What if Valentinian decided to give in to Attila and allow him to marry his sister Honoria? Perhaps he doesn't wish to tempt Attila. I expect him to at least have the balls to have Attila convert, probably also keep the throne for himself, or maybe co-rule(though if he knows that Attila killed his brother, Bleda, to become the Hunnic King, he might be willing to let Attila become Emperor, if only to save his life).
This would probably give new life to the Western Empire, considering that Attila was a much better ruler than most of the contemporary Emperors, especially militarily. Also, he would've kept Aetius around (possibly arranging a marriage between the two families), a good thing, considering Aetius' skill.
