'So you believe me about the white walkers and the night king?' jon asked as he walked the grounds with jac and kat. Jac was walking, falling and walking but mainly walking. She would wobble ahead of them and fall onto her butt, pull herself up by the time kat and jon caught up with her.

'I believe you. Lat time I didn't believe in something I nearly died. I wont be the ignorant one. I believe you.' Kat told him.

'so mermaids... and kracken?'

'tricky beasts, not for new men to handle. Even expiranced men lose their lives everyday to mermaids.' Kat warned him. 'but I think I could make a real man out of you.'

'I'm a real man.'

'a man yes but no man is a real man without a little bit of pirate running through his veins.' Kat said

'is that an offer?' jon questioned as she picked up jac.

'after this war, I'm taking jac. I'm setting sail...'

'where will you go?'

'I don't know yet. It will be an adventure. If we both survive this... I would very much like my brother to come with me.'

'really?'

'so much out there, so much...' she was chewing at her lip as she turned away from jon and looked over the water. 'I believe your white walkers are real... whats to say they stop at the seven kingdoms... whats to say they don't try and take over the rest of the world? So I'm staying to fight them, to kill them, and then I'm gone. The ocean calls to me every moment of every day.' Jon nodded he understood that need to be somewhere, to do something.

'You would be the captain?'

' obviously.' She said turning to him. 'I learned from the best. I wont steer you wrong jon snow.'

'where is your ship?' jon asked jac reached for him smiling and he took her from kat. Jac pulled at his black hair.

'be nice jac jac.' Kat warned.

'its fine.' Jon said bouncing her in his arms.

'I don't have a ship anymore. But I believe that dani would give me one if I requested... hell if I said I'm leaving today and taking you with me she would let me go...'

'she would?' jon questioned.

'if I asked for a ship and some rations she would supply it... she might not give you to me but that's wishful thinking.'

'why would she do that?' jon questioned.

'she is the queen, a rightful queen with a good head on her shoulders... these people love her, they will die for her...' kat told him, leaning against the wall.

'these people... not you.'

'I like dani, shes a good girl. She will be a good queen but shes not my queen.'

'who do you follow?' jon wondered.

'the ocean is a cruel mistress jon snow. she takes and she gives. I worship the sea. I would have died on my ship with my crew. As they sunk to the bottom of the ocean...' kat informed him.

'the ocean took your friends yet-'

'she gives and she takes.' Kat repeated. 'every ruler takes and gives, takes and gives, take and take and take until there is nothing but ashes and rubble. Metaphorically and actually.' Kat told him. Jac was resting her head on jons shoulder as he rubbed her back, a smile pulled at kats lips seeing that. so not her whole blood family was shit.

'you think dani is going to burn kings landing?'

'I think her dragons can burn your ice monsters... fight ice with fire.'
