[sophie-baek]

I’ve been in love. And it hurts, doesn’t it? But it doesn’t have to. Love doesn’t have to be bombs and tears and blood. Love can be peace. And it can be beautiful. And if you’re lucky enough to find somebody who lifts you up… even when you don’t deserve it… that’s where the light is. So, my wish for you tonight, ladies and gentlemen, is find someone who helps you see the light.

CREGAN STARK AND JACAERYS VELARYON In House of the Dragon, Season 2

Munkun’s True Telling says that Cregan and Jacaerys took a liking to each other, for the boy prince reminded the Lord of Winterfell of his own younger brother, who had died ten years before. They drank together, hunted together, trained together, and swore an oath of brotherhood, sealed in blood.

'I didn’t think it was possible to be an actor, but I do remember when I was a teenager, going to see Nolan’s film, Inception, three times at the cinema, which is so rare for me, but I loved it so much. It was so inspiring, and I don’t usually get inspired by film, that inspiration usually comes from elsewhere.' CHARLIE VICKERS // HOPEFUL ESCAPISM for Behind The Blinds (October 2024)

Sauron + Tears

[ringsofpowersource]

We see that Sauron is emotional in that scene — killing Celebrimbor is not easy for him. What does that tell us about his character?

It’s funny, it’s one of those things where I did the scene and I wasn’t expecting to get emotional. It’s not like it was a planned thing. It just happened. And then when you talk about it, you have to go back and try and unpack why, and sometimes there is no explanation for these things. But in thinking about why he might have been feeling like that, there’s a lot of different things. I think you do see him kill people in this show, and he often kills them quite matter of factly, let’s say. It’s different with Celebrimbor because he has been a partner in crime and someone [Sauron] really respects and someone he could have used.

There’s also this huge anger in himself in this moment that he’s been defeated because Celebrimbor has hidden these rings. Sauron needs the rings, yet Celebrimbor wants to die before he tells Sauron where these rings are. And Sauron says, “There are many ways of keeping you alive,” something like that. So he clearly wants to torture him until he finds out, but it’s just like the way Celebrimbor tells him that he’s now a slave to these creations. I think it probably hits home for Sauron, and he loses control and kills him. And I think that makes him really angry and upset, because it’s so un-Sauron to be out of control. It is more interesting to watch than him just dispatching everyone.
