[ She stumbles into snow. The cold slices into her. Soaked, filthy, with travel-stained clothes turned almost to rags on her skinny frame and matted, tangled hair only just growing out again, she looks little like a girl, much less like the missing younger Stark daughter.

She sniffles and wipes her nose with the back of her hand. Her face is uncomfortably hot yet she's freezing. Her shivering near knocks her off her feet as she clambers up the steps. ]

My mother…

[ Arya feels her eyes fill with tears. She was going to find her mother and her brother. She was almost home. It wasn't fair. ]

[wolfchild]

Do you have one with you?

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

I sure do. [He'll pull one of of his sling, look delicious googie, Arya. They fix everything]

[wolfchild]

[ She holds out her hands to take it from him. Arya turns it over. ]

I wish you had been there with me. Mayhaps I could have found my family.

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[He'll watch her for a moment]

I wouldn't have rested 'til I got you back to them safe.

[wolfchild]

[ Faint smile. She doesn't raise her eyes from the egg. ]

You can go if you want. I'm just going to sleep.

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

Only if you want me to go, little brumby.

[wolfchild]

...Can you stay? Until I go to sleep?

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

I promise, I'll stay.

[wolfchild]

[ Bringing the egg with her, she crawls on the bed. The covers she keeps wrapped around herself like a cocoon. She leaves the egg on the pillow next to her. Her prayer comes to mind. She names the Hound first. Valar morghulis. Yawning, she curls up into a ball to sleep. ]

[He'll remain a little longer than he said he would. After all, it's only until recently he's had the chance just to...stay with the children. Paradisa's given him the time to do that much, at least]

[ Bunny, you are not allowed to pull an Edward Cullen.

Arya will set Nymeria on you if you pull an Edward Cullen.

And the sprinklers.

So. Don't. ]

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[It's okay, he'd find Edward Cullen a giant creep and PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE

Also no sprinklers are cold :(]
