old valyria literally being hell like fire and brimstone hell with slaves being whipped and dying under the weight of the sexual and moral depravity and great horrible beasts screeching overhead and targ nation is still like old VALYRIA 💜

Just got really sad thinking about how Arya and Sansa have no idea the lengths their mom went to save them — Catelyn literally broke Jaime out of prison and burned all her relationships for the extremely small chance that this very risky hostage trade would work because it was the only option she had left and she wouldn’t give up on her daughters :(

10. Loras v Jaime: about as lighthearted as any of this gets

ive been thinking about "there must always be a stark in winterfell" as a threat... i love the theory that the starks had some hand in the others, i LOVE the theory that the starks MADE the others in order to become the kings of winter. i think the idea of winterfell as a prison is so fun the idea that the starks MUST stay there as divine punishment for their choices. "if you leave, you will die, you will stay here forever". it's so antithetical to everything the starks and winterfell mean to the characters and i think that's fun! winterfell is so warm and loving and the castle that feels most like a true home for its inhabitants, the one LEAST like a prison. but its got that ominous crypt of corpses beneath it...

People really are missing the point of a character like Nettles. Being the a non-Valyrian dragonrider is what makes her different(in every positive definition of that word) and helps to serve a larger purpose in this story.

Valyrian blood is not special. It’s not needed to do great things. No one is special because of what family they happen to be born into.

A non-Valyrian Nettles shows that we are more than the circumstances which we are born into. Our birth, our names, and our very blood does not define us. Our actions are what do. We can overcome so much and rise to become absolutely extraordinary with a little bit of determination, patience, and a dash of help along the way. Nettles exemplifies that to the fullest extent.

She's more than a Black Valryian. She doesn’t have to be Valyrian. She shouldn’t have to be Valyrian.

She’s a survivor. She’s a final girl. She’s a Black low-born girl likely without a drop of dragons blood that tames a wild dragon with patience that killed countless others who had dragons blood. She survived the Dance where others high and low alike fell and perished to become a firewitch to the Burned Men.

Her legacy is immortalized in the history books(and by the Burned Men cause they still worship her) as one of the last(if not the last) dragonrider(s) before Dany all without having any known Valyrian ancestry.

I was born.  I lived. I am guilty of being a dwarf, I confess it. And no matter how many times my good father forgave me, I have persisted in my infamy.

if i could add anything to westeros it would be a lint roller. ghost’s pure white fur all over jon’s all black night’s watch uniform? you don’t need more beets, you don’t need the horn of winter, not more men, not gloves, not hats. you are in desperate need of a double sided adhesive rolling handle. please. satin is tired of having to hand pick it off your uniform for you

i don't know how else to say it: jon snow comes from two long lines of reckless magical bullshit and is basically a melting pot of feral royal blood but that's less important than the fact that he was raised by ned stark.

sansa exists as a representation of traditional femininity in the sense that she has the personality traits that are considered "feminine" and enjoys all activities that are deemed "for women" in westeros, but also in the sense that femininity is a performance. she is a character that has to constantly overthink her appearance, her behavior and her words to see if they conform to people's expectations of a proper lady and a well behaved hostage, she has to endure horrors while forcing herself to smile and please because expressing her honest self would get her in serious trouble. sansa is traditionally feminine because she is first and foremost a performer whose life depends on looking pretty and pleasant to people who have power over her.

stannis is the general manager of the world's worst olive garden. davos is his favorite assistant manager and sometimes stannis takes him into the walk-in and licks the stumps of his fingers in a normal way. jon is his least favorite but he runs that shit like the navy which stannis respects except he's literally held jon down before to wipe the eyeliner off of his face because he hates emos. jon cries in the walk-in. after the fingersucking. oh also it's important that you know in this au stannis did still cut off davos's fingers himself and that's not like normal they're just fucking crazy. the pasta at this place sucks shit.
