[ winn was going to contact robb. he was! but then he had to think about what he was gonna say. and then they were attacked. and then he was running around from ship to ship trying to do his best to fix damages. and now...now there's still work to do but it's not as urgent anymore. and he asked kitty to make sure unfortunate timing won't contribute to this going wrong again if that's the way it'll go. and he's out of excuses.

so he settles in the tourist's engine room (aka, his new bedroom) and makes the call. he looks tired but otherwise unharmed, and his tone is gentle, apologetic, from the first word. ]


Hi, uh, I was wondering if I could have a few moments of your time. If now's no good, call me back. I owe you an apology. [ he's still not okay with the way robb treated kitty. he never will be. but he's also not okay with the way he treated robb, and he's learned of extenuating circumstances and correct apologies that were made and he just feels like the biggest jerk. ]

[ great. wonderful. now what? why does he never learn to prepare a script? for such a smart man he really is an idiot sometimes.

he takes a breath, and just speaks from the heart. it carried him through all his fleet conflicts so far, though none of them have gone as far as this one. ]


I lashed out at you, and that was wrong of me. The critical point that I was missing, that I was misunderstanding, was that you've apologized to Kitty which is all that matters in that situation. Apologizing to me was a courtesy, and I appreciate it. Mostly though, I'm really sorry that our conflict complicated your friendship with Kitty, the last thing I want is to come between her and her friends, I know what a gift it is to have her in my life and I have no right or desire to get in the way of her spending time with anyone she chooses. I'm sorry you felt unwelcomed at my party, I want you to know that even without knowing what I do now I wouldn't have kicked you out or made a scene, you don't have to worry about that with me, I never thought what happened meant you deserve to be excluded, or that you're a bad person, I just blew up, and I'm sorry. I don't normally do that.

[ winn listens quietly, still looking apologetic as he's told not to apologize because he does feel bad robb had to leave - he doesn't want to exclude anyone who doesn't really deserve it, anyone who hasn't really done evil. robb did wrong, for certain - yes, he understands his circumstances now and he did apologize but no circumstances give anyone the write to treat another person poorly - but he definitely did not do evil. and it was never his intention to drag this further than just between them, but robb had no way of knowing that because winn was speaking from anger, not thought, and that's his wrong doing.

there's a flash of concern at put them to the sword - it's so quick it could easily be missed but yikes, he makes a mental note to try to keep an amicable relationship with this guy from now on and really, let kara talk to him next time if there's a next time because the last thing he needs is to get in a violent altrecation over a misunderstanding. he's not a violent man! (not that he would ever try to touch his wife's...anything. unless she needed a hand, in which case he'll touch her hand, but that's it. he also has no idea who his wife is, he looks so young to have one...god he hates westeros and the way it treats women and marriage). contrition returns to his face at the mention of the trouble it caused him - yes he did wrong, but again, winn wasn't exactly clean here, either, and he's lived his life trying to avoid making problems for anyone.

he nods and return a small smile of his own at the end. ]


I'd like that. Next time you're on the Tourist, I'll take you straight to Jim.

[ winn really dislikes westeros. he cares for its people, but the culture is pretty much one of the worst he can imagine. ]

This is a strictly no folly zone, so I gotta agree with you there. [ his smile turns warmer. he's much better at getting along with people. ] If you wanna come by and talk to me, I'll be happy to do that too.

[ laughter, five points! there's a hint of pride on winn's face for making him laugh. he tips his head at him, as if to say go ahead, my gift to you.

winn is doing everything in his power to make sure kitty never has to and once he has that road back to national city set up - he'll extend it to anyone who can't go back to their own home. his earth is already kind of a refuge anyway, for aliens. ]


I will, don't think I've ever been to your neck of the fleet before, I'm overdue.

[ if only to seal the end of the awkwardness. they don't have to be best friends (and really that position has been filled for winn three years ago, back home) but he does really want them to get along. ]
