I love receiving letters,
but I think this boy will be the death of me.
āYouāre receiving letters from a boy, Mya? Who?ā
Just, um, a couple of smiths Iām friends with back in Kingās Landing. You wouldnāt believe the trouble they get into when Iām not around.
I love receiving letters,
but I think this boy will be the death of me.
āTry getting them from five little brothers all upset at either each other or something thatās terribly insignificant.ā
I can beat you on that one. Eight little brothers and seven little sisters, and a third of them all in Kingās Landing, Gods bless them. Ā They get into a lot more trouble when Iām not around to scold them.
I love receiving letters,
but I think this boy will be the death of me.
I spent half my life sewing for your wife and the like. If I have a home anywhere itās that city. But while youāre in it you donāt realize the filth and disgust that fills the place, and I donāt mean flea bottom.Ā
But in any case, I had a family issue, Iām on a royally sanctioned vacation, and I have no need to rush back.
Ah, so you must be the royal seamstress then? Mya Baratheon? I thought you looked familiar.
Well, since you spent most of your life here, I expect youād know about it than I would. I suppose we shall see if my opinions change once Iām settled in my home again.
I really prefer just Mya, Ser.Ā
Iāve heard the North is beautiful at this season. I canāt imagine youād be upset to go home.
Thereās a word that I donāt use anymore. I loved a man once, and he used me and left me. I loved another, and he went off to fight the Kingās War, and he died. I donāt use the word love anymore because all it does it set your heart up to be broken, but the Seven be damned if I donāt want to, and if I donāt want to say it about Quentyn Martell and his wonderful little girl. And heās gone, and he still sends me letters, and I donāt know what the hell Iām to do with that. Especially when Roslin Thorne, my old friend Roslin Thorne, seems to haveā¦filled a hole in their lives I couldnāt.
He tentatively reaches over, pouring her wine into another glass before resting his hand atop hers and squeezing.Ā
I canāt imagine how much it hurts, Mya. Iā¦.I canāt say I look upon Quentyn Martell with the same fondness you do, but if it hurts you so that heās acting in this way, then you have my full sympathies and you know that. And, wellā¦..Iād say sheās the one being filled, clearly.
Well thatās the other thing, isnāt it? It doesnāt matter who he spends his time with. You and I always forget I knew them when they were betrothed. And Iām not Rhaella Targaryen, so Iāll never be what he wants.Ā
pff -- ORYS! *laughing* You cannot say that!!
Mate, Iām going to let you in on a secret they keep very closely guarded around here, yeah? You see, they make you feel like youāll miss Kingās Landing if you ever leave, and that itās so wonderful a place that youāll always yearn for it. But as soon as you actually get out? Youāll never want back in. Take it from experience.
I take it you donāt have the fondest memories of this place, then?

Sorry, do come in.
Good evening, little brother. Iām feeling sorry about myself today. *pulling two bottles of Dornish Red out of her sleeves* So I hope you donāt have anything important in the morning because I need to drink.
Only a meeting with a Volantine trade ambassador, Mya, so I might pass on the wine, if you donāt mind. But feel free to drink.
Oh, come. At least nurse a glass so I look less pathetic. *drinking straight from the first bottle* Now hereās my issue, see? Because I was talking to that stablemaster you brought in, the one with the great hair. Thorne. And I was telling a story about something Quentyn and I had done in Kingās Landing a couple years back, right? And you want to know what this Thorne kid tells me? His sister? Roslin Thorne, you know her? Apparently she visits the Tor constantly these days. Spends weeks there at a time, is practically a second mother to Mellario.
Isnāt that just fucking marvelous for her, Orys?
Sorry, do come in.

