My lord. I --

[ i heard a different story. most of what she knows about the wife that came before her had been learned at petyr baelish's leisure. most, but not all. he cautioned her to shed no tears for the imp. and yet she could not bring herself to explain her shock today upon the learning of another version.

so in the last breath she diverts her attention to another memory: ]
I did not know you asked for me. During the riots.

[ she can pretend as though she is flattered and he can pretend as though it was for any other reason than something self-serving. sansa doesn't know why, exactly, he sought her safety. but the why doesn't matter. ]

[Sansa. Of all people, he did not want her to know this. It had been bad enough on their wedding night to see the moment she softened and began to pity him. It was the moment, he knew, that she was not like to ever love or even want him. They might not be married now, but it stung no less.

He did not look at her.]


Someone needed to, my lady. There was no one else with the sense to do so.

N-no. [ but the word twists in an awkward protest. she isn't so well adapted to telling others anything but what they want to hear. ] There was one other. One.

[ the hound.

but otherwise, he speaks true. too true. and whatever his personal-selfish-lannister reasoning might have been to care at all for her safety during the riots, she could not fault him the fact that no one else in his family might have so much as frowned had she met with a more bitter fate. ]

I recall. [Would that the Hound had been as solid and staunch during Stannis's invasion as he had been during the riot, then Tyrion might still have a fuller face and not lost so much during his recovery. His stomach turns to even recall that.]

I could not let harm come to you, no more than your brother could do for Jaime. Those were the lines we both drew.

[And yet? Look how it had ended. Her wed and vanished and his brother a maimed cripple.]

[ she watches somewhere beyond his shoulder. ]

I would thank you -- [ but. ]

Yet it seems you won't.

[And why should she? No one else ever has.]

I do not need thanked, Sansa. As my father would say, I am not some trained monkey who requires applause for each of my actions. [Yet he cannot disguise the bitterness in saying those words.]

And so I will spare us both the pretence. [ for once. perhaps such an excising of hollow courtesy shows growth. or maybe it shows exhaustion instead. ]
