Knuckles white from clenching, Daeron has half a mind to straighten out this bitch by popping out a few of her pretty teeth. That’d teach her not to fuck with him. When, however, he looks over at Ser Addam he changes his mind.
Companions don’t take the easy path, not if it’s the wrong one.
He opens his hand, literally and figuratively.
“You work for us now. Not as a dancer mind you, that’s none of our concern, but as our eyes and ears. Every day you can hear and see things that we’re not privy to, and every day you will meet us in the market near the stand of that Westerman who sells those soft cheeses. There you will tell us what you’ve learned, especially concerning the Hooded Man, Lord Eldon, and anything else we ask. Each day you will be paid, quite well, for this information, but the consequences for failure will be quite high. Not showing up, or betraying us will lead to Bittersteel learning who spread those rumors, and he’s not half as kind or forgiving a man as myself. If that man is on your trail, there’s nowhere in Westeros or beyond the Narrow Sea that’s safe.”
Daeron’s tone makes it clear that he’s not willing to entertain lesser offers.
What should I roll for this? Convince, Bargain, or Intimidate?

"Wait, you actually think I spread those rumors? Not just want me to lie to Lord Tyrell about it?" She looks at him with even more confusion.

“That’s exactly what I’m saying. We’ve both received information connecting you to the Hooded Man and his crimes and fingering you as the enigmatic Falcon. I’m not looking for you to bear false testimony, but to tell us everything.”

"All I did was to pass along messages, ser, I couldn't even tell you if the man that picked him up is the one you seek" She finally admits to at least that. "The Falcon I am not"

“Let me be the judge of that. Who delivered messages to you? Who did you pass them to? Describe them.”

"They are dangerous and powerful men, the kind that will have no qualms about silencing me forever if they suspect that I might betray what I know about them" She appears to fear them more than Addam and Daeron. "There are always others who can pass along messages"

Daeron growls: "I assure you that we're every bit as dangerous as those men, except that we're here right now, and they're lounging in a tent somewhere.
If you can testify to us and Lord Tyrell, we can find you protection and the power of these men brought low. They, through their operative, have made some powerful enemies these past weeks and will be too concerned about keeping their own heads than hunting for yours."

“I can only imagine that you’ll have your throat slit as they leave Highgarden and return to their holdfasts in a few days. I doubt that they’d allow for loose ends.
As it stands your best chance is to testify and gain some protection. Once publicly identified, these lords wouldn’t be able to move against you.”

And to what would I testify, ser?

"Details of the men whose messages you're passing back and forth. You might not know their identities, but Lord Leo might."

"Do you have lands, ser? Or do you serve another?" She suddenly asks for unknown reasons.

Her question surprises him, but he deigns to answer in the hope that it might lead to her giving him more information as it seemed that she wouldn't be of much value as a witness.
"I serve another. A lord who is noble and interested in unraveling this plot before any more innocents may be harmed."

"And who would that be?"

His eyes narrow in suspicion.
"Why does this matter to you? I have my own interests in secrecy you know."
