Who: Sansa Stark and anyone.
Broadcast: Video. Fleetwide.
Action: Find her on the Blue Fish, if you like.
When: Midday.

[ by all accounts, sansa stark has survived. she now lives on an armoured ship. her brothers are nearby -- alongside one brother's devoted friends, who have all been more kind to her kin than she can put to words. although nothing so much as approaches normal, she's beginning to feel settled. stability creeps in from the corners.

and this allows her to ask a question of her fleetmates: ] Is there any means by which I might find spare cloth and thread? And needles, too, of course. The ships give us so much, but I'm not certain -- [ not certain they can give me these. she does not understand their magic, nor the purchasing power of her device. ]

I like to embroider. I should like to do it again, if I could. [ but without a handmaiden to bid fetch these things, she doesn't know how to begin. perhaps it's as simple as looking in the correct spot -- but she was never raised to procure or purchase anything in her life. ]

That's alright. [He feels like he'll overstep his boundaries if he asks, so...] I figured, it would be easier to plant one there than in the Center.

Is there space for plants on your ship?

I have my office, [ she explains. ] All to myself.

Sounds like a perfect place for a potted plant. If you want one there, I mean.

Would it take much care?

I don't think so. You'd have to water it every day, and make sure it gets light...

[Beyond that, he's not sure.] It wouldn't be a lot.

Then I might be capable of caring for it. For one.

I think so. [gently:] Honestly, I also think you can do anything you set your mind to.

[ quiet, but unconvinced: ] How kind of you.

I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it. I'm not exactly in the business of lying.

[Half-truths and omissions, sure, but outright lies? He's learned his lesson.]

Forgive me, but it's so often liars who make such claims.

Fair enough. [He rubs the back of his neck.] It was just - you seemed so unsure about having a plant.

It's only that I've never before had a plant. In Winterfell, there was someone else to care for the glass gardens.

Hm. Well, think of it as... [a learning experience?] Something you can show everyone when you go back home.

I think not. Very little grows where I live, back home.

[ now. ]

Oh. [beat] Sorry to hear that.

[He's stumbling and stumbling and maybe he should quit while he's ahead.]

Um, I should probably bleach the fabric. I'll see you soon, Miss Sansa?
