@hexfist, starter call. / westeros has been much unlike the world she has ever known. men are vile and do cruel things, there as much as in power here as they are at home. it oft has jasmine wondering what would the be like with a queen on the throne. the world would likely be a more pleasant place ... or so, she wants to believe.

but despite her first impression of this new land, she's grateful to have at least found someone who defies the world the way she wishes to. they say men should be knights and wield swords, and yet vi has ambitions for both. ❝ if i ever return home and have the honor of claiming my place as my father's heir ... perhaps you could be part of my queensguard. ❞ jasmine keeps her gaze straight ahead, overlooking the scenery from these stepstones leading to the city. it's easier to speak without searching for rejection from the other's expression. ❝ agrabah is different from king's landing. but it feels like home. ❞

@realmsrogue, starter call. / a dragon was sighted flying around her homeland and then she hears word (the servants around the castle really do like to gossip!) of a man calling himself a prince getting boisterous and drunk in the city. naturally, she had to see this for herself. disguised as a commoner, jasmine slipped from the castle and followed a familiar path she's taken many times before when she needed an escape from suffocating walls. jasmine slips into the tavern and it takes little observing to locate the foreigner. silver white hair, a dragon sigil on the front of his clothes. targaryen. but she's not seen one of them in her homeland. crossing the threshold, she maneuvers around her people until she's taken a seat across from the stranger.

❝ you do know, it's considered ill-mannered to visit a realm already governed by a king without greeting them? ❞ jasmine stares the other down, hesitantly removing the hood of her cloak, chancing stares her way and whispers of ‘isn’t that the princess?'  ❝ one might think a prince from a foreign land is planning to usurp the crown. ❞

what a terrible fate to be a princess in a man's world. she's well read and spoken, she knows the people and shows them care and compassion. and yet – princess jasmine is relentlessly reminded by her father than one day she must wed another who will be sultan over agrabah. she's long since given up arguing that she should lead, that she doesn't need a man by her side to do so. but such is the way in agrabah. thousands of years of tradition will uphold despite her pleads.

but as stubborn as her father may be, she is equally, if not more, stubborn. just as she starts to feel secure and as though her insistence is chipping away at her father's resolve, his entire demeanor changes. he whispers war upon neighbors, increasing prices on spices, that she must wed jafar and end her stubborn streak. but she is not blind to the grand vizier who has whispered his poison within her father's ear.

an attempt to break her father out of whatever evil magic he's spelled under leads jasmine with a difficult decision: fight the foe alone, knowing he holds control of her people so long as her father is poisoned with madness. or run away from the home she knows in an attempt to find allies to bring jafar's reign of madness to an end.

located between the summer sea and residing along the cinnamon straits, agrabah is a large city on the island of vahar wealthy from its heavy involvement in the spice trade. agrabah is a free city, led by a peaceful sultan hamed and his right hand, the grand vizier jafar. agrabah recognizes a patriarchal society and with only a female for an heir, hamed is hopeful to wed his daughter jasmine to a man of wealth to ensure agrabah remains a thriving society.

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON: TEAM BLACK EDITION. a collection of random dialogue spoken team black. some nsfw themes and strong language ahead. change verbiage and pronouns as needed.

you created me, __, yet now you are set on destroying me.

ten years you've been king, and yet not once have you asked me to be your hand!

history does not remember blood, it remembers names!

so let us be good sons and please those who love us so they may forget what we lack.

well then, let us raise an army of bastards.

leave me again at your peril.

you cannot lead if you do not inspire.

killing her would be easier.

you have your honor. and i have mine.

and to whom are you sworn?

exhausting, wasn’t it? hiding under the cloak of your own righteousness.

i will not fight you. i came here as an envoy, not a knight.

men would rather set the realm ablaze than see a woman ascend the iron throne.

the gods give, just as the gods take.

the incorruptible queen sullies herself with a lover.

i can have a message brought to her. in secret.

i recognize no authority but the kings's.

when i am queen, i will create a new order.

a king should honor the traditons of his forbears.

and the usupring of my rightful inheritance?

i gave up the idea of wearing a crown a generation ago.

i'd rather serve as a knight and ride to battle to glory.

your worth is not given. it must be earned.

for men, marriage might be a political arrangement. for women, it is like to be a death sentence.

there's something wrong with me. someone poisoned me. the food, the wine. or else it's this swamp air, or...

there's been a mistake.

i have come to see if we may uncover some path towards peace.

we don't choose our destiny. it chooses us.

terrible lack of respect.

you can play the jester if you wish, but hold your tongue before my betrothed.

you are the dragon. your word is truth and law.

mayhaps the gods have scorned us.

i'm the lord of __, it means everyone's dead.

if you wish to be restored to heir, you'll need to kill me.

we have always been meant to burn together.

shall you cast your son down and rule alone?

to elude a storm, you can either sail into it, or around it. but you must never await its coming.

have you never imagined yourself on the iron throne?

i will be a stranger when we meet again.

by naming me heir, you divided the realm. i thought i wanted it. but the burden is a heavy one. 

i am not like you. i am not so...perfect.

has anybody ever told you you're nearly as pretty as your brother?

i do not wish to reign over a kingdom of ash and bone.

dreams didn't make us kings. dragons did.

i'm queen __ now. and you are all traitors to the realm.

what is this brief mortal life if not the pursuit of legacy?

why have you come here?

i saw that we cannot withstand it... and yet somehow we must.
