:)
[physical copies of this message can also be found 1. permanent sticking charm'd to Lucrezia's door 2. folded up as paper aeroplanes and flying around in the air, possibly bumping repeatedly into your head as they try to get your attention. eventually they will fade and fall to the floor and then the roombas can have a grand old time.]
action!
Gross. But he said he would answer, right, and he could go back on his word--but then again, it's Lucrezia, who he is (despite himself) fond of, because how could you not be.]
Well-- [He frowns, and this is a Serious Frown, and he rubs at his mouth to sort of dispel that.] No? I mean-- you're here, aren't you. And secret mysterious lover is here as well, for however long a time you're here.
I mean, you don't have to marry him, do you. Live in the moment. Do they have that saying in old Rome? I mean, if you don't, you're seriously missing out. [A beat.] I assume. Not knowing the mysterious secret lover myself, I can only assume, but-- yeah.
action!
[ she smiles, a crooked angle of her lips. Of course he would say so. Carpe Diem, she thinks, and Sirius Black - almost the same thing. ]
So Horatius wrote. Seize the day.
[ and it's a good answer. 'you don't have to marry him', he says and she thinks her mother would say the same. Had he asked today, well. She'd give her hand for what is a hand when your heart is already at a man's hands?? ]
You have spoken to him, you realize. In that absurd message of yours.
action!
[Merlin, just how long has carpe diem been around--but she seems vaguely pleased by the answer, which is encouraging. So he returns her smile, quietly--though it brightens when she goes on.]
Have I? [And already he's thinking, making a mental catalog of everyone he spoke with--] Well, there's Alayne's pouting friend, Mr Snow. It can't be him. If it was him, he'd not be near so pouty, would he. Edgeworth is out, definitely-- yeah, definitely not Edgeworth.
action!
[ she grins. ]
And not signore Edgeworth. Think, Sirius Black!
action!
You're not going to say Guinevere, are you. [That's a joke, and he grins a little as he glances at her, waiting to see her reaction-- but then it sort of clicks.]
Oh, no.
action!
[ why so horror struck, Sirius? ]
action!
[OH LUCREZIA no]
action!
The King in the North, he is called.
[ and she laughs because oh my, your face. ]
Robb Stark.
[ a smile, coy and sweet. A woman in love, Lucrezia Borgia. ]
action!
Yeah, the King in the North, the King of-- you know, I'm not even very surprised, I should have figured it was him from the start. Of course it would be him.
And congratulations.
action!
[ an arched eyebrow. ]
Why? It could have been nearly anyone.
action!
Did you know his direwolf follows me?
action!
[ she bites her lip to keep from laughing. ]
At times he follows me too but I suspect he follows you for other reasons - what have you done??
action!
[A beat.]
Perhaps too nice for his liking.
action!
[ what does that even means? ]
Too nice -- Sirius Black! Is Grey Wolf guarding you because you flirted with someone Robb cares for?
action!
Honestly.
action!
[ she shakes her head, pokes him in the shoulder. ]
Small wonder that Grey Wind trails you. Better a wolf's suspicion than a Borgia's, Sirius Black. A good thing I didn't know!
action!
[He looks around at her, stung, holding her there with a gaze of shock and--yes, yes, there is a bit of hurt to it as well, and he presses a hand to his chest.]
What-- Lucrezia! Aren't you on my side? I never flirted with her, I was very sweet to her. A perfect gentleman. You can't say you'd have disapproved! Of me?
action!
[ she shifts to sit closer to him, nudging her shoulder against his. ]
I would not have disapproved. But he is her brother. I have two brothers older than me, and I know they would keep a close watch on any man that would speak to me. He is no different than them, it would seem.
action!
Yes, but did your brothers have wolves to set against people that only wanted to speak with you.
action!
action!
[He wrinkles his nose a little, disapproving and sceptical all at once.]
I hate older brothers. If I were free of older brothers, I would be the happiest man alive, I can tell you that. They make everything difficult. They send wolves to follow me when there's no reason--not now, not ever.
[But, solemnly, he shakes his head.]
Robb Stark. You're set on him? Really?
action!
[ his dramatics bring a smile to her lips but she bites it back, nods her head. ]
I am. I do not know that he knows to what degree.
action!
And then, solemnly he nods.]
All right. Then I'll help.
action!
[ Sirius what. ]
action!
Yes. Help. Oh, you'll thank me later, don't worry about that--
