ASOS; Steel and Snow: 26 JON III (pages 355-366)

"You know nothing, Jon Snow." - Ygritte, Mother of Memes

Jon and the wildlings prepare to cross the wall, Ygritte finds a cave with secret tunnels galore and lore.

The Reader thinks they should be allowed to take certain 'romantic tropes' away from some authors, and warns drinking game players to switch to non-alcoholics again. I know one thing, Jon Snow: alcohol poisoning is bad for you.

-

... Ygritte reconfirming that Jon basically wildling proposed to her, even accidentally and I spent five minutes staring into space on a mental tangent. Modern AU, the boys are at a pub, and Sam is nervous about proposing to Gilly, and Jon's not being much help, he's a few beers in and his advice is all "just do it." Sam's all "but how???" So Jon gets up, "like this," he says, steps over to a young lady nearby, grabs her attention, drops to his knees and proposes to her. She pauses, then "oh my gosh yes!" And the entire pub breaks into cheers. Someone was filming unrelated tiktok shit and the clip of the "proposal" goes viral. Meanwhile, Ygritte is introducing herself to Jon and joining his table because there's a bloke she's trying to avoid lurking elsewhere in the pub. Shenanigans, misunderstanding, and friendships ensue. Several years later, Jon proposes in the same pub but for realsies. Sam managed to propose to Gilly by accident while he was attempting to explain the Jon/Ygritte proposal that has lead to their fake-dating rom-com.

Sorry, super tired tonight. Focusing, Let's Go!

(Legit though, Book!Ygritte ignoring Jon's clear attempts to shut that shit down in the previous chapter really do colour this relationship in a bad light, unfortunately, between the canon accidental proposal and the sheer number of times I've seen this same/similar set up in someone chasing someone else to the point of stalking and having it framed as romantic by the narrative, especially by male writers who seem to have a secret to desire to be considered that desirable no matter how much of a piece of trash they are or how often they (their character) reject affection it is still offered to them (their character), to (by proxy) live out the fantasy of someone wanting them no matter how they behave because they can't just contextualise being desired in a normal or healthy way... where was I going with this? ... oh right: I've seen this relationship redflag played for laughs so often it's become background noise which is perhaps the most terrifying thing about it as a recurring trope.)

... Focusing for realsies, Let's Go!

I have no choice, he'd told himself the first time, when she slipped beneath his sleeping skins. ... A part, he tried to remind himself afterward. I'm playing a part.

yeah, see, the problem with written word is that there's only so much context regarding tone.

I could honestly read this internal dialogue as either "Jon's trying to cope with being coerced into sex he genuinely didn't want, attempting to justify and rationalise what happened so he doesn't have to face the idea that he was raped" or "Jon's looking for excuses to justify doing it, because he genuinely wanted to, but he didn't want to admit that he had abandoned his oaths so readily when he's spent so much of his life convinced he wouldn't be swayed by sexual interest."

Cause on the one hand: this series doesn't shy away from various form of sexual abuse, but on the other hand, I have way too often seen this type of scenario written in basically the same way, and the author thinking it is genuinely healthy and romantic.

Which one did GRRM mean? I don't know and it bothers me.

... Ah, and there's "you know nothing Jon Snow" back for sex joke meme purposes.

...teenage hormones, the true foe of the Stark household.

... Arson Iceaxe sounds like the online handle of a 12 year old edgelord.

... and meme'd again. Is this the chapter where GRRM subconsciously sensed "you know nothing, Jon Snow" would one day become a meme? should I add it to the drinking game list, do you think? things I add to the list seem to bugger off more quickly once they're on... except for Lemons in that one Arya chapter... (I've collated the list at the bottom of the post.)

"- There are hundreds o' caves in these hills, and deep down they all connect. There's even a way under your wall. Gorne's way."

Oh? And will that be playing a role at a later date, or is this just more flavour text?

"The way under the Wall was lost as well?" "Some have searched for it. The that go too deep find Gendel's children, and Gendel's children are always hungry. (...) There's naught to east in the dark but flesh."

Cave cannibals. awesome. I think I saw that episode of Supernatural. Oh but legit, Cave Cannibals would be so terrifying. Like that movie, The Descent? I think it was called.

