A whole lotta' scrolls goin' on.

Joffery was in his room, it was massive, huge bed with wood pillars and curtains of rolled up mosquito netting which he didn't unfurl unless he was going to sleep. A walk-in closet was on one side, packed with royal prince duds he had to wear. He wondered what he would give just to be able to wear sweats and a slobs old t-shirt. He also missed his dark levis. The other side a huge dresser he could keep under clothes as a man who liked to wear boxers, braise and under tunics were close to boxers and white undershirts. Joffery was shaving with a straight razor, he insisted to shave his own face. It took him a week to learn and now it became a routine novelty for him. He stood before the mirror, he had grown taller 6 foot 5 to be exact, his body was lithe like a Lannister but for his arms and legs which were well muscled. He made sure of that by using logs and cut branches of different sizes to lift and carry. Super strength was fine but he was body shaping. He wore what he considered hippie hair long blond and parted down the middle he felt young. He was young for the body he inherited was now 15 years old. He had traces of the old Grim which nobody noticed but him. His is face was a bit wider at the jaw and when he smiled he had dimples. His eyes were no longer green his own baby blue eyes there. Other than that, he was Joffery who everyone who may by chance notice figured that his changes did a growing lad of 15.

Joffery put on his most comfortable outfit which was trousers, tunic, leather vest, coat, red cloak with a stag and a lion facing away from each other. he spent the day with Tommen and Myrcella just carefree he made them laugh a lot. Later sleep would not come insomnia reared its ugly face at him and he tossed and turned. He gave up and got up. Put on a Robe and walked with the guard to the place where they kept the only Godswood tree in the Crown lands. He sat by the Heart Tree. Joffery looked up at the stars to see if he could find the big dipper. He sighed and looked directly at the face which resembled the sad face one might see next to a happy one at the beginning of any old Comedy short. It made him think of the three stooges, and he missed watching Mo, Larry, and Curly. He went " woop woop woop", chuckled at himself and then concentrated heavily on the tree. He touched the face closed his eyes and thought of Kerry Ann.

Immediately she heard him, spoke mind to mind. 'Grim it is good to hear from you, why are you calling ?'

Joffery sighed 'Gee I miss you Kerry Ann. Have you kept an eye on the old Godfather of Pain ?'

Kerry Ann 'Grim you are a good man and yes I watch you, I always have and always will look out for you. When you marry her too. She will meet me Grim, don't worry my son.'

Joffery 'I want to be able to augment any pet I have. Any animal ally I make, like my Raven, Pal, can I give them superpowers? I would also love to be able to call on any animal with my mind from a distance too.'

Kerry Ann paused, 'Hmm I can see where you are going with this. Why haven't I thought of this'. Kerry Ann then happily said, 'done and keep up the good work Boy King. Before I go I want to also let you know that you can give Pal any powers you think necessary. You can heal anyone you want, use wisdom on that. One more thing ... Grim, have fun '.

That next week Joffery had a big cage built in his room with the back half opened to the window. He paid the people that worked the Raven keep handsomely for Pal. Now Joffery finally had his own Raven and 'fine feathered friend' nearby. Next time he was with Pal he waved his hand at Pal to give him more powers. Pal now had a way to hear the heartbeat of any person his human asked his feathered bro to fly to. Joffery also gave his bird an aura of invulnerability. The empowerment was important for that made sure Pal could not be shot down nor eaten by any predators. Since Pal could hear anyone's heartbeat from miles and miles away he now could find anyone, anywhere, anytime. Like any raven or crow, Pal never forgot a face.

Joffery wanted dire-wolves so he sent telepathic mind calls to hopefully find three dire-wolves. The calls went to six places covering the entire planet. One to Dorne, One to Essos, One to The River lands of which Nymeria ignored, One to as far as Yi Ti, One to The Grass Sea and one to the North. This psionic ability was new to Joffery, his first try at it. One female wolf, responded, she hopped aboard a ship. She was grey and white with sky blue eyes like a malamute. She was as big as a Horse. She befriended the Captain, he gave her lots of fish heads and she slept a lot .

