me:  change jo’s fc to someone older
me to me:   ok but keeping jo’s fc as charlize just upholds the idea that she is ethereal and completely defies time,   which is the entire point of her character as i write her.    she was not supposed to survive tyrion’s birth,   and the fact that she did,   in my main verse,    simply contributes in that she doesn’t even seem real.   she is,  in appearance and in personality,   a guardian angel.

    ❛         oh,   most  certainly !     i remember watching you swim back in riverrun,  once,   when you were only a girl.               there is no malice here ;    only curiosity,   words spoken to a woman she considers a   friend.        .  .  .   although these years in the north  must  have been a trial  ---   at least,  in the beginning,  yes ?

     He stayed in silence, for a moment ; then, he      finally closed his laptop, looking straight in his      wife’s eyes.        I was listening. I am already studing with Jaime            but he needs more help apparently.

that settles her at least SLIGHTLY ;  she breathes out a long sigh, brushing her hair from her face. ( there’s still just a hint of annoyance in her eyes, but it will fade. eventually. )

 “ it’s not that he’s incapable, tywin ---- he   knows the material. he’s a smart boy, he’s   just not FOCUSING, i think. he’s ... he’s   not APPLYING HIMSELF as he should be. “

 Tywin, slowly, raised his eyes from the papers he      was filling, in time to notice how Joanna’s eyes      had sharpened since the start of the conversation.        Of course. We were talking about Jaime’s grades.

she’s growing AGGRAVATED with the entire situation, and quickly ;  jaime is better than all of this, she knows. ( not to mention her slight frustration at tywin for the moment. )  she leans against the edge of his desk, eyebrows raised.

A boy in him rises, a boy in him wants to offer a helping hand, to rush to where a sickly woman stands, and help her to her feet. A BOY IN HIM DIES. Only King remains, still as the Wall itself, and just as unyielding. The enemy, she was. Not a mere woman. A lioness. The eyes of a Tully can be known as such only by their colour alone, for in them lies the ruthlessness STARKS are known for. Same is the voice that fills every inch of the room with its commanding tones and the conviction that was granted him the day his bannermen chose him to lead. What Robb spoke had weight. What Robb spoke was to be obeyed.

   a cough rattles her bones as lannister emeralds seek the boy’s gaze ;    they lift, slowly, from the ground from which she lays, and she struggles    to stand on her own. it is PRIDE that drives her ;   pride, fierce and strong,    that brings her once again to her feet before robb stark. this time, however,    she does not stand so poised ---- shoulders are hunched just SLIGHTLY, and    breaths come less easily. ( she will not stand on her own for much longer. ) 

        “ you are very kind, your grace. “ 

    the words burn on her tongue as they are spoken, little     louder than a SIGH, but she forces her gaze to hold his.
