[D8 EE] The Wounded Dragon

[Ser Lorent Tyrell]

Lorent sucked his teeth thoughtfully, torn. Being amongst other ladies would probably be good for her, unless they asked too many questions, but he also didn't want to leave her side if it could be helped.

[Maester Hubert]

"Of course," Hubert answered, "I'll set up the cot in here." It seemed that the maester had kept patients overnight before.

[Alicent Feyther]

"Thank you, Maester Hubert. If it's not an imposition, I'll stay here, then," she said with a bow of her head. A full curtsy would be painful and weird looking under the circumstances.

[Ser Lorent Tyrell]

As Hubert busied himself, Lorent gently folded Alicent into his arms, "how do you feel?"

[Alicent Feyther]

She leaned her forehead against his chest. "I sting a bit still. But all in all, much better. I feel like it'll be okay."

[Maester Hubert]

Hubert finished setting things, and gathered a number of books and scrolls from the table, departing without any further comment.

[Ser Lorent Tyrell]

Alone with Alicent, Lorent guided her over to the cot, "will this be all right? Do you think you'll be able to sleep?"

[Alicent Feyther]

She nodded to him, taking a deep breath. She gave a weak chuckle. "As long as I sleep on the side with my good wrist, I should be okay."

[Ser Lorent Tyrell]

He sat on the cot, urging her to sit beside him. "Tomorrow's the last day of the Festival. I don't want you to see Caim again, I don't want you to go anywhere near him. Have Lady Lysa find somewhere for you to sleep tomorrow. I will bring you to Rosecrown with me. My mother isn't useful for much, but she can look after you."

[Alicent Feyther]

She sat down with him, carefully, taking the robe and cloak to use as blankets. She nodded in agreement. "I'll... need someone to retrieve my items from my tent, then. Kylie also offered to have me come down to visit the Arbor... she may be willing to simply make that my visit." A smile teased at the corners of her lips. "If we wanted to ask about a less... tempting option." She hadn't lost her spirit from all this, at least.
