#tristifer botley

[lycorim]

Iron Islands naming conventions are soooo funny because on one hand you have the most viking-ass names that ever did exist you've got Stygg you've got Gelmarr you've got Harl Jorl Qarl you've got Ragnor. A good number of them overlap with Freefolk names (idk what to do with that information either). But then a small handful would better fit in a Jane Austen novel with how fucking posh they sound in isolation. This is a post about Tristifer Botley.

Kept meaning to post this and finally getting to it! Tris/Theon art I won in the 2023 round of @fandomtrumpshate. The lovely artist is Foxymoley (IG).

[gaycinema]

the asoiaf relapse has hit full force and instead of finishing any of my wips i wrote this<3 post-adwd with a smidgen of theon/tris botley because I love niche a pairing

Summary:

Theon learns that his father is dead whilst hanging by the wrists from the wall of Stannis Baratheon’s solar, heard faintly through his all-consuming pain during a conversation between his sister and the so-called king.

《"Lannister always pay their debts" Greyjoys forget their.》

a kraken isn't a lion

So Theon has a nightmarish reputation as a debtor

After another loan, Tristifer wondered one thing....

Tris: How much does he owe you?

Wex *sign* What do you mean "he owe you"? Nothing. I've given up hoping he'll pay me back my $200.

Tris: Where'd you get all that money?!

Wex: *sign* you'd have more if you didn't lend him all the time

Tris: well he's just asking for change.....

Wex: *sign* how much "change" did he ask you for?

Tris remembers the first time Theon asked him for a loan. When they were just boys and Theon didn't have enough money for gum..  Every year since then, Tris has had a "Theon's debts" column (which Theon himself insisted on saying that he would pay back his faithful friend one day) in his spreadsheet that he's never put together..... for all 11 years....

Tris: $7,568— DROWNING GOD. WHERE DID I GET THAT MONEY?

Wex: *sign* that's the point, you didn't get it, Theon did :D

Tris: Just like your 200$....

Ironborn Character Bracket

Welcome to the Ironborn Character Bracket where your ironborn faves face off against each other and you get to vote to pick the winner!

Quick FAQ under the Read More

How will this work?

Characters will face off against each other in a poll in pairs as shown in the bracket above. The winner of each pair will progress to the next round, until there is a final winner. Basically, like a regular single-elimination bracket. Voting will start on September 22, 2023 and each poll will run for one week. Once all round of 16 polls close, the quarter final polls will open within 24 hours and each of those will also run for one week. Rinse and repeat for the semifinal and final rounds. We encourage you to follow the blog to not miss any new polls!

Where are Theon and Asha?

We decided to leave them out for the sake of making this a little more interesting/exciting and less predictable. Let’s see who else y’all stan ❤

Only 16 contestants? Such a small bracket!

Yes, unfortunately there are not a lot of significant ironbron characters. We wanted a bracket that would break down nicely and evenly. So for one more round we’d need to go up to 32 characters, and while we could find 32 named ironborn characters, at some point it becomes a little arbitrary which name-only/single mention characters would be picked vs. not picked. We’re sorry if we’ve excluded your minor fave! Feel free to tell us who they are in an ask so we can take that into consideration next time.

Can I send in propaganda and such?

We won’t be posting propaganda under the polls, BUT feel free to send asks with propaganda, comments, thoughts, whatever, and we’ll publish them here for everyone to see!

I couldn’t help but notice that Arianne Martell and Asha Greyjoy have a lot in common and are pretty much foils of each other’s. My question is if they met do you think they’d get along maybe even become friends?

I think it’s important to remember that Asha and Arianne still come from extremely different cultural and personal backgrounds. Asha is extremely comfortable with a weapon in hand and on the deck of a ship as its captain; Arianne has relationships of varying degrees of closeness with her martially trained cousins and a firm friendship with Garin of the Rhoynar orphans, but she’s certainly no warrior or sailor herself. (And this is without getting into the wholly separate politico-cultural histories of the ironborn and the Dornish.) Asha seems to show little interest in marriage, especially the sort of diplomatic matches Westerosi aristocratic women are often subject to (embodied in her rejection of Tristifer Botley’s domestic vision for the two of them in favor of “adventures”); Arianne, by contrast, fully accepted that she would marry for political alliance (and specifically that she would not marry a countryman), and indeed seems set to use her hand in marriage as a way of advancing her political interests with the would-be Aegon VI. Asha also enjoyed - well, I wouldn’t call it affection from her father, but something like regard from Balon as a de facto son and heir; Arianne, by contrast, was forced by her father into an artificial rivalry with brother Quentyn, and came to believe that Doran neither loved her nor wanted her to succeed as Princess of Dorne.

I’m not saying these characters could never see eye to eye or even be friends. However, I think there is sometimes a gap between “the author is using these two characters to explore similar themes” and “these characters are similar and would be friends if they met”.

Close The Door And Come Here - AFfC The Kraken's Daughter (repost)

With Asha and The Reader, maybe the Ironborn aren't so bad after all? Theon Greyjoy! Go see your Mama! Does Tristifer Botley understand how anatomy works, or is he expecting a Kraken to show up with his dozen children? And, we get some meaty questions on Lady Stoneheart, the Targs, and why Dany gets so much fandom hate.

𝐋𝐀𝐃𝐘 𝐒𝐘𝐌 𝐁𝐎𝐓𝐋𝐄𝐘, twin of symond, only daughter. thirdborn.

TrisTheon + "so much has changed but I'm the same, yes I'm the same!"

They were boys together on Pyke - Theon remembered that well, even when he hadn't seen Tris in years, even hanging in Stannis' tower, even though it was Symond who had been Theon's agemate back then. But he still remembered, and Tris did too apparently, from the way his eyes stole quick glances at Theon across the campfires and on the long treck through the snow and the woods. By the time they hit seawater, Theon wanted to shake him a little, to say, "But you remember what I was like before. Don't give me those eyes, Botley, I know you remember, and I'm not really that different now." It's foolish - because of course he is different, probably they both are, but it doesn't really feel like it when Tris smiles at him, too warm for the start of winter. Improbably, infuriatingly, with Tris beside him, he feels almost like he did before, before any of it. It's a feeling he likes.

Watchful by VagrantWriter Rated: Teen And Up Audiences Words: 3931 Archive Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Category: M/M Characters: Theon Greyjoy/Tristifer Botley Summary: Asha sends Tris to watch after Theon. But Tris is only human, after all.

I bet we all wondered what it would be like for Theon if he had something like a loyal/friendly presence in Winterfell rather than be alone with his bad choices, and this is such a good exploration! Obviously, Theon doesn't really appreciate that in favor of projecting ALL of his issues and mistrust over the one ironborn that seems a soft target, but that only makes for a very fun hostile-until-it-isn't dynamic. The idea of having Tris sent by Asha to keep an eye on the failboat little brother is so good and makes for a really good parallel between the two - both willing to die in mission for someone who will never love them, and it makes the loyalty that forms between them even more satisfying as two people who feel both wrong/too soft for the islands but react very differently.

“Am I Ironborn?” Theon paced back towards the other man, treading over his own boot prints in the mud. Tris recoiled as he came within striking distance, but Theon didn’t strike him. Instead he grabbed Tris by his tunic and gave him a rough shake. “Am I us?”

Tris’s eyes were large as they met Theon’s, his lips drawn in. “Of course.”

Theon sought out the lie, but Tris didn’t have a face for concealing lies.
