How come I have to have a "silver turd" and a "blind dude" as roommates? They both suck!
Who came up with this idea? This is stupid.

Might kick them out. They're too noisy.

Does anyone even like their roommates? Mine are annoying. Let's do a trade.

[ Theon Greyjoy you great moron can't you see she is trying to protect her brother, their king? ]

I made no mention of your knowledge of the ways of the North. Only a fool imagines slights when there are none.

Besides, my words were to my brother, not you. If I cannot decide what is worth Robb's time, surely I can decide what is worth mine. [ read: you are not. ]

[reek]

[ He is too! He just has a different way of going about it.

Her words do sting, though. Jon aside, Sansa was the Stark child who was always seemed the most distant from him. Their paths seldom crossed, they rarely spoke, and Then can think of no memories they’ve shared together. There was a time when Robb considered him to be as close as a brother, but he knows that the others never felt the same. ]

Am I meant to believe this is a new decision? I never was worth your time.

[jelmazmo]

That's quite enough. All of you.

You will decide amongst yourselves which date and location best suit a private discussion among you, which I will mediate. And in the interim, I don't wish to see one more complaint.

( It won't bode well for anyone who challenges her. )

[reek]

I do not take orders from you, nor will I ever.

[jelmazmo]

One way or another, you will bend the knee.

( Since he will not ask. Following this, she hangs up on him abruptly. )

I think she won that spat.

[reek]

[ HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT. No one asked you.

Even if this is your post. ]

She hasn't won anything by fleeing the conversation.

[silverhound]

[This was his post before you troubled sissies took over! Loz is tempted to punch all of you guys to the moon now.]

The Queen, wait, YOUR QUEEN, knows better than to drag this out any further. You guys are fighting over titles and garbage when everything is already long gone.

The Storm destroyed everything. What's there to fight about.

[reek]

[ Look, Robb started it. Punch him to the moon first. ]

She is not my Queen.

Robb and I have unfinished business. The state of our homeland doesn't just clear that away.

[silverhound]

You certain of that? The woman speaks as if she's your queen. I don't think you have much of a choice.

But what does it all matter here and now? The only thing that should concern you is life here on this planet.

[reek]

There's a difference between speaking like a Queen and getting others to bend the knee. My father doesn't speak like a King, but he was able to get others to bend the knee to him none the less.

[ And he failed horribly, but we don't mention that part if we can avoid it. ]

Whether he and I like it or not, we remain a presence in one another's lives, even here on this planet. If he cares to change that, it's his choice.

[unprays]

[ she was — that much she would admit, easily. but then, she was horrible to Jon, wasn't she, as they were children? and look at them now. ]

Jon tells me you saved my life. For that, I am grateful, but I will not listen to any more of this.

If you want to talk more, then talk, instead of hiding behind written words.

[reek]

[ There is an every-growing list of things that have supposedly happened, yet Theon has no memory of. Robb’s death, his father’s death, Meereen, saving Sansa’s life. These memories belong to Jon and Asha, and Theon feels unease at his inability to muster the same memories. He remembers Ramsay ordering Winterfell be burned to the ground, and nothing more afterwards. Anything could have happened to him afterwards, and Ramsay has already shown himself to be a skilled manipulator. Skilled enough, perhaps, to make Theon forget.. ]

I didn’t save your life. You were hundreds of leagues away from Winterfell when I took it.

[ But he had saved Bran’s life, and that only earned him Robb’s scorn. He did what he thought was right, but his decisions always seem to be the wrong ones in other peoples’ eyes. ]

Name a place and a time and we will talk.

[unprays]

You did.

You betrayed Robb, and I will never forgive you for that. But Jon wouldn't lie to me. I trust Jon, and he tells me you saved my life, or will save my life, so you did. You will save my life, Theon Greyjoy, and I don't like it any more than you do, but I owe you my life.

[ a far different way it is, the way she speaks of Jon now than what Theon would remember — perhaps different enough to show that she is hardly the same girl he knew back then, before she left Winterfell with her father. ]

I will be in the kitchen, to bake cake for our neighbours, to apologize for the noise from you two. If you want to talk to me, you know where to find me.
