" What do you think of her?" davos pondered

"Who?" Jon countered.

"I believe you know of whom I speak." Davos sighed.

"I dont know what I think of her. Selma doesnt like her."

"And you and your sister share a brain?" Davos mused. Jon shrugged. It was easier if he agreed with Selma because she was right. Daenerys was dangerous and problematic. Speaking of which, Selma smiled rushing to Jon's side.

"I saw the Night King, Davos. I looked into his eyes. How many men do we have in the north to fight him? 10,000? Less?" Jon asked

" Fewer."

"Fewer." Selma groaned. "We can do without right? Less is more and all that."

"I dont think so." Jon countered. "Not for this."

"Speaking of... Missandei of Naarth." Davos noted. She turned to them. Jon and Selma turned as well.

"Ser Davos, Lord Snow, Lady Stark."

" King Snow, isn't it? No? That doesn't sound right. King Jon?" Davos offered

'It doesn't matter." Jon assured.

"I like King Jon." Selma agreed leaning into him.

" Forgive me, but may I ask a question?" Missandei asked softly.

"Of course." Jon agreed.

"Your name is Jon Snow, but your father's name was Ned Stark?"

"I'm a bastard. My mother and father weren't married." Jon agreed

" Is the custom different in Naarth?" Davos pondered

" We don't have marriage in Naarth so the concept of a bastard doesn't exist." She agreed

" The sounds liberating." Davos realized.

"How do people show they want to be with someone forever if not through marriage?" Selma countered.

"Most people dont stay together forever." Missandei countered.

"Well that seems... not helpful." selma was hoping for another type of union that Jon would agree, even though they were half siblings they could still marry.

"Why did you leave your homeland?" Jon asked

" I was stolen away by slavers."

"I'm sorry." Jon whispered

" If I may, how did a slave girl come to advise Daenerys Targaryen?" davos added

" She bought me from my master and set me free."

"That was good of her. Of course you're serving her now, aren't you?" Davos added

" I serve my queen because I want to serve my queen. Because I believe in her." Missandei corrected

"And if you wanted to sail home to Naarth tomorrow --" Jon countered giving her room to think but she answered right away.

" Then she would give me a ship and wish me good fortune."

" You believe that?" Jon countered in disbelief and Selma was right beside him, rulers didnt just give up their property. Joffrey didnt.

" I know it. All of us who came with her from Essos, we believe in her. She's not our queen because she's the daughter of some king we never knew. She's the queen we chose."

"You'll forgive me if I switch sides." Davos told Jon.

" Is that a Greyjoy ship?" Jon countered seeing the sigil on the sails near the shores. Selma glanced at the shores.
