Contrasts of GENDRYA ;

“The Baratheon look was stamped on his face, in his jaw, his eyes, that black hair. Gendry had to be Robert's.”

“Arya had her father’s eyes, the grey eyes of the Starks.”

Rain By Jorge Luis Borges Translated by AZ Foreman

The afternoon has brightened up at last For rain is falling, sudden and minute. Falling or failing. There is no dispute : Rain is a thing that happens in the past.

Who hears it fall retrieves a time that fled When an uncanny windfall could reveal To him a flower by the name of rose And the perplexing redness of its red.

Falling until it blinds each windowpane, Within a suburb now long lost this rain Shall liven black grapes on a vine inside

A certain patio that is no more. A long-awaited voice through the downpour Is from my father. He has never died.

But, you can't simply spend your whole life waiting for a miracle to happen, a person to appear, and a hand to hold.

[conn-artist]

I ADORE characters that just have something subtly wrong with them. Just the slightest thing that makes them uncanny, like they don’t belong in that world.

Like how the Darkling has looked 17 for centuries.

Or how Miguel has claws instead of spider grip.

Or how Nimona’s eyes reflect light like a cat’s.

Or how Connwaer never got sick.

Or Achilles hair being gold while everyone else’s was brown.

You know, just little things that’s say “this one is different. This one is not like us.”

Just a little opinion piece revisiting my Master's subject of ancient Pastoralism and comparing it to Cottagecore.

[text ID: "Before the heat of day

All in the misty morn,

Comes AUGUST with her gifts

To men, of yellow corn,

With shining hair bound up,

And deep blue misty eyes,

And lips the colour of

The poppies that she ties:

Her soft maize-coloured robe

Doth flutter to her feet;

Her lap is full of corn

And summer flowers sweet.

Her hands with poppies filled,

Of glowing scarlet hue,

Bound up together with

Fair cornflowers of blue

And now the corn is gathered

And 'neath the setting sun,

With lovely light above the hills,

She knows her time is done."]
