right. your favorite character. who you've modded into an unrecognizable state. whose personality and motivations you've significantly altered on a fundamental level. that favorite character.

He has the most beautiful expression in his eyes sometimes, of utter, infinite goodness, and they are so limpid, so soft, so bright. His eyes are blue when he looks at the sky in the morning, and they are gray-brown at night, and dark when he bends over to kiss me. His eyes and his mouth are what I like best of his exterior. His smile is at once boyish and manly, frank and open and trust-worthy.

"no-one does anything on purpose. we all just sort of whoopsied our way into this war. half the characters are actively trying to leave the narrative. its all just such a joyless drudgery."

and that's why ormund is the GOAT and highlight of season 3. he was literally the only one playing the game of thrones and thus driving the plot forward. if it wasn’t for him trolling and rage-baiting and scheming and keeping daeron with him, the war would have been over in episode 2

its just such a baffling choice to have this whole war be basically a huge misunderstanding. sort of fucks with the dramatic tension. I say sort of............ anyways. us for the third season straight: ok now we're really past the point of no return. no fr this time

what this show needs is like. a Human Emotion Consultant who will gently hold their hands like they’re aliens who just arrived here and tell them things like “you see, usually when a king has only one child left, and she’s a hostage of an enemy queen, he will mention her daughter at least once in an entire season…” etc

its like. all these characters are related in some way. they're all family and we hardly ever get to feel it lol not giving rhaegon any type of relationship whatsoever despite them being the throne claimants was certainly a choice. just one example of many ofc

i don't think the general public got away feeling that ormund loved daeron at all i mean most of them didn't read james' interviews and the show made ormund into a white supremacist coded dragon hater so casuals think hes just the villain of the week

if u say so 🙏
