on this tully tuesday, fuck you ryan condal, i see what you're doing. merging kermit and oscar tully and killing off their dad elmo without even naming him, you're trying to hide the muppet-naming pattern by only including the more mundane names. people may have heard of the name grover elsewhere like nonconsective us president grover cleveland, and certainly would with oscar like oscar mayar, the baloney/weiner man, but if you hear the names elmo and/or kermit you're thinking muppets right away. smdh, if you can embrace the gothic horror of harrenhal, you should be able to embrace the whimsy of grrm naming his dance-era tullys after sesame street muppets.
But this tiny little detail also humanizes Caitlyn and Vi so much, they already did a great job of making them realistic but this is the cherry on top! the hesitation, the tiniest little movement of the hand, Caitlyn reaching out- its so real and special to me..i'm choosing to believe that Vi did that on purpose, wanting to but ultimately shying away from touching her in a moment of such intimacy and vulnerability, thank god Cait noticed and took it as her cue to do something about it..
The lil’ guy I was making in the minutes when my students seemed to be handling their own projects well. (He ended up breaking right before I got him in the kiln).
Obsessed with that bit where P— told John to be a bad wizard. That they could write the history books later to say he was good, but what he needed to do now was to scare the shit out of people. What he needed was leverage.
Because that's what he did! That's exactly what he did. He got his leverage, he played the bad wizard, he scared the shit out of everyone. And then after the dust settled, when he was the last man standing, he wrote the history books to say he was good.
And like. The thing that gets me is. After all that, he named her Pyrrha.
