She-Wolf's in a foul mood.

[thelonewolf]

Stop being stupid!

You're boring.  I want to explore and chase cats, and practice my needlework and dream of wolves and ride horses.  I'm tired of doing what you want to do.  I'm not some stupid little lady who will sing as you please and sit around and go where you want and do what you say.  I'm a wolf and don't have to listen to you. 

You just leave me alone!  Or I'll kill you and go someplace else.  I will!

A girl's voice comes too loud for the work she'd see done.

[thelonewolf]

If I saved someone else from dying, would I get three more deaths?

[debtsdue]

The God isn't a merchant.

[thelonewolf]

It wasn't any God. It was you.

[debtsdue]

It was the God, and the God chose a face.

[thelonewolf]

But . . .

[hmph.]

Fine. I can do it myself. I'm not the same scared little mouse you knew.

[debtsdue]

Wise. A cat will scavenge Braavos each morning, and a mouse would lose its tail.

[thelonewolf]

[A little smile]

Valar morghulis.

[debtsdue]

[ Ah. ]




Valar dohaeris.

[magical_melonhead]

You're the oddest wolf pup I've ever laid eyes on.

[thelonewolf]

I'm not odd! What do you mean?

[magical_melonhead]

Well for one thing, you haven't nearly enough fur... Or the proper teeth, or even a wee tail to wag!

[thelonewolf]

Don't be stupid. I'm not a real wolf. If I was, you'd be dead.

[magical_melonhead]

But you said you were- Hey~ Death threats aren't very nice y'know, and neither is name calling!

[thelonewolf]

Well don't say stupid things, and I won't call you names. Who are you, anyway?

[magical_melonhead]

[He's going to pout ever so slightly.]

My mother calls me Jezeus and my friends call me James, a particular girl calls me Thor because she's cute like that. What about yourself?

[thelonewolf]

I have a lot of names, too. [She isn't sure which one she is, at the moment.]

I'm Arya.

[magical_melonhead]

That's such a pretty name, why would a someone as young as you need more than one?

[thelonewolf]

It's safer.

[magical_melonhead]

[He gasps in shock, a little girl who needs alias's to be safe?! How terrible, what was the world coming too?]

Who would want to hurt someone so young? How terrible! Give me their names and I'll stomp them flat!

[thelonewolf]

[Ser Ilyn, Ser Gregor, Dunsen, Polliver, Ser Meryn, King Joffrey, Raff the Sweetling, Queen Cersei, the Hound. But this is her list. For her, only. She doesn't want to share it.]

I'm going to kill them. All of them!

[magical_melonhead]

There's no fun in killing your enemies y'know, just throw them down an old well and seal it up. Doesn't that sound more fun?

[edric]

Needlework? Now that sounds boring.

[thelonewolf]

Not the way I do it.

[edric]

Oh, I'm sure. [He smirks.]

My mundane does needlework and I don't see why girls like it so much.

[thelonewolf]

I don't sew with my Needle. Not like proper ladies do. I tried to, but I just messed it all up.

[edric]

So you're not a proper lady? I thought all highborn ladies were proper ladies. Why are you so different?

[thelonewolf]

I'm--I'm not highborn! I'm not anything. You just shut your mouth!

[edric]

Don't tell me to shut my mouth! I don't take orders from a..girl. [Well, actually he does but he's trying to sound tough.]

[thelonewolf]

[At least he could tell she's a girl.]

And I don't have to answer any questions to any stupid boy!

[edric]

I'm not a stupid boy! I am the son of a king!

[thelonewolf]

[say what now]

You're a liar! What king?

[edric]

I'm not liar. Robert Baratheon is my father.

[thelonewolf]

You're a king's bastard?

[She makes a face, suspicious.]

Anyway, he's dead. [Pause.]. He was my father's friend, but he's dead too.

[edric]

[He hates being called a bastard.] Yes. I am.

[Edric doesn't want to believe Roberts' dead, but he knows it's true. Ser Cortnay told him so.] Don't say it like that.

[thelonewolf]

Say it like what? It's true!

[edric]

I know but-[A pause.] you don't have to sound so...cold.

[thelonewolf]

[She feels a bit of shame, now.]

Sorry.

My father and King Robert were friends. I'm Arya Stark--but don't tell anyone that, or I'll hit you.

[edric]

[Eep.] Nice to meet you, Lady Arya. My name is Edric Storm.
