way to plant a kiss to steffon’s cheek, then another to his knuckles.

“you’ve been conspiring with my assistant, then, darling?”

[*CASSANA. @lLMATERNA]

Cassana was truly satisfied with her routines —— the way she starts each day is fool proof ; a review of her schedule for the day, have her assistant fill her in on what she might have missed, check her phone for possible messages from her grandchildren ( she’d say

bucketlist, as one would call it , cassana could only place a hand a top her chest and smile. it is as if she’s catching up to a lifetime of * wants buried to accommodate the needs of others.

when lunch does come, there’s a specific sparkle to her smile as she makes

kind of warmth and affection —— a son and a mother ought to share.

For now, however, her son will receive a ‘thank you’ when they come across each other.

[*CASSANA. @lLMATERNA]

And, as usual, the note that she receives every year from Stannis goes into a well-kept box. Hidden from view inside the drawer in her study. Years and years worth of notes ——— maybe in due time, maybe in a few more years, the amount of identical notes will sum up into some

the nameplate earns the spot of honor in her study desk; front and center. She snaps a picture and sends it to Rhaenys.
