The more I read WoT, the more ridiculous GRRM’s lil fanfic gets ashshajnsjdndbd. Rand is a mountain powerscaling wise, and old man really just said “mmnoo 😊 Kingslayer slams”. Him being Jaime Lannister’s greatest dickrider is quite literally the funniest thing about him actually

AND OFF THEY WENT, FROM HERE TO THERE, THE BEAR, THE BEAR, AND THE MAIDEN FAIR.

Jaime being the least like his dad but the one Tywin held up high as his perfect son before joining the kings guard so you think Jaime is what Tywin wanted to be or thought he was or how he wanted to be viewed?

I think Tywin saw Jaime as like. his avatar almost? I think Jaime is in Tywin’s mind the human equivalent of pure gold, just aesthetically he’s perfect in every way, he’s the ideal representation of house Lannister - just so long as you can project whatever you like as his personality goes, which Tywin does. he’s the product that Tywin has strived for, and that was supposed to embody all his dreams and aspirations. and even when Jaime divorces himself from those, I think Tywin struggles to conceptualise Jaime as an autonomous human being. he’s much more aware of Tyrion as such, I think because there are parts of himself he recognises in Tyrion. whereas I think he struggles to comprehend Jaime as a person rather than as a symbol or as a valuable possession that he’s loaned out to the kingsguard who ofc still belongs to him and will ultimately do as he’s told

i need you guys to look at this fuckign post

[melrosing]

Do you think Tywin knew about the twincest in the Books?

Nah Ive always believed that Tywin’s basically oblivious to who his family really are as people bc he refuses to look at them directly, so he never clocked the twincest thing and had never thought about the twins’ relationship for long enough to entertain the possibility when the rumours arose

[melrosing]

It's so funny* that all the Cersei/Jaime stuff is happening within a year or two of a mad incestuous king being violently removed. Jaime barges in on Joffrey's birth, that's weird sure, but if I'm a court member I'm like: remember when the king used to burn people

(a deliberate contrast on GRRM's part)

personally I’d be like ok no one say anything and let’s see how long it takes for Robert to notice

[melrosing]

Tbh if I saw the guy who killed the last king and somehow kept his job protecting the current king acting weirdly close with his twin who is also queen… I think I would just go wow things that are none of my business because the alternative feels like I get killed

ngl I’d have to talk to the girls about it it’s insane. but if they went spilling to the wrong ppl I had nothing to do w it
