(A/N: I know the houseshare idea is completely unoriginal, but I wanted to
write something frivolous. Sorry.)

Nyneave al'Meara woke up with a gigantic headache one morning. She couldn't quite put her finger on the cause, but she did have some ideas. It could have been Rand, who had kept the house up by shouting at the disembodied voice inside his head. It could have been Demandred, who had woken everyone up with his nightly failed attempt on Rand's life (this one involved a rock and a half-empty bottle of wine.) The headache might have been due to the screaming fit that Semirhage and Siuan Sanche were having over what proper Aes Sedai were like. She could have blamed it on Mat yelling cryptic phrases of the Old Tongue in his sleep, but instead, she chose to blame it on Aviendha. The Aiel had decided that Messaana had her sights set on Rand, and she was determined to save to be shared between herself and Elayne. Messaana had not reacted well to waking up with a spear at her throat, so Aviendha was currently in the garage, under orders to repair the balefired wall in Messaana's room.
No, Nyneave reflected, it was not easy sharing a house with such a diverse lot of people. Only days before, they had been fighting to the death, as good battled evil, Aiel battled wetlander, and Rand battled voices. Now, they were forced to work together to escape the fate that Moridin had bound them to: the dreaded Houseshare.
