[rezni]

Have you sought out the name assigned to you, Alicent?

[lambencies]

No. It is the name of someone I could never even think of harming.

[ she wouldn't even be able to manage it physically. ]

[rezni]

Someone dear to you?

[lambencies]

A friend.

[ "a friend". ]

[rezni]

I see.

Alicent, should circumstances require it, permit me to make the attempt for you. I would be of help to you in this.

[lambencies]

No, Nikolai.

I will tell you the same thing I said to Aemond: I will not allow it.

[rezni]

Will you never permit me to assist you, Alicent?

[lambencies]

Not in a murder, never.

[rezni]

I don't wish to argue with you. Only to express to you that I wish to offer you my help. In this, or anything else that troubles you.

It isn't easy here for any of us, and it grows more difficult when we're alone, I think.

[lambencies]

I have my sons here.

[ she corrects him, but it's half-hearted at best. their company often leaves her feeling more lonely than if it was just her. ]

But I will remember your kind offer. It is generous of you to promise such a thing.

[rezni]

Tell me you'll call on me. Repay my generosity by making use of it.

[lambencies]

I will. Once this madness has passed.

[rezni]

Don't wait for the madness to pass. If the last few months have taught us anything, it's that we can rarely expect a month without some sort of disruption.

[lambencies]

You make a fine point, but there are matters that require my presence at home.

[ murder prevention duty... you know, just normal parenting things. ]

[rezni]

I understand. I hope your wisdom is not falling on deaf ears?

[lambencies]

They will listen.

[ she won't give them a choice. ]

bow??

[rezni]

I wish you luck then, Alicent. For the outcome you most hope for to come to pass.
