worst kingsguard ever is a perpetually competitive title but tbh i think it would have to go to the shambling reanimated corpse of a serial rapist that just got sworn in

Fun ASOIAF fact!

While seemingly close in height, Robert Strong is actually a whole head shorter than Gregor Clegane!

i just don't think the eleven year old girl who bullies her baby sister or the nine year old girl who threw an orange at her in retaliation is evil. i'm starting to think maybe that weird seven foot tall man who never speaks is, though.

Ser Robert Strong, The Mute Monster

"Over them both loomed a giant in armor made of stone, but when he opened his visor, there was nothing inside but darkness and thick black blood"

My second take on the perfect white knight. In my first rendition, I wanted to play up the black comedy of having Gregor Clegane disappear, and another equally giant knight apparently appear from nowhere. This time around I decided to lean into the horror aspect, and see just how off-putting I could make a white knight.

I'm pretty happy with how it came out! I really went all out with the sharp shadows on the armour to make him look jagged and looming, and where I usually give the KG a cream coloured cloak, this one I went for a very cold grey. I also put about 3 times as much shading into his visor as normal to really give a horrific sense of deep darkness with any number of horrors within.

Is it possible that Robert Strong headless?

In the world of ice and fire, anything is possible.

However, (no shade to Symeon Star Eyes) one of the biggest advantages in combat is being able to see (it’s much harder to track people based on sound, especially if they’re moving fast in a fight), as you can avoid hits and land them on the enemy. Yes, Robert Strong is probably undead and presumably has high pain tolerance, but it’s still essential that he be able to tell friend from foe so he doesn’t accidentally kill the wrong person from Qyburn’s orders. Unless Qyburn has equipped him with some non-optic receptors to make up for loss of vision, he’s going to need eyes to see, and the easiest place to put eyes is inside a head. Thus, due to practical reasons, I believe Robert Strong has a head.

They come to Vegas chasing penny-ante dreams of high living, to feel like they're big-shots, like they're winners. You see that you and I are of a different stripe, don't you? We don't have to dream that we're important. We are.

SHUT UP! My dad is Robert Edwin House, President, CEO, and sole proprietor of the New Vegas Strip and he can tax you into poverty

Okay to further the argument: Ser Robert Strong/Gregor Clegane is both the worst Kingsguard and the pinnacle of the Kingsguard. He’s assaulted a Princess and murdered three members of the Royal Family (let’s leave aside the fact that the current Royal Family is not the same). He’s a serial killer. He is presented in Book One as the fundamental deconstructed truth of knighthood, the reason why the Hound exists and why Sandor can never be a knight. Gregor is the embodiment of the Lannister army in book 2. But then at the same time, he is the Kingsguard ideal— completely obedient, completely without thought, agency, interest, motivation, or qualm. Ser Gerold Hightower says that the Kingsguard are sworn to defend the king, not judge him. You know who will never judge the king? A brainless zombie. You know who can never object to a king’s order? A brainless zombie. You know who is really good at singlemindedly killing all physical threats?? A SEVEN FOOT TALL BRAINLESS ZOMBIE. Arys Oakheart almost got his charge killed because a hot girl told him to. Criston Cole started a civil war. Jaime Lannister killed the king to save the city. You know who’s not doing any of that? Robert Strong.

Visenya Targaryen had many legacies. Her son, Maegor the Cruel, bears a certain resemblance to Robert Strong, both being massive, strong, brutal, and cruel men with multiple wives, both probably the products of dark magic— which I find fitting because Robert Strong is the final essence of perhaps her most enduring legacy: the institution of the Kingsguard.

its crazy how foreman is like house but he doesnt want to be and yet always comes back to it, and chase is house but he can do it like a normal person and so he accepts it. and taub is house but only in relation to kutner being wilson. kutner is actually also like house, except hes so kind and trusting and he still manages to get house's results (& house hated seeing how kutner's repression worked out.) and thirteen isnt like house, but she can play by his rules and she does it well and because of that she's kind of a wilson-cuddy hybrid. and she's house's child. and chase is also house's child but he's the naive one. and amber was always house but more palatable for some and more intolerable for others all because she was a young woman and so house was more confident than she could hope to be. can anyone hear me in here
