The sad realization that neurodivergent people suffer most due to ego clashes between neurotypical people and interpret it as their own shortcoming. EMOTIONAL DAMAGE INTENSIFIES.

Really wishing there was an Instagram substitute for unskilled photographers called Binstagram. For posting ugly, blurry, unfocused pictures of yourself and your friends without any judgement. XD

What if:GoT was set against a noir backdrop?

Part One

In the bustling metropolis of Westport, seven crime families reign supreme, having cut up the city into territories to better carry out their trades. The "Rock Castle" casino and resorts are helmed by the shrewd "Lannisters",while the timid "Tyrells" run the drug rackets,operating out of their "Golden Rose" flower shops. The brooding and proud "Martells" carry out human and sex trafficking, silent as snakes. But they must all answer to the man on the Iron chair, Robert Baratheon who overthrew the tyrannical rule of the mad "Targaryen family" and unified the families for the first time. While the "Arryns" and the "Tullys" are smart enough to carry out money laundering for the crime boss, his own brother : "Stan Baratheon" broods over lost opportunities and merely looks after the imports and exports. But Robert's most loyal friend is Ned Stark : who heads the "Northern Traders Union" and pays off the law to look the other way. The Starks also deal in arms and provide the firepower to the crime families.

Far away in Europe, in a small town in Italy : the only two surviving children of the now extinct Targaryen crime family : Dany and Viserys live in exile. Viserys plans to use the Fascist military to invade Westport and take back what is his. To that end, he weds Dany off to Mussolini's right hand man and rising Fascist leader: Drogo. In their marriage, Dany is gifted a miniature model of a B-22 bomber. Even though Drogo mistreats and objectifies her initially, soon she finds the courage to make him respect her. She also coerces an POW pilot in Drogo's unit, Jorah to give her lessons in flying.

In Westport, Robert's mentor and advisor, Jon dies mysteriously and Robert decides to name Ned his advisor. This sparks some unrest in the Stark home of "Winter hall", where Ned's wife and children plead with him to not accept it and make the Trader's Union mere puppets of the crime families. But when Ned's curious son Bran chances upon a telegram that Jon was murdered by the Lannisters, he is crippled by the war veteran and eldest Lannister: Jaime.

Meanwhile, Jon Snow : Ned's bastard is sent off to join the 'The Crows', the corrupt division of the city's police. He starts out as a rookie, is bullied and his patience tested, but soon proves his mettle by foiling an assassination attempt on Commissioner Mormont by a member of the mysterious cult: The Whites. Mormont makes him a detective and assigns him on the case of the anarchists calling themselves ' The Wildings'.

Back at King's Landing, Robert's base of operations, Robert dies in an accident after drinking and driving in a race . Ned discovers that the Lannisters are funnelling the funds of the Families towards their own ends and is killed for it. One of his daughters Sansa is imprisoned by Cersei, Robert's wife and the orchestrator of the murders,while Arya escapes. Suspecting foul play, Ned's eldest son: Robb unites the Northern Union's men and so begins the gang wars. This snowballs into an all engulfing conflict, initially only between the Starks and the Lannisters, but eventually encompassing all the crime families. Deceit becomes commonplace, as players come and die in the Game of Thrones. Brothers turn on brothers as Stan decides to stake his claim. Tyrion, the dwarf, the gambler and the youngest Lannister brilliantly defeats Stan. The accountant of the crime families, Littlefinger starts rising slowly as the major players fall away one by one. Theon and the Greyjoy smugglers betray Robb and disrupt the business of the Northern Trader's Union and burn down Winter Hall.

Bran barely escapes the fire and goes lookin for the gypsy magician whose fliers he had seen at the carnival: The Three Eyed Raven.Bran is joined on his quest by the delinquents Meera and Jojen Reed, who help him outrun the Whites pursuing him.

Jon's investigation into the Wildings take him deep undercover into the Anarchists' lair in the meatpacking warehouses. There he meets the tomboy Ygritte and falls in love with her. He learns that the anarchists are mobilizing against the governing bodies who are in league with the Whites to carry out some secret catastrophic plan. Jon joins the Wildings and is told of their plan to assault the Mayor at City Hall to demand answers.

