It is true. Daemon took my grandson from this world. His catspaw made my daughter choose between her babes and slit Jaeharys’ throat before her very eyes.
Given that Bella and House knew of the drugs affecting Erik, they are like to have noticed if Jace was similarly afflicted.
I know nothing of Caroline. A woman in the application, Tiffany, is a professed murderer and blond of hair. Alia has a fondness for the lake, though I mislike accusing her, when she has been good to me and mine. Lestat is the only blond among the vampires, is he not? Daniel is indisposed and white of hair, besides.
I don't know what to say, other than I'm sorry. That's barbaric. He should be behind bars whether he killed anyone last night or not.
Maybe they didn't think to test him, because it looked so obvious that he'd drowned.
I don't know Tiffany either. But from the looks of this profile I'm better off that way.
Alia has been good to me as well. She is also a professed murderer, and has the power to control minds. She could have made him walk into the lake without a struggle. Lestat's the only blond that I'm aware of.
[ she was already sick this morning, and she hasn’t eaten since, but her stomach churns and churns and churns. tim is too good for this. she has poisoned him the same as ser criston. ]
It would not be wise to bring my family into it unless Aemond is named. Let us wait.
But if he has done it, it would be for the good of everyone, not just you, to see him locked up. Especially the victims.
[ He's been poisoned long before this. The stroke of the pen that turned Hawk's words into the end of Caroline's life as she knew it was his. Everyone who had been ruined by McCarthy's inquisition would be right to blame Tim, in some small part, for keeping that engine running. How many envelopes of faked evidence and blackmail has he delivered? How many hearings has he attended, passing out memos and filling up glasses of water, so that someone's life can be destroyed with perfect clarity? His only good deed in Washington had been a betrayal.
Politics is an ugly game, but he'll play it, for her as he's played it for Hawk, even as it burns at his soul. They're in Hell. It's only going to get hotter. ]
I have not spoken with him, but I've met with Daniel Molloy who in turn knows of him. Daniel is a dependable character, and currently indisposed through means unknown.
There are only so many of us here as guests, it stands to reason that friendships and alliances overlap. But these are too close to my understanding. Too easily connected in a tight web.
If it is not an enemy masquerading as a friend, then it's someone who knows enough to pretend to be one.
[ he will absolutely read into that, thank you. his uncle never married someone he didn't know as a minor by choice, great-grandma alysanne had to have arranged the royce marriage for a reason. ]
I'm proud of my family. Though it's true that I've not been the most diplomatic, naming my half-sister and my nephew as I have.
[ take it as a win that he's even admitting to that much. ]
It's...my schooling was in history, not science, but when you mix genes too much, you run the risk of birth defects, poor fertility, certain diseases. Have you had any experience with that?
We haven't undergone any testing like that, no. But we don't make a habit of marrying our cousins.
Hm, but the smallfolk have a saying. When a dragon is born, the gods flip a coin. Madness or mediocrity, they would say. We are otherwise ourselves whole.
If anything, our blood is ever fertile. My mother has four children, my uncle four, my sister two, my half-sister five.
If our teams and roles hold any influence, it would stand to reason that the most unlikely could be suspects in this deadly game. Chosen not by their inclinations but by the Balfours themselves.
