"I... this is Brienne of Tarth."

[ Insert long, awkward pause here. ]

"I am not here to respond to your message... but I will at my earliest convenience."

[ She would walk through all the seven hells for him without any hesitation at all. But she is nevertheless not quite the same young woman that fought so hard to be a member of his guard, many things have changed, some innocence has been lost and new vows have been sworn.

He might not be much happier about her vows than she would be about his, all things considered.

With but a smile he reclaimed her heart and her service, but she has still also sworn to find Sansa Stark, and that is an oath sworn to a Lannister.

A Lannister that she has a somewhat complicated relationship with.

A Lannister who is very much in Asgard at this moment. ]

I think justice is always worth the effort, Your Grace, but I will do as you say.

[ He nods, watching her. He has always found Brienne quite hard to read, beyond her obvious fancy for him - something he was quite glad he was unable to return, if he was being honest. She was still a good deal taller than him, a might stronger, too, and he was glad to have her back for that, at least. It was good to see the Rainbow Guard start to develop in Asgard even if he had lost his crown.

He cannot read her mind, but he can read some of her - she is conflicted and rightfully so. She probably moved on after his death as many others did. Margaery remarried, Loras joined the Kingsguard, his brother continued his bought for the throne - and he was simply gone. ]

I thank you for that. I am trying to keep peace here as best I can - war is a trifle unnecessary if we can avoid it, don't you think?

[ He smiles, waving a hand. ]

Perhaps we might drink and break fast some time.

[ "Moving on" would be saying a bit much, really. It never takes much for the wound his death left on her heart to rip wide open and start bleeding again, but it is true that she has found other things to fight for.

Other things to die for.

The offer of a shared meal makes her stomach fill with butterflies, and she offers him a shy smile, keeping her lips closed as to not show the gaps where teeth once were. ]

If it please you, Your Grace.

[ He watches her carefully, eyes flickering along her face - oh, Loras was not going to be pleased by her arrival here. The memory of his jealousy was still fresh in his mind. He leans down to offer her a soft, sweet smile, much like the one he had gifted her with when they had danced so long ago. ]

It would honour me, Brienne, I assure you, not just please me. I can only hope you would be gracious enough to gift me with your presence.

[ She knows that he does not hold the same love in his heart for her as she does for him, and yet that smile makes her feel as light as a feather, just as it had when she was just a girl. ]

The honour would be mine.

[ His smile brightens and he beams, giving her as best a bow as he can give through the bracelets. ]

It would delight me so, Brienne. I thank you for it.

As I thank you, Your Grace.

[ Oh, is she not in for the most fun ride here in Asgard... ]

You may call me by name if you desire. I would not fault you for it - I am no king here.

You are still my king.

[ But how could she possibly resist such an offer? ]

Renly.
