@wulfmaed sent in : ❛ So, what was the fucking point in all this then? ❜ angry cracking sansa :///// i’m scared pick me up mom / hotd s2 sentence starters.
" the point ? the point is --. " aurane has to stop himself from slamming down his wine goblet, or throwing it against a wall. he knows he isn't angry directly with sansa, but why must everyone ask something of him ? how does no one understand him, and shockingly so, the prince discovers that fact through his wife's own anger.
" the point, sansa, is family ! it is legacy, it is protection. i cannot just stand by while my siblings fight an impossible civil war. you understand this, don't you ? " he starts pacing, doing his best to control his tone, the volume of his voice, but the prince cannot. he stops in front of sansa, reaching out midway for her shoulders and then freezes, and pulls away. he wants to scream. he wants to grab sansa and shake her and force her to understand. aurane wants to grab her by her cheeks, to stare into her eyes until she comes to recognition.
but he doesn't. instead, the prince backs up, takes a few shuddering, deep breaths. he turns away, his shoulders hunched as he grabs for his wine again. " -- just leave me. go. you should not have come anyways. i have not wanted you here. " it is a lie. it is one that burns his tongue, causes bile to rise in his throat. " i will never forgive myself if you --. . . "
