"Im sad again, dont tell my boyfriend. It's not what he's made for. What was I made for?" is very rhaenyra ii Targaryen coded. I need that tiktok edit made babe. All 3 of her bfs are too used to her being happy and perfect. Her sad era is gonna hurt so bad.

ask and you shall receive, anon <3

“I’m sad again, dont tell my boyfriend…”

writing her sad era is kinda cathartic ngl, but slowly making progress on that arc so I can update it quicker once I return to it :)

hc time - rhaenyra and jaime would go see barbie and only barbie, arthur goes and sees barbenheimer, and rhaegar 100% says he’s gonna see barbie, but forgets to buy tickets so he only manages to go see oppenheimer with arthur and jon connington

ARIANNE MARTELL APPRECIATION WEEK 2022

Day 4 ➡ Personality Traits

Arianne is a very self-deprecating person who does not have a lot of confidence in her own intelligence (despite evidence to the contrary) and blames herself when things go wrong:

He rode headlong for the poleboat, his white cloak streaming behind him. Arianne Martell had never seen anything half so gallant, or half so stupid. "Noooo," she shrieked, but she had found her tongue too late. A crossbow thrummed, then another. Hotah bellowed a command. At such close range, the white knight's armor had as well been made of parchment. The first bolt punched right through his heavy oaken shield, pinning it to his shoulder. The second grazed his temple. A thrown spear took Ser Arys's mount in the flank, yet still the horse came on, staggering as he hit the gangplank. "No," some girl was shouting, some foolish little girl, "no, please, this was not supposed to happen." She could hear Myrcella shrieking too, her voice shrill with fear. - The Queenmaker, A Feast for Crows

~

Arianne missed Ser Arys too, more than she ever would have thought. He loved me madly, she told herself, yet I was never more than fond of him. I made use of him in my bed and in my plot, took his love and took his honor, gave him nothing but my body. In the end he could not live with what we’d done. Why else would her white knight have charged right into Areo Hotah’s longaxe, to die the way he did? I was a foolish willful girl, playing at the game of thrones like a drunkard rolling dice. - Arianne I, The Winds of Winter

~

That was troubling too. Ser Arys Oakheart had broken his vows for her, but it did not sound as if Jon Connington could be similarly swayed. Can I match such a man with words alone? - Arianne I, The Winds of Winter

Myles Toyne had been so full of life the last time Griff had left him, it was hard to accept that he was gone.

"Your father's lands are beautiful," Prince Rhaegar had said, standing right where Jon was standing now. And the boy he'd been had replied, "One day they will all be mine." As if that could impress a prince who was heir to the entire realm, from the Arbor to the Wall.

(Excuse the crappy picture)

Aegon VI ~ Hades:

God of the Dead, the Underworld, Riches and Metalls and the Darkness. Soo it's kinda the same like with Margaery, I wanted him to feature this edit and thought of a god who would fit him rather than who would fit Hades. But I think he is a good take (big surprise) because the emotions I feel towards him are pretty much the same as the one's I have regarding Hades. He seems to have got everything he needs to take over westeros, just as Hades seems powerful controlling Riches and Metalls. Yet in the end they are both only ruling the Dead. Aegon just seems so uterly doomed that he could be considered ruling only those who are already pronounced dead. Yet he still is a threat, though one we can already see loosing to those competing against him, just as Hades lost when he, Zeus and Poseidon split the earth between them. So I chose him because of him seeming doomed (although I really hope he's not) which reminds me of Hades.

I promise that's the last one who's that far fetched!

I'm pretty sure some people won't agree with my choosing, if so let me know your reasons...

“Do you hate me at times?” Jon found himself asking while Arthur prepared himself to go back to his rooms.

Arthur stopped in his tracks to look at Jon puzzled.

“Why on earth should I hate you?”

Because I’m not Elia. 

Because I’m the reason you’re breaking your vows every night. 

Because if I loved you enough I would have never asked you to do this.

Because even if you’re putting everything of yourself on the line for me you know I’ll always choose Rahegar first and then you. 

All of those things Jon thought of saying. But, if Arthur hadn’t come up with them himself, why give them to him? Jon was selfish enough to decide to keep those reasons for himself.

He shrugged.

“I always guessed it worked that way in every couple. It sure worked like that between my parents.”

