If they had a kid meme

For Myrielle and Rhagerys. (Would love to see your thoughts of their child)

Ohh. This has actually been on my mind for a bit so I got so excited for your ask!

Name: Igreyne Targaryen. Names can be a sentimental thing for Myrielle, and I assume Rhagerys too. And while Myrielle couldn’t name her daughter after her mother, their daughter was named after Rhage’s. 

Gender: Female. After having a son, it only felt right to give them a daughter. 

General Appearance: Igreyne is on the taller side (an inch taller than her mother) at 5’6”. All limbs and no meat. She was the type of child who was extremely fussy with food and wouldn't do anything. Fair skin that is dotted with golden freckles, a gift from her mother. Her hair isn’t the typical Targaryen silver, instead a soft and honeyed blonde like her namesake. Large green eyes, although not as pale as Myrielle. Her features are more like her father’s. She has his stronger jaw and nose, and overall bone structure. 

Personality: Igreyne is both aloof and charming. On the surface, she is what is expected of a Princess.  She speaks with a soft voice, and her every movement is deliberate and measured. She’s accustomed to being in the spotlight, and while she enjoys it, she understands (especially with Myrielle as a mother) on how to act in court. She has a taste for silks, jewels and wine. Very gluttonous. She is a lover of all beautiful things that don’t require her to get her hands dirty. She often seems detached from daily struggles around her, but she isn’t naive. She knows what is happening all the time, she just.. doesn’t care really. Igreyne isn’t one to concern herself with the troubles of others unless it directly affects her. Her world is very centered around her and that usually makes her indifferent to the strife of others. She wouldn't open,y ridicule someone, but if someone was telling her their problems, she would just sit there silently and awkwardly. This stems from the fact that she has been told she’s special (especially as the only daughter of her parents — so far). She is used to people adoring her, not vice versa. 

Special Talents: Nothing really. She just sits there and looks pretty. As a young lady, she is expected to know how to paint, hawk or play a musical instrument, and while Igreyne is pretty good at them, there is not specialized skill in there. The closest thing is her harp skills, but that’s because Myrielle has been teaching her how to play the harp since she was 6-7. (I love my girlfailure.) But she carries herself with confidence and elegance while doing it. In a way, her actual talent is in her appearance (the way she can make people feel seen, or desired)

Who they like better: I could see her having a special bond with Rhagerys. He is the one who probably indulges her more. That’s his mini-me and I just really see him being a girl-dad, always pampering her and protecting her from the real world.Myrielle also indulges her children, but there is this gap between them that neither of them know how to fill up. Myrielle has always had a soft spot with her daughters, it’s more that she doesn’t fully understand Igreyne. (Also Myrielle wouldn’t let her kiss the handsome stable boy 😔).

Who they take more after: She is Rhage’s mini-me! Not only features-wise, her personality is more like him. There is a lot of Myrielle in there too, it’s just that there is this lack of empathy in Igreyne that Myrielle has. (Igreyne and Rhagerys are more like golden retrievers while Myrielle is a feral tiny cat). 

Personal Headcanons: When Igreyne was born, a silver egg (as a gift from Helaena whose dragon had recently laid some eggs) was placed in her cradle and out came a lilac she-dragon that she named Moonsong after her father’s dragon. Moonsong is everything to her. She ties ribbons and reads Valyrian stories to her. Igreyne has never taken care of anything, but with Moonsong, she gets to indulge her.

OC ASK GAME

Thank you for the tag @rottengrowls! I had to do my main bbg, Myrielle Vallici (have a little Dance Myrielle)

1. What is something that your OC would never purchase for themselves, but would be (secretly?) delighted to receive as a gift?

Myrielle often indulges herself with little things like trinkets, books, jewelry and dresses. This all once delighted her (and according to 10 year old Myrielle, it is the best gift ever!), but as she grew older, she became fond of flowers. To her, flowers are something that one should give to someone they love, so whenever she receives flowers be it from Aegon or another, she gets incredibly happy. (Another gift she received once was a white tiger from her brother and that is by far one of her most precious gifts).

2. Is your OC ticklish? Has anyone ever dared to find out?

No. A few people (a few would be Alaric, Rodric, Aegon and Aelys), but everytime she would freeze up instead. The entire thought, especially as an adult, of someone touching her in such a manner even if it is to make her laugh often makes her uncomfortable since she does not like it.

3. How easy does your OC find it to apologize?

It’s a second nature to her. Myrielle does not like being at odds with others and while she is typically a stubborn person when holding her own opinion, she gives in easily when she needs to apologize, even if she is fully aware that it is not her fault.

4. When did your OC first see a dead body? If they have not seen one yet, how might they react to doing so?

Although not fully fleshed out on this section, Myrielle meets a dying man at 6 when her ‘Uncle’ who is a Septon took her to the dungeons to hear the last confession of a soon to be executed man. As a child, she was confused by the whole notion of killing someone for doing something wrong. If I follow my current plans, she properly sees a dead body (minus Laena who she only saw the casket of) was during her first marriage where she resides in the Iron Islands. She saw dead bodies, wheter on the island or floating near, and the first time she saw one, she felt as if she was going to throw up. A dead rotting body does a lot to a 12 year old kid.,

5. Does your OC have any recurring dreams? Have they ever told anyone else about them?

Many. Sometimes someone faceless is suffocating her (she pretends to not know who it is, but she does). Sometimes she is drowning, other times someone is dead. Other times it’s just blood. Lots and lots of blood. Myrielle isn’t vocal about her problems, fearing to be seen as a burden so she holds it to herself and prays for protection in her sleep. Later, she would tell Helaena some part and once marrying Aegon, she finds herself adored and safe so she tells him anythung that happens.

