"Jesus fucking christ"? Is that a swear? Like "Seven Hells"?
JB is a very good protector. I'm sure he'll keep you safe. [ she wonders if she should tell him about Westeros, about how her uncle by marriage killed her aunt because she tried to kill her, because she thought her uncle was in love with her... which he was, but that's rather beside the point. then she decides against it (for now). ]
It seems to be a rough day for everyone's dignity, if that makes you feel better. My brother just sent me a message that was meant for another girl, so you'll be happy knowing it could always be worse.
[ what kind of person says one hell is boring, sansa. westeros really must be a terrible place. ]
oh sorry his full name's jesus christ he's lord but also son of the lord?? i'm not very religious so i don't really get it one heaven one hell maybe it's less scary that way
[ it's hard for him to say. he hasn't believed in that sort of thing since his mum married dean.
anyway, thank god (/rimshot) for the more frivolous follow-up. ]
!!! lady sansa a boy you've never met! scandalous 😳 don't leave me hanging now did he help you decide?
Back home, there were the Old Gods, we still prayed to them in Winterfell, but the faith of the Seven was the most common religion, the one they had in the capital city. In the faith, you have seven Gods, seven Heavens and seven Hells. Then there are the red priestesses who worship the Lord of Light...
[ wait never mind this is far more confusing. ]
I didn't mean to! I meant to send it to Claire, but it went to a boy named Percy instead. He seemed nice, though. He said I should wear it if I want to.
Perseus? That sounds like a noble name. Is "Percy" shortened from that?
Sort of. I am staying in Wyver for a brief time, and the clothes that I am accustomed to wearing, the ones you saw me in when we met, they aren't exactly appropriate for the weather.
So you weren't supposed to tell me. Alright, I'll keep it as our secret.
[ at least for now. ]
I think so. I'm going there to stay with Jon and Daenerys, and visit Ser Loras. Father is back in stasis, so Jon asked me to stay with him for a while.
[ people you love, though, that's — it's hard label to apply to what he had with harry, which hewed close to the boundary of personal and professional, fraught with expectations that eggsy become like his father or harry become like a father in his own life. ]
thanks, sansa guess it's nice to know i'm meeting more good people every day
[ like you is the implication. hard to say if that makes it easier or harder, having more people to care about, but he isolated himself for a month and it only made him feel worse, so he's resolved to take a different approach now. ]

yeah it's a swear
takes the lord's name in vain so it's probs extra offensive to religious types
we've also got just the one hell to swear about fyi
[ he assumes "seven hells" is similar enough to that. ]
but that is so much worse thank you
guessing you haven't fired off anything that cringy?
[ now he knows the lady has a bit of a wilder side and all. ]
no subject
[ how did this get so theological ]
I did send a picture of a dress I wasn't sure I should wear to a boy I've never met.
[ and a message to Theon that asked about Theon so that was awkward... ]

that sounds like a nice change of pace
it's such bullshit how people go back
[ that's eggsy for sorry about your dad. ]

"Bullshit" is a nice way of putting it. It seems I am learning many useful expressions, today.
[ that's Sansa for thank you. and because she can read the undertone, there, ] I'm sorry if it's happened to people you love, too.
no subject
