(Sanguis has blessed her and no one can tell her differently. Daenerys is standing before a mirror, running her fingertips over the horns protruding from her head. However those additions do not thrill her as much as the leathery wings on her back.
If her smile makes you feel a bit uncomfortable, that is understandable. The scales on her cheeks and the fact that her blue eyes are anything but human don't help matters, however there is an undefinable quality about her. Perhaps this isn't a blessing after all.)
Am I a monster? (Her hands shake as she presses her talons against her cheeks.) Is this...me? Have I always been this?

I am questioning...all of it. The necessity and any good that might have come from it.
(Seeing Drogon is a reminder, though he has done nothing but love her.)
I'm sorry. I thought I would be happy...being like this.
no subject
You don't have to apologize. I was worried about you, though...
[He frowns a little, unsure how helpful he's even being here or can continue to be, as emotions really aren't his forte. He doesn't want to just leave her in that state.]
Do you want to meet up? Maybe it will take your mind off of things...
no subject
I don't deserve your concern.
(She looks tired, defeated, sitting down at the table in her apartment.)
You should know what I did. It isn't fair for me to...
I burned a city to ashes. I killed thousands. I did it to kill a tyrant, but many, many innocents perished. I never wanted to be like my father. I wanted to protect people and see justice done. The throne was mine, but at a cost that frightens me.
no subject
That was some admittedly heavy information but as always he doesn't show any sort of judgement towards her.]
The fact that the cost frightens you is reason enough to not view you as a monster, Daenerys. I have encountered people who have purposely set monsters on students and other innocents, one who killed my teammate without remorse, and her only words to us were dismissive and uncaring of the pain she caused.
no subject
I was dismissive after it was done. I tried to not feel anything but triumph; I tried to feel right. But it hasn't lasted. I dream about them every night and I wish I could undo it.
Even if it meant losing the Iron Throne.
no subject
You tried to justify it, and you failed to. You tried not to feel anything and felt everything.
Cinder only ever cared about gaining power and I'm fairly certain if she felt even a twinge a sympathy for anyone she would die from being overwhelmed.
I don't see that in you. At all. I see someone who is remorseful and knows they can't change the past.
no subject
(Her heart.)
Coming here has given me perspective. I can be myself; I don't have to fulfill some role or make decisions that impact the lives of thousands.

I don't know about being a wise man just yet. I've got another month before I'm twenty.

I suppose it's more I don't feel like an adult yet.
no subject
There are times I come close.
no subject
Maybe it was because they were doing it all without having graduated. Like the title needed to be there for him even though really it probably matters even less now.]
Maybe someday I'll come close to feeling that way as well.
