I hate that we can't go see and talk to them all, unless we are spending hours talking to them, which would have to include our entire life story, I don't see how we couldn't talk to them all for a few minutes.

This is the one that you are focused on. All events transpire, but this is the you the reader get to focus on... and because I really did try to write all the aftermaths but could not, and to avoid burnout, I'm asking to stick to one.

The Tourney Finale
The entire rest of the day seemed to pass in a blur. Steffon was taken to the Maesters Tower and treated for his injuries.
The Maester was quite surprised that the boy was still able to stand and be carried to him in his condition. Two of his ribs were bruised and looked almost cracked from the fall from the horse, and the horse stomp should have done extensive damage to his back and head. Yet there was nothing but bruises and small cuts.
Aerys locked himself in his room, the servants bringing him both dinner and writing supplies for the future. Aegon seemed to have said something that rattled him… or that made him more determined than ever.
The Lannister duo, Tywin, and Joanna were… coping. They were not in danger, at least not in and more than they could have been. Tywin was pacing and Joanna, after she had finished crying, was focusing more on trying to keep her mind busy.
However, Nymeria, more than anyone else, was the one you were most worried about.
She had been next to Steffon when he was hurt, nearly killed when the horse began to buck and become wild.
She was terrified and alone. At least for those crucial moments between Steffon falling, and getting back up to kill the man who shot him.
You looked at her for a moment, then sat next to her. The godswood was quiet, probably the few placed that were quiet after such a pandemonium. "Are you alright?" You asked quietly.
Nymeria was quiet for a moment. "I was so stupid." She stated. "It was my idea to go mystery knight in the tournament with Steffon. I wanted him to win and crown me Queen of Love and Beauty." She was now sobbing. "I just-"
She stopped talking and wept. For a moment you thought of an answer. Finally, you said. "It was reckless of you to do such a thing." That made the girl stop sobbing and look at you, dornish fury in her eyes. "But you and Steffon did save the King's life." You replied. "So I think it evens out."
The sobbing was truly stopped now, as Nymeria wiped the snot and tears from her face with the sleeve of her dress. "Really?"
"I think so. That doesn't mean we can remain foolish and reckless." You stated. "The king and Steffon nearly died today, and while that was outside of our control, it still could have ended badly. I don't think we can be children anymore… not after this." Then you felt a pang in your mind, bubbling anger. "How could anyone miss that… why didn't the Master of Whispers say anything about a potential assassination plot on the King's life?" You stood up and began to pace. "Aerys saw it in a dream and-"
Then a thought rose in Nymeria's mind… "Wait, a dream?" She asked.
"Yeah… that's what Aerys said. He said he saw it in his dreams." You replied.
Nymeria than had a small grin on her face. "Never mind, at least right now… I need to think. Thank you Arstan for helping me."
"Your welcome." You replied.
As you walked through the halls, for a moment, you thought you saw your father, in regal colors and escorting large chests of gold and silver… but you thought it was just a vision, a trick of your mind.
An illusion for safety.
So you went to bed.
Do you go to Maester Jonnel's lessons?:

Do you go to Ser Duncan's Lessons:
[]Yes
[]No
After the Lessons, what do you do:
(Choose 3 or 4 or 5 if you choose no on any of the options above)
[]The Wards Together: It seems Aerys and Nymeria are calling a meeting for every one of the Wards... best find out what it is.
[]Go to the Library: You want to read some books.
[]Request an Audience with the King: You want to speak to the King, in private hopefully. About duty, and knighthood… And why the hell his Master of Whispers missed that plot.
[]Spend time with Joanna: The Other Lannister was much more... social, less cold and calculating.
[]Spend time with Rhaella: she is your friend and loves reading… maybe… wait, she wants you to help her find a book?
[]Spend time with Nymeria: The Dornish girl has that idea she wants to tell you about.
[]Spend time with Steffon: Steffon the Brave he is being called. He likes it far too much.
[]Spend time with Tywin: Well, he is certainly an interesting fellow to talk to.
[]Spend time with Aerys: Areys is… happy? Content? There were no works
[]Request to Squire with one of the Kingsguard: You want to become a knight, in earnest now.
[]The Septon and the Boy: A Street Septon bumped into you as you were going to the Great Sept… And he was far more interesting than the other Septons you've seen. A real... wise man.
AN: Enjoy.

You aren't kidding. Considering that we had to be hustled along by flanks of Gold Cloaks and probably a few men at arms from our own respective houses (considering the recent round of bullshit), that must have been one hell of a message. I won't lie and say that finding a genuinely good member of the faith isn't something I've wanted for a long time here.
There are a lot of good choices here though.

I know right, I always prefer the stories that portrayed them more evenly. So many good options this turn, damnit Magoose now I'm tempted to skip the lessons this turn and the Maester will punish us for that and we really need to up our combat to be useful. Maybe we'll get a break due to the current goings on but I kinda doubt it.

My god we are barely solvent. Twenty five thousand for our education!? The measters teachings aren't worth half that amount!

Yeah, that was last year's expense report, not this year's report. This year's report is much better, but I decided to hide it from you because REASONS!
Also, that education budget was for the entire time we're in the capital, so it's a one-time payment.
Dad is investing in his holdings, his vassal's holdings, way to increase wealth, and repairing shit that the mountain clans broke.
But I will give you the income for this year:
Annual Income: 15,432,240
Annual Expenditure: 6,210,321