She traveled to Lannisport then walked to Kings Landing sniffing the rancid air. By now she was great with pups. She got gasps from people who made way for her King Joffery ordered some guards to find her and lead her safely to him. She wasn't hard to miss. They led the Dire Wolf to King as commanded.

Cerise's eyes were wide Joffery looked at her and smiles "Mom, she's beautiful! this huge mamma Dire wolf walked up to Cersei and sniffed her hand wined and licked her hand. Cersei at first was terrified but this seemed to pacify her so she patted the huge mamma wolf's head and turned to walk to the gardens. Joffery knelt and hugged this huge k-9 thought she looked like a giant Alaskan Husky on steroids. She walked up to The King sniffed his hand and huffed, then sat at his feet. Joffery stroked her coat of thick soft fur "I name you Alaska ."

A bond was formed, it was unexpected, it made Joffery feel very protective of her. He really felt like a father to this huge K9. Joffery mind talked. 'Alaska you are named after a great northern state in the USA nation of my birth .'

Alaska responded ' I can hear you as clearly as if you were speaking pack master!'

Joffery smiled 'Call me Joffery, call me anything but late for supper.' Joffery laughed in is thoughts and out loud as he was petting her.

Alaska 'Joffery you are witty my pack master. '

Joffery 'As King I am pack master for everyone in the darn realm.' Joffery stood and she followed.

Joffery 'Let's go say hi to my brother and sister and then we will go to the Godswood tree where you can have your cubs in peace and safety. '

Alaska 'With joy I follow you, my good pack master'

Joffery brought her straight to his siblings. Tommen and Marcella, all had a ball petting the huge wolf, playing games like tug of war with her. In a week she had 8 pups.

Joffery was sure to include fish heads in Alaska's huge dog dish along with freshwater boiled then chilled for her water bowl. Tommen and Myrcella loved her and Alaska loved them.

Since this worked out so well Joffery wanted to some raise some dragons and give some to his friends. He sent out one team to find dragon eggs. He thought that it would be a long shot but what the heck. To Joffery's surprise and delight they brought back 7eggs. Joffery hid these eggs. One for Tyrion, Tommen, Myrcella, Sansa, Jon, Arya and one for himself. The thought of how they would react made him smile.

From Joffery Baratheon First of His name King and Protector of the Realm

To: Lady Caitlyn Stark 1st Lady of Winterfell

Dear Lady Stark,

Please note that a leather satchel was sent along with this scroll. You will then see who was responsible for setting the stage for the unfortunate war between Lannister and Stark houses. I am sad that I found this too late and I do hope my small efforts to get your family home safe paves a way for peace between our houses. I was attacked by Petyr Balish and in defending myself he lost his life. You may have heard about this Lady Stark. Petyr could not stand trial for his crimes. You have in the leather satchel iron clad proof of Petyr Baelish complicity and those responsible along with, motives and opportunity. I am sorry to tell you that Lysa your sister was complicit. I will leave her fate up to you. The Crown will not pursue her. Now for something happy. A large Dire wolf as big as a pony found her way to Kings Landing and adopted me! She has a white face, grey ears with pale eyes the color of the sky. Her back is grey but her wide belly is white as is her upper legs and tail. Her feet and wide paws are grey. I named her after the northernmost state among the other 49 of the United States of America the country of my birth, Alaska. Alaska had her puppies near the only Heart Tree in King's Landing. When I come to Winterfell, Alaska and 3 of her pups will be with me. There is one for Sansa and one for you and one for Lord Stark . Myrcella and Tommen love her so, they might come with me as well. Lady Stark. You have a lovely daughter, I miss her so much. Myrcella misses Sansa too. Just to think one day Sansa will be my Queen makes me smile ear to ear. Sansa is wise for a girl her age you know. We had talked for hours before I sent her home to Winterfell. We discussed life, politics, the arts, even professional wrestling she is awesome Lady Stark . My crazy Uncle joined us often you know he is a master of humor. I will have you know Sansa not only listened but added japes from her own growing wit, she is so savvy Lady Stark . I do believe she gets much if her brilliant mind from you. One day I will be happy to call you my Good Mother.

with respect and care

King Joffery

She put down the scroll and stared out the window watching the Raven fly away. She was surprised that Pal flew right to her door and cawed for her. Instead of having to go and fetch the scroll during her daily duties as the First Lady of Winterfell. The scroll also could have been brought to her by Maester Luwin, but that Raven flew to her!

