[ A wooden sword sounds even better than using dulled steel. It's bound to hurt less. But after Van's guidance, Baelish sounds moderately amused. ]

It sounds to me as though someone has tried to swindle you a time or two. I shall exercise caution in my purchase, you have my word. And I will seek something of quality to use. Although admittedly there is a difference in quality between those from a world that does not regularly utilize swords and those from a world like yours or mine.

[That point is debatable, as Baelish is sure to find out if wood winds up the chosen material of whatever blade he finds himself wielding during training. But the point either way won't be to cause harm or pain...and that's something else Petyr's bound to learn the more time he spends with Van.

For as well trained as the young king is in combat, for as handy as he is with a sword and however quick he might be to unsheathe that blade when threatened, he doesn't like to hurt people.]

Hm...merchants have tried, but I can't say they've ever succeeded. I know good steel.

[A pause, and then with noted pride he adds...]

If you need help picking out a weapon to use, just say so.

[ He lets out a soft, flattering laugh after Van's comment -- as though laughing at the expense of those who attempted to pull one over on the young king. ]

Well, I must say I trust your opinion more than my own. Let us plan a day where we may shop for a proper blade. Some time after the voting is done. I will be in touch, Your Grace. And hopefully with no more scars to add to my list in the meantime.

Hopefully.

[A sincere wish. They don't know one another very well yet, but Van would prefer Petyr not come to any further harm.]

I look forward to hearing from you, Lord Baelish.
