[dont_tell_sansa]

[Today Arya is somehow turning her screen green as a post introductory; when the colors right themselves, the video's totally upside down. But if you tilt your head, she's sitting on a white branch, smiling. The video keeps getting bumped, because she's swinging her legs back and forth. Eventually she lifts the device, though, peering at it. She

[ Pretty?

Cross Alayne is terribly cross. She expects Arya to run off from time to time, but that doesn't mean she likes it. ]

Artos. Get down from there this instant. You found a way up, you can certainly find a way back down again.

[She's picking at a piece of bark on the trunk when she hears that, and it's a long moment before she turns to the device again, eyebrows raised in confusion and plenty of curiosity.]

Artos? [She gives up on the bark, swinging her feet back and forth again.] Is that me?

[ Normally, Alayne would grow even more cross, if only because there'd be no question that Arya was trying to goad her into anger. But there is such genuine curiosity to her sister's face, the way her eyebrows lift in a way that could almost be called sweet, that Alayne is stunned into silence for a long moment.

Eventually, though, she recovers. Others were watching, after all, and she had no means of making their conversation private. ]

Of course that's you, Artos, you mustn't play now. [ Alayne makes her voice less angry and more stern. Arya could not call her own name into question or else ruin the lie forever. ] Now get down from the tree and come home.

[The frown was slow to start, but it began between her brows. Dutifully, Arya twisted and turn, looking down to the right and left as she searched for a way off, but she looked back into the video uncertainly.]

I said I don't know how. It's too far. [And then, almost as an afterthought:] Do I live with you?

[wardenoflorien]

Little one, what are you doing there?!

[Video]

[dont_tell_sansa]

[Good question. She isn't sure.] I think I was climbing.

[wardenoflorien]

[There's a muttered word, could be an oath in Sindarin and suddenly he's moving. And fast.]
You are not safe there. I am coming.

[Video]

[dont_tell_sansa]

All right.

[But hum hum hum she is still trying to get down.] Who are you?

[typicalsoldier]

Do you need help down? [Because as far as he is aware, people weren't climbing it.]

[dont_tell_sansa]

[lol for good reason :C]

I don't know. [Frownnn she's already started, but.] Maybe. I don't remember how I came up.

[typicalsoldier]

You probably climbed up.

[dont_tell_sansa]

Then I can probably climb down, can't I? [It's an honest question. That's how this climbing thing works, right. :\]

Looks like someone didn't get the memo 'bout that tree being a whole load of crazy stuffed into an oversized Christmas decoration, huh?

[video]

[dont_tell_sansa]

...Huh?

[She understood some of those words. :|a] What's a Christmas?

[video]

[hung_garian]

It's a very rare animal that only exists in zoos these days. You'd like it. It's fluffy.

[video]

[dont_tell_sansa]

Do I like fluffy things? [She will forever think a Christmas is an animal. :c]

[ Have a very concerned looking Alayne, Ezio. ]

Please. You must help him. He is bewitched.

[ Alayne is quite good at looking distressed as well, though this time there is no affectation - it is genuine. Her voice wavers in concern, though she makes a concerted effort not to look too weak or pleading. ]

He holds no memory of me and our kinship nor, truly, his name. I had thought him guilty of sport at first, but- [ Alayne shakes her head. ] -he is an unruly boy, but never cruel. And it cruel is what it would be for him to spin such a tale.
