Date: Unspecified
Time: Unspecified
Location: Myriad Realms, Card World, Southern Region, Blossom District, Sky Blossom City, TSR Guild Headquarters
If someone who spent most of your life trying to kill you suddenly paused to lecture you about your love life, youâd be curious too, wouldnât you?
Or was that just me?
Granted, I was the crazy one who brought the topic up with that psycho in the first place. Still, the intensity Sansa showed toward it made it feel like she genuinely gave a damn about my love life. That was bafflingâand, unfortunately, it also made me curious about her thought process.
Was she thinking,
âSince I have him here, I might as well lecture him about monogamy and soulmates before I kill him?â
What good would that possibly do for anybody?
Imagine your killer, in the middle of a desperate struggle for your life, suddenly pausing to lecture you about your love life.
"You know what, Dave? None of your current three wives are good enough for you. Just hang in there a little longerâIâm sure the love of your life is out there somewhere. Anyway, where were we? Right. Time to die, Dave."
If Dave died like that, Iâm convinced his ghost would be stuck screaming "What?" for the rest of eternity. An eternity drowning in confusion.
Forget halalâthis would be a far crueler way to slaughter.
I donât know how many of you get what Iâm saying, but I bet Dave gets it.
"Right, Dave?"
"What?"
"Master, Master," Sansa called out, pulling me from my whimisical thoughts, "Uh?"
"Master, are you okay? You suddenly spaced out," she asked, concern evident in her voice.
That was... not something I would have imagined hearing from her before today. Shaking my head, I asked, "So, where were we?"
"You asked why I suddenly showed an interest in your love life," Sansa replied. When I nodded, she continued, "Itâs because of Baylor. He said he would like it if our son were friends with youâand if our daughter were romantically involved with you."
Listening to her, I couldnât help but raise an eyebrow in confusion.
When Sansa had said that Baylor was moving on, I hadnât really believed her. But now, I was not only starting to believe itâI was beginning to wonder whether Baylor had completely lost his mind. There was so much crazy to untangle here that my head hurt.
I mean, what the hell, man? I could understand you accepting her despite her killing your lover and loverâs husband. After all, she had been your beloved crazy wife, who showered you with enough love to flood an ocean.
But why in the world would you hope that your loverâs son would become friends withâor even romantically involved withâthe child you sired with his parentsâ killer?
Ainât that sick?
If that man hadnât completely lost his marbles, what else could possibly explain his thinking?
"Seeing him make plans for a future together with me," Sansa said softly, "I was so happy that I wanted to make that future come true for him. I wanted to bear as many children as he wished. I wanted to raise them with him, grow old with him, and die holding his handâjust like those old romantic novels. So, master, when you asked my advice on your love-life, I felt like it was divine intervention. Things were once again working in my favor."
With every word Sansa spoke, her excitement visibly grew. I began to fear that she might orgasm right there in front of me. I knew bloodkin were granted a disturbingly high degree of freedom, but reaching that completion before me? That was just... sick.
"Are you sure you want to have children with him?" I asked. "Arenât you worried youâll kill them, just like you killed your best friend and her husband for the very same reason? If you can do it once, you can do it twice. Then, you will do it a third timeâand again after that. Thatâs something you should think about before you start playing housewife with Baylor."
I wasnât teasing Sansa. I genuinely believed that if she ever had children with Baylor, it would be a miracle if they survived past their first birthday.
If Sansa ever felt that her love for Baylor was being overlooked, she would destroy everything in her path. That didnât mean she wouldnât love those children. It didnât even mean she would be jealous of them. It also didnât mean she would let them take Baylor from her.
"Yes, Master. I will think about it," Sansa said, nodding politely. But she didnât actually think about it.
Her words said one thing; her mind revealed another. She had already made up her mind to have Baylorâs children. Still, compared to the other bloodkins, she was the most honest of them allâmuch like how Lois was the most expressive, and Dalie was the most loyal and selfless.
"You do understand that Iâll kill you once Iâm done dealing with this mess, right?" I said, making my intentions unmistakably clear. She remained quiet and submissive outwardly, but inwardly, she thought,
âThatâs all the more reason for me to have Baylorâs children as soon as possible.â
Listening in on her inner thoughts, my eyes widened. I felt a sudden, frantic urge to tip a cowâanything to distract me from the crazy in her head.
I was beginning to understand what Baylor must have endured as her captive. It was no longer surprising that he had lost his mind. To survive her, he must have embraced the madness.
I couldnât help but feel sorry for the guy.
"You can take your leave now," I said. "While youâre at it, move Ned and Baylor to Freedom City." I dismissed Sansa, trusting her to make the arrangements as instructed. "Donât worry. You can visit him in Freedom City if he agrees to meet you."
"Thank you, Master," Sansa replied, bowing before she departed.
I retracted my Celestial Rule Domain and turned my attention to Henricks, who had been waiting patiently for me all this time along with the other captains of the Freedom Fighters.
