Re: [Day 2, LE] Another night at the Inn (Open)

Dunstan Tullison wrote:"
I'd prefer to deal with diplomacy somewhere other than in the Inn late at night good Ser. If you and members of your House want, you can stop by our camp tomorrow morning? We can have breakfast together and me and my council can hear what you and the rest of House Coldbrook has to say."
Dunstan says.

"
As I said Lord Tullison, my presence here is only to arrange the meeting. An inn is not the correct forum,"
as your men seem to not wish to pass along messages went unsaid. He could hear the suspicion in Lord Dunstan's voice;
what did he think? If he thought that he was some form of thug, that irritated him. "
Thank you for the offer of a neutral location."

by Dunstan Tullison Fri Apr 24, 2015 8:19 pm

"
If it is neutral ground you desire, we can meet by the Water Gate tomorrow in the middle of morning. However I am not to speak about affairs concerning my uncle without him present. Since I do not see him here I cannot ask him if he will come."
Dunstan says and takes a sip of ale, and than wipes of the foam with the palm of his hand.

"
Will ask him tomorrow and let you know if the meeting stands or not."
the yound Lord finishes speaking and ends with "
I bear no ill will to no one but will not suffer insults directed at my family."

In an effort to change the topic of conversation he turns around and orders the a round of ale for the entire table, "
Inkeep, another round, for everyone here!"

by **Ser Jorah Holt** Fri Apr 24, 2015 8:22 pm

"
I thank you for your time."
Ser Jorah turned to leave.

by Athelstan Fri Apr 24, 2015 9:24 pm

"
I'll leave your House affairs lord Tullison, unless you want an extra axe, let me know, but in the mean time I'll enjoy this drink"
taking a drink "
To your health and House Tullison"

by Dunstan Tullison Sat Apr 25, 2015 2:52 am

"
I thank you!"
says Dunstan, "
And to House Longshore as well!"
he adds and drains the cup dry.

by **Nathaniel Mason** Sat Apr 25, 2015 3:35 am

Nathan watches Ser Jorah leave with a degree of curiosity. "
I have never met someone from House Coldbrook before."
he said, not sure it would be accurate to say he had met one now. "
Are they all that... formal? Many say that Lord Bartheld is reserved, but he would practically be considered a mummer by comparison."

by Athelstan Sat Apr 25, 2015 4:24 am

"
I never met a Coldbrook, I saw a rather reserved man, I'll let you know what they are made of the day I fight one."
grinning to himself and Nathan "
Don't worry about him, he seemed mysterious and fishy, and probably not on purpose"
.

by Dunstan Tullison Sat Apr 25, 2015 1:59 pm

"
I've met Ser Jorah in the Sept yesterday. A good man, and a true knight, or so it seems."
Dunstan states his opinion.

Turning to Athelstan, "
How about you friend, do you support Yoren's desire to modify some of the ironborn ways?"

by Jon Cobb Sat Apr 25, 2015 5:11 pm

Jon banged open the door of the Drunken Huntsman, eager to get in from the incessant drizzle. Shaking off his cloak he looked over the taproom to see if there were any friendly faces present. His eyes alighted on Lord Tullison, who appeared to be holding court at a large table near the center of the room.

Hmm, might as well test the waters and see if he was serious about looking forward to seeing me again...

"
Good evening, Lord Dunstan,"
Jon says, adding weight to his greeting by thumping his maul against the wooden floor. "
You seem to have gathered a merry band to yourself tonight - is there room for one more at your table?"

"
And who have we here? Young Nathan isn't it? Lyra told me you had set up shop at the Painted World - I would have thought you'd be working there at this hour. Or are you fishing for customers amongst these fine gentlemen?"

by Dunstan Tullison Sat Apr 25, 2015 5:19 pm

"
Ser Jon! Do join us!"
Dunstan says and personally brings up a chair for him, slightly stumbling in the process.

"
This is Athelstan, another of the Longshores. And I believe you know Nathaniel and Ser Ben."

by **Benedict Marsten** Sat Apr 25, 2015 5:48 pm

Not having been formally introduced, Ben stands outstretching his hand. "
Ser Benedict Blackthorne. Its a pleasure to officially meet you Ser Jon."

by **Nathaniel Mason** Sat Apr 25, 2015 6:06 pm

Nathan gave Ser Jon a soft smile, his tone genial. "
No Ser Jon, I have never found the need to fish for customers. Besides, I try to confine my activities to a more appropriate venue. I'd never dream of insulting the Innkeeper by conducting business in his establishment without his permission. If any here are interested in my services, they will have to wait till tomorrow."

by Athelstan Sat Apr 25, 2015 8:10 pm

Athelstan covers his face for a moment and thinking to himself 'How can you forget to introduce your knight... I suppose it's normal for a lord to do so' as he stands and greets the man with a firm grasp of his hand "
An honor to meet you Ser Jon"
Athelstan orders a beer for the man.

