Alysanne shrugged. "I like the direct approach. In three days or so I'll be naked before him. Perhaps I can get him naked before me first," she said. She turned to Rya. "It isn't like we get a long courtship period."

Rya giggled,"You could always sneak in at night." She started laughing really hard,"Unless you're afraid of ghosts."

"not what I meant," Alysanne said. "If I'm marrying a man I wish to know some of his secrets first. Especially," she said, "if he is a ghost."

Rya sighed,"Good luck, Allard was there and won't talk about it. Never had the stones to ask Maekar." She curtsied to Alysanne,"I need to get ready for the dinner, I'll see you there."

Alysanne nodded and departed. A while later the diner is held. The meal is fancy but not overly so, in keeping with the frugal times. Beric is having fun stabbing at a seemingly helpless peach. The table is set for the two families and that's about it.

Maekar arrives in the same clothes, followed by his twin siblings. Rya is dressed in a simple green and gold dress, while Allard has on a brown shirt and pants. They all take their respective seats and Allard looks at Beric,"Is toddler made mashed peach one of the courses?"

The tot looks to the man. "I like ham and broccoli," he declared, waving a tiny blunt knife and fork. "Peaches are for reaches!"

Allard gawked at the kid, but before he could retort, Rya put her hand on his shoulder and sat him against the back of his chair. Maekar was watching the exchange,"Ham and broccoli are an odd choice for someone so young."

"He is a Stark," Arania said. "He is a bit of an odd one. I bore him and raised him but he still identifies with his father more than me," she said with a resigned smile. "Cannot take the North out of him even if I wished to."

Maekar looked between the two,"Send him to Highgarden to foster with me, he'll be safe in the heart of the Reach and his aunt will be with him."

"Oh no," she chuckled. "His father is letting him stay here as a favor of our past...relationship. He is not someone you want against you." She smiled as the boy ate. "Kalvin has little enough interest in him until he can swing a sword or read a map."

Maekar shrugged,"The arrangement wouldn't need to be permanent, but he has potential, and as you said, he's bored." He looked at Alysanne,"I'm sure you'd like a family member around."

"He's two," she chuckled. "But you're welcome to ask Lord Stark himself." Not like he hadn't just slaughtered every famed warrior in the entire Reach. "But, on to other matters. We lost Old Oak and Goldengrove to the Lannisters, so you're the principal defender of our north and west borders. Also, I trust no one, so be aware of the Stormlords to the east,". She tapped a finger. "Best to just expect problems, I've found."

Maekar's facial expression becomes one of confusion,"I thought he was older, he's a clever child."

"He memorized easily," she said. "His father used to make fun of the Reach it seems." She rolled her eyes. "You know how kids are. I cannot explain the ham and broccoli." Beric happily and silently munches on his ham and greens. "The king's sister will be we'd soon. I suspect we will be invited."
