deathless ♚ sentence meme

You will always fall in love, and it will always be like having your throat cut, just that fast.

You are going to break your promise. I understand.

You’re lonely too.

It will stop your breath, how cruel I can be.

I am a demanding creature. I am selfish and cruel and extremely unreasonable.

I am your servant.

I crawl at your feet; for before your love, your kisses, I am debased.

For you alone I will be weak.

I belong here, and you will not deny me.

I say these things, and the world listens.

I do not tolerate a world emptied of you. I have tried.

In the dark, I have pored over the loss of you like pale gold.

I will not let her speak because I love her, and when you love someone, you do not make them tell war stories.

I moved the earth and the water for you.

You will always run away with her.

You will always lose her.

You will always be a fool.

You will always be dead, in a city of ice, snow falling into your ear.

You have already done all of this and will do it again.

No one should be judged for loving more than they ought, only for loving not enough.

We look terrible to you, and severe, and you see our blood flying.

What we carry between us is hard-won, and we made it just as we wished it to be, just the color, just the shape.

There need never be any rules between us.

Let us be greedy together; let us hoard.

Do not leave me, swear that you will never leave me.

I am selfish. I am cruel. My mate cannot be less than I.

Sleep with fists closed and shoot straight.

I can’t abide a poor liar.

You look like a winter’s night. I could sleep inside the cold of you.

Oh, quit that. Blushing is for virgins and Christians.

Scold me; deny me. Tell me you want what you want and damn me forever. But don’t leave me.

Bad luck relies on absolutely perfect timing.

In his own country, Death can be kind.

What is the world but a boxing ring where fools and devils put up their fists?

Men die. It’s practically what they’re for.

I am no one; I am nothing.

Nothing in me was not made by you.

A revelation is always the end of something. It might even be cause for grief.

Just tell yourself a story that’ll satisfy you and pretend he told it.

Forever isn’t bright; it isn’t like that. Forever is cold and hard and final.

I savor bitterness - it is born of experience. It is the privilege of one who has truly lived.

If you want to kill yourself, do not use us as your knife.

What did I do wrong? Was I boring? Did I ignore you?

Don’t you dare speak to me like that.

I have worn nothing but blood and death for years.

I have fought all your battles for you, just as you asked me.

I have learned not to cry when I strangle a man.

I have learned to watch everything die.

I am not a little girl anymore, dazzled by your magic. It is my magic, now, too.

Are we not devils?

No one is now what they were before the war.

I have not seen you without your skin on.

Close up your head; your brain is getting loose.

We obsess. It’s in our nature.

I’ve a devil of a habit for being right.

In war you must always choose sides.

If you try to be a bridge laid down between them, they will tear you in half.

We are all dead. All equal. Broken and aimless and believing we are alive.

My old bones will follow yours soon enough.

It is better to be strong and cruel than to be fair.

I will see him with his skin off before I agree to fall in love.

After love, no one is what they were before.

I have survived, but I have not been spared.

In the space of one heartbeat to another I loved you and I was lost to you.

Frighten me, make me cry, only come back.

It’s not so bad, my darling. Being dead. It’s like being alive, only colder.

You’ll think it’s love, while he dines on your heart.

You will be so beautiful when you are old.

I cannot keep you and I cannot let you go.

You will live as you live in any world…with difficulty, and grief.

I look at you and it is like my throat being cut.

She said you’d come and I swore to eat your heart.

I still want to kiss you.

My heart is being cut in two. I cannot bear it.

What happens to anything beautiful?

I have to know, I have to or else you will just rule me until the end of everything because you know and I do not.

characters that go through hell yet still believe in the goodness of humanity, still hope for the best despite everything, refuse to let darkness consume them because someone somewhere is always going to be good are literally my favourite, because they give me that little hope too

Jon was not afraid of DEATH, but he did not want to die like that, trussed and bound and beheaded like a common brigand. If he must perish, let it be with a sword in his hand, fighting his father’s killers. He was no true Stark, had never been one… but he could die like one. Let them say that Eddard Stark had fathered  FOUR SONS,  not three.                                                                          WRITTEN BY COLLEEN

Daenerys Targaryen Appreciation Month: Triumph - Breaker of Chains “- I know that somewhere upon the grass, her dragons hatched, and so did she. I know she is proud. How not? What else was left her but pride? I know she is strong. How not? The Dothraki despise weakness. If Daenerys had been weak, she would have perished with Viserys. I know she is fierce. Astapor, Yunkai and Meereen are proof enough of that. She has survived assassins and conspiracies and fell sorceries, grieved for a brother and a husband and a son, trod the cities of the slavers to dust beneath her dainty sandaled feet.”

