[wolfchild]

Daenerys Targaryen, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms and Khaleesi of the Dothraki, has gone.

[ She does not sound angry or sad or even disappointed. Only resigned. ]

...Oh.

[What...do I do]

[wolfchild]

[ No answer. ]

[songsandstories]

Robb Stark was King of the North. [Okay, she can't talk much of family loyalties, but in her heart it has never wavered. She let him know that when he was here. Everyone can lay claim to whatever they wanted, but Robb was a Stark and he was king.]

forever

[wolfchild]

Was.

[songsandstories]

The North remembers. Not just Lord Stark, but King Robb as well. [The Boltons and the Freys will be punished.]

[wolfchild]

And who'll hold the North? You?

[songsandstories]

No one holds the North. Least of all a Targaryen. [For true she liked the Khaleesi. She could not deny what she was in Essos. But what is the North now? In the wake of the Red Wedding, who held what? She has had little news of it.]

The Freys and the Boltons betrayed Robb Stark and Lady Catelyn most brutally, and they will be dealt with.

[wolfchild]

Words are wind, Alayne. At least she wasn't a liar. She called herself queen to not forget what had been done and what she needed to do. And I love her enough to not take it from her the moment she can't hear.

[ Journal shut. ]

( dictated forever)

[savors]

She was kind.

[wolfchild]

[ As much as Arya agrees, she's not really in a talking mood. ]

[savors]

[ It's all good, she gets it. ]

[willrememberthat]

Oh... [She hasn't known anyone that's left Paradisa, before. It's disappointing, but she remembers what it's like to have people come and go.]

I wondered why I got things from her. She was really nice. I'll miss her.

[wolfchild]

[ Side eyeing journal so hard… ]

What did you get?

[willrememberthat]

Some books. One is about dragons.

[wolfchild]

[ So nothing she couldn't just wish for or go to the library for. Okay. Arya got the cool gifts so everything remains right with the world. ]

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

I'm sorry to hear that little brumby. Was she a friend of yours?

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

Yes.

Arya

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[Aww, kiddo]

Is there anything I can do?

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

[ Even you can't bring her back. ]

No.

Arya

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

Then I hope it'll at least get easier for you.

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

I'm fine.

Arya

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[He doesn't believe her, but he'll let this be]

'Course you are, you're tough.

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

Don't mock me.

Ayra

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

Who's mocking? It's the truth, you are tough. You're the toughest kid I know.

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

I'm not a kid. I'm almost woman-grown.

Arya

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

Right, 'course. How could I forget.

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

I am!

Arya

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

It'd be a fool to take you on, little brumby.

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

Are you japing me?

[ SHE WILL PUNCH YOU IF YOU ARE, RABBIT ]

Arya

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

Not a jape at all. It's the honest true.

Rabbit

[wolfchild]

Oh.













Thank you?

Ayra

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

You're welcome, little brumby.

[assassino]

Now there's a mouthful of a name and title.

[hellshaped]

[The name isn't familiar to him, but if Arya thinks she deserves a mention ...]

Did you know her pretty well?

[wolfchild]

Well enough.

[hellshaped]

It's hard, but you'll be okay.

[wolfchild]

I'm fine.

[hellshaped]

I can tell.

[He's not really sure if it's this place that he has to blame for such resignation in a teenager, or Arya's own world.]

Do you know what she's going home to?

[wolfchild]

Seven hells.

[hellshaped]

[is that like... regular hell...]

She's going to die?

[wolfchild]

Everyone dies.

[hellshaped]

... I know.

[wolfchild]

[ She falls quiet again. ]