Caitlyn then walked outside and saw Robb and Jeyne walking out to the Tiltyard with Greywind between them and thought what a faithful wolf. Caitlyn thought of how good the dire wolves are to her children and was sad for Sansa and Arya that their wolves were gone. Now Joffery is giving 3 dire wolf pups from his very own Dire wolf. Even she, a Tully will get one. This will be good she was sure of it and so would take her time naming him or her.

She sighed, walked back to her room and opened up the leather satchel, lit the lantern and began inspecting the contents. Read them and re-read each one." Oh Lysa, what have you done ?" She took them to Ned shaking with anger and tears. Ned stood and held her tight letting her bury her face in Ned's shoulder and weep. He would read them later now he needed to let her cry.

To The Night Watch Ranger Jon Snow

Dear Jon,

I hope this scroll finds you and Ghost well. I plan on making a royal visit to the wall someday soon and when I see you I want you to buy you a beer, or is that ale? Jon Snow, you're a young man of honor. They say you brood, well Jon I know that it appears that you brood and are morose but really, its because you internalize everything, you are a serious thinker. You go out and range and encounter all kinds of dangers. Careful of the wights and white walkers Jon. I know you are brave I need you to be safe as well. I wish every Brother of the Night's watch was like you, Jon. I trust you. let me tell you my 2 most important goals for all the realm. First to unify the realm to make ready for the long night. I know about the white walkers, the wights, and the evil Great Other. I have told very few . They might think I am a crazy King. I don't want to piss off too many nobles-yet. Making peace is something all can agree is a good goal. It is a burden I carry. If I have to I will bring the Realm kicking and screaming to peace through negotiation alliances and if need be: sigh, military action. I hate war. The other goal I have is a personal one, I want to marry your sister Sansa Stark and she feels the same way. She is my she-wolf my sweet winter rose and my savvy partner. I will tell you more next year when Sansa, Lord Stark and I visit the wall. Be safe my friend.

Kind Regards

King Joffery

Jon read the scroll as Pal the raven watched him. Jon felt the eyes of the raven on him as he read. Then Jon was done, looked up at the raven, Pal turned his head to the side looked at the scroll then peered up at Jon and cawed then took off and flew away.

Jon gave the scroll to Sam "A scroll from his grace King Joffery. For me personally what do you think?"

Sam read, his eyes as big as saucers "The king is coming to the wall? "

Jon grinned "aye and wants to buy me an ale." They both laughed than Sam and Jon stopped and

Sam said incredulously "Jon, the King knows, Joffery knows!?"

Jon frowned and said "Aye, I don't know how but he says he does, seems to me he may be sincere. "

Sam smiled "Jon your sister and the king?"

Jon " My father's scrolls told me what happened. I find it quite difficult to believe such a prick and coward as Joffery has been to all of a sudden changed so much. I saw him at Winterfell. I just don't trust him but that Sam is between you and I. brother."

To Maester Aemon Targereon of The Night Watch

Dear Maester Aemon,

I have sent a scroll to Daenerys Targaryen and told her about your existence and faithful service to the realm, Meister Aemon. She may write to you ,I do hope she will. Please have Jon Snow brought to you so you may read this to him. Make sure the one reading this scroll will never reveal what truth is uncovered. I the King have told no one. You will understand why I asked you to hear this too. After all these years, as a Targereon you are not alone. This is serious. Jon Snow, you need to know this for Lord Stark has been keeping you alive, protecting you from my Father King Robert. This secret he could not even share with his own dear wife for fear of word getting to King Robert. I am not my father, I hold no ill will to any Targereon. You need to know this, Lord Stark is your blood but he is your Uncle. For you are no bastard, Jon, you are the legitimate son of Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark . Pause for a moment, breathe everyone, let that sink in. Jon. Your Uncle Lord Eddard Stark promised his sister with tears rolling down the "Quiet Wolf's" face as Lyanna lay dying that he would protect you her son. For her last words were promise me, Ned. I green saw this. Rhaegar was never able to meet you, Jon, he sired you and that was all. For all other aspects of parenthood, Ned was, always have been and is your father. He loves you Jon never doubt that. I am eager to make a royal visit to the wall so I can personally hand you a Royal Legitimacy Order. Write to me Jon, tell me what name you wish, do think about this. Jon hangs in there buddy, I know this is a heavy message to hear read to you. Don't give up and most importantly, may you live long and prosper.

