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

[Give him a moment, he's considering. On one hand, dragons are dangerous, that much everyone knows from history. On the other hand, direwolves are dangerous as well, and he walks around with one trailing behind him all the time. Besides. He's never going to get this opportunity again.]

If you'll have me. Do you keep her in your room? [Because that's where he keeps Grey Wind, for the lack of kennels.]

Sort of. She likes to accompany me when I'm around the city sometimes.

[Merlin's thinking along the same lines as Robb, because he says while smiling: ]

You could bring your wolf, too. Come to think of it, we haven't really met up just for the sake of it, have we? It's always been for some project, like the Guard.

Grey Wind does the same thing often enough, he'll come along with me. [And he'll behave too.]

No, we haven't. [He's beginning to see the bright side to that brief second childhood, and grins a little at Merlin.] Mayhaps we should remedy that soon. Where do you want to meet?

The park? There's plenty of space for Aithusa and Grey Wind to roam, and it's more peaceful than other parts of the city.

[More like home, essentially. The recent curse had brought a bout of homesickness that Merlin hadn't anticipated.]

[There's a bitter ache that comes with the homesickness, for Robb. He doesn't have a home to go back to--he's dead, and Winterfell is a burned and blackened shell. He hides that ache well enough, though, and gives a nod in reply.]

I'll meet you there, then. When should I expect to see you?

[Merlin turns to look at the clock off-screen.]

How about in half an hour? I'm just about done here at the hospital.
