The North Remembers.

[ the message is short but that's for a reason. she doesn't know if this place is safe and after exploring it, she wants to know if there's anyone out there.]

Comments

[aliased]

my intentions? i don't have any.

[passingthrough]

Then why do you want to know?

[aliased]

because i know him. because we can protect each other. and if you won't help me, i'll find him myself.

Private

[passingthrough]

[She makes an adjustment to the security of their connection.] I've secured our line. It's not impenetrable, but it's relatively safe. [Someone would a communications augment would have to take interest enough to hack it.] Show yourself and say that again and I might tell you. Otherwise, you can find him yourself.

[ she considers her options. can this person be trusted? she looks strange and she speaks nonsense. ]

i don't know you. [ why should she trust her? ]

how do you know robb stark?

Private

[passingthrough]

I'm Kitty Pryde. One of the X-Men which you've never heard of. From Chicago, a place you've never heard of.

I met him on the moon. He asked me a question and we started talking. Then we danced together at a masquerade ball. [Not the world's deepest connection, but they were nice talks. Of course she had to put him in check when he teased Tyrion's size. She wasn't having that.]

Private

[aliased]

you danced with him? [ gross. dancing.]

Private

[passingthrough]

If you are a girlfriend of his from back home it was just a dance. I'm with someone else.

[aliased]

girlfriend? what's that mean? i'm not jealous if that's what you mean.

[passingthrough]

Oh, what does Tyrion call it? Courting I guess? Not really a replacement term.

[aliased]

[ suddenly alarms go off in her head and she realizes it's good that she didn't say who she is or show her face. this woman knows a lannister.]

tyrion? tyrion lannister? the imp?

[passingthrough]

That's the one. [And he offered that last title himself to her once, so she won't comment on it.]

[aliased]

he's your friend?

[passingthrough]

He is. [No hesitation there. Tyrion has managed to land firmly in the friend column.] He's a good man.

[aliased]

you're wrong about that.

[ AND IT'S TIME SHE HANGS UP BECAUSE... LANNISTER-FRIEND.]

[passingthrough]

I guess the north doesn't remember it's manners. [Not that anyone hears her with the feed already cut. Interesting exchange though.]
