i'm so enjoying seeing you reblog all these dany and jon posts and your tags are the best. i have all the feels with those two and honestly im a bit conflicted on shipping them but its good to see awesome bloggers like yourself shipping it and it makes it a bit more okay to have these feels. just wanted to share that with you.
Aww thank you for letting me know that.
I get why people wouldn’t ship them, or why it would give people pause, but…I don’t really care about what other people think about fictional characters.
To me it’s an incredible love story. George RR Martin said:
I’ve always agreed with William Faulkner—he said that the human heart in conflict with itself is the only thing worth writing about. I’ve always taken that as my guiding principle, and the rest is just set dressing. (x)
The story of Jon and Daenerys is such a fantastic way to explore that theme. They have both lived their lives with this all encompassing sense of Duty and Honor and now…now they are truly challenged with Love. What happens to duty and honor in the face of that? What happens when you start living for yourself instead of the world?
I’m excited to see where it goes.
Also…Jon’s stroke game is worth shipping in and of itself.
