Hello, you've reached--[sounds of fumbling and muttering before Robb's voice comes in:] Robb Stark--leave a message after the beep.

[Arthur's loss is a blow, and a heavy one at that. It's also a reminder to Robb that not everyone here stays, a reminder that he could've done without, considering the week he's had.]

Aye, as was I. [Was. It's one word, and yet it's surprisingly difficult to type out.] I would be glad to meet anyone Arthur called friend. Would that this was under better circumstances than this.

[ despite how much kate had built herself up to be used to this sort of thing, losing people from home and friends from here, there are some people you just assume will stick around. some people you never, really, thought would disappear.

sam and cas had been two, and they both had left. and now arthur. she tries not to think too much about it, because searching for a reason just kept her up at night. ]

You and me both. But it seems like Arthur had other plans- he left the Guard to the two of us.

[He stares at the screen for a moment, almost disbelieving. With everything that's happened, with losing his hand and telling his family of the Red Wedding and now Arthur leaving, he isn't sure he's in the best of states to lead the Guard.

But. Arthur is trusting him with this. And Robb can't very well turn it down, not when his friend wished for him to take it.]

My lady, I would be glad to help with the Guard. I've not heard anything of the Guard in some time, and with the recent events in the city, mayhaps we'll need it.

[ if kate had known anything about what robb was going through, she probably wouldn't have even brought this up. but she doesn't even have a clue, and just the idea of trying to take something else on as big is the guard by herself is a little daunting.

with someone else? that she can do. or thinks she can do. it remains to be see if she'll be able to handle keeping this all together. ]

I spoke a lot with Arthur when he first set it up, but I didn't do much with it after that point. But if he thinks we're the people to keep it going, I figured we might as well try.

Are you busy in the next day or so? Merlin mentioned a possible meeting to hash things out.

I've other matters to attend to on the morrow, but I'll be able to meet with you, say, two or three days from now. [Two days, to mourn, to adjust, to pull himself together.] Will you be busy then?

My schedule has a tendency to depend heavily on what kind of chaos the city gets itself into. But let's plan on two days from now and we can reschedule later if that doesn't work.

It works well enough for me. [It's enough time, at least to mourn and recover from his losses.] Let us hope the city manages to stay peaceful just for long enough that we can meet up.

Fingers crossed.

I'll talk with you then.
