How come I have to have a "silver turd" and a "blind dude" as roommates? They both suck!
Who came up with this idea? This is stupid.

Might kick them out. They're too noisy.

Does anyone even like their roommates? Mine are annoying. Let's do a trade.

There will be no executions here. ( Unless she's authorized it. ) Leave it be for now, my lord.

Both of you have a duty to carry on in this place where our people cannot. We are all that remains. To lose sight of what that means would be foolish.

"My lord?"

You people write so fancily! What's the deal with that?!

lmao thank you for all this

[jelmazmo]

Quite simply: etiquette.

[silverhound]

What's...that? Can I eat it?

[jelmazmo]

( This is going to be interesting. )

Not unless your palate is cleansed by salt and bitterness. It's a term to describe treating others with respect and courtesy as befits their station.

( A beat. )

They both claim to be Royalty when their ancestors bent the knee to mine. In my case, they must earn it. But that is not to say I approve of others disrespecting them.

As it stands, your grace, you rule nothing. What transpired between Robb Stark and I concerns only himself, his family and his bannermen, and it has not yet been resolved. This is his sentence to pass, not yours.

[ Theon understands her meaning, and he doesn't want to die, but he knows what his treachery would have earned him in the North. This is Robb's decision by right, and he'll allow only Robb to decide what should become of him. ]

[jelmazmo]

Only by fault of the Storm. I have heard of Robb Stark before, a little. But if you wish to discuss that further, for his sake I'd insist on it being conducted in private.

I don't know what you've done, only that it must be grave for you to offer your life. We spit on the memory of all those who have perished if we die here so soon. So you will not.

( She will insist here, because she was prepared to work with people she'd not necessarily liked or trusted (Varys) to restore peace to their homeland. It will take some time and an accord before she might ever recognize either of them as her equal. )

[reek]

If you expected the Storm to pass and all of Westeros to bend its knee to you, you were living a child's fantasy.

[ It's okay, though, because he was too. ]

I do not offer my life. I only offer Robb the opportunity to do his duty.

[jelmazmo]

Cersei Lannister destroyed the Sept of Baelor with wildfire—with the majority of House Tyrell and many others of the nobility within.

It would have been much simpler for me than you might imagine.

( When they've lost everything, it seems only natural for them to try and cling to what was. An illusion of control they've ceased to have over their lives. )

And what exactly did you do to apparently render it his duty to execute you?

[reek]

[ Well that is...news. ]

There were others still. Cersei Lannister was not the only person in your path.

[ He clings too, most of all to the Starks despite his argument otherwise. ]

I betrayed him.

[jelmazmo]

Dorne and the Reach were with me, as well as yourself and your sister. I gather that neither of you would recall. This place seems to have taken us from different points in time completely.

But in any case, House Lannister was the one family most despised enough to work together.

( She knows; for she has seen it, and she does not blame either he or Robb for doing what she has.

It is simply that she manages to do so more quietly. )

Why?

( Well; maybe she can blame him after all. She has no sympathy at all for betrayers. )

[reek]

Ask him why he believes I did it. Ask him what he thinks I intended to happen.

[ That's the only response you're getting here, Dany.</small. ]

[jelmazmo]

Very well, I shall. And you are forgiven for being difficult.

( This time. Despite that she very often is quite difficult, herself. )