Kindest Regards

King Joffery

Maester Aemon walked over and hugged Jon as tears streaked down his face. Aemon had sensed that Jon might be a Targereon somehow but this scroll confirmed it. Jon was in a dazed and confused funk.

Jon said through tears stinging his eyes " My mother, I wanted my father to tell me who she is and then this, this King tells me my mother is Aunt Lyanna! Lord Stark, my father is my uncle? Maester Aemon I am- am ."

Maester Aemon nodded the old man spoke softly finishing Jon's sentence "Family Jon, you are my family, I am your great, great uncle and Lord Stark is your uncle as well. I seem to be in good company Jon. I think you have much to consider you should sleep on this and then write to your father and his grace the King. Take this scroll to send it with the scroll you will write your 'father ' as I am sure Lord Stark still loves you like a true father."

Jon wiped his eyes, hugged Maester Aemon like a son would his father and took the scroll. In his room he turned up the lantern and began to write, in flew Pal, Pal waited as Jon wrote his letter to Ned Stark. Jon paused looked at Pal "how did you know ?"

Pal cawed, Jon finished his letters to the king a very brief letter and to Ned Stark, he had to think of what he could ask him and not be read as an angry received both letters while in his solar from Pal. He read them and then stared at the wall. He wondered how Joffery could know this. Green Sight? Now Aemon Targereon knows too as well as whoever read the king's scroll to the blind Maester.

Ned felt his hand being forced and wasn't happy.

Ned called his family into the crypts and they all came with their dire-wolves in tow.

Ned "I called you here to read for you Jon Snow's letter to me."

Caitlyn grumbled, "Why must we all be here for a letter by him?"

Ned sighed and read it.

To Lord Paramount of the North and Warden of The North Eddard Stark

Dear Father,

I remember that you told me that you would tell me who my mother is someday. I have been waiting. I sent you the letter that King Joffery Baratheon sent to Maester Aemon Targaryen. I want to ask your father is this all true? Are you my Uncle? Is Lyanna Stark my mother and is my father really Rhaegar Targaryen? If this is not true will you then tell me who IS my mother? I don't know what to think. Can you help me? Am I a bastard? Am I the son of a dead Prince? Since King Joffery offered to legitimize me and despite what or who I really am I will tell his grace I choose the name Stark.

sincerely

Jon

Once read, immediately Rob asked "Well -father- is it true? It's clear to me and it changes nothing, he is my brother nobody will ever change that "

Jeyne clutched Robb's hand tight and smiled reassuringly.

All eyes on Ned as he looked at Robb then each person in the Crypt eye to eye, then said only one word, "Aye".

Then he looked down and told them the tale of the last time he saw his sister Lyanna. A Tear or two rolled down his face.

"So Jon is my nephew." Caitlyn yelled, "NED HOW COULD YOU LIE TO US ALL FOR SO LONG. "

She ran out all the way to their room and locked herself in. She knew why he had to lie but she was furious. She vowed to treat Jon as part of her family now hoping he would come home. As for her Ned, she will make him sleep in his solar for a few nights. She wept and felt shame for how she treated Jon, anger at Joffery for being a nosey King and anger at Lyanna surely she could have sent a scroll to let her father know. How she had prayed to the Gods to spare Jon and promised to be like a mother to him but failed to, she wondered if God's were giving her another chance. She so wished Jon could be home.

Sansa said, "Oh father you could have trusted Mother she is heartbroken ."

She walked out, ran to her room and hugged her pillow as she cried. She wished she had been a better sister to Jon and now missed really missed him.

