Yes, the wrestling. [ Because you seem the type to want to roll around for sport is what he refrains from here. ] I'd be pleased if you'd allow me to spar with you in the coming weeks to prepare.
[ Don't hit him. He was thinking of axe throwing as well, but he's not going to mention this to someone who can hurt him enough without something sharp. ]
When Aegon is so sweetly pleasant her teeth almost want to fall out in protest, she sometimesβsometimes!βcan take him seriously. She can't help but wonder What's the catch? ]
You can't ask your brother to help you? You both seemed like experts in the lake.
I'm surprised someone like you would do as you're told.
[ Is there a compliment in there somewhere? Or a backhand? Zoya doesn't care to elaborate. His words hardly affect her. Call her foolishβshe did what she was good at, and she'd do it again even for Aegon. ]
Offer me something better unless you want me to remind you of what you've done to me, for which I have yet to hear an apology.
[ He takes longer to respond than usual, and there's a hint of agitation in his words he cannot quite hide. He abandons the topic of his brother's trip altogether, that he can only blame himself for, and hopes she Takes The Hint. ]
What could a lady like you, who has everything, possibly want?
[ He's forgotten whatever it was he's done to Zoya, so it's a good thing an apology is not what she's really after. She's never getting one! ]

Anyway, what are you intending on participating in? There's a reason for this question.

A few of them. I was considering wrestling and one of the weapon melees. I need to hit something.
[ Is he offering? Please be offering. ]

I didn't lead him into the Void and leave him there, Aegon.
I went in after him many times. Did you?

An I.O.U., where you don't complain and don't act like a brat when I ask for it.

You'd need to start now and work daily to get into shape in time for the tourney, Aegon.
