She nodded,"You sound like father", she smiled. "And yes I do have to approach one." Aelinor looked at him,"I will try even if I am..." her grin mischievous,"Intimidating."

"Perhaps go for the Intimidating types." He smiles at her jest. "I hear Lord Arryn has a son that is unmarried."

Aelinor chuckles,"It's colder there than it is here at the Keep." She smiled,"Oh my goodness, "I'm here reading in bed when I'm supposed to be at the Tourney!!!" Aelinor sprung up, she politely kissed the Maester on his cheek. "Thank You again.. And could you please see if my mother would come to my room?"

He nods. "Of course my princess." He bows and leaves. Minutes Later the Queen enters the room. "Hello Dear, do you need help?" The cute woman smiles.

Struggling to put on her dress, she peers at her mother from inside,"Yes.. I have no clue what I"m supposed to look like... Father insists on me finding someone.." She sighs, pulling the dress from over her head, ad reaching for her silken Braavosi dress and her lined cloak. "I just.." Aelinor shakes her head,"I don't know what to do anymore."

Her mother walks up and hugs her daughter tightly. "Your father means well....hes just worried about you." She says softly.

"Worried?"She hugged her mother back,"Why? I am preparing to help him and Uncle Makar by grooming myself for the Small Council."
Looking at her mother,"I am the last of the children, I would have had someone to wed if...." She smiled lightly,"I am ready to do whatever my King Father and Queen Mother asks of me."

Touching her mother's cheek,"But it is true... I do what you ask of me. I have been studying since before I could remember about our family line, different aspects of the world, everything...."
Looking into her mother's violet eyes that matched her own,"Just so I can help father... And now he wants me to take my nose out of the books and get married. I don't understand?"
"This has been my life, now I have to change that."

She giggles, "Perhaps he wants you to find a man who accepts you, find a man who does not care for the traditional lady, or perhaps enjoys it when woman are smart. However they are rare." She smiles to her.

Aelinor nods, then looks at her mother,"But then that means I have to leave you and father.. Everyone."
Then she remembered Ser Hightower from the wedding,"And if I am so beautiful, why was I only approached by a drunk man at the wedding? He wants to name me Queen of Love and Beauty if he wins the tourney, but I don't even know the man...."
Putting on her dress, than draping her cloak around her,"I know that father is giving me a chance to follow my heart, but.."She fastens the dragon broach,"I don't even know where to begin."

"Beauty is worse then Fear, my dear. Would you approach a man you thought to be the most Handsome that you have ever seen?" She smiles.

Shaking her head,"Unfortunately no..." Aelinor looks at her mother, taking her hand,"And that is way we're supposed to go to the Tourney, I guess?"
"So that someone may catch my eye?"She shrugged.