Arya said" He is always my brother this won't change that. I am glad he wants to be a Stark. You should have told him before he let Uncle Benjen talk him into going to that stupid wall! Now he is stuck for life at the wall" Arya walked out gripping Needle tears stinging her eyes and how she missed Jon.

The rest followed her out leaving Ned by himself looking up at Lyanna's likeness on her crypt. Ned walked out eventually set down in his solar, ran his hand through his hair and wrote a raven scroll to Jon. A short one which told him that indeed Lyanna Stark is his mother.

Joffery received Sansa's scroll and Jon Snow's very short scroll. It mealy said I want to be a Stark. Joffery smiled and thought ' Good kid .' Then he read Sansa's letter saving the best one for last.

Dear Joffery

I miss you, your wit and especially your kisses my King. We will have much to discuss when you come to Winterfell. Can I go to the wall with you? I love your poems dearest and I do try to see how they would sound on the harp. I am also making a surprise for you. You will see and I hope you approve. A lady who has got to be the tallest I have ever seen arrived earlier today. She is a sworn sword to my Mother, Arya, Jeyne and me. She seems nice and is incredibly strong She is training Arya. Now I have to say I am a bit sore at you. My family is in an uproar about my brother Jon, I wish you could have told me first.I know you have your reasons. I do miss you so much dear Joffery

with hearts and flowers

Sansa

Joffery burned the letters Jon sent to keep him safe. Joffery wondered how Jon reacted when he had received the news, he figured it was a shock to him. Joffery knew it wasn't his business but as a fan of the HBO show, he couldn't help himself. he decided the sooner he knew the better.

Then he sat down to write, he had two parchments as Pal cawed at him. Joffery decided to answer Sansa's scroll before and then he would write the Mother of Dragons. On the TV show, Daenerys was his favorite non-Stark Character. He really looked forward to meeting her for real.

To Sansa the Queen of my heart

I never wanted to cause stress in your family, you been through so much already. Forgive me for being such a dumb ass. I trust you, as you know I have shared with you all I have done as King so far. But for not sharing that with you I am such a bum. I want you to know my love that when I come to Winterfell I will make it up to you, after hundreds of hugs and kisses and honey n lemon cakes. I will bring you with me to the wall. How else can I kiss you at the top of the world? I will indeed bring your Father and whoever else wants to come to see Jon. I will have his legitimacy papers with me to give him personally. I want to also relieve him from his vows at the wall. Jon will make a great liaison between the free folk and the Wall. Jon doesn't need to stay a Night watch Ranger. I will do my best to show him a better way to serve. I will assign Samwell Tarley to the Citadel along with his love Gilly. Ain't I the romantic? Following us to the wall Tommen, Tyrion and Myrcella along with a few I hope will come with us namely Daenerys Targereon, Oberon Martell, maybe her dragons. As you know Alaska had her puppies and oh they are so cute. She will ride first class with Tyrion in the wheelhouse with her puppies. Wish me luck as I will soon visit Stannis ' Mannis' Baratheon (ha). Hope to gain him as an ally. My Grandfather is my hand and I ain't sure about him but I am hoping he will be helpful. He can be unpredictable. The Mother of Dragons I hope to ally with so a raven scroll to her first but I may have to go to Essos to see her. I ain't got a secretary of state, yet. Until then your Joffery will be a negotiator in chief or something.

your such an angel to me

Sansa when I am with you I am free

hair red like loves fire

my honey you're a live wire

and if I had the sun and moon

I would give you night and day

I love you Sansa in every way

To Daenerys Targaryen, Storm Born, Queen of the Andals and the Roynar, The Unburned and The Mother of Dragons

