She is nosy but not so willing to dive into danger. Sends him instead??? If he gets caught, she suddenly and publicly has no idea who he is. :D
Sansa also considers vulnerability a weakness (really just jealous of people who get away with showing it), so not so great at helping others with theirs. More likely to take advantage of it, the hypocrite.
For them to learn to be...vulnerable? Might have to bribe our lovely mod to run the game another 10 years.
His eyes will absolutely scare the daylights out of her at first, too, so enjoy that. Catch her mid-song which immediately dies on her lips. Then probably feel so bad about obviously appearing scared that she'll try to make up for it.
Okay so: Looking through the teams they're both on faux-team-Macaluso. Perhaps they could go on an excursion together to try and pretend at still working that angle. Perhaps Sansa with her breadbasket and Wrathion doing his speechifying? Maybe she hands out bread while he makes a speech, then they chat after?
Also looking through your wishlist, I could probably lean him the manipulative mentor angle a little. Given playing people is something he's fairly experienced at, he might be quicker than most to spot when she's trying an angle and could call her on it, if you like. Or else, the reverse, she could recognise he's a little too good at his faux diplomat and legal pioneer role or something?
She's being careful not to be too open about her 'political alliance' especially after Alina's post, suggesting open supporters of Macaluso are in danger. However, it's also hard to hide her connections around certain people bc of her red palms and it being made known her connection to them. But to be honest she has no warm feelings for either noble and is shy of getting involved until she knows who's going to win.
If she caught him speechifying though she might be curious enough to get close, and her appearance could draw attention from some NPCs about her being the fire-kissed child, blahblahblah?
Ahhh, I like the calling-out angle. Could work for both of them, por que no los dos? Take turns calling one another out. I expect he'll be better at it, but people do tend to underestimate her.
HM that's fair, she's much more careful about not-getting-assassinated than Wrathion is. Not that he particularly does favour either of the nobles, mind, but he'd rather play to his role so at least one or two people do like him since he's new enough he has no other support framework.
We could do the route of her being drawn in, though! Then maybe if he senses she isn't into it he can make excuses for them both needing to be somewhere and subtly try to disperse the little crowd or something?
Even though it would not be the literal case I keep picturing Sansa doing that cutting gesture at the throat while wildly shaking her head as he speeches. "No no, stop! You fool you'll kill us all!"
But no really, we can wing it! She might also draw attention from some in the crowd bc of her red palms, and be given a favor or two like she is some holy creature, which might also draw his attention.

Hesitantly glances at calendar, how long do we think this game will run, would we have enough time for that......

After which they finally understand each other, but then Wrathion decides to knock her out because she's in the way of his plan.

(They can, they absolutely can).
I've done a rough setup here, so you can have Sansa be noticed or drawn in however you like, if that works?
