Call me Petyr

Lord Petyr Baelish visits Lord Frey at The Twins proposing the Lannister business.

"Lord Frey!" greeted Petyr Baelish, his smile pulling his left cheek into his mouth.

"Lord Petyr Baelish!" replied Lord Walder Frey with his regular cunning look and sunken voice.

"What brings you to the Twins, Lord Baelish? Lannister business?" he asked.

"I bring you good news, Lord Frey. In continuation of the deal that you made with Tywin Lannister." started Petyr.

"The Late Tywin Lannister!" Walder Frey interrupted.

"Yes, The Late Tywin Lannister! The King - His Grace, would continue his faith with House Frey if House Frey holds the Riverlands intact for His Grace which I believe is not the case with Riverrun being taken back by the Blackfish whom His Grace hoped would be dead or in the dungeons of The Twins." Petyr smirked.

"The Blackfish. He smells of rot. He holds one castle in the Riverlands and Cersei Lannister squirts her cunt off." Walder Frey replied with his usual clamour.

"I took you for a whoremonger, Lord Petyr Baelish. Here you are Lord of Harrenhal, Lord Protector of the Vale. Why should I trust your cunt words?" he asked.

"You are well aware of the rumors of Lady Sansa Stark and Jon Snow planning on retaking Winterfell from the Boltons. The Blackfish would rally behind the Starks. And if Winterfell is won which rather seems impossible at the moment, would House Frey be able to keep the Twins? The Starks would declare Northern Independence again. Let us take on the Blackfish and Ramsay Bolton would take care of the Starks. Jaime Lannister would bring the Lannister forces to your aid in retaking Riverrun and gutting the Blackfish. I could have lent you the Knights of the Vale but the Lannisters to show their good faith have sent the Lannister forces with Jaime Lannister at command." Petyr reasoned.

"I took you for a Master of whores! And, here you are doing the Lannisters dirty work!" remarked Lord Frey.

"We do the same dirty work, Lord Walder!" Petyr replied.

"What benefits you from all of this? Men like you and me seek only our profit. We lick others boots for some time but our intentions are solely to take everything for us." Walder Frey asked.

"Our intentions are the wellbeing of our houses, Lord Frey." Petyr replied.

After informing Lord Walder Frey of the arrival of the Lannister forces to retake Riverrun from the Blackfish, Lord Petyr Baelish left to Riverrun. The Freys had left their trenches from Riverrun and had gone to The Twins to meet Lord Walder Frey after failing in their moronic attempts to bring out the Blackfish from Riverrun.

"Why have the Lannisters sent you here, Lord Petyr Baelish?" asked a resounding Brynden Tully.

"If you are very sure of not giving up the castle, why let me in, Ser Blackfish Tully?" replied Petyr.

"You married my niece and that could make you my family, Lord Petyr Baelish." said the Blackfish.

"It could. Call me Petyr!" said Petyr with a fake innocence.

"'Call me Petyr!' Is that how you tricked Cat into releasing the Kingslayer?" asked the Blackfish.

"Sansa Stark is safe with her half-brother Jon. I made sure of it. I risked bringing her back to the North." replied Petyr.

"You brought her to the North to give her to the Boltons!" said the Blackfish.

"I made a mistake. I regret it. Jon Snow and Sansa Stark are calling the Stark banners to fight the Boltons and retake Winterfell. If you leave the castle and join with me and the Knights of the Vale we could beat the Boltons and with a Stark in Winterfell we can take the Riverlands." pitched Baelish.

"The Riverlands? You already have the Vale and Harrenhal if I remember the reward the Lannisters gave you. And, now you want me to abandon my castle and side with your Knights of the Vale to fight the Boltons?" replied the Blackfish.

"We can beat the Frays and the Boltons. Don`t you want to avenge Cat?" asked Petyr.

"House Tully is my blood. I will not avenge my family with those who dishonored my family." said the Blackfish.

"So, be it!" thought Petyr as he walked away scheming new stratagem to take the North.
