#lannister clique

[15-lizards]

After your last post about Westeros sonas I am sooooo curious about yours please tell us more give us the goss. I wanna learn more about that Bolton girl she sounds insane (complimentary)

When anyone asks about my ocs/sonas my love for them grows ten times bigger 🫶

1. Cassana Bolton weirdest little freak ever. She is such a sweet and gentle girl but no one ever knows what the fuck she’s talking about. Got Autism On Lock even when she’s not speaking in prophecies and riddles. In my made up Westeros Roose is father of the year to her actually, he’s #1 Girl Dad and she idolizes him bc we love healthy father daughter relations here. Her prophecies come to her randomly and usually come true (catch it Melisandre) even if they are hard to decipher. People come to her from all over asking for their fortunes and fates, and they usually leave confused. One time she met a trader from Pentos and told him his future so he gave her a Little Valyrian as payment so now she just has a lemur on her wherever she goes. Roose brings her along when the war starts, and she gives Robb cryptic advice which he takes seriously bc he respects weird women, and Cat thinks she’s like a strange little pet (affectionate). She has a vision of the red wedding but Roose makes her keep it to herself and she kinda starts to slip a bit after that whoops

2. Magda Baratheon my most beloved. Youngest sister of the Baratheon bros just push the whole “finding Rhaegar a wife in Essos” scenario a few years. Bold and stubborn and classically Baratheon hard headed with a sharp whit and sharper tongue to cover up her Loneliness 💔😔 raised in the Red Keep after Robert took the throne but never really had any sort of parental figures. Robert didn’t care enough to raise her, Stannis was more like a strict and distant uncle who just made sure she was being properly primed for an eventual marriage, and Renly only thought about her occasionally, coming and giving her gifts and some attention before getting bored. Became very sociable to make up for this. Runs the red keep insane with her clique of other noble sons and daughters and all their youthful shenanigans (along with her three giant hounds she named after the conquerors dragons). She drives Cersei up the fucking wall but Tyrion thinks she’s the best. After the events of GOT, she goes to Renly but after he gets murked Stannis comes to take custody of her, eventually selling her north for a marriage alliance. Despises her husband, but he takes the threats beyond the wall seriously, and supplies men and arms, leading them to spend most of their time practically living there. She has to give birth at the fucking wall TWICE and they’re both daughters so her husband doesn’t really gaf. However Snow Patrol become her good friends and are the Fathers Who Stepped Up. Also I have a fucked up idea where something tragic happens and one of her daughters dies and she realizes it’s her husbands fault but he is just like we can have another kid and she goes batshit and stabs him before RIPPING HIS FUCKING THROAT OUT WITH HER TEETH because I just like the image of this lone, feral mother with blood dripping down her face like an animal as she kneels over the corpse of her husband while a bunch of nights watch men surround her in horror

3. Some more in the works in my brain: Benjen’s almost bastard daughter, Gregor’s two young and severely fucked up daughters, Dance era Tarth who’s homoeroticly loyal to Rhaenyra, a couple salt wives for Yara, and Lannister cousin who would’ve been a Maester if she was born a man (trans masc Lan incoming?)

"sexpest furry clique" Anon, pretty sure you said women weren't welcome in their guild. That was the gross behavior, right? Or women weren't welcome? Pretty sure someone said they have a female officer. If anyone wants to know the truth they can just ask them. Or does that person not count as a woman to you? And the whole "plagiarizing" a game thing is kinda dumb when we rp pixel fantasy barbies. No one is making money off of this. It's a hobby. Someone wants too play Jamie Lannister who fucking cares? If you don't want to RP a wow version of Assassin's Creed, don't rp with them. It's that simple. The GM Erps with their friends who are also officers? Is it the ERP bad or are GLs not allowed to erp with their friends who are also officers in the same guild? Do they bother others for sex that don't want that? Screenshot it, report it, and post the screenshots. Tbh, so far you come off as a hater and a bigot grasping for anything to hate on that guild. Am I wrong? :thinking:

The Ballad of Cersei Lannister

Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh! Down on your knees before the Queen! Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh! Down on your knees before the Queen!

Cersei Lannis was a popular bitch Hot bod, hot bro, cheer captain, plus she was rich That girl had everything till hiccup and hitch: Ellie Martell lost a leg in a wreck (Amputated!)

The nominations for Prom royalty came Our Cersei’s senior year and Queen was her claim Till gossip stirred the student body would name Ellie Martell Queen of the Prom (Pity vote!)

“Cersei,” her father said, “Life is a prom I know you won’t disappoint me and Mom...”

