Claire wouldn't mind. She's learned plenty of details about Jon's life that perhaps shouldn't be shared, but at this point, they're family. It's what has her giving his next question some more consideration than what might actually be necessary. Maybe it's good for him to know her family wasn't picturesque.

"He married the woman he loves, and she loves him, so I think so. She's actually my husband's step-daughter," she admits with a little huff of a laugh. Oh, she can see the humor in it now, but Claire was hardly the happiest woman to find out Jamie not only remarried, but now was step-father to two girls.

It wasn't so much the marrying, but who he married. Laoghaire nearly had her burned at the stake for being a witch. To think of that still makes Claire's blood boil, but Marsali was (thankfully) very different from her mother.

Jon's comment makes her smile, thoughts of Laoghaire brushed away as she looks over at him.

"I always wanted children. I thought for a very long time that I was unable." The problem wasn't with her, as she found out--but while Faith showed her she could conceive, her pregnancies were never easy. Even Brianna's would could have taken her life had she stayed in the 18th century. "We would joke about having a dozen of them. I think I would have liked that, if it were possible. Things didn't come to pass the way we hoped, but I've managed all right with what I've found."

Sansa and Jon being two of them.
