⚡ A commission by @panicawa of Empress Daenerys from my fic The Stormborn and the Stormbringer! ⚡

[kentstoji]

yandere rhaegar targaryen who grew up shrouded in a blanket of melancholy, akin to the trauma from the great fire of summerhall, a tragedy that marked his birth. his mind remained consistently immersed in fantasy clouds. an attempt to distance himself from the demons haunting house targaryen.

he developed an appreciation for songs and literature. and so, the prophecies were presented to him.

his imaginative mind created scenarios based on the words that led aegon iv to perdition. and when he met you — the only daughter of jon arryn that come of age without succumbing to illness — his obsession with completing the song of ice and fire intensified.

you, on the other hand, only harbored the ambition to take care of your father and ensure the stability of house arryn.

i know that of all the worldbuilding spin off writing, this is probably the least profitable for authors to delve into, but i am super intrigued by fictional/fantasy religions and i would 100% buy worldbuilding books that are only about theology and religious practices (and religious architecture!)

the first things that comes to mind for me are the religions in ASOIAF, The Wicked Years, the Silt Verses, and The Story Must Be Told.

i want to read the seven-pointed-star! give me hymns to the drowned god! i need a lurlinist epic and a treatise on unionist doctrine!! I want to hold the actual siltverses and read an essay about the nature of The Story.

Karliene - Song of the Seven (english and spanish subs)

The Father's face is stern and strong, he sits and judges right from wrong. He weighs our lives, the short and long, and loves the little children.

The Mother gives the gift of life, and watches over every wife. Her gentle smile ends all strife, and she loves her little children.

The Warrior stands before the foe, protecting us where e'er we go. With sword and shield and spear and bow, he guards the little children.

The Crone is very wise and old, and sees our fates as they unfold. She lifts her lamp of shining gold to lead the little children.

The Smith, he labors day and night, to put the world of men to right. With hammer, plow, and fire bright, he builds for little children.

The Maiden dances through the sky, she lives in every lover's sigh. Her smiles teach the birds to fly, and gives dreams to little children.

The Seven Gods who made us all, are listening if we should call. So close your eyes, you shall not fall, they see you, little children. Just close your eyes, you shall not fall, they see you, little children.

I hate starting a show that's already finished, or has a lot more episodes than you've listened too, because it means that you constantly get spoilers whenever you look at the tumblr tag for the series

@ach1llean wishes for [ 15. ] sender takes over while receiver is giving themselves stitches, promising to handle it.

THE TREMOR TO HIS FINGERS WAS NEW ; miniscule and fortunately invisible to anyone who might not pay close attention and yet it sufficed for a rageful urge to bubble up in his chest , followed by a desire to repeatedly plunge the needle into that useless , cursed stump of an arm . had he still his right hand - oh , if only . he would have done away with these stitches and dressed the wound in minutes , good as new and ready to strike back . better even , he would have never suffered the cut to his side at all . a gash , bleeding but not deep enough to do serious harm , left by one of the minions of a creature that would haunt his nightmares forever now , Jaime was sure .

the way her throat had been cut from ear to ear , covered up yet visible enough for him to fear her head might just fall back . the point of a boney , long finger at him , her mouth opening in a silent order . and those eyes . . . those cold , dead eyes , staring at him from beyond the grave ; a place that was damp and dark and filled with dirt . a shiver ran through him , followed by a low cuss while he tried to place the needle again - a task made harder still , with the sole source of light being the campfire they had finally dared to build after a cowardly escape into the night . ( leaving Brienne behind . leaving Jaime with yet another failure . . . )

he looked up when a shadow blocked out the firelight and a hand reached for the needle . Loras , too , had discarded of his armour , bruised and tired but apparently not bleeding . small wonder ; it wasn't his head Catelyn Stark wanted to see removed . Jaime opened his mouth to protest . . . and thought better of it . he had built up enough muscle since his imprisonment to easily survive the wound ; his body once more strong and agile , albeit a little older , but if he butchered those stitches , he might as well ruin it all for himself . " you don't have to do that , you know . " still , Jaime Lannister wouldn't be Jaime Lannister if he could simply leave things be . and emerald eyes thus land on Loras , observant and questioning at the same time . why on earth was he here anyways ?

@inmydrcams sent: ❝ i have never felt close to another person. not since i was a child. ❞ ( tyene )

" that can certainly feel lonely at times, " lexa nods in understanding. often times she finds herself yearning for the the freedoms of her youth. before her shoulders weighed heavy with the burdens of the throne. as a leader of her people, she's surrounded by others, yet constantly feels an EMPTINESS. there are a select few the warrior trusts implicitly, but they are not always in close proximity. and during stretches of time where none present have her full confidence, the experience can prove to be quite isolating. " does it bother you? " lexa has found that some find comfort in solace. others, do not know how to navigate it. she believes she falls somewhere in between.

I like to believe (as does a large portion of the fandom) that Robert only had that "love" for Lyanna because she was a female version of Ned. With that in mind (and considering that Jon Arryn was the most important male figure in Ned's life), how would Robert behave himself with a daughter of Jon Arryn?

So yes! This is the return of Jon Arryn's daughter on this blog. I already mentioned that Rhaegar would be obsessed with her, merely motivated by the idea of ​​completing a prophecy.

I think Robert would see her as his first love. And perhaps, his last because she has a tendency to keep him in line.

She, despite having a sense of honor, would not be afraid to expose her claws and a sharp tongue, "So, you got a woman pregnant? You're lucky I won't make you marry her."