Reassured Arthur reprised dressing and seemed thinking about Jon’s words.

“It is probably because most of the couple we know didn’t marry for love, it’ll probably create some resentment with time if two people aren’t compatible. Luckily that didn’t happen to us.”

“Yes, because we can’t marry,” Jon commented. He hadn’t wanted to make it sound as bitter as it came out, it just happened. Arthur stopped again and looked at him with such naked sweetness that Jon almost burst with love.

“My love, I told you hundreds of times: I’ll never resent you if you one day will decide to leave me to create your own family, you deserve it. And you’re the heir of your house.”

Jon huffed.

“There is no family I’ll ever want to make if you’re not in it,” he said. And Arthur rewarded him with one of his brightest smiles.

There were so many reasons why a family of their own had to remain a wishful dream: besides the fact that they were both men, there were Arthur’s vows as a king’s knight, and even if that had never happened Arthur would still have been the heir of House Dayne, one of the most powerful houses in Dorne, while Jon was the heir of a small house of landed knights in the Stormlands.

The only house they would have ever been able to made their own was the Red Keep; the only time they would have ever been able to steal for themselves was those short moments left from Arthur’s duties as a king’s guards and of Jon’s as First Hand of the King; the only kids they would have ever been able to raise were Viserys and Dany when they escaped Lyanna and Rahegar’s control.

“You’re been extremely pensive today,” Arthur noted once he was ready to go. 

“I know, I’m sorry. You get to relax so rarely and here I am ruining your breaks.”

“I wouldn’t say ruin exactly,” Arthur replied with a smirk before bending forward to deposit a cast kiss on Jon’s forehead. “Now I have to go though if there is something bothering you we can talk about it first thing in the morning. I’ll come to have breakfast with you, I promise,” he added before disappearing out of the door. 

Jon collapsed on the bed. Yes, things were complicated, but he had no idea what he had done in his life to deserve someone as incredible as Arthur Dayne.

"Myles Mooton was Prince Rhaegar's squire, and Richard Lonmouth after him. When they won their spurs, he knighted them himself, and they remained his close companions. Young Lord Connington was dear to the prince as well, but his oldest friend was Arthur Dayne."

3. the heartache - warren zevon

Shadows falling in the noonday sun Blue feeling to the maximum Look what happens when you love someone And they don't love you The heartache, the risk you run The chance you take when you love someone And the sorrow for the lonely one When the heartache comes

7. daddy, you’ve been on my mind - joan baez

I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down, don't get upset I am not pleading or saying, "I can't forget you" I do not walk the floor bowed down and bent but yet Daddy, you been on my mind Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts, they might be narrow Where you been don't bother me nor bring me down in sorrow It don't even matter who you're waking with tomorrow Daddy, you're just on my mind

8. ‘39 - queen

Your mother's eyes, from your eyes, cry to me Don't you hear my call though you're many years away Don't you hear me calling you Write your letters in the sand for the day I take your hand In the land that our grandchildren knew Don't you hear my call though you're many years away Don't you hear me calling you All your letters in the sand cannot heal me like your hand For my life, still ahead, pity me

And all of my friends wanna get into heaven And all I keep thinkin' is "I wish you were here" I heard that they been callin' me "The Great Depression" Rollin' and tumblin', breakin' my own heart again

Shimmy shimmy shake baby right in my blood stream I don't know what it was that got in my room. My ticker-tape heart broke and everything shook in here But I learned it could be worse.

10. like a stone - audioslave

And on I read until the day was gone; And I sat in regret of all the things I've done; For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged. In dreams until my death I will wander on. In your house I long to be; Room by room, patiently, I'll wait for you there like a stone. I'll wait for you there alone, alone.

11. blood makes noise - suzanne vega

But blood makes noise It's a ringing in my ear Blood makes noise And I can't really hear you In the thickening of fear

12. streets of philadelphia - bruce springsteen

I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone At night I could hear the blood in my veins It was just as black and whispering as the rain On the Streets of Philadelphia Ain't no angel gonna greet me It's just you and I my friend My clothes don't fit me no more I walked a thousand miles Just to slip this skin

13. eternal life - jeff buckley

Eternal life is now on my trail Got my red glitter coffin, man, just need one last nail While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names And as your fantasies are broken in two Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you? You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal, angel