You taste the gold now, Cersei! You taste the crown! You thirst for blood from the roses in hand You spoil for sash and scepter, music to dance As they crown you queen of High School Land

(Check Cersei, choose Cersei, vote for Cersei Lannis-)

(-ter, Cersei, choose Cersei, vote for Cersei Lannis-)

So obsessed our Cersei near lost her mind To life un-prom-related Cersei was blind She shoved her squad, her clique, her boyfriend behind - Still Ellie had a hold on the lead (Poor, poor Ellie)

Soon Cersei’s sanity was hung by a thread Her BFFs proclaimed her socially dead Till then at last her boyfriend texted and said: “I’m taking Ellie to the senior prom” (Love, love, Ellie)

“Cersei,” her father said, “Why be so calm? There’s just no future for a princess at prom.”

You taste the gold now, Cersei! You taste the crown! You thirst for blood from the roses in hand You spoil for sash and scepter, music to dance As they crown you queen of High School Land 

Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh! Down on your knees before the Queen! Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh! Down on your knees before the Queen!

Some girls are rational but Cersei was not She stared in mirrors thinking one single thought: (Ellie) There’s seven reasons this crown’s not good as got (Jeyne, Selyse, Lysa, and Lyanna) And so the night of prom, mercy! (Delena, Melara) Thus went her plot:

P is for Delena drinking poisoned punch R is for Lysa dashed on a rock - crunch! “O” is what Jeyne said when Cersei bludgeoned her brains And M is for Lyanna’s marinated remains

But! But!

Q is for Melara, quiet, drowned in the well And U is for Selyse’s pieces, sent to the Hells But Es are for the easy way in five minutes tops A one-legged girl can bring an N for end by calling the cops (What a bitch)

You got your gold now, Cersei, you got your crown You got your blood on the roses in hand You donned the sash and scepter, doing a dance As you crowned you queen of High School Land!

Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh! (God save the Queen) Down on your knees before the queen (God save the Queen!) Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh! Down on your knees before the (oh! the queen of High School Land!)

They wrapped your wrists in silver, they took your crown They washed the blood from each finger and hand Into a tight straitjacket Small padded cell Screaming “I’m the queen of High School Land!”

At least in your head, you’re queen of High School Land!

Oh pity the dead, you’re queen of High School Land!

Top 5 cersei lannister moments lmao

Since a lot of her stans think she and jaime are the same person i'm gonna refer you to "Top 5 Jaime Lannister moments". 😂But like every scene in the books in which she is nowhere to be found is a Cersei classic, you go gurl, live your life as far away from me as possible.Thank you!

[yes-these-obsessions-are-healthy]

Does anyone else have constant thought experiment/What Ifs?/crossover daydream fantasy things where a bunch of characters from different franchises and series are put into a white room and you’re there as an ambassador to promote cross-universe/cultural understanding between those characters, or are you normal.

It’s not harem, it’s not therapy, it’s not intervention. It’s just..crossover anthropology..Psychology. I want to see how characters from different backgrounds, worlds, and such would interact with each other, *with* the only limit on their actions being that they are immortal in that time-space, and their lethal actions can cause pain and injury, but not permanent death. If they are a character with a curable disease, disability, or whatever, then another character could permanently heal them, though.

Something sort of like the CN bumpers where Johnny Bravo and Samurai Jack are doing laundry, or the whole CN cast is chilling in the movie theatre. I would love to see what cliques or rivalries would form out of a composite of, IDK, characters from all my favorite franchises when their immediate location-, context-based goals are removed.

My nerdy list would obviously include:

Game of Thrones (arguably the most normal group, but medieval.)

Mass Effect (Aliens! Sci fi tech!)

Dragon Age (Magic!)

Arcane (Steampunk and guns!)

Naruto (Ninjas!)

Witcher (Magic! Medieval shit!)

Dishonored (Magic! Assassins! Steampunk!)

Fallout (Tech! Sorta normal people!)

ATLA (Kids on an adventure! Special inner powers!)

Supernatural (Literal living myths! Demons! Two dudes that have already experienced a lot of meta themselves!)

My predictions?

Characters that would gravitate toward each other:

[GoT + Witcher]

[Arcane + Dishonored]

[Naruto + ATLA]

[Mass Effect + Dragon Age]

[Dragon Age + Witcher]

[Supernatural + Fallout]

Specific characters I see really getting along:

Original!Naruto (Naruto) & Aang (ATLA)…really Naruto and the whole Gaang. He’d love Appa after getting over how huge he is.

Geralt [Witcher] and Ned Stark [GoT]; Geralt and Iron Bull [Dragon Age]; Geralt and Corvo [Dishonored]

Solas [Dragon Age] and Javik [Mass Effect]. Hoooooooo boy

Hancock [Fallout 4] + [FREE SPACE] feels like a wild card. If anyone can get past him being a ghoul and doesn’t hurt anybody in his presence, he can get along with anyone.

Potentially Mr. House [F:NV] and Silco [Arcane], if Mr. House’s condescending attitude doesn’t trigger Silco too much. Also potentially Silco and Daud [Dishonored]

Heimerdinger [Arcane] and Pietro [Dishonored]

Morrigan (Dragon Age) and Yennefer (Witcher), but frenemies most definitely.

