Wheel of Time Recs!
Jan. 2nd, 2022 02:09 pmI collected some of my favorite Wheel of Time fics that had been posted after episode 1x04 here and now that the whole season has aired, I'm posting some more!
I have not read the books, so I did not include any fics that required book knowledge to enjoy. There are spoilers ahead for season 1 of the show.

An unexpected encounter on the road, a moment of weakness far from Tar Valon, and Moiraine is forced to confront the depths of her longing for Siuan.
Pre-canon angst.

For the first time in nearly two years, Moiraine dreams.
In her dream, there is a river, and a house. A wooden cottage that glows golden in the bright light of the sun, attached to a small, rustic pier stretching into white water weaves, flowing threads within the river, amid rocks crowned with verdant moss. Moiraine is certain she has never been there, but somehow, the place has an odd familiarity to it.
Episode 1x06. Beautiful and wistful.

It was no wonder, Lan thought, that Nynaeve was such a capable channeler. She had been crafting weaves with her hair for years before she knew she had the spark.
A fluffy bit of future-fic.

Moiraine, knowing they have time, sends Lan to Nynaeve and reaps the reward with him.
Masterbation, voyerism.

He’d been waiting approximately eighteen hours for Mat to apologize but he still hadn’t, so even though Mat had been in the wrong, Rand finally acknowledged it was up to him to make peace.
But he wasn’t sure why his peace offering ended up being, “Dana thought we were a couple.”
A dash of fake relationship. I love these two morons.

“Mat! Mat!” Rand yelled, but it was too late. The open field was gone. Mat was gone. The only thing before him now was rocky darkness.

"This wasn't the Last Battle," Moiraine confessed. She had miscalculated somewhere, misread the evidence she had so carefully compiled over the last twenty years. "I fear it was the first."

Rand, not rated, 1.9k words
Rand wanders off into the Blight after his fight against the Dark One, no plan in mind but to let everyone think he's dead. To let them be free of his now tainted touch.
Post 1x08, Rand is having a very bad time.

Later, neither one of them could say for sure who had kissed on the lips first. But after some soft hesitance, they slid closer together and kissed slowly, softly, searchingly. Lan cradled Moiraine’s head in his hands, and she wrapped her arms around him, drawing him close.
Episode 1x05. First time.
