if condal had been able to wrestle away asoiaf from d&d and do his little queer coding for random characters who do you think it’s getting that treatment in the main series. i’m not doing a poll bc he’d obviously choose more than one character to do this with (considering he basically did it with every targaryen + alicent, u can make the argument here for others as well imo), we’re all just gonna start yapping lol. my thoughts are-
arya stark - no brainer
sansa stark - also obvious to me
samwell tarly
theon greyjoy - i Really think he would have done a tragic visaemon thing with throbb
cersei lannister - i think she would be his alicent esque “she’s a lesbian except she also wants to fuck her male relatives” thing, i think of condal had been able to go wild with asoiaf he would have done some amazing and WEIRD shit with cersei & joffrey’s relationship
brienne of tarth
jaime lannister - man Already has the bi wife energy + is constantly thinking about how amazing other men are, i think he would playing up some crazy gender performance stuff with brienne, jaime, and cersei relationships on all three legs of that triangle
oberyn martell - i know he is bi in canon but the way they write his queerness in the og series is almost cartoonishly queerphobic and i think condal would have had much more interesting things to say here
#i’m redirecting my rage about ‘bisexuals don’t understand gender complexity & also there is not crossover bw lesbians & bi women history’#into positive thoughts. i will be happy this pride if it kills me!!!!!!!!!!!!#getting on my soap box#before anyone starts whacking condal’s admittedly elementary idea of feminist retellings & queer identity i want u to remember loras’ story#not even just one part of it i’m talking the entire arc they wrote for him in that show. condal still deserves to have his bed shat in but#you can’t deny he is better on the queer front than d&d. not that this is saying much!!! they sucked!!!!!!!!!!
