I did meet some of the most insufferable people. But, they also met me.

Shane Madej

[viedhlaejandi]

Ah, and here they were again, the pragmatics of the alliance. He'd already made his opinions known. To him, marrying the Stark girl was still the wisest course. She was the elder sister, the true claim to the North lay with her, not with Snow and the poor girl he'd forced to marry her, and that claim would give them a much stronger position. The North was not much more fertile than the Iron Islands but there was more of it, they could find a way to make it work to solve their own food issues. They might even be able to claim some of the more fertile Riverlands since they had declared themselves subjects of the North when her brother was named King.

It had all been talked about and considered but the only assurances they had right now were words and Maron was right to doubt them. Starks had their honor but Lyarra was possibly the least honorable of them all. Out of necessity yes, but just because she would lament it did not mean she would not short them their due. "Marry her then. What she regained would also be yours to claim. The match is not beneath you and they do have resources we could use. The lumber alone would be enough to build a fleet a hundred times over. The land is more arable than ours and the climate not too green that our people would go soft. She could not withdraw her support or promises if she was tied to you." He takes a sip of his ale. As much as he has championed this as the clearest solution he knows it's not a suggestion Maron likes to hear. Vicmarr doesn't like it much either, he would prefer to not sell of the man he loves so dearly for land, ships and men. As always he wants Maron to have whatever he truly wants, and while he has his suspicions about where the two are heading, a purely political marriage he knows is not that. "Or alternatively, make her swear to the terms before a heart tree. She cannot break an oath made before their gods without dooming them all."

" YEAH , YEAH , YEAH , " A VALID POINT , DISMISSED WITH A CASUAL WAVE OF HIS HAND ; he shifts a little , feet propped on the table between them . water under the bridge , Aeron would say , and then smile , knowing that Pyke was nothing but water under bridges . he allows himself a sip of ale and promptly glares at Vic over the rim of his cup . " you personally annoy me right now . " not really . maybe a little .

he exhales sharply , briefly rubbing the bridge of his nose . " the longer all of this lasts , the more I'm starting to wonder how useful she really is for me . we might as well lose half our man fighting to get Winterfell back and be left with - what ? " it's a low whisper for now . an aftertaste , maybe . the subtle realisation that he is helping her get what's hers but . . . would she do the same for him ? and if so , how ? otherwise , why is he here ? for charity ? or because he truly does like her more than he cares to admit ?

Maron ( @azmenka ) said ❝ that sounds like a ‘ you ’ problem. ❞

Vicmarr's eyes rolled to ceiling, silent laughter shaking his shoulders. At lot of things were him problems weren't they? He didn't mind, it meant Maron relied on him, trusted him, and that consistently reaffirmed fact meant everything to him. He stood up and did a particularly ridiculous mix of a curtsy and low bow. " As my king commands."

Sansa ( @tymptir ) said ❛ i hope you brought something warmer than that. ❜

"I hope I did too." His tone is light and easy but the sentiment is real, even if that's not immediately obvious. He had thought he'd done a decent job preparing for being here for a longer stay but now he was not so such. He had never spent much time in the North, especially when it chose to live up to its reputation. He was seeing now that perhaps he had miscalculated just how cold it could be.

He wasn't too worried yet, be it via request or the iron price he'd get what he needed if his suspicions turned out true.

“I think of myself as a quiet blue object”

— Nate Pritts, from “Cataclysmic Variable System,” The American Poetry Review (vol. 46, no. 3, May/June 2017)

[viedhlaejandi]

Loras ( @ach1llean) said ❛ i shot them with an arrow in the arse. ❜

Vicmarr laughed and clapped Loras on the shoulder in approval. " You have excellent aim. I'm sad I didn't get to see it." The younger man was definitely growing on him, he was interesting and tougher than the average Reachman. The fact he was easy on the eyes didn't hurt either. "What did they do to deserve that cruel fate?"

updated my rules/directory page! it's not perfect but i added the content warning i use on aemond and aenaella's rules bc i realized how old and specific on the elryses the old one was which no longer makes sense. also i didn't have my newer blogs linked etc etc.

it's all basically the same + that content/dead dove warning and some added links

Maris ( @oharpyia ) asked ' in many a sad song, maidens forced to wed against their will throw themselves from tall towers to their deaths ... do you know of any i might find ? '

He laughs loudly, doubling over. " Oh don't worry, you won't have to settle for a tower, the Iron Isles have many scenic spots for you end it all from." He gestures with one arm out at the cabin and the world beyond. " If you like I can take you on a tour and try recommend one that suits your needs."