Tywin Lannister [GoT] and Emhyr var Emreis [Witcher]. Either it’s gonna be bosom buddies or they’ll do a “keep your enemies closer” sort of deal. Both will immediately sense the other as a BAMF and garner the other’s respect, at the very least.

Characters that would either avoid each other or trigger Hostility/Aggro if near each other:

Cersei [GoT] and Morrigan. Cersei and literally everyone that has a mouth, tbh.

Solas and Caesar [F:NV]. Cataclysmic. Do not. Do not. Do not. Do NOT—

Petyr Baelish [GoT] x Everyone. He is going to sour every other character’s default goodwill toward him eventually. He is gonna be the guy no one can stand but no one can get rid of. The more vocal, honest, blunt characters such as Naruto, Silco, Dean, and Geralt are gonna point out his bullshit whenever it comes up.

And that’s all I got because I may want this, but that doesn’t mean I know how characters would actually interact. I have only 3% creativity.

[warsofasoiaf]

This is probably a massive question masquerade as a small one, but what are major and likely changes to canon that comes about if Stannis is given Storm's End while Renly gets Dragonstone?

Oh, it’s not masquerading as anything, it straight up is a massive game-changer. Storm’s End factors so significantly into the Stannis plotline, which itself touches Eddard’s plot in AGOT and the Northern plot in ACOK.

First, the basics. Stannis receiving Storm’s End likely changes a good deal about Stannis, because he sees the direct cause-effect of his service to Robert being recognized and rewarded. This is no longer a man who smolders and grudge-seeks as we see him in the early novels, but one far more open and receptive to Robert and his clique, even if it’s likely that he still retains a personality much different than Robert’s. He’s likely still sore about Jaime retaining the White and likely still endeavors to end corruption in the court which will end in frustration when Robert permits it, though. Assuming his children situation still remains as normal (likely), the Red Priestess will likely still join his court, but he’d probably name Shireen the heir to Storm’s End citing the precedent of Argella. Renly on Dragonstone would probably need to have a castellan to take charge and start ferreting out loyalists to the Targaryen cause; Cortnay Penrose seems like a good choice. How Renly changes given the much more austere touches of Dragonstone is a good question. Would he still maintain his personality if the charmed lifestyle he led in Storm’s End isn’t quite so charmed? Without the knowledge of how he grew up, that is difficult to speculate.

When the plot happens, Stannis has much more resources to call on as with Jon Arryn, which could potentially mean an early discovery but that’s iffy. Baelish is still wanting to ensure that it can’t be discovered and he’s the ultimate culprit behind the Jon Arryn murder. However, even if Stannis retreats to Storm’s End just as he did to Dragonstone, he’s closer to King’s Landing and likely could be corresponded with quickly (Eddard would probably use couriers to get into contact if he distrusted Pycelle). Renly is still in court, so he’s likely maintaining the Tyrell connection and the Margaery plot probably proceeds as normal. 

Assuming Robert’s murder happens successfully, Stannis starts in a much stronger position and Renly in a much weaker one. With more resources, Stannis can make the incest much more public knowledge by sending out his riders yo far more towns and villages, eroding Lannister support with the rumors. Stannis, with the troops of the Stormlands at his disposal, is close to the capital and can credibly threaten Joffrey. With Robb marching south, that puts the Lannisters in a bad position; dealing with Robb in the north potentially means that Stannis marches north and puts himself toward Tywin’s rear. As Stannis would be in the field instead of on Dragonstone, and with Stannis possessing “the right” as Robb outlines at the end of AGOT, it’s possible that the Northern independence plotline doesn’t fire, since Stannis is acting the way a king should. Renly no longer has his bandwagon effect, so Mace might not move forward with declaring Renly as king, since it’s less likely to be seen as a sure bet. In that case, it’s a war between Stannis and the Lannisters for the most part, and if Robb rescues Edmure in OTL, he can march east and pen up Tywin while Stannis sieges the capital. If that happens, Stannis wins, Robb and Edmure swear fealty, and Mace probably pushes for Stannis to set aside Selyse for Margaery to sire a male heir. That hurts Varys’s plans, especially since likely as not Stannis won’t retain Varys as spymaster and would probably have him executed as a traitor. Doran’s plans wither on the vine as Stannis consolidates and makes the conditions less likely for Aegon VI’s invasion. And what that means with the Others is anyone’s guess.

Thanks for the question, Anon.

Creación de personajes: El asesino/a

Recordamos que el siguiente texto no ha sido redactado por el staff de ToL, solo lo hemos traducido para que pueda llegar a más personas. La autoría pertenece a @inky-duchess. Podéis leer el post original en su  tumblr así como en este mismo tumblr bajo la etiqueta “idioma original”.

AVISO: La siguiente lectura puede resultar algo espeluznante, pues se habla de asesinos y métodos de asesinato, si no quieres leer sobre estos temas, no cliques en seguir leyendo.

