[ arya isn't that little girl anymore, life has changed her, morphed her into something she never was. she's not as bitter or jaded as the arya that gendry knows, as she is back home, she hasn't had a chance to change that much. but still, the world is a darker place to arya stark.

and jon's lucky that she doesn't know that people can disappear at any time, that their time here may be limited. she's so wrapped up in hearing that jon is willing to let her do this, to do this with her, by using the word 'we' that she leaps on the chance. she nods before she realizes he can only hear her.

she agrees, through gritted teeth, but its an agreement nonetheless, one that's said with a bit of eagerness too.] Yes.

[To be fair... Jon doesn't know that either. So he lets out a short breath, relieved. He has no idea what he would do if Arya disappeared in the middle of the night, without even Nymeria to keep her safe.]

Good. I should like to see your skill with Needle now, too, since you've had lessons.

[ she lets out a breath, almost annoyed that she has to give up her plans. although a tiny part of her still thinks he might try. keep an eye on your little sister, jon.] I'm really good. [ there's a pause.]

Are you staying with father?

[baseborne]

[Yeah, guess who is definitely sleeping over every night after this? Try getting out of bed without waking him or Ghost up, little sister. :| No escape no surrender.]

Not as we speak, but I could find him. Why?

[aliased]

[ oh seven hells.] No, I meant staying in his chambers. [ because that'll make it easy for her to sneak out.]

private voice »

[baseborne]

No. [Hmm, suspicious. And also the perfect excuse! You did this to yourself, Arya Stark.] I'm going to stay in yours. [With a feigned innocence:] You did say I could, I recall.

[aliased]

[ outwitted again! there's a silence, a frustrated.] Yes, I did.

[Is Jon smug? He's a little smug. Solemnly:] And I know you would not give your word without intent to keep it.

private voice »

[aliased]

[ worst actually best brother ever.] No. [ he may be smug but she is glum.]

[baseborne]

[He'll find a way to make it up to her!!] I should talk to father about that sword.

[aliased]

That's not fair! [ she assumes that means he'll go after it himself.]

private voice »

[baseborne]

[At first he's taken aback by the protest, but after a few seconds his tone softens.] I only mean to talk, little sister. I won't have Lord Renly be the one to spread such news again. [Yeah he's still butthurt about that.] While you wait, I wait. You have my word.

[ okay, she relaxes at that, just a little.] Fine.
