The Lord Commander's Office

[mel]

Alester and Jared were standing outside Lord Commander Mudd's Office, waiting to be admitted.

Gorben walks up to the two. He's chewing a piece of bread, "You two waiting to see Muddy."

[facelessmaester]

Alester turned and looked at his guide here, or if one stretched it far his first friend in the watch.

"Yes, I've been asking to see him since I first gave here, but now it looks like he's available. I haven't seen your sorry ass since we came here, where has he put you, down in the cellar?"

[melon]

"Na they told me off for leaving without tell the commander of Eastwatch then told me to get my ass on top of the Wall. Were too short of men to care about offences."

[facelessmaester]

"I know the feeling, Morden has made it his personal goal to make me freeze to death before I see the Commander" Alester smiled "But I'm as close to a Other he'll ever meet. Cold is in my blood"

[melon]

"Lucky you. When I get cold I like to enjoy a nice warm woman." Gorben smiles at the thought.

[mel]

"I'm not sure we've meet it's a bit confusing with all of us wearing black. I'm Jared Snow" he said to Gorben "though Alester has told me a bit of your jolly travel here from Eastwatch. Sorry I missed that pissing contest. Are you here to see the Lord Commander as well?"

[melon]

"Yea I got to talk to Old Muddy about traveling back to Eastwatch or staying here."

[The Smith]

Lord Commander Mudd walks by the men and into his office, leaving the door open behind himself.

[melon]

"Well I think the Lordly one should go first." He shoulders Alester forward.

[facelessmaester]

Alester nodded and made his way into the commander's office. When he came in there, he placed himself to the right, leaving place for both Jared and Gorben to enter also.

[melon]

Gorben wanders up and takes a seat on a couch.

[mel]

Jared follows his brothers in and decides to stand next to a window, facing the Wall.

[facelessmaester]

Alester bowed.

"Lord Commander Mudd. I've been trying to meet with you for some time now. I know that I'm not here to be cuddled with, but some respect could have been shown to a Lord that has not taken his oaths yet. I can be helpful to the Watch when I return south or there can be a shortage of men during the next year."

He didn't care that Gorben and Jared learnt the truth of him still being a lord.

[The Smith]

Mudd laughed, "If you want respect Lordling, go south. I have important duties, and I would not care if the King and the Queen Mother were here to give me a thousand Gold Dragons and a lively dance. Exept I could buy several suits of armor with that coin, and hire some workmen to help work on the New Gift Road."

Bringing his eyes back to his men he asks, "Do you have a better reason for being here then complaining, because otherwise you brothers will pay."
