005 -- video;
[ ah, robb returns to video posts. there's a marked difference in the set of his face. he looks older, more solmen if such a thing were possible, more like his father, than he did in those very first few times he'd addressed the ship. grey wind is at his elbows, eyes gleaming as his great jaws part in a disinterested yawn. the display of teeth though, that sure is something to see. robb sinks a hand into the fur at the scruff of grey wind's neck, and the action is almost a boy reaching for something familiar, something to anchor himself to. ]
I wish to request a favor of this ship.
[ kings don't make requests, they give orders. that is what robb learned from his namesake but in his time spent aboard this ship he's also learned that a displaced king gets himself more by requesting rather than trying to command. ( like the beggar king, and if his stomach turns at that he ignores it. ) ]
My youngest brother Rickon has come aboard this vessel. I don't seek to curb his curiosity, but only to ask that discretion is used when answering his questions and granting him knowledge.
[ there's a pause. grey wind huffs a breath, impatient, and robb's hand twists in the fur. ]
And perhaps not encourage his fondness for knives.

Sorry, sorry. I shouldn't.

I suppose I should just be glad he's not found a spiked mace or sometihng of that nature.
no subject
I think right now you should just be glad no one's told him about lasers-- I have never met a kid with any interest in destruction who wouldn't mind easy access to a laser.
no subject
[ renfaire has no lasers jenna ]

No, it is for the best. Though it sounds not unlike a tale from home. Perhaps he has already heard.

...I would limit his access to science types-- just a helpful hint. They're the one with the bombs, generally.
no subject
Bombs?
no subject
They make things explode, and some of the less extreme kinds are small enough to fit in your pocket.
no subject
Rickon must never be told of them.
