Summary
Sansa had been the first. Brienne’s first. Long ago, Brienne had thought she loved, she thought she knew devotion, but now it seems only a child’s game – spillikins scattered over the floor, a rag doll worn soft with attention. From the first moment that Sansa moved into her arms and turned her face up to be kissed, Brienne had known the difference.

Summary
They do their best to make their peace unpeaceful. They squabble like hens, clucking and scratching, pecking at one another for little reason. She’s never known someone so adept with a jab or a jape, capable of mixing fondness and scorn so seamlessly. At first it had angered her beyond all measure. She rose to his bait every time, until she was red-faced and impotent with fury at his gall, his temerity. She’d been treated as a queen for too long, it occurs to her now; she’d known how to deal with worship, with love, with anger and opposition, with criticism, even hatred. What she hadn’t known was how to be teased.

Summary
"Forgive me, for I am not acting myself, but these bees in my breath have to come out." - Bear's Den, 'Bad Blood'.
Pain is an old friend to Sandor, and anger has been his ally for as long as he can recall. Stark’s not nearly angry enough. And he’ll never know half of the pain Sandor has. The new Hand takes the boy’s wrapped corpse in his arms, and goes, hunched slightly by the weight of it. He was tall for his age, the butcher’s boy. Fast, too. Sandor heard he was playing at swords when Joffrey came upon them. He might have made a halfway decent knight. Or not. After all, he wasn’t fast enough.
He takes off his helm, dismisses his men, and as he rides back towards the stables, he sees her. The bastard girl is watching him, her hands in tight fists at her sides, face wet with tears. And her mouth contorts in a hateful snarl as she watches him go. Most girls of fourteen don’t look at him like that. They don’t look at him at all; they study the ground, avert their eyes, or grimace and duck their heads.
This one is just an older image of the youngest, the wolf girl whose bitch started all of this. Now the little bird’s lost her own pup, and the Snow looks close to baying for his blood.
