Fifth House of Westeros ♛ Written/ Open Action ♛ Filter to Starks/ Snow

[Alayne is still learning about this place, and with the journals bursting with information about the mirrored place, she does what she knows and tries to figure this out. Talking to people can only do so much. Perhaps there's a history of this.]

[Lady Stark, King Robb of the North, Jon Snow of the Night's Watch, and Arya, may she read this.]

I know Arya is trapped in the land beyond. Are the rest of you safe or on this side, the side of the castle?

Has there been any clues to the return of them?

[Jon Snow of the Night's Watch]

[There aren't any words. Surely he's been made aware of her presence by now, either by Cat or Robb himself. She tries to pen something, but the pages just absorb ink.]

~~Hello.~~ [It was seen briefly, but eventually scratched out. And she gives up.]

I had not yet made any plans. It would be good to see you again. I take you that you have healed?

I am well enough. Perhaps tomorrow then? We can get an early beginning.

I can meet you outside the castle after dawn.

ooc: log or action it?

I will see you then.

ooc: action is fine! unless you'd rather log it.

[She's up long before dawn, hair brushed, breakfast had, and wearing a simple dress, before she's out in front of the castle. It was still an adjustment, having so much family here. It both unsettled her and made her happy, to know they were all safe.

After all, if that's what she could wish for back home, she'd want it. Actually having it was different though. So much had changed for her.]

[When Robb joins her outside the castle, shortly after dawn, he's dressed simply in trousers and a loose hanging shirt. A far cry from the usual elaborate outfits befitting a king. It was both an effort to blend in and the best he can do without tiring himself out and pulling at his stitches.

He's smiling as he walks up to her and gives her his arm.]

Good morning. Are you ready to go?

[She smiles at the extended arm and takes it.]

I am. How did you sleep?

[He starts walking down the path, leading them to the town.]

Fairly well. How about you?

Well enough. [She was still getting used to this place. Sansa kept her head toward the town. She swallows before looking back at him, glad to have him at her side.]

[He 'hmmed' in response and watched the path ahead of them. He used the moment of silence to just enjoy being with his sister again.]

Moments like this I almost forget we were ever separated.

[She lifts her chin to give him a smile.] I always remember it. It makes this moment better.

[He grins a bit bitterly.] Yes, it does. I suppose it's just this place. It makes me think that maybe we'll wake up to find it's all been a terribly long, horrible dream.

Then I do not want to wake up. [For as much as she actually did miss Littlefinger, things were simpler here. She did have what she wanted as confusing as it made things.]

Life isn't songs and stories, Robb. This place is not easy, but if I should return home then everything that is possible here is gone. I do not want that.

[He looks at her, his eyes a bit sad. As irritating as he found his sister's fascination with stories, it hurt him now to see how disillusioned she now was. She was right; she wasn't the same person anymore.]

You're right, of course. As strange as this place is, it's a blessing for us. It's our 'second chance'.

It's almost like Winterfell. I'd like to think I'd see it again, but it would not be the same.

[She looks down at the path that they're walking.] It is not the same period. As much as I used to complain about the North, the South is not what I had hoped.

[More like Joffrey was not what she had hoped for.]

[A small lump forms in his throat when he thinks of Winterfell.]

The last word I heard of Winterfell was that nothing was left. Only the remains. [His eyes cloud over.]

We've all had to deal with disappointment. Being a King...was not what I expected either.

[She dips her head.] I never thought Theon capable of it.

I heard you were a good king. You and Grey Wind, mighty in battle. I always listened for your stories.

[His hand clenches at his side at the mention of Theon.] Neither did I.

Did you? It all seems like it was so long ago.

I am sorry for it. [Not that she didn't feel the loss of Bran and Rickon just as heavily as he did, but she knew how close Theon and Robb once were.]

Our time here is getting long.

And it will get longer still, if what I've heard is true.

There are people that have been here years.

I have heard that to. If the castle has it's way we may never leave here.

[He's not as concerned about that as he was when he first arrived. It's not like he has anywhere to return to after all.]

I think I could live with that, knowing you, Arya, and our Lady Mother is safe.
