His deepset eyes regarded her uncomfortably. This was not a man made for easy courtesies. "I am sorry for your lord's death," he said, "though Eddard Stark was no friend to me." — A Clash of Kings - Catelyn III

Stannis snorted. "I know Janos Slynt. And I knew Ned Stark as well. Your father was no friend of mine, but only a fool would doubt his honour or his honesty. You have his look." — A Storm of Swords - Jon XI 

Stannis gave a curt nod. "Your father was a man of honour. He was no friend to me, but I saw his worth. Your brother was a rebel and a traitor who meant to steal half my kingdom, but no man can question his courage. What of you?" — A Storm of Swords - Jon XI

"Lord Eddard was no friend to me, but he was not without some sense. He would have given me these castles." — A Dance with Dragons - Jon I

Okay Stannis. Ned was no friend to you, we get it. CHILL.

Grim inhabited each display of arrogance throughout the corridors he left in his wake. The castle’s decorum, though ornate and dare he say lavish in its detail, was none short of eerie— a catalyst for the cold that taunted him within his spine. Had this been its intent, its construction meant to subdue through chilling grandeur? Those who inspire fear have more devoted followers than those who preach love—. yet, the people under Targaryen rule would see never these walls, they would never walk these corridors as he was now; so why was a seat so cold and ominous, while its ambitions seemed nothing other than grandiose? Spoke this, instead, of the character of these former rulers? Spoke this of Aerys II‘s heart? It must, for how could any other man find appreciation for actions of such cruelty? A gripped fist at his side would show emotional restraint.

         “ ROBERT ISN’T COMING. ”  He barely spares a glance at his brother as he feels the heavy disapproval that emanates from being in his presence.  Neither should be surprised by it either, he gave very little regard to his brothers when there there were more important things for the king to do, like sleep with every woman in the realm if he could.  Placing the quill down, he waves a hand at an empty chair — an offering for a moment of peace.  “ If you had something important to say, you would have better luck painting it on the side of a boar. ”

Even though he didn’t want Stannis to see him frightened, Renly was glad that he had come. There was no storm, but the castle became more scary as days went bay. Darker, with less people in it. Bravely, he left the puppet dog he was holding aside — ‘Sneaky’, the real dog had ran away, Maester Cressen had said and Renly wondered if it could reach Robert and tell him to hurry back home.   Fidgeting the blanket with his one hand, he wiped the corner of his nose with the other and nodded. ❝The mad King won the war and they told us we would never ever see Robert again. And then they came here for us and they sayed they would kill us because we are traitors and they would feed us to the dragons who still breathed fire.❞ he sniffed and scooted closer to his brother.  ❝It was really scary, the Mad King was so tall and huge, taller than you! But that will not happen, will it Stannis? Robert won’t let us get hurt. ❞ Renly decided to stand on his bed to reach him better. It was a secret after all, he was supposed to be really quiet ❝He will send us food yesterday, honeycakes and potatoes and grapeses, the magic bird says so. What do you want it to bring? It is magic so it can be anything!❞
