CAROLYN FRY

My little brother, his name is Bran. I showed him the windows and he's been visiting them a lot. He likes the shuttle bay. I thought mayhaps you could take him on too?

[ she rushes on quickly before carolyn can say no. ]

I can teach him what I know so you don't have to. I'll keep an eye on him. He's really very smart. He learns fast and he'll obey. He has a direwolf too. Two of them would be better than one. We can train them to follow Han.

[ she's joking about the last part. maybe. ]

I'm always looking for more help.

[ She'll get that part out of the way before Arya hurts herself trying to explain why Bran should be allowed to come work in the shuttle bay. ]

One of us will still keep an eye on him when working, though if you're willing to show him what you've already learned, that will definitely help. I wouldn't mind direwolves following Han, either.

[ Another joke, maybe. ]

But does he want to?

[ UH… ]

I haven't asked him yet. I wanted to see if he could first and surprise him.

There's another thing. [ she normally would not being it up because it does not matter. bran can do anything he wishes as far as arya is concerned. but she has a duty to see him safe always. ] He cannot walk. He has these metal legs that let him move, but without them he can't. That…wouldn't be a problem, would it?

Well, if he'd like to, he's more than welcome.

[ Ah. She can see why Arya would be worried -- in fact, back home, Bran would be lucky to have been kept by his family and not thrown out into the streets for all but the richest of people. Still, this isn't home, and Carolyn doesn't mind. It takes all kinds. ]

No, it's not a problem. There may be some tasks that he won't be able to do as well, but we'll find him other ones to do instead.

All right. Good. [ she's so proud of herself, she done gud!! ] I'll ask him then and let you know.

[ oh. wait. almost forgot. ]

Thank you!

[ The smile is clear in Carolyn's voice. ]

You're welcome.

[ BACKDATED TO JUST A FEW MINUTES AFTER HER LAST MESSAGE. ]

He said yes! I told him he could go with me tomorrow so I could start showing him around.

[ A smile. ]

Sounds good. I'll see you two there.
