tethered to the ground

[theyveclippedmywings]

two nights ago he held me in his arms so tightly i couldn't push down the feeling any longer, couldn't resist his pull, couldn't bear to think of regretting what might have been if i didn't do anything.

my lips grazed his for an instant, a split second, even less, before he pulled away from me, while still holding me tight. he murmured in my ears yet didn't let me go, and i didn't even think to cry, i just felt like i wanted to do it again if only he wished me to do so.

i hope - i yearn - i crave for him to kiss me next time.

M.L. - i guess i need his lips against mine to feel alive.

[theyveclippedmywings]

he was right: our bodies do fit well together. i want to feel his body behind mine again for hours. i want him to hold me tight the way he did ten minutes ago. but this time i'd want to find the nerve to bring my head up and kiss his soft lips. how many times in the last twenty-four hours have i had to fight that urge, that want, that craving, to just put my lips against his and know what it feels like. i yearn for a different aspect of our relationship, and though at times it seems as if he does too (singing "embrasse-moi quand tu voudras" and breathing loudly in my ears, his hands caressing my naked thigh or holding my ankle in between his fingertips) (it feels like more than what he is saying) (it feels like love), he never does more than this.

M.L. - if only for a glimpse of what could be if he let us

[theyveclippedmywings]

it's been a week of us calling each other every night and i feel closer to him than ever before. it feels as if us being forced not to see each other makes everything brighter and more, because there's nowhere for it to go. one hour every night, sometimes more, and he whispers in my ears and laughs at my voice and i want to close my eyes and hear him all night long. sometimes his voice goes so soft and sometimes he reveals things that i don't think he means to say, but he says them so tenderly that i yearn, forever more, to touch his skin. to see his smile. to kiss his lips.

M.L. - truth is i am touch-starved for his skin.

he told me he misses me and love bursts open my heart, floods my body, overwhelms me. and yet i can't help but wonder: does he miss me more than he misses her?

M.L. - the dreams shatter whenever he speaks her name

[theyveclippedmywings]

today he tickled me so much i couldn't breathe but because i tried to fight him off he climbed on top of me and held my wrists and for a second he stopped tickling me and just stayed there, his body weighing me down, his breath tickling my neck, and i could feel him fighting off a want, something akin to the one that i was fighting myself.

M.L. - there are moments when i second guess myself and think he does not want me, but this was not one of them.

He smiled, and his face was like the sun.

what she likes about this is the game of it all: every eye-contact makes her shiver, every touch is a spark, every text message brings a smile on her face. there are breaths tickling her neck that makes her wonder: does he want the same thing at all? she wants her body to be weighted down by his, she wants to feel him against her, for their skin to touch for a second and then withdraw, scared and ashamed of the want that's curled up in their stomach. she thinks, "is it wishful thinking or did he shiver with want just like i did?"

M.L. - she wants: what she can never have.

“As childish as it sounds, the winter time and the sight of freshly fallen snow always fill us with inexplicable joy. Perhaps because as children, we associated it with Christmas. I always imagine myself the hero who killed dragons, rescued virgins, and freed the world from evil. As we went out yesterday to find the prisoners, I felt like that little boy who wanted to save the world.”

The real tragedy of the book to show conversion is that the sand snakes actually wanted to crown Myrcella, not kill her.

See, Dorne is the only kingdom that treats women as if they’re equals. Women inherit lands and titles there. In fact, Doran actually has a daughter, Arienne, who leads the sand snakes in this plot. Oh, and she’s the crown princess of Dorne. Trystane is such a minor character.

They want to crown Myrcella, because according to Dornish law, she should have rightfully become the next ruler of Westeros instead of Tommen. Their revenge on Kings Landing isn’t to kill another Lannister, it’s literally to create a civil war against patriarchy. To make the Lannisters chose a side.

So by erasing Arienne, and making the sand snakes entire plot revolve around wanting to kill an innocent girl, the show really destroyed one of the best plot lines and kingdoms in the books.

What?!? This is so upsetting.

"I'm not hearing the aggressiveness I'd like to." His voice sounds hollow, like he's not convinced himself.
