With the ladies, she would ask what leaves them so disgruntled about the housekeepers; are these the very same ones who they find acting strange? If they would prefer to point these individuals out, and if it should please them, Dany would take great pleasure in providing instruction on the best way to tidy up, seeing as the queen has made no complaint of such thus far of her work. No comment about the children, but there would be a bit of a wistful look to her. Surely the locksmith would have no ability to sneak, as they truly do have the best security.
(Dany would be telling the boys about the locksmith ASAP, as well as encouraging Jon to press Marie's children and see what he can find out about the king's secret, seeing as he's keeping them entertained and she's just run into a brick wall.)
As for the burnt letters, would there be any hint to them that might suggest the source in any way? An unburnt corner that has some script on it? Any words still legible? Would Marie be giving her letters of any sort to deliver for her, or would she find envelopes somewhere while cleaning?
The object she finds is obviously magic and cursed, right, because BLOOD. But in all seriousness, the paperweight that changes colors would be carefully tucked back where she found it after she tried to 1) tap on it and see what it did; 2) reach out to the Commander to report her findings on it. No plans on stealing it yet, as they haven't learned much/enough to complete their mission... but if the Commander wants it, she'll be sure to try and yoink it at some point.
She'll act a bit coy/shy when Marie presses about the secret at first, but she'll eventually spin a tale about how he traveled through her village, rugged and handsome, but frustratingly proud and arrogant as well. He was a strange man who insisted there were bandits in the forests surrounding their villages, and he'd arrived to request her family's aid, both in defeating them, and in tending to his injuries. Did the queen ever notice the scar along his brow? She'd tended to that personally. (and after noticing the blood on her finger from the paperweight--assuming it's not hers--she would make a comment about being skilled at bandaging injuries, should her grace ever find need of someone to be discreet.)
Dany would back down and not press any further, but instead ask Marie about weddings. Was hers everything she'd ever hoped for? Would she have any suggestions if their courtship were to reach that point? She's not sure of how to go about this, you see, for her parents were killed by those very same bandits. She thinks they would approve of Jon Snow-garyen him.
The servant who approaches her is definitely going to be questioned about what sort of games for the rich, for surely there are many... hidden boxes and secret keys sound like no game she's heard of before. It's her first time in court, and she's heard so many stories about royalty that she's so curious to learn more.
