༘⋆｡ until midnight.

sentence starters for dancing until midnight, masquerade masks, wine-stained lips, the swirl of skirts, and brushing shoulders with nobility.

you can't keep avoiding the dance floor all night.

if no one else has claimed this one, may i?

just one song, please.

tell me something true before the night ends.

i promise not to step on your feet.

one dance - that's all i'm asking for.

you recognized me, didn't you?

if someone catches us out here, we'll be in trouble.

the wine is terrible.

you have quite captured the room's attention, you know.

you shouldn't be seen talking to me.

forgive the interruption, but you looked like you needed rescuing.

you seem so lonely for someone so surrounded by admirers...

have we met before? your eyes look so familiar.

i hear the host is using this to find a bride.

i've been looking for you all evening.

allow me the honor of dancing with you.

you have become exceedingly difficult to ignore.

i promise to return you to your friends before the gossip starts.

you always talk like the entire room belongs to you.

i've been working up the courage to ask you to dance all evening.

shall we pretend to not hate each other for one night?

i hate acting like i care about these events.

why do you host balls if you always go and sulk in the corner?

here, i got you another glass of champagne.

meet me in the hallway. make sure nobody follows you.

you're making an awful lot of enemies if you keep declining dances.

you could at least pretend to be enjoying the celebrations.

you're so unconcerned with appearances. it baffles me.

the terrace is certainly quieter than out here. join me?

you danced with everyone but me.

oh, it's raining - do you want to stay a little longer?

if i speak honestly, everything changes.

𝐋𝐘𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐒. 𝐎𝐋𝐃 𝐕𝐀𝐋𝐘𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐍 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐃.

Known as Lys the Lovely, is one of the nine Free Cities of Essos. It is a small city clinging to rocks surrounded by stormy seas. The city lies off the coast of the Disputed Lands, to the southeast of Tyrosh and to the west of Volantis. A mercantile city, Lys is built on a fertile island considered a paradise by Valyrian dragonlords. The sunny island is fertile with palm and fruit trees, and the surrounding blue-green waters are filled with fish.

Lys is protected by high walls and hired sellswords. A city dominated by wealth rather than by birth, Lys is where trade is considered a profession more honorable than arms. The city is known for its pillow houses and pleasure gardens. Lys is also known for it's temples.

More than anywhere else in the known world, the blood of Old Valyria still runs strong in the Lyseni, who are regarded as beautiful. Even the smallfolk in Lys have the pale skin, silver-gold hair, and purple, lilac, and pale blue eyes of the dragonlords of old. Many of the nobility in Lys have produced infamous beauties, and the Lysene nobility values the purity of their blood above all. Targaryen kings and princes are known to have looked at Lys for wives and paramours, for their blood as well as their beauty. The Lysene tongue is a corruption of High Valyrian.

Lys is ruled by conclaves of magisters, chosen from amongst the wealthiest and noblest men of the city, with the First Magister as the preeminent figure. The gonfaloniere is an elected military leader. Those among nobility and the wealthiest families are regarded by the smallfolk and the nobility as the princes and royalty of the City.

The great houses of Lys are: House Orthys, House Pendaerys, House Haen, House Dagareon, House Saan and House Vagnaron. House Rogere used to be among the great houses but after years of misfortunes and rebellions, the house was deposed by House Vagnaron and is now just a noble house. The great houses are known as the great six.

Pantera, Yndros of the Twilight, Bakkalon, Saagael, and R'hllor are some of the manifold deities of Lys. There is also the Weeping Lady of Lys, a goddess that protects the maidens in misfourtune and there is a love goddess, Venophrite, and she is wordshipped in the pleasure houses and is the goddess that blesses a marriage.

The people of Lys and the noble houses regard sex and pleasure houses as their big business aside sellswords and military companies.

𝐅𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐒𝐘 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐌𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐄𝐕𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐃 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒.

all sentences were taken from various scenarios related to arranged marriages mostly in the historical, fantasy or medieval setting. you can use them as base for starters or change place, pronouns as you see fit.

1. Arranged Marriages:

"You’ll be wed to him by sunset, whether you like it or not. The banners are already being stitched."

"Your union will bring peace to the realms. That’s all that matters now."

"I don't know him, Father. How am I to trust a man I've never met?"

"This marriage is a treaty, not a love match. Smile and seal the fate of our kingdom."

"The King has decreed it, and his word is law. You will marry the lord from the north."

