@wulvn said “ i’m sorry i let you down. ”
they were children no more. the world had taken their childhood and torn it to shreds, leaving without even a whisper of an apology, and now they were left with pieces that could never be put back together. the loss had aged her brother not only in mind but appearance. for the most part robb looked the same, he was taller, yes, but that was to be expected after a few years apart, but HIS EYES... they belongs to a man far older than her brother; sansa wondered if the same f a t i g u e could be found in her tully eyes. she could hear it as well in his voice as he spoke words that cut at her heart. they should not carry such burdens, such guilt, but they did. sansa felt hers crushing her soul. never could she be free of it. she could, however, LESSEN her brother’s.
❝ you didn’t. ❞ reaching across the table that separated them, she grasped his hand. no longer were they fighting against imaginary beasts in winterfell’s courtyard; she the captured princess and he the gallant knight. here the monsters were REAL, their teeth sharp, and their hearts empty. oh, but how reality mirrored the songs. for she had been trapped, lion’s claws digging into her flesh, and robb had been fighting to destroy the walls of her gilded cage. ❝ i... i prayed everyday that you would rescue me. i never once gave up faith that you would find a way, just as you always defeated the monsters when we played as children, and you did. YOU SAVED ME, ROBB. ❞

𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐀𝐍 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 . roslin peers at him in the dark , her chestnut hair tangled from tossing and turning for hours before her new husband took his place beside her . even then , he only shares her bed for the space it takes to draw a knife and press the blade to his palm .
she makes a noise in her throat , like a cry of relief as he stains the sheets red . then he stands up and moves to the settee in the far corner of the room . her eyes follow him .
never in her life did roslin imagine herself in possession of an ally . never did she dare dream that he might be the one she married . after a long , wordless pause robb lies down . and then , when she is certain he will not fly at her like a demon --- she is able to do the same .
sleep evades her , however , as his blood dries brown next to her . she hears his even breathing and is content with knowing that he has found some rest at least .

𝐒𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐒 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐇𝐀𝐃 𝐀𝐍𝐘 𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐓𝐎 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐈𝐓 . even her wildest fantasies are tame to a disappointing degree , often involving shirking responsibilities in favour of grand travel . winterfell is further than she has ever been , and she looks upon this newfound power with polite disinterest .
“ 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚖𝚊𝚢 𝚋𝚎 𝚜𝚘 , 𝚋𝚞𝚝 𝚒𝚝 𝚏𝚎𝚎𝚕𝚜 𝚞𝚗𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚗𝚎𝚍 . ” she cannot say she wanted to be his wife . but roslin cannot similarly lie and say she has not come to adore the role . the role of queen --- well --- “ i think you and i are better - suited than we had ever thought . i will tolerate this power and try to do some good with it , though i never did wish for it . as you did not , either . we will simply have to do the best we can in our circumstances . one day , i hope , we can have something closer to what we once dreamed of . ”

𝐒𝐇𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐇𝐈𝐌 , folding her arms around his shoulders and pressing her chest to his back . her husband and king is more than a worthy match for a hoard of creatures marched straight from a septa’s spun yarn . roslin has no fear , only love partly expressed behind her thin ribcage .
“ 𝚝𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚝 𝚒𝚗 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚏𝚊𝚌𝚝 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚒 𝚊𝚖 𝚗𝚘𝚝 , 𝚎𝚒𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛 . ” she exhales , turning her head and kissing the side of his beautiful face . roslin smiles at him faintly , with an april day’s worth of beautiful warmth behind her eyes . “ tomorrow , you shall win an impressive victory and come straight home . does that sound quite agreeable to you , husband ? ”

𝐒𝐇𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐎 𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐋𝐀𝐃𝐄 𝐎𝐍 𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐗 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑 . sharp steel gleams beautifully , suspended and rocking slowly back and forth as the handle evens out with the weight of its edge . her heart soars at the thought of something so deadly and perfect belonging to none other than herself .
even in her wildest dreams she has not earned the gifts that her king gives her . still , she must not be too forthright with how pleased she is , the lopsided smile she has allowed is telling --- to an embarrassing degree .
“ 𝚒𝚝 𝚒𝚜 𝚖𝚘𝚜𝚝 𝚌𝚎𝚛𝚝𝚊𝚒𝚗𝚕𝚢 𝚊 𝚠𝚎𝚊𝚙𝚘𝚗 𝚏𝚒𝚗𝚎𝚕𝚢 - 𝚖𝚊𝚍𝚎 . ” she admits when she has found a modicum of composure . roslin is careful when holding the handle so that it will not fall . “ i shall do my best to be worthy of it , despite a lack of practice with such things . ”

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒𝐖𝐎𝐎𝐃 , 𝐁𝐄𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐘 𝐈𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐈𝐓𝐒 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇 . roslin feels lucky to have made it this far , the idea of ever being married or such a great distance from home felt for her entire childhood like a silly dream . never to be hoped for , not really . but in the quiet by the pond , she does feel hopeful .
“ 𝚖𝚢 𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚒𝚜 𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚟𝚎 , 𝚒 𝚊𝚖 𝚞𝚗𝚜𝚞𝚛𝚙𝚛𝚒𝚜𝚎𝚍 . ” roslin smiles at him , a demure grin that does not convey even a fraction of her fragile happiness . perhaps she still fears he may try to crush it under his boot , as people are wont to . “ i would not have sought you out on my own , i imagined you were very busy with matters of state . but it is kind of you to make time for me . ”
in truth , she was not lonely at all . at least , not in the sense that she could feel it . for roslin was so often lonely that to be anything but was the truly strange emotion . but this absence of loneliness , this unnatural tug in her heart when she sees him makes her duck her head and look at her book . “ you are welcome to sit . ”

In moments such as this , Essi is most content . A hall full of people , all smiles and laughter , with music FLOATING through the air as they dance , tankards full of ale spilling in their clumsy movements . It is a welcome chaos , one she observes happily from her elevated position on the makeshift stage . Her performance has been RECEIVED well, and she steps down to a roar of applause , and some shouts for an encore . She assures the crowd she will return , but the strain of singing on her throat has her parched . Using her lute as a SHIELD , the blonde makes her way through the sea of revellers , passing smiles to the eyes she catches . RELIEF is found at a table of drinks , where she gladly partakes in a goblet of wine .
A presence next to her has the blonde glancing over as she sips , regarding the other with a nod of her head as she PULLS the cup away from her lips . Turning , she leans against the table and gaze scans back over the dancers . ‘ A queer thing , is it not? How easily we can forget what PLAGUES the world for one night of revelry . ’
