Jon Templeton wrote:Ser Jon rode out to meet Aerion at midfield. His shield arm hung low and limp from the accumulated blows. If one were to pay close attention they'd see blood dripping from Jon's left gauntlet.

With his right hand Jon removed his helm to reveal a face covered in sweat. He smiled but there was obvious pain behind the smile, "You found me out. My plan all along was to bankrupt Lord Drakeson through tourney lance expenditures." Jon managed a weak laugh, "No if you'll excuse me I need to see a maester. I think a mountain landed on my arm."

- You need to make the mandatory roll, walking up and knocking on the front door is destiny substitution territory.
- Stealth - everyone needs to do it, but if something wackier (like, say, the above) is being attempted I'll allow assist/coordinate instead.]

If all six of this merry band of men decide to come, have I got a wacky thread for you.

This is going to be like the Dragon Age: Origins prison break scenes, isn't it...

Should I be excited about this or dreading it?

He paused for a long moment and took a sip of his wine.  "As I toured Blackbuckle, I happened upon a boy lying just off the street in an alley, his arms wrapped around the neck of a dog.  I am not sure who died first, but likely both knew they were dying and refused to leave each others side until the end, giving each other what comfort they could.  The Stranger does not frighten me, Ser Theomore.  I have seen as much death as any, probably more than most other than a war veteran.  This was different.  This was... insulting.  It was despicable.  The boy and his dog had lain there for weeks while Lord Bracken drank wine in his castle or went hunting.  I will not be so ungenerous as to hold Lord Bracken up as an example of the nobility, there are many like Lord Tullison or Lady Marsten that genuinely care for their people.  However, if Lord Bracken is the exception, so are they, and most nobles are closer to one end of the spectrum than the other."

Baelon Drakeson wrote:The progenitor to that thread was for purely unrelated reasons, too - I wanted to meet with Derron to try and smooth things out between Drakeson and Longshore, and if things worked out maybe hire some mercs.

Three birds, one stone. Or throwing axe, in this case.

Grab, then punch them to death.
