I've been wondering, Scorched.

[ Arthur has been training since before the sun rose: it's visible in the flush across the bridge of his nose, the way his blond bangs are sticking dark to his temples, the slouch of his usually straight-backed posture. But he needs a break, a distraction from his own mind, from the questions that have been plaguing it without concrete answer. ]

Say that the Door started — temporarily — working the way that all doors should, and we could all trip merrily back to our own worlds.

[ A breath, considering whether he's really going to ask. Despite his slightly laconic tone, he knows how depressing some of the answers he'll get will be. But he still wants to know: ]

Would you stay here in Anatole?

Or would you go home?

I would never go back.

[She'd glue the rest of her family to the floor of their home if she could. Even with Joff still alive here - even with Cersei having seen that terrible memory that her Father hadn't meant for anyone to see, she would still never choose Westeros over Anatole.]

I could make my peace either way. But I don't think I'd stumble through just yet.

I think it might be best if I did.

Return.

Mmm, you know, it's funny. Not too long ago I wouldn't even have hesitated to say that I'd go back home. But now... there is someone here that I don't want to lose. [He sighs, his smile solemn.] Still, it's not a matter of want as much as need. I have to go home.

I dunno, Arthur.

[ I don't want to die. I don't want to leave Remus alone. ]

Would you go home?

An impossible question to answer unless I am truly confronted with the choice.

I would prefer home, only because I am here against my will.

I have to go back.

[ But, perhaps it was not as simple as he made it sound. ]

A decision that becomes harder to make the more of yourself you give to this place.

[Sitting on a rock, skinning a fresh kill. At length he lightly tosses the knife down, its blade piercing the soil.]

I'd go, ultimately. I have a wife waiting for me at home. And a legacy to consider.

Even then, I won't go easily.

Guess there's no third option for neither, huh? [ Because he honestly doesn't know. ]

Has that ever even happened before? Or something close to it? [ The Door working correctly, that is. ]

I would go home. [ Considering her tone and the lack of hesitation before her answer, it's pretty clear that she wouldn't even consider staying. ]

You know, I would say home, but I'd probably just be sent back to Atia instead. [ Which she might actually prefer over this place; at least there she has some really great friends. ] Or some place that's worse than Atia and this place combined.

Why should you care about what others do?

Staying. Absolutely staying.

[ There's no way he's going back there, not unless he's got a deathwish or something like it. ]

I've got everything I could ever want in terms of second chances right here.

...Why, you thinking of heading back?

...would I have to go back to my original home, or could I pick any world that I know about?

It would be a terribly difficult choice. But I would go home. There is someone waiting for me and I want to return to him.

[She smiles sadly.]

I'd hate to think what he might do if my timeline were to progress without me.

Home is where we all belong. It may not be ideal, but neither is this place.

[Tyrion shrugs.]

Here all we can do is regret the past. At least if we return home we have a chance to change the future.

I'd stay here if my friends stayed here. [As much as she misses her mom, at least Elena is safe here. They're all safer here without Klaus.]
