[it's not difficult to imagine there's more to alicent being left out. of course a lady of her stature shouldn't be getting her hands dirty - that's what the knights and courtiers and counsellors must be for. it's the same thing he did for senator smith, and that's one thing he knows he wouldn't change.]
I'd rather he resent me than wind up in the crossfire. It's not an easy decision.
But I am trying.
Keeping you on the sidelines seems like a real waste. They ever realize their mistakes?
