He used to think that he wanted to be good,
he wanted to be kind,
he wanted to be brave and wise,
but it was all pretty difficult.
He wanted to be loved, too,
if he could fit it in.
{ bethany antonia + seven and twenty + female + she/her } welcome to westeros CASSANDRA of HOUSE MOOTON + MAIDENPOOL! it is quite well known that they are HONEST and DARING, though behind closed doors the people whisper that they are also DREAMY and INSECURE. whenever i think of them, i am reminded of white curls cascading over dark shoulders, the juxtaposition of always being less yet constantly wanting more, head in the storm clouds dripping rain into peaceful rivers, ribbons of red and gowns of ivory clamping shut around a heart that tries to beat its way out of its cage, dark brown eyes sparkling with the reflection of the moon. may they prove their worth in the game of thrones.

Lord Jon and Lady Aelinor Mooton were practical people with ambitious dreams who sought to raise practical, ambitious, disciplined children. With their third, they failed in that regard.
Comments on Cassandra's shock of white hair, growing longer and steadier since she had been a babe, had been commonplace during her childhood. Notices of her odd behavior were even more typical. This displeased everyone within House Mooton.
Ever since she had been a child, Sandra was a girl lost in dreams. She loved an elaborate story, a long day sitting next to the river watching as the water passed her by, a little dance to music that only played in her head.
She had a good heart, but not the nice words to follow it. She was taught courteousness, but her words came out honest, unfiltered. She had been taught grace, but her actions were clumsy, uncontrolled. While another individual might have had the sort of self esteem required to to handle an out-of-placeness within the world, Cassandra had could muster up none. On the contrary, she toiled and troubled, spending hours trying to get her embroidery right, days memorizing what she could of every house so as to know what to say to any visiting lords.
At seven-and-ten, when her lord father had been sent for to become master of whispers for the crown, her lady mother had considered suggesting her as a lady in waiting to one of the princesses. The thought was immediately discarded, for fear of the embarrassment she might unwittingly bring onto her family.
She dreams of love and adventure, of seeing the world and exchanging conversation between hearts, but that wish holds half the power of her as her absolute need to make her parents proud.
Now at seven-and-twenty, well past a woman grown, Cassandra has the chance to redeem the follies of her youth. She is a lady-in-waiting to her cousin the queen, a blood relative with the queen's best interest at heart to support her and defend her against the barrage of snakes within court that would wish to take advantage of her.
