As An Eagle Flies (A House Arryn Quest)

[X]Next to Rhaella: She looks sad and wants to say something to you.

Good, cause i have no idea as to what a six year old noble would say.
 
Sitting with Rhaella probably represents our just not really wanting to get involved with a situation that we are ill prepared for. Most of the people here are already playing their own games, of which we don't really know the rules, so we need a breath. Rhaella isn't playing (or if she is, we can't tell) and... if she just wants to say 'hi'? She should get the chance to. And she sure as hell isn't going to get a word in past Prince McAsshat or even most of the others.

Everyone else here could damn well MAKE themselves heard. By blind, deaf, comatose lobotomy patients.

So we may as well be somewhere useful and where we can get our bearings. We just stumbled into a whole dining hall filled with weird.

Aerys isn't the crown Prince. Summerhall hasn't happened yet, so he's just a prince, a free willed on at that.

Plus with the Queen Consort in there, there is going to be manners at the breakfast table.

Wait until we get the ground rules from Aegon and we start training, then it gets weird.

Dude, they're kids, with the exception of maybe Tywin, i highly doubt the others give a rat's ass about the Great Game.

Everyone in this room understands their important... but their children, who want to focus on childish things.

Like adventuring, training, reading... and other fun things.

Kids care a lot about it. They just perform it on a smaller scale. Childhood is a neverending game of gaining favor and playing chicken with authority, circling wagons and counting coup. They have no perspective, inflating its importance, and are generally just plain bad at it... but it sure as hell means something to them.

Adults just escalated it to the Game of Thrones. Same game, horrifically high stakes. Its all the same raw material though.
 
Just caught up with this one and wow Jon really quickly became Lord Deathflag. Pretty cool so far, personally I don't care much for the story of GoT but I do love the world and chances to fuck around with it so this should be fun.

Would have gone with Nymeria but this one's in the lead.
