>"The Codds are not a well-regarded house among the ironborn; their men are thought to be thieves and cowards and their women wantons who practice incest with their fathers and brothers.">"After learning she has been wed by proxy to Erik Ironmaker, Asha thinks Erik, although vastly inferior to Ser Gerold Dayne, is at least better than Lucas Codd."
>>203274278
>>203274287Asha is incestpilled so she can't criticize anyone there
>"it was discovered that lord Bloodraven's's apartments in the tower of the hand and his manse in the city contained, besides a large collection of female clothing and apparel, 3,904 pornographic engravings, 11 pornographic tapestries, 165 pornographically carved daggers and knives, one mummer's cock, the hammer that killed Baelor Breakspear and 549 books—some of which were Blackfyreist works"What the hell did George mean by this?
>>203274294Bennis is so based

>>203274403
>>203274313>3,904 pornographic engravingsHe meant Bloodraven's apartments were fucking huge.

>>203274486
>>203274303Why did they cast an ugly actress for Yara in the show
>>203274518
>>203274533Because the D&D recognized Ironniggers for the ugly creatures they are, and painted them as such
>>203274539
>>203274533asha's not exactly a prize pig either. she's a hatchet-faced idiotborn with a huge beaky nose and a buzzcut

"They're not good at anything. I know the ironborn. They're bitter, angry little people. All they know how to do is steal things they can't build or grow themselves."
I'm tired of bitching and complaining so im gunna talk about some things I liked>Aegon was obviously great this season>I liked the subplot about his sobriquet (I also like that Aemond taught me that word so I can sound fancy). It comes together to humiliate him but that's fine, he should feel pretty bad right now, it's his lowest point>Aemond was still mostly kino >Rooks Rest was pretty good>Dragon Taming was fun>What we got of the dragons was good, especially my boi Sunfyre, of course I want more, but every second we got was great>Ulf was pretty funny, enjoyed him dabbing on Rhaenyra's dinner. I now act like Ulf at family dinners and demand family members bring me little birds and wine.>Speaking of, Silverwing looked cool as shit.>Larys and Aegon was pretty good>Even though it's a dogshit cliffhanger, taking it on it's own, the scene of the the armies moving out where the music does a medley between the various themes of the houses currently on screen was pretty cool.

>>203274618And he cried of the ships as eaglesThat circle fiercely and fly,And sweep the seas and strike the townsFrom Cyprus round to Skye.How swiftly and with perilThey gather all good things,The high horns of the forest beasts,Or the secret stones of kings."For Rome was given to rule the world,And gat of it little joy—But we, but we shall enjoy the world,The whole huge world a toy."Great wine like blood from Burgundy,Cloaks like the clouds from Tyre,And marble like solid moonlight,And gold like frozen fire."Smells that a man might swill in a cup,Stones that a man might eat,And the great smooth women like ivoryThat the Turks sell in the street."He sang the song of the thief of the world,And the gods that love the thief;And he yelled aloud at the cloister-yards,Where men go gathering grief.

>>203275288OH SHIT. I've got a couple of these (one with wildlings capering around trying to bait Jeor Mormont, another with some anonymous character from the Reach having to put up with similar shit from a crowd of babbling Dornishmen) but they're not on this system.