However, she forced him to take care of Mya.

"Don't be an cretin, Robert" Her eyes flickered with clear menace. "Go visit the girl and see if her mother will need anything."

(Jon learned that the best thing he could do was let his heiress rule. Otherwise, he himself was the target of severe criticism.)

And with that, we have Rhaegar Targaryen. Heir of the Seven Kingdoms, creating expectations and being miserably frustrated when he realized that the pleasant maiden of his delusions was a rigid and calculating woman.

@loreforged says ❝ one war ends, another begins. there is always someone fighting someone somewhere. ❞ / maege

THE ROPE BINDING HIS HANDS STILL ISN'T ENTIRELY CUSHY , despite it having been loosened already . it also is no longer tied to his feet , which is almost hospitable at this point . they , too , have switched the non - existent comforts of his cell with a seat at the long table in the center of the Great Hall of Mormont Keep ; a dark , intimidating place if there ever was one , but strangely warm despite the rain and light drizzle of snow crashing against the stone walls . the bears have caught themselves a kraken . and Maron finds some ironic comfort in their sigil not being a salmon .

he watches while a servant refills his horn with strong , black ale , glad that the old she - bear apparently has remembered that he , too , is highborn and not some lowely villain - and cants his head at her words . seemingly calm and unafraid , but also lacking any viciousness or intent to fight . the Greyjoy knows when he's lost . for now at least . . .

" and you believe I'm the one you should fight now , Lady Mormont ? " granted , she'd have every right . the Ironborn have reaped and pillaged along the shores of Bear Island for as long as people remembered - and Maron , too , had taken part in a few raids in his youth . but he has a feeling that the imprisonment of himself and his other three captains , along with the crew , has nothing to do with past crimes . " or do you merely mean to add me to Stannis Baratheon's growing collection of Greyjoys ? "

Katherine ( @malka-lisitsa ) ▌sent 64 for a starter.

"You're not Elena." The subtle expression which etched itself across Enzo's visage revealed, under no uncertain terms, that he was pleased by that fact. Briefly, his dark eyes looked up at the ceiling, then back to the brunette's face. "So, you must be Katherine, then." Interesting. With a short gesture to himself, he continued, "Lorenzo, but my friends call me Enzo. Wait, scratch that. I should say friend, singular. The rest are dead." A humorless grin flickered along Enzo's lips. "But Damon's proving a bit of a bore. Won't help me with the fact Aaron Whitmore's still alive since he's trying to be ' good ' for Elena." It might be amusing to wait and see how long that lasted. "Honestly, I'm not sure if I'll be able to remain amiable if anyone starts throwing the word forgiveness around, either." Drumming his fingers against his arm, he tacked on, "Forgiveness — the taste all but poisons my mouth."

This is the hardest thing for me to do on any social media website. I'm horrible at talking about myself unless it's in relation to one of my interests. Which, I'll briefly list below:

⛧ music

⛧ video games

⛧ creepy stuff/cryptids/ARGs

⛧ gardening/homesteading

⛧ crows

⛧ oddities/"vulturecore"

⛧ writing

⛧ photography

⛧ reading

I'm sure I have more I'll end up adding here eventually, but I can't ever think of many things I like right off the top of my head.

Call me Crow. I'm 31 y/o, trans, Demisexual, and my pronouns are he/him. I have two dogs, a cat, an opossum and a few chickens. I live on a 2 acre homestead in southern Appalachia. I practice conjure and rootwork that was taught to me by family and neighbors growing up. I love to forage and make my own herbal salves and tinctures, as well as canned items like preserves and jellies. I am a professional portrait and event photographer, and I love posting my work whenever I get the chance.

My favorite band is Coheed and Cambria, with Movements and Hot Mulligan following closely behind. I'm an old school emo kid, and I also listen to a lot of pop-punk, numetal, and post-hardcore. I also dive into j-rock and SOME Appalachian gothic, neotraditional country, bluegrass, and folk music. My tastes are a little all over the place and if it sounds good I'll probably like it.

I am a gamer, and my favorite game is a tie between Bloodborne and Pathologic 2. I have also been playing Destiny 2 since the launch of Destiny 1 in 2014, and I fall in and out of love with it every few weeks. Depends on what the content is giving me at that time. I also really like Minecraft and other comfy games like Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing. I'm a huge fan of horror games and I especially love the ones with deep and interesting lore and worldbuilding.

I'm a writer, and have been actively doing so since I was 11 years old. It’s more of a hobby for me than anything (plus imposter syndrome sucks). I have a world building project/RP that I've had going with a friend of mine for over a decade now. I love thinking of/writing new characters and short stories.

I'm really into creepy content. Cryptids, cosmic horror, ARGs, analog horror, and the occult. I've seen a lot of what there is to offer on YouTube, so I'm always open to suggestions on stuff that I may not have heard of. I also like to collect bones, antlers, and other oddities.

I'm a big reader, and I'm currently doing a 52 week book challenge for 2025. I usually read 2-3 books at a time for when my ADD says I need something different.

I am also autistic and was diagnosed as an adult (age 27). I also have relapsing/remitting MS; it affects my short term memory, vision, and balance, primarily. I also sometimes have some other cognitive issues (forgetting/flubbing words, names, etc.) I am on treatment for a few of the symptoms, but it does impact my daily life.

I think that's about it. Sorry for the wall of text, but I really don't know how else to format this.