Se encuentran escritores que escriben sobre asesinatos tal vez tanto como asesinos en serie. O tal vez somos asesinos en serie. Quién sabe. El asesinato puede ser una de las herramientas más familiares para un escritor pero, en realidad, ¿cuánto sabemos acerca de escribir un asesinato? ¿Cuántos detalles podemos equivocarnos sin siquiera saberlo?

Metiéndose en la mente del Asesino

Cuando los personajes matan, a menudo ayuda a profundizar en el tipo de mentalidad que tienen. Como escritores, nos esforzamos por lograr la mayor precisión posible. Podríamos darle un arma al personaje A y hacer que mate al personaje B, sí, pero ¿es exacto? ¿Es el personaje B el tipo de persona que el personaje A está motivado a matar? ¿Está bien el arma? ¿Está mal la situación? Empecemos metiéndonos en la mente de nuestros asesinos.

Matar o no matar

Comenzamos como lo hacen los personajes. Con la opción de matar o no hacerlo. Cuando ves un drama policiale o un documentale de Netflix, probablemente escuches los términos de "asesinato premeditado" o "crimen pasional". Estas dos categorías suelen estar dictadas por el carácter de la persona que lo comete o por la situación.

Premeditación significa que el asesinato fue planeado. Puede reducirse a pensar en matar a alguien o escribir planes detallados con notas adhesivas codificadas por colores. Encontrarás personajes que son de una disposición más fría aterrizando en esta categoría o quizás alguien que busca venganza. El asesino a menudo usa un arma preseleccionada. Los personajes que planean con anticipación los asesinatos probablemente carezcan de empatía con su víctima o se sientan culpables por el crimen. Ejemplo: el asesinato de Dumbledore.

Crimen pasional estos asesinatos ocurren en una fracción de segundo cuando los personajes actúan en un momento de tensión emocional. Cualquier personaje puede actuar y matar (por accidente o intencionalmente) a alguien. El asesino a menudo utilizará armas de oportunidad, lo que encuentren más a mano. Este tipo de asesinatos pueden llevar a la culpa en el perpetrador después del hecho, dejando que los personajes muestren empatía. Ejemplo: La muerte de Shae a manos de Tryion Lannister.

Razones para matar

El motivo es uno de los temas más importantes a tratar cuando se describe a un asesino en una novela. El motivo encaja con el personaje e impulsa las acciones. La ganancia económica, la lujuria, la defensa y el poder son los principales motivos de los dos sexos. Pero existen diferencias en el tipo de asesino de un personaje según su género. Las mujeres tienen más probabilidades de caer en las categorías de motivos de; Amor, venganza, celos, lucro y ocultación de un secreto. Los hombres caen en las categorías de; venganza, ganancia económica, emoción y celos.

Denotando detalles

Los detalles no son más importantes en esta narrativa que después de que ha ocurrido el asesinato. Aquí podemos vislumbrar la psique del personaje y sus verdaderos sentimientos por la víctima. A continuación se muestran algunos detalles:

Un asesino que mutila a una víctima tiene poco respeto por la persona y si la mutilación ocurre en un área privada, puede denotar un trasfondo sexual.

Un asesino que cubre un cuerpo es aquel que muestra remordimiento o culpa o respeta la dignidad de su víctima.

Un asesino que elige colocar el cuerpo de su víctima en un lugar seguro o importante es aquel que respeta o se preocupa por la víctima y quiere que la encuentre alguien.

Métodos y personajes

El método se puede vincular con el tipo de persona que es el personaje. Se considera que los delitos que ocurren con armas de proyectiles, como pistolas, son más impersonales, ya que el asesino puede estar lejos de la víctima. Puede mostrar un desapego de la víctima, generalmente un crimen premeditado.

Los asesinatos provocados por apuñalamiento, golpiza o estrangulamiento a menudo se utilizan en crímenes pasionales debido a la cercanía entre víctima y asesino.

Batalla de los sexos

Los estudios encuentran que los hombres son más propensos a matar usando objetos contundentes, pistolas o sus manos para asesinar. Las mujeres, por otro lado, rara vez cometen asesinatos usando sus manos, prefiriendo armas como cuchillos, objetos contundentes y veneno. Las mujeres tienden a ser reactivas cuando asesinan, a menudo matan a alguien que las ha lastimado de alguna manera y es menos probable que maten a extraños.

Los detalles son importantes

El más mínimo detalle puede elevar un simple caso de asesinato a un bocado de la realidad. Al agregar detalles a la narrativa, puedes asegurarte de elegir la persona o el método adecuados.

La mayoría de los asesinos que matan apuñalando, se cortan en el proceso generalmente a lo largo de las palmas.

Se necesitan 2-3 minutos para que alguien estrangule a alguien.

No importa cuán cuidadoso sea tu asesino, dejará algún tipo de rastro en la escena del crimen.

