Stopped CPR, after all, it's no use. The spirit was gone, we would never come to. And I'm pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free
Garlan carved a flute out of wood, for her. Taeylor didn't know what to say.
"I'm sorry for your loss." He whispered. "Thought you could make some music from the pain."
"Garlan..." she stared down at the woodwork before looking to him. "Thank you..." she rasped choking back tears.
"I know you loved him, if you need a shoulder to cry on, you have me." Garlan added. "As a friend of course."
"A friend." She agreed.
'You're very disrespectful,' Loras said pulling a sheet up over him
'And very hungry.' Margaery told him closing the door and popped a few grapes in her mouth from the table. She sat down at the end of the bed looking over at the two men. 'what's your name?'
'Oliver my lady.'
'I'm afraid my brother is keeping the king waiting Oliver,' Margaery told him and Oliver pressed a long kissed her brothers lips.
'My lady,' he said standing up and heading out, bringing his clothes with him.
Garlan noticed the man barely dressed coming from his little brothers room, he rolled his eyes peering in cautiously.
"Keep the whores in the brothel." Garlan suggested before continuing on his way.
"What fun is that?" Loras called after him.
'you might consider being a bit more discreet?' Margaery suggested and Loras let out a sigh
'why? They know about me anyways everyone knows everything about everyone what's the point in trying to keep a secret place like this?'
Taeylor watched her father step forward, he looked to her as if to say i told you not to marry him.
"Dont." She begged instead before he got the chance. He held his only daughter and she cried into him.
"I'm sorry." Kevan agreed.
"No you are not."
"He was my brother. Elder brother. We all knew his time on earth was coming to an end-"
"Tyrion murdered him!" Taeylor demanded. "Right before my eyes- what the fuck is wrong with Lancel?" She demanded catching sight of her brother out of the corner of her eyes.
"Dont ask." Kevan drawled.
"Can you be supportive of me?" Taeylor begged.
"I love you but... now you can set your sights on someone more appropriate." Kaven added.
"Appropriate?" Taeylor whined. "I loved him."
"I already have some matches in-"
"GAH!" Taeylor marched off, Garlans eyes followed her.
"Cousin Lancel. I hardly recognized you." Cersei remarked seeing him in a robe and barefoot.
" My deepest sympathies." Lancel offered.
" I apologize for my son's appearance." Kevan offered
' Uncle, it's quite alright."
"They call themselves sparrows. Bloody fanatics. Religion has its place, of course, but at a certain point... They never would have come to the capital when Tywin was alive." Kevan hissed.
"I'm sure he'll grow out of it. Whatever it is. Excuse me." Cersei added heading off and grabbing her wine.
"What is the proper time to let a widow grieve?" Garlan asked.
"You are honestly asking me?" margaery countered.
"Not you personally, you didnt like the shit, but Taeylor and Tywin." Garlan offered.
"Mercy would kill you if she found out you were flirting with someone else." Margaery corrected.
"Nonsense, she is a sweet thing but she's not... you know." Garlan offered.
"She is simple, who cares? Go home to her and stop bothering Taeylor." Margaery begged.
"I can't. I love her. YOu ever fall in love Margie?"
"No." Margaery countered sharply. "And dont call me that."
" Your wounds from the Blackwater seem to have healed." Cersei added when lancel approached.
" It wasn't my wounds that needed healing."
" What can I do for you?" Cersei drawled.
"You can forgive me."
"What could you possibly have done to warrant my forgiveness?"
" I led you into the darkness." He answered
" I doubt you've ever led anyone anywhere." cersei corrected.
" I tempted you into our unnatural relations. And, of course, there was the king. His boar hunt. His wine." Lancel corrected.
" I don't know what you're talking about." Cersei demanded.
" I'm a different person now. I found peace in the light of the Seven. You can too. They watch over all of us, ready to dole out mercy... or justice. Their world is at hand. I will pray for your father's soul." Lancel added and cersei laughed out.
"The day Tywin Lannister's soul needs your help..." she took another sip of wine as she headed off.
"Hey Taeylor." Jaime said softly. She looked up from her untouched drink.
"HI." She whispered.
"I'm sorry."
"Me too." She agreed.
"He loved you. I never thought he would love-"
"Please dont."
"What?" Jaime countered.
"Dont try to make me feel better." Taeylor begged. "It will only make me cry and i'm sick of crying for him." Tears welled in her eyes. "Damn it." She swatted at her cheeks.
"I'm-"
"Excuse me."

" They blame us for the death of Oberyn and his sister, and every other tragedy that's befallen their cursed country. I will burn their cities to the ground if they touch her!"
" Softer." Jaime begged.
" What?" Cersei countered
"Not so loud." Jaime corrected, Garlan hesitated at the door. Shouts werent noticeable but whispered voices held secrets worth ease dropping.
" Our daughter's in danger, and you're worried I'm speaking too loudly!" Cersei shouted
"The world can't know knows she's our daughter."
" Then don't call her your daughter. You've never been a father to her."
"If I was the father to any of my children, they'd be stoned in the streets." Jaime corrected
"And what has your caution brought? Our eldest child murdered at his own wedding. Our only daughter shipped off to Dorne. Our baby boy sent to marry that smirking whore from Highgarden."
Garlan chuckled at that. Smirking whore. Margaery would hate that.
