" I'm sorry about the locale."
" No you're not." Olenna countered ignoring the brothel around her.
" It felt like the safest place." Petyr offered
"Not for your clientele, clearly."
Garlan didnt like brothels, anyone that had to pay for sex, didnt know what they were doing.
" It was an establishment like no other. The sheer range of appetites catered to, desires that didn't exist until we invented them." Petyr went on
" You've always been rather impressed with yourself, haven't you?" Olenna questioned.
'You want a go for a ride ser?" a woman came up draping herself around Garlan.
"Unless you mean riding a horse out of this disgusting place, no." Garlan countered. "I dont want to ride you and I dont want to be ridden by you." She pouted walking off.
"The past is the past. The future is all that's worth discussing. The future of House Tyrell." Petyr assured turning back to Olenna.
"Don't pretend to have any concern for my house, my grandchildren, or me. I should have known you'd return to the capital once things started going wrong."
" I promise you..."
Garlan started laughing as he looked to his grandmother.
"He promises." Garlan chuckled. "You hear that? A promise from little finger." Petyrs jaw clenched.
"I promise you, Lord Baelish, that our fates are joined. Together we murdered a king. And if my house should fall, I would have nothing to hide." Olenna assured, that took Garlan back, they murdered the king. His grandmother was a murderer? He looked at her with fresh eyes. "And if i should meet with some accident here at this broken little flesh market, they'll never even find what's left of you. Garlan will make sure of that." Yes use him as a threat after you admit to killing the king, garlan was still playing catch up. "So do you deny a part in all of this?" Olenna commanded
" Cersei summoned me to King's Landing. I dared not refuse her."
"And what did she want?" Olenna demanded.
"A piece of info that she knew that I had. Neither silence nor lies were an option. But I have other information of which she is unaware. And as you say, our interests are aligned. I have a gift for you."
"What kind of gift?" Olenna urged
"The same kind I gave Cersei. A handsome young man."
"Gross. I dont want to be here if you are planning on fucking a whore, Nana." Garlan countered.

"Cersei went to visit Margaery."
"No doubt to torment her." Garlan agreed picking up his fork and putting it right back down.
"No doubt." Taeylor agreed, fingers trilling silently over the flute from Garlan. He took a step closer before sitting beside her.
"My brother wants us to leave. Says there is a place for you in his carriage. The little flirt."
"Thats sweet. But you are not leaving and I'm not in danger." Taeylor countered. "I'm not leaving Margaery either, she is my friend." Taeylor looked to Garlan but he wasnt looking at her. "Are you scared?" that drew his attention. "That they will take you too." she clarified.
"They will die trying." Garlan corrected. "It's getting late-"
"Would you stay tonight?" Taeylor cut him off. "On the couch." She added quickly.
"You want me to stay?"
"I... enjoy your company Garlan." his smile grew. "Stay. There is no harm in sleeping on the couch."
"RIght, the couch." Garlan agreed.
"I mean it." Taeylor countered.
"Can I get you another glass of wine?" Garlan suggested making Taeylor smile too.
"Confess."
" My son. Let me speak to--" cersei demanded. The septa slapped Cersei with a spoon.
"Confess."
" I meant it." Cersei warned " My face will be the last thing you see before--" She slapped her with a spoon again then leaves. Cersei stared a moment longer at the closed door before she started screaming.
"The trial will take place. The High Sparrow will be presenting a substantial case against you." Taeylor tried not to be smug but she was. Garlan was giddy at the thought that cersei would be punished too.
"The charges?" Cersei countered.
" Fornication, treason, incest, the murder of King Robert." Qyburn answered.
" All lies." Cersei declared.
"Yeah right." Garlan countered, Qyburn glared back at him.
"Of course, Your Grace" he answered knowingly. "My concern is that The Faith does not adhere to the same standards of proof as the crown. And I hope you'll excuse me for saying it, but belief is so often the death of reason."
"Meaning you locked Loras and Margaery up without hope and now you are suffering the same. Thats divine justice." Taeylor decided. "That's a good song in the making."
"SHut up Taeylor."
"It's divine nature-" Taeylor began to sing.
"Any word from Jaime?" Cersei pondered. That would be the one bright spot if myrcella was coming home.
"I'm afraid not. Your Grace, Grand Maester Pycelle has summoned your Uncle Kevan back from Casterly Rock to serve as Hand of the King. He now presides over the small council."
" Tell him I need to speak to him." Cersei demanded.
"I implored him to visit you but he would not." Qyburn informed her honestly.
"He thinks you are guilty and he prefers you in here." taeylor added. "less trouble."
"What about my son, the king? If you can visit me then surely the king--"
"Your arrest, and Queen Margaery's arrest, the king has not taken well. He remains in his chambers, his servants often find his food in the hall. Left untouched." Cersei hated to ask such things but she looked to Taeylor.
"He adores you, I dont know why." Cersei admitted. "But Tommen does. Can you talk to him for me? Tell him to come... to come and see me, come and see his mother."
"I will try but i doubt they will let him in, they wouldnt even let him in to see his wife, why would they care about you." Taeylor countered.
"" I can't stay here." Cersei hissed pacing her cell.
"There is a way, Your Grace. A way out."
"Confess? To the High Sparrow? I won't. I made him. I rose him up from nothing, I will not kneel before some barefooted commoner and beg his forgiveness." Cersei sneered as The septa entered the room.
"Goodbye my queen. The work continues." Qyburn offered as he headed out.
"I want to see my sister." Garlan demanded, the septa just stared back at him. "Please."