Dearest Daenerys

I sent my favorite raven, Pal is his name, he won't leave till you open the seal and read it, he is quite smart. I want to share with you the good news that another Targereon lives. Meister Aemon Targereon is the wise elderly man who is your great, great Uncle and still alive and well. Sadly to say he is blind but he is so wise and like a kind father to all the brothers of the night watch he is well-loved. Your grace, they call me grace too but my name is Joffery (ha). If I was in a room having tea with you and someone called and said 'your grace' we would both answer "yes?" .(ha) I hope that made you smile. I would love to see your children they must be magnificent and gorgeous. Do they breathe fire? When the Usurper died I was made the king. Those nitwits in charge thought I would be their puppet. Your grace, they didn't count on me being my own man. They had no idea that I am a man of peace and serious about protecting the realm. I want to bring peace to the realm in order to prevent war and ready everyone for the long night. The second goal of my Kingship is personal; to marry my she-wolf my sweet winter rose Sansa Stark. Please tell me what you think of my 2 goals. Now as for you, I have no quarrel you are the best. I respect and admire you. I really wish we could be allies. Nevertheless, that is quite up to you, your grace. You are a class act and I don't blame you for amassing an army. Truth be told, such an army would be quite welcome to help us all face the long night. I will keep you informed on my progress to bring peace to the realm. I also hope to make you smile with each raven I send you. May you live long and prosper.

peace be to you

King Joffery

Daenerys smiled a few times as she read, giggled at the humor, then her forehead wrinkled a look of concentration and then rolled the scroll. She rose and went to her children. She had survived The House of the Undying, she had her children back and knew in a day or two they would make the journey to Astapor the Red City to get her army of Unsullied. She hated slavery, she had to think of something. This Usurper letter was so unexpected she really was unsure how to feel about him her enemy.

"Usurper King is witty, seems to be affable enough, my children what do you think ?"

Drogon let a snort with smoke. The other two just looked at their mother intently. She then walked to the food tent, returned with a lavish plate of food and ate, she left a good portion of the octopus and shrimp for her children. Her Dragons love seafood.

Dear Grandfather,

I look forward to your return to King's Landing, it will be good to work together for the betterment of all the realm. This scroll is succinct and to the point. My goal as King, to bring real peace to the realm. I was glad when hostilities between the great houses Lannister and Stark ceased. I welcome any advice or counsel you can give me to keep the peace. My heart's goal is to marry my she-wolf my sweet winter rose Sansa Stark. I will tell you more when you arrive back here.

Kind regards

King Joffery

Tywin Lannister read the scroll, scowled and crumpled the scroll in his hand as Pal flew away. Tywin was going to set this young fool straight .he may be King but he was a Lannister. Tywin was glad it was evening and he had some peace to go over things without being disturbed. Whatever people would dare to say of him one thing was sure, he was his own slave to routine. Every evening he would have his apple and look out the window and watch the waves of the ocean. Tonight he would first write a raven scroll while munching on a fresh red delicious apple. He bit his apple and unfurled fresh parchment. Then he paused eating half the apple. Then with an ink feather in his hand about to write, he takes a bite of the apple but swallows wrong! No Heimlich maneuver invented yet, he chokes to death and his head hit his desk with a thud. Hours later he is found by Kevan Lannister.

There is a grand and sad funeral at Casterly Rock, Cersei could not be consoled as she wept Jaimie holding her. Tywin is mourned and after a few suns, according to his will, Jaimie Lannister is named The Lord Of Casterly Rock. He must find a wife and raise heirs. Soon Jaimie began to meet with prospective wives. Cersei traveled back to King's Landing disgusted that Jaimie decided to actually get his own wife.

Each member of the King's Court or Small Council received a copy of this letter. Then King Joffery read it to them.

To Warden Paramount of the East Master of Ships Stannis Baratheon

Dear Uncle Stannis,

I look forward to visiting Lady Selese, you and my cousin Shereen soon. I hope we can work together Uncle, to bring peace to the realm As you know hostilities between House Stark and Lannister have ceased since I sent Lord Stark and his daughters home safely. As far as I am concerned we are family. Ours is the fury but the realm is sick of war. It's the poor, women, children and the elderly who suffer the most during a war. War is nasty. For as King bringing peace is my first priority as a protector of the realm. I welcome any advice or counsel you can give me on this serious matter. I hope we can talk at length of this when I come to Storms End.

Kind regards

The Setting: Joffery is a showman. a wrestler and a Grim Darkthorn he loved his fans considered them family. Likewise, Joffery loves his subjects sees them as family. Joffery sees being the King like being the World heavyweight wrestling Champion, sometimes. His attitude is like Peter Parker, 'With great power comes great responsibility'
