[ Firstly, enjoy a video of what it's like above the clouds. Ceffyl Dwr can occasionally be seen cresting the wispy tundra in herds, neighing their way in and out of focus as they shift into mist. Your host for this flight, on the other hand, can't be seen save for a bit of knee and elbow here and there, and perhaps a flash of hair whenever he curls forward before a dive.

Altogether, it's a very pretty sight. When he finally lifts the locket, Jack looks a little distracted by his far-off company but those bright blue eyes swing back eventually. ]

My name's Jack Frost. I was one of the Seelie when I first got here, but I ... I went home, I think. It's kind of a blur. [ A shrug. ] And now I'm Unseelie. I was at the last major feast in Caer Glaem not long ago, I flew all night to get there and find my friends. Their names are Alayne, Hiccup and Elsa. If you know them, give me a head's up. Oh! If the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, Sandman or Santa Claus is around, point them in my direction too.

I realize how absolutely stupid that list sounds, trust me.

[ Doing a double-take before be signs off, he snorts out a smirk. ]

And yes, I'm that Jack Frost.

[ Silent though the feed goes, save for the rush of wind, it's left online right through until sunset. ]

( OOC: video over here if you'd like to get a general visual of what it looks like to fly with jack! turn your volume down first because lol youtube no. )

Tell me where you are, I'll come and see you right now. [ He shrugs off the allegiances. ] I don't care what they say I'm supposed to be, I know who I am.

Right now? [ she echoes; she chirps. she is days away from her father's company -- and for all she likes him (for all she misses his displays!) she cannot quite... ]

I would have to speak to Ser Gendry, of course. He is my escort. [ between the lines: one moment while i ask for permission. ]

Ser Gendry? [ Smile whipping into a grin, Jack raises his brows. ] Okay, I'll wait. Go ahead.

[ Note to self; freeze Gendry's underwear. ]

Oh! [ Mischief creeps into the corners of his smile. ] And tell him it's Lord Winter asking.

[ oh, how sweet it would one day be -- she thinks -- to shed all her dishonesty and explain to lord winter her family words. ]

...He will laugh at me if I do that. [ hesitant. ]

Then I'll make him sorry he laughed at you when I get there.

No, no. There's no need to make him--

[ she clicks her tongue and speaks more genuinely of ser gendry now than she ever did. ] He is a good knight. Perhaps even a true one.

Oh. Are you two ... ? That's cute. Should I threaten to freeze him solid if he messes you around?

Are we...?

[ she doesn't understand, jack. :c ] We're travelling together, if that is what you're asking.

So you're not sweet on the big tough knight? [ Asking for reasons, okay. ] He sounds pretty amazing.

[ --oh. oh! her cheeks burn. how could he... ]

N-no! Or...yes. He's very competent. He's kept me very safe. I'm grateful to him. I am. [ oh she may not be sweet at all on ser gendry but her particular mode of politeness doesn't exactly confer so. she looks more bashful than flustered. ]

[ He will allow Gendry to live, for now. ]

Okay, well. I'm glad one of us isn't getting attacked, that's something. Can you believe people are wandering around with giant wolves, here?

[ her breath catches. ]

Has some direwolf attacked someone? [ she leaps to an assumption; she clumsily uses the creature's proper name. all this time as sansa while in gendry's company! and all these conversations with her father. her brother. her sister. they've knocked at her walls and eroded one girl, melting into another. ]

A massive white one almost snapped me up when I got to the feast. Also! Some guy called Snow thought I was evil. That was a ton of fun, as you can imagine.

[ Snow and Frost, mmph. ]

You? Evil? However could he think it? [ she breathes her concern -- phrasing it as though she could not imagine a single soul could find trouble with the mischievous spirit. but beneath her gentle friendship comes a lurking horror: did jon learn something she never learned? should she also be wary? ]

Being partially deceased sort of freaked him out, he thought I was a White Walker. Whatever that is.

Others. We also call the White Walkers Others. [ ... ] And I took them to be nothing more than tales.

[ she can say this much without betraying any more. ] It sounds as if he and I are from the same lands.

I'm supposed to be a story too, no one believed I was real for hundreds of years.

[ Shrugging, he helps with a description. ]

Tall guy, straggly hair, wasn't as bad as he could've been, I suppose, even with a sword in his hand. His wolf had the weirdest eyes.

I do not know him. [ although it pains her to say it. pains her grievously. ] Except I spoke to him just the once. A Stone and a Snow ought to introduce themselves, I suppose.

I'd introduce you if I didn't think he'd mistake you for the Boogeyman.

[ he likely thinks even worse of me, she keeps to herself. but in sight she only smiles: ] I doubt it. Snows and Stones are guilty of the same crime, dear Jack. Whatever he thinks of me he must think of himself.

So if I kicked his butt, I'd have to kick yours too? I don't know if I'm okay with that.

[ Straightening his lips. ]

I suppose it depends on why you are -- [ no. she is not going to let the words kick his butt pass her lips. ] Punishing him.

[ ~~Speak the butt, touch the butt.~~ ]

He was pretty rude about the fact some of us don't have pulses. Does that count?

For many of us, I imagine meeting someone without a pulse is a truly remarkable thing. [ ... ] Perhaps he can be forgiven his surprise.

[ so gently and mildly she tries to defend a man she should have no cause to defend. ]

Perhaps, one day.

[ Sniffing and sticking his nose in the air ... and somersaulting backwards as he 'faints' with the sheer degree of his generosity, whoops. Drawing up again as he rights the locket, Jack glances behind him for birds (nope, the way's clear) and lets the wind pull him along. ]

Who else have you known who's a little ... odd?

[ Genuinely curious. ]
