    Summary

    Lucy’s cheeks were turning pink when she finally said, “Let me get this straight. You want me to pretend to date you? For a conference discount?”

    Lockwood stiffened. “I wasn’t going to put it that way, but I suppose that’s not untrue. I assure you that I won’t do anything untoward.”

    “That’s hardly the problem with this situation.”

    “So, what is the problem?” There was no doubt about it: this was the worst idea he had ever had. Lockwood summoned up every ounce of charm he possessed to flash Lucy a reassuring smile.

    -----

    Lockwood’s been looking for a way to get Lucy back all winter, and when DEPRAC decides to host a weekend conference, he finally gets his chance. And if there’s a discount on registration fees for couples (excuse me, pairs)? That’s even better.

    Doing the right thing, Lucy finds, is a lot less fun when no one else is on board.

    Summary

    Fives times Arya shocks her siblings and one time they shock her.

    When they’re young, of course they know Arya is the wild one. But it’s not until she gets old enough to start sitting in on the lessons Sansa had used to take alone that they realise how wild she really is. At first, the little sister she had always wanted sits in on the sewing and music lessons with a sort of stubborn single-mindedness to get it all right. It’s clear to everyone, though, particularly to Septa Mordane, that Arya is not gifted like Sansa is gifted.

    Arya can’t sew a straight line, even when given instruction, and when they’re listening to the songs about knights she only cares about the ladies with swords and the names of dragons, not the love story at the core — not the most important bits. And she doesn’t understand Jeyne’s japes and she doesn’t have any comments to make about the comeliness of certain stablehands or — or anything.
