This one’s my favorite. Her wanting to hold Theon’s patch of skin as if it were a lover’s handkerchief.

I like when Catelyn starts killing people in her brain

[cuartocreciente-8]

To know how it ends

And still begin to sign it again

As if it might turn out this time

there is love in this story. even in its most brutal end. there is love in the story. how? where? here: here in me telling it to you, in spite of everything. because of everything.

Incredible things happening on tumblr

our spiritually elevated rejection of canon vs their intellectually dishonest refusal to engage with the text

the thing is Cersei could have no scoped that interrogation if she just decided to be catty about it. “Oh so it’s suspicious that all three of my kids are blond while Robert’s bastards look like him? Meanwhile I’ve been to your house and FOUR of your kids are improbably ginger and your bastard looks like you but did I barge into your kitchen and accuse your wife of fucking her brother 🤨?” like Ned would have had to back off immediately

Odin impersonating Týr: oh nooo. Don't attack me. I'm against violence now 🥺

Real Týr: So, for this therapy session, let's beat each other up.

🎶 And the coldest night

Of the coldest year

Comes right before the (dream of) spring 🎶

I can’t speculate on whether the winds of winter will ever come out because if I turn around and look for it before I walk out of the underworld she will disappear forever

a court of thorns and roses. ballad of songbirds and snakes. bowl of macaroni and cheese

They should make a game like Disco Elysium but it’s about a young knight trying to solve the disappearance of her lady’s daughter, a maid of three and ten with auburn hair, in the Riverlands

[cuartocreciente-8]

They should make a game like Disco Elysium about an old knight looking for his lost honor in the Riverlands

disco elysium like game where you're jaime in the riverlands

BRIENNE, MAID OF TARTH- Ser Jaime?

EMPATHY [challenging: success]- She trusts you. Enough to call you Jaime. When was the last time someone called you by your name?

ESPRIT DES CHEVALIERS [medium: success]- SER Jaime. Can you be more than the Kingslayer?

BRIENNE, THE MAID OF TARTH: Ser?

EMPATHY [trivial: failure]- Even in soiled pink satin and torn lace, she looks more like a man in a gown than a proper woman.

ELECTROCHEMISTRY [trivial: success]- WHAT DOES THAT MATTER?? YOU WANTED HER, YOU WENT AND GOT HER, BABY!!!! YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!

DRAMA [legendary:failure]- Are you into that sort of thing, sire? What would your sister think?

BRIENNE, THE MAID OF TARTH: I am grateful, but…

EMPATHY [formidable: success]- She hesitates. She is not used to kindness.

VOLITION [formidable: failure]- The world isn’t kind. She ought not get used to kindness.

DAMAGED MORALE -1

BRIENNE, THE MAID OF TARTH: You were well away. Why come back?

SHIVERS [godly: success] EVERYTHING COMES BACK TO HARRENHAL. YOU ARE NO DIFFERENT.

EMPATHY: [medium: success]- How could you not?

ESPRIT DES CHEVALIERS [legendary: success]- You saw her, standing against the darkness with a flaming sword, and called her a fellow knight.

ELECTROCHEMISTRY [trivial: failure]- SHE WAS NAKED IN THE DREAM!

COMPOSURE: [trivial: failure]- Which could mean nothing. Don’t worry about it.

DRAMA: [medium: success]- Sire, you cannot let her know you care about her. At all. Lord Tywin’s son and heir does not jump into bear pits out of sentimentality.

1. Ransom money is always a worthwhile hustle.

2. [Esprit Des Chevaliers- Medium 8] Knights rescue maidens.

3. For the glory of House Lannister, of course.

4. I am in love with you because you are my narrative foil and we are going to restore knighthood to glory with our matching oathkeeper swords.

5. [Drama- Trivial 3]- Come up with the perfect insult to remind her that the world is as unkind as you are and belief otherwise is simply naive.

HIGH- 83%

+1 Internalized Lannister Ideology.

+1 It’s what she expects from you.

-1 Told her about Aerys.

-1 Bi-Sexual Underground.

-1 You dreamed of her.

⚀⚀

CHECK FAILURE

YOU- A dozen quips come to mind, each crueler than the last, but nothing comes out.

COMPOSURE [godlike: failure] You can only shrug at the other knight.

YOU- I dreamed of you.

[cuartocreciente-8]

if you could change one thing about s1 of hotd what would it be??

