jaime x brienne

artists/videos

we're going to make (ok lbr i'm going to make) a jaime/brienne shipping video or two for the close the door podcast youtube (podcast tumblr podcast site podcast youtube). this is sort of prep for some later dunk and egg stuff i have in mind. i'm messaging artists to ask permission to use their stuff and making this post so people don't think i got hacked and started spamming

if you're an artist i regularly reblog and gush over and i haven't contacted you yet it's not because i don't love you and your stuff, it's because i haven't got to you yet so prepare to be bothered

[and if your answer is no, please do not feel any type of way about refusing permission. i am a creative type and i GET IT believe me]

[chickren]

[[clarification: these will be asoiaf focused videos so if you're an amazing artist who works primarily with the show characters your work is still beautiful and beloved and only being passed over because this is book stuff]]

Close The Door And Come Here - ADwD Tyrion VIII

yrion's coming back to himself and we couldn't be more relieved. Penny is actually great and maybe the fandom is just super misogynistic? You know it's a good chapter when you get to talk about pyroclastic flows.

catelyn’s name should at the minimum have a double t. you know it, I know it, everybody but george knows it

tumblr users will be like “i’ll be the first to admit i didn’t read anything you said, but here’s my take on it:”

i saw this post on reddit the other day that said jaime's arc in feast is about him becoming tywin and that's not even worth engaging with for just epically stupid levels of ignoring what's in the text but it got me thinking about how much of feast is jaime mining the carcass of tywin's existence for anything of value

jaime's an accidental and reluctant philosopher but there's this overt hand of george element to watching jaime pick through ilyn payne's rooms looking at the absolute wreck that devoted service to tywin made of ilyn's life and you have jaime there dragging ilyn out of his cave into the sunlight to try to give him a chance at living the sort of worthwhile life jaime imagines he once intended to live

there's nothing subtle in the way this relates to jaime's view of his own life.

then jaime's wandering through the crownlands and riverlands looking at the absolute decimation tywin left in his wake with no delusions about tywin's responsibility for it (or his own tbh) which makes it almost magical when jaime reaches down tywin's gullet into the guts of his dad's advice and legacy and looks at the gore he pulls out, weighing and evaluating what's worth using and what isn't. and then he's like well i can use this song as a weapon, i can use words as a weapon, i can weaponize the horror of tywin in a way that spares people the actual physical harm of tywin's favorite methods as much as i possibly can

i’m so glad that the iwtv fandom is just me and my mutuals and literally no one else. wouldn’t it be crazy if there were other people here. wouldn’t it be crazy if x.com was a real platform

the thing about being active in a fandom for like decades is that you can't escape from yourself if you feel me

Close The Door And Come Here - ADwD Reek III

Roose is on the loose, but he's suddenly a far more strategic guy than the vampire who curated the Red Wedding playlist. Poor Theon has to listen to everyone's inappropriate stories. I guess it's better than getting flayed?

[timetravellingtyrion]

no one prepared me for just how cartoonishly middle-schooler Jaime's hate of Brienne is in the early a storm of swords chapters. he hates her so he's going to refer to her exclusively as wench. he's doing everything in his power to annoy her. if she had pigtails he'd pull on them. he is literally already obsessed with her and doesn't realise it yet

sometimes u go to a ship’s ao3 page and the top 10 fics are like “what if these guys were 2 completely different guys but had the same actors’ faces and character names”
