Five years later.

"Genesis!" Tyrion called. "Come on sweetie."

"I want to see uncle Jon." Genesis declared splashing in the waters at kings landings shores.

"He is at the wall. You know that." Tyrion reminded her.

"When is he coming back?" Genesis asked.

"Soon, hopefully."

"And Aunt Arya? She ravened me, but I don't know some of the words." Genesis recalled running out of the water.

"Your mother would be so proud of you." Tyrion remarked as Genesis read out the scroll.

"Uncle Bran was telling me a story a last night." Genesis informed him as Tyrion wrapped a towel around her and got her some dry clothes.

"What was it this time?" Tyrion asked.

"He was telling me about his sight and what is was like to fly!" Genesis declared. "You think I could fly one day, daddy?"

"I think without wings you might get hurt," Tyrion remarked "But I think we can figure something out."

"Can you make me wings?" Genesis asked. "Uncle Bran told me you made him a saddle when he first couldn't walk."

"That's right." It seemed like a century ago now.

"So you could design me wings?" Genesis said hopefully.

"Yes. I will work on that right away." Tyrion assured kissing her forehead when there was a knock on the door.

"AUNT SANSA!" Genesis declared launching at her.

"Hello my little love." Sansa coed picking her up.

""I missed you!" Genesis declared giving her a kiss.

"And I missed you!" Sansa agreed. "I'm going to have to steal you north for a while and take you up to visit Jon."

"YESS!" Genesis declared. "Daddy can we?" Genesis begged looking back at him.

"Yes." Tyrion agreed. "I think our king would agree to that."

"I miss her." Sansa whispered.

"I miss her too." Tyrion agreed softly.

"Every time I see Genesis she reminds me of willow, looks like her, despite your Lannister hair." Sansa added.

"It is bitter sweet." Tyrion agreed. "She reminds me of her, acts like her, talks back like her...' Tyrion wiped at his eyes. "I wish she was here." Tyrions lip quivered looking over to Genesis reading a story to Bran. He heard Bran helping her along with words as she stumbled.

"She would be really proud of the little girl you raised." Sansa assured.

"Team effort." Tyrion corrected. "I'm very grateful for your family... for Genesis family." Tyrion corrected and Sansa grabbed his hand. "I dream about her sometimes.' Tyrion admitted. "I dream about... just the three of us. Walking in the gardens or sitting in the sand and it feels so real." Tyrion couldn't stop the tears.

Sansa gave his hand a squeeze.

"I forget that she is gone and then I wake up and reach for her and she's not there." Tyrion whimpered out.

"She would be proud of you Tyrion. She would be so proud of you and Genesis." Sansa assured

"I'm trying, but I feel like she could be doing such a better job." Tyrion told her and Genesis jumped off Bran's lap moving to Tyrion.

"What's wrong Daddy?" Genesis asked climbing up next to them.

"I miss your mommy." Tyrion informed her running a hand through her hair. "I miss Willow."