6. Is your OC stingy with their money (or other resources)? Or are they something of a spendthrift?

As mentioned previously, Myrielle adores indulging in herself. She wants books, to feel pretty wit dresses and jewelry. And while she does try to make herself happy with those little things, she tries to keep track and put limits on amounts spent. This is born of a mix of guilt of having so much while others have so little and the Seven do not like those who spend too much money and act vain.

7. Does your OC have a sweet tooth? Or do they prefer to avoid sweets and sugary treats?

Yes! Desserts are one of the many things she love’s, especially honey nut tarts. At a younger age she would fill her plate with such confectioneries, but after gaining some weight because of her pregnancies, Myrielle would avoid sugar as much as possible.

8. Is your OC easily provoked by insults or mockery?

Myrielle does not get provoked usually. If she feels hurt and angry, it is all about putting it deep inside and trying to ignore those feelings (please give her theraphy). And while not easy angered, it does not mean she is a stranger to that feeling. Like any Vallici, anger boils in her blood constantly (she is simply better at holding it in) and she loses almost all wit when upset.

9. Where is somewhere your OC has visited that they never want to visit again?

The Iron Islands. Since her marriage to Vickon Greyjoy until his death, her life was heavily filled with sorrows wirh fleeting moments of happiness (with Rodric that would soon be followed by guilt). It is a place where her innocence was taken away, where she was betrayed for the first, where she first saw her dead body, where she first had a child at ten and three and where she killed her first man.

10. Is your OC ever somewhat flirtatious?

She slightly comes off as flirtatious occasionally because she is naturally a charming person who knows how to use her words to make people feel certain ways about her. Couple that with her habit of calling others by “love” or “darling” and you get a flustered person who believes Myrielle to be flirtatious. But she is pretty bad at flirting, it is awfully painful to watch so she just plays with your heart for a bit and look at you with doe eyes and hope you get the hint.

I mean this in the nicest way possible but everything I have ever learned about GOT and GRRMs writing has sounded awful to me. What makes it so compelling to everyone?

So it is deeply flawed in many ways. But it is huge and complicated and has something for everyone also. However dubious the prose can be from time to time the character writing is really tight. The POVs all feel like distinct, sympathetic, and complicated people. Everyone ends up being an unreliable narrator who is lying to themselves about something to cope in different ways for a really large and varying cast. I still think “what if the POV was King Arthur’s mother and not Arthur” is like one of the most progressive and interesting questions the series asks and he came up with that in the 90s. 

The series also has pretty great thematic complexity and depth in my opinion. GRRM has a lot to say about feudalism, violence, trauma, gender, war, politics, etc. Most of the commentary is about deconstructing the impact those patriarchial institutions have on both their enforcers and the people they oppress. It is not consistently perfect or woke by today‘s standards, (especially in terms of orientalism) but it is pretty consistently interesting.

So I've left my fics unlocked on AO3 because I have a reasonable amount of guests who read and comment, but I have to say the spam bot abuse is getting worse. Like, really really bad.

My latest chapter of Parasite got 5 abusive spam comments. And although I roll my eyes and delete them because I know they're rubbish and I'm confident that I'm a decent writer, it makes me really worry about newer writers, because some of this stuff is brutal and cruel.

Please please please combat this by leaving positive reviews for your writers on their work, especially if you know they're new to writing - it doesn't have to be long! A smiley face or a heart, tell the author that you enjoyed it or loved it, or quote your favourite line. Something to combat these abusive nasty bot comments.

We are going to lose new authors to this. We will. And it's not fair that people pouring their heart and souls into writing might only be getting these comments.

Lily x Coren

First of all, this is such a hot but weird pairing bc in no world would they ever meet or like one another BUT it’s ok. They both are hot.

Name: Willow Storm. Lily has the family thing of being named after a flower and although Coren finds it ridiculous, he must have really liked Lily to have a kid with her, and when in love, Coren lets almost anything slide by. 

Gender: Female. 

General Appearance: Her facial features are a lot like Coren. She has a sharper nose (and the little bump), heavy lower lips and large eyes. Her bone structure is sharper too with high cheekbone and refined features. Red fiery hair and vibrant blue eyes like Lily, alongside her freckled face. She is rather tall, standing at 178 cm, towering slightly over her mother. Willow has a left dimple too!

Personality: Willow is a blend of her parents’ contradictions (somehow the best of them went into her). She is fiery and passionate like her mother, but has a calmed edge from Coren. Independent and loyal, she’s someone who values honesty and straightforwardness. She is guarded around strangers, but once she opens up, she is witty and charming. Actually really sweet despite her accidental glares. She’s a natural leader, often stubborn, deeply caring.

Special Talents: Willow has a talent for painting. Painting is not just a hobby for her. It is a discipline that requires steady hands, control, and a keen eye for composition and light. She often uses her art to process or express her feelings, or to simply escape from reality.

Who they like better: Willow has a complicated relationship with both parents but tends to feel closer to Lily. Her mother was far more present in her life and, although busy, was incredibly warm and soft with her. Coren’s sometimes detached demeanor makes her cautious around him, so she would drift towards Lily more when it came to her parents. 

Who they take more after: Lily, as mentioned before, was more present and shaped Willow more into who she becomes. She has her mother’s open, but fiery nature alongside her romantic lenses.

Personal Headcanons: She collects flowers, pressing them carefully into a journal she holds dearly to herself. It was something she started as a child when her mother would take her to the gardens, and now that she is older, she continues to grow flowers before pressing them into her journal.

The fact that animals that care for their young will sometimes adopt others' lost or orphaned young to raise along their own is just funny to me. I know that it's all hormonal and there's no conscious thought involved in it, but the internal logic of it is so funny.

"Baby = success. More baby = more success. I have one baby and I found four other baby. I have five baby. I am being so fucking successful right now."
