[ It will never stop being surprising, having people drop into her head like this, but when it's Alicent there's a flustered flutter accompanying the shock that soothes it somewhat. ]
Of course, Your Grace. [ Hesitating, ] Like... this?
Forgive me, I should have reached out to you in person.
[ of course, she's already more used to this way of conversing than Rhaenyra is, but she also had her own reasons to not face her. ]
As you well know, it is no longer safe to stay in the boarding house. Thankfully, we have acquired a property of our own. [ she draws a breath. you know, breathing, like normal people do. ] I think it would be for the best if you moved in with us.
[ asking your best friend/crush to move in with you but you are her queen and step-mother and also she is a teenager? not great!! ]
[ She must needs get used to it and she doesn't want Alicent to think she doesn't want to hear from her, whatever way the words may come. But her offer is slow to process as Rhaenyra turns it over, trying to examine all sides of it so quickly. The facets seem sharp, maybe dangerous. It's unexpected, to say the least. ]
Is... That's very generous of you, Your Grace. [ But the hesitance is clear in her voice, even if all the benefits of private accommodations are rushing through Rhaenyra's mind as well. ] Do my brothers know you're offering?
[ The reactions of both are concerns for such very, very different reasons. ]