2. Civil Marriages:

"It’s been agreed that we will marry, but it doesn’t mean we have to care for one another."

"Our union will be one of duty, not affection. I expect you to know your role."

"There will be no grand feast. Let us sign the papers, exchange vows, and be done with it."

"Marriage is a bond of power, not of the heart. We shall be civil, nothing more."

"Our marriage may not be one of love, but it will be a prosperous one."

3. Animosity Marriages:

"You think this marriage will bring me to heel? You’ll find I am not so easily tamed."

"Marry you? I would sooner take a blade to the throat than suffer beside you."

"I hate you as much as you hate me, but if it secures the throne, I’ll say the vows."

"This is no marriage, it's a prison, and you're the jailer."

"Forced to marry my enemy? I'd rather fight him on the battlefield than share his bed."

4. Marriages of Convenience:

"We both know what this is—a transaction. I expect no less than what we agreed upon."

"Our marriage will benefit us both. We need not speak of love, only power."

"Convenience. That’s all it is. We’ll play our roles and nothing more."

"It may not be what either of us wanted, but it is what we both need."

"A marriage of convenience is still a marriage. We shall gain what we desire and go our separate ways."

5. Secret Marriages:

"No one must know of this union. We can’t afford to let our enemies find out."

"By dawn, we’ll be wed in secret, and none will suspect what we've done."

"The gods have witnessed our vows, but no one else must."

"This marriage must remain hidden until the time is right."

"Our love must be kept in shadows. We cannot risk the kingdom’s wrath."

1. Shock:

"You’re marrying who? Surely, this must be some jest."

"No, I refuse to believe it! They wouldn't force me into this!"

"They have announced our marriage without even consulting me?"

"You mean to tell me my life has been decided with a mere letter?"

"Marriage? To him? I would rather be banished."

2. Calm Acceptance:

"I knew this day would come. There is no use fighting it now."

"So, this is to be my fate? Very well, I shall prepare for the wedding."

"It seems the council has made their choice. I suppose I’ll have to make mine."

"I always knew I wouldn’t marry for love. I’ll wear the crown, if that is what they wish."

"The marriage has been decided? Then let us move forward."

3. Dread:

"This can’t be happening. How could they bind me to someone so cruel?"

"I cannot—will not—marry them. Not after everything they've done."

"Marriage? To him? He’ll ruin me. He’ll ruin everything."

"How could they arrange this without my consent? I can’t do this."

"They cannot force me into this union. I will find a way out."

4. Surprise:

"A marriage? But I wasn’t even aware there were negotiations!"

"Married? To him? I thought they would never agree to it."

"Well, that was… unexpected. When is the ceremony?"

"The marriage has been arranged? I didn’t think anyone would ever want to wed me."

"I hadn’t anticipated a proposal, much less a marriage contract. How long have they been planning this?"

5. Reluctant Acceptance:

"If this is what must be done to keep the peace, then so be it."

"I never wanted this, but I’ll do my duty for the sake of the realm."

"Marriage was never my choice, but I will fulfill my obligations."

"It seems I have no say in the matter. I’ll prepare for the wedding."

"This is not the life I wanted, but if it is what the kingdom demands, I will marry."

6. Demaning the Marriage:

"You will marry him, or you’ll have no place in this house any longer." "I demand you fulfill your duty and marry the prince. It is for the good of the realm." "Your father’s last wish was for you to marry. You will honor it." "You’ll marry me, or I’ll see you cast out of every noble house in this kingdom." "The treaty demands this marriage, and so do I. You will not defy the crown." "I expect you to stand beside him at the altar. There is no other option." "Your marriage to her is the only thing that can save this alliance. You will do as you’re told." "Marry him, or the war will continue. This is your chance to stop the bloodshed." "You’ve been betrothed since childhood. Now, it’s time to fulfill that promise." "I demand you take her hand in marriage, or you will lose everything." "Marry me, or your family’s lands will be forfeit to the crown." "You have no choice. This marriage will happen, with or without your blessing." "The fate of your house depends on this marriage. You will not refuse." "You’ll marry him, or your title will be stripped from you." "Marry her, or the crown will consider it an act of treason." "This marriage is not a request—it’s a command." "You owe it to the family to marry her. The survival of our name depends on it." "There will be no further debate. You will marry him." "The council has decided, and you will marry. There is no escaping this." "This marriage has been arranged, and you will see it through." "You will wed her, or your family’s debts will never be forgiven." "Marry him, or you’ll be cast out of every noble circle in this land." "The marriage is necessary for the alliance. You will go through with it." "You’ll marry, or the consequences will be dire for your entire family." "This marriage isn’t just for you. It’s for the realm. You will marry."

