[ did someone say game of thrones, or, more accurately, a song of ice and fire

It's plausible the two haven't encountered one another; Dany doesn't go out of her way to meet people in Wonderland and rarely uses the network, frustrating as it is. But every so often, she'll venture into one of the tea rooms to meet with Lady Sansa or another of her friends, tiny dragon perched on her shoulder or wandering around elsewhere, but always in sight, always nearby. Today is no exception; the silver queen enters without fanfare, moving to sit at one of the tables, untroubled by the presence of anyone else.

Well. Until Aeryn gets bored of waiting and sitting and uses his little wings to propel himself onto the table that Ben's set up his game. ]

That isn't food. [ She chides, because the dragon nabs one of the pieces in his mouth. ] We need to find a way for you to grow; I will not spend this much time finding you food, I absolutely cannot.

[mrknope]

Hey, that's my--

[But his words die in his mouth as he turns around and sees exactly what had eaten one of his cones, and more than that, who exactly the dragon is with.

And it's saying a lot when seeing an actual dragon is not even the coolest thing happening right now. I mean dragons are cool, but come on. Any idiot can see that's not Drogon, Viserion, or Rhaegal. The woman he's with, however..... silver hair, purple eyes.... those are Targaryen features, and that face, that queenly bearing.

Ben is staring. His mouth has dropped open and he is staring. He's been waiting his entire life for this moment even though he also always assumed it was impossible and he's staring like an idiot.

He closes his mouth and sweeps into a deep bow.] Khaleesi.

[unsullies]

[ Well. Her eyebrows raise in mild surprise; there aren't any of their world aside from Sansa, and though many had been "adopted" into her family during one of the mansion's strange periods of influence, she doesn't remember seeing the man before her during that time. Doesn't remember seeing him before at all, which makes her almost suspicious as she gets to her feet. ]

Who are you? [ Odd to call her 'khaleesi,' too, to know not only her bloodline, but of her time with the Dothraki.

It reminds her strikingly of Jorah, who had always called her that, and her expression flickers as she shoos the thought away. ]

Have we met before?

[mrknope]

[He straightens and tries to keep his face serious and noble, but he mostly just looks like he's about to explode of glee.]

No, but I would recognize the face of the Mother of Dragons anywhere. [He touches his chest, tilting his head up slightly.] I am Lord Ben of House Wyatt. I hail from the land of Pawnee. Though our city is small and far from yours, tales of your actions in Slavers' Bay have still reached our borders. [Through books and a very popular television show, but he doesn't have to explain that part.

He leans forward slightly.] Totally rooting for you to get the Iron Throne, by the way.

[unsullies]

I have never heard of Pawnee. [ Or House Wyatt, but she's hesitant to be quite so forward when he's being so complimentary. It makes her more suspicious than flattered at the moment, but how likely is it that an assassin found his way to Wonderland? ]

... Then, you have my thanks. I will not turn away supporters.

[ And she can't, really, all things considered.

'Totally rooting' would have her more confused had she not spent so much time in the mansion, where everyone speaks the Common Tongue with phrases the likes of which she's never heard. ]

And I am sorry for Aeryn; he cannot find his own food, as he does not grow here. [ And so he eats just about anything. She holds out a hand and the little dragon grudgingly climbs on, making his way to her shoulder. ] You are of my world, yet you do not seem as fearful of him as most of the others.

[mrknope]

[....he should probably correct her and point out that he's not from her world. Probably.

....nope, her world is too cool and he wishes he were from it. He can explain later.]

It's okay, I was thinking of getting rid of that piece anyway. It's really redundant when the High Inquisitor is in play, and honestly, who wouldn't put the High Inquisitor in play? That just adds a whole new level to the game, and the dragon eating it just seems like a sign.

[He frowns, distracted for a moment, and moves one of the cones about three inches to the left before adding:]

I've wanted to meet a dragon since I was five. Plus, they don't start eating people until they're a lot bigger than that.

[unsullies]

[ Sooner or later, she'll figure it out; that tends to happen when you spend a lot of time in Wonderland among dozens of people from these strange, modern worlds. ]

... I know. [ Her own "children" are much larger and much more lethal. She frowns slightly at him, then points out: ] Then you have the wishful thinking of most children; they have been long gone from our world.

[ Until recently, of course. ]

... What is it? [ She asks, curious, glancing to the game board. ]

[mrknope]

Hey, it's not like I actually thought it would happen. But I also didn't think I'd be kidnapped into a children's story. Dragons are not as weird as expected.

[His eyes widen because Daenerys Targaryen, Mother of Dragons wants to know about his game. Wow. Talk about ways to prove once and for all that it is actually cool.]

This? Oh, just one of the world's most popular multi-player figurine-based strategy fantasy games. Cones of Dunshire. [A beat.] Actually, you'd probably be pretty good at it, since you're used to thinking strategically. Only instead of going for an Iron Throne, you're going for cones.