Athelstan is curious about Nathan "
What do you mean by services Nathan, if you do not mind me asking of course"

by **Nathaniel Mason** Sat Apr 25, 2015 9:19 pm

"
I don't mind at all."
replied Nathan with a soft smile and a shrug. "
Ser Jon was was just referring to the fact that I am a whore."
He seems not even remotely embarrassed by the fact.

Nathan rises. "
Well, I should probably be heading out. As I said Lord Dunstan, I have a friend I am meeting for a drink. It was good to see you again, and you Ser Benedict. Very nice meeting you, Althelstan."
he says with a smile, then nods at Ser Jon. "
Ser Jon."

The young man exits the Inn, giving Yoren a parting wave as he sits by the fire and acknowledging one or two others as he departs.

"
Why thank you, Lord Dunstan, it's not often that I get to be waited on by the lord of a noble house,"
Jon replies with a smile and a wink. "
And it's a pleasure to meet you all, good sers,"
he continues with a little bow, before taking the proffered seat.

Benedict Blackthorne wrote:Not having been formally introduced, Ben stands outstretching his hand. "

"
Likewise, Ser Benedict,"
Jon rises slightly from his seat and shakes Ben's hand. "
You were with Lord Dunstan and Ser Theomore yesterday, watching the Princess' arrival, weren't you?"

Nathaniel Mason wrote:Nathan gave Ser Jon a soft smile, his tone genial. "

"
You must be doing very well for yourself then, if you're able to sit back and wait for customers to come to you! And even more so if you can decide for yourself when you care to work,"
Jon replies with a hearty laugh.

Athelstan orders a beer for the man.

"
The pleasure is mine, Master Athelstan,"
answers Jon, giving Athelstan an equally firm handshake. "
Another Longshore man, eh? That would make you an Ironborn - is that right?"

by Athelstan Sat Apr 25, 2015 10:06 pm

Athelstan nods to Ser Jon "
I am ironborn Ser Jon, but not like the ones you are used to hearing about. I'm Athelstan Pyke, so you can just call me Athelstan, I would never presume to be called 'Master' when I am not deserving of such title, but I thank you for it"

Turning to speak to lord Tullison "
Are you supporting anyone in this Blackwood against Brackens skirmishes I've heard about"

by Dunstan Tullison Sun Apr 26, 2015 2:37 am

Dunstan is saddened to see Nathan go, "
Hope to see you soon! Take care!"
he says as he walks out.

Hearing Athelstan's question Dunstan adoptes a more serious tone,

"
My mother was born a Blackwood. It was Brackens my father fought against, and died doing so. I saw myself what kind of men Brackens are while traveling towards Riverrun. It is Blackwoods I support, of course"

by Athelstan Sun Apr 26, 2015 2:55 am

"
Families are tied by blood, and blood beckons doesn't it"
Athelstan looks into the distance for a moment "
I know you seem and honorable man and helping with more then words. A thing I find not very common trait in many places, a lot of big talk but not much to show except for their higher station in life shields them from scrutiny."

by Dunstan Tullison Sun Apr 26, 2015 12:50 pm

OOC: Yield accepted, Dunstan knows no secret info or anything similar that would require intrigue. You could just ask this stuff, no reason to roll.

"
As I said the Brackens were harrasing the Blackwoods. My father died in that confilict. My mother was born a Blackwood so we always do support them in their time of need. Uncle, Ben and I also encountered some Brackens on the way up to here and had to teach them some manners"

Dunstan says the information and opinions he has gladly. He was not hiding anything concerning this matter.

by Athelstan Sun Apr 26, 2015 2:16 pm

"
I'm sorry for all that, if you ever need help, let me know"
standing up "
I best move on, before the one needing help is me"
laughing for a moment as he says his short good byes to everyone and leave for the Longshore camp.

by **Loreia** Sun Apr 26, 2015 5:03 pm

The next evening at the Huntsman, since the night before was so much fun, Loreia takes a relaxing backseat to the camaraderie saturating the inn, taking an icy comfort from her ale. Having spotted Dunstan a while back, she eyes his table with deliberation. She broods in isolation for the duration Athelstan's presence, and approaches the table after huffing a quiet "
good riddance"
when he takes leave. She walks forward with her general attention directing toward the young lord of House Tullison to solicit his admission to their company.

"
Lord Dunstan,"
she greets with a curt bow. "
Ser Benedict. Congrats on that rabbit-catching in the Hunt milord, a fine feat that."

by Jon Cobb Sun Apr 26, 2015 8:28 pm

"
So, Ser Benedict, tell me a little about yourself. Are you and Lord Dunstan just friends or are you his sworn man?"

OOC: I'm assuming that Ben isn't wearing any obvious signs of being a Tullison man.

"
Thank you, Loreia was it? Fell free to come and sit with us, I will not make you stand up and leave like you did to Ben and me before! I am only jesting, please do sit."
Dunstan says and smiles. He was a bit hurt by that and he is apparently covering it up with jests now.
