"No." Kesi answered. "But this is being boy that I spoke to you about."
She kept her hand on his shoulder.

Brandon nodded. "I understand. What's your name son?"

"Gendry, m'lord." The boy looked up at Brandon in mingled fear and admiration. "I wants to be a knight. She says I can be."
At first Brandon thinks the boy is about four or five years old but he speaks as if he were a bit older, so it seems that he is merely small for his age.

"I suppose you can be," Brandon said, "If you can find a knight to serve. How old are you?"

Kesi squeezed Gendry's shoulder.
"He is not knowing Ser." She said, delicately as if wanting to shield the boy from the questions.

"Don't know," Gendry confirme. "Never had nobody to tell me. Even Rosey don't know." He indicated the sick girl in the bed.

"Gendry be going to keep Rosey company." Kesi told the boy, waiting until he was gone.
"He was on streets." She said simply.

"And why did you bring them here?" Brandon asked.

"Is it truly mattering? They are being here now and being my responsibility." Kesi answered, she glanced at the bed where they both were. "I am needing little fingers in some of my work. Children are sometimes being of more use then not."

"And does his grace know? Was permission granted Brandon asked.

Kesi shrugged, making it clear that she hadnt asked.

He scowled, "Just because you are a guest in his grace's household does not permit you to invite whomever you please to enjoy the King's room and board," he reminded her. "While I doubt the King would begrudge you a helper for your work it's inappropriate for you to just assume permission."

"I was not planning to be finding them." Kesi said. "I cannot be asking permission if I am not knowing that I would be bringing them back, and if they will not survive."

"Not survive?" Brandon said, with a raised eyebrow, "What does that mean?"

"I would be thinking that a knight would know what no surviving meant." Kesi answered. "They are both being ill. The boy is being better but things can still be changing."

"You intentionally brought sickness, into the Red Keep?" Brandon said, recoiling in horror and taking a step back.

Kesi raised an eyebrow.
"Unless you can catch starvation then no." She answered coolly, slightly amused by the reaction. "If you are some strange being that can be catching something that has never been passed on to another before then yes."

"Starvation isn't an illness!" He said, raising his voice slightly, exasperated. "Speak plainly for once.' he scowled, "In an case, when they are better, have them both go to the steward to be assigned work duties. No one lives in the Red Keep, less they are in service to the King."

"See the steward anyway," Brandon said.
He turned to leave, having completely forgotten the reason for his coming.

"It was the first thing that I was doing." Kesi said, glancing once again at the two children. "Ser commander, you said that you were wanting to speak to me about something, other then the boy."

"Oh." He said, "Yes. Send the children out if you would."

Kesi seemed amused once again.
"It would be being easier if we were to step outside." She said. "The girl cannot be moving."

"The girl can stay," Brandon replied, tired of this smirking foreigner getting her way, "Boy, tell the cook in the kitchen the Lord Commander sent you down for some apple tarts. Wait while he makes them. Then wait outside, and enjoy as many as you like."
