Who: Cersei & OPEN!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: onboard the Bishop
When: anytime. Witness the catchup post!
[Cersei isn't aware she's being filmed... this whole video thing is still new to her, though she's fairly certain she's figured out the ins and outs of it. She's been quiet, withdrawn; an unusual state for a Lannister. Mostly because she's seen Jaime on the videos and hasn't quite been able to bring herself to contacting him first. At the end of the day, Cersei is a Lannister and she certainly knows how to sulk with the best of them. Consequently, she's pulling one of her classic 'you didn't come to find me immediately, so now you're too late, figure out how to make it up to me without going off to Dorne' sulks.
She, of course, missed the one where he asked about her, naturally. Because when have things ever been easy when it came to Cersei Lannister?
Count your blessings, Jaime, that she's been too engrossed in her work this eve to notice the spectacle you've made of yourself.
No, she has been caught up in her own little world, carefully stretching her fingers as Captain. Things have run smoothly, so far, and there's a tiny part of her--okay, an exceedingly large part--that wishes there was some way to send this knowledge back to her long-dead father. Just so he can roll in his grave.
There's a different reason, however, as to why she's stayed withdrawn and the image shifts slightly to show the work in her hand. She's given up on her longer, flowy dresses and has taken to wearing the clothes of the day. Pants are still an interesting point of order, however. However, there's one thing she cannot abide and that is not having a Lannister lion adorning her clothing. So she has been working for the past few weeks, emblazoning the lion on the back of one of her jackets.
Yes, her. Stitching. You heard me.
She's not completely incompetent when it comes to the finer arts, even if she's always had her clothes made for her. She is, however, a lady and still remembers certain stitches from her youth. It may not be perfect but the smile on her face as she runs her fingers over the red and yellow is beatific.]

That is a beautiful lion... you must have put many hours of work into it.
[ She flashes a smile to the other woman, offering her a small but quick apologetic bow. ]
Please, forgive me for intruding. I could not help but admire your work.

Many hours, yes. [She picks up the garment, shifting it just enough so the girl can see it.] The compliment is kind of you. I very much appreciate it. [She sets it back down, picking up her needle once more.] They are symbols, back where I am from.
no subject
It is a gorgeous symbol, and the fact that you are able to make it look so beautiful just by memory of the image is such a commendable talent. [ She wasn't born yesterday, and being nobility herself she's got a suspicion that the lion symbol is one of a very noble house. She doesn't comment on that, though, because she can't really be sure and she isn't one to pry.
But everything about this woman screams nobility. ] Is it a family crest?
