i’ve absorbed absolutely Nothing abt fefw despite all the teasers and everyone discussing & theorizing. i’m going in blind. i don’t even remember anyone’s name except leda. seteth is there? apparently? embodying by good friend shez by being completely clueless while walking into the main plot

“[fictional character] fucked up and should be held accountable” hey did you know that they’re fictional. so they actually can’t be held accountable. bc they are not real. and are tools for storytelling.

alicent not being able to fathom that everyone isn’t willing to abandon their kids like she is is sooooo tragic. her face when she realizes the one kid she didn’t raise grew up to be a good person…loving her kids fiercely but also resenting them bc they came from a marriage she was forced into

anyways. got was not a good adaptation of asoiaf even before the last two seasons. hotd at the very least seems to try to center the women from f&b instead of fridging them. jon stabbing dany was so dumb first targ woman to escape the abuse of her male relatives only to get killed by surprise nephew

hotd has its obvious faults but the volatile hatred for it due to centering the story around the injustices of misogyny & the way the targaryens historically disenfranchise their women is . hm! interesting.

thinking abt that time my wife and i were getting into the car & she said “imagine claude going gray & with glasses” & i just went “i cant” with the most tortured voice. it came from the soul. he’ll be too powerful middle aged. too handsome.
