Summary
It sucked to acknowledge what he'd done to anyone, obviously, but for some reason it always felt the worst in front of Mel, because she'd never once shown him even a hint of judgment for it. He could list every shitty fucking thing he did, all the drugs he stole, the lies he told, all of it, and Mel would just sit there and nod and tell him Okay, well, thank you for being honest with me.
It wasn't that he didn't want her to do that. It was that he craved it so badly he couldn't stand it, needed her acceptance with an intensity he didn't know how to handle.

Summary
“This is in no way an accusation,” Robby says, stroking his beard with a thumb and a forefinger. He’s steeling himself for discomfort in a way that makes Frank want to turn heel and walk back out of this conversation entirely. “Consider it a fact-finding mission. No more, no less. Even if the answer is affirmative. But—is there anything I need to know about your relationship with Dr. King?”

Summary
Letting people get close to her in general, it's — overwhelming. There are always questions, and hovering, that gap between Mel and the world around her so much wider when she doesn't have the emotional fortitude to do her best to bridge it. She's a pretty positive person, generally. It doesn't usually bother her much, until suddenly it does.
Frank's overwhelming too, she guesses, it's just that she doesn't really mind. He builds the bridge for himself, most of the time. It's easier when she doesn't have to do all the work.
(Five times Mel says she's fine.)

Summary
In the dark and honest part of her that Sansa is no longer afraid of, she had thought that Jon would die, and she was no sadder than she was relieved. In the months that she ruled Winterfell while the great war of men and wights waged around them, she felt herself growing into her power, sinking her roots back deep into the Northern soil. She enjoyed it, ruling. She was good at it. And at night, she had a wide bed and a door that locked and she was never cold. If Jon died in the war, she would miss him like she missed Robb and Rickon and Bran. She wouldn’t miss her husband.
Seeing him now, she notes the absence of the relief and joy that marked her first glimpse of him at Castle Black. Instead, she feels a too-familiar grief: my brother is gone.

"Turns out the pain in my ass has less to do with a chef's knife and more to do with the chef wielding it."
Richie has never gotten over a single thing in his entire life so why would he start now?
