You ought to trick them into telling you the truth.

[alwayscomeback]

[Actually. ]

You know...that's not a half bad idea. I mean, it's have to be a good trick, but it might actually work. The direct approach sure isn't.

[ her chin dips. it's not good, she thinks, to betray her thinking mind to him. but he's their captain. and she's been good to bran. if there's anyone she ought to support, it should be him.

feeling a sense of wayward duty: ] I wonder what it is they want from us. Truly.

[ find out what a man wants, baelish told her, and you'll learn how to move him. ]

[alwayscomeback]

[He'd be honoured for the thought, honestly. He sighs, giving a shrug. ]

That's what we gotta work out. It can't all just be for the ratings. That would be so...pointless.

[steeledskin]

It could be we're being trained for something.

[ she's been thinking about this a great deal. politicians are groomed, are they not? and baelish teaches her how to play the game. and everyone keeps calling this a game or a mummer's show. perhaps they're being taught something that's useful to the atroma. ]

[alwayscomeback]

[Sokka doesn't dismiss it at all, instead giving a solemn nod.]

That'd make sense. What with the augments and everything. They can just put whatever they want into our heads whenever they want to.

Question is, what are they training us for?

[steeledskin]

That? That I don't know. [ her cheeks turn pink. sansa shakes her head, and waves a hand as if to dismiss his conversation. she's not accustomed to being consulted so fairly and equally. ] I'm not clever enough to answer that question.

You ought to ask my older brother. He's -- [ a king. ] He's very good with these things.

[ i think. ]

[alwayscomeback]

[Sokka, of course, just smiles, sorry Sansa, you're absolutely equal here.]

I don't believe that for a second. I bet with enough time you could figure this whole thing out. We're lucky to have you.

Yeah?

[steeledskin]

[ sansa does little more than shake her head.

and say: ] Beg pardon, but -- it's just not true. Robb is a king. And a leader of men. He's...He would be better with these matters.

[alwayscomeback]

[That gets a little scoff out of him. Years ago, he would have believed her. He's grown up since then, learned the error of his ways. He thinks back on old Sexist Sokka and cringes about it.]

So? That doesn't make your ideas any less important. You never have to think you're less than anyone. As far as I'm concerned, on here? Your opinions are just as valuable as everyone else's.
