Who: Winn Schott and you
Broadcast: Video
Action: Tourist
When: Friday
[ there's something off about winn when the feed turns on. something different from all his other broadcasts. it may take a second to spot it but once you realize what it is it becomes glaringly obvious: there's not a hint of happiness anywhere on his face. his eyes, his lips, his nose, it looks like every last bit of joy has been drained from his features, so even when his lips do stretch lightly upwards, despite his dry eyes it feels more like watching him sob than seeing him smile. ]
Margaery's gone home. [ he has no way of knowing that. she could have been kidnapped to another world, one where she would have no protective big brother to introduce her to superheroes and feminism, to embroider with her and teach her science. but he chooses to hang onto that thought, to believe that she's gone back to the family he knows she so desperately missed despite never letting her pain show. he clears his throat. ] If any of her friends wanna come by for a toast and some stories, I'll be on the Tourist all day.
[ he has been on the tourist since he realized she disappeared, curled up in his bed, shut down. this is the most he's said since, and it feels almost like an outer body experience. he clears his throat again, and nods at the camera before killing the feed. ]

sansa does him the courtesy of shifting her attention wholly upon him. as someone who doesn't know her well, he wouldn't be blamed for mistaking her expression as nearly unfeeling. unaffected. except that there is a tremble in her fingers when she reaches for her cup of tea. ]
Well met. [ she wishes she knew what to call him. ser or lord or something. but instead there's merely a gap in conversation where an honorific should have been. ] Despite our circumstances.

he puts his own cup down when she takes hers. ]
Likewise. I wish we did this sooner. [ he kind of feels like she doesn't, but what does he know. he feels so lost. why didn't he ask margaery more questions about her closest friend? so many regrets already. ] Are you looking for anything in particular? She also keeps some stuff in Kara's office - [ the present tense is instinctive. ] mostly crafts supplies, but I haven't looked through our closet in a while, there could be more. [ our. they've shared the little closet he put together since the day she transferred onto the tourist. he'll never forget that day, she surprised him, just showed up with all her things and started carrying them to the then empty room.
the memory brings the saddest smile to his face. his eyes say everything he's feeling, if one looks close enough. he's never really gotten that good at hiding it. ]

and she explains: ] Lady Margaery is clever. And brave. She plays the game most beautifully, Winn. If anyone can make King's Landing love them completely, then it will be her.
[ it was not me. ] She will persevere.

She's one of the smartest people I ever met.

[ a thin kindness. she can offer this much, she thinks, with sincerity and good will. ]

She thought I'm too humble, she made it her business to rectify that.
