[at first, the picture is blurry and out of focus, but it slowly focuses in on what may be familiar surroundings to people who have been here a while, the sewing shop.

a fine layer of dust is on the surroundings, but then the picture swivels abruptly to focus on Margaery's face]

Look at all of this! [she gestures, meaning to encompas the entire sewing shop] There are enough supplies to sew entire dresses, except for the fabric. Does anyone know where I might aquire the fabric? Please let me know. I'd love to get started as soon as I can.

We used to bargain with Delight -- a bolt of fabric for a happy memory. With her gone, I'm not sure which god you should appeal to.

I do have some fabric left from when I used to work there with Emily, if you'd like to look at it.

[roseofthetyrells]

[this draws her up short. she's no fan of the gods]

Bargain? With the gods? Do we get to keep our happy memory, or is it gone for good?

I would, thank you.

That's Emily's shop.

[Little defensive there, buddy.]

Re: [video]

[roseofthetyrells]

Really? Who's Emily?

[just a bit?]

[video]

[tongueamok]

The girl who owned that shop.

[Someone he cared about it one of those ways that he doesn't want to put into words, but it apparently matters enough to him that he's replying to this post.]

Is she here now? If so, I'm more than willing to share.

[not the best time to be using royal privilege, Marg]

[knifecollecting]

Last I heard we got the fabric from Delight. [She doesn't know if another god took over that deal while Delight was gone.]

Can you sew?

[roseofthetyrells]

[she sounds dismayed] From one of the creatures calling themselves gods? Truly?

Yes, I can sew quite well. I can make dresses, shirts, I can embroider and embellish.

[knifecollecting]

You might get popular when people find that out.

[tongueamok]

You cannot share what isn't yours to begin with!

[NOT ANSWERING THAT FIRST QUESTION.]

Then I take it she's not here. If she was, why would there be dust everywhere?

[TOO LATE, MARG HAS NO TACT AT TIMES. THIS WOULD BE ONE OF THOSE TIMES]

[roseofthetyrells]

Yes, I saw what the shops tried to pass off as clothing. None of it was suitable.

But I've been rude, haven't I? Margaery Tyrell, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. And you are?

[tongueamok]

She—!

[There's a slightly strangled noise that escapes the back of his throat as he grinds his teeth.]

She isn't here, but- but you cannot just lay claim to her establishment. What if she comes back? What if she returns and finds someone has been pawing all over her possessions?

[roseofthetyrells]

She'd likely thank me for not letting her shop go to waste.

[tongueamok]

She'd likely chastise you for presuming you know her. You don't.

[roseofthetyrells]

[resists the urge to roll her eyes. just barely, but she does it]

Really? Then, may I chastise you for presuming you know me?

I'm sorry about him. :/

[tongueamok]

No, you may not.

[And now he's hanging up in the snittiest fashion possible. Click.]

[Jo laughs quietly, until Margaery introduces herself. A queen, hm?

Poor thing.]

I'm Jo Harvelle. [No title to give.]

[roseofthetyrells]

[a three-times queen, no less. complete with three husbands]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Jo. [considers a moment] Is calling you Jo acceptable?

[knifecollecting]

Don't have any other names for you to use. [And Jo is preferable to Joanna.]

Should I be calling you Queen or something?

[roseofthetyrells]

Then, Jo it is. [NEVER ADMIT TO THAT NAME IN FRONT OF MARG, she will never call you anything else]

Please, call me Margaery. I never stood for much ceremony even when I was queen.

[knifecollecting]

[Jo has no plans to ever do so.]

Okay, Margaery. [Jo's never been one for titles anyway. Trying to remember to call someone queen would wear on her.] Nice to meet you.

[roseofthetyrells]

[SMART GIRL]

And you as well!

So, I really have to ask Delight for fabric?

[knifecollecting]

She's not so bad. [Delight is actually Jo's favorite, not that she would admit it.]

If you don't want to talk to her someone else probably could.

[roseofthetyrells]

I just--dislike the idea of owing them anything. I'll do it if that's the only way to get more fabric, but it will be. Difficult. And I don't want to impose on anyone else.
