[Jesse's set up the communicator so it gives a static view of the scene. They're in Jane's room - the one she hasn't been living in - and it's been cleared to make room for one big art project of some kind. There are cardboard storage boxes everywhere, all cut up into various shapes and painted to resemble adorable child-sized robots. Jane and Lisbeth are in the background there, still working on a few pieces.]

Oh my god, you guys, you would not believe... We've got all this amazing robot armor, but it turns out we made it all too little. So what we were thinking is, if you're small enough to fit into this stuff, let us know right now? And just tell us your tattoo number, yo, and we can drop off some kickass robot armor at your room. How's that sound?

And hey - Grown-ups, don't try to steal any from the kids. It's too awesome for you, so. You know. Chill, okay?

[This is, of course, Jesse's solution to this problem.]

Everybody dies sooner or later. The important part is how.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

[ Welp.

There's a long pause, because she needs to turn that over in her head. On one hand, that's stupid - she won't die for just anyone, she doesn't care about most people. If they're too weak to save themselves, too bad.

But Ned Stark wasn't weak, and he couldn't save himself. And she'd die once she knew the people responsible were dead. ]

A girl agrees. Valar morghulis.

[hostage]

Valar what?

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Valar morghulis. All men must die.

[hostage]

Ah, yeah. Exactly.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

A man has honor. [ Just don't have too much bro B| ]

[hostage]

[Well... being told he has honor makes him huff out a short, humorless laugh.]

Honor. Yeah.

[No.]

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

A man disagrees?

[hostage]

Honor don't exist where I come from.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Not at all?

[hostage]

Not anymore, if it ever did.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Perhaps that is good. Too much honor can kill a man.

[hostage]

Yeah, but too little honor gets everybody killed.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Not when you're smart.

[hostage]

Yeah, maybe. I ain't smart, though.
