I wouldn't, no. I'm not asking you to forgive Aemond.
I just know there's nothing you can do about it here. Revenge would be reversed in a couple weeks. Your war can't be settled here, and nobody here outside your family cares about it.
No offense, I just mean, we're all a world away, we don't have a stake, and who your father is has nothing to do with how anyone here sees you. I used to be afraid of people finding out who I really was too. But here, I don't have to be.
(it is not only Aemond, he wishes to reply. until Luke's death, there was no reason to find his uncle to be nothing more but an overconfident asshole, though a skilled warrior and dragonrider all the same. he does not say it. after all, despite it all he is trying to hold up a truce. )It is not the issue of my sire that worries me. Even here.
But let us talk of things that do not concern my realm, then.
[ Then what does? He doesn't ask, though he wishes to. His alliance with Aemond isn't so far in the rear view that he expects to be trusted with that. ]
Hawk's birthday is soon. February 2nd.
I was wondering if you would want to join us for a little bit.
I wish for Hawk to have a good time for his birthday. Nameday. He likes trying new things, and we've never done it either. So, since you're attractive and respectful and he already likes you, I thought you'd be the one to invite.
That feels like flattery.( He hope the teasing tone he intends to shine through is one Tim can pick up on. )
But if you have not done this either, it is an honor that you would share this. I would be happy to join the two of you for his nameday. If I change my mind, you will be first to know.

Do you mean to surprise him?

Date: 2025-01-22 07:26 am (UTC)...well. I've never with Hawk, I mean.
No, it's not a surprise. I wouldn't invite someone into our bed without asking him first.
