This seems to be a trend for you.

Everything leaves in the end. What does that say about you, Odinson?

If the entity is not human, and passengers on board are not human, what then stops residents from provoking it, exactly?

You have been here since the ship began bringing foreign bodies in, correct?

The child lies, Asgardians are dangerous.

[They'll find their worlds similar in many ways, then; save maybe that Asgard tends to do better with peace. And keeping it.]

What else has a man learned?

[She is mimicking the kindly man now, her last teacher from home: she had three new things to report to him, each month, sometimes each week. Always three, always new. It's a pattern that's easy to fall into.]

[snaketrap]

[ Loki would beg to differ that peace was a mask made for superiority. He sees this now when before he believed. When before he had faith. When before he belonged, although he never did belong, but he had thought and trusted who he was. A prince, a capable mage. What he was.

And so long had it slowly come undone. So long had it come to this, and so this it would be, and his truth - his one, horrible, terrifying truth - was sealed tight beneath layer upon layer of lies; but more than lies laid here beneath the surface. Anger. So. Much. Anger. And so much pride, a veil for his shame and disgust.

He's come to accept this. This horrible creation that is him. Let it be so, then. Let it be so. ]

That a girl knows games. A girl is watching. [ A slow tip of his head.] She watches for someone.

What has a girl seen?

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

A girl has seen mazes. A girl has seen lips turn blue, and fingernails and eyes. A girl has seen accidents that were not accidents, and death.

A girl watches for herself.

[snaketrap]

Then a man hopes she is safe and not alone.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

A man has no reason to.

[No one cares without reason. Maybe in passing, for children, she's seen that here - but no one invests when they have no reason to.

Words are wind.

[snaketrap]

A man is a King. To have concern is his nature.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Not all kings.

What is his kingdom called?

[snaketrap]

Well met.

His Kingdom is Rigsdrost.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

What world does [She has to pause and listen again, because the language is alien to her, and it's hard to transcribe, but she gets there.] Rigsdrost lay?

[snaketrap]

Tis nameless. [ The lie is flawless, as had the others been. He were not even quite sure what he would say. Loki has spoken himself from Asgard in front of the mortals but denies it in front of the Asgardians, especially Thor. There was reason for that. ]

Tis made of Kingdoms all around. I'd not known any but one until now.

Does she know of other worlds?

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

[Arya knows what it is to deny who you are, what you are: she did so to her brother's face, and he hurt for it. But she knows that denying a name can mean survival. She can't tell that he's lying, not now; it's too good, and she knows too little a bout him.]

A girl comes from Braavos. [A lie, but one she says with ease.] In Essos. Across the Narrow Sea is Westeros, and the Seven Kingdoms.

A girl has learned of many worlds.

[snaketrap]

Does a girl know war?

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Very well.

[snaketrap]

[ Look at this concern. Whether it's true or not? Hard to say, but it looks true. ]

He knows it, as well.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

[Damn that is some fine looking concern. She doesn't really buy it, though. Kindness from strangers is not a philosophy she prescribes to.]

Who does Rigsdrost war with?

[snaketrap]

[ Take a moment to think, a young king, perhaps quite likely to have children. He does not, but that does not stop him from claiming he does if it befits him. ] Illsdrost of the far North. They are cold, and cruel people. Savage is too kind a word.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

[She almost writes, 'winter is coming,' but those are Stark words, some other girl's words, not hers. Not anymore.]

A girl has heard tales of the north of Westeros. It is said they are cold and hard, too. [And maybe savage, too, for not all sworn wolves are truly sworn, and not all wolves can be trusted.]

[snaketrap]

A girl understands, indeed. [ He looks off for a moment. ] Does she fret for her home?

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

A girl has no home.

[snaketrap]

A girl has made her own home, yes? Wherever she roam.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

A girl livesd in a House, but it is her school, not her home.
