[ He knows that he has Sansa to thank for his wife having a home where she wasn't entirely on her own. It tears him apart knowing that their home had been too much for her when he was put back into stasis. But Sansa had taken care of her and extended something that not many would do. It's why he's attempting contact. Or maybe it's because being on his own is playing with his sanity for the moment. ]
My wife tells me that I have you to thank for giving her a home after my departure.
( sorry for the crazy delay in responding, i had to call a hiatus in late february due to health and work reasons, and i'm only just coming back from it! if this is too old to continue, i totally understand, and if you'd rather handwave the rest, let me know if you want to hash out what goes on by pm-ing me or contacting me on plurk @ ~celen! thanks for understanding ♡ )
Ser Jamie! You're back! [ it's a smile that greets him, bright and surprised and pleased. if she allowed herself to be selfish, she would feel a sting at the thought of Claire leaving their house to stay with her husband... but she won't, because she cares about Claire far too much for that. ]
There is no need for you to thank me. Claire is a dear friend, and I've been happy to be able to keep her company.
no prob. i'm cool with continuing. gingers need gingers.
[ It's nice to see that sort of enthusiasm for his return. He didn't make many friends here his first time, but he made a handful. It's good to know they're safe and still happy here. Though there are a few things that make him wonder about Sansa. He doesn't voice them though. It'd not be appropriate. ]
Nonsense. Ye could have left her there, but ye offered her a place. It was generous of ye.
[ They won't be leaving. His wife likes it there too much. Plus she's a bit paranoid Jamie'll go missing again and she'll have to come back anyways. ]
[ her smiles turns a little bit pleased, for a moment, and she doesn't argue, even if she still feels like it was an arrangement that helped both of them. it was nice to have another woman in the house. ]
I hope you're well, [ she says instead, thinking back to when she had fallen back asleep and then woken again, with different memories. it had been disorienting, to say the least. ]
[ Jamie is quiet at that. Because he knows she's talking about stasis and what could have happened there memory wise. He could have woken up and not remembered anything from his previous time. He could have woken up with twenty years of memories to contend with like his wife. ]
Well enough.
[ Part of him wishes they had wiped away Black Jack Randall, but he doesn't think he'd ever get that lucky. ]
Alright, [ she answers, unwilling to elaborate too much — he doesn't need to know about Ramsay and all that happened. Claire can tell him if she thinks it's necessary. ]
Not much better or worse than before... though better now, of course, that you are awake again.
