Chapter seven

Dinner was awkward, to say the least. Most of the talking was done by their Septa as not one of the Stark girls wished to speak to one another at the moment.

"Arya stop it," Lillianna ordered as her sister continued to stab the wood with her butter knife.

"Enough of that young lady." Septa Mordane said stepping in before Lili lost her temper.

"I'm practicing." Lillianna rolled her eyes at her sister's words as she stabbed her food having had enough of the conversation.

"Practicing for what?" Sansa questioned.

"The prince," was Arya's response, and was immediately scolded by Lili.

"Arya Stark!" Septa Mordane yelled.

"He killed Mycah."

"The Hound killed Mycah," Sansa argued.

"The Hound does whatever the prince tells him to do." Arya retorted.

"The Hound follows the command of the royal family Arya, now shut up and eat," Lillianna said visibly annoyed.

"But-"

"Enough!" Septa Mordane stood up, as all three girls' eyes set upon her.

She began to pull Arya from her seat and led her down to the other corridor.

"What's happening here?" Ned asked, finally making it to supper.

"Arya would rather act like a beast than a lady."

"I see, go to your room, we'll speak later." Arya stomped off once the words left her father's mouth.

"I've lost my appetite," Lillianna said leaving before her father could get a word out.

Later as she was embroidering the door to Lillianna's room opened unannounced startling her.

Ned entered his daughter's room with a doll and an apology but stopped in his tracks when his daughter didn't even bother giving him a mere glance.

Ned not knowing what to do cleared his throat.

"What is it, Father? As you can see, I'm a little preoccupied at the moment." Lillianna said with coldness in her tone that Ned has never heard before.

"It looks good."

"I'm aware so just get to the point of this visit, Father."

"Lilianna I- I know I haven't been giving you the- I just-"

"Just give me the doll and pretend my outburst never happened." Lillianna cut him off already tired of this whole 'I'm sorry for not being a good father because you look like my dead sister bullshit'.

"Lili-"

"Let's just be done with this Father, I have no interest in participating in this reconciliation path you want to go on so just give me the doll."

Ned sighed before handing her the doll and leaving her chambers.

Lilliana placed the doll on her bed gently before going back to her embroidery.
