The instrumental version of Ramin Djawadi's The Rains of Castamere from Game of Thrones. Anything you do while listening to this song becomes at least seven times as awesome.

FINGERTIPS ABANDON THE HILT OF A BLADE , forgetting it with ease as form does emerge . slowly do they smile , eyes bright with sheer childish thrill . they may laugh and name this a meeting bound by fate , the trickster is known for being a snake , after all . ❝ my . . . what a glorious crown of serpents you do wear . ❞
THE TRICKSTER’S WORDS soothe a nest of mad vipers. ( but the BEAST herself is far less charmed. ) for though their blade is not drawn, it remains READY TO SEVER, should its’ master so choose. ❛ FLATTERY . . . will get you nowhere. ❜ the gorgon hisses coldly as her BODY EMERGES. the spear - like tip of her tail driving into the HEART of a stone statue. one of dozens. all that remains of trespassers past.
❛ WHY DO YOU COME HERE??? with . . . a weapon . . . & a sssilver tongue??? I WILL NOT BE BESTED BY YOU. ❜

“ the face of elrond was ageless, neither old nor young, though in it was written the memory of many things both glad and sorrowful. his hair was dark as the shadows of twilight, and upon it was set a circlet of silver; his eyes were grey as a clear evening, and in them was a light like the light of stars. venerable he seemed as a king crowned with many winters, and yet hale as a tried warrior in the fulness of his strength. he was the lord of rivendell and mighty among both elves and men. ” independent and mutually exclusive elrond, lord of rivendell from tolkien’s works. mun & muse 21+. written by : erin

‘ why should you? ’ an inquiry, a woman of myth and legend. cursed for a deed that was not her undoing. ‘ many should fear me, yet they do not. but i have heard of your tales, even as a boy. cursed by athena, when the curse should have been directed at someone else. ’
‘ you did not deserve your curse, just as i did not deserve mine. we are one in the same, fair medusa. ’
❛ FAIR ———— MEDUSA. ❜ his words bring with them memories of a time long past. when she was beautiful & warm as the MORNING SUN. when her body bore no scales & long, dark hair DRIPPED down milky skin. only the mad, raving whispers of her snakes rouses her from this trance. ❛ so SSSWEET. but i am not fair. not anymore. ❜ despite this, cracked lips bear a smile. EYES TURN TO THE FLOOR & her body slithers towards him.
❛ AH. we are the same. you are some manner of ———— BEAST. like me. a subtle one. but . . . a beast all the same. with the gift to walk among mortal men. LOVELY! lovely creature. ❜ she pauses. ❛ do you find COMFORT in the company of MONSTERS??? ❜
