Oi, [Comes the booming voice of one redhead, trying to understand this thing on her wrist. For a moment she shakes her wrist before looking back down.]

You lot, if y'can see me. [She's just looking down scornfully. Wildlings don't even understand Southern technology and you want to throw this at her.]

I have a few choice words for your gods, but first. Jon Snow, if y'be here, you best reply to me here. Don't think I've forgot about you, just 'cuz I've wound up here. You know nothing. [She has some hope that if these gods could choose her, he'd be here, too. Then the Crows wouldn't matter (not that they did to begin with). But neither would the Wall nor her people.]

You other lot, not bein' Jon Snow, I'd ask the same as I did them girls I talked to. What keeps you from goin' outside the city? Where I'm from we do as we please, the Free Folk. No god cares 'bout what we do as men. Or women. Why fight their war? I fought my own war because some Southern king decided years ago he'd put my people behind some great wall. I decided to be a spearwife to lodge me own spear up every Crow whose crossed into our land's ass. [That didn't exactly happen, but semantics.]

It was my lands though. If y'can't fight for what's yours, maybe you never deserved it. Don't need no named god tellin' me that.

I hear you on that. Still, we're stuck until they decide to send us home. Not saying you have to do anything for 'em, but you might just do it out of boredom.

You know, eventually.

There's plenty to find yerself doin'. But if fightin' is what y'like none can blame you. A girl here told me she fought. 'Cuz she had what she had here, and it was better than home.

I can respect that.

A lot of people here've got it like that.

You like to fight, yourself, I take it.

Aye, I'm a spearwife.

Best kind of wife to be, if you ask me.

[She laughs.]

I can take a man, too. It just means I've earned my spear.

I've never been married, technically. But I'd still rather be married to a spear than a man any day.

[ he's playing that back in his head, and no. no, it doesn't make any sense. ] ...You know?

A man keeps y'warmer in yer furs at night, but a woman with her own spear can keep herself safe. Why can't I have both? [Surprisingly modern given her time period.]

[ he's painted himself into a corner here!!!!! why is talking to women always a trap. ]

I just meant... I don't know what the bloody hell I'm talking about, actually. Fair?

[She actually laughs.]

I've found most men don't know what they're talkin' about. But it's good you admit it.

Which is why I was saying, you're probably better off without one. Not that you couldn't have one and all, if you wanted. I think it's technically a free country or something.

Probably. The one I had betrayed me, but I was still his. [She frowns, but then shakes it off.]

So you're a fighter then.

[ he feels like he's being inspected under a microscope like a very tiny bug. which is apropos for so many reasons. ]

You could say that. My fists tend to precede my head on most things. [ or his heart... or his dick. ]

So you're no good at it?

At fighting? It's about the only thing I am good at, but I'm no war strategist. I'm English, I just hit people. Someone else can do the braining.

What's that? Where you're from? English... [Never mind her accent isn't much different than yours.]

Right, England. Old Blighty. The big muffin in the sky.

...On the channel, anyway. [ he shrugs, it's not that important anyway. ]

Haven't been there in a century or so, don't worry about it.

Must be different lands. I live in the land above the Wall, below is the Seven Kingdoms.

...Yeah, must be. Shouldn't be so shocked by it, these days.

Still, a guy can hope for countrymen. And birds.

[What? Spike, sometimes you just throw in random words don't you?]

Birds?

Women, ladies. You lot.

[ he does throw in random words though. ]

Oooh. Glad to know where your tastes lie then. [Smirking.]

I was just trying to be PC.

A what?

Politically correct.