Jon Snow was my first crush and I still find him incredibly hot
>>203275688 Mine was Liam Neeson in Star Wars when I was like 5.
>>203274933They would be cooler if they could actually use krakens like Targaryens use dragons.
>>203275915Euron will, he’ll kill one of Danys dragons with them
>>203275999Trips confirm this will happen.
From the 1st episode of S2 all the way to GRRM's blogpost, it's been rough for Blacksissies. All their best characters are boring, dull, and now a soỳ meme in Daemon's case. The Greens are somehow more popular in the public's eye despite the biased writers.
Cute and canon!
What was GRRM Ranting about?
>>203276276
breakfast in bed with young alicent <3
>>203276299I love the title he chose for the blogpost.
How does Illyrio supply Varys with little birds if slavery is banned in Pentos?
>>203276299real bummed out he'll for sure behave from now on and we wont get more sourpuss writeups
>>203276326>this is what old and leprous Viserys I woke up to every morningIT'S NOT FAIR
>>203274727Gods that mustache was strong then
>>203276226Sounds like the writers are managing to make us feel like the people of king's landing and the reach do in the booksGood job???
>>203276453I for one am fully ready to blame the blacks for heleana's upcoming rope moment
>george can't finish winds because uhhh he's a leftist?why are chuds like this?
>>203276453More like 2 characters that haven't even appeared on screen (one cut completely) somehow won because of the writers in a indirect way.
>>203276590>spasmoids on twitter writing novels about how much they hate muh socialism
>>203274727I can't help but feel that this is a meme wherein Eustace's mustache grows larger in every panel.
>>203276590It's sorta true. Doesn't he himself seethe at another writer that had a full time job as like a engineer or something and the dude was able to write all his books in his free time and completely finish them before he ever even attempted to have them published?
>>203274571Agreed. The rat-faced pirate prince of my heart.
>>203276700That was literally self-criticism and a veiled admision that his "gardening" style of writing or whetever he calls it has failed miserably.
>>203275284Luv him, simple as.
>>203275284>>203276752What was the point of that character? I just remember him being edgy, cutting Myrcella and then disappearing.
>>203276590>muh boomerLook You can try to look at societal changes in the makro scale but stop blaming your nanna for you beeing an unemployed loser.
>>203276807>>203276752Absolute shitter, 100% untrustworthy but hot af, himbo in the land of lewd women and spicy foods
>>203276807I think he' there for contrast, just a colourful guy that looks untrustworthy and shines a light on how shit their whole plan is
>>203276807He's literally me, that's the point with him.
>>203276807the point is that Arianne is convinced she's smarter than her dad but she's a fucking retard who bungles her plan so badly it almost gets Myrcella killed
>>203276453Personally I'm starting to get a bit sick of dragons, how about you?
>>203276807I remember reading that George had written Oberyn as a parody of the roguish swashbuckler archetype like picrel, to mock it by giving Oberyn a shit death. But the fans loved Oberyn much to his surprise. So he doubled down on the concept in an attempt to make people see how cringe that idea is, and thus he wrote Darkstar. Problem is, I am of the night
>>203276937Aye, wondering what they're eating in the pit; I bet they don't have any of those new guild and gate taxes to deal with I might join a crowd of protesters this weekend, just see what happens
>>203276807Replacement Dayne for Edric to get Dawn into the story because Edric got shafted by the lack of a timeskip.
The human versions of the dragons are hot, fucking HOT!
>>203275072House BuckbreakerRegion: stormlandsWords: Bowed, bent, broken
>>203277039Are the genders correct? I have no idea what gender most of these dragons have.
>>203276994> a parody of the roguish swashbuckler archetype> fights with a spear
>>203277039I want Silverwing mommy gf
>>203277039Vhagar ugly and old af, can't wait for chad Caraxes to end her.
>>203276590Dude literally blamed the Ukraine conflict as a reason to not wright. It’s not that far off.
>>203277126Probably because had written the Martell to be represented by spears already. Doesn't matter, both do thrust damage
>>203277039Syrax is very slutty
>>203277039wow more lame ai shit, thanks
>>203277039Caraxes as a human should have a longer neck.
>>203277212He does but the image doesn't show that far down
>>203277153Starks have to be armed with tactical wolves and Tullys with combat fishes
>>203277039>sheepstealer is black >seasmoke is black >their dragonriders on the show are black What did AI mean by this?
>>203277198Kek
>>203277254>Starks have to be armed with tactical wolvesThey already are. And I'm sure if a guy smacked you with a dead trout in the face, it would hurt
>>203277039Some of them would make a hot couple with their riders.
>>203277301People already ship Aemond with the old granny Vhagar.
>>203277254>darkstar throws his sword into the sky>it enters orbit impaled in a huge meteorite that crashes on his enemies>Oberyn Teleports behind him and uses a spear to bring the sun itself down on darkstar

>>203277254
>>203276994I think Darkstar is just GRRM genuinely thinking>This character is so cool and badass!Keep in mind as well when he would have conceived Darkstar. The nature of character is very much at home in the 1990s and first half of the 2000s.
any youtubers that are not HBO shills?i used to think Preston wasn't but he showed his true colors in his last video
>>203278256I haven't seen a lot of them but, how about these guyshttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nfwe7HVOVAo
>>203276994That something he said or some fan theory? I think that would be widely known if GRRM had actually said it.
>>203274287>After learning she has been wed by proxyDid anyone else think when they read that Euron used a seal to represent her, it was an actual seal the animal and not like a piece with the Greyjoys symbol or whatever?
Why did the faith of the 7 in Essos?
>>203278576Yes. I read the books more than a decade ago but somehow I can remember this because it sounded absurd.
>>203278576is that NOT what it meant?
Casterly Rock in the books>A castle carved into and built ontop of a 2,100 feet high mountain(3 times taller than the Wall)Casterly Rock in the series>generic castle on some cliffs. It's a real shame we don't get to see the Westerlands at all in the series. The way that area is described particularly all those castles that are built into and ontop of existing gold mines, would have been really cool to see on screen.
>>203278612die out in Essos* fug
>>203278576>an actual seal the animalit's not?
>>203278682>>203278646>>203278630Actually yes I think it is, cause Asha jokes about Erik consummating the marriage. I'm wondering how fucking goofy that wedding would be with a fucking seal arf arfing all the time
>>203278576>Tris Botley said that the Crow’s Eye had used a seal to stand in for her at her wedding. “I hope Erik did not insist on a consummation,” she’d said.how is her line relevant if it's not an actual seal?t.esl
>>203278612Most of the Andals in Andalos proper fucked off to Westeros and the ones living along the coast of the shivering sea got genocided by the Freehold.
>>203278612>>203278674All the Andals (The Seven's chosen people) left

