This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things / House of the Dragon /Lady Justice

6. Very Rude

"You seem to focus better when your sister is here, lets get her back." Justice decided. "She's what? 6 here and she's smarter than you." Justice decided. 

"You are very rude." Viserys countered. 

"I know, focus." she demanded turning him around. 

 "Hey Vis, is Aemma okay?" Avalon asked. 

"She... why do you ask love?"

"She seems sad a lot." Avalon remarked. "I thought I was going to be an aunt again but..." She shrugged taking another bite of a cookie.

"That happens sometimes." Viserys remarked. "I'm confident she will have a good and full term for the next."

"It's a lot, its hurting her. Maybe you wait." Avalon suggested licking at her lips.

"I think you are probably right." Viserys admitted.

"Are you worried?" Avalon questioned.

"About what my love?"

"Not having any more children." Avalon clarified.

Viserys face fell, Avalon understood his heart back then, even when he didnt. Justice nodded along. 

"You get it now?" Justice questioned, Viserys didnt answer. 

"No, Aemma and I are young, plenty of time." Viserys corrected but Aemma had quite a few miscarriages and Viserys didnt understand why. They fell pregnant with Rhaenyra so quickly and every child since then it seemed harder and harder. More bloody. He wanted an heir, he needed an heir. As the years passed he assumed the people had wished they changed their votes to Rhaenys because she had a son, an heir. But Viserys was the king and he felt that pressure but staring back at Avalon he didnt see that pressure, he just saw love. He saw the one person in the whole world that he loved more than anyone, that could always make him feel better and he wanted Avalon to stay his little angel forever. To never grow up and not need him anymore. Because that day, the day she left and started a family of her own, somewhere far away, Viserys knew that would kill him.

"Okay," Avalon agreed. "You would tell me if you were right? We tell each other everything." Avalon reminded him.

"We do." Viserys half agreed. "And if I'm worried my lovely I will tell you."

"Because I can fix it." Avalon assured confidently as she stabbed her fork in the cake this time.

"You can, no doubt about that." 

"Awww!" Justice declared. "She's so precious!" 

Viserys swallowed the lump in his throat. 

"Well?" Justice questioned. 

"What?" Viserys demanded. "I can't change anything, you can!" 

"I told you already, I can't change things if you keep making the same mistakes."

"I am the king I need an heir!" Viserys declared. "Just take me home." 

"Thats the wrong answer." 

"If I dont have that much time left with my wife, I want to spend it with her." Viserys countered sharply. 

"Thats also the wrong answer." Justice countered shaking her head. 

"What? That I want to spend time with my wife?"

"That you want to spend time with your wife before she dies. Giving birth to a son."

"I do get a son?"

"Heavens sake." Justice demanded she grabbed the back of his head and slammed it down but he didnt feel the pain, he glanced around suddenly seated in a wheeled chair. He glanced to Ser Lyonel strong beside him and justice on the other side. 

"You wanted a son, these are the sons you get, the grandsons you get." Justice warned. 

''Blades up. Engage.'' The boys attacked, Aegon being elder and larger got Jace down easily but Jace had fire and he jumped back up. Running back Aegon knocked the straw dummy over onto Jace. 

"Who are they?" Viserys questioned. 

"Your sons, Aegon, Aemond... your grandsons Jace and Luke. Oh look at luke, he's so cute!" Justice cooed. "I just want to smush his little face." 

''Foul play.'' Harwin shouted.

"My boys? I have two?"

"Three but you lot hate Daeron, but its for the best, he's the only good child, less fucked up because he was sent away." Justice offered. 

"Three sons?" Viserys declared wide eyed. 

"Not the point." Justice shouted. 

''I'll deal with him.'' Criston moved to Aegon as Harwin moved to Jace ''Plant your feet. You have a height advantage. Use it.'' Criston whispered. ''Advance on him...'' Aegon nodded and continued forward quietly before shouting

''You!'' Aegon shouted lunging down on Jace.

"He also gave his brother a pig with wings earlier." Justice added. "And masturbates over the balcony."

"What?"

"He is a rapist in the future too. Poor girls, I need to steal his cock now." 

'what?" Viserys demanded. "My son? A-"

''Close with him. Press him backward!'' Criston encouraged as Jace tried to get up, tried to scurry away. ''Close with him! Stay on the attack! Use your feet!''

"Wait... why do they have black hair?" Viserys questioned.  "You said Aemma died." 

"And you remarried." Justice agreed. 

"Which are mine?"

"The white haired shits." Justice answered. "The cutie pies are Rhaenyra's bastards."

"Bastards?" He demanded. "You said she married-"

"Yes and she is a slut because she didnt have a mother to help her, guide her, show her that she didnt need to a pawn in your game." Justice offered. 

 ''Don't let him get up.'' Criston shouted ''Stay on the attack!''

''Enough!'' Harwin shouted pulling Aegon back from Jace.

''You dare put hands on me?'' Aegon shouted in outrage.

''Aegon!'' Viserys called down.

"Can't hear you." Justice countered. "And yet thats what you said." 

"It just..." Viserys looked to her with a cool gaze. She smiled. "What have you done to me?" 

''You forget yourself, Strong.'' Criston said calmly. ''That is the Prince.''

''This is what you teach, Cole?'' Harwin countered ''Cruelty... to the weaker opponent?'' Harwin got down picking up the sparing swords.

''Your interest in the princeling's training is quite unusual, Commander. Most men would only have that kind of devotion toward a cousin... or a brother... or a son.'' 

"Harwin strong?"

"Oh wow, look at you using your brain!" Justice agreed. "But lets get back to Aemma." 

"Let me go home!"

"Look around," Justice countered. "You are home."
