got ask meme answers

@siriussilly​   16 & 17~

@cobaltzosia Ooh can you do 14 and 20 for the GoT ask meme please?

Sure! Thanks for indulging me!

send me a msg 

17. What part of GoT’s ending made you the most upset?

Did we even have an ending? I don’t recall. It doesn’t look like anything to me.

Ok. I’ll try to keep it civil: The waste of all those years of building up a story and then not even bothering threading up a conclusion that made sense within their OWN chosen stories. The utter detachment they made me feel, the way I am deprived of any closure, and the horrible messages and themes they chose to transmit. blegh I’ll never stop being mad about this. 

“Story”wise? The assassination of Jaime Lannister’s arc.

16. What part of GoT’s ending made you the happiest?

Gosh. Happy is not an emotion i can physically associate with anything about 8x06. I loved seeing Sansa as QiTN but I can’t be happy for her seeing her so very alone... I can’t understand why they couldn’t have her siblings at her coronation? Not even Arya? And why wouln’t Brienne be her QG rather than Bran’s if that’s where they wanted to go? ugh. I better shut it now. 

I suppose the character ending I have less of a problem with is Jon going to live with the wildlings in the real north. At least he has Ghost and his buddy Tormund and maybe he’ll run into a Val or someone like that there, he seems to get along with them  fairly well so that shouldn’t be to big of an issue and he gets to hunt and scout and do all the things he loves. I think he’ll be happy enough there. And if he wants to come south for a visit I’m sure Bran or Sansa will be more than happy to oblige a permit.

14. Got death I couldn’t bear to watch:

Shireen Baratheon. Can’t stomach it. Couldn’t even force myself to fully watch it once. Ned Stark would not be proud of me. I once looked away and then i just fast forward. 

20. Rate the GoT great houses in order from your favorite to least favorite. 

1. Lannister. No questions here. No second thoughts, nothing. Can’t even begin to count how many lannister sigil stuff I have at home. Or how much the rains of castamere can bring me to tears every damn time. 

Then...  This is a tough one.

2. Tyrell. I know this may sound strange to some but think about it: Looks like a wonderful place to live, lots of gardens, palaces, cultural events, orchestras, cunning and learned, seem pretty open minded,  no famine! not too hot or too cold... 

3. Stark. Also needs no explanation of why I love them. 

4. I know Mormont is not a great house but can i add it please? I love the fierce Mormont ladies and their motto is my fave of all Asoiaf.

5. Tully. Catelyn, Edmure, the Blackfish, need i say more. 

6. Arryn. the Eyrie looks dope, and quite safe unless dragons. that’s all i’m saying.

7. Baratheon. Stannis. You were my one true king and I feel for you so much. And any house that can produce Shireen, Gendry, Mia and Edric has a place in my heart anyways. 

8. It’s a tie. Greyjoy & Martell. I mean, obviously i’m happy a place like Dorne exists in this universe and on every marker Dorne is a Much Nicer place than the Iron Islands which are.. a wet cold rock full of seaweed in the middle of nowhere populated by trash pirates but... i love asha and theon and in general find the greyjoys so very entretaining!! I can’t put down their chapters! Whereas (i know this is not a popular opinion but... here it goes) I have always had serious issues with the way grrm fetishises Dorne and I found all the dornish storyline and charaters and all the martells on the wrong side of boring so... in universe i’m sure i rather be in dorne (minus the heat cause i hate hot weather) but if reading, greyjoys all the way.  

9. Targaryen. Yeah... not my thing. I just do not like all the magical bloodline that must be kept pure and all the rest of their entitlement and exceptionalism that runs through the family despite some very good Eggs they’ve produced ;) Also dragons are too dangerous for anyone to control and set on one another. no more dragons please.

@greyjoyys tagged me in this and something else but tbh because I was so indecisive on one Q in the other one I ended up finishing this one first -  whoops.

name: Valentina

nicknames: Val, Tina (hate that one), Clementine 

zodiac sign: Leo

height: ??? I think 5′8 ish??? But I’m pretty sure I’ve grown since then.

orientation: Bisexual

nationality: Italian by citizenship and by my father, Kenyan through my mother. Technically “British” by birth - but get this right? I have to do the Life In The UK Test as if I wasn’t literally born and raised here my entire life.

favourite fruit: I hate fruit with such a violent passion. Apart from apples.

favourite season: Born in Summer but boy am I an autumn/winter girl.

favourite book: Tie between A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin and Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck.

favourite scent: Body Shop’s seaweed range. I prefer the fresh coast over the pollution of my beautiful home city.

favourite colour: Blue

favourite animal: Dogs, crows, ravens, THE  O C T O P U S.

coffee | tea | hot cocoa: British law requires me to like tea and I do. Italian birthright means I must enjoy coffee and to be frank its the only thing that gets me though Sixth Form. And I like Hot Chocolate because I will injest anything with a crap tonne of sugar in it - love putting vanilla extract in my hot choc, would recommend.

average hours of sleep: 12 in summer hols. 5 during term time.

cat or dog person: 100% a dog person - I honestly don’t get cats.

favourite fictional characters: Would you believe if I said Theon Greyjoy? Because I am saying it. Add in Yara/Asha Greyjoy too. Robb, Bran, Jojen and Meera are my children. Renly Baratheon is a knob but I like him. Jean Kirschtein and Marco Bott from SnK/AOT. Thomas Cromwell in Wolf Hall? I don’t know if that counts because he is technically real? Tamora from Titus Andronicus because I played her and I adore her. Doctor Faustus. Lennie and George from Of Mice and Men (one of my favourite books I had to read for a dumb qualification) and The Inspector and Eric from An Inspector Calls (same thing about dumb qualification). Light Yagami and L from Death Note and I will stop there because this is getting out of hand.

number of blankets you sleep with: My trusted duvet and nothing else. Maybe a blanket on top if I am truly desperate.

dream trip: Venice. Which is ironic because my family are from Treviso which is known as the gateway city into Venice. I’d love to go to Scotland at some point but I think one dream trip that has always been a recurring one is Iceland.

blog created: No idea. This one and I had another one? I also ran one for our school project.

number of followers: About 380. I don’t make a habit of checking tbh

random fact: I was declared a missing person by the police after a text to my mum went wrong and I didn’t go home after I went to the after party for a production of Oklahoma I was in.

I’m not v big on tagging people because I feel like a nuisance but feel free to do so my children.