7. Refusing the Marriage.

"I refuse to marry him. You can send me to the gallows, but I won’t say the vows." "You may have my life, but you will never have my hand in marriage." "I will not marry her. Not today, not ever." "I will die before I am bound to a man I despise." "I refuse to be a pawn in this marriage game." "This marriage is a mistake, and I will not be a part of it." "I cannot marry him. My heart belongs to another." "I will not be forced into a marriage I did not choose." "The crown may demand it, but I will not be forced into this union." "I will not marry her, no matter the consequences." "I’ll run away before I let them marry me to him." "You can’t force me into this. I refuse to marry him!" "The answer is no. I will not marry someone I do not love." "I cannot and will not marry him. No one can make me." "I will not be sold into a marriage like a piece of livestock." "My answer is final—I will not marry her." "This is not the life I wanted, and I will not marry him." "No amount of persuasion will force me into this marriage." "I will not be tied to a man who sees me as nothing more than a prize." "I refuse to be part of this political game. I won’t marry her." "You can threaten me all you like, but I will not marry him." "I will not marry for duty. I will marry for love, or not at all." "The marriage contract is torn. I will not wed him." "No force on earth will make me stand before an altar with him." "I will not be bound by chains of a marriage I did not choose."

8. Accepting or Warming up to Marriage:

"Perhaps this marriage isn’t such a terrible idea after all. It could bring more than just peace." "I’ve had time to think, and maybe… just maybe, this could work." "I never thought I’d say this, but I’m beginning to see the value in our union." "At first, I resisted, but now… the idea of marriage doesn’t seem so unbearable." "It may not have been my choice, but I’m starting to understand why it has to be this way." "The more I think on it, the more I realize that this marriage might actually be good for both of us." "I can’t deny that there’s strength in unity. Perhaps marriage is the best path forward." "I didn’t expect to say this, but I’m willing to give this marriage a chance." "I’ve come to terms with it. This marriage could bring something more than I first imagined." "I’ve fought it for so long, but maybe… it’s time to accept my fate." "You know, I think we could make this marriage work, if we’re both willing." "Strange, isn’t it? How the idea of marriage once repelled me, but now… it feels like the right course." "I used to hate the thought of it, but now I see there might be a future in this marriage." "I’m starting to believe that we can find happiness in this arrangement, even if it wasn’t love at first." "At first, I feared this union, but now… now I think we could build something real." "It wasn’t my first choice, but I’ve realized we might find more than just duty in this marriage." "I never thought I’d come around to the idea, but this marriage could bring more than just titles and lands." "I’ve had my doubts, but perhaps we can make this more than just an alliance." "If we’re both committed to this marriage, I believe we could find peace—and maybe something more." "I once thought I’d be miserable, but now I see… perhaps there’s hope for us after all." "We might not have chosen each other, but I think there’s a way forward in this marriage." "I didn’t expect to ever feel this way, but I’m beginning to look forward to our wedding." "Maybe this marriage was meant to be. There’s potential for more here than either of us anticipated." "I used to dread the idea of being married, but with you… maybe it won’t be so bad." "It seems strange to say, but I’m actually beginning to warm to the idea of being your spouse."

9. The wedding night.

"So… this is it, then? Our wedding night. Are you as nervous as I am?" "I know we’re bound by duty, but tonight… let’s forget everything else and just be ourselves." "Do you think we’ll remember this night with fondness? Or as just another part of our duty?" "I won’t pretend this isn’t strange, but… we’ve made it this far. Let’s take the rest one step at a time." "You don’t need to worry. Tonight will be whatever we choose it to be." "This is the part of marriage no one really talks about, isn’t it?" "There’s no rush. We’ve just the night and the rest of our lives ahead of us." "Are you sure you're comfortable with this? We can go slow if that’s what you prefer." "I’ve waited for this moment for so long, but now that it’s here… I don’t know where to begin." "There’s no need for fear. We’re in this together now, for better or worse." "I know you didn’t choose this marriage, but tonight… I hope we can find some common ground." "I never thought I’d say this, but I’m actually looking forward to this part of the wedding." "This night doesn’t have to be perfect. Just… ours." "I’ve been told what’s expected of us, but I’d rather we create our own expectations." "We’re alone now. No court, no family, just us. What do you want tonight to be?" "You look… beautiful. I know this isn’t easy, but I want you to know I’m here for you." "We’ve gone through the ceremony. Now comes the real challenge, doesn’t it?" "I hope you don’t expect too much from me tonight. I’ve never done this before." "No one ever told me how awkward a wedding night might be. Shall we just talk for a while?" "Tonight is about more than just obligation. I want this to mean something for both of us." "I’m not sure what happens next, but I’d like to figure it out together." "It’s just you and me now. No expectations, no pressure—just us." "Shall we make this night one to remember for something other than just duty?" "I know this is part of the marriage, but… I want you to know you have a choice in how it goes." "We can take our time. This night is ours, and no one else’s."

