On her journal title. Modern AU!Game of Thrones Cersei

[firstladylion]

...Do you really think that a Simpson's quote is integrating with anybody? There's quite a bit they do teach you at Harvard Law School. One of which is how to deal with idiots like you who think that simpsons quotes in high places are funny when you're trying to make an important impression.

...Well? I'm here. And Despite the "She's basically Sarah Palin" comments I'm not going to call anybody and hit you. Bring me my children. And my brother. I'm nothing like Sarah Palin.

...I'd be much more effective.

Comments

[princetonprince]

I'm a little offended at the implication that you're anything like that idiot.

[firstladylion]

[She looks gratified for a moment, trying to throw it off.]You can thank the writer. She thinks it's a funny comparison and neglects all of my more engaging qualities.

For the moment.

[Embittered wildfire female who wants power and has no idea what to do with it when she gets it. Cersei smiles boldly at him.]

Jamie.

[princetonprince]

I'm sure she'll wise up. How can anyone mistake you for that? Especially with Ned Stark being from Alaska, they like to call him "Sarah Palin only competent." They'll get bored of it eventually.

[Damn. She knows she really shouldn't smile at him like that in public, but he manages to cover up his real thoughts with a smirk.] Cersei?

[firstladylion]

See? At least I know dinosaurs weren't here four thousand years ago. And if that's the Alaskan educational system. [The smallest of small shrugs. And then because she's toying with him she points at his lapel]

You have a really big piece of lint on your collar.

[princetonprince]

[snort.] Right? I wonder if they're even allowed to say the word "evolution."

[She is toying with him and it's not even fair. He reaches up to pluck at a random spot.] Did I get it?

[firstladylion]

At least their children are down in-what do they call it-lower forty eight states and they can have a decent education. It could be worse however. It could be California.

[With a smart smirk she picks it off the other lapel and shows it to him.] Notable impression for a CFO.

[princetonprince]

What's wrong with California?

You're my favorite twin so I'm going to tell you a secret: CFOs are supposed to be the crazy ones.

[fullofsongs]

I want to be you when I grow up
You're nothing like Sarah Palin. She isn't even that pretty.

[firstladylion]

You are a very smart girl

She's very pretty in her own way. It's important to never actually decry somebody's physical flaws. [Openly. But Cersei's smiling at that all the same.]

[fullofsongs]

Teach me your wonderful first-lady ways. I'll need them when I'm Joffrey's first lady.

Oh. I see. [Forgive her, she's an eighth grader.] I won't do it again. You're smarter than she is, too.

[firstladylion]

Lesson one. Dinosaurs were not here four-thousand years ago. Lesson two. Call someone not-so-pretty in front of a reporter you can trust. Like Ten. Bring down regimes in five little words.

Well, Harvard Business school will do that. Have you thought about what you want to do when you get older little dove?

[She has her, you know, thoughts about kids colleges and things like that. Private thoughts.]

[fullofsongs]

Why would I call someone not-so-pretty in front of a reporter? And how do you bring down regimes in five words?

Harvard Business? Wow. [She smiles. She gets star-struck easily.] Oh, yes. I'd like to go to Yale for college, they have an amazing conservatory-- then maybe Harvard Law to really round myself out. I'd like to be First Lady myself, some day.

[firstladylion]

Oh Sansa. Come. Let Cersei teach you all the things.

[To her credit she doesn't flinch. No one remembers her contributions except for Jamie. She's just there for parties and to set a fashion standard when she could be as good-if not better-then Eleanor Roosevelt. :|] ...Never let anybody stand in the way of that dream Sansa. It's a good one, and you should have a skill to offer someone.

A certain someone shall we say?

[eyebrow raise, friendly waggle]

what journal fail

[aroyaldouche]

Ned Stark's Sarah Palim, Mother. He lives in Alaska and can see The Wall Russia from his observation deck.

[/sees nothing like a good Lannister]

[firstladylion]

You are never going to Alaska. Ever. [The education might infect your mind.]

yes. good.

[aroyaldouche]

I never want to go to Alaska. Ever.

[firstladylion]

Good.

You can find oil just as often in the ocean as you can there.

[aroyaldouche]

I'm not going anywhere to deal with oil. That's just boring - and messy. Boring and messy, and nothing for me to deal with.

[firstladylion]

You ought to consider it. Even in a small way. Pay attention to the environment around you so you know how to achieve what you want.

[immodest]

I'd have gone with Margaret Thatcher, crossed with Hillary Clinton in a terrible miracle of science.

[she beams!]

...but in a good way.

[lol no there is no good way.]

[firstladylion]

Margaret Thatcher and Hillary Clinton? [Feels. So much better. Except she's not grinning stupidly like she'd like to. Instead she's just nodding and smiling] My writer could learn a lot from you.

[immodest]

They have much better taste in suits.

[firstladylion]

Then Palin? and her red suit illustrating to everyone that she can see Russia?

[immodest]

Is that why she wears it? I knew she must have some ulterior motive.

[queenofdragons]

I wish being half a world away would make it easier to forget you exist. Sadly, that isn't the case for me.
