Oh and I guess you didn't see this coming. :D

Summary:
“I keep dreaming of a man,” he says, after a while, tentatively.
“Since when?” she encourages when he doesn’t go on, idly disentangling his hair.
He sighs. “I don’t know, months.” He shrugs. “I don’t only dream of him. I dream of riding horses and…” He licks his lips. “Battles. Sword-fighting. It doesn’t make any sense.” He frowns. “But this man… He’s always there.”
This was written for @aryastark-valarmorghulis' birthday which was eons ago. It was also written because 8 years ago I saw a fanvid by @xbreathofmadness and I have been completely unable not to think about it for almost a decade. Better later than never.
