What other history ships do you sail? As a former history major, this is relevant to my interests.

FIRST CATEGORY: I have this statistical outlier of a ship with Tywin/Joanna (KILL ME NOW BECAUSE FEELINGS), like, I don't think it's possible for me to ship anything harder than that, that is the top of the chart, that is the Titanic, that is the biggest thing around. 

SECOND CATEGORY: Then there are a very select few other ships in various fandoms I have that are only a couple notches down from that Tywin/Joanna level (Jaime/Cersei ranks very, very high, for example). Most of my ships in this category are canon-compliant. 

THIRD CATEGORY: And then most other ships fall into the category of a minor paddle boat that makes for a pleasant afternoon out on the lake (or a nice hour on AO3), but I don't need to go out and buy that paddle boat and store it in my garage and pet it or anything. A few fandom multi-ships fall in this category for me.

FOURTH CATEGORY: And then everything else I care about as much as Tywin cares about people who aren't Lannisters. I just don't give a fuck. And for me, this last shipping category is a very large category, and it applies to most tv shows I watch and books I read. What are feelings?

If I were to make a shipping diagram, it would resemble the shape of the food pyramid.

So back to your question. 

I really love American history, more than any other history subject. I like the American Revolution, I like the Civil War, I like the period of Westward expansion, the railroads, all of the scientific discovery that happened in America, Prohibition, the Depression, the World Wars, I love all of those periods. 

And if there is a major American historical figure who had a really cool wife, say John and Abigail Adams, I probably ship them, they fall in the Third Category, I like it, it's entertaining, there are mild feelings and the smut in fanfic is often good. I would watch the movie or read the book/occasional fanfic. Also I might ship Lewis/Clark as my crack history pairing shhh.

So I guess, in terms of historical OTPs, it's whatever paddle boat is sitting on the dock and is convenient to me, but I'm not all crazy over it.

hmm, and they're not exactly historical and they're obviously not American, but I ship Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip really hard, like enough that they could move up into the bottom of the Second Category.

Let's do 1,2,&3 for ASoIaF, shall we?

oh dear

1) What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?

Let’s get it out of the way: Brienne/Hyle Hunt has never made and will never make any sense to me. even if you don’t like Jaime/Brienne, I cannot understand what there is to that ship. 

I’m not sure there are any others? Petyr/Sansa creeps me the fuck out, but I suppose that’s just the way of things in a queen-in-training narrative like that. As long as it ends in Littlefinger/Moon Door, I’m good. 

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?

Sort of answered this before, but I’m not generally a shipper of Starkcest, though certain terrible people on this site can make me doubt that once in a while.

Errr…I can’t think of any others? Then again it is 3:50 AM and I’m listening to filk music from 4000 miles away soooo

3. Any fandoms that don’t appeal to you?

Errr…there are certainly large chunks of the fandom. I find Cersei utterly fascinating in a morbid terrible yet brutally sympathetic way, but I feel the exact same about Tyrion. Which is why I wrote this post. Both sides can get rather…heated.

I mean, basically any part of the fandom that finds Gerold Dayne a more compelling character than Catelyn Stark. 

I don’t know - the entire fandom is a mess, tbh, but I’ve found a few of the best corners and hang there.

♕ am I too late for this? Also hey hello how have you been?

Hey, there! I've been procrastinating school work and drowning in fandom feels. So, you know, the usual. I'm a creature of habits. Everything good with you?

I'll accept this. Though I haven't written any recently. Mostly it's just dramatic tagging.

misterfalcon replied to your post: Garlan Tyrell

I never even considered Garlan may’ve murdered Joffrey, but I love this idea so much I might vomit.

 He's just TOO good that he can't possibly exist in Westeros without having done some nefarious deeds. It makes sense, though! It had to be a Tyrell and one that wasn't really on the radar-- Garlan was present at the meal, he is well regarded by his family no doubt, Loras certainly wasn't informed of the proceedings because he was a Kingsguard member and that'd put him in too much danger, Mace was clearly oblivious. It's a possibility that Olenna might have done it herself, but I doubt she'd 'dirty' her hands in such a manner.

 But Garlan is trusted, he's not noticed often, he plays the role of the relaxed, laid-back sort of dude well, and he's obviously dedicated to his family. He could have easily moved around a lot during the wedding feast, and slipping the poison in when it came time would have been little trouble for him, I think!

i don’t think dany’s ever mentioned the tullys re rebellion against her father? she called the starks/lannisters the “usurpers dogs” so perhaps since house tully didn’t have as strong a connection to the baratheons/lannisters shell be more receptive?

Definitely don't remember it either, so ... yeah what you said XD I think their current hatred of House Lannister is too good to waste. Dany has a very intense sense of justice but she can also be very pragmatic. I think she'd be foolish to not "tap that" as it were (lolol idk). But it would be hard to make Stark or Tully countenance a schism with the other, I feel? IDK she still has to come to terms with what Aerys did and, yano, how that makes her feel.

misterfalcon replied to your post: katurarifka replied to your post: fauxkaren... 

I don’t really think Dany will visit the Sins of the Fathers on the head of Edmure, however. He was…what, ten? when Robert Rebelled?

Yeah, but there's the principle of the thing, and also dynastic concerns. But I don't think they really are very strong in the case of House Tully for above reasons. Of course she has no reason to be very nice to them either, unless they can do something for her. They don't have a lot to offer right now.
