looking upon the roast leg, alys could not conjure an appetite.
earlier, alysanne had rubbed her skin to point of pimpling, wanting to resemble a raw chicken in a waterbath moments before being seasoned and cooked. even once she'd reach the point of pink skin growing irritated and red, the baratheon insisted that the servant burn her the dress she'd worn to the boat races - declaring that no amount of scrubbing could get the misery of a brothel out of it threads. alys was hardly distraught to see the yet another red number meet its fate.
around them, the food hall surges with stories. young ladies and old lords sharing where they had been when the boats caught fire and where they had rested their head during the days they'd been undersiege. only some dare to voice their outrage at a lady lost. alys' own chest ached for the woman. an almost sister, a dear friend to her brother, someone who believed in their cause. this was a severe loss.
"we need something to wash this down," alys declares with an exhale. steady hands press against the table's grain, willing herself to cure her anxiety, trying to soothe the tension growing between her shoulders. "will you drink with me?"
