Lovely bird...

Legolas was curled up on the couch, his curls still slightly damp from his shower and is legs covered by a blanket as he watched the spooky movie on the television. “I can hear you, you know. You did a better job of sneaking earlier.”

"Maybe," she answered as last, and was even polite enough to reply in english, keeping Grover infront of her just in case.

Bird lands on a page about itself.

That’s a solid plan, I’d say. Will you be staying home or going out?

Sorry about - I, um, sorry. (She’s getting better. She truly is. But he seems as flinchy as she’s been, and it’s - odd, to see from the outside.)

He’s upset and tired about that, and now he has to tell the voice inside him that keeps repeating and comparing enough so it shuts up. That he’s trying, that he’s better than he used to be, a lot of facts that the bad part of his brain just doesn’t want to keep track of. ]

(She might be alright with the foreign languages, if she applied herself, but she can’t see the point of learning to “speak” anything out of a book instead of from a person. She only gets by in history by pretending it’s fiction when she reads it, and then pretending of course she knows it’s reality when talking about it. Mathematics seem to jump from common sense to utter nonsense and back again, and chemistry is just nonsense bouncing around among more nonsense.)

[ They had been talking long enough to be at the point of introductions, right? ]

"Lyanna, no!” The half-grown pup is well-behaved and stays at Sansa’s heel, most of the time - unless she comes across an especially interesting smell like the one on this stranger’s shoes. Sansa gets a hand into her collar and tugs her close before the silly beast trips someone. “I’m so sorry-“

Animals were scary and not really predictable.

Sansa steps between her dog and the woman, leash held tight in one hand. “I’m sorry - she was just curious, she truly didn’t mean any harm.”

   ❝ I’m sorry, I don’t …care if it’s harmless, I just really don’t like dogs. ❞

Lyanna begins to wag her tail, tired of lying here all still and quiet, and Sansa crouches to rest a hand on her head.

(The minimum for the assignment is four pages. Sansa’s already far past that, and she hasn’t even gotten into how many times someone could have hit the main male character in the face.)

   ❝ …Nice. ❞
