"From a tender age, I was cursed with rage Came swinging like a fist inside a batting cage I went swimming with the devil at the bottom of a lake And he left me there by lonesome He was tall and mean with venom eyes so green Wanted reconciliation but my tongue was in my teeth I couldn't find the floor so I was kickin' with my feet But they weren't there, they were stolen
There is a lighthouse in the middle of the deep end I'm still stranded on the shoreline there And nobody hears me scream And I'll lure you like a landslide And I'll show you lovely things If you rescue me But they're make-believe The lighthouse by the sea
So I showed him all my teeth And then I laughed out loud 'Cause I never wanted savin' I just wanted to be found
Well, that should teach a man to mess with me He was never seen again And I'm still wandering the beach And I'm glad I met the devil 'Cause he showed me I was weak And a little piece of him is in a little piece of me"

Daenerys
"I believe you had some concerns you wished to discuss, Lord Tyrion?"
She waited as he took his seat, her mind whirring as he faced her and looked uncharacteristically somber.
"I do. I keep my eye on the stores and check them regularly. Initially, I thought it was nothing to worry about. But now, our medicine supplies have dropped far below my estimates of what we should be using. I can only assume that we have a thief or thieves within our company." He scowled and shook his head, disgusted that one of their own would dare to steal from them when they could simply ask instead.
She clasped her hands and gave a single nod, nerves calming now she'd seen with her own eyes that he didn't seem to have any knowledge of their actual plans. Her mind was a whirlwind of plausible stories to weave to explain her choices as she pretended she hadn't been forewarned of his suspicions.
"We have no thieves here, Lord Tyrion. Ser Jorah had some concerns regarding the Dothraki and Unsullied falling sick. We have already had an outbreak of sickness because they are not used to the climate. It was a preventative measure I agreed with." Truth mixed with lies was the best way to deal with Tyrion, who had mastered the art of deception before she was born.
