First Debt

[debtfree]

[After Lysa Stark's little episode in the Vale, and finding himself summarily moved from the Tower of the Hand while he was injured, he had hoped not to wake up somewhere unexpected again for the rest of his life. Apparently that was too much to ask for.

There is the sound of banging through the journal as Tyrion kicks the door, trying to call a jailer's attention, not wanting to make a fool of himself by trying to open a doubtlessly locked door. When he speaks, his voice is almost mocking, with just a biting edge of sarcasm beneath it.]

I find that this is growing old. I don't mean to be ungrateful for the hospitality, it's only that I mustn't be away from King's Landing for too long or the whores all start despairing. It's a tragedy to let a pair of teats go to waste like that, you know, and I'm sure you don't want that on your conscience.

...Hello?

[When his usual patter is eliciting no response, not even a cursory yell to be quiet, he starts to lose the false humour from his voice, kicking the door again.]

Hey! HEY! Whatever my sister has paid you, I will double it. HELLO?

And what would I expect to find if I opened said door?

[He's not stupid enough to walk blindly in.]

...The hallway? You know, that long room that all other rooms are attached to? They usually have tacky paintings on the wall or sometimes creepy suits of armour? Any of this ringing a bell?

I wasn't aware that the journey from King's Landing to Casterly Rock could be made in one night.

[The stranger might not get that Tyrion was making a joke at the expense of his father's taste in décor, but that jest would have gone down a storm in the encampments.]

[whichwayyoulean]

I don't know either of those places, but this place is Paradisa. Sorry, buddy, you're not home any more.

[Alas, Tyrion, your fantastic jest is indeed lost on him]

[He's never heard of 'Paradisa', not even in books of far away lands, and that unnerves him more than most things.]

Then if you would be so good as to show me the door, I'd be all too happy to be on my way.

Find it yourself. Just turn the doorknob and go to the lobby. Huge doors, right there. You can't miss 'em.

Apologies for the late tag <3

I should take the word of a faceless voice to attempt such an act?

[Yeaaaah, no. Who knew what was waiting for him in ambush out there?]
