#KING BRAN TRUTHERS RISE!!!

[ceyskywalker]

real bran braang participants know HIStory will be written by grrm not asoiaf fans

I think just think the fandom gets quite unimaginative when it comes to Bran, like there's a literal apocalypse coming with creatures that westeros thinks are long gone and Bran will play a vital role to stop it and also on top of it is a magical boy, is it that unreasonable for him for westerosi smallfolk and nobles alike to see him as someone who rebuild the realm.

Right. Plus Westeros is quite nearly a failed state. It’s on the brink of collapse, not to mention the upcoming doom brought by the Others. Is it too far fetched to expect that the political structure shifts to a point that allows for Bran’s ascension?

Bran is so central to the resolution of ASOIAF. It’s often ignored that he is right there with Jon at the front lines of the upcoming conflict. He’s where he is, beyond the wall and facing a northern threat, for a reason. GRRM also identifies him as the most magic-heavy character. It certainly seems that we as a fandom get so caught up on AA/tptwp, that we forget Bran is a walking, talking, glaring Last Hero allegory. And yes, he’s a greenseer and a magic boy. But he’s also heir to the largest kingdom in Westeros. Somehow people forget that…

And the strangest thing is, people often acknowledged that he would be the last POV character since he was the first. It makes sense for the story to start and end with Bran, but that was often the extent of his importance in the story.

Bran staying in that cave was the dominant endgame theory for him for many, many years. But I do think a part of it was people thinking that a disabled kid couldn’t become plot relevant; he can’t move so he might as well remain stagnant where he is. It’s how a lot of the complaints re not being able to have kids start. Sure, it is a problem but like…Rickon exists? His plot relevance so far has literally just been him occupying that position once Bran became Robb’s heir. Imo the point of Rickon is to be Bran’s successor and the one who carries the Stark line forward (and GRRM has been adamant that he’ll play a big part in upcoming books). If GRRM wants to make Bran king, I don’t see how it can’t be resolved satisfactorily. But Bran is a character who doesn’t have a large fandom and one whose importance is always written out that people twist themselves into knots denying that.

🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇵🇷🐢🏝️ i got tired of complaining constantly on my main blog (@thewingedwolf is me!) about how sansa and rhaenyra did nothing wrong and also i needed a way to organize my theories and stuff. yes i have read all the books. yes i have (unfortunately) seen the whole show. yes i have seen all of hotd as well. so here we go. my stances are this, so you have an idea what to expect:

i am a catelyn, sansa, brienne, elia, lyanna and rhaenyra stan FIRST and a person SECOND

i would die for Gaemon Palehair, Lady Essie, and Sylvenna Sand, those are my canon OCs, and that’s why they’re my header.

maegor rhaena and aerea also could have saved westeros & jaehaerys should have been aborted in the womb.

Sansa and Bran are my favorites! I am a Sansa will be Queen in the North truther and a Bran will be the King in Harrenhal conspiracy theorist, It Is Heavily Foreshadowed In The Text and I stand on that!!

I'm well aware Rhaenyra has plenty of faults, I am saying that the greens (as in, the characters) do not like her because of her gender, and not for stuff she does that’s actually wrong, also, idc that she did all of that i simply think she’s fun.

Helaena really IS the one who did nothing wrong tho.

i am a Dark Daenerys believer. no, i don’t hate her - in fact, i really love her, although i do hate her show counterpart - I just think her arc is heading towards a dark path and being a villain protagonist is the more interesting route for her character.

House Martell will rise or I will piss in old man germ’s cornflakes.

I Will talk about the racism Dorne faces in the text and outside of it and neither your favorite house nor my favorite house is exempt from this. If you have a problem with that, keep it to yourself bc i do not care 🙏🏽

i multiship!! just bc i ship it doesn’t mean i think it’s gonna happen in the series, i just like the dynamic!!

i am in fact the annoying book jonsa truther they warned you about. i will Stay bitter about this. argue with the wall.

with that said, i also like theonsa, throbb, daemyra, laenyra, rhaewin, nedcat, braime, briensa, and a million other ones. faves listed here. several of them are dead dove-esque; what can i say, that's just george's style.

you decide whether it’s romantic or platonic when it’s an incest one, my opinion changes by the hour & im gonna fight grrm for making me think this much about incest.

i don’t like jonerys!!!!!! i'm sansan & sanrion ambivalent and i simply do not care about littlefucker like that. i would say i’ve thought positively about basically every other ship.

I JUST FINISHED A REREAD and i Have started a rewatch of the tv series as a form of torture.

i first read this series when i was 16 in like 2012-2013. i love to bitch about the takes i’ve seen. i sometimes reblog really old ass graphics bc they deserve new life even tho the creators are long since deactivated. i sometimes make graphics that look like they’re from 2014 bc we should bring that style back dammit i hate the typography movement going on rn.

big on tagging triggers so lmk (i’ll tag for all characters & major triggers but i’m fine with adding a specific one if asked and don't worry about it being a "weird" trigger - if sean bean's face or knives or wolves or whatever trigger you, i'm happy to tag for that!). my spoiler policy is that i’ll tag everything from this season as “hotd spoilers” and any of the Big Events with “episode title spoilers” but i can’t guarantee I can be consistent longer than like 2 days though i will try!! i Will be talking about any book canon events tho, the books have been out for years either you know how to avoid them or you know everything, i’m not tagging that.

i have a tag page that is more organized than the slapdash nonsense on this post, feel free to check it out here.

i may sound angry but i promise i am genuinely just here for a laugh. i just have resting bitch voice and no feel for tone and use the word fuck too much. it’s fine and unserious.