āā¦Of course, I shall miss Kingās Landing. I have spent the better part of two years here, after all, but it shall be nice to return home.ā

Mya Baratheon | 29 | Unmarried | TAKEN | Kate Bracken
Mya Stone is the oldest bastard daughter of Robert Baratheon and a whore from the Vale. Mya spent the first few years of her childhood in the brothel but Robert was able to procure her a position in the keep at Eyrie when she was seven years old. Robert made sure his daughter was educated and she learned how to read and be a proper lady. At one point, Mya believed she was going to marry Ser Mychel Redfort and she believed that she was in love with him. After he married another, she wrote her father and asked that she be able to join him in Stormās End. Robert brought Mya home to work in the keep and to learn beside his children but Marie would not stand for it and demanded that Mya be sent elsewhere. Robert was able to find his daughter employment in the Red Keep with the help of Eddard Stark and she became an apprentice to the royal seamstress.
Robert visited Mya quite often as a child until he was married, then his visits became more sporadic. They had an affectionate relationship before his death and Mya sent her father ravens frequently and Robert sent her coins and presents when he could. Mya has gone out of her way to earn her fatherās favor, learning archery although she much prefers to read or sew in the gardens. She has no relationship with her mother and has not been in contact with her since she left the brothel. Mya, like her father, is quick for a joke and her charm is known to turn her enemies into friends within minutes. She is a woman scorned and tends to throw herself into her work then to focus on the men, unlike most of the servant girls in the castle. Most people in the castle know that she is Robert Baratheonās bastard daughter and she does not bother to hide it, proud of her Baratheon heritage and her father.
When the war broke out, Robert took her from the capital back to Stormās End with him, despite Marieās protests. With the war being against the crown, the capital was a dangerous place. To make up for the discomfort cause to Marie, Mya continued to sew dressed and other things while she was in Stormās End and did whatever Marie asked of her While she didnāt outright care what Marie thought, she didnāt want to be on the womanās bad side.
When the war ended, Mya returned to the capital. Robert told her she was welcome to stay in Stormās End, but Mya was uncomfortable under Marieās watchful eye and felt much better in Kingās Landing.
When the War against the Others was announced, Mya was somewhat concerned about her fatherās well-being, but within months she heard that he had returned to Stormās End and had survived, though he had been injured. She worried for him when he became bedridden due to illness as well and we worries were well founded, as he died long later, but only after making it clear that he wanted Mya to be legitimized as a Baratheon, to which King Aegon made happen.
Her legitimizationāand her long time apprenticeship ship with the Royal Seamstressāgave way to her taking over the position when the previous one stepped down. Even so, she decided to leave the city for a time and visit her half-brother Orys, now Lord of the Stormlands, and his wife and children. Her intention was partially to celebrate her legitimization with all her siblings, but also to get out of town and clear her head.Ā
During her time in the capital, she had a close relationship with Quentyn Martell, but it almost seemed as if he were playing with her, as when he returned to Dorne, he had no interested in taking her with him. Though heartbroken, she has a tiny shred of hope, and still sends him letters sometimes.Ā
bastardmyastone:
That defeats the entire purpose. Why would I want to talk to them? Many beautiful men become hideous when they open their mouths. No, Iād just like to sit and watch. Look at that one with the black hair, see the one in the corner? Quentyn Martell. I could watch him fight all day, but we havenāt talked in months.
āItās true that many beautiful men become hideous when they begin speaking, but itās not too hard of a matter of getting them to shut them again, even if it means using what the gods have given us. Quentyn Martell? Youāre smitten with a Martell? How absolutely precious.ā
Pause. There is a far cry between thinking someone is pleasing to the eyes and being "smitten." There are plenty more who look great on the training field. Arys Oakheart, who is so sweet off the field too. Ooh, or Monford Velaryon. I mean, word is he's not the best of men but have you seen him shirtless? They're just not out today. Usually the girls from the kitchen and I come out together, but they were busy today.
Yes, well, I don't waste my time with men like that, especially not in a way that could tarnish what little honor I have. But I suppose some people can afford not to care about such things.
bastardmyastone:
Iām from the mountains, Iām not used to this. I think I may melt before summerās end.
Well, I canāt say I have ever been to the northern mountains. Even the mountains are warm in Dorne. Have you ever been there, my lady?
Not quite North, just the Vale. No, I've not been much farther south than Storm's End, though I'm accustomed to working with Dornish silk.