Getting rid of the prophecy subplot so fast it’s unreal. Just make the want for the crown about Viserys’ love and trust and also gender issues like it should have been all along.

my great bastard oc is larra bracken, daughter to bethany bracken (named for 4egon's mom bc barba thought she knew aegon well enough that he missed his mom and she talked her sister into naming her girl to please him and stand out in his eyes). larra has black hair and black eyes like her mom but bc of what happened with bethany and terrence toyne, there's rumors that she's not actually aegon's daughter. after her mom's execution, she's sent back to the brackens and barba raises her bc she feels guilty about what happened to her sister. she's raised together w. aegor and follows him around like a duckling for most of her life. she's bought to king's landing with aegor and grows up w. the great bastards. she despises her mom for giving up what she thinks is a pretty cushy life as aegon's mistress and leaving her w. her parentage questioned even as a bastard. the fact that barba and the brackens are aegon apologists means that these feelings are exacerbated and she longs for 4egon to claim her. aegor tries to get her to hang out w. shiera so he can get a bonus w. her but shiera is too slay for larra to get 😔. thinks she's a weirdo witch. has a gigantic cringy crush on daemon b, partly bc he's the only person in their sibling circle not involved in the shiera-brynden-aegor circle, and partly bc he is aegon's fav so she thinks getting w. him would make her dad like and acknowledge her. low-key like cersei's feelings towards rhaegar is her and daemon's vibe. keeps trying to hang out w. him and win him over and daemon is too busy crushing on daenerys 1 and she's very forgettable to him. aegor's like what do you think about my little cousin and daemon's like you have a cousin??? since when 🧐. seduces daemon when he's drunk and moping at maron martell and dany 1's wedding. gets pregnant. daemon b is very honorable and offers to marry her. girlie has all her teenage dreams come true for a glorious second and then 4egon says get fucked. need daemon to marry a tyroshi noble so i can have a way to invade dorne. names her baby aemon out of pure spite. remains unmarried when the blackfyre rebellion starts bc aegor keeps telling her to wait it out for rohanne of tyrosh to die in childbirth or something and then she can marry daemon (aegor is a huge fan of unrealistic expectations as seen from his own love life and his 50000 rebellions). daemon dies in redgrass field before rohanne and all her hopes die w. him. causes a rebellion inside the blackfyre rebellion after his death bc aegor is straight up like fuck daemon ii (🏳️‍🌈❌), let's get my practically sister's kid w. daemon to be his heir instead. he's more targ anyway and i trained him soooo. she dies after her son dies bc of that blackfyre rebellion and i see bloodraven executing her (timeline uncertain here. maybe aenys i reign? plus it would give bittersteel another reason to hate bloodraven: he killed his 2 fav siblings). i kind of think of her as a cautionary tale bc she spent most of her life so determined not to be her mom, to wait out in a perilous relationship (like she believed her mom should have done w. 4egon) instead of seizing love. but at the end of the day, bethany bracken died choosing to experience love and larra never gets that. she dies without hope of experiencing that bc she placed all her hopes on daemon instead of trying to find a person she could've loved and unlike her mom she could've survived if she'd chosen love. i see her as one of the only people aegor is nice to other than shiera and daemon in their teens and they have a pretty sweet sibling relationship. they also bond over their cringefail crushes. he's pretty devastated over her and her kid's death and there's nothing left for him other than killing bloodraven bc everyone he loved is gone bc of bloodraven.

What a LIFE Larra lived I love her canon accurate “brackens can’t accomplish anything and have sprawling and miserable lives” lore. Bloodraven ruining everything for fun is such a constant.

I literally did this when I got to the part of the riddle

Not Littlefinger! No!

Is that a sarcastic “no!”? ;)  (I really can’t tell. I mean, I’d use it sarcastically.)

But in case you’re not being sarcastic and are genuinely disbelieving, there actually is a great amount of evidence for the idea that Littlefinger was the one who convinced Joffrey to have Ned executed (breaking the whole arrangement of the Small Council to have him publicly confess treason and then take the black). And by evidence, I include means, motive, and opportunity.

@medeatriumph OP if you have more to share about Aemon Blackfyre I would love to read. For scientific purposes. Like was he just Larra: The Sequel in regards to mommy and daddy issues or he wasn’t as bad because he did have clear parentage. Did Larra resent him for it 👀
