The Hound, the Imp and the Cripple // Tyrion Lannister

You're welcome

'Brandon can we talk?' Kitty asked coming up behind him

'Katarina I'm so very sorry for how I treated you-' Bran told her when she walked around to the front of his wheel chair.

'You were just kid, you were following along with what everyone else was telling you it's not entirely your fault...' kitty told him. 'you had bad role models.'

'Yes but you are always sweet to me and I still treated you like crap. I had a mind of my own I didn't have to follow along with everyone else... I'm sorry you didn't deserve that you did deserve for any of it.' Kitty nodded. No she deserved better then she got but it was too late to change the past she could only focus on the future and the present.

'Could you find in your heart to forgive me?' bran asked and kitty thought about it for a long moment, the snow falling around them. Her black cloak turning white from the snow, snowflakes clinging to her eyelashes. She let out a deep sigh.

'I'm going to try.' He nodded understanding.

'I have the sight now.' Brand told her

'What does that mean?'

'I can transport my conscience into animals, people.'

'What does that mean?' She repeated

'It means I've seen a lot, ive grown a lot, I'm not the same person you once knew.'

'Do you mean how you saw the white walkers destroy the wall?' kitty asked.

'yeah like I saw the white walkers destroy the wall.' He confirmed.

'So with the sight what... how does it work?' kitty questioned she had never even heard of the sight before, only in books years ago but all it said was people with the sight were witches.

'I focus and I go where I want I've been practicing mastering it over the years. When I use the sight I get to run again as a dog or a wolf or a bear and I get to fly is Raven. I can go and people to.' he told her.

'You can go on to people like possess them?' kitty questioned, that was a terrifying thought.

'It's harder to control people than it is animals but yes.' He told her.

'Thats cool. That's also really really terrifying.'

'Don't worry I would never possess you unless you were in trouble and needed help.' He assured her.

'Who have you possessed?' kitty wondered.

'Hodar. A few others to get information but mainly Hodar.' Bran told her, she pulled her cloak tighter around her. she took another deep breath and snow fell from her cloak and swirled to the ground.

'Why did you do it?'

'Because we were in trouble and he was freaking out and we needed his help so he needed mine.' Bran told her simply.

'Wow that's... Wow.' Kitty didn't know weather to be terrified for impressed, both possibly.

'You know don't you?' bran questioned and kitty looked to his face, his pale face and dark hair, his eyes sadder then they used to be.

'What do I know?' Kiity questioned

'That Jaime Lannister is the one that pushed me out the window...' Kitty nodded

'I saw the way you two are looking at each other I saw that pain and guilt wash across his face. That statement you made the things you do for love... you said it so calmly as though you're repeating someone else's words.' Kitty told him,

'That's what he said to me. He was debating with his sister and what to do because I had caught them in the act, fucking each other... and he said the things I do for love and pushed me.' bran told her

'Oh Brandon I'm so sorry' kitty said wanting to hug him but she stood her ground. 'does anyone know? I'm assuming they don't since he still had his head.' Kitty questioned.

'No one but you and me.' kitty felt her heart melt a bit, he trusted her enough to tell her this.

'and I'm assuming you don't want me to say anything to anyone?' he nodded.

'You and I have both been a lot since then' bran remarked.

'Yeah we really have.' Kitty agreed.

'I am so very sorry kitty. On behalf of myself and everyone that has passed, Robb and Rickon and I cannot believe what awful human beings we were to you... I'm sorry.'

Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry. Kitty thought as bran pleaded to her.

'You were the sweetest. You are the sweetest' he corrected 'most wonderful person ever and we were all assholes to you.'

'Yeah you really were she told him... All I wanted, all I ever wanted was a family with someone that loved me. I had Jon, I had father but I would've really liked to have my siblings... would've really liked to have friends growing up, a family didn't think me a pariah...' she couldn't look at him, it hurt to much.

'I cannot take back what we did what I did but I promise you I'm going to try and be a better brother be the best brother. So so sorry kitty I am so so sorry.' Bran told her

'Thank you. That means a lot. Perhaps we can just be friends... I already have a new brother and a new sister and a husband and the baby on the way.' she put her hands on her stomach the little bump getting bigger and bigger.

'Jon told me that you had married Tyrion ,that you had a little baby in your tummy.' Bran smiled up at her she twisted and turned in the snow feeling a tight ness in her chest.

'I'm really happy, at least i was before we came here...' she confessed. 'I was really happy. I had a new family and friends and people that loved me. People that loved me more than my own supposed real family, my own blood...' she wiped at her eyes. 'It was nice to see that the world wasn't as screwed up as I thought it was. It was nice to see that not everyone thought I was a monster or an abomination like mother convinced all of you i was.' Bran opened his mouth to speak but she kept going. 'I always loved you, all of you. No matter how much shit you put me through I always loved all of you because that's what you're supposed to do... you're supposed to love your family! you're supposed to protect your family...' she sobbed out.

'But Kings Landing changed things for you?' he remembered how kitty treated sansa, he didn't know what happened, sansa didn't say anything about her time there besides the fact that she hated the lannisters. Sansa must have really hurt kitty.

'Mother kidnapped me and tyrion.' Kitty shook the snow form her hair, getting colder with every word spoken. 'She said awful things about me and wanted our aunt to throw me out the moon door. Help execute me... and believe it or not things got worse after that.' she told him.

'Kitty im so sorry i had no idea-'

'I met Sandor and he's one of the most wonderful man. But kings landing was awful and I didn't start to feel like I had a home until we met Daenerys. Daenerys... she took us in, she protected us. she took me in. she protected ME. She made me her sister and her friend... So as much as I would have loved to hear you say you're sorry three, four years ago it means less now that I've moved on and I'm happy and I have a new family that loves me unconditionally.' She told him. She didn't yell, she didn't scream as she did with sansa. She spoke the words confidently. She had a new family now. She was not the same person he knew. She was braver. She was strong. She was a wife and she was going to be a mother. She had something she was fighting for too.

'I understand' Bran said defeated

'But I would like... But I would like to,' kitty repeated taking a deep breath cold air sucking into her lungs. 'to be your friend or at least try to be civil.' Kitty told him

'I would like that very much. Thank you.' Bran told her reaching out and grabbing her hand, she gave his hand a squeeze.

'You're welcome. Excuse me I have to go find Tyrion.'