>My people. They where afraidBiggest chad moment of the series was him absolutely shit stomping Tywin while outnumbered 2 to 1 and also protecting the small folkThey did him so dirty
Would you?
>>203274101>We must write! GRRM has written.>HBO: What has GRRM... written?>He has written a critique of the show in his blog>HBO: Online?>He's written spoilers in the blog, brilliant.>HBO: Gods help us all>GRRM: It's time for the bitch writers to pay a price>HBO: And you conceded to this... this.. prank before consulting me or the showrunners! Instead of judgement you display impeteousness and DIMINISH us in the eyes of our viewer! ILL-CONCEITED! TRIFLING!
>>203278924Absolutely.>t. House Farwynd
>>203278855>Also do the Ironborn ever hunt seals for food?the ones on Lonely Light explicitly do, I imagine other Ironborn do too but it never comes up
>>203278917He got a happier ending at least with Roslin than many Bronn becoming Lord of Highgarden was dumb as shit though.
>>203278947>GRRM: It's time for the bitch writers to pay a priceThe IRON price.
>>203278966I think it mentions Ironborn wearing sealskin so they probably do eat it, since there's no reason to let good seal meat go to waste.
>>203278966>>203279004And clubbing seals seems like something the Ironborn would enjoy
The house that literally lives to just btfo ironborn. Balon rebellion made no sense
>>203278917>They did him so dirtyEven Robb did in the books. Little shit.
GRRM is in TG
>>203278735>Her bloodline status: non existent
>>203279186I wonder if GRRM watched the Big bang theory
How do you respond without sounding mad?
>>203279261"Get raped"
>>203279261The last three seasons of GoT made a great job at making me hate Sansa, and I never disliked her beforehand.
>>203279186>TG: GRRM in TG>GRRM: made sure to end Alicent's bloodline
>>203279384>>203279261I don't get what was the purpose of bringing the actor back for one scene just to make his character a joke.
>>203279394You can write bad things that happen to characters you like.
>>203275021>Asha and Darkstar marry and take the Iron ThroneIs this a better timeline than Bran the Broken?
>>203279502His favorite was Daemon and you know Daemon's ending
Why are the royces so based?>died defending his partners while literally fighting an other he fought it without any hesitation >his brother saved Catelyn and Brienne and died for them>father is lowkey one of the best fighters during the war of the five kings and is extremely honorable >the only unknown is the oldest
>>203277039>Seasmoke is blackfuck off, AI slop
>>203278924Absolutely.>t. House Bolton
>>203279622His bloodline ending?
>>203279453They needed the lord of the Riverlands for the election of the new king.
>>203279686Are you at all familiar with the song of ice and fire?
>>203278661Can you imagine how many torches and candles they must go through? Like 90% of the castle has no access to sunlight.
>>203279261>first of all I'm your uncle and a high lord do not interrupt me like that, second of all i fought in the war of the five kings and have sacrificed everything to liberate you and your sister from captivity despite the fact that I've never seen you. I have defended riverun, i have lost many men, i have seen my country burned by the lannisters, i was forced to into a marriage to fix your brothers mistake and was held captive for five years and have seen all my relatives killed including your mother. Maybe I am not a good option for king but i know that i am loyal and expreinced, now have some respect to your last living relative from your mothers side and show me respect for fighting for your freedom niece.
>>203278735Blacksissies have really been seething over this.
>>203278981This. Edmure was just an average guy trying to survive and to help those under him survive the wide harsh tumultuous world. He did what he could, and only the Gods could tell whether that was enough. Doing right is a reward by itself.
>>203278924Of course I would absolutely pet the chonker.
>>203278924>Wow Erik sucks that your wife's busy raiding>Maybe I can be your wife tonight instead?
Fuck targs. Gods I was strong. Which targ faggot fighter could actually defeat him? Blackfyres not included.
>>203278981>Bronn becoming Lord of Highgarden was dumb as shit though.That guy is dead in less than 6 months. Bran probably just agreed to it as a joke. Bronn could have just asked for the money to build a nice new keep on donated Crownlands with a direct overlordship from the King and without annoying vassals. Instead he wanted the headache of being Lord Paramount of the Reach for who knows what reason. A place where even the savvy attractive Tyrells were only tolerated by many of their ancient bannermen. What a dumbass, so much for being a survivor.

