[ for once, arya is well-groomed if drained by heat and stress. she donned her best new tunic and her hair has actually seen a brush. it has been pulled back into a delicate and seemingly simple braided updo by skilled elven fingers. her now long hair drives her mad otherwise in the suffocating heat that is engineering. grey eyes look steadily into the camera. just off-screen she clutches nymeria's scruff like a lifeline. it's the only outward sign of her nervousness. this speech was written out, repeated enough for her to memorize it, and she is still afraid she will somehow screw it up.

like robb, she thinks. she will be as eloquent as robb. taking a breath, she begins.

My name is Arya Stark. I am speaking for Tony Stark, head of engineering, who is in stasis.

We all know the temperatures are high. There is nothing to be found in the Engineering or Agriculture department as the cause. Two days ago the temperatures stopped going up. We have not stopped working on finding the cause, and we will keep trying to bring it down.

Until then, you ought take-take precautions against the heat: drink a lot of water, try to avoid exerting yourself. The pools are always open. You can swim. If you don't know how to swim, you can learn. And don't get lost.

As I am the only one officially left of Engineering, I take responsibility for everything here. If there is anything you wish to say, you can say it to me. My—team is doing the best they can and they are not to be blamed. Neither is anyone else in any of the other departments. If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer them. We will tell you of any changes.

Thank you.

[ and she smoothly switches off the video. don't mind her as she collapses in a pile in a lukewarm corner somewhere and doesn't get back up for a while. ]

That was pretty good.

[ this is a very different girl from the one who'd scowled at her outside the tubes, but katniss recognizes when someone is dressed up and reading from cards. she's been there enough times herself. ]

Do you really think anyone's going to be able to do anything about the heat?

[ she's just kind of assumed it's a deliberate gamemaker torture outside her, or anyone's, control. ]

That is the Lady Arya Stark, and you will show respect, ser.

If I thought I could help, I would.

[ it's not a lie; she understands that manpower oils the cogs of this machine, just as it did in district twelve. but that's about the extent of her knowledge of engineering. ]

[ scowl scowl scowl. ]

She my friend, m'lord. 'm not treating her like some high born lady. She'd hate it. [ and throw something at his head. a lot of somethings. ]

But a high born lady she is, and sister to the King in the North and the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch.

So you may be friends, but it will not change her position. Respect, ser, before the King in the North or her Lady Mother wake to find you speaking to her in such a way.

[ he visibly bites his tongue at that, wanting to speak things he shouldn't. your king is dead and her mother a walking corpse. his mouth is sealed by a promise of silence, to lie to a king and a mother and play stupid. (she's always thought him stupid anyway)

thus jon gets no answer, only a steady (scowl) stare of a bullheaded boy keeping the promise he made to the sister of a king. ]

[ A large paw would be the first thing on view, along with the huge black head of a wolfhound as this six-foot beast ... flops onto his stomach to stare at the young child evidently in charge of engineering. His snort is a little impatient but there's no way Nuada is shaking off his Glamour just yet; to be covered in sweaty black fur is one thing, but it's infinitely preferable to being weighed down in leather and weapons (and unable to quickly catch the scent of his attacker, should he cross it again).

The look he gives her (a slow blink and flat peer) speaks of quite a bit of exasperation, however, even without accompanying words. ]

[ Not before he growls first, low and irritated, but more of a chuff than anything threatening. Golden eyes flicker over what he can see of the location surrounding Arya, muzzle tilting in consideration. Enough of a clue to find her, perhaps? ]
