[omfg nobody better tell her the way he's watchin all of you]

Why?

text »

[aliased]

[ ah seven hells!] I just want to know. [ or you know... so she can go maim joffrey and get his sword!]

text »

[baseborne]

[can text look unconvinced? because this text should.]

You haven't wanted to know for the past two months.

[plus that should be jon's job ok]

[aliased]

[ arya might be looking away as if he could see her face.] So? I want to know now.

text »

[baseborne]

You can't go. [Having one sister lost out there is bad enough.]

text »

[aliased]

I have to!

[baseborne]

You promised me you'd live. If you try to storm a castle, it's like to get you killed, that's the point of a castle. [She hadn't actually promised, but she'd nodded and that was close enough, right?]

[aliased]

I'm not going to die! And I'm not storming. I'm going to sneak.

text »

[baseborne]

You've just said that where everyone can see it, now they're going to know to look for somebody sneaking in.

text »

[aliased]

They don't know where to look. [ neither does she.]

[baseborne]

How do you think father would feel if you left?

text »

[aliased]

[ dammit jon :| ] That's not fair!

text »

[baseborne]

We just got him back, Arya. We can't leave him all alone. Not even for Ice. [Because anywhere she goes, Jon is going to be following right on her heels.]

[aliased]

That's why I'm going alone! He'll have you.

text »

[aliased]

What do you mean Ice? That wasn't Ice.

text »

[baseborne]

[WHOOPS]

I just got you back too. If you go somewhere I would follow.

[Pretending he didn't see that second text? Maybe. (Totally.)]

[aliased]

You have to stay with father. And wait for Sansa to come back.[ she's so bossy. except the valyrian steel thing makes her wonder...] Is that sword a part of Ice?

text »

[baseborne]

Aye, I do. And that's why you do too.

[He just had to open his big... text. But he swore he wouldn't lie to her anymore, by omission or otherwise.]

I think so. House Lannister never had an ancestral blade of its own. [And stealing Eddard Stark's is just the sort of greedy, deplorable thing a Lannister would do, by Jon's reckoning.]

[aliased]

I'm getting that sword.

private text »

[baseborne]

[Godsdamnit.]

It's father's sword. You ask him what he wants done: it's his choice, not yours.

[aliased]

Joffrey killed him! He killed our father and took his sword and melted it down, made it into another stupid sword!

private voice »

[baseborne]

Joffrey is dead, Arya. He was poisoned at his own wedding. [By Sansa, some say.] But father is here, and he'd rather have you than his sword. If you got lost or hurt or dead trying to get it back he'd never forgive himself, and you well know it.

private voice »

[aliased]

[ she is quiet for a moment, there's frustration in her voice, as well as maybe defeat.] But Joffrey is here too. [ and she wants to end him, to make him pay for killing her father, for torturing sansa.]

private voice »

[baseborne]

Aye, but his armies aren't. His gold isn't. What is he, without that? Like as not he'll get what's coming to him from his own court, even without your help. [Jon can hope, anyway. He found a way to drive his own lord uncle to murder him, after all.] Father's the one that needs us.

private voice »

[aliased]

We can't let him get away with it, Jon.
