oh , and she swears she could take flight in that moment . heart soaring at the treasured touch she'd been too long without . we're stronger together . i think we can agree on that ?

throat rumbling as she clears it , tongue wetting her lips in an attempt to seem unaffected by his sudden touch . i just .. i'm not much . i'm hardly 'ironborn' material . and what if i'm not considered strong enough ?

her grasp tightens a fraction , courage finally building up in her chest as leading her to press a kiss to the corner of his mouth . and maybe asha , if she still likes me .

lips parting to let out a heavy breath , a choked sob pulled from her at the soft touch . and now we don't ever have to run again . we're safe . we're home . we're .. we're ok .

eyes still wet , nose & cheeks red as she sniffles . emotions rather unstable after so many days apart from him . no , not compared to you .

another kiss to him , lips lingering against his temple . far too wanting to keep him with her , just like this . i'm hardly brave , theon ..

gazing up at him , moving to cup his cheek and take in all of him and how beautiful he was . as will i . till my last breath .

the smallest kiss to his skin , a faint ghost of a smile on her lips as her hands grasps his . i won't . the old gods and the new couldn't part is again . not any longer . i swear it .

lids falling shut , fist grabbing hold of his tunic as a reminder that he was in front of her , that he was real . i'm here .. i'm here and i'm not leaving again , i promise .

then i shall take that as a compliment .

well i think that she looks like a seal .

do you want to fucking test me .

an audible sigh of relief is drawn out , her face pressing into his neck as she holds onto him for dear life . eyes growing wet with tears as she realizes all too quickly how much she had needed this , him .

there's a pause , eyes wild as they look him over before she finally moves . arms finding their way around him and pulling him into her grasp .

and my dagger will slit yours before you even get close enough to do so .

she’s not though is she :/

or what , hm ?

but asha is ugly herself so that doesn’t count :/

alright , aside from you .

d — do you suppose , it'd be alright if i *** you ?