🎶Secret Tunnel🎶Secret Tunnel🎶Under the ice Wall🎶secret secret secret secret tunnel!🎶 uhhh, then it goes... uhmmm... oh right 🎶AND DIEEEEEEE🎶

"He's of my village. You know nothing, Jon Snow. A true man steals a woman from afar, t' strengthen the clan. Women who bed brothers or fathers or clan kin offend the gods, and are cursed with weak and sickly children. Even monsters."

Wildlings and old gods not into incest, and understand the correlation between inbreeding and the genetic degradation caused by inbreeding.

Yet more people smarter than Cersei and Jaime.

His guilt came back afterward, but weaker than before. If this is so wrong, he wondered, why did the gods make it feel so good?

I have a sinking feeling, I know which interpretation GRRM was going for.

*casually kicks GRRM out a window onto a safety net below* You live only because we still await the Winds of Winter.

Well, at least Jon feels some shame over breaking his oaths. Unlike Robb.

Drinking Meme Game:

"-There now, there now, yes, sweet, sweet. You know nothing, Jon Snow, but I can show you. -" ... "A dead end?" "You know nothing, Jon Snow, It went on and on and on. -" ... "- He died as well." "You know nothing, Jon Snow. Gendel did not die. -" ... "You're older than me." "Aye, and wiser. You know nothing, Jon Snow." ... "If you want to look, you have to show. You know nothing, Jon Snow." ... "You know nothing, Jon Snow. Noth-oh. Oh. OHHH." ... "He's of my village. You know nothing, Jon Snow. A true man steals a woman from afar, t' strengthen the clan. -" ... "- I thought you'd know to pluck me then for certain, but you didn't. You know nothing, Jon Snow." She gave him a shy smile. "You might be learning some, though."

You know nothing, Jon Snow = 8 x 🧋

When I was doing fieldwork in the southern Andes in Patagonia, being from the high country of NZ/Aotearoa, I wore the mountain heavy weather garb of my people (viz: Broad felt hat, full length caped oilskin duster raincoat, good big leather hill boots, and because I'm also assigned geologist, belt and holster with long handled wooden rockhammer that was long enough to be an iceaxe or short staff).

This got me some looks from the locals, but one of my field assistants asked for me to bring one of those coats for him next season.

Anyway, I spent a lot of time between fieldwork in the local big town of the Aysen region, Coyhaique, and for a brief few summers in the mid '90s I was sufficiently oftenly seen there that I was recognised by many of the locals as some form of Cryptid. In particular, there was a local street lurker, living rough, and he and I had essentially the same silhouette, as he also wore a long, many layered and battered oilskin coat. But he hat better boots, proper Gandalf grade boots. We were at 'we don't share a mutual langauge well enough to talk, but will give each other the head nod gesture from across the square because we share a Look' level of contact.

One time a shopkeeper was hassling him a bit (mostly good humouredly) and I happened to be passing on the other side of the street, and he added me to his rant, which from my bad spanish was something along the lines of 'Look out, there's more than one of us, there's the other, we could hex you if you don't pay us respect', so I fluffed up my coat and looked street wizardly with stern eye in mutual support.

Then we swirled off in our separate directions, long coats whirling dramatically in the wind.

you have to pretend to be a wizard sometimes, for your health. the obvious method is d&d, but you can also open the dishwasher on cold mornings and raise your arms dramatically as you're enveloped in the steam, or you can find a really good stick to walk around in the woods with, or you can run a bizarrely dedicated rp blog on tumblr. but it's an important component of human well being to occasionally pretend to be a wizard.

He was suffering from an illness unrelated to the stalking debacle, but it was being exacerbated by the drama. I last spoke to him in August of 2019, when he very kindly scanned some images of early EA album artwork for me. He was doing well.

NAC sorry I know this is intense but is Iceaxe still alive? I remember them saying they were suffering some kind of illness due to the stress of the whole stalker thing and that they were probably dying from it... just remembered it now and realised we've heard nothing from them in a while and couldn't help but wonder

I can honestly say I have no idea. I was kind of just hoping he'd moved on and let things go finally. Didn't consider the other option.
