current mood: reflecting on what it was like when I had to actively hide my R+L=J obsession because it was just a random theory and not remotely common knowledge

I’m already tired of hearing all the hate about Rhaegar looking too much like Viserys.

First of all, incest or not. Genetics are genetics. Believe it or not sometimes siblings look similar to one another *gasp.* And yes we hear in the books about how handsome, smart, strong, musically gifted, etc. Rhaegar was. But come on from the side profiles we get of Rhaegar. The man is nowhere NEAR ugly. I mean I for one sometimes I catch my side profile in the mirror and I have to look away before my eyes bleed. So lets all agree that he is not eye bleedingly hideous.

And secondly, can I just take a moment to somewhat put you in the shoes of a young Viserys? Prince Viserys got to experience 8 years of King’s Landing. He got to live in a palace with his mother father and older brother Rhaegar. Of course it wasn’t sunshine and rainbows but that’s a discussion for another day. Viserys knew Rhaegar. Viserys got to see him joust, play the harp, read, etc. Rhaegar was going to be the future king of Westeros. No doubt that Rhaegar was his role model. Have you ever seen a little sibling look up to their older sibling? They try to copy them constantly because they want to be just like them.

But alas, one thing leads to another and Viserys has to experience the deaths of both his parents and his heroic big brother. Plus he is exiled to a far away land with his newborn sister. How traumatizing would that be for a little boy? Now, I am not saying that Viserys would have been a good king. He grew up feeding on every lie he was told about the Usurper who stole his family’s crown. His own innocent, childish memories got twisted from years of yearning for revenge and power. Yet, a few of his memories still pull through unscathed. That being the memory of Rhaegar. Viserys mimicked his big brother’s appearance because deep down he still wanted to be like him; to be the king Rhaegar never could.

So in the end, what I am saying is that Rhaegar does not look like Viserys, Viserys looks like Rhaegar.

Am I the only one who is super ‘meh’ about the Jon/Dany side of that scene compared to actually seeing Rhaegar and Lyanna together.

as much as I like both Jon and Dany and to a lesser extent Jon/Dany, I am waaayyy more invested in other relationships on the show.  exe: I will flip my absolute shit if/when Arya and Gendry meet again :D

ok tbh can y'all like…chill. First off, Elia isn’t some poor, weak woman who would just crumble at the sight of losing her husband. She’s a strong snake woman who can handle herself and has a got damn strong mind. Furthermore, Rhaegar was a good dude. Class A in the respect department. He married Elia strictly because he had to, felt obligated. It’s unfortunate how one-sided the relationship was yah but it’s also just the way it was. She loved him, and he cared for her but didn’t truly love her. Do you know how dishonest that must’ve felt? And that’s just shitty. Anywho. It’s not like Rhaegar was like “ooooo Elia” and then immediately jumped ship to Lyanna. It was more like “wow so this is what love feels like crap well I’m married to a really good woman whom my mother set me up with what do I do” and you know what he didn’t do??? Cheat!!! He didn’t cheat on her!! He didn’t even divorce her; he annulled the marriage. He respected her enough for that. And there is beyond no way he would have just forgotten her and his children by her. Illegitimate, sure, but he wouldn’t have disowned them and left them for dead. No way. Rhaegar? Good man. Elia? Good woman. Lyanna? Good woman. It’s a complicated situation and yeah Elia got the shit end of it but for the love of all stop demonizing Lyanna and Rhaegar’s relationship.

By the time Teddy was eleven or so, his hair stopped changing with his mood, but it did change if he was in close contact with someone he had a strong emotional bond with. 

For example, when his godfather ran his hands through Teddy’s hair, it turned jet black and tangled immediately. When his grandmother kissed him goodnight, it greyed a little, just at the edges. Hermione’s hugs made his hair a little curlier, and any physical contact from a Weasley turned it bright red. 

The funny thing is, though, Victorie doesn’t make him blonde - his hair always turned pink around her. 

He is the most like his mother when he is madly in love.

I am 100% convinced that some slytherin students used charms to alter their appearance so that they could fight in the Battle of Hogwarts alongside their hufflepuff, ravenclaw, and gryffindor friends. For some of them, it was so they wouldn’t be mistaken for an enemy by their fellow classmates. For others, an effort to protect their identity from Death Eaters they may know: family, friends, loved ones. For all of them, though, it was so they could protect their home.
