady misery complies and releases the pictures from a year ago and makes it look like it's happening right now.
jace, who didn't even tell cregan about his drunken make out session with his sister doesn't have any proof to defend himself, and knows his relationship with lucerys is in real danger. that's probably why he sounds so desperate to contact lucerys, because he knows his younger brother is really insecure and that he's been fed lies about jace's hookups by their parents and aemond (who wants to see them break up so bad). it doesn't help the fact that jace knows lucerys knows how many people jace has fucked over the years and that it can probably make sense in lucerys' mind.
lucerys knows his brother and deep in his heart knows that he wouldn't hurt him like that, so jace has to be telling the truth. however, because he's still insecure and hurt, and because lucerys is a little, revengeful shit, and cannot cope with jacaerys thinking he's a child, he hits right where it hurts jace the most ;)
jace comes home the next day and they have angry sex. like, super angry sex. because lucerys is angry at jace for sleeping with girls before him (*rolls eyes*) and jace is so fucking mad lucerys made him fucking grovel and sound "pathetic" over text and cannot stand the idea of lucerys running to aemond (like, that makes him rabid). so they fuck like beasts for hours and hours, break the bed and probably end up with lucerys knocked up 🫢 this all came because i wanted to picture them having hate sex/angry sex without them actually hating each other...
My brilliant talented baby!!!
These edits are insanely well done 🤩. I am in awe. It’s such a great story telling medium.
It’s so funny you went with the supposed cheating angle, because as I was thinking of the modern AU featuring the twins, I had the same thought, wondering what pushed Luke into Aemond’s arms and away from Jace. My mind, much like yours, landed on suspected/fabricated cheating.
Their texts are exactly the kind of argument I’d imagine they would have, particularly with Jace being so desperate to know Luke is okay. Only for the utter heartbreak of seeing him flaunting about with Aemond to sink in like a knife to the heart.
Much like you I think Jace would be rabid upon his return. I think Luke might play really hard to get, might even put up some protests, physically or otherwise.
(Potentially even bordering on some super undernegotiated CNC 🫣)
They’re a mess of bite marks and tears and torn skin and bloodied nails when the deed is done, and Lucerys had made a mantra of the words “I hate you”, yet as they lay on the aftermath (not afterglow - it looks like a fucking crime scene) he mutters, “I hate you…for leaving me.”
Jace, the king of aftercare, would leave once more, albeit briefly, to gather supplies to clean them both up. As he’s wiping Luke down with a warm, damp rag, he’d murmur, “So do I, baby.”
Luke hates the idea of them being on poor terms though, he literally cries over it and Jace hushes him with numerous, tender kisses.
“I know you’d never cheat, I know it,” Luke would babble, clinging to his brother’s shoulders.
“It’s just seeing those pictures, J, it was like something came over me-“
His brother kisses him again, softer, smiling. Grazes the back of his knuckles against the bruised state of his brother’s hips.
“I know the feeling.”

Personal headcanon
I think Alice's dad compare him to the point he doesn't believe he have his own identity except for being Reko's older brother. Just my headcanon but i think Alice have interest he really love and talented at but embarrassed to show it to others, Alice's father at first accepted this, that untill Reko's talent was discovered and used by their father.
Seeing Reko's talent can create money, their father exploits his own daughter for his benefits and because of that, their father sees Reko being more valuable than her elder sibling and probably shames Alice for "wasting time doing useless things" And compares him to Reko, to add salt to the wound, their father probably tells him "the only way you can be useful is to make your sister shines brighter" Over and over and over to the point he gives his life up to Reko.
That or he just have really bad self esteem and compares himself to his sister untill he gives his life up to Reko.
