#a feast for crows

[nobodysuspectsthebutterfly]

#the way the second grrm mentioned light snow starting as sam turned to jon i was like #george look at me you will NOT make a parallel with the snow flakes melting in robb's hair and now sam leaving look at me george #and george looked at me and said lmaooo watch THIS *shatters your heart*

"She has more courage than she knows"

"So do you, Sam. Have a safe, swift voyage and take care of her. And Aemon. And the child." Jon smiled a strange, sad smile. "And pull your hood up, the snow flakes are melting in your hair."

Oh jon my soft sullen repressed boy... throughout this whole chapter you could have a single clear sentence where you say sam "i love you and i care about you and i know you would be an excellent maester so i am sending you with gilly. you are my brother, please see your own strengths" but NO you will instead make a reference to parallel this farewell with the farewell you had with your other brother, robb, that sam will not get and leave it there...jon you dumbass bitch sam and your night brothers love you stop isolating yourself it will kill you-

Jaime deciding to become more involved in Tommen’s life is so funny because his three instincts are:

• teach this 8 year old to learn how to dissociate from unimaginable trauma

• plan to separate Tommen from his mother and fill the small council with allies of his own which should be easy because he knows Tommen’s favourite hobby (stamping his royal seal into hot wax)

• scrap all this and run to the Riverlands with Brienne. sorry Tommen

A FEAT FOR CROWS — ALAYNE II

[daphncart]

He bewitched them, Alayne thought as she lay abed that night listening to the wind howl outside her windows. She could not have said where the suspicion came from, but once it crossed her mind it would not let her sleep. She tossed and turned, worrying at it like a dog at some old bone. Finally, she rose and dressed herself, leaving Gretchel to her dreams. Petyr was still awake, scratching out a letter. “Alayne,” he said. “My sweet. What brings you here so late?”

“beautiful, and willful, and dead before her time.” / “he dreamed of her at times, so often that he could almost see her face. in his dreams, she was beautiful, and highborn, and her eyes were kind.” / “you saw her beauty, but not the iron underneath.” / “the slim, sad girl who wore a crown of pale blue roses and a white gown spattered with gore.”

Part 7 of Drawing Asoiaf Characters That Have An AI Generated Image On Their Wiki Page - Rosamund Lannister, Myrcella's handmaid and body double in Dorne

[wlwarhammer]

Jon is actually evil like no one is safe from a read 😭

The king? Fatty

8 year old girl? Stupid and boring

Her 7 year old brother? Fat like his fat dad

The crown prince? Botched lip filler

Jon’s own brother? Stupid smile

The identity of the other new POV is something he's keeping a secret for now, but he did say it's a character with a story to tell that really can't wait.

I have scrapped the idea of a five-year gap, as I announced not too long ago. I was originally going to make the 4th book five years later. So I’m now picking it up immediately after the third book. Most of the characters will continue as they were so there will be some new points of view. Two, I think. Cersei and... well, another one, a character who I could not see just being idle for five years.

I’m reading the three musketeers and found out that Brienne is a medieval French country and guess what the coat of arms was for the ‘Counts of Brienne’ was, a fricking lion!

This can’t be just a coincidence right?? George is subtly hinting that Brienne will marry Jaime, I mean the background is blue, it’s like a combo of their two houses!

GRRM did AFFC so good actually. Flipped the male-centric series on its head with majorly female PoVs and then started the book with our resident paranoiapilled Cersei Lannister convinced that her killer is hiding in the walls of the Red Keep. He introduced the first true knight of the series, keeping an oath to a dead woman. No chance, no choice. Asha fighting centuries of patriarchy to fight for her throne. “Balon let her believe she was a man.” “Your father made the same mistake with you.” Sansa and the whole Vale arc? Arya’s Cat of the Canals arc?? Hello? We have been served female characters on a platter here and I for one am eating. it. up. He truly snapped here tbh.
