Your security blanket. Your teddy bear. Your thing you can't not have with you or you get sad. Seriously. I've never seen you without it, even in the castle.
[All the best swords have names Stiles!! What kind of chump sword do you think Jon has?]
You're not really having trouble sleeping, are you? [Jon sleeps like the actual dead when he has time for it, the idea of not being able to for months on end is awful.]
Oh, doesn't matter. That's a yes, then. [Damnit Stiles!] Surely you can find some pillow that would suit. Might be the fairies could make one to your liking if you'd stop slapping them about for a bit.
No, because it's a hand-and-a-half sword and the blade of House Mormont: they've a bear for their sigil. [That makes sense, right? That's not a stupid explanation, right? Bears... claws... longer than standard sword... Right.]
[Start your own modeling agency and rope in all your friends Stiles, be an entrepreneur!]
Aye, I suppose I could understand that. Most nights, I still miss Winterfell. [Other nights he's just too wiped to think about it before he passes out.]
It's- [He hesitates, fingers carding through the direwolf's fur as a distraction while she finishes licking up the last of the milk from the bottom of the bowl.] Aye, it's the snow, and the furs, and the walls, warmed by the hotsprings that Winterfell was built on - and my brothers, whose beds I'd share when it got too cold. When I left, it was the last I saw them.
You shared your beds with your brothers, huh? Is that a, uh, Westerosi thing? Some weird... you know, I don't need to know that. What happens in Winterfell stays in Winterfell.
[Jon. Now he thought you were gay, Jon. Gay and boning your bros.]
[Does he look like a Targaryen to you, Stiles?? ...Don't answer that.]
It wasn't weird, it was for warmth! [No pajamas warmth! You know what, let me just stop right there.] What's wrong with you? They were my bloody brothers.
Hey, it's not like incest hasn't happened in royal families or anything. And it's not really a thing with, ah, brothers. I don't know. I don't know the customs where you come from. Jesus. Maybe you just have all night naked parties.

[He has no idea what that is, but it just sounds insulting.]
no subject
Jon has a binky.
no subject
Last time I went to a feast I near got killed. I'm not looking to be anywhere without it.
no subject
Fair enough. But it's still your binky. Hey, no judging. I bring my staff everywhere.
[He also called his staff Lola, so...]
no subject
It's practical! [You say no judging but Jon can hear you judging.] Aye, I've not heard you call that your binky.
no subject
Because it's not. It's Lola. My binky's my pillow, which I don't have here. I haven't slept well without it.
[Woe is him, Jon. Feel so bad for him now. He has no pillow.]
no subject

[He shrugged, moving to go sit down now that the pup had finished the milk and looked to be healed up nicely.]
Better things to wish for. I've had a lot going on and a good night's sleep just hasn't really been my number one priority.

no subject
[He was chuckling as he sat down, legs stretching out as he got comfortable.]
Doesn't matter.
[He was pretty much used to crappy sleep by now.]
no subject
Oh, doesn't matter. That's a yes, then. [Damnit Stiles!] Surely you can find some pillow that would suit. Might be the fairies could make one to your liking if you'd stop slapping them about for a bit.
no subject
Longclaw. Right. Because you stab people with it. Got it.
Hey, I don't slap fairies. I shoo the perverts. And it's not the same. It has to be my pillow.
no subject
No, because it's a hand-and-a-half sword and the blade of House Mormont: they've a bear for their sigil. [That makes sense, right? That's not a stupid explanation, right? Bears... claws... longer than standard sword... Right.]
Why's that, exactly? What's your pillow like?
no subject
[Jon, your world was so weird and your names were weird. That's all there was to it. Clearly you needed to come home with him.]
It's mine.
[And that was all the explanation needed. It was his and it was just firm enough and just soft enough and just cool enough.]
no subject
Oh, you're being difficult.
no subject
Nuh uh. There's just... things. Things certain people need to achieve things. I need my pillow.
no subject
You've no interest in achieving anything?
no subject
It's not like I don't sleep, Jon. God. I'm just not sleeping as well as I would be if I were home.
no subject
Aye, I suppose I could understand that. Most nights, I still miss Winterfell. [Other nights he's just too wiped to think about it before he passes out.]
no subject
That's the big castle thing, right? Is it just the snow or... other stuff?

That's vile. And they're not parties.
