Margaery. [ my lady, although she doesn't say it. the sentiment is thick on her tongue. your grace. there is little more humbling -- little more apt to remind you of your place and lot in life -- than to confront the painful truth. and the starks have done a great deal of confronting the past few weeks. ] May we talk?
[ Margaery's voice is light and warm, as it tends to be when Sansa seeks her company. She had wanted to seek her company herself, her latest conversation with the King in the North had made it clear that there was much turmoil for the Stark clan.
Peace does not seem to find the wolves, not even here. ]
[ does it? she wonders. what an unfair thing to question -- she ought to allow margaery her generosity, and her kindness. but sansa is feeling particularly hollowed out today. ]
Your eyes are sharp. You must have saw the questions asked by my brother. Haven't you?
It was simpler to merely...be here, and be happy. [ everything is complex, now. she pauses -- hesitates. ] Would you mind coming aboard the Blue Fish for the afternoon?
[ she wants a friend she doesn't have to lie to -- or, at least, who will allow her lies if they must be told. she wants someone who will hold her hand and sing with her and maybe simply sit and sew.
she wants peace. margaery feels peaceful, to her. ]
[ if margaery minds the shuttles, she doesn't let it show. a retching woman on the floor is the first sign of weakness and she will not let the Atroma know. she keeps the fear of the speed and the sickness to herself, steels herself for a moment when the shuttle lands before pinching her cheeks to give them color and only then climbs down.
there is a smile there as soon as she sees her, her arms spread ]

Forgive me, it may not be my place but I do think you have spared him for as long as you could and that was out of kindness.

I would never wish to grieve any of them so. I would do exactly as you have done, sweetling and I would have thought of it as a kindness.