Back in Italy, Dany and Drogo conceive their first child and decide to visit Drogo's hometown of Dothrak. On the way however, Viserys grows tired of waiting for Drogo to keep his end of the bargain. He tries to coerce him by threatening to relay important information to the Allies. This compels Drogo to kill Viserys by having him step on a landmine. However, Viserys had actually got in touch with a few Resistance members in Vienna, who spring an ambush on Drogo's unit while they rest at Dothrak. They are so taken by surprise that they do not even get time to retaliate. Drogo holds them back off, urging Dany to be flown away to safety. But enroute to the airstrip, Drogo catches a bullet to his temple and falls into a coma. While the platoon engage the Resistance in small skirmishes, the pilot Jorah stows Dany away onboard a B-22 bomber despite her protests. As the Resistance fighters advance upon the airstrip, Jorah manages to steer the plane into the skies. As they spread their wings upon the Aegean, the Resistance gain control of the AA gun and fire a volley into the skies. A decisive burst of gunfire knocks out one of the Bomber's fuel tanks and renders Jorah unconsious. The plane plummets into a trail of black smoke as Dany looks on distraught and hopelessly. But few hundreds of meters from the sea, she overcomes all her fears and steers the plan out of the nosedive, as water sprays into her face. She struggles to keep the engine running as she maneuvers the plane into a low altitude crash landing onto a desolate beach. She crawls out of the wreckage, dragging Jorah with her as the plane erupts into a smoldering inferno.

Few days later, the remnants of Drogo's squadron catch up with Dany and a recovering Jorah and draw up a plan to return to Rome.

/ Note : So i found those images on Tumblr and was really fascinated and tried to imagine what GOT would look like as a Noir story. Hope you guys like it. /

As an introvert, i used to think that the scariest thing in the world was making small talk. I was wrong. Try having to make small talk with people who you used to be close with, but whom you can slowly feel drifting away. Try tiptoeing around and maintaining courtesy with the people you used to spill your secrets to. Watch as the monuments pieced together from inside jokes and speculations about the mysterious ways of the universe come undone and shatter into a million jagged pieces of the mundane and the bare minimum. Try and you will learn what impossible truly means.

Life is like a game of chess where you have been checkmated in five moves, but are not allowed to surrender or leave. You have to sit and helplessly watch your pieces fall one by one, as you watch the hands of the clock creep and grate at every turn of the minute (so uncharacteristic).

Whenever Hagrid finally decides to retire as Care of Magical Creatures professor you can bet your last knut that Charlie Weasley flies back to England the following week excitedly waving his resume and recommendation letters from no less than two Scamanders and the Minister of Magic, Hermione Granger.

A Borrowed Point of View.

Cycle of Pain

The thing about tragedies repeating themselves like history, about the symmetry of pain, the cycle of abandonment is that they hurt all the same but you only bleed the first time.

And with each season of betrayal, rather each wave of amnesia, you realize more and more how little you were at fault. Its a small comfort, but it helps you go on.

Just finished A Darker Shade of Magic. I loved so much! I love Kell and Lila! They are the best and I’m looking forward to book 2.

Parting Glass

I have never been able to hold back my emotions at the final scene of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag. After a lifetime of swashbuckling, raiding and plundering in the isles of the Carribean, Edward's sendoff is eerily fitting and evokes a bittersweet feeling of departure, of a whole life left behind. And it is perfectly accentuated by Anne Bonnie's drinking song 'The Parting Glass'.

The song tugs at the heartstrings of anyone who has ever found any semblance of identity, family and purpose and has had to leave it all behind, simply because time and life has demanded it. All he/she can do is then have his fill of the parting glass, take one long last look and wish his remaining comrades the absolute best.

So here's to all the people and things we leave behind and all those who leave us in the dust. May we meet again somewhere at the crossroads of life.

why'd you spell though 'tho'? just add the last three letters!!

ugh

[ruroy9i]

Skywalkers go hand-in-hand with trios right? So our tribute to the saga is also a trilogy. Is that so uncivilized? Let us know if the negotiations were short. Presenting part 3 of Looking back at the Skywalker Saga. Again, @ruroy9i created it, with me.

[ruroy9i]

Star Wars teaches us only originals are good. Still, we risk posting a part 2, so here goes nothing. This is also a joint effort with @ruroy9i. Like the post you must, if one with the force you are.

[ruroy9i]

@ruroy9i and me, bring to you part 1 of Looking back at the Skywalker Saga. It`s a trap to instill in you some of the Star Wars nostalgia we were feeling on May the Fourth, 2020, the first Star Wars day since the Skywalker Saga ended.

May the Force be with you.