Al disparar un arma a quemarropa, el asesino será salpicado de sangre. Cada portador de armas tendrá rastros de GSR (residuos de disparos) en su piel o topa, aunque puede eliminarse con agua y jabón.

Los estrangulamientos son delitos íntimos.

Un personaje que ataca a su víctima por detrás es aquel que no tiene el estómago ni la valentía para enfrentar a su víctima.

Asimismo, un personaje que se enfrenta a su víctima es aquel que o conoce a su víctima o no tiene reparos en hacer lo que está haciendo.

Un asesino que mata en exceso a una víctima, digamos que apuñala a una víctima más de cien veces cuando todo lo que se necesitaría es una o dos. Revela que un personaje actuó por rabia o quizás miedo, y que la víctima era cercana de su asesino.

Alguien tardará al menos (aproximadamente) 5 minutos en desangrarse.

Un cadáver comienza un ciclo de rigor mortis (rigidez de los músculos) 4-6 horas después de la muerte. Lividez (sedimentación de la sangre dentro del cuerpo) y descomposición donde se descompone el tejido graso del cuerpo (esta etapa ocurre entre 48 y 60 horas después de la muerte).

Ciertos medicamentos pueden afectar el ciclo de descomposición. La cocaína acelera el rigor mortis mientras que el monóxido de carbono puede ralentizarlo (además de hacer que el cuerpo se vuelva rosado).

Clique

Jaime Lannister, expelled from his school in Lannisport, goes to stay with his Uncle Gerion in Storm’s End. His next-door neighbour is a tall blonde teenage girl who grins at the Age of Dragons book series and figurines he collects, as well as the foam reproduction of Widow’s Wail. When he finds out Brienne is going to the same school as him, Jaime starts to think that Storm’s End Prep won’t be too bad. 

It’s worse.

Brienne is the captain of the swim team; her boyfriend, Renly, the most popular boy in school. Jaime’s good looks and charm don’t do him any good when he starts talking about dragons and model figures, and the Lannister name means nothing in the Stormlands. Jaime does make some friends: a shy boy named Samwell and a curly-haired lad called Jon, both of whom play Age of Dragons. They don’t care for Renly and the others. The feeling is mutual.

But far away from school, when it’s just 12 and 14 Ser Duncan Court, Jaime and Brienne are actually friends.

“We were king’s men, knights, and heroes . . . but some knights are dark and full of terror, my lady. War makes monsters of us all.” “Are you saying you are monsters?” “I am saying we are human. You are not the only one with wounds, Lady Brienne...”

I power-watched GoT Season 1

Why? Because before tomorrow, I wanted to remember what I loved about the show. Instead of liveblogging my flailing, I did it in my phone’s notes, but I thought I’d dump the whole season here (season 2 is also finished as of today). I to keep myself to three bullet points per episode, but failed most of the time. 

1x01

1. They are all SO YOUNG! Kit is a bb! Maisie! Sophie! RICHARD!

2. I still love to story of Jaime jumping off the cliffs at the Rock and his impression of Tywin. (And you wonder why I fell in love with them..)

3. The years have not lessened my dislike of Robert Baratheon.

1x02

1. Lannister family breakfasts give me joy. (GIVE ME A GOOD CLEAN DEATH ANY DAY OMG JAIME)

2. Michelle Fairley was a gift.

3. (Bonus - Theon being in the trusted council Cat tells about suspecting the Lannister’s in Bran’s attempted murder = ❤️❤️❤️)

4. JUSTICE FOR LADY 2K19! I am still so angry at everyone involved that I can feel my heart rate start increasing the second the scene by the river starts, and by the time we get to the scene in front of Robert, I have to make sure there’s nothing in my hand to throw. True story: the first time I watched this, I came closer than I ever have in my whole life to throwing an actual glass at a tv. After all this time, only a lifetime of self control and respect for the people who bought us our new tv keeps me from doing it now.

1x03

1. Love the Lannister vs Stark parenting parallels: Cersei doesn’t give terrible advice to her son... Machiavellian, but canny. Ned is a good dad too... trying to explain to Arya why Sansa acted the way she did...

2. Remember when the white walkers were scary and Old Nan was the best storyteller? Remember when there were so many great minor characters like her? Like Old Maester Aemon and Syrio Forel given so much good stuff to do with not a lot of screen time?

3. I may hate Robert, but my great respect for Mark Addy as an actor has only grown. That scene in Robert’s study with Robert and Barristan Selmy And Jaime is SO GOOD. Also Jaime talking about Aerys with that look on his face like he’s reliving it is always SO HAUNTING.

4. Bonus: remember when Dany had her OG clique? Irri and Jiqui and Doreah and Rhakaro and Jorah? I do. :(

1x04

1. Tyrion’s second visit to Winterfell is great. The smile on Bran’s face when he gets the plans for the saddle is SO PURE. Theon recommending Ros to Tyrion is less pure but still hilarious before we get to the serious business of explaining why Theon is in Winterfell.

