"I missed you," Sansa says, trying to draw herself up and put on her manners like so much armor. Piece by piece, she slides them back into place until she is a proper lady of the court again and not a little girl. Robb brings back so many good memories just by being here but she must reserve herself, must keep those emotions tightly bound.

"I missed you more than breathing, Robb, you and mother both. I thought...I thought I would never see you again. They told me you were killed at the Twins."
