Why would Lord Baelish take an interest in my personal affairs?
You know the man better than I.

[ Now this was an interesting text to receive. ]
Which personal affairs are you speaking of?

Lucy.
He shared it with the Kingslayer. I can't imagine why.

He could be interested because she's another Ambassador or it could be because he knows you from home.
Really, though, Lord Baelish likes to know as much as he can about everyone.

[That at least answers his questions.]
To use against them in future?

[ She won't lie to you, Jon. ]
If needed. Where are you right now? Call me, please?

[He switches to video. He is outside Lucy's farm, sitting on the porch as he scans the sky.]
I was told Baelish uses his mockingbird to spy on others. Have a care what you say outside.

[ Sansa is sitting in her room with fabric draped over her lap. She had been sewing before Jon's text distracted her. ]
I'm always careful, Jon. [ Or she tries to be, at least. ] What did the Kingslayer say to you exactly?

It isn't the sort of talk I should share. The same sort that Ramsay said to me of you.
[Fucking. He means fucking.]
[Fucking. He means fucking.]
What sort of things did Ramsay say of me?
[ She hums, sidetracking the conversation for a moment. ]
[ She hums, sidetracking the conversation for a moment. ]
[Gods, why did he say that? He had forgotten for a moment Sansa didn't know the future and he damn near blurted it out.]
Nothing of consequence.
Nothing of consequence.
[ She makes a light humming noise like she doesn't quite believe him. ]
Well, whatever Jaime Lannister said must have upset you. What did you say in return?
Well, whatever Jaime Lannister said must have upset you. What did you say in return?
[She's right not to believe him and they both know it.]
Nothing. Only that Lucy isn't involved in the disputes of our world.
Responding with anger would give him what he wanted.

<[ Yes, they do. Now. ]
Did he think that she would be involved somehow?
Did he think that she would be involved somehow?
He claimed that she is involved, if only because we cannot escape the disputes of our world.
I don't intend to involve her, but it seems that she will be whether I will it or not. [He is silent a moment.] I will never understand Baelish as well as you do, Sansa. I don't know how to play his game or discern what it is he knows.
I believe he wishes me out of the way and you under his tutelage again, but I worry what he may do to Lucy if she is considered a threat.
[He can't directly ask for help, but his eyes say it all.]

[ He doesn't need to say it because she knows what he is asking without actually saying it. ]
I would need to spend time around him and you can never seem like you accept the idea. But never protest too much either.

I don't accept it. [It wouldn't take much pretending. The thought of Sansa around Baelish made his skin crawl.] I won't stop you.
[He never had. As much as he wanted to protect her, Sansa had a mind of her own and had made it clear in the past. She was a force all her own.]
I trust you.

[ Sansa took his concern in stride, nodding a little when he confirmed that he didn't accept that she would have to spend time with Baelish but at least she wouldn't have to worry too much about him interfering. ]
Thank you, Jon. [ She smiled softly. ]
Thank you, Jon. [ She smiled softly. ]
I will do my best, Jon. I promise.
[ She ends the video call. ]

I wondered if you had but you didn't say anything. I did receive a few offers, though, and Jon showed me the training facility.
I thought it best you and I remain discreet in our communications.
[ He pauses, a breath of amusement. ]
But it is to your fortune that I could teach you both how to utilize your wings and how to take to the skies. My ability is rather similar to yours in a sense. Similar enough that I am confident I can teach you how to properly control it if you wish.
