#( ysabela + tybolt : 01 )

not one to let his earlier lack of luck deter him, tybolt was on the hunt once more. this time for an entirely different sort of prey. ysabela was neither helpless nor defenceless and more his equal than most, if he were ever to truly compare her to an animal she would be something with instincts just as lethal as him. keen eyes sought out familiar golden hair and when finally glimpsing her, way was made over with surefooted steps. chance had robbed them of time together during the hunt and he was not about to let it do so again. "I believe congratulations are in order." goblet of wine was held in her direction as some kind of peace offering that he hoped would be unnecessary but she had never been shy in finding them reasons to war before. it was the certainty of some kind challenge that kept coming back despite what logic told him, heart winning out as long as he could convince himself nothing but friendship lay within their interactions.

There was a certain eternal pride that came with walking the streets of his home, proud of not only what he had achieved but his ancestors too. they had built the foundation that he had expanded upon, after all. satisfaction only grew as he saw the influx of newcomers into lannisport, brought by the king but still seeing his home in all its glory. confident, leisurely pace was used to walk through the streets, stopping and exchanging niceties with those that he knew. conversation had only just come to a halt when a familiar brunette caught his gaze, new destination immediately headed for. it had been years but features would remain familiar to him, forever etched into his heart and memories. "ysabela." caught somewhat off guard he cannot help but forgo the proper greeting ( after all there had been a time when the two of them were close enough to abandon such formalities ) still choosing to welcome her as a friend rather than admit that the years might have made her a stranger. "had I know you were choosing to tour the city I would have offered myself as guide."

Eyes itch to roll at her teasing but instead he finds himself unable to do anything but match her chuckle. "there are worst things to come back empty-handed from than a hunt." he remained truly unfazed by his apparent lack of success, it was not as though he was a man without skill nor was he alone in failing to snare a prize. but he does find a nagging feeling that perhaps his lack of hunting prowess might have made him fall in ysabela's estimations. he cared little for the opinions of others past making sure he remained in the good graces of others, never needing approval to boost his opinion of himself but the grafton's opinion was one he found mattered. it was not entirely a surprise, he would never write so extensively with someone he did not respect, however, how much he seemed to mind was something of a revelation. "only if we can agree I have no shame to walk off. but even if we cannot it shall not stop me from accompanying you." he leaves unspoken that there was very little that would stop him from joining her, finding he had craved her company and there was only one way he could sate that. hand rested against the small of her back for a moment, indulging in the contact that came with a gentle push towards the doorway. "shall we?"

the  sides  of  the  lady's  lips  tugged  upward  ,  forming  a  smile  as  she  watched  the  lannister  lord  approach  .  she  had  wondered  how  his  hunt  went  ,  trying  not  to  be  upset  at  the  fact  that  they  were  not  grouped  together  .  maybe  it  was  for  the  best  that  they  weren't  else  ysabela  would  not  have  caught  that  boar  of  tybolt  was  .  "  ah  ,  music  to  my  ears  ,  "  accepting  the  goblet  .  "  worry  not  ,  my  lord  .  i  am  sure  you  will  catch  something  in  the  next  hunt  .  a  fox  perhaps  ?  or  maybe  a  rabbit  ?  those  are  fairly  easy  ,  "  ysabela  teased  playful  ,  chuckling  as  she  brought  the  goblet  closer  to  her  lips  .  "  would  you  like  for  me  to  teach  you  a  thing  or  two  ?  i'd  hate  to  let  you  come  back  to  camp  empty-handed  .  "  baela's  tact  came  with  familiarity  and  comfort  ,  a  result  of  years  of  friendship  .   tybolt  was  .  .  .  someone  ?  she  could  not  even  describe  the  nature  of  their  relationship  or  whatever  it  was  called  .  their  closeness  was  tethered  dangerously  beyond  friendship  ,  neither  of  them  were  dense  not  to  notice  ,  and  yet  it  was  as  if  there  was  a  wall  that  barred  anything  from  moving  further  .  "  you  caught  me  at  the  right  time  ,  i  was  about  to  take  a  stroll  .  see  the  attractions  and  what  not  .  walk  off  your  shame  ,  with  me  .  "

lannisport  has  changed  greatly  since  the  last  time  she  stepped  foot  in  it  .  her  last  stay  ,  albeit  brief  ,  left  an  impact  on  the  redwyne  .  the  aura  of  the  city-port  almost  similar  to  her  beloved  arbor  port.  she  had  arrived  the  day  prior  and  was  staying  at  a  merchant's  home  who  happened  to  be  a  family  friend  .  they  wouldn't  hear  of  it  when  baela  mentioned  she  was  to  stay  at  some  tavern  which  she  was  extremely  grateful  for  .  seeing  as  she  had  some  time  before  heading  to  casterly  rock  ,  the  lady  of  the  arbor  decided  to  roam  around  the  streets  of  lannisport  ,  exhilarated  by  the  buzz  and  pace  .  she  had  spent  most  of  her  morning  looking  through  stalls  when  she  heard  her  name  called  out  ,  lifting  her  head  to  find  a  familiar  face  .  "  hello  ,  you  .  "  the  smile  on  ysabela's  face  growing  as  she  watching  tybolt  approach  .  "  i  was  to  ask  what  you  were  doing  here  and  then  remembered  this  was  your  city  .  "  the  brunette  chuckled  .  "  it  was  not  planned  ,  you  see  .  the  house  i  am  staying  in  is  not  too  far  so  i  took  it  upon  myself  to  explore  .  i  had  not  seen  much  yet  so  this  is  your  chance  to  swoop  in  and  show  me  around  .  unless  you're  too  busy  for  me  ,  of  course  .  "
