Who: Sansa Stark and you!
Broadcast: Text, fleetwide.
Action: Blue Fish and Iskaulit
When: Today

Even the Fleet can be a harrowing and disquieting place at times, despite how fond we might become of our ships and our associates. I find I cannot escape the frayed nerves I felt during the raid last month. [ margaery might be gone, but even now sansa is taking cues from her braver friend. she writes in months, now, and not in moons. just as marge had done. ]

In times of trouble, what helps you feel most safe? Secure? I meditate -- but it's been helping little and less. [ ... ] Is it shameful and craven that I should rely upon my family and my fellow crew so much and so often? I fear that without them I would be all at sea.

Will a familiar face accompany me to the Iskaulit, today? I haven't been in ages and I miss the gardens.


( BLUE FISH )
[ today is one of sansa's better days. she's sitting in a common area with a bit of busywork stretched across her lap. ser allen had asked for some alterations to be made of his wardrobe, and she's found solace in this distraction. while she sews, she hums: old hymns from home. sansa hasn't done much singing in the more-than-a-year since her arrival, but it turns out her voice is sweet and accomplished.

she greets the crew when they pass by. heavens help us all, she smiles when they pass. ]


( ISKAULIT )
[ after a comfortable reconnaissance with an able escort, sansa returns to the iskaulit in the evening -- or for whatever passes as evening when you're sailing through the stars. she goes cloaked and with her heart set upon a more solitary visit to the gardens now that she's proven to herself she can step foot upon it again. but her communications device is gripped tightly in hand should she witnesses any lions while she prays -- kneeling in the narrow aisle of a garden that's more pragmatic than anything else. even so, it'll have to do.

and when she's done she steals her way through the quieter corridors on the iskaulit. she's such a rare sight in these halls that it wouldn't be unusual to mistake her for a newer member of the fleet. ]

Is it really so bad to rely on family? If you're alone, you don't have anything.

Isn't it better to have them for a little while than not at all? I guess friends would help with the loneliness when they are gone.

[The humming coaxes Riona into the room, having not immediately recognized the voice. Though she hardly knows if it's because she's truly never heard it before, or if the ten years she spent at home have buried the memory. She's still parsing through them, untangling the memories made in the fleet with the now additional decade's worth she woke up with just two weeks ago.

It's been a lot for her, and it's part of the reason she's been more reclusive than most remember her being.

She peers around the entryway, her brow lifting briefly in surprise to see Sansa at work, humming a tune. When Sansa looks up and smiles, Riona smiles back reflexively. But it's not unsincere - she DOES recall Sansa not being one of much to smile, so she knows to treasure this fleeting moment.]


I apologize if I disrupted you. [Her next reflex is to make small talk, something she once loved that she now hates, thanks to all the years in court. But Sansa is crew, and she deserves better than an awkward apology. So Riona pushes forward with the conversation.] You sing very well.
bryces_pup: (120)

[personal profile] bryces_pup 2017-03-28 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Riona bows her head and mimics Sansa's own gesture. It's good to see and talk to her again, now that she's a bit more settled again.]

Thank you. I am glad to be back amongst all of you again. [That is true enough, and that's the reason she chooses that wording. Being back has been... complicated, with everything the past decade has wrought. But she is truly glad to see her friends again, even if she's not quite the same anymore.] It's been a strange sort of homecoming.

No. Your family would want you to rely on them-- you're important to them. If they're here, all the more reason to.

[But more importantly:] There are gardens?

[Sokka loves the days when he sees Sansa smile. They are rare and wonderful, and they make him feel warm and good inside. That she can feel safe and content enough to smile. He gives her a little wave.]

Hey you. Still want to go to the gardens?

[Today, the disappointment train will not be stopping at Sansa station. ]

Great! Well, I'm pretty much free today, if you want my company. I mean, sure I don't know much about flowers and stuff, but I like to think I'm a pretty good escort otherwise.

I don't think it's shameful, though personally sometimes I do have to remind myself of that.

I offer up prayers, I guess, sort of like that. It's more like talking to friends who aren't here.

[personal profile] monolike 2017-03-29 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
The gardens ARE really nice.

I don't really pray to any specific gods. I guess more like I offer my feelings up to the elements? There's a race of people from my world who are the natural elements manifest, so if you offer prayers then sonetimes they can extend blessings over towns and stuff.

I YELL AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS TO THE STARS THAT I'M FINE!!!!

and sometimes after a while i start to believe that things really will be fine!!

but no there's nothing wrong with talking to friends and family

if the yelling doesn't work then that's who i turn to

[personal profile] geonomy 2017-03-29 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
that's why i try to find a spot away from other people! that way i won't wake them up or bother them or whatever

as for how it helps, i don't really know! maybe it's psychological, maybe it's the yelling, but i always start to cheer up a little every time i do it. my bff and i have been doing it since we were kids, and it's helped almost every time!

of course it's not for everyone but it's definitely helped me :D

When I need some time, I take a pod and fly by my own. (This was at home too.) But there is nothing shameful about relying on others. Lean on your family and friends, they complement your strengths and make up for your weaknesses. You can achieve a lot by yourself, but you can achieve more with others.

I'm not a familiar face, but if you need a escort to the Iskaulit, I was planning to visit too.

[personal profile] padadin 2017-03-29 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
That's alright, I understand. Being prudent is a good thing. Planning to meditate in the gardens?
