walking.

[theladyofwinterfell]

WHO: Sansa Stark
WHERE: Network
WHAT: This child is walking. Seriously.
WHEN: late April
WARNINGS: TBD


( Sansa uploads a short video to the network before she goes live - James has finally taken his first steps and she's so delighted to have caught it on camera. She knows there will be plenty more after this, of course, but she cannot be prouder. )

James is walking! I think his nameday is in a fortnight or so - it's hard to keep track - but he's started walking over the last few days and I wanted everyone to know.

( Sansa tucks her hair behind her ears and grins a bit. )

I also would like to ask if I could get someone to mind him for a night or two this week? Just for a few hours. I'd like some time to myself that isn't sleeping.

That...makes sense, but yeah, makes me glad for you that you're here.

Not that leaving duty behind is easy in my experience.

[theladyofwinterfell]

It's not. If I hadn't been here before and left, if I didn't know much time doesn't pass for my people - I would worry that they had no leader. Instead, I know they are safe when I am here.

[ezra_of_lothal]

Is that how it works for everyone? Gotta be honest, I do not want to be dumped back to the moment I came from.

And you've got James...how does that even?

[Work.]

[theladyofwinterfell]

I'm not sure. I was certain if I ever left, he wouldn't come with me and somehow he did. I had to hide him when I returned home because I could never explain him otherwise but he's happy and healthy and returned.

Perhaps the Agrii need him.

[ezra_of_lothal]

Hopefully they don't have any ideas about starting a monarchy here.

[He's mostly joking, but really what could they need a specific baby for?

He's a little comforted for Padmes and her babies' sakes though. Hopefully if they all went back, they'd go together, and be happy and healthy, too - with enough information to keep them that way.]

[theladyofwinterfell]

I wouldn't want one and I'm a queen. We're too different a group of people, I think. If everyone was of my country or yours, we could set up one of those governments but it's not the case.

( And Sansa thinks it would only lead to strife. )

[ezra_of_lothal]

I'll take your word for it. I don't really know what makes a government better or worse, aside from the morals of the people in charge.
