Perhaps it's not fear of your wildness, but misguided consideration and respect for your name and your sex?

In that case, you should show them, rather than play by the lines they've drawn for you.

so long, captcha! \o/

[hurnyntus]

Highly misguided, if that is indeed the case.

Find someone else to train me, you mean? I hear the Dornish style of swordplay is quite beautiful — perhaps I should send word south looking for a master of arms.

( A little tongue in cheek, perhaps, considering Dorne’s history with the Targaryens, but there’s also a very good chance that she’s genuinely considering it! )

\o/!!!

I do think they would have an easier time of treating you as the student you wish to be, although I'd feel much better if you let me watch your lessons - at least the first few.

[ not that House Tyrell has the best relationship with Dorne either, but that's neither here nor there. ]

What if your family opposes?

[hurnyntus]

Do you imagine me less likely to come to harm under your watchful eye?

( An amusing thought, but one that’s pleasing all the same. )

Any opposition will be swiftly forgotten, if indeed they notice it at all. My father’s attention wanders with his moods, and Rhaenyra has more pressing matters to which she must attend.

You jest, my lady, but I would be remiss if I couldn't at least serve you practically in some small way.

As a friend, especially, if your family truly does not take notice.

[hurnyntus]

Then we are at an impasse, as I would not have any true friendship be viewed as some form of servitude.

If we are to be friends, then it must be only because it pleases you. Does it?

[versigny]

It does, my lady. I believe we understand each other more than most would.

And I must admit that I've been longing to ask if you'd like to go hawking with me sometime.
