I understand patchface was cut out because it wouldn’t have fit with the tone of the show but if they were going to do nothing with Stannis’ character anyway why couldn’t we just enjoy seeing him be followed around by the scary clown that witnessed the death of his parents and now babysits his daughter and sings about how they’re all going to drown? all the characters are followed around by a scary clown called the narrative anyway, Stannis’ case just happened to be literal

AGOT AU where Ned and Jaime put aside their differences to work towards the same goal : stop Robert Baratheon from giving Jaime Lannister offices.

"That boy had wanted to be Ser Arthur Dayne, but someplace along the way he had become the Smiling Knight instead" (ASOS, jaime viii)

what do you make of this quote?

this quote is so good because it’s like. jaime baby you’re sooo close. you DID become arthur, and you DID become the smiling knight, because it’s literally the same thing. the smiling knight was “the mountain of jaime’s youth” and the mountain is currently on the kingsguard, knighted by rhaegar— the rhaegar who’s wife he’d rape with the blood of his infant son still on his hands. “knights are for killing” says sandor (the mountain’s non-knight kingsguard brother) and the smiling knight and arthur are both killers, but only one has the white cloak and thus the state sanction to get away with it.

(an aside: it was the white cloak that soiled me, jaime thinks, not the other way around. the white cloak arthur gave him, a teenager on his bloody knees, and cut him on purpose to see him bleed. the marriage and deflowering symbolism is clear, especially with arthur’s “blood is the seal of our devotion”, but jaime’s talk of soiling brings another layer to it, even if he’s not consciously connecting the dots…. I was a daisy fresh girl )

so back to the smiling knight. I’ve pointed this out before and will continue to do so because I fucking love it but the duel between the smiling knight and arthur was not so much a duel, an equal battle between peers, a noble knight slaying a monster, as it was a cat playing with a mouse before it kills it. arthur was doing this for fun, he was toying with him, he was putting on a show, continuously cutting the smiling knight dozens of times but keeping him alive and fighting at his leisure. and then stops to let him get a new sword because he fucked up his old one so badly— which jaime interprets as chivalry but like. jaime that is fucking demented. telling the guy who’s bleeding from a dozen wounds you gave him to go get another sword and keep at it cuz he’s not done with him yet? and then immediately killing him because he gave arthur the opportunity for a dark joke? if the positions were reversed and it was the smiling knight who did all that to someone, or if bronn or one of the brave companions or ramsay did all that to someone, it would come off as cruel and twisted. but arthur’s reputation and jaime’s favorable opinion of him make that completely fly under peoples radar to the point where I’ve barely seen anyone talk about this other than me!

but yeah, basically— jaime, you DID become arthur, and that’s BAD. you are a killer, you are a corrupt figure in a corrupt institution, you hurt people. you’re a knight.

Margaery: Oh, Sansa, I could kiss you right now!

Sansa: [nervous Bi laughter] Uh.....Neat!

[Later]

Sansa, lying face down on her bed: I can’t believe I said ‘neat’, Theon. ‘Neat.’ Nobody says ‘neat’ anymore! It’s the goddamn 21st century!! It’s not neat to say neat, but I said it anyway because I’m such A huge loser!

Theon, playing on his phone: Hey, it’s okay Sansa. Don’t you remember what I did when Robb confessed?

Sansa, rolling over to her stomach: Didn’t you like, thank him?

Theon, putting the phone down and looking at the ceiling : I fucking thanked him
