Summary
“And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, slouches towards Bethlehem to fucking bitch me out.”
“Hullo, Paddy. You’re looking well.”
Or perhaps he simply looks like the version of him Bill used to know – clean shaven and sun-blasted – and maybe, after all this time, there is a kind of comfort in that.
--
Or: after one of David's hiking trips ends in disaster, Paddy and Bill would be glad if they never crossed paths again, only to run into each other years later.

Summary
Quen felt peculiar up on the dais, flanked by stags and lions and wolves.
The Usurper had once been a formidable man, with blazing eyes and a massive war hammer. Now, he was just a red-faced fat man, a pathetic drunk who ate as gracefully as a half-starved hog.
His Queen seemed to be a perpetually unhappy woman. Cersei Lannister was as beautiful as the singers said, though the woman had all the warmth of a dead fish.
She might have done well in the north, Quen thought, almost pitying.
(Or: The gods in their blind malice give Theon the feeble body of a woman.)
