Dragon Mothers // Jorah Mormont

72. Bonding moment

Bastard  // Ned stark out now!!

'I came to brood over the Greyjoy attack but you're making it difficult... although you are better brooding than I am... you make me feel like I am failing brooding over failing to save my people' Tyrion told John

'I'm a prisoner in this island' he said in monotone. Not looking at Tyrion.

'You are not a prisoner you're free to move the castle to the beaches.' Tyrion told him, knowing that didn't sound too good, but he wasn't in a cage.

'You took my ship' jon spat. 'I'm not playing word games with you the dead are coming for us all!' jon declared.

'You figure out what to do with my missing fleet and I will figure out what to do with your walking dead man?' Tyrion offered.

'If someone told me about the white walkers in the night King... you wouldn't believe me.' jon said defeated.

'I do believe you' Tyrion said

'It was nonsense but then Mormont saw them and you saw them and I trust the eyes of a honest man over whatever everyone else claims.' Tyrion told him

'How do I convince people that don't know me, that don't believe in me that this is going to kill them all?' jon questioned

'Good question'

'I know it's a good question I'm asking for a good answer' jon informed him.

'peoples minds do not want to answer the questions that large.' Tyrion informed him. 'white walker night King... it's almost familiar to face a monster like my sister.'

'I can't help my people from here Tyrion. I would like to leave' jon requested.

'It seems unlikely that you became king of the north giving up that easy...'

'Everyone told me to learn from my father's mistakes don't answer summons from mad King's daughter and here I am the northern fool.' Jon remarked. 'and there are two of them, one that looks like she wants to have me fed to her dragons and the other... I don't even know what to think of Princess Deaneel.' Jon remarked. 'she called me a puppy.'

'yes then a rabid puppy,' Tyrion agreed. 'they are very different and seem to take turns being the aggressive dominant one. Neely is usually the one to worry about feeding you to dragons but her heart broke and shes been less or more, no happy medium at the moment.'

'Sounds like a mad kings daughter.' Jon mused.

'Children are not their fathers lucky for us and sometimes there's more to the northern fools than meets the eye... Danny could have fled but she stayed she save the people. you might wanna ask some of the people what they think of the mad king's daughter... she protects people same as you. she's not about to go north and fight an enemy she has not seen after a single meeting, it is not a reasonable thing to ask. So do you have anything reasonable to ask?'

'What do you mean?'

'I'm asking if there's anything I can do to help you.'

'Dragon glass?' danny questioned

'Obsidian he said you have an abundant amount here' Tyrion told her

'Why are we talking glass when our enemies-' danny took a breath. 'What does the king of the north want with dragon glass?'

'Apparently can you turn into a weapon to kill white walkers stop them destroy them I'm not entirely sure...'

'And what do you think about this army of the dead and white walkers and night kings?'

'I'd very much like to believe Jon sow is wrong but a wise man one said you should not turn away new ideas because you don't want to believe it' Tyrion told her

'Which Wiseman said this?' Neely asked.

'I.... don't remember' Tyrion lied

'Are you trying to present your own statement as ancient wisdom?' danny asked

'I would never do that... to you.' Tyrion said offering a smile 'especially not to you.' He said winking at Neely she rolled her eyes

'The reason I believe Jon is because he is here. His advisers told him not to come if I was his advisor I would've told him not to come, you don't have to believe him but let him mine the dragon glass. you didn't know it was here it is worthless to you give him some thing by giving him nothing take a step towards a more productive relationship with a possible ally... refocus on the task at hand Casterly rock.'

'What was that ser davvos said about Taking a knife in the heart for his people?'

'It's dreary in the north.'

'Amazing thing to see. I named them for my brother Rhaegar and viserys. They're both gone now. You lost two brothers as well. People thought dragons were gone forever, but here they are. Perhaps we should all be examining what we think we know.'

'You've been talking to Tyrion.'

'He is my Hand. ' Danny reminded him

'- He enjoys talking'. Jon countered

'- We all enjoy what we're good at.'

'I don't.' jon admitted.

'You know I'm not going to let Cersei stay on the Iron Throne.' Danny informed him

'I never expected that you would.'

'And I haven't changed my mind about which kingdoms belong to that throne.' Danny told him sternly.

'I haven't either.' Jon told her and Danny let out a long sigh

'I will allow you to mine the dragon glass and forge weapons from it. Any resources or men you need, I will provide for you.' Danny agreed

'Thank you. So you believe me, then, about the Night King and the Army of the Dead?' jon questioned hopefully.

'You'd better get to work, Jon Snow.'

'That was like some serious bonding right there.' Neely said as she fell into step with danny. 'I mean 10 out of 10, give him a throw blanket cause sister he is going to bend the knee.' Neely said confidently.

'I don't know about that.'

'No I suppose that look was nothing more than gratitude.' Neely agreed as she headed off.
