Theon would always love Robb, even as he feels almost crushed by the weight of his guilt. He does not deserve Robb's forgiveness, nor would he ever think to ask for it. He is grateful that Sansa and Jon had offered theirs, but they had never been as close to him before as he and Robb has been. It was different, for so many reasons.
The life he led had not been much of one. Death was a mercy Ramsay never would have offered him, even when he begged for it. And there had been times he had begged. He may have gotten free, had a chance to redeem himself, but it had come at a cost. It had taken what little strength he had left to pull himself together again, and without Yara's support he might not have done it at all.
"Torture? Punishment?" There is a slight lit to Theon's voice -- not as strong of a jape as he might have once made, but it is still something. He does not understand this place at all. He should have returned to the sea, to the Drowned God, but something clearly went awry.
