The last time she'd been on Dragonstone Aemond had lost an eye. But gained a dragon. A fair exchange he'd called it. She wonders if Aegon thinks it's a fair exchange; his sister's life, his cousin's lives, his uncle's life all in exchange for a crown he doesn't even care about. She scoffs at herself staring out at the raging sea from the ramparts of Dragonstone. Does she even think she got a fair exchange? Giving up King's Landing, the only home and only family she'd ever known for what? Her sense of honor, a father that hadn't spoken to her in years? Half siblings she barely knew? Dragonstone with its awful roaring ocean tides and air so cold it hurts down to your bones?

Her thoughts drift back to her father; he'd been standing at the Queen's side as she had sworn her oaths. He had looked something. Triumphant? Bored? Proud? She didn't know him well enough to tell. How long has it been since they'd had an actual conversation, she could barely remember. The day after Leana's funeral perhaps, certainly not the last time he'd come to King's Landing when he had cut the head off Vaemond in the middle of the throne room. In truth she does not know if she even wishes to have a conversation with him. Though her wishes seem to be for naught, as she catches sight of him on the endless stairs up from the beach to the castle proper. She straightens her spine, her hands clasps neatly in front of her as she watches his approach. She gives a polite dip of her head as he reaches the ramparts. "Father."

@caraxesryder asked: apparently we’re going to be working on this together now

"It would appear so." Her gaze didn't rise to the prince as he entered the room. Instead, it remained upon the elaborate tea set before her as she moved through the motions of making a fresh pot of tea. Carefully measuring out the dried leaves and then adding boiling water. More than aware that by subtly ignoring him it would most likely cause him irritation. A growing enjoyment of hers if she were to be honest. He was a man whose skin was easy to get underneath. The kind that would have been good practice for kunoichi still in training.

Finally putting down the white wooden scoop in her hands she looked up at him after placing the lid to the pot into place. Motioning for him to sit across from her as a soft smile spread over her lips. "It will be good for both nations to have members of the royal family acting as the face for this treaty."

A treaty that held darker truths than either of their peoples knew of course. His family hadn't reached out for their unique economy or political ties. The true business was taking place behind the scenes, in the shadows. If he were aware of this or not however she had yet to determine.

@caraxesryder asked: [ choose ] sender has plenty of options on where to sit in a crowded space, but chooses to sit directly beside receiver

This social event was quite crowded, too much to Thinya's taste. Her father had decided to send her, hoping that she would represent the Somerville household with her younger brother, Leidin, while he was traveling for business. Her eighteen year old brother would be her chaperone, an order that her father had given earlier. As she sat quietly at the dinner table, Thinya remained silent. Leidin was sitting opposite to her and talking with other gentlemen, making the woman wish she could've stayed home and avoided this whole evening.

As the valet served her a glass of champagne, the brunette noticed a man sitting by beside her. Turning her head, her green hues detailed him and wondered if she had ever seen him before. "Are you sure you wish to sit by my side? I have heard that my company can be quite dreadful." Thinya commented, a hint of joke in her tone as she took a sip of her champagne. Of course, no one ever said this about her. However, Thinya was known to be the woman who tried to avoid potential suitors at all costs. Much to her father's despair.

@caraxesryder said: ❝ Am I not what you expected? ❞

Meeting another Targaryen was always something that she had wanted after losing her brother. She had heard what her brother had told her about a Targaryen alone in the world and Dany had indeed been feeling that, hadn't she? Like a burden on her shoulders getting heavier and heavier. Daemon Targaryen was not at all like her brother but there was a dangerous glint in his eyes, something dark that she wasn't sure she should trust. A legend himself but Dany was queen of Meereen, she was the Mother of Dragons, she didn't need to be intimidated.

"I thought you would arrive with something more than your name and dragon." She did wonder what he thought of her three dragons that flew over the Great Pyramid even now. "I thought you would arrive with an offer."

[astormofsilk]

"i do not deny it…" asked by @caraxesryder

"You would do well not to since it would be a lie." Rhea huffed slightly, refusing to look her her husband as they sat together at the banquet. Rumors had reached her about his affiars and this was not the place she wanted to confront him about it.

They weren't in love, but he could at least be respectful.

[acourtcfmuses]

@caraxesryder asked: "I don't believe that anybody's coming to look for you”

"I wouldn't say that your Grace." Kate told the Prince politely. "I am my younger sister's most trusted confident. She will come looking for me soon enough. If not her, then my mama, or Lady Danbury." if only to ensure she had not insulted some less than poor soul.

She cast her eyes behind him to the door to the ballroom. "Though I would say, most would find my being with you alone out here entirely inappropriate." even if they were in eyesight of others, and she was not looking for a husband anyway. she just didn't want to ruin her sisters prospects.

@caraxesryder asked: The lowborn claiming dragons, was it her idea?

His gaze slowly shifted from where he was lounging out on the rocks, a bottle of wine dangling from his fingers. There were few who knew the secret of what he really was. That in truth he was older than even Vhagar. Learning long ago, before the fall of Valeria how to shift his form through the use of the very blood magic that had created his kind and the bond they had with the rulers of Westeros. Not even all of the royal family was aware of what he was. None of the greens for instance.

