thinkin about ygritte as uber-wilding as ultra-wildling and jon falling in love not necessarily with her as a person out of context but with The wildlings... with freedom... because she is wholly representative of that and nothing else she IS The Wildling and three of his four book arcs almost entirely deal with the wildlings as like a theoretical concept as the foil culture to the repressive chivalric paradigm he keeps chafing against and aaaahhhhhhh goes fucking crazy
#like it is about being gay#ppl not treating the wildlings as if they will have any serious significance 😡😡😡😡#its like. the whole point! of JON!#there are.... many layers..... thinking thoughts#remember how the FIRST icefire meta post i made in 2019 when i was getting back into it was asserting that#the nights watch is inherently gay because its an intrinsically fragile boundary between society and freedom#that is predestined to break down and is simply not supported and taken for granted like it is literally#MELTABLE#even discounting the all male chaste order of no good criminals misfits and outcasts...#that was CRAZY of me#BUT ALSO A UTOPIA WHERE YOU GET TO BE NAMELESS!!!!!!! just remembered that and Jenny slate scream truly.#is jongritte queering heterosexuality /s#Unless
