☁︎The three siblings sat by a carpet while waiting for their mother's arrival and their new brother. In deep honesty, Visenya did not care about the gender of her newest sibling. She just wanted them to be healthy. Ser Harwin stood over them, watching as he waited as well.
Soon, the doors opened, and the children shot up from their spots as their mother walked in. Their father followed closely behind, carrying their new sibling, as her two brothers hurried toward the pot holding the egg that would go to their brother. Visenya watched her mother.
"Look," Jace said, gaining their mother's attention while Visenya stood to the side. "We chose an egg for the baby," Luke said as Rhaenyra took Harwin's arm to help her sit. "That looks like the perfect one," she said, smiling as Jace continued, "We let Luke choose."
"Thank you, Jace and Vis," Luke said as Harwin walked away, and Visenya took her moment. "Not every day an egg leaves the Dragonpit, Princess. I thought it best to escort the children." Harwin said, looking from her to the children. "Laenor and I thank you, Commander," Rhaenyra said before looking to her daughter, who now stood before her, looking concerned.
"Are you all right, Mother?" she asked as Rhaenyra gave a soft smile and nod, taking her daughter's hand and saying, "I am well, sweet girl. No need to worry." Visenya looked behind her mother and saw her grandmother standing with a soft smile. "I made certain," Aemma told her granddaughter, causing her to smile finally.
"Another boy, I heard." Ser Harwin said as Rhaenyra looked to her daughter, who offered a shrug. "What a fine knight you are going to make, eh?" their father said as Visenya squeezed her mother's hand. "Might I?" Ser Harwin asked, causing her eyebrows to furrow at the look on the man's face.
"Ser Harwin wishes to be introduced to Joffrey," Rhaenyra says, causing Visenya to nod as she thinks about the name of her new brother. "Joffrey, is it?" Harwin asks as Laenor hands over the newborn babe. "Father, please may I hold Joffrey?" Luke asked and began reaching up for the babe.
"No, no, back to the Dragonpit, you two," he said before turning and holding his hand out to her. Rhaenyra squeezed her daughter's hand before letting go and watching her hurry to take Laenor's. They both walked from the room.
"Are you upset?" Laenor asked as they walked down the corridor back to her lessons. Visenya shook her head as she began to swing their hands. "I do not mind another brother," she finally said, causing him to nod. He genuinely believed her words no matter what she had said before.
"Has anyone bothered you?" he asked, and she knew what he was talking about and looked around before replying, "He has left me alone; I am surely glad." Laenor smiled, knowing of how the ghostly man at times scratched away at her nerves, though she could not show it as it would be noticed by those it should not be.
"That is good; perhaps he shall stay away," Laenor said, but he knew it wasn't true as he heard his daughter sigh, knowing the man was near. "Like your brothers, I am difficult to be rid of," Maegor said as the two continued walking, causing him to speed up.
"You can not ignore me," He said as the two continued, and Visenya never turned around, causing Maegor to roll his eyes. As they neared the room, she heard no more footsteps and turned to look. A loud laughter hit as Maegor pointed to her, "You truly believed me to be gone."
Visenya huffed as she balled her fists and turned to the man, but Laenor quickly placed his hands on her shoulders as the Septa opened the door. "Hurry along; I shall return later," Laenor told her and the Septa took the girl's hand as Laenor hurriedly closed the door. "Must, you agitate her." He muttered as Maegor rolled his eyes at the man and stood by the door.
