"Looking at him, Alanna saw understanding. He knows, she thought. He knows about things like betrayal, and being afraid, and the looks on people's faces when they know you did something they thought impossible."
Tamora Pierce, “Lioness Rampant”
When I was little, I loved Alanna’s love interests! Now as I reread (and compare with the complete love given to aly/kel/daine) I cant stand it! The way Jon acts like he does her a favor by being with her. The way Liam acts condescending and hates and fears her magic, a huge part of her. Even George has his moments, though he admits when he takes advantage of her because her hands are full. I’m glad they’re the ending couple though, because all in all George respects her and loves her for all she is, and knows how to get the perfect balance of coddled and respected that Alanna craves. Why is it that I only notice these things now?
A list of the times Liam “Shang Dragon” Ironarm’s pursuit of Alanna the Lioness got on my nerves:
1. The entirety of the pursuit
2. Every single time he spoke to her
3. During Lioness Rampant
4) THE TIME WITH THE DRESS! NO REASON! NO DANGER, NO FEAR TO EXPLAIN IT, JUST HIM BEING MEAN FOR NO REASON AND NOT EVEN APOLOGIZING EVEN THOUGH HE CLEARLY REALIZED HE MESSED UP
Me when Alanna and Liam are getting it on:
"You go girl! You keep girl powering! Except with Liam. Stop. Plz."
Well...not that much longer...
Tortall Fancast
Liam Ironarm aka. "The Shang Dragon" : MIchael Fassbender
"His eyes were blue-green in a tan, pockmarked face. His hair was as copper as hers, clipped short. His nose had met with several hard objects. A moustache framed his sensual mouth; his jaw was heavy. He was in excellent fighting condition: broad shoulders, powerful chest, hard waist, heavily muscled limbs." - Lioness Rampant, pg.10
Lioness Rampant Dream Cast: Kevin McKidd (Grey's Anatomy, Rome, Kingdom of Heaven) as Liam Ironarm/the Shang Dragon.
Ginger? Check.
Appealing face? Check check.
Overall just a badass? Aye, aye.
Bonus points for the Scottish accent. My headcanon!Liam has a distinct brogue, as Tammy describes him as sounding like a Northerner.
