The cavalier role is kind of like a bodyguard, but more like a partner. They're trained in swordsmanship, which I know almost nothing at all about. Camilla is her name; we've been together since we were children. You would like her.
[She's straightforward. Anyway, ooh, a name theming convention! Very House.]
Oh, I see. I think I understand. It sounds like a very close relationship, I'm sorry you're here without her.
Hmm a little bit, I suppose. There aren't many twins in our family thus far. The only others I know are my cousins, Baela and Rhaena. It's difficult for both mother and children to survive the birthing when twins are involved, so I'm not sure if there are more that didn't survive to their naming.
But we do reuse names quite a bit. Almost everyone is named after an ancestor or some variation of their name.
Me too, but I'd hate to see her unhappy here. I don't know how she'd feel about the soul.
[He knows how she'd feel about his soul, but that's different from, like-- a fucking bird or something. If Patho-Gen harmed Camilla Hect he would yank their entrails out through their nostrils and play jump rope with them, just for starters, so.
There would be pros and cons to her arrival. In any case,]
I see. That's unfortunate to learn about twin births; your doctors must not be putting in the appropriate effort for prenatal care. And, if you'll keep indulging me, how do you differentiate between people with reused names?
I can understand there. There are a few people I would be quite sad to see here. [For different reasons at least.
But ahah. Ha...]
I don't mind. I like talking for my family. I supposed people just tend to know. And the names don't usually repeat too much within the same generation. Most of them have other titles. My husband is Aegon II Targaryen, for example. If you were to refer to him, you would say' King Aegon II usually. If you were to be speaking of our great-great- etc grandsire, you would refer to him as 'Aegon the Conqueror.'
It can be confusing for outsiders though, I suppose. Our family tree gets quite complicated at times.
My father, Viserys, had Rhaenyra in his first marriage. His second marriage with my mother he had me, Aegon, Aemond, and Daeron. Aegon and I have the twins, as I mentioned.
Rhaenyra married Laenor Velaryon and had Jacaerys, Lucerys, and Joffrey. Our uncle Daemon had two daughters from his second marriage to Laena Velaryon, Baela and Rhaena. When Laena passed, Daemon married Rhaenyra and they had sons Aegon and Viserys.
Normally we will specify which child we're speaking of when speaking of them to limit the confusion, however. Since my father passed, if someone speaks of Viserys it's generally known that they would mean my sister's son, not our father.
[Oh, they absolutely don't have consanguinity tables in House Targaryen, that's—interesting to have confirmed. He'd suspected something was off the first time she explained her various family connections here in the city, but it's explicit now.
That's... something to know. Good? In the context of, well, context? Hm.]
I imagine royalty is like that. People just knowing things about your family, that is. It sounds like it works for you in context with the occasional numerical reference, although not like ours back home.
[Camilla the Sixth, for example, is not the sixth Camilla of her line. That's just where she lives. It makes complete sense and has never been at all strange, ever.]
I can remember this, though, so you've got one less confused outsider to worry about. Having such a big family must be interesting! I'm my parents' only child. Camilla has a half-sister, but she's older than us by a bit, so we didn't spend much time together growing up. Cam's my second-cousin.

[haha....... He can't comment on how her dreams seem to go, hm, ignored? Not taken seriously? But he'll remember that, for context.]
I miss my cavalier, and my mother and my friends. What are your children's names?
no subject
What is a cavalier? [She's not sure if it has a different meaning from what she understands one to be.]
My son's name is Jaehaerys, after my great-grandsire. And my daughter is Jaehaera, as a feminine form of the name to match her twin brother.
