In the Lannister apartments, the table is laid out with all manner of savory and delightful dishes. There is also, as promised, a large quantity of wine; Arbor Gold, Tully's favorite. There is a single servant, which is the young man in Lannister's employ. All is ready for the meeting between Tybolt and his sister and Todric Tully.

Tybolt was seated in a high-backed chair upholstered in red and gold. He sipped on a glass of wine and waited for Tully to show up. His sister, Joanna, was seated across from where Tully would sit, looking lovely in a red silk gown cut low to show off her large breasts. She was a vision, he thought. What Lord could refuse a beautiful young girl like his sister, especially when she came with a Lannister dowry? Tybolt grinned. "Well, Joanna, are you ready?"

She grinned. "You told me my job was to sit and look pretty and make an impression. When am I ever not?"

"Well you will certainly accomplish that, Joanna," he said approvingly. "You're not as dumb as you pretend to be, I can tell. You are a Lannister, after all."

Todric knocks on the door to the Lannister dinning area. His hair still a bit damp, as he had just bathed. He is dressed in a fine doublet, with a golden chain that has a trout hanging on it. He enters and seems a bit nervous. Anyone who knows him can tell he is actually not drunk for once, which is a very rare sight outside of war.

Tybolt nodded to the servant to open the door, getting to his feet to welcome Tully to the dinner. As soon as the Lord of Riverrun entered, Tybolt Nodded to him graciously. "Welcome, Tully! May I present my ravishing young sister, Joanna?" He gestured toward his sister with a pointy-toothed smile.

Todric was taken back by how stunning Lady Joanna looked. He had assumed she would be beautiful but with the way she was dressed got Todric staring.
He regained composure quickly and spoke.
"Lady Joanna it is a pleasure to meet you. You are clearly a Goddess amongst men." He then turns to Tybolt. "We have been allies for years, Lannister, and you've kept such a beautiful girl hidden." He says smiling.

"She is indeed. All my sisters are, and Joanna is the last and loveliest. As for why you're meeting only now, well," he chuckled. "She's little more than a child. Please, sit," he said, gesturing to the seat across from Joanna, so the Lord could have an uninterrupted view of the girl. He gestured again and the serving boy filled their glasses, then took the covers off the first course, which was several steaming pots of soup.

Joanna simply smiles. "Thank you for the complement, my status as a Goddess is only known by a select few." She winks.

"I am fortunate to know the secret then." He replies to Joanna, as he takes his seat across from her.
As the soups are revealed Todric takes in the fine smells.
"Soup smells wonderful." He says, and then turning his focus back to Lady Joanna, "Have you ever visited the Riverlands?"

"Once, maybe twice for a feast here or there, many have desired my hand." She smiles.

Tybolt smirked. That isn't all they desired, dear sister. But he said nothing, merely spooning up the soup to his mouth. It tasted as good as it smelled.

"I do not doubt it, a girl as beautiful as you, and a Lannister besides." Todric replies to her. "I do hope you enjoyed the lands. The Rivers keep it lush."
Todric starts to eat his soup. "Many compliments to your cook, Tybolt, this soup is delicious."

"Many thanks, Lord Tully, though I fear it is the palace cooks and not my own. The Targaryens run a tight ship, with the best of everything." He pushed his bowl aside when he had finished with it. The serving boy hurried forward to take it. "So I take it you find my sister a very...desirable bride?" It was no secret that this was an arrangement for the good of their lands.

"I certainly do, Lord Lannister." Todric said with a smile. "Though I have not been single for so long simply because I desired it." He turns to the young lady. "It is also a matter of whether or not Lady Joanna finds me a desirable husband. We have just met, I am attracted to you, of course, but a man and a women must connect deeper than that."
Todric paused as he finished up his soup.
"For me to take a wife I prefer for her to love me rather than marry me for duty. Would you be willing to spend our time in Kingslanding with me? So we may get more acquainted, besides just one dinner."
