My hubby: youre gonna get sick of seeing cows and horses eventually

Loving the couch, the orange pillow, and the record player 👌

Thank uuuu. I cant wait to get my lil accent chairs and coffee table

[a-libra-writes]

weird hc requests?

Stuff explicitly against my rules + very creepy nsfw stuff that ive never written before and never will. Tho in my experience those people will just go to any blog and ask for it, they dont rlly care who answers. I just delete em when i get em.

And on a very harmless note some requests are just so overly detailed or so ... i dunno, short? Simple? that im not interested. Thats more of a "me" thing tho.

[a-libra-writes]

Went to my first Pride today!!! Dressed in lolita & baked in the Texas sun LOL. Talked to some v friendly people. It was a very cute and cozy, small local thing bc im out in the sticks. Couldnt stay for the drag show bc it was so hot! 😭 next year ill be smarter

I didnt think the tumblr app notifs could get even more borked but Here We Are

[a-libra-writes]

Hey Libra! I wanted to know your thoughts on the whole ‘Stannis is a misogynist’ argument, since he’s a loved figure on your page! I personally haven’t been able to see much of his personality in the books, seeing as I’m only on like chapter 13 of ACOK, but from what I’ve seen from him in the shows and books, he’s just… curt? And awkward? I would hardly say he shows anymore animosity towards women than he shows to men. I know people talk about his treatment of Selsye as proof of his sexism, but I’m really not sure. I’m sorry if this is a commonly asked question, but I wanted to know your stance since my love of Stannis stemmed from reading your fics about him!

mmm I think this idea stems from his treatment of both Gilly and Selyse. I'm def not an authority on his character or anything, just what I've observed and gathered:

Gilly - She's an "abomination" because she's the offspring of her father and sister, it doesn't matter that it was almost certainly against her will. In the book he speaks of her poorly: "Her own father got this child on her? We are well rid of her, then. I will not suffer such abominations here. This is not King's Landing".

I was surprised by this because the Westerosi belief that incest is an abomination before the gods - and yanno, it's gross, but Stannis himself is not a religious man. He could've just said it was gross but he has a totally zero tolerance here. He doesn't even entertain the fact it wasn't consensual. Which being Westerosi, maybe that doesn't matter at all... and of course he's disgusted by Cersei+Jaime and their kids. So shrug. Societal shames and taboos run deep.

Selyse - So now that I've read the books, I'm pretty annoyed with the show painting Selyse as "lol crazy woman" and little else. In the book she has a degree of cunning. It ain't much, but she and her men certainly have their own agenda and she specifically disagrees with Stannis and almost seems to work against him - if not her directly, her relatives and her queensmen certainly do. Selyse may be devoted to Melisandre and R'hllor, but she and Stannis have a clear dislike of each other, to the point where he doesn't even want her touching him. He refers to her as "woman" several times and when she holds onto his arm, he pointedly tells her to "stop clutching" him and tries to get out of her grasp.

Another big rift between them is her treatment of Shireen: Book!Seylse thinks her daughter is repulsive and wants nothing to do with her, while Stannis sees Shireen as his true heir. I think their personalities are wholly incompatible. It's a big shame; I rlly love Stannis so I wish we had some more on his marriage and why she was chosen (are Florents powerful in the Stormlands or something??) or at least I wish she had more character.

Between these two there's also a running theme of Stannis being uncomfortable with sex - any mention of it, consensual or otherwise. When Selyse is clutching him in that scene and he shoos her off, she's says, "Robert and Delena defiled our bed and laid a curse upon our union. This boy is the foul fruit of their fornications. Lift his shadow from my womb and I will bear you many trueborn sons, I know it. He is only one boy, born of your brother's lust and my cousin's shame." While he was indifferent to Gilly until the incest was mentioned, then he wanted nothing to do with her. This could be a coincidence, but I've seen several HCs of Stannis being very sex-repulsed and/or Ace, and I myself HC him as ace. So more food there.

Now!! Let's compare this to Melisandre. So in the books she's waaay more mysterious and creepy, at least to me. He takes her counsel seriously and often discusses matters with her. I'm one of the people who doesn't believe he's sleeping with her - she's an actual advisor, like Davos. I haven't finished a Dance with Dragons, but I'm excited to see her scenes. Even without reading that, it's pretty clear Stannis respects her. I'm not sure how people take away Stannis is a misogynist when Melisandre has such a high rank in his army. Lady Melisandre wore no crown, but every man there knew she was Stannis Baratheon's true queen, not the homely woman he had left to shiver at Eastwatch-By-The-Sea.

what’s your opinion on ppl who make asoiaf ocs? i rarely see them and i cant help but wonder if it’s like ‘taboo’ to make ocs for it 😳

I have like 30+ asoiaf OCs hahaha so i def like them. I assume you dont see em bc at least on tumblr, as far as i know, OCs for adult fantasy book series arent that common. I see it more in other types of fandoms.

Also it's your brain, YOU write and draw and moodboard all the OCs you want. Who cares what randos think

[a-libra-writes]

okay but the way stannis growls in pain (in his death scene in the show) as he leans up against a tree and then immediately goes back to normal when he's done had me fuckiNG SOBBING 😭😭😭

Seriously! 😭 i have a feeling he aint gonna make it to the end in the books but i bet he'll go out like a CHAMP
