♣ 6 ♣ [video]

[The device turns on, revealing a Loras who looks...tired. He has been sleeping for two weeks (he has looked at the date), but he feels no more rested than he would, before.

He has been home. Living for months without knowledge of this place. But as he has woken up--he remembers the prophecy, the future he saw, so many weeks ago.

He knows that when he returns home, it will come true.

There is no escaping it.

So if he looks more serious, older, well. It is just the way of things, now.]

It seems while I slept, I returned home. I do not understand how it has occurred or why I have returned but--

--I can not deny the truth of it.

[He runs his free hand through his mess of curls.]

Can someone tell me what I have missed?

And--how many of you have returned home, and had no recollection of this place? Is that how it happens, always? With no way to use the knowledge of things learned here, back in our worlds?

[To avoid his fate--oh he wishes that he could.]

I am sure you would have enjoyed it! Robb and I made a snowman together, and Clara showed me to do ice sculptures. I had a lovely time.

[She smiles softly at him.] Yes, it is wonderful to see my brother again.

Ohhh... I understand... [She sighs.] As long as the Queen does not find me... I mean, Queen Cersei, not your sister, of course.

And the snow did not trouble you? Though I do suppose, winter is in your blood.

I prefer the sunshine and flowers myself.

[Loras frowns.]

I wish that woman would just trip on the stairs and break her neck, frankly.

She--

--she is refusing to send men to the Reach, to protect my people, unless I take Dragonstone.

Not at all, Ser, I find the snow to be comforting... Though when I arrived there was no snow, but a heat wave.

[She smiles at him.] You are the Knight of the Flowers, after all...

[It's not very ladylike to wish something like that but...] I can only agree with you, Ser. [Sansa frowns as well.] But it is the King's duty to defend his people... Don't they want us all to be their people?

The weather here is always strange, it seems. It follows no rhyme or reason.

[He snorts.]

Tommen is a good boy, and in time will be a wonderful King.

But Cersei--

--she would rather see the Tyrells weakened.

Do you mean there are no true seasons? I believe that it is supposed to be winter at this time...

[She smiles a bit.]

Yes, Tommen is quite nice, and Myrcella too. I never got to talk too much with them, but it's hard to imagine them being Joffrey's siblings.

[She shakes her head.]

Cersei would see everyone who is not a Lannister weakened or dead...

...sometimes when events happen here, the weathers change, as well. But--what are seasons? I have never experienced a true winter.

[He smiles at the memories.]

I never got to know Myrcella, but Tommen...until Cersei forbid it, I was helping train him. I am glad that whatever is wrong with Joffrey did not pass to them.

[He shakes his head.]

Well, hopefully someone will find a way to have her dead. Even Jamie seems more well reasoned than her, now.

Ohhh... I understand... [She looks thoughtful.] Winter was starting when I came here... But maybe it comes earlier in the mountains...

You mean train him to become a knight? A true knight like you, Ser? [Because The Mountain, Ser Meryn and that mercenary Tyrion knighted, for example, are killers who call themselves knights.]

Ser Jaime returned to King's Landing?

I have never experienced a full winter, before arriving here.

[Loras nods.]

Aye, to both questions. Though Jamie has arrived without one hand.

Oh dear... That is terrible... [Not.]

...I think somewhere, within him, there was a chance for a good man, once.

It might be, Ser, he is a knight... But... [She sighs.] He is also a Lannister...

So is Tommen, and Mycella.

I am not saying trust him--far from it. But he is not his sister, nor Joffrey.

[She bites her lip and nods.]

I suppose Ser Jaime is not the worst Lannister...

And better, as well.

Regardless, I won't let him harm you, either.

Thank you, Ser Loras... I trust you, and it is good to know you live in the same house as I.

I only wish Margaery was still here--she would be so pleased to see you more, I'm sure.

And I would be more than pleased to see her again, she was so kind to me, and I owe her much.

...you hold no grudge, for what happened during the wedding?

I wanted Joffrey dead as much as she did... [She blushes to even admit that.]

And it gave me the chance to leave King's Landing... I just wish your family could have taken me to High Garden before the Lannisters found out about it...

[Well, at least she holds no grudges.]

Yes, I wish that as well. You truly would have loved it. And Willas.

I...I can only hope I ever see home again.

[No, the Tyrells helped her much, or tried to at least, even when they risked the Lannister's displeasure.

She blushes when he mentions Willas.] I was already looking forward to meet him, and to see Highgarden...

Maybe you will, Ser, if we win the war here.

If I return home...I may be going to my death, Lady Sansa.

[She bites her lip.]

The Lannisters...?

Cersei sent me to take Dragonstone. I had...I had premonitions, here, that I was burned horribly in a fire.

During a battle. ...I recognize that place now, as Dragonstone.

Oh gods... That is terrible... Dying in a fire... [She shivers.]

Could it have been just a nightmare?
