    Summary

    “Lady Stark,” the Queen says, and for the first time there is something hard in her voice. It might be ice, or it might be fire. The world is bound to end in one. “Please speak freely,” the Queen says, but Sansa knows a demand when she hears it. “Is a marriage of political significance truly something you want, or is it a responsibility you feel has fallen to you, one you cannot ignore or brush aside?”

    Sansa doesn’t understand the question. Sansa does not want for herself. She’s long since learned the price of dreams, the cost of hope. She is battle-hardened, the same as Jon. She knows only survival. She was built for it, being born of the North.

    “What’s the difference?”

    A breath. Sansa does not look at her, and the Queen does not look away. “There is a world of difference.”

    Summary

    “So,” Mary sets her mug back on the table. “You’ve been avoiding the elephant in the room.”

    “What? That the coffee here sucks?”

    “That you’re going to see Beatrice for the first time in five years,” she says pointedly. Doesn’t attempt to beat around the bush.

    “Oh,” Ava responds, as if she hadn't known that’s what she meant. “That.”

    “Yeah. That.”

    OR

    It's 1994, Ava and Beatrice are broken up, and Lilith and Camila are getting married.

    Summary

    Ava drifts, flitting from one formless place to another, catching glimpses of vaguely familiar faces, hearing things she has heard before—please don’t leave me, I don’t want you to die.

    Beatrice so rarely asks her for anything, and Ava hates that she couldn’t even give her this one thing. The least she can do is go back.

    Preferably alive.

    Summary

    So, Beatrice cleared her throat and asked, “Who are you?”

    The girl spun around, her hair whipping around her body as she did, performance forgotten. For a moment she just stared at Beatrice with wide brown eyes, mouth half open.

    Then she said, “Oh fuck.”

    And she completely disappeared, letting the wooden spoon clatter to the floor.
