Sneak peek:

You moaned into the kiss, your tongue tangling with his as you surrendered yourself to him. He wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer as he deepened the kiss.

Your hands roamed over his muscular chest, feeling the heat of his body through his shirt. You couldn't wait to feel him pressed against you, skin to skin.

You tore off his shirt, revealing his muscular chest. Your hands roamed over his body, feeling every hard ridge and plane. He groaned in pleasure as you touched him, his fingers tracing a path down your back.

Pouncival and River Rees have the same energy.

I don’t make the rules.

i was genuinely gonna have a heart failure because of that match geez

a few takeaways:

1. this team is so unserious, josh adams shaking his own hand and liam williams trying to get a piggyback off semi radradra.

2. dan biggar’s usual rants and meltdowns continue to make me my day.

3. george north, louis rees zammit and elliot dee, all scoring, they did it for me.

4. jac morgan is mini goat

5. there were so many hits that genuinely made me want to be sick.

6. despite the heart failures, that was actually a really good game.

onto the next one!!

every time i remember any of these guys exist my day is ruined

Necks please!

DRACULA The Attic Theatre, Stratford upon Avon, Saturday 21st October 2023 For this year’s Halloween treat, Tread The Boards is serving up a new adaptation of the often-adapted Bram Stoker novel – the book that made vampiric lore part of the collective consciousness.  So, you probably are familiar with the story, which I won’t rehash here.  This version by Catherine Prout and John-Robert…

My kofi

[atopvisenyashill]

The Ruling Princes and Princesses of Dorne

Leaders of Dorne During and Post Nymeria’s Conquest

Morgan Martell - Wentworth Miller

I just thought it would be cool if the line came from a multiracial Morgan Martell. 

Mors Martell - Miguel Ángel Silvestre

The coming of the Rhoynar to Dorne is clearly inspired by Moorish Spain so I specifically chose a Spanish actor for Mors.

Nymeria of Ny Sar - Sofia Boutella

Since the inspirations for the Rhoynar are Moorish Spain and Dorne is Palestine, I focused on choose Maghrebi/North African and Palestinian faceclaims for the characters from here onward.

I think Sofia actually looks kinda like some of the drawings for Nymeria as well!

Morra Nymeros Martell - Hiam Abbass

I chose the name Morra because I thought Nymeria would want to name her first born, likely knowing there would be some push back against a woman inheriting, after the father whose seat she’d be taking over.

I also thought Morra would likely be a bit older considering Nymeria lived for so long

Mors II Nymeros Martell - Takfarines Bengana

The Red Princes

We aren’t told why they rule together.

I figured that meant either they were triplets and the oldest decided they should rule together, or that the oldest was sickly and decided to give their siblings ruling power to help cover the gaps they wouldn’t be able to fill as a disabled ruler.

With that in mind, I tried to find people around the same age, and gave them all “M” names because George loves naming conventions like that. I like to believe Myria is the oldest and the disabled one, with Mellei as the leader of her forces and Manfrey as her right hand in Sunspear. 

Myria Nymeros Martell - Hafsia Herzei

I completely made this name up

It should be pronounced MY-ree-uh.

I combined the “Ny” sound from Nymeria but with the M from Mors, then added the “ria” because a number of female Dornish names end in “ia.” 

Manfrey Nymeros Martell - Rami Malek 

There’s a Dornish character named Manfrey, one of Doran’s cousins. 

Mellei Nymeros Martell - Nadia Hilker

One of the two servants that Doran assigns to Arianne is named Mellei.

I figured it was likely an old fashioned Dornish name, along with Morra.

Here's a little taste of another short story coming soon:

Age 18+ ONLY below!

You moaned into the kiss, your tongue tangling with his as you surrendered yourself to him. He wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer as he deepened the kiss.

Your hands roamed over his muscular chest, feeling the heat of his body through his shirt. You couldn't wait to feel him pressed against you, skin to skin.

You tore off his shirt, revealing his muscular chest. Your hands roamed over his body, feeling every hard ridge and plane. He groaned in pleasure as you touched him, his fingers tracing a path down your back.

This is what I get for not trying to shame tumblr and Instagram into compliance. This one work?? Hoping it's not weird region rules

okay this video is brilliant! (external link will take you to an instagram reel of a welsh comedian morgan rees)

here's a fun fact, i originally learned the welsh for jellyfish was "cont y môr" and well i can see why the schools don't want to teach kids that one! 😅

[spider-xan]

We never get any confirmation on what exactly R. M. stands for in Renfield's name, but if we assume his parents would have chosen very traditional and therefore old timey popular names as upper-class types, I figured we can look at what the most popular boy names that start with R and M were in England during the 1830s when he would have been born and make educated guesses based on that.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find such a list online, though they exist in print, but I did find this list of the top 200 baby names for boys and girls in England and Wales in 1840, and honestly, I don't think the names would be too different from an 1830s list:

Robert (9th), Richard (11th), Ralph (44th), Reuben (46th), Rees (87th), Roger (89th), Rowland (95th), Robinson (131st), Ruben (157th), Reginald (176th)

Matthew (26th), Michael (30th), Mark (34th), Moses (59th), Martin (63rd), Morgan (83rd), Mathew (93rd), Morris (104th), Miles (115th), Maurice (118th), Matthias (167th), Marshall (186th), Marmaduke (189th)
