The Green family dynamics are so interesting because like, Viserys is the father but due to his decay he seems more like the grandfather, whereas Otto is the Grandsire but seems to fill out the role of a father more, not only to his daughter but also her children, so he and his daughter are a mother/father unit but in some situations Alicent is treated like a sibling to her children (by Otto) and then you have the obvious Helaena/Aegon happening (siblings who are also husband/wife and mother/father to their children), but at the same time it seems like Aemond is the one trying to be the family's protector and attempting to step up as patriarch, with some of the scenes between him and Alicent giving off the vibes of equals rather than Mother and Son (like when they discuss Aemond finding Aegon) and his relationship with Aegon seeming like he's the big brother and not the other way around, in this essay I will-

or: 11 songs about divorce & 1 song about having a glove kink (while your marriage is falling apart)
(lyric snippets & audios below the cut)
5 Years Into Marriage - Matt Owens & Hannah White
5 years into marriage
And it's looking like we're almost done.
I love you,
I'm just not in love with you any more
(no, no, no)
Both floated down the aisle,
Started taking each other for granted somewhere between-
The pulpit and those church doors.
Confetti kissed your face,
And I trod it right into the floor.
We can stick it out another ten years, and we probably will.
Barricade - Stars
I found you on a Saturday, and that was where I lost you
You had to finally walk away because of what it cost you
Years later on, I saw your face
In line to catch the morning train
You looked like you'd been softened
Like you never really loved the pain
I Don't Want Love - The Antlers
If I leave before you,
And I walk out alone,
Keep your hands to yourself
When you follow me home.
If You Love Me, You Will Lie - Out lines
And shouting through the bathroom door
You said that I was keeping score
Why can't we accept that there's no more
We never say goodbye
It's Beginning To Get To Me - Snow Patrol
I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screamin' under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense
Midnight Love - Girl In Red
I hope that the right time one day arrives
So, I'll be willing to let this die
Able to look you right in the eyes
Say I'm not your consolation prize
Mothers - Daughter
You will grow all you need to grow inside my spine
And then take what you need to take, what's yours is mine
And then just give all you want of it to some new thing
I'll stay here, the provider of that constant sting they call love
Nothing New - Rio Romeo
So, won't you please spare me indignity?
And won't you please give me some decency?
And won't you please call it if our time is through?
'Cause I know that we fall apart when nothing's new
Sometimes I Still Feel the Bruise - The Mountain Goats
Making contact gets harder
As the silence grows longer
Why would you think of me?
When you were not the one in love
When you were not the dreamer
When you were just the dream
I'm under no illusion
As to what I meant to you
But you made an impression
And sometimes I still feel the bruise
Splinter - Scott Hutchison & James Graham
‘Cause I always took the cutting,
And you only missed my heart
Although it amounts to nothing,
The nothing’s left it’s mark
The Modern Leper - Frightened Rabbit
Well, I crippled your heart a hundred times
And still can't work out why
You see, I've got this disease
I can't shake and I'm just rattling through life
Well, this is how we do things now
Yeah, this is how the modern stay scared
So I cut out all the good stuff
Yeah, I cut off my foot to spite my leg
Wedding Gloves - Frightened Rabbit FT. Aiden Moffat
Do you even remember
What we said in the vows?
God was watching on Saturday
But He is not with us now, with us now

very importrant oc diagram
more in depth descriptions of this stuff below ig
omg same trauma - sympathy and respect but also acknowledging youre not the same. propably the most normal out of the three options. you know very intimate stuff about this person but you have never met and its weird. you live your life normally but sometimes you wonder what it would be like to meet him
i will never be as cool - constantly comparing yourself to him to the point a big chunk of your personality still revolves around your connection to him (in ryous case this is mixed with seeing shiro as a sort of idealised perfect father figure despite never having interacted with the guy before)(its really weird and he tries to be secretive abt it but the others knows anyway)(like kiddo they can tell)(youre not subtle at all). he is soooo good and so pure and perfect and you will never live up to that no matter how hard you try. there must be something wrong with you
gender dysphoria - what it says on the tin. you have this guys memories and voice and body and face and it makes you want to scream and cry and kill him and bury his body in the woods so nobody can ever find it
(also to clear things up this diagram and the explanations are written from a point in the timeline before the whole 'stickbug gets mind controlled' thing so the clones havent met shiro yet)(also also obv this is pretty simplified)

I was gonna wait until I’d made more progress on the fanfic but I’m too impatient so… say ‘Hi’ to Tarryn Lavellan. My second Rook and Ashara’s little brother. Since he spent so much time with his sister and the rest of the Inquisition, it only felt right to draw his looks for both dai and datv.
I’m pretty happy with how these turned out in I’m being honest. I love this little dude so much that if I didn’t love my other Rook so much, Ryn would be my first playthrough pc. But Poe came first so he’s gonna have to wait a little while lol.
This is the first time I’ve drawn any of my characters as a kid but it was a fun challenge. I drew the younger version first so I had a good reference. And it’s been fun thinking about all the antics Tarryn got up to around Skyhold. He and Sera got along like two wet cats in a burlap sack, and if not attached to his sister at the hip- he could usually be found with Leliana. Oh and he had a big crush on Harding… so maybe that crush will go somewhere, idk, we’ll see… :3
