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.

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.

[rhinemaid]

Congratulations on self-awareness.

[thethingsidoforlove]

Do the arseholes you are friends with lack it?

[rhinemaid]

No, they don't.

[thethingsidoforlove]

But you have a soft spot for ghastly, man-talking monsters.

[rhinemaid]

Who died and declared you arbiter of beauty standards?

[thethingsidoforlove]

I called you pretty, didn't I?

[rhinemaid]

Have you ever heard that saying about a stopped clock?

[thethingsidoforlove]

No.

[rhinemaid]

It's right twice a day.

[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.

[thethingsidoforlove]

He left himself open to the jape. If I weren't to take it, someone would have.

[rhinemaid]

What are you, twelve?

[thethingsidoforlove]

No, but I was spared the burden of maturity and wisdom, or so I'm often told.

[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.

[rhinemaid]

Presumably the space your ego is currently taking up.

[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?
