If you're going to go begging, why not search for someone that likes me? It may surprise you to know that they do exist.

Your fascination with the little wolf king aside, I see not why you would hope to draw any kind of Stark to Baedal. No one has ever lifted a glass to their conversational talents, their fine company. Why Robb in particular? Spirited wolf he may be, but he's still a Stark, and we didn't part on the best of terms.

And as for Brienne of Tarth, her reputation only precedes her; I've not laid eyes on that before. More's the pity, I'm sure.

You keep saying 'canon update', but I have no idea what it means. I hope it's a threat.

[rhinemaid]

It would surprise me.

[ YOU'RE STILL A TOOL, TOOLFACE ]

[thethingsidoforlove]

That's only because you don't like me. I'm sure if you tried harder--

[rhinemaid]

--I would find even more reasons not to like you?

[thethingsidoforlove]

Very likely. You did catch me in a rather minor infraction.

[rhinemaid]

Your morals don't really interest me; I just think you're an asshole.

[thethingsidoforlove]

Oh, but we have that in common.

[norea]

Maybe she thinks the people who like you would be too easy for you. You've got friendly people already in the city, haven't you?

[thethingsidoforlove]

Gods forbid anything be easy.

Yes, one or two, in a sea of irritations.

[norea]

It's peculiar because I've always found you quite a lot nicer than most of the people I run around with. My perception's become skewed, I guess.

Anyway, Jack ought to count for at least ten people.

[thethingsidoforlove]

I'm perfectly chivalrous. But you can't please everyone.

And if Jack ought to count for ten people, I ought to be paid more.

[norea]

You can, however, probably refrain from openly insulting a visible Xenian, but that's up to you.

Oh, well! You'll have to take that up with him. I'm glad you're there, though, I worry about his welfare.

[thethingsidoforlove]

I don't actually make a habit of it. [ It was just such a perfect line-- ] Not out of the Arena, in any case.

You're a friend of his highness, I take it?

[freakishwench]

[stiffly:] Though you mock me, I would not wish a canon update upon you. No one deserves that.

[thethingsidoforlove]

Ah, and the Beauty herself graces me with her presence. Pray educate me, Brienne of Tarth.

[gotbottle]

Oh, they never do that. Find people who like you, or anything else that would make your life easier or better. Apparently it's "entertainment" for them to do otherwise.

[thethingsidoforlove]

The savagery of human nature takes a great deal of forms. Bears in the fighting pit, and so on.

[gotbottle]

Right? Just when I think I've seen it all, one of them goes and pulls something else.

...Have you ever actually fought a bear in a pit?

[thethingsidoforlove]

Apparently I shall, in the event of an 'update'. I've had practice with a lion in Baedal, however. Gallant enough, do you think?

[gotbottle]

Very. Also impressive. I'm glad to know Jack will be in such accomplished hands.

[thethingsidoforlove]

If he doesn't brag about it as promised, I'll be very put out.

[country_matters]

Surely it's preferable to being cooped up.

[thethingsidoforlove]

The mundane's given me room a plenty to stretch my legs. I dare say the world would only feel so much smaller if she started filling it with Starks, sweet sister.

[country_matters]

Certainly larger than it could be. Mine has kept me here idle for some time now.

[thethingsidoforlove]

A waste of your talents and beauty, but you cannot blame someone for wanting to keep you on their shelf. They're mere mortals, Cersei.

[ This is why he gets all the ladies-- no. ]

[country_matters]

[Flattery will get you everywhere, sweet Jaime. She gives him a wry little smirk, but it's clear she likes him doting on her a bit.]

Still. There is little to be done that may affect anything here, and this girl grows tiresome.
