The lips are warm after death, said Shelley. Who does not lie beside the beloved all night as the body cools? Who does not hold the body in her arms, frantic to bestow heat and reanimate the corpse? Who does not tell himself that this is but winter? In the morning surely the sun will come? How warm he is in my arms. How far from death. –– Jeanette Winterson

Arya Stark Month Day 15: romantic interests ↳ Jon, Arya, and death and the maiden. Death and the maiden is a trope that originates in European art, an erotic motif normally involving death in the form of a Grim Reaper, or a skeletal man clad in a black cloak, embracing or seizing a young maiden. This is a trope that can be applied to Jon Snow and Arya Stark’s relationship. One prominent death and the maiden relationship is that of Hades and Persephone, and we see echoes of this dynamic between Jon and Arya. [Follow up, in depth analysis here].

Day 23: Men in Arya’s life

I don’t think there is a man more important in Arya’s life than Jon. Arya literally thinks about Jon all the time. Jon was the person she loved more than anything at Winterfell. They were both the outsiders of the Stark children due to their Stark looks. Jon’s the one who gave Arya Needle which has been a key part of Arya’s story. Arya always thinks about Jon and wishes she could be with him again. Jon also thinks about Arya and wishes to see her again. Jon always inspired Arya to be herself. Not to be a conforming lady. Be the open free-spirited girl she is. They both may not be together but they might just be the most important characters to each other.

Arya Appreciation Month — Day 31: Ending Speculations - Arya as the Queen of Winter

The kennelmaster once told her that an animal takes after its master. (Sansa I, AGoT)

--

"I wish you were coming with us."

"Different roads sometimes lead to the same castle. Who knows?" (Jon II, AGoT?

--

"You," Ned said, kissing her lightly on the brow, "will marry a king and rule his castle, and your sons will be knights and princes and lords and, yes, perhaps even a High Septon."

Arya screwed up her face. "No," she said, "that's Sansa." (Eddard V, AGoT)

--

"King," croaked the raven. The bird flapped across the solar to land on Mormont's shoulder. "King," it said again, strutting back and forth.

"He likes that word," Jon said, smiling.

"An easy word to say. An easy word to like."

"King," the bird said again.

"I think he means for you to have a crown, my lord."

"The realm has three kings already, and that's two too many for my liking." Mormont stroked the raven under the beak with a finger, but all the while his eyes never left Jon Snow. (Jon I, ACoK)

--

"You're not scared?"

The girl smiled in a way that reminded Jon so much of his little sister that it almost broke his heart. "Let him be scared of me." The snowflakes were melting on her cheeks, but her hair was wrapped in a swirl of lace that Satin had found somewhere, and the snow had begun to collect there, giving her a frosty crown. Her cheeks were flushed and red, and her eyes sparkled. (Jon X, ADwD)

#my fave shot #all those horrible and traumatic things she witnessed #are so perfectly conveyed when she stares into the camera like that #its so brutal and devastating #in a way thats really reminiscent of the books #how arya watches and remembers every single detail #forcing us to look at it too #this is like the one brief moment they got arya’s arc on tv (via @gendrie)

“He was only her half brother, but still… with Robb and Bran and Rickon dead, Jon Snow was the only brother that remained to her. I am a bastard too now, just like him. Oh, it would be so sweet, to see him once again.“

You saw her beauty, but not the iron underneath.

Thank you, Maisie Williams, for your wonderful performance in the final season of Game of Thrones. I’ll always remember Arya Stark and how well you brought her to life, in this season and the ones that came before it. It was obvious you put absolutely everything you had into what you were given. I’ll miss you dearly in this role, but I also look forward to discovering what is next for you in your career. I wish you all the best and much success in your endeavours, and thank you once again!
