Round 1, Match 11: Ice IX (Cat's Cradle) vs. Ice Man (Mega Man)
Ice-IX Propaganda:
Does it count as a character? it causes the end of the world, which is neat
Ice Man Propaganda:
nobody submitted him which is a shame. i love this ice dude. he's so silly and i love his cute design so much. hard to tell that he's a robot but he's so chill (pun intended)

Numby.
Why does the personification of the Void happen to appease your palate?
Are you truly a Devourer of star systems tucked within an adorable look?
I got my eyes on you lil guy.

A Game of Thrones, Tyrion II
His own remote ancestor, King Loren of the Rock, had tried to stand against the fire when he joined with King Mern of the Reach to oppose the Targaryen conquest.
That was close on three hundred years ago, when the Seven Kingdoms were kingdoms, and not mere provinces of a greater realm.
Between them, the Two Kings had six hundred banners flying, five thousand mounted knights, and ten times as many freeriders and men-at-arms.
Aegon Dragonlord had perhaps a fifth that number, the chroniclers said, and most of those were conscripts from the ranks of the last king he had slain, their loyalties uncertain.
The hosts met on the broad plains of the Reach, amidst golden fields of wheat ripe for harvest.
When the Two Kings charged, the Targaryen army shivered and shattered and began to run.
For a few moments, the chroniclers wrote, the conquest was at an end…
…But only for those few moments, before Aegon Targaryen and his sisters joined the battle.
It was the only time that Vhagar, Meraxes, and Balerion were all unleashed at once.
The singers called it the Field of Fire.
Near four thousand men had burned that day, among them King Mern of the Reach.
King Loren had escaped, and lived long enough to surrender, pledge his fealty to the Targaryens, and beget a son, for which Tyrion was duly grateful.

'"We have seen the dead come to life, you and I, and it isn't something I would like to see again'"
With all respect to Old Bear, I wouldn't mind a certain young Lord Commander coming back to life from being dead.
Actually, I do hope that Martin will bring him ASAP to life because I want to keep reading his pov chapters on the upcoming books.

he had assumed the bruxa was the only monster here , have scented only her , through all her spilled blood and the faint tinge of flames in the air where she had vanished and reappeared again , over and over as they battled . he was only glad to get out of there alive , without only a few average cuts and bruises . by some miracle , he had also come away without a single bite , though several times the bruxa's fangs had come terribly close to breaking skin and veins . but they hadn't .
and now , he dragged himself from the abandoned cellar , casting a gaze at the abandoned estate . but when he paused , only for a moment , he swore he could hear movement inside . he expected a stray knight had survived the attack and taken shelter inside the walls while he waited for help , but the trails of blood led only from the cellar , and not up the steps to the dilapidated building itself . his boots clicked heavily against the cracked stone steps .
anonymous . The baby bruxa had been sitting alone for a long time in a safe , shady hiding place in an abandoned but still�� very nice house , awaiting the return of her mother who had not returned for a long time . Unable to do much , she sat in a soft nest of pillows and began playing with her stuffed toys out of boredom . When her sensitive ears picked up the sound of someone's soft footsteps , she immediately thought it was her mother , but when she saw a large powerful figure with glow-in-the-dark cat-like eyes , she huddled in the nest and tried as if by instinct to keep out of sight , hoping that the strange someone would go away .
he spotted her only an instant before she hid . he hear her , too , and her frightened breathing , and he could smell her and smell that she was no ordinary human child at all , but that she carried the same odour as the bruxa that he had just killed . oh no . the thought pained him with immeasurable guilt , which he expertly urged back before it threatened his consciousness . this was a child . this was a baby . regardless of what species she was , the witcher couldn't simply …
❛ hey , ❜ he murmured softly , shutting the door to the small room behind himself and slowly squatting , his bad leg extended slightly outside , one arm between his legs to balance himself . ❛ it's all right . not here to hurt you . ❜ he crept forward , just slightly , then sat himself down fully on the dusty floor . ❛ were you waiting for your mother ? ❜ another pang . i'm sorry . ❛ you the only one ? ❜
