I'm fine. I'm in my rover. Are you?
no subject
Yes, I'm safe. I just wanted to be sure. Is anyone missing from yours?
no subject
We're all here. I'm not used to being in here all together for so long, it feels really cramped.
no subject
I know. But I think it's better than being out there. Something's going on, and I don't think it's friendly.
no subject
They promised they'd keep us safe.
no subject
They've made a lot of promises.
no subject
Do you think they'll keep any of them?
no subject
Honestly? No, I don’t. I don’t see why they’d keep their word. They tricked me into coming here, and now that contract is sealed and unbreakable despite it.
FROM: d'artagnan@cdc.org
If they’re willing to do that, they can’t be trusted. I don’t believe a word of their promises. Do you?
no subject
They tricked me into coming here too.
FROM: stark.arya@cdc.org
But Ghost made me another promise. I have to believe that one. Even if I know deep down they're all liars.
no subject
Ghost did? What did he say?
no subject
When we were off scouting, there was another place. Another planet, one of fire and volcanoes. My sister was there. He promised that the CDC would keep her safe. Because if she's there, she must be on someone's crew there.
[She's still not convinced of that, personally. But at least she had something to hold over them now.]
no subject
The place with the walking mountains. I went there too, I saw it. All of it. And the people.
FROM: d'artagnan@cdc.org
The instructors told me the same. For what it’s worth, I hope that one was not a lie.
FROM: d'artagnan@cdc.org
What does your sister look like, Arya? If I see her, I’ll protect her. You have my word.
no subject
She's tall and pretty. She has auburn hair. She's not a fighter, she wouldn't last out here.
FROM: stark.arya@cdc.org
Thank you. I will owe you a lot, if she stays safe.
no subject
You won't owe me anything, that's what friends do. What's her name?
no subject
Then I'll look out for whoever you found on the volcano world.
FROM: stark.arya@cdc.org
Sansa Stark.
[Sansa Lannister, now, if the gown she was wearing indicated what Arya thought it had. She'd not stopped long enough to find out. The anger still burns in her at the very idea.]
no subject
Sansa. That’s a pretty name.
[ Like Arya’s, it’s completely foreign to him. ]
FROM: d'artagnan@cdc.org
My friend was Aramis, and the ones I said I’d help were Elena and River. I hope we find all of them again.
FROM: d'artagnan@cdc.org
I don’t know how, though. I don’t even think we were meant to be sent to them in the first place.
no subject
I'll remember them. I'll tell you if I hear anything at all.
[She's already reciting the names in her head. Aramis. Elena. River. It's nice to have a list of people to find, rather than to dispatch.]
FROM: stark.arya@cdc.org
Maybe there's some way we can get back.
no subject
I know you will. Thanks, Arya.
FROM: d'artagnan@cdc.org
If there is a way, I'm going. I won't leave them behind.
no subject
Promise you'll take me back there with you.
no subject
You have my word.
