Furiosa has definitely noticed his mood. She's also aware that they are down a Jojen and remembers that he was from Tyrion's world. After quietly observing him for a few days, she finds him in engineering. She lets herself in, settles back against the wall, and crosses her arms.

"Okay. Talk."

Tyrion had noticed that as well, and it was another layer of weight on his heart. Jon, Bran, Dany and Jojen. Theon had come back ... something else. Who knew what would become of the rest of them here?

Furiosa's presence snapped him out of staring at the page in his book for another ten minutes, and then he sighed. "Dany is gone."

His answer is a little surprising, and immediately after her features soften and she goes over to sit nearer to him.

"Dany ... the blond girl, right?" Furiosa thinks she's seen her around, that she reminded her faintly of The Dag. "You two were close?"

He nodded his head, and as she sat down next to him, he pushed the bottle over to her.

"I was - am - should be in the future - Her Queen's Hand. Her top advisor, representative, and her ruling stead when she is off in battle. I ... we trusted one another."

She takes the bottle, looks at it, and just holds onto it for a while. She'll take a small drink now and again for appearances, but maybe she's more interested in making sure he doesn't overdo it than she is sharing in it.

"Can I ask ... what is she going back to?"

Himself, he is quietly watering his various plants - things put into order, neatening and making sure that everything is 'just right'. He's ... listless, on edge.

Her question makes his shoulders tense, and he takes another hit off the bottle, "She is going back to make war. To take back Westeros from the Usurpers."

"So, she's alive? She can keep going?"

Furiosa is getting at something. She watches him fidget with his plants, and after a moment slides the bottle back over.

"She is alive. She is going. I am not entirely certain she ever stops."

Is Tyrion's simple response, as he moves onto the next tank.

"Then there's hope."

It's not much, she realizes this; not with the way he's described his world before, but things could be a lot worse.

"... I do not put much stock into hope these days but - I know her. She can stay alive." She had to. For all their sakes.

"Hope is a tricky thing. You can't depend on it too much, but it can be enough to get out up in the morning."

Wake you up, keep you going. "But she's alive, and that means she can still fight. That's something. Hold onto it."
