[ you jest, typed and deleted. for this is not about her. nothing is.

and still she considers it. selfish though she is, there is nothing she wants more than to comfort tim, in his sorrows. and so — ]

Be with Embry, Ash. I shall leave him in my rooms and go to Tim.

[achilles]

Then I'll be there. Go look after Tim.

( after a beat — )

It won't always be this hard, Alicent.

There will be no easier time than this for me, Ash. You need not promise me better things.

[ ever the politician, isn’t he. ]

I hope your world will be kinder, to all three of you.

[ ash, embry, and greer. ]

[achilles]

I'll promise it anyway. We can make this place safer, better. For the time we're here, we won't let this place break us.

( see: things that are easy, extremely easy to say now that embry isn't dead )

Well, it's easier to keep him out of trouble at home, at least. I'll always protect him, whether he wants it or not.
Greer too, of course.

[ is he truly so naive to believe that — or simply kind? ]

They’re lucky to have you.
Be well, Ash.