2. Awwww Pyp And Grenn and Sam are such babies! Yay brotherhood.

3. Ned’s straightforwardness is so obviously going to get him killed it’s painful.

1x05

1. Sandor Clegane is more interesting to me this time around. Also Rory McCann is brilliant.

2. Maester Luwin And Bran talking with Theon practicing archery in the background makes my heart ache. “Famed for their skill at archery, navigation, and lovemaking.” Lol

3. That skull Arya hides in has to be Balerion. It looks even bigger than Drogon! And that’s Varys talking to... Illyrio? I don’t remember a lot I’m realizing.

4. I can’t resist cackling at Littlefinger and Varys sniping at each other and Aiden and Conleth PLAYING IT UP and clearly loving every second of it.

5. Bonus bonus: that scene between Cersei and Robert where they’re discussing strategy and potential scenarios for a Dothraki invasion is fascinating on so many levels. They hate and know each other so well and Lena and Mark play off each other brilliantly. And CERSEI IS SO VULNERABLE HERE. I think this might be one of the moments I fell in love with her, weird as that sounds.

6. Triple bonus: 😂 at Jaime knocking out his own man who stabbed Ned and robbed Jaime of his fair fight with The Warden of the North.

1x06

1. This episode gets a 10/10 for amount of time Theon and Robb spend in scenes together.

2. Having watched a lot of Ripper Street seeing Bronn for the first time is a whole lot of fun.

3. FIRE CANNOT KILL A DRAGON YES KHALEESI

1x07: remember when Dan and David used to let experienced writers co-write their eps? That was fun.

1. Tywin Lannister DRESSING HIS OWN STAG like a boss. I live for this intro scene and Charles Dance’s Tywin.

2. YOU WIN OR YOU DIE. And Cersei lived and died by those words. At least she’s consistent? Anyway, SO ICONIC.

3. Sam and Jon taking their vows at the weirwood North of the Wall with the snow swirling around them still sends a chill up my spine.

4. Bonus: all the Dothraki language in this episode is cool and Jason SELLS IT.

5. Bonus bonus: BETRAYAL! ...Peter, no...

1x08

1. Let’s hear it for quick thinking dead heroes. Septa Mordane And Syrio Forel saved those Stark girl’s’ lives.

2. Poor bb Sansa all getting used as a pawn by people who have power over her. Your day will come, my Queen in the North.

3. Today’s sexuality: Robb Stark saying “call the banners”

4. Bonus: Dany did not save those women from being assaulted in that village to burn down King’s Landing out of spite

1x09

1. Maester Aemon’s speech about love and duty is so great and it reminded me of when this show had THEMES and common plot threads that WORKED.

2. Shae and Bronn And Tyrion playing games gives me joy, until Tyrion tells the Tysha story and I’m not ok ever.

3. Robb was a smart commander and one who Got How Serious his responsibilities were and I just love him ok.

1x10

1. Catelyn being like “FIRST get your sisters back THEN kill them ALL” to Robb is peak Stark bloodthirst and I love it.

2. NOW AND ALWAYS followed by Theon saying something that sounds a lot like the wedding vows but with swords is giving me a LOT OF THROBB FEELS this time through.

3. Mirri Maz Duur is SO INTERESTING and her actress is GREAT and I want to know MORE ABOUT HER.

4. Jeor Mormont being like “White walkers are COMING do you think it matters who sits on the Iron Throne?” Is super funny now. Because d and d sure don’t agree with him.

5. BABY DRAGONS!!! SO CUTE!!! Shrieky, but cute.

The Lannisters were an old family, tracing their descent back to Lann the Clever, a trickster from the Age of Heroes who was no doubt as legendary as Bran the Builder, though far more beloved of singers and taletellers. In the songs, Lann was the fellow who winkled the Casterlys out of Casterly Rock with no weapon but his wits, and stole gold from the sun to brighten his curly hair.

4. Il tuo ragazzo lo sa che ci scriviamo?

So, episode 4, our first glimpse of actual, real life, blood and bones Edoardo Incanti and the actual beginning of most of Eva’s troubles. For a hot minute I thought I wouldn’t actually have much to say about this episode, then Silvia happened and I wrote more than half a page about her. Keep reading for a discussion of catwalks, the first time Filippo Sava is mentioned ever and the results for the Bechdel test!

post sex cuddles for Eva and Gio is doing a staring contest

I like a woman who knows how to exploit a man’s weaknesses, like pulling the hair on his legs

wow, Gio’s subconscious must be a really weird place if that’s what he dreams about when it’s about Eva, her saying she wants to be a group of strangers’ slut, how edifying