Head tipping back from where he'd been watching the Weirwood he watched the eldest of the bloodline now, dark hues unwavering for long moments before he took another sip of wine. "Does it matter who claims one of my brethren? It is our choice on who we allow to ride upon our backs and claim our power."

[geishaprincess]

@caraxesryder because no memes looked good

She wasn't sure why it had been insisted upon that she go to Onigashima to attend to Kiado and the Shogun, but she did know one thing. It wouldn't be good. Her presence, as the highest-ranking Geisha in the country, meant that they were entertaining powerful guests. Even the Shogun, who had helped kill her father and take his place as the ruler of Wano didn't call her for no reason. That was the level of her rank.

Thus as she slipped into the room she'd been directed to in order to entertain their guest, she kept her face perfectly masked. The alluring set to her features one that she'd trained to maintain for years as her teal gaze slid to find the man she was to attend to that evening. Alighting upon hair as white as snow and a completion and facial structure she'd rarely seen she arched one brow. Her lips pulling into the kind of smile that brought men to their knees. "I was curious as to why I was summoned, however, it makes sense now."

The bow was practiced, smooth, and elegant. Chin dipping to the perfect level as she added, gaze dropping as if demure as she added. "My name is Komurasaki. I will be attending you this evening my lord."

/Problem/. '' And? ''

Perhaps it wasn't the worst idea to retreat to the company of Caraxes alone ( now that he eyed all the ' ruins ' emblazoning his visual aspects ) while sustaining mien patiently unjudging; and Gods above knew Viserys was trying. Of course, the blood sure wasn't his, otherwise, dear brother wouldn't be smirking the way he is. The fixing part was apparent but - '' What did you do? '' @caraxesryder || cont.

[lcveblossomed]

@caraxesryder asked: How awfully presumptuous of you to think I'd let you.

Baela had come to her father stating facts. She was going to marry Jace she was only stating the fact to him. They were not willing to wait until the war was over. There were too many times that they had nearly died so they did not want to wait any longer. She would rather die married to the person she loves than unwed. So they were leaving for the Sept it would be a quick affair nothing special they could do some grand affair after the war if everyone truly wanted it.

She stops looking back at her father with surprise on her face. "You will not let me?" She lets out a scoff unable to hide the rolling of her eyes. If he thought he was allowed to demand such things of her he was a fool. She had stopped listening to what he had to say when she was sent away to live with her grandmother. "I do not need your permission. Jacaerys is my betrothed we are in love if we wish to marry now we can do just that. I told you as a kind gesture but it is happening either way you will not stop it."

[caelmewedd]

Aevon blinked when she saw that the Prince was crouching and visibly twisting his lips in a smile. It encouraged her a bit to take a slightly more daring stance. What would she want to know about dragons?

"Possibly everything, sir. That's because..." She replied quietly and uncovered her cloak to show what she was hiding. It was a small, four-legged dragon mostly in shades of deep purple with light purple and pink accents. Although the creature she had recently found was very affectionate to her, she had no idea how to care for a dragon or any kindred creature.

"This is Nevermore." Aevon said, introducing her dragon to Daemon. "Have you ever seen a dragon or a creature of the species like her, sir. She's not like other dragons or anything...I've heard that you're familiar with dragons, sir...so maybe...you could help me with her?" Aevon asked, once again falling into a shy tone. She had never had or even seen a dragon with her eyes before, so she would welcome advice from someone who knew a thing or two about these creatures.

"I've never had a dragon, and I'd like to learn how to take care of one," she said. She added hoping that help would be given to her.

The little girl, Aevon shyly approached Daemon and gently tugged his cloak. “Uhmmm…Hello...Are you Daemon Targaryen, sir?” She asked as shyly as she looked at him. She didn't know if she could learn from him what she was so interested in, but she decided to take a chance. “Will you tell me all about the dragons?” She asked, hoping the man would answer her questions.

He was speaking with one of the dragon caretakers discussion diminishing food sources when he heard a voice.

Turning, he survied behind him trying to find where the voice was coming from only to look down. A child?

"You wish to know about dragons?" he purred, a crooked smirk on his face as he bent down.

"And what is it you wish to know?"

[wintersxkiss]

@caraxesryder continued from here

"I have been cast aside and find myself beyond bored." She replied smoothly, lifting her tea to her lips to take a sip before raising her gaze to his. One elegant brow arching at him in quiet challenge as she added. "What do you think?"

[3katanas]

@caraxesryder asked: "So what goes on in here, huh? What are you hiding?"

"You think I know more than you?" One dark brow arched in the royal direction even as he slipped into the catacombs that led down to the secret fighting pits. It hadn't taken him long to find them, accustomed as he was with the underbelly of a city. Every city had one of them if you knew where to look, which thanks to growing up as he had, he did.

[anoddbunch]

@caraxesryder said: "Do exactly as I say, and maybe you'll survive this."

He looked at Daemon for a long time, staring at Daemon like the man before him was a stranger. He had never been close to Daemon, but Jace did know the importance of Daemon's place in this war. He had even told his mother about it. They needed Daemon and his dragon. "Are you going to protect me now?" He questioned, his hands resting on the hilt of his sword, his tone even and low.
