It's nothing but flirtations, drinking, and carousing. I guess that's what you expect from a King's court, but I don't think it's suitable for a woman with children."

She said with a slight edge to her voice. "Wold you expect the king's own wife to shun the Court?"

But then, apparently Queen Morgan can refrain from undressing publicly," Jon growled and went silent.

Joanna sighed; this was a side of her husband she had not seen before and she didn't know how to deal with him.

"If it makes you feel better, go ahead. I know that whatever transpired between you woudl be irrelevant because you love me. I will love you regardless, the same as I have for all these years."

She paused and looked him square in the eye.

"Would it make you feel better?"

What would make me feel better is having my wife at home, spending time with her daughters, and not scheming for dragons," Jon said with a frown, "can you do that?"

"I will stay," she said. "Because I love you, and I hate to see you so unhappy with me. Please, Jon, don't sit there so quietly. It unnerves me."

She blinked.

"My place at Court is important to me but your place in my heart is unique."

She paused and blinked again.

"I don't think I can bear it if you are angry with me."

She went to him at once and rested her head against his chest the moment she was in his arms. For a moment she was content simply to sit there then she said "This feels good. I missed you. The girls missed you too. We should do something special with them, as a family. Maybe visit Mother in the Eyrie."

Tytos: I know this is distasteful, but I've been invited to a new RP on a Discord server, discord.gg/xnjMU it's gonna be a little more casual than these forums, no combat system and more player-driven Jan 23, 2017 22:07:20 GMT -5
