"Pirates and adventurers, we heard at first," said Valena. "Then it was supposed to be the Golden Company. Now it's said to be Jon Connington, the Mad King's Hand, come back from the grave to reclaim his birthright."

Griff and his gang ! I always thought that when you first meet them in ADWD they sort of feel like a the main characters team from an action-adventure cartoon lol, so that's the vibe I went with here

pov: you are tasked with raising the son of the man you fell in love with in your youth. he is a freak, but that might actually be your fault.

“Yet when the jousting began, the day belonged to Rhaegar Targaryen. The crown prince wore the armor he would die in: gleaming black plate with the three-headed dragon of his House wrought in rubies on the breast. A plume of scarlet silk streamed behind him when he rode, and it seemed no lance could touch him. Brandon fell to him…” —A Game of Thrones

tyrion in adwd going from the custody of one humourless brooding older lord who finds him annoying and reminds him of his father (pale eyes) to the custody of another humourless brooding older lord who finds him annoying and reminds him of his father (bald) it never ends for him

GRRM: Here is a character with BELL-related trauma, whose greatest regret is that he didn't burn down an entire town to kill Robert Baratheon. He blames the death of the man he loved on his failure at the Battle of the BELLS, and he vows he will not fail the boy he believes to be his prince's son. He has a terminal illness that is known to eventually drive its victims to madness, and will soon be headed directly to King's Landing. Possibly joining him: a younger and more beautiful potential Queen from Dorne offering an alliance. Again, he is literally triggered by the memory of BELLS.

GRRM: Here is a character who burns the Tower of the Hand with extremely volatile wildfire just because she can't bear the look of it anymore. Her enthusiasm watching the pretty green flames reminds her twin of how the Mad King got aroused by burning people alive. Her obsession with a prophecy around a younger more beautiful Queen drives her to paranoia; she devotes all her attention to destroying a teenage girl while sending anyone she's suspicious/needs rid of to Qyburn to be experimented on and tortured. She pushed her friend down a well when she was 10, and murders her husband's infant bastards. She currently wants revenge on EVERY SINGLE PERSON in King's Landing who watched her Walk of Shame.

Y'all: Obviously Dany is going to burn down King's Landing.

i enjoy how ned, jaime, and jon connington all have a psychosexual obsession with arthur dayne. he is the great equalizer. 15 years after his death and he's got three guys with vastly differing political beliefs and moral codes all like 'i wonder what the virtuous and brave ser arthur dayne would think of me now 🥺'
