A dream about a queen...

[valyrianstorm]

I am not surprised you return to me; I only wish your interest hadn't been spurred by that dream. He is dead and he will remain so. I miss the boy he used to be - many did not know him then - but I cannot let sorrow blind me.

My throne is occupied by one who is not worthy. My people are being led by a family of usurpers. I care little that the King is a boy.

[Boys grow into men far too quickly.]

Viserys and I were never shown much mercy - and all the mercy we were shown came with a heavy price.

If Tommen does not know the way the world works, I will educate him while I decide what punishment is best for him and his relations.

Khaleesi?

[Drogo did not know what to make of her words about this boy king. Her brother? He was a fool in Drogo's eyes. Not worthy enough to lead men. Yet, his Khaleesi.....she would be a queen.]

[ooc: just to let you know I'm only up to Season 3 of GOT so forgive me if I don't get future events.]

Drogo <3

[valyrianstorm]

[With all the possibilities this strange realm offers, this is not one she considered...or expected. She rises shakily from her seat, realizing that her love for her Khal hasn't lessened in the least.

He is perfect and strong. As he should be.]

Shekh Ma Shieraki Anni. [Her Sun and Stars... Forgetting her pride and her composure, she runs to him, cupping his face between her hands.] I have missed you.

[king_dick]

I know, right? It's totally the worst. And the next thing you know, your castle is gone, and no one believes in your dragon, and the zombies keep pulling focus during your love duet, and your girlfriend leaves you for some cat island.

Do you know if he happens to have a thing about feet? Because if he does, you should totally hit him in the feet. Well, not literally. ...Well, possibly literally.

[valyrianstorm]

[She is fairly sure this man is speaking nonsense.]

I do not know anything about him except that he is young and he is my enemy.

[But the part about a dragon...]

Tell me more of your dragon.

[king_dick]

His name is Tad Cooper and when he grows up, we will strike fear into the hearts of everyone who has ever opposed us or made fun of me.

Yesh we will. Yesh. Yesh.

[It's an iguana.]

[valyrianstorm]

[...what? No, really. What? Daenerys takes a deep breath, gritting her teeth.]

That is a lizard; not a dragon.

[king_dick]

Don't listen to her Tad Cooper. You are so a dragon!

[valyrianstorm]

What sort of name is that? No wonder he is so small if you name him after a tadpole!

[king_dick]

It is a name that evokes strength and valor and bravery! And true, he has some growing to do, but he's going to do it. Just look at that face!

[valyrianstorm]

I say it evokes the opposite. [Why not try names like Viserion, Rhaegal or Drogon?] I have three dragons who would hardly call him a snack.

[king_dick]

Clearly you know little of names.

And it is not the size of your dragon, it is the passion with which you wield it. Apparently. I may be mixing up two different concepts.

[mistressofstories]

True strength and nobility comes from knowing when to grant clemency.

[valyrianstorm]

A family that has proven itself traitorous many times over does not deserve clemency.

[mistressofstories]

It's the elders that carry the sins, the younger ones only learn and bare the weight of those sins.

[baetiful]

These are most impressive words. But that is all they are. Words. Most unfortunately while you are here, you can do little.

[valyrianstorm]

My words have never been empty. I do what I say and I hold no regrets.

[baetiful]

And who is it you are trying to convince? Me? Yourself? With all due respect, my lady, being here, where we are, we are held back by an invisible string. The only one you can hope to convince in order to accomplish much of anything is...

[ He trails off, giving a wave toward the air as though to indicate some unseen force. ]

So what is it you will do, I wonder, when we are at the mercy of the whims and dreams of this unseen hand?

[valyrianstorm]

I can be patient; I can wait for an opening. Thus far, my dreams have come true. Why would that stop before I reach Westeros?

[She's young and headstrong, yet she believes in her cause.]

Anyone who tries to ensnare me will die. A dragon cannot be confined.

[baetiful]

While it is true it would be difficult to confine a dragon, they can be killed. They have been killed. Not saying the same fate would befall you, of course. You are quite the force with which to be reckoned. And I respect someone who can act with patience, waiting for the stars to align in their favor.

But Westeros is a ways away. Perhaps it is one of those, what do they call them? Games...you should focus on conquering first.

[valyrianstorm]

Anyone who seeks to slay either myself or my children will be punished most severely. [i.e. lethally.] In time, I will take Westeros like a storm. All of its lands will be conquered before I take the throne.

[Because that's how she rolls.]

I imagine life is a game to you.

[baetiful]

[ It sounds like the Targaryen way! ]

Life is only what we make of it, my lady. Or should I say 'your grace?' [ There is the briefest trace of an amused smirk. ] Everyone plays one game or another.

But the games I speak of are neither of life nor of land. I refer to the ones the muns play. The ones in which we have little choice but to take part.

[zealots]

The man who smiles too much has a point. [If just one.] Grand words are still just words.

What is it that makes you worthy where others are not?
