I feel like I'm going mad. I keep forgetting things. This morning I woke up and I couldn't remember your voice. [ her voice breaks. ] I kept trying, but it was gone. I couldn't remember it at all. I was really scared. I thought I was going to forget you completely. I don't want to forget. If I forget… [ she trails off. quieter, she continues. ] When will you come, Father? We need you here.

[ A pause as she tries to add some semblance of happiness to her voice. ] I'm doing my prayers every night, Father. I'm working. I earn mine own coin now. And I've got really good with Needle. When you get here, I'll show you. I'll make you proud, I promise.

I wish you were here.

How normal is forgetting?

[ considering how curt and frantic she had been, she figures she owes him an apology. ]

Um, I'm sorry. For my behavior that night. And...thank you.

[ A soft sigh, Arya don't you lie to her. ]

You would not ask such a question without reason.

[persequor]

[ Shrug. Then she remembers Dany cannot see it. ]

I just wanted to know.

[draca]

Arya. [ Her voice softens with obvious concern. ] If something troubles you, you can speak to me of it. We are friends are we not?

[persequor]

Yes. [ if you could see her slumping off the bed. ]

[draca]

[ IF YOU COULD SEE HER SMILE, as tiny as it is. ] Good, I pray you will remember that. I am not far if you have need of me.

[persequor]

I know. I just... [ she trails off. ]

[draca]

If you do not wish to say, I will not force you.

[persequor]

Thank you.

[draca]

You are welcome, though you needn't thank me.
