I had a dream a while ago that I was walking down a winding road in a forest in the middle of the night and there were several signs along the road. One of them had a picture of Dr house on it and it said “are you gay” and there were two buttons underneath labeled yes and no. And if you pressed the yes button a fire hose would spray at you

This is exactly what it looked like

george gets some shit sometimes about tyrion and jaime having a lot more redeemable qualities in juxtaposition with cersei but honestly one thing i really like about the way that cersei is written is that legitimately none of that negates her status as a victim of a system and misogynistic violence. it is just more interesting to me to think about the things her story touches on without the need to frame her as not an unequivocally bad person as if that is a requirement for her victimhood and for me to view these things as wrong and unjust

Waiting for everyone to get appropriately crossfaded before starting fuck marry kill cersei lannister/jaime lannister/tyrion lannister debate that subsumes the rest of the function

I love that Tyrion isn't a perfect victim. I love that he's angry, vindictive and hateful. I love that he's a real and raw depiction of complex trauma that doesn't shy away from showing the ugly reality of how much a person's mind is damaged after years and years of constant abuse.

I love the way viserys lingers in dany's pov chapters but in a sort of repressed way. naming her gold dragon viserion. using "wake the dragon" as a threat against slavers and traitors. she doesn't laugh for weeks after he dies. she didn't have a maester she had a brother. she clings to him telling her the starks and lannisters were the usurper's dogs. he's always there in everything she does even just a little bit and then fully resurfaces for the end of adwd in some pseudo horror/triumph vision to influence her again. "I loved you once" literally the saddest thing grrm has ever written.

The worst part about using a friend as a stepping stone in a game of political subterfuge / power gathering scheme is that you can only really do it once and then you have to build rapport with a whole new friend before you can do it again
