There's something about fitz insisting and mentally reinforcing that the fool is a man, yet the fool is one of the only identities that he loves beloved as. He could have completely explained away his feelings as no-homo if he said that loved, say, amber, but nooooooo, he hates amber's guts. For a guy who doesn't want to be gay you sure do make yourself gay, fitz.

rote can’t even be properly categorized as bait because it’s NOT it’s really not just because it’s unrequited doesn’t make it bait the fool is textually really in love with his dumbbbbb fucking ass irrefutably but on a deeper level it’s also not bait because it’s NOT unrequited if you open your soul to receive the mandate of heaven and can read with your eyes real good so i don’t really know what to say or do or where to go or what’s going on really or where i am and i’m scared

i feel like most younger more beautiful queen theories have long since strayed away from common sense its brienne. its not sansa or marg because cersei thinks its them so it almost certainly isnt itd be like if they revealed stannis actually was azor ahai. i dont think ‘more beautiful’ was included just to dickride sansa/dany/arya/etc i think its an obvious reference to ‘brienne the beauty’ in a tricksy prophecy way that cersei won’t see coming because she does not even consider that ‘more beautiful’ might not be literal. she does not perceive brienne as a threat (even as brienne is taking jaime possibly to his death and at any rate away from her) and fixates on every pretty girl at court as her prophesied enemy in much the same way as she fixates on tyrion valonqar and doesnt think for a second it might be her other little brother

it’s funny how brienne truly does not even think about the incest thing at all. she’s fallen in love with this man who is in a like three decades long sexual relationship with his twin sister which started when they were small children and she knows all about it because he literally yaps about it to fucking everybody constantly and like that would take up a lot more mental space for me… personally…

a feast for crows really is baffling because somehow this 70 year old man wrote a book about climate change and gender dysphoria in 2005 and i don’t think he knows he did that.

[loveisbreathinghere]

i stand by the statement that anyone who believes brienne and tormund were meant to be, has a fundamental misunderstanding of brienne's character and doesn't actually like her.

a storm of swords is my favourite asoiaf book because it contains two of the best dynamics you can find in literature: sexually confusing roadtrip from hell (jaime chapters) and world’s worst throuple (davos chapters)

jaime lannister, kingslayer (17)

[irlplasticlamb]

jaime watched her eyes. “pretty eyes,” he thought, “and calm.”

i dislike people pretending jaime had zero interest in preventing mass murder.

“It was a hair net of fine-spun silver, the strands so thin and delicate the net seemed to weigh no more than a breath of air when Sansa took it in her fingers. Small gems were set wherever two strands crossed,”

sansa and tyrion's marriage is interesting from tyrion's perspective. he is canny enough to understand that she is only saying things to please and mollify him, but he also genuinely thinks that she is "so dutiful" that she would tell him what she prays for in her frequent visits to the sept (and he thinks she's excessively pious). as the reader we know she's praying for lannister annihilation and would never admit this out loud, but tyrion doesn't seem to really... get that sansa hates him and his family. even after everything, the multiple beatings, being terrorized by joffrey, the entire forced marriage, THE MURDER OF HER DEAR BELOVED DAD - he has a perception of her as a simple dutiful girl whose inner world consists of piety and supplication. that her prayers are a form of resistance and escape doesn't occur to him. he also exercises a very similar lack of understanding with shae - he thinks she's angry with him bc she lost her jewels and silks, not bc she is scared of her unstable position.
