001 👑 my tears are always frozen
Who: Sansa Stark & You
What: Exploration
When: during the first week of arrival
Where: Greenhouse, "Hotel", Fountain
Warnings: None at this time; will update if necessary
001. fountain
( Sansa isn't certain about Agra 10 just yet. She'd adapted well enough to the Fleet, as it was, and then she'd returned to Westeros for a whirlwind of events. She remembers being with Tyrion as a true wife and it'd been wonderful for the short time she'd experienced it; it hadn't been something she'd done upon return to Westeros but would Tyrion have remembered? Would he have even accepted her advances without thinking it a trick? She doesn't know.
Now, however, she finds herself before a fountain. She remembers them in King's Landing, ornate things where water jumped and played. They were of little use, other than ornament, but this one has cool, clear water and Sansa tests it by cupping her hands and bringing it to her lips to drink. It's sweet water, too, and she thinks this is an important thing to remember; she has no idea what other water might be on the planet. She's dribbled it all over her front when she hears someone approach and she clears her throat a bit, startled. )
Sorry, I was just testing to see if it was drinkable. It seems that it is so if we cannot find additional water, at least we have this.
002. greenhouse
( Sansa finds herself drawn to a room that seems, for all the world, quite like the glass gardens at Winterfell. Those glass gardens have been destroyed both by the Boltons and later by the Night King but Sansa remembers how they were when she was a girl. She spots a glowing container with seeds in it and touches it lightly, surprised to realize she knows everything about the plants in this room just now. She knows which are edible and which aren't and she knows how to tend them as well.
She goes through the rows of plants, touching something like a cherry and something like one of the ripe, sweet melons of the Summer Isles. There's a berry that's as poisonous as Tears of Lys and Sansa keeps well away from it, not even daring to touch it. There's another that looks rather like the plant that makes The Strangler but it seems to be perfectly benign. When she sees someone else about to pop one of the poisonous berries into their mouth, she holds up her hands and shouts. )
No, don't! It's poison! There are others which are good but not that one. Come, let me show you which are all right to eat and which aren't.
003. hotel
( Sansa had been used to her accommodations in the Fleet and while they were austere, they were clean and safe. There's no such thing here on Agra 10. The only beds seem to be in an abandoned hotel and they seem dusty with disuse. She doesn't know where she's going to lay her head tonight but she'll need to clear out a room and claim it.
It doesn't take long to make one of the rooms livable. There's no mattresses but the furniture is still in good shape. There doesn't seem to be any damage, really, only the lack of mattress for the bed presents a problem. Sansa thinks she can stuff a mattress if she must but she decides she might look over in the hospital to see if they have one instead; before she creates, she would rather improvise. The Gods have provided for her in the Fleet before so perhaps they will here.
She steps into the corridor and almost bowls into another person. It's not like her, at all, but she recovers and gives the person a small smile. )
Forgive me, I've managed to nearly knock you down. I was too focused on how to make this room livable, apparently.

I'm so glad you and Wanda are here together. I would want it no other way for you, truly. I couldn't have been the queen without you, Vision. War was so difficult and I lost faith in the good of people, the desire of people to want something more than just satisfying their base desires. You taught me how to believe again and I can never thank you enough for it.
no subject
What is lost can be found again, my dear. If I helped to set you on the right track for it, I am deeply moved.
[He squeezes her shoulders and lets go, still smiling.]
I cannot think of a frame of mind I would more gladly see in a leader. I'm very proud of you, Sansa.
[There's so much to work on here that he's concerned he might lose sight of things under the pile of tasks to be done sometimes, but...only for a moment. Because he has friends like Sansa who help give him a fresh perspective, and what could be more important than that?]
no subject
( Vision has knowledge that Sansa never has even thought about before and his ways at looking at things are certainly different from her own. He's a valuable asset, she thinks, no matter the task. )
What are you doing at this very moment?
no subject
At the question his eyes light up, and he lifts up the basket he'd set down before.]
Gathering breakfast foods, actually. Finding this greenhouse was a great boon. Most of the plants here are edible, and the data point is invaluable in letting us know their properties. Would you like to try one of these flower petals?
no subject
( It reminds Sansa of the augments, in a way, though she's noticed her augment from the Fleet doesn't seem to work the way it used to. It's strange, yes, but something to think on later. )
no subject
The building here is vast, and there are many overgrown sections of the city as well. We should have no trouble feeding us all, even without hunting as a supplement.
[He grabs one of the flower petals and hands it to her - it's sweet and bready, but not overly so. An American would think it's mild, but anyone else would think it's pleasantly sweet.]
no subject
Oh, I like it. Perhaps these plants are different from what I'm used to but I want to learn all of them. We should make our way through this greenhouse together, Vision, and make a list of each plant and what it does.
no subject
I'd like that. A young man named Tommy and I have been working to clean up the bottom few levels - clear out the debris, transplant certain varieties to a place that makes more sense, and the like. But the building is massive, and a catalog would be most useful.
--Tommy will be the one with pale hair who moves very quickly. He's also called Speed.
no subject
I'll help you clean and catalogue this place, though. I want to be able to get my hands on all the plants here and know their uses.
( Vision has always encouraged this in her, curiosity, and she's glad they're discovering this new world together. )
no subject
[He grins at her, thinking about how for all that she's a Queen now she probably knows a lot more about surviving in this low-tech ruin than most of the people from twenty-first century Earth. Even the super-powered ones. (Especially some of the superpowered ones, let's be real here.)]
Excellent. Shall we begin, then?
no subject
( Sansa is terribly curious about it, after all. She'd gone back to a world in peril and not one war but three; she'd had to contend with the dead, with the winter and, eventually, with Daenerys Targaryen herself. She'd managed all three with little casualty to her immediate family but the North had been irrevocably scarred. Those that survived would never be the same. )
wrap?
Now, as you may remember, Naviadna was founded by people brought there from their own homes in the beginning....
[He'll want to hear every bit of Sansa's story that she wants to tell, of course, but he's also happy to babble about his own life with Wanda that they'd built together. It's clear from his speech that he fully expects to be able to go back to it at some point, but also that he's excited about the new challenges this new planet brings, and that he's very grateful to see his friends again. It's just not the same without the people he cares about, and Sansa definitely finds herself in that number.]
