Parents' Weekend Brunch, Sunday Morning to Afternoon, The Park

[iwishiwasbig.livejournal.com]

As was traditional, the start of the end of Parents' Weekend featured plenty of food, benches, chairs, and coffee in the park. After all, the Student Council couldn't let the parents be weirded out one last time without a feast.

The sky was a little overcast, but the temperatures were still above normal, which was a lucky break for the final day of the weekend.

So much tantalizing information in that reveal. A widowed queen, fighting a war. And what he could see of her face intrigued him, as well, on baser levels.

"I have no army," Cesare stated. "Only myself, and a loyal assassin. If your interests lie with my sister's, then you may borrow such skills as I possess. If they do not, then the consequences of such a betrayal would be dire."

It was not wise to threaten a queen, but he wished to make it clear that he was no fool. He would reveal his name, but if she gave him cause to regret it, then she would feel such fury as she could not imagine turned back upon her, queen or no queen.

"Cesare Borgia," he said. "Subterfuge, I have, though kindness, perhaps not. My motives are perhaps ulterior."

Dany's smile was quick. "I know your sister Lucrezia, my lord Cesare. She is a delight, and her interests seem to mirror my own. There are so few women with political savvy." As she spoke, she stepped into the shadow of his tree, obscuring her entirely from the Lannisters, should either glance over.

And once she was in shadow, she lowered her hood, and out fell a wave of silver-blonde hair held in place with braids, and Viserion and Drogon looked around eagerly. "Daenerys, of the House Targaryen," she offered quietly, her smile as proud and small as the rest of her. "Queen of the Andals and the Rhoynar and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, Protector of the Realm, and Khaleesi of the Dothraki."

It seemed fitting to offer her full title, even if she knew it wasn't written on the scrolls yet. She'd heard Viserys recite it enough times.

She was exquisite. He should be careful of such matters; his heart was still quite damaged from a Lady who would prefer to be a nun, but there was no crime in appreciating beauty. Danger, perhaps, but when one lived in Rome, all was danger.

Cesare lowered himself to one knee, as seemed fitting when presented with royalty.

"I have no titles," he said, "but Cardinal of Valencia, a collar which I wear with the greatest of reluctance. How, fair lady, should a Cardinal address a Queen?"

"Most call me Dany," she said, reaching down to tilt up his chin. It was forward, but she hardly cared when she was presented with a man kneeling before her. "Please rise, my dear Cardinal Cesare. I am not your queen, and I refuse your sister's formalities as well. Though I admit that since I am entirely ignorant as to what a cardinal might be, you may well outrank me, anyway."
