"Come on, lets get you something to eat." Aislynn remarked linking her arm with Michaels. "Don't worry Ali, say hi to the boys, I will bring Michael back in one piece." Alicent nodded slowly before running off. Michael smiled softly at Aislynn. "So you and my sister." 

"Yes your grace." MIchael agreed. 

"You can call me Aislynn for as long as I like you and you treat my Alicent right." Aislynn informed him. "So, what do you do? Why did your parents send you to Rhaenyra's tour? What made you fall for my sister? I mean I understand the silver hair is... weird." 

"Alicent is just so sweet, she has the best smile. She bumped into me and I locked eyes with her and that was it for me." MIchael remarked. AIslynn brought a hand to her heart. 

"Love at first sight!" Aislynn declared. 

"Yeah, it really was. I spent that whole day talking with her and when they were getting ready to leave, I just couldnt let that be the end." Michael remarked. "I had to know her more, I had to make sure she didnt fall in love with anyone else because who wouldnt fall in love with Alicent?"

"I agree." Aislynn remarked. She felt a flutter in her heart, knowing her sister got a really good guy. 

"So I just... kept... following them place to place and then she invited me back here, and I wanted to meet her family, meet you." Michael remarked. "I... I want to marry her." 

"I want you to marry her but you have to get past my father." Aislynn remarked. "SO what do you do?"

"I'm a smith. Nothing fancy. My mum was a... I was adopted and I found my mum recently she was a gypsy, that was something that connected us. Alicent said your mum was a gypsy." Michael remarked. "I dont know much about it - my mum passed too and..." 

"You have gypsy blood." Aislynn remarked fondly. "Thats... who was your birth mother?" 

"Pollyana Grey.  I took her name when I found her, in honor of her." Michael remarked. 

"Aunt Polly had a son." Aislynn whispered. 

"What?" 

"Honey, you are already family." Aislynn remarked. "You treat my Ali right, it won't matter that you are smith and not a lord, I will make sure you get our fathers seal of approval." Aislynn declared giving a little cheer with a cup cake, getting frosting on her lips. 

"You mean it?" Michael rasped trying to comprehend everything she just said, they were already family? 

"Quite the sweet tooth you have Aislynn." she turned around licking the glaze from her lips. Daemon ran his finger along her bottom lip before sucking the residue from his finger and damn if that wasnt sexy. But no, Daemon was evil, he was the devil is disguise.  Daemon smirked heading off and Aislynn's gaze followed him.

"Who was that?" Michae questioned. 

"Daemon, dont worry, he's a dick." Aislynn assured. "Cookie?"

Daemon stood basking in the sun when Rhaenyra found him.

"You seemed so content on Dragonstone.' She remarked. 'Why did you come back?' he opened his eyes and looked down at her. 'There is surely more to your return than simply taunting my father.' She remarked. 'So... what do you want?' Rhaenyra questioned.

'Only the comforts of home.' Daemon assured as he moved to a buffet line and started picking at the food. He glanced at Michael and Aislynn, Aislynn's words fell from her lips seeing Rhaenyra. Rhaenyra smiled back at her. 

'I had not thought you particularly comfortable in this home. Though I do suppose you seem changed by your adventures. More mature, perhaps.' Rhaenyra offered.
