STARTER for aerion / @brightflme ft. kiera of tyrosh

‘aerion’ the name is spoken with reserved cordiality, a tone more accustomed to being used towards acquaintances than kin by marriage. the fact that they are indeed kin is an unfortunate consequence of her marriage and one that bodes ill to dwell upon. she had thought to give aerion the benefit of the doubt by initially choosing to believe that many of the whispers about his character were nothing more than the typical rumors so gladly spun about those in positions of prominence. for once, however, it could indeed be said that rumors spoke true. it was not to be expected that she have a warm relationship with all valarr’s kin but she thought it likely that she would never see aerion as more than an acquaintance of circumstance.

‘enjoying the tourney?’ such little imagination is required to guess his answer but she asks the question just the same since the subject of the tourney and all its accompanying excitements seems the safest subject of conversation. ‘i heard it mentioned that you have had armor commissioned just for the occasion?’ no doubt he’s had artisans craft something of ridiculous extravagance. that it is the man beneath the armor rather than the metal itself that truly matters might be a point worth making but she has no desire to cast herself into a debate that she is unlikely to win.

✯ A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE SENTENCES — accepting!

WARM FELT LIKE AN UNDERSTATEMENT. Hot would've been a better choice, well for her at least. It wasn't necessarily every day one would find themselves in the company of someone like Aerion and Ayldri was trying to piece together what he could've meant by that. She was walking through the meadow with him, grass brushing along the hem of the dress she despised with every fiber of her being.

Attending social events weren't as fun as people made them out to be, let alone some name day of a girl she barely knew. Her family had been asked to attend for a reason she couldn't remember and it turns out so did his, either that or they had no choice but to go. For some reason, she was under the impression it was the latter and not the former.

"A good day to avoid everyone, I hope." Was it easy to tell how much she could find a multitude of reasons to excuse herself from every conversation possible? Aerion was the exception it seemed. She had asked him previously what they were out here for but she fears that question intentionally went unanswered to keep the suspense for just a while longer.

It's not like they were too far from everything. She could see the various tents from here. To no surprise, the Targaryen's had caught her attention first, then came her own family's banner, the tent specifically designed for her brother because like every prince and knight, he too, was here to unhorse egos and bring attention to their House.
