6. How Will Arya's Homecoming Go Down?

We got one Stark reunion this week (the second in as many seasons), but not, perhaps, the one people were expecting (unless you paid close attention to the opening credits, anyway).

Arya was on her way home to Winterfell last week, but her arrival is being delayed for now (barring a major surprise, though, it's happening in The Spoils of War).

So what will happen when Arya gets back to Winterfell, to find Jon absent, Sansa ruling the North (and with Littlefinger whispering in her ear), and Bran being, well, whatever Bran is now.

Will Arya's homecoming go any better than Bran's did? She and Sansa never had the best of relationships anyway, and both have suffered a lot since, but will that now bring them closer together or push them apart? And how will she feel about Petyr Baelish skulking around her family home?