READER, WRITER, PROTAGONIST ,

a sentence starter prompts list comprised of quotes from omniscient reader's viewpoint by sing shong. please be advised that this list may involve topics including, but not limited to, murder, death, and violence. change verbiage as needed.

we are companions separated by life and death.

i remember the moment i read a novel for the first time.

it isn't important to read the letters. the important thing is where the letters lead you.

perhaps it was similar to learning about death. for the first time, i realized that something was finite.

if i am really a god then i am the most incompetent god in the world. the most helpless god in the whole world who knows everything but can't explain anything.

i believe in you more than the future that hasn't come yet.

ultimately, every human is their own writer.

helping someone who didn't want help can be a curse. however, some people can't ask for help despite needing help because they had never asked for it before.

what i am looking for is passion. i hope you have the passion to see the end of this damn story with me.

by the way, are you a couple?

tell me, you fool. if i continue to regress, will i ever get to meet you again?

[name]. can i hit you?

you will be my companion and you will see the end of the scenario.

the story won't end unless the reader gives up on the story.

i am an ordinary person with ordinary skills. but even so, this doesn't mean i can only do ordinary things.

i am [name]. and you shall die here.

get lost, [name].

this story is for just that one reader.

hey, just say that you like him. quickly.

there is no weight to sadness.

in the end, to every human being, the most precious thing is themselves. and you risk everything of yours always.

strangely, i've been craving something sweet lately. do you want to eat?

release your hand and get lost, you damn son of a bitch.

i have a companion already.

i always regretted about something in my life. however, my regret over the things i haven't done is way bigger than for those that i did do.

i don't know anything about the future. however, i do know this. you said that you want to save this world? it's the same for me too.

you are the world i wish to save.

you are like dough made by anyone while a god was carving him for a thousand days.

i might be a killer but i don't want to become a monster.

those who read more than fifty chapters of a boring novel aren't normal.

eat the soil, [name].

marry him? i'd rather kill myself.

it's my freedom to decide what i hear and what i remember. and i shall decide who i am.

i'm only good to people who are also dead. i'm sorry that we met when you are a living person. you should die soon and come back again.

justice, in most cases, is just something that is agreed upon by the majority.

don't you know that people are the most dangerous in an apocalypse?

i can kill all of them if i want. therefore, i can save all of them if i want.

it's been a while, [name]. you are still ugly.

i shall pray that you may continue to exist somewhere too.

you probably know this already, but i'm not a prophet. no, i am as far removed from such a being as you can get.

if you get a chance to run again, do you believe you can see it better the next time?

where do you plan to die alone?

why are you going so far to save me?

i have something i need to ask that fool.

it was a really great story. isn't that right? let's meet again, [name].

give me [name]. then i will spare you.

you are necessary for this world. i need you.

you will be killed by the person you love the most.

i won't give up on this life, so don't give up either.

don't worry. i'll do the rest.

everything has already been written, and at the same time, still being written.

even if i was a little bit less happy, i wanted to live longer.

we can save the world. you know that, right?

you always had to endure these moments all by yourself. fortunately, you aren't alone this time.

the fact that you can regress at any time means that death is meaningless.

i will decide my story.

perhaps you understood my heart more than anyone else.

this version of you is the despair of the world itself.

i will never sacrifice myself again. i will not leave my companions behind.

it has always been once chance for me.

one's life should always be greater than a story written about them.

i'm giving you the opportunity to become its very first reader.

don't be an ass and just read it when i tell you to.

fine, fine. i'll definitely read it.

some stories can only begin anew after coming to its end.

you're the cowardly lion, obviously.

do you still believe that you can understand someone through just a few lines of text in a couple of chapters?

knowledge is never perfect.

how do you know all my weaknesses...?

why did you die for us over and over?

you're our son. that is all that matters.

i want to buy a really big house and live together with everyone.

a person who watched a certain story for a long time would eventually grow to resemble that story.

your salvation is cruel. like rescuing a drowning person with a blade, those saved by you are inflicted with an unhealable wound.

i always hated you. and regretted it, too? why did i write the story of someone like you with my own hands?
