"I was planning on it," Nyles said, letting some anger through. Fear would only show guilt. "That's how you play the fucking game after all." The princes clearly wanted a party. He planned on showing them one. He tosses the dice in the Stormlander's direction and then sweeps his right hand towards a drink to throw in the fucker's eyes as he watches them roll on the table. (If you want to knife a lordling, I'm going to need more commitment than that) Unarmed Rolls: Nyles: 100 (+4 to Unarmed) Dondarrion: 117 The dice come up 7...again, not that Dondarrion notices as wine goes in his eyes, causing him to let go of Nyles. Still, he takes a blind swing at the young squire and splits his lip with his fist. Prince Haegon, who had seemed the more timid of the twins, tackled Dondarrion with a battlecry. What followed was all out anarchy as someone flipped the dicing table and a brawl more fit for a lowlife tavern than a royal feast broke out. Ser Gareth waded into the anarchy, tossing lordling aside like stuffed animals as he tried to pull Prince Haegor (who had bit the Dondarrion lordling) out of the fray. Daemon, of course, snuck off in the chaos. I sometimes used small blades to sub for improvised weapons so I figured I'd add it as an option. Nyles curses but makes damn sure to grab the loaded dice and the coins before fleeing. He could take some bruises for real gold. Then he does his best to make his way out of the room. "Time to go sister!" He called out.

(There's an improvised weapons skill.)
Agility Roll: Passed
He makes it out of the dog-pile without taking further damage besides the bloody lip.

He pockets the coins and heads to the archery range. He tosses the dice down a cesspit on the way.

Violet shivered. "Oh gods!" She saw that her brother was involved in it. It was so like her relatives to cause trouble, though she hadn't expected Nyles to be the one. When they had spoken earlier she thought he'd possessed better manners than some. "Please," she said to her companion. "Stop them. I don't want to see anyone hurt." A few gold cloaks and guardsmen in black and red livery rushed in to break up the fight among those Ser Gareth had not tossed around like a ragdoll. He had picked up Haegon by the scruff of his neck a full foot off the ground and was looking around for Daemon cursing under his breath. "I think they have it hadled, my lady," Bracken replied, unable to stifle a laugh. "Now, where were we? Something about a kiss and a boon."

Edmure was speaking to a lording he didn't know when he heard the commotion. He turned around to see his youngest brother involved in a fight with some other striplings, including it looked like a couple of the princes. Amused, he watched on not intending to intervene unless things turned serious.

You'll have your kiss if you can offer me a suitable boon as recompense if your luck turns for the better." She smiled as her heart rate slowed to normal. "That sounds fair, doesn't it?"

Whatever conversation Alice was having, it ended there as she looked over at the fight that had broken out. And of course at the middle of it was a member of her family. "Nyles..!" She gasped, a mixture of surprise and anger in her voice. Ser Harlan had stood as the rumble broke out, though he hadn't perceived it as something overly serious. He walked up to Alice anyway. "Are you alright, my lady?" he asked politely. "I believe I saw your brother slip away moments before." He looked over to where the fighting had taken place and saw that the crowd around it had already more or less dispersed. It was like he'd thought.

Alice looked up at Ser Harlan and smiled, trying not to appear too drunk. "Yes, Ser Harlan... yes, no thank you, I am fine." She sighed. "I do not remember my brother being such a troublemaker. I guess war can do that to people." She laughed.

"And how will we decide if my luck has improved with the game of chance broken up?" he inquired thoughtfully. "Else it seems impossible to determine a fitting boon, fair as your offer sounds."

I did not mean to interrupt in any way," he said, and gave the ladies a bow. "Ser Harlan Hawick, at your service," he told them with a charming smile before turning back to Alice. "I do not mean to rush you from the feast, of course, but since most of your family has departed, you need only say the word and I'll escort you back to your quarters."

Violet bit her lip as she thought about it. "You could find someone else to play with? There's no sense me trying to make you lucky if you're not playing, after all. There must be plenty of people who enjoy games of chance. I would offer to play you, but I've never played, and wouldn't unferstand the rules. And I know you could not be unkind enough to take advantage of a maiden."

Alice smiled and shook her head. "No, not yet - I've already made friends and can't possible let 'em stay by themselves here." She grinned at the other two ladies. "Please, don't worry about me! It's a feast, there ain't nothing gonna happen to me here." She laughed.

"Well, anyone living in the Riverlands right now can use all the luck they can muster," he replied, as the various lordling were separated, some worse for wear than others. He raised an eyebrow when she noted that he would not be one to take advantage of a maiden, as if he was going to rebuke that claim, but left it unremarked. "It seems we are at an impasse then."

Tallahar approached his young sister Alice, "Ah little Alice how have you found Kings Landing so far? Bit of a change from Lord Harroway's town."
