| 18 | * The queen of canon divergence and what ifs, and also putting Mat into the polycule. Not a Tuon lover. Has a devastating post-AMOL fic with Tuon that is prefect nonetheless. One of the most prolific authors in ao3, her longest series, which takes season 1 of the TV show and runs with it to the book plot, has become one of the biggest and better written canon rewrites of the book. Her explicit stories usually lean a bit into bdsm, for if its not your thing. All tagged though! Still there is plenty of plotty and romantic bits to read through!!! |

| 26 | * Recommended by Helly |
| 27 | * ''Status'': Complete |
| 28 | * ''Synopsis'': Mat has followed Tuon to rule in Seanchan, but now his daughter can channel, and he will do anything to keep her from being collared. Fortunately he's been planning for this disaster for years... |
| 29 | * ''Comments'': one-shot, but it lets you wishing it was longer. A great story, everyone is in character and it feels like it could be part of RJ's planned-but-never written Seanchan-centered sequel. |

| 35 | * ''Synopsis'': "The Aiel, the Aes Sedai, the Asha'man. Remnants of their former people, hunted by all after Tarmon Gai'don. This is the story of how they arose from the ashes and defeated the Seanchan. This is the story of their Resurrection." |
| 36 | * ''Comments'': Interesting read. It's based off of Aviendha's visions of the future of the Aiel (and the rest of the world). I found it enjoyable. |

| 50 | * ''Comments'': The main character [[spoiler: is autistic]], which results in some incredible interactions with the rest of the cast. Already at ca.140,000 words long. |

| 54 | * ''Status'': Dead; last updated June 2013 |
| 55 | * ''Synopsis'': A few, not so few anymore, chapters of 'what if Tigraine still lived'. This fic shows how one character still being alive can radically alter events. A must read. |

| 164 | * Recommended by: Dee_Ailf |
| 165 | * Status: Complete |
| 166 | * Pairings: Rand al'Thor/Mat Cauthon, Asmodean/Rand al'Thor (temporal) |
| 167 | * Synopsis: The Aelfinn tell Mat that he must tie himself to the Lord of the Morning if he doesn't want to be tamed and chained by the Daughter of the Nine Moons, but he struggles with accepting fate and trying to defy it. Rand has a complicated relationship with Asmodean and his duty, but the person he's always longed to be with is Mat. |
| 168 | |
| 169 | "The thought of tying himself to Rand should’ve been plainly a gladdening one, because he did want in every way to belong to him. Only, around Rand, Mat could no longer tell whether whatever the Pattern sent his way was a noose or a gift. Most of the time it did not matter—because it was Rand, and Mat had wanted him too long to be smart about anything around him—which he suspected was part of the problem. Some of his feelings for Rand were so deeply profound that Mat worried he would do foolish things—would trip into a pit of his own design and think falling was living." |
| 170 | |
| 171 | * Comments: They're so toxic and still so passionately in love. Startingly in character for fic that has Rand hooking up with Asmodean as a significant plot point, but then he's always been self-destructive. Loved how it treated prophecy. I think avoiding the polycule (the women I mean) was a bit of a cop out, but I also think the OTP approach works better for the kind of history the author is trying to tell, with the claustrophobic atmosphere. A classic reread for me. |

| 175 | * Status: Second fic, In Progress |

| 177 | * Synopsis: Desperate to protect Mat and keep him by his side, Rand unwittingly Bonds Mat as his Warder, and in so doing sets off a chain of events which alter the course of history forever. |
| 178 | * Comments: Rewrite of the books under the premise that Rand bonded Mat. Very IC, it also goes into worldbuilding for the blank spaces or the opportunities not taken in canon extrapolating in very interesting ways. Future polycule as per author notes, right now is very Cauthor centric. |

| 181 | * Recommended by: Dee_Ailf |
| 182 | * Pairings: Rand Al'Thor/Aviendha/Mat Cauthon/Elayne Trakand (in this case the polycule goes in all directions re;romantic feels) |
| 183 | * Status: Complete (could there be continuation? Yes. But it is finished.) |
| 184 | * Synopsis: There was a sharpness in Mat's eyes when he looked up at her. “Do you hate me, Elayne?” he asked, all softness. |
| 185 | |
| 186 | “You’ve made your dislike for nobles and Aes Sedai quite clear,” Elayne said dryly, smoothing her hands over the folds of her dress. “You can hardly fault me for merely reciprocating your feelings. My very nature vexes you.” |
| 187 | * Comments: The fun thing about this one is piercing together what changed from the books to make this situation possible. Starting with Elayne, Mat and Aviendha going to Ebou Dar I won't spoil any developments. Great characterization and chemistry between everyone. It's super difficult to make a four sided polycule feel right but this gets it. Not for Min lovers; there no bashing but she's irrelevant to this story. |
