"Yes, no doubt. But he's looking for his own bride as well. He'll want to put his own choice first, I expect," Izzy remarked. "You're almost as good a match as he is, after all."
She glanced at Jennalyn.
"What do you think, Jenn? May I call you Jenn, it's so much more informal! Shall Gareth make some woman a lovely husband?"

Jennalynn had grown quiet and only listened to the two siblings discuss their future husband and wife. As Izzy asked her for her opinion, Jennalynn nibbled on a piece of lemoncake, so it took her a while and a sip of tea before she answered.
"I guess that is fine, that's what my family calls me, but why shouldn't my friends as well? At least in the comfort of their own home." She said with a smile, before growing a bit uncomfortable by the direct question concerning Ser Gareth, but answered with a small smile. "As to your brother's future as a husband, I'll stand by my previous statement that he'll make a fine husband"

Gareth flashed a smile, teeth showing very white against his sun-tanned face.
"Well I thank you for the compliment, Lady Jennalynn. Let us hope the ladies of Kings Landing share your assessment."

"Yes, let us hope that indeed," said Izzy. "Although, there aren't as many suitable prospects about as we'd like." She sighed. "Let us hope that matters improve in that regard."

"I'm happy to wait for the right lady." replied Gareth. "I'm sure our mother has an extensive list already."

"Very likely," Izzy murmured. "Mother likes to plan marriages. It's one of her favourite things in recent years. It would be a shame to deprive her of that joy."

OOC - this scene takes place several days after the other one
Gwayne leads Lyelle to his house on Aegon's Hill, and escorts her inside and to his sister's chamber. Izzy is not present yet.
"Would you like a bath?" He asked. "I could have the servants draw one for you, and then hopefully I can find my sister to help you where I cannot."

"Please, My lord, dont leave me." Lyelle said, her look was full of fear even in this safe place. It was clear that not many men outside her family had been as nice to her.

"I won't leave you for long," he said. "I just need to find my sister, and get the servants to draw a bath if you'd like one. I'll be right in the next room, I promise. But it would not be proper for me to see you naked, would it?"

She shook her head and dropped her gaze once again.
"Im sorry." She murmured.

"It won't be for long. You need not bathe if you'd rather not, but perhaps it will make you feel better. But my sister will be able to help you, and you can come see me after you're dressed again," he offered. "I'll have food brought for us."

Keeping her eyes on the floor she nodded.
"I do not mean to be trouble." She said.

"You are not," he said. "I merely wish you to be comfortable, my lady. I would like to see you rested and happy again before I escort you home."

Lyelle looked up at him through her still teary lashes and gave him another smile.
"You are a true knight." She said.

"Thank you. I always strive to be," he said. "Please, have a seat and I will send my sister presently."

Hope you all are well and happy.