@unbeleveable asked: Don't touch me. Don't you fucking dare. / Rhaenys for Otto

For  a  moment,  the  Hand  of  the  King  simply  regarded  her.  Age  had  taught  him  many  things,  chief  among  them  that  anger  was  rarely  improved  by  answering  it  with  more  of  the  same. His  hand  withdrew  slowly.  The  faintest  tightening  of  his  jaw  was  the  only  sign  that  her  words  had  landed  as  intended. "Very  well,  Princess,"  Otto  said.  His  voice  remained  measured,  almost  calm.  He  clasped  his  hands  behind  his  back  instead,  creating  the  distance  she  had  demanded.  His  eyes  lingered  on  her  face,  studying  her  as  he  had  studied  lords,  kings,  and  rivals  for  decades. 

Rhaenys  Targaryen  had  always  possessed  the  same  iron  will  that  had  made  so  many  fear  what  sort  of  queen  she  might  have  become.  "But  I  would  advise  you  to  temper  your  fury."  The  old  man  tilted  his  head  slightly.  "The  realm  has  little  use  for  wounded  pride,  and  less  for  threats  spoken  in  haste.  You  may  curse  my  name  if  it  pleases  you.  Many  have.  Yet  neither  your  anger  nor  mine  will  change  what  has  already  been  set  in  motion."  His  expression  hardened  a  fraction.

[houseseats]

It  had  been  a  couple  of  confusing  years  for  the  young  child.  Somewhere  along  the  lines,  there  had  been  fire  and  smoke,  a  battle,  the  sight  of  his  brother  Aegon  flying  on  an  injured  Stormcloud  back  home  and  then.  .  .he  had  been  made  to  stay  in  Lys.  For  all  of  it,  he  had  been  treated  nicely,  but  he  knew  better  than  to  trust  most  of  the  people  there.  They  allowed  him  to  keep  the  dragon  egg  that  never  hatched  and  toys  he  had,  even  if  by  now,  he  had  outgrown  them.  He  heard  news  that  his  mother  had  taken  King's  Landing  and  that  meant,  the  war  was  over.  So  he  thinks.  Viserys  isn't  entirely  sure  of  it  until  he  is  put  back  on  a  boat  and  send  back  home.  It's  the  familiar  roar  of  Caraxes  that  brings  him  back  to  reality.  That  high  pitch  croach,  so  unique  to  his  father's  dragon  that  he  can't  help  but  perk  up,  almost  too  eager  to  be  let  off  the  boat  when  they  make  harbor  and  he  witness  the  flags  of  his  house  flaming  and  his  father  on  sight. 

He  doesn't  cry,  not  yet,  because  it's  not  the  moment.  Viserys  shows  himself  poise  as  a  prince  would  do,  but  the  eagerness  in  his  step  and  eyes  betray  him.  He  had  grown  taller,  but  still,  in  his  eyes,  his  father  always  looked  taller;  regal,  threatening.  Though  that  was  to  others  and  never  him.  Somehow  he  is  allowed  to  march  forward  and  finally,  he  looks  up  to  the  familiar  lines  of  his  father's  eyes.  "You  got  wrinkles  in  your  eyes,  kepa."  But  it's  the  only  awkward  thing  he  can  muster  before  he  stops  acting  so  regal  and  wraps  his  arms  around  his  father's  middle,  buried  his  face  in,  as  if  he  could  merge  with  him  and  never  feel  threaten  and  alone  again.  "Are  we  going  home  now?"  His  voice  comes  a  little  choked  up,  more  than  he  intends,  but  he  thnks  he  can  be  forgiven,  for  he  is  still  a  child,  even  if  war  forced  him  to  become  stronger. @kepyrys reunion with little vis.