As king, he put great trust in his small council and his sisters, leaving much of the day-to-day governance of the realm to them…yet did not hesitate to take command when he found it necessary. Though he dealt harshly with rebels and traitors, he was open-handed with former foes who bent the knee.

positive lady characters meme brienne of tarth + strengths and flaws (asked by anonymous)

[coerulus]

khalasarkhaleesi:

Brienne was the sort of woman that Dany felt was desperately needed in Westeros. From what she had heard she was loyal perhaps almost to a fault. Dany was in short supply of loyalty from the people of Westeros. Essos was another matter but even then there had been difficulties but she had overcome them. She had broken the chains of slavery and empowered every man and woman to make their own choices, perhaps not always to the benefit of others unfortunately.

“What do you think of my dragons?” She asked, noticing that Brienne had followed her gaze to the sky. Everytime that she looked at them, Dany’s heart swelled with a mixture of pride, joy and sorrow in equal measure. They were a reminder of all she had gained and all she had lost.

“I am keenly familiar with loss but that is not uncommon in Essos.” She replied, basing her statement on what she knew best. Westeros was her birth rite but that did not make it so well known to her.

“If a woman were to murder twenty men to protect her child, would her purity be called into question?” Dany’s response was intended to encourage Brienne to think deeply. Issues of morality would always make for fascinating discussion and the sooner a woman understood the nature of the people around her, the easier she would find it to survive and prosper not merely in material riches but in spiritual too.

“What do you know of your history regarding my family Brienne? I know that many stories, will have been told about my father and Rhaegar but what of my brother and I?”

“Magnificent,” she breathed, glancing up at them again. It was hard not to. They drew the eye. “I’ve seen pictures, of course, and heard of them in songs, but it’s nothing like seeing the real thing. Everyone thought dragons to be extinct. What happened?” Brienne had heard it said that the reappearance of dragons signaled the return of magic to the world. She didn’t doubt that- she’d seen magic herself. As long as she and Daenerys were on the same side, she preferred dragons. 

“I wish I could tell you that Westeros was any better. Tarth, where I come from… it’s a beautiful island, peaceful and lush, but my father has lost nearly everyone. Even staying out of the war can’t keep you safe.” Once, in Evenfall Hall’s library, she’d read a book of philosophy that said to love others was only setting yourself up to get your heart broken. She had hated that book, and she’d pushed it as far back on the shelf as it would go. 

“Not if it were necessary. Some would use a noble cause as an excuse to commit atrocities.” Brienne bit her lip. “But I take your point, Your Grace. There are circumstances, if rare, when there is a justification for a deed that would otherwise be unthinkable.”

She shook her head. “I know very little. Only what everyone else knows about you. You lived in exile, you were sold to a Dothraki horse lord, but he died, and so did your brother. And you brought dragons back into the world… That’s about it.” 

[khalasarkhaleesi-blog]

The dragons weren’t just her children, they were the living hearts of those she had loved. She would be happy to speak of their names and who their namesakes were but she didn’t want to go into too many details regarding the circumstances that led to her children being born, certainly not with someone unknown to her, someone with the potential to become either for or friend. 

“My children were given to me as a gift on my wedding day and they were born in flames, as was I.” Dany felt that this was the most appropriate explanation to give and it removed some of the more distressing elements of the tale. No one but her would have cared about the loss of her son and the Kahl who had given him to her. 

“War truly touches us all. There can be no safety while unworthy hands compete for the throne that was destined for only one.” Dany empathised with the difficulties that the people would have suffered and she could understand the sorrow that Brienne’s father probably felt. Loss was something she was intimately familiar with. 

“I did not live in exile, I was forced into exile. I was protected as best as I could be by my brother but it was a terrible existence. We were punished for the crimes of my father, young children suffered because people we had never met assumed that we would drown the lands in blood. Do you find this to be fair?” Dany’s voice had grown an octave as her temper slowly reared it’s head. She was bitter about all that had happened and she wouldn’t be able to forgive the houses that had forced her into such misery; Baratheon, Lannister and Stark.
