Dream IV ❄ video/open action

[branstark]

[Bran has wheeled himself into the square. Summer is beside him, under command to sit and stay, and is doing so obediently.

In one hand Bran holds his device, a little unsteady, while the other clutches tightly at the handrim of his wheelchair.]

Everyone is saying that today, things are different... that there are people here from other worlds. From--

[He falters, readjusts himself, takes a deep breath-- and then goes on.]

If there is anyone here from Winterfell, or from Westeros at all, I'd like to see you, please.

[ooc: You heard the boy! GoT/ASOIAF people, come and find him. This is SO VERY OPEN to everyone else, too, though! Let the games begin!]

Robert Baratheon taught your father to welcome his guests with a wine skin in one hand and a warm whore in the other.

Fine learning, that. See that you master it.

I wouldn't know where to get such things even if I wanted to, not here. This is a different sort of place.

[a-wager-won.livejournal.com]

A place the like of which your wet nurse told you, no doubt. Women always work their mouths.

[Bran pouts. This man is a Lannister, but is also the one who made it so that he could ride.]

I always liked scary stories best, actually.

...so would Jaime. I have one so for you, cripple, if you'll have it. Though know that the dwarf only speaks, he doesn't sing.

I'm not like him, and I've got a name; it's Bran. [He presses his lips together.] I would... hear your story, though.

You are lord Bran Stark of Winterfell and you are a cripple.

Here is my story. If you won't have the horror on your ears, turn away now: there was once a kind man blessed with charm, wit, handsomeness and ability. The Seven loved him well, but his fellow men didn't, so they gave him the worst curse.

[a-wager-won.livejournal.com]

They made him ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, to smell King's Landing every day.


A tale of horror beyond compare, I am aware, but you seemed old enough to bear it.

It isn't a very good story. It doesn't even have any monsters in.

[a-wager-won.livejournal.com]

...you have yet to see our rats in the South. Some wear a crown.

[branstark.livejournal.com]

Rats aren't monsters. And they don't wear crowns. [Ever the literal child.]
