She sounded so like Sansa, so happy and innocent with her dreams

So there is magic beyond the Wall after all. He found himself thinking of his sisters, perhaps because he'd dreamed of them last night. Sansa would call this an enchantment, and tears would fill her eyes at the wonder of it

So the singer played for her, so soft and sad that Arya only heard snatches of the words, though the tune was half-familiar. Sansa would know it, I bet. Her sister had known all the songs, and she could even play a little, and sing so sweetly

Lady Catelyn had said that Sansa was a gentle soul who loved lemon cakes, silken gowns, and songs of chivalry, yet the girl had seen her father's head lopped off and been forced to marry one of his killers afterward. If half the tales were true, the dwarf was the cruelest Lannister of all. If she did poison King Joffrey, the Imp surely forced her hand. She was alone and friendless at that court

“I like the fighting stories. My sister Sansa likes the kissing stories”

I see your Hogwarts AUs and gently recommend: do a Little Witch Academia AU instead. It just works better.

No, I'm serious. It's got everything the old model has and more: academic rivalry, silly magic words, color-coded uniforms, magic science, broomsticks, rich people-bashing, robots, sword fights, STEM vs. Humanities, Twilight rip-offs, Finland, crypto-bro dragons, cyberbullying Yetis, the nuclear arms race, Marxism, BEES (if you know, you know), and saving the world with friendship and this gun wand I found!

The Bastard Kings and their families

This is series of posts are complementary to this historical parallels post from the JON SNOW FORTNIGHT EVENT, and it's purpouse to discover the lives of medieval bastard kings, and the following posts are meant to collect portraits of those kings and their close relatives.

In many cases it's difficult to find contemporary art of their period, so some of the portrayals are subsequent.

1) Manfred I of Sicily (1232 – 26 February 1266), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and Bianca Lancia

2) His parents, Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II (1194 – 1250), son of Constance I of Sicily and Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I; with Bianca Lancia (c. 1210 – c. 1246/1248), daughter of Bonifazio d'Agliano

3) His brother, Conrad IV of Germany ( 1228 – 1254), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and his wife Isabella II of Jerusalem

4) His nephew, Conradin (25 March 1252 – 29 October 1268), son of Conrad IV and his wife Elisabeth of Bavaria

5) His brother, Henry VII of Germany (1211 – 1242), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and his wife Constance of Aragon

6) His brother, Enzo of Sardinia ( c. 1218 – 1272), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and Adelaide

7) His wife, Beatrice of Savoy (1223 – 1259), daughter of Amadeus IV of Savoy and his wife Marguerite of Burgundy

8) His daughter with his wife Helena Angelina Doukaina, Beatrix of Sicily (1260 –1307)

9) His daughter with his wife Beatrice of Savoy, Constance II of Sicily (c. 1249 – 1302); with her husband Peter III of Aragon (c. 1239 –1285), son of James I of Aragon and his wife Violant of Hungary

Lesser Known Asteroids for Synastry and Composite Charts - PART 5 - Beatrix and Dante

The Muse and the Artist ~ Love at First Sight

Based on the relationship between Beatrice Portinari and Dante Alighieri

The Asteroids:

Beatrix 83

Dante 2999

83, 2999

Both asteroids are actually named after Beatrice Portinari and Dante

Their Relationship:

First love, Love at first sight, Lasting impression

Dante is an Italian poet, writer, and philosopher

Beatrice Portinari is known to be the muse for Dante's famous works like Vita Nuova and Divine Comedy

Beatrice and Dante meet only twice in life

The first meeting was at a May Day party when both were 9 years old; he claims he fell in love with her at this time (love at first sight)

The second meeting was 9 years later; he says both meetings affected him greatly

However, Beatrice and Dante did not get together and marry. Both married other people.

After Beatrice's early death, Dante threw himself into his work and wrote poems in her memory

The Beatrice in Dante's works is always shown in a very positive light and as a divine guide for his character; idealized

His work portrayed courtly love (formal, secret, unrequited, respectful)

She became not only a muse for Dante but also, through his works, became a muse for many Pre-Raphaelite artists and painters

Possible Outcomes for this Couple

There is a clear first love and/or love at first sight story with a Beatrix-Dante couple. If the Beatrix person is not actually the very first person the Dante person loved, it still feels like this is the first time he/she has ever fallen for someone so immediately and intensely.

It is not easy for the couple to actually come together. Either one or both are already in relationships, or one person cannot confess his/her feelings. The other person might not even know that he/she has feelings for him/her. Dante person might admire Beatrix from afar, willingly, or it could be frustrating for him/her.

Classic muse and artist placement. If Beatrix person becomes a source of inspiration for Dante person. Even if no artwork is created, there is something about the Beatrix person or the relationship in general that makes the Dante person dream and feel inspired. There's something in the air that makes this relationship seem significant, and Dante person feels the need to express this in some way.

One person is put on a pedestal by the other. The other wants to keep a certain distance so that the fantasy is not broken and he/she can keep idealizing and admiring. Or, he/she is blind to any flaws of the other person.

Beatrix person makes a lasting impression on Dante person. No matter what happens to either of them in life, the Dante person will always remember and will try to keep Beatrix alive in his/her thoughts and memories for as long as possible. Dante can be obsessive over Beatrix and have a very hard time letting go.

Referring to herself as Beatrice is proof she's read some of her own AU fanfic

I think I figured out a while ago that the part of being raised Evangelical Christian that fucked me up the most was the aspect that your thoughts are constantly being monitered by god. A close 2nd was the very commonly expressed idea that giving your life to god would make you very happy, with the underlying idea that if you were unhappy then god did not love you.
