alternate universe shameless but it's about the milkovich family. they dont tone down terry, he's a nazi and a child molester. they show you all the trauma those siblings went through.

but they also show you when mandy, age 5, came home with a bruised knee, colin and iggy tracked down who pushed her at school and made his face bleed. or when mickey always made sure to block her door when he knew terry would be black out drunk, sadly he wasnt always there to protect her. or when their mother left and mandy started to cook so her brothers would be cared for. they show you the love bubble the siblings had to create in order to survive in this household. they also show you the awful coping mechanisms, the violence, the ptsd.

when did they all realize their life was fucked? when did they stop trying at school? mickey is shown to be quick with maths and he is also an artist and they never show that part of him. maybe one of them played an instrument (garage punk band era anyone?) but eventually had to stop to keep up with terry's shady activities. perhaps jamie and mickey knew they were both gay but never actually dared talk about it, but then on their wedding day jamie made sure all the guests were properly guided to the venue.

I find it weird that a character like viserys is made to be so likeable. A man who chooses to kill his wife to save their unborn child after she had told him that she won't go through another pregnancy because she's already went through so many failed ones, in my opinion is NOT a moraly gray character thing to do, i think it's just evil to kill the woman you're supposed to love and protect, i think it's evil to put her through so much pain only to end her life in the most evil way possible while depriving her of choice and autonomy.

Which reminds me of Jamie from GOT because even before i watched the show i remember seeing comments hyping Jamie's back story and arc and seeing him with Brienne made me like him.. until he got back home and probably the second thing he did was rape cercei besides their sons dead body... that scene and seeing some comments of people being like "he didn't rape her" was my last fucking straw, (a person trying to stop you from fucking them and saying "no not here" over and over again is fucking rape) maybe i watched an episode or 2 after that but that's it i never went back.

I think Jamie killing the stark kid in season 1 to keep his and cerceis relationship a secret is moraly gray, because he's protecting cercei and their children, but raping the person you love besides your child's dead body is just plain evil, it doesn't matter how you feel about Jamie, cercei or their relationship, it's just plain evil!

Which leads me to why are they writing men to be so evil only to expect me to view them as likeable moraly gray characters?!

GoT writers were literally:

"The audience are raising secret toasts to JamiexCersei endgame"

I know Brienne and Jamie is powerful because even I, a sapphic who would love to follow Brienne like a puppy and worship the ground she walks on and give her hourly forehead kisses, still mainly reads fanfic about her with a straight man.

Even when I read her in an f/f relationship, I know without a doubt B+J is the OTP in my heart and this is just a fun fanfiction exercise.

I do not like the way redemption arcs are portrayed in most Western media. The narrative tends to focus on the perpetrator rather than the people they have harmed. A genuine redemption arc requires recognition of past harm, sincere remorse, and active efforts to repair the damage done. Guilt alone is not enough to achieve redemption.

The process of redemption involves both feelings of guilt and concrete actions to address past wrongs. Also, you cannot truly be redeemed while you are still part of a system that is actively harming others.  Restitution is a crucial component of a successful redemption narrative, and few prominent Western narratives have achieved this. 

This is about Jamie Lannister because I started watching Game of Thrones again, and I honestly can't see why so many people say that he's being redeemed by the narrative. He has not done anything that supports that theory. It also irks me that so many people absolve him of any responsibility in his relationship with Cersei, but that's not what this post is about.

could you speak more about yrz and jaime’s relationship? i’m so curious on what’s going on there

Jamie’s first impression of Yrz: tiny naïve pretty boy

Jamie’s actual impression after kings landing: how are you, a tiny 14yo, the same amount of scary as my father!!!

[crazy-god-bunker-jughead]

Early Jamie chapters are so funny. He’ll be like “when I get home I should just marry my sister. And then we can betroth our kids to one another! This is normal.”

On one hand I can't believe GoT is giving me a bit of Meredith muse, but also I can absolutely believe it.

Kirkwall should've been able to convey the intense political workings of the city-state in the game had they not been rushed to finish it. Between the ways that the Templars are deeply embedded as an armed force (e.g. when the active Viscount during Meredith's time as Knight-Captain decided to block Orlesians from achieving passage on the Waking Sea , the Chantry ordered the Knight-Commander and his Templars to pressure the Viscount to open it. This led to the Viscount sending mercenaries, capturing and hanging the Knight-Commander, which forced Meredith to lead her templars to go after the Viscount and arrest him. This chain of events led to Grand Cleric Elthina naming Meredith as the succeeding Knight-Commander, which created a strong political alliance between them aka the only person who could truly 'command' Meredith).

I've written about it before, but the way that Meredith knows full well the sort of armed force she has at her command is the exact reason after the Viscount is killed by the qunari that she refuses to allow the people to fill his seat and declares marital law - she wants that power, and it is her opportunity to lead the city in her image (paired with her paranoia, enhanced by the red lyrium idol sword).

These are all very calculated moves, and so I do think Meredith would do the same in a GoT verse, even if her position is not all powerful. She waits for the opportune moment to seize control, whilst still using other methods to aid her (some kind of magic, I've not yet figured out as I'm only on season 3 now).

I've gone full brain rot again. I can't stop thinking about how traumatized the characters are in asoiaf

[save-the-villainous-cat]

Alright everyone STOP sending prompts so that she can work through the ones she has already 🙄

“I will never get enough of you.”  cersei and jaime (runs away)

Smut Dialogue - Accepting - @muutos

Spun gold. She shines in the sunlight like she had been dipped into liquid ore, a goddess come to bless him with her very presences. Or was she a curse? The answer changed as did her whims. Today he's been gifted her brilliance, sweet love pouring from her as she nears. Jamie can't help the wonder if she had some request she thinks she needs to coat with sugar or if she merely.. Missed him. It's been weeks since last they were able to steal even a single moment alone.

And he knows the absence of her was a festering wound. He lived on the crumbs of watching her from afar. Her smile, her laughter, the way her eyes would cut to him and hold him prisoner until she released him.

I will never get enough of you.

Ah.. How foolish he was. She folds herself against his chest, melting into him and he closes his arms around his slender frame. She's lost weight rarely, worry and stressing eating away at her but it doesn't take any of her shine. She's still, now and forever, the most beautiful woman who ever walked the earth.

"Then it's lucky, sister mine, even death can't separate us."