“Oh, everyone calls her that [Osana bin Laden]” *grandma’s voice comes out of nowhere: “so if everyone went and jumped off a cliff would you follow them”?* *a wild Niccolò Fares dressed as Marty McFly teleports himself there from 3.5 Ammucchiate to make his “I’m disappointed by your generalizations” face at Gio*

I mean, Eva, maybe telling Gio Sana told you to break up with him won’t make him like her more, but that’s just my opinion

“Va bene, grazie, grazie mille, ciao, fantastico” Eva, that’s not how you pretend you’re not hiding something, that’s how you talk to the dentist’s secretary on the phone when you make an appointment

poor Gio, thrown out just in his underwear, no pants, no shoes, as if there wasn’t time to put them on at least when Eva could have simply gone to the bathroom and made a lot of noise to throw her mom off and let Gio leave with some dignity at least

I mean, that’s the guy who brings you crepes at 2 am Eva, you should treat him a bit better

“Oh God, Edoardo is here, don’t look” and all four of them look, like, C’MON!

I maintain that Edoardo/Giancarlo is cute, but nothing special, really, nothing worth having girls turn their heads for, especially when he snorts

that catwalk is nothing to turn your nose up at, tough

I was unsure about this for a bit because she doesn’t like that Gio doesn’t care that much about being widely accepted and considered cool at school, but Eva doesn’t care about being popular either, she simply wants positive female relationships with her peers, except that she was used to being one of the cool girls when she was friends with Laura, so some of that lingers

“Sometimes she reminds me of Cersei Lannister” only sometimes, Silvia?

Marti is wearing his blue jacket 😭

“Do you know a ‘Giulia Med’ on Instagram?” is this LudoBesse trying to plant some kind of Julian Dahl??? OMG

Eva laughs when Marti says that there’s a girl stalking him, but then she gets called a stalker herself and her face goes “Nope. Nope.”

poor Gio, he really has to fish for that invitation to dinner

I can’t imagine the anxiety very message from Canegallo gives her, because Giovanni is right there, and we know from his dismissive comment on Rocco Martucci to Silvia the previous episode (and Eva probably has known it far longer) that he doesn’t understand trying to get in with the cool clique, so he won’t get it, he’ll just assume the worst

not that Canegallo helps out with that. I get, you’re cool, you’re popular, you can have any girl you want and Eva is sending you mixed signals, so you’re pursuing her… except is all of that true? No! We already know almost nobody knew him at the Easter party cause Eva had look for him for ages, he has to have gotten that Eva didn’t go up to him because she’s into him, so the only “mixed signal” is the likes on Instagram, which is something a hundred girls have probably done before, Eva’s answers to hi DMs are vague… really, dude, don’t you see you’re projecting your own attraction onto her?

And anyways, why the fuck are you acting like such a creep? You’re “excited” she’s stalking you? Why has every girl who’s come before Eva let you get away with shit like that? Why doesn’t your girlfriend teach you any better? Oh wait, yeah, because that’s just boys being boys 🙄🙄🙄

Gio senses there’s something off… so why would you think Eva doesn’t sense something is off with you when you keep stuff from her?

Gio 😀 laughing 😀 at 😀 Eva’s 😀 new 😀 friends 😀 after 😀 pestering 😀 her 😀 to 😀 get 😀 new 😀 ones 😀 for 😀 ages 😀 I’m fine, really

those last few lines, when sex is treated as a bargaining chip and Eva’s mean for withholding it and Gio is considered whipped because he keeps things Eva has asked him not to say for himself… 🤦🏻‍♀️

Silvia’s absolute adoration for Eva for having managed in a day what she’s been trying to do for years (I’d bet at least since 2nd year, when Edoardo probably became cool) and get an in with the cool people. Poor child, how much did being your sister’s sister hurt you?

Sana’s “You all follow really predictable mating rules.” and Eleonora’s hesitation before saying “fregne” have the same energy. Yet neither of them backs off.

“Grigliamo la testa a Rodi”/”Let’s grill Rodi’s head” top notch group chat name (considering all the flak “Le matte” got from Gio earlier)

looking like “sfigate allucinanti”, the worst catastrophe that could possibly befall a group of outcast-ish girls who are widely considered losers already, seeing as one is a cheating whore, one is fat, one is hysterical, one is the new girl and then there’s Sana

“Everybody livin the vida loca in this group, huh?” Eva, you hate weed. You went on a crusade against your boyfriend because

Poor Silvia, panicking already. Sana, she doesn’t “talk a lot” she’s ANXIOUS, c’mon girl, you’re smarter than that

re: Silvia talking a lot and Silvia more in general, I couldn’t help but think of this post and the article it links to. Silvia is torn between being a cool girl, the one everyone adores, so the one who gets (in her idealized picture of it) all the respect, attention and love she craves, and being low-maintenance because she’s probably been taught that careful politeness of proper, refined girls, who don’t make scenes, always look perfect and never ask for too much (which has probably something to do with her sister Francesca as well). It doesn’t come naturally to her, so she ends up trying way too hard, sounding needy and talking too much and all the other things (mostly) Sana tells her to stop doing in the first few episodes.

