It should have been Jon. Or someone who mattered. It had gutted too for Theon to hear Robb didn't get properly avenged -- in the end Roose was just another victim of Ramsey's cruelty.
He wants to rush forward -- to place a hand on his once brother's shoulder or even embrace -- but he knows he is not welcome. He is not worthy of that place at Robb's side. Maybe he never had been.
"And when I did -- but Bran -- he grew up. He survived." He is hollower in parts, but he survived as well. "As did Sansa and Arya." Hopefully that will at least offer him some solace.
