on selecting a medium to app from and voice testing

[pimping]

Bewildered, child? I would expect as much from a newcomer to the south.

[Leaning back on a plush chair, he seems more than a little bored by the query posed to him. Littlefinger always has other matters to attend to. "Small matters" as the king would call them but matters nonetheless. Knives must find their way into the right hands and blades must graze the right throats. Gold must drip here and run dry there. Words can't be wielded callously lest the wrong people end up bleeding before their time. It's not out of care that he concerns himself with such trivialities. He just happens to be a great admirer of perfect synchronicity between thought, time, and action. It's the ideal condition for setting things in motion.]

So what exactly is the nature of this dilemma of yours? Don't dally. Time slips through our fingers as swiftly as golden dragons pour from the hands of any "honorable" knight at a brothel. Make your choice. Do you prefer your knowledge glistening on the page or sung on the stage? The difference matters little to me.

He's taken to shooting ravens now, has he?

[pimping]

The birds have a habit of repeating things they hear.

[Much like Sansa. A dove and a raven are essentially the same once an arrow's pierced its breast.]

[willas_tyrell]

Well they are clever creatures.

[As clever as the king is violent and stupid.]

[Although on the topic of Sansa, he wouldn't mind learning something, especially since Grandmother seems fixed to marry Willas to her.]

[pimping]

Stupidity and cleverness go hand in hand if you fail to wield the latter properly. I've seen scholars burn in wildfire.

[willas_tyrell]

Yes, cleverness has a tendency to breed hubris. That overconfidence can bring down anyone, no matter how brilliant they are.

[pimping]

It's why the fools feign ignorance even as they sing treason.

[He doesn't wear the mockingbird for nothing.]

[willas_tyrell]

[Willas quirks an eyebrow]

I suppose whether or not they are fools depends on their plans.

[pimping]

I think you mean it depends on their execution.

[Of the plans or of the fools? He'll leave him to ponder that on his own.]

[willas_tyrell]

[He has an idea]

True. Best made plans and whatnot.
