#connor roy — flower wilting from the inside. nourished on insects and pain

[edwardsissyhandsthtdanceslikeabb]

lowkey had an epiphany when i realized the parallels between tywin + tyrion and roman + logan, the malformed son who reflects his father's most shameful inclinations, and so suffers an entombing of the brilliance they do share. the best of you marred by one's immutable predispositions, by divergences of dna.

honestly, now that i write it out the roy siblings and the lannisters reflect quite well.

KLR and jaime both prodigal sons with fleeting convictions, ideological crisis's and premature killer instinct.

cersei and shiv both undermined daughters, and so made overzealous snakes, knowing only perversions of love and left ensnaring those beholden to them.

roman and tyrion, professor cant fuck and mr crossbolt fistfuck

while the ways they're shaped and nuanced are notably incongruent, both cocky boing boing brothers are left robbed of their glory by the golden son, regarded forever as defective, irrevocably so.
