[ she does as instructed, and to the reprimand, she offers a sheepish smile and a nod, before her expression turns more serious. ]
I did. [ her brow furrows when daenerys mentions that she'll be leaving the city, too; she'd not planned to, but if everyone close to her is going... gods, but she hates being left behind.
instead of voicing that, or her concerns, she listens quietly, nodding when daenerys speaks of heroes, smiling wryly when she speaks of what they've faced and still lived. ]
If by heroes, you mean that they have the tendency to run headlong into almost certain death, I agree. [ then, ] Perhaps one day we will have the time to speak of the things we've faced and conquered. It has not been any easier for you, I believe.

It's enough for her to huff a quiet laugh. Leave it for another woman to understand. ] I'd like to share our stories, and to learn more about you.
[ This, at least, gives her hope that meeting Sansa at Winterfell for the very same war will go well. That their people will flourish around one another versus more of the same distrust that Cersei's words created.
That sigh, though, makes her think this particular reminder of home may not be the most welcome. For what reason, she cannot guess. ]
It's why I think you and I should set out to obtain it, after the dead are dealt with here. [ No dragons or armies means this battle will be difficult, but she's not convinced this will be her end. ] Odin mentioned the lands around us, and how our world's magic is a descendant of this one's. It's been some time since either of us have been told by others what we can or cannot do. I don't intend to allow it to continue.
