[ Oh good. JUST WHAT THEY'VE BEEN NEEDING.

Her amusement disappears to make way for surprise, because ... ]

... Oh! You're Bran's brother, aren't you?

[nedstarksbastard]

[And the mention of Bran's name goes a long way towards getting Jon's walls to drop--he relaxes, enough that it's visible, enough that the line of his shoulders loses some of its tension.]

Yes, I am. [Present tense--not something he thought he'd use in reference to Bran again, and the thought makes him feel giddy, somehow.] He hadn't mentioned you, though. [Then again it's not like Jon asked for details.]

[ino]

[ She laughs a little, not really offended by it. He'd thought they were all dead, so being able to see them again and asking what they've been up to sounds a lot more important than mentioning her. ]

I'm sure he's just overwhelmed and excited by the whole family showing up. You're the third in the last month or so.

He was here by himself for awhile, though, and he's still so young -- I wanted to make sure he was taken care of.

[ Says the girl who looks like she's probably seventeen tops, but looks can be deceiving. ]

[nedstarksbastard]

It's just as overwhelming on the other end as it must be for him. I've not seen any of them in a while.

[And coupled with the part where he's in space--yeah, it's been a wild week. He smiles, and while it's weary--more weary than it should be, for someone so young--it's also genuine, and almost warm. If Bran trusts Ino, then perhaps Jon can give her the benefit of the doubt.]

I'm--I'm glad. The last time I saw Bran, it was--[while he was unconscious, and he didn't look like he was waking up any time soon, and they never met up again. But Jon can't say that, so he cuts himself off and goes instead for:] You have my thanks.

[ino]

[ She just nods knowingly when he trails off. Don't worry, bro, she knows where you were going with that and isn't expecting you to elaborate. ]

It's nothing. But, uh -- since it looks like you'll be living here from now on, maybe you want the tour? [ She knows it's probably a lot to take in, but it's better than just leaving him to fend for himself. ]

[nedstarksbastard]

I should like a tour. I'd rather not get lost trying to find my chambers, my pride's had enough bruises for the day. [And for the week.]

[ino]

Great! Follow me, then.

[ She'll turn to start walking down the hall, glancing back to see if he's following. ]

It's no castle or anything, but we do what we can to make it more homey and comfortable.

[ It's kind of difficult when everything is so metal and un-organic. But if he looks around, he'll see that there are a lot of vases with flowers sitting on tables here and there.

First stop is the kitchen, and she'll stop in the doorway to gesture inside, moving so he can see in. ]

Here's the kitchen. You probably remember the protein dispensers from the Marsiva. I try to make sure we have actual not-disgusting real food around as much as we can, though, so that's usually in that big box over there. It's called a refrigerator.