And because she wants to get Edoardo, Silvia does her best to change herself into the low-maintenance girl: she’s fine with him just visualizing her texts, she’s fine with just sex with no date beforehand or anything, she’s fine with not going to his place even though it means have has lo lend her her family’s house, she’s fine with maybe coming and with maybe making Edoardo come, she’s fine with not using a condom even though she’s not on contraception. She’s low maintenance. Then he says those awful thing to her and she probably snaps, understands on some level that she’s not fine, but represses it as fuck and works to be even less maintenance, and ever more perfect: she curbs another kind of hunger, the hunger for food and starts going down the eating disorders road, until she has another breakdown. We see too little of her in S2 to gauge how she’s doing, but I hope the girls are helping her recover a bit, despite the fact that at the beginning they’re actually the ones who suggest toning herself down. ETA: this post is also kind of relevant to the work Silvia puts in to be attractive to Edoardo, in particular when it says “women are expected to aspire toward passivity while improving their bodies and minds for winning a sexual competition”.

Federica, on the other hand, is the exact opposite: she’s not afraid to take up space, physical or otherwise, she’s loud and unapologetic, she is hungry for food and for fun and for sex (see the spoon scene with Marti or the kiss to a stunned Chicco Rodi) and she’s not going to pretend she’s not to make people around her feel more comfortable; actually, she’s the one who most often makes people uncomfortable. It’s really good that Silvia has her and we never see Silvia complain about her like she does about Sana or Eva when they deviate from her ideal of who her friends should be.

So, after that rant, let’s go back to Fede leaving the girls speechless with her spiel about paying back the weed with sexual favors, which just proves the point I made above.

in the meantime, Eva lies unconvincingly to Gio, and I reiterate: Giovanni Garau con la U perché sei sardo, don’t you realize that if you can spot a lie in Eva’s words from the other side of Rome, she probably can spot your lies? So given how mad you get, how can you blame her for being angry and paranoid?

this is the catwalk episode, first the Villa guys outside school, everyone looking at them first, then just the girls squad minus Ele; now the girls, first down the deserted road (cause they’re not popular), then under Chicco Rodi’s and Canegallo’s watchful gaze

the disgusted look Eva gives Canegallo as soon as she gets in, good shit right there 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Sana surely draws attention to herself, which is not nice except that if she wasn’t so “unusual” she wouldn’t have caught Edoardo’s eye either and the girls wouldn’t have introduced themselves to him, so really, Silvia, shut up

ELEONORA VOLUNTARILY INTRODUCED HERSELF AND SHOOK EDOARDO’S HAND baby no (I mean, he’ll forget anyways, but for that exact reason honey, don’t)

Federico Canegallo laying it on thick from the very first moment, offering the girls salsicce and thank God Eva wasn’t alone or God knows what horrible, misogynistic pun he’d have made

WHO EVEN MAKES FRUIT PUNCH IN ITALY?

creepy Canegallo make another silent appearance cheering on Sara and Laura as they play beer pong so they can get drunker and drunker

the girls cheering on Silvia like it’s the final of the 2006 Football World Cup

aaaand creepy Canegallo being a creep

idk he just strikes me as a douche and rude and lewd so I just always find him creepy

oh, Fede, I know you’re just trying to be supportive, but girl, if your friend is uncertain about going with a boy or not, you should not push her! ffs, do they know nothing about consent? (Answering my own question: no!)

FILO! My lovely Filippo is calling! And Ele is all worried, rushing off and even leaving Eva alone, when we know she’d never do that if something wasn’t pretty seriously wrong… oh, Filo, what happened to you? I hope that Jack didn’t get hurt.

“You know, I mostly go out with my boyfriend.” a nice, natural, smooth way to throw that in, Eva.

Fede has her priorities straight: she drops the boy she was hoping to get the minute her friends need her, but she still goes and gets herself a kiss

Bechdel test: the episode passes the test. There’s the conversation outside school between Silvia and Eva then all the girls minus Eleonora get there and Sana roasts Silvia’s social media habits, but the rest of that scene is dominated by Edoardo and Federico, there’s the conversation between Eva and Eleonora as soon as they get to the party about Laura and Sara. Technically some parts of the conversation at the Baretto pass the test too, but it’s like two lines at a time (about the weed, about Silvia being talking too much), but 98% of that scene is dedicated to either the Villa guys, Edoardo or Fede’s friend who sells weed, plus there’s the phone chat between Eva and Gio.

This post is part of my complete series of meta about Skam Italia season 1.   If you’d like to read more of my thoughts about the other episodes, you can find the mastepost linked in the top bar on my blog under SKAMIT: EVA. Cheers!

That has been an issue I have constantly faced in this setting and would love to feel that I have that. Aside from that, I love some good drama plots so pile them on in for me!