>>203275072A toast to this anon for keeping the anons' houses updated. I got quite busy today. May the Seven/Old gods/R'hllor/Drowned god bless ya
>>203278735Why are they seething so hard about something that's part of the book canon for years? Just be happy your side is getting pandered left and right in the show, you sore winner hags.

How did GRRM somehow create the GOAT fantasy character of all time and how did DnD ruined him
>>203274973Ryan Condal was literally picked by GRRM to be the showrunner for HotD and he _still_ fucked him over.This is what happens when an author greedily takes the money without demanding some kinda control over the production of the show.

>>203285571You don't haff to be so mad. I only answered anon's question, and besides; it's an indisputable fact that the Valyrian-derived culture of the free cities is far more advanced than whatever the fuck the Westerosi have going on.

>>203283167Frankly, GRRM probably got one of the best contracts possible by getting to be an active part of the writer’s room of GOT for the first four seasons. Take the case of Brandon Sanderson (whether or not you like his writing is immaterial for our purpose). A few years back, he was *the* hit new writer. He often talked about meeting with major studios regarding adaptations of his work, and there were reports of stuff like a Mistborn movie being in development. But he was always insistent that he didn’t really give a fuck about the money and that what he really wanted as much creative control as possible. Fast forward to today, and there are no adaptations of his books being worked on. These studios will walk away before they let go of creative control.
>>203285827based, I'm halfway through ADWD listening to this guy's videos, they're fucking kino
>>203278917I hope the Blackfish rescues him in the prologue of ADWD.
Another great day. The sea is calm, its sunny with a nice breeze coming in over the water, the grapes are doing swell. Arborchads, we can't stop winning.

>>203285827>>203285908I’ve got a long drive upstate this evening, I guess I know what I’m going to be doing.
>>203286013I hope you enjoy it, I've shilled him here a few times because I really enjoy his reading of the series compared to the official audible version. He gets a better mic when he does book 2, and there are like 3 chapters in book 4 or 5 where he did mono audio accidentally, but the full series + dunk & egg novellas are all on his channel. Just wish he would do Fire & Blood, but theres a free reading of that on youtube as well, if you wanna save the playlist. Just trying to spread the love.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HX3vvqd54ME&list=PLA4WFGBMDvTqG2hKkBBW6tzpGEtych8RN

>>203279186George is a decrepit old sexist fuck and can't even recognize his own creation, Queen Rhaenyra, as the rightful ruler who had her birthright stolen by entitled cishet white dudes. Disgusting fat slob. For all his crying about Trump he probably likes the guy secretly. Does absolutely fuck all to support the queer members of the cast of his own show.
>>203286013>>203286098I think the most kino part of his videos is when Stannis saves the Night's Watch and he starts playing Ride of the Valkyries while reading it
>>203286269He also has a decent singing voice and puts real effort into The Bear and the Maiden Fair more than a few times throughout the series.
>>203286325yeah actually singing the songs rocks too, especially the few where he starts strumming a guitar along with them
>>203286393Oh and how could I forget Southern belle House Tyrell, especially Olenna. And redneck House Reed. And Davos. It fits surprisingly well with all of those characters. A nice change up from the standard English accents.

>>203274287I like the theory that the Codds have more squisher blood than the other Ironborn and that's why everyone hated them. Now so much time has passed that no one remembers why they all still hate the Codds.

So, I never got to S3 of GoT back in the day. Doing a rewatch, starting from the beginning. Is Dany's sideplot this fucking bad in the books? I don't remember finding it so fucking dull and boring. Its basically her being a naive kid, saved by Jorah's mentoring as she tries to undo years of Viserys' grooming and intellectual neglect. She is treated as this naive kid but then always somehow it backfires on her antagonists as she comes out of the shadows in a "gotcha" moment where she gets the upper hand. Then she goes back to being a naive kid till the next person that tries to take advantage of her gets tricked and she gets one over them, giving her the victory. Just seems incredibly convenient, maybe its treated better in the book but in the show it comes off forced.
>>203287852>Is Dany's sideplot this fucking bad in the books?No, it's worse. A chapter takes a lot longer to read than 2 or 3 scenes, making the torment much longer.
>>203275072brought the missus to House Spanker last night if you catch my drift
>>203287852Daenerys chapters are only tolerable because of the characters around her. Jorah is alright, but it gets better once my nigga Strong Belwas enters the frame.
>>203280426Half of the Targs warriors. Robert was strong, not the greatest warrior of his generation
>>203287079Assuming you’re Roose, I’d try and take advantage of your intrigue ability. Achieve a marriage with Sansa and then murder all her brothers.Otherwise, you expand the same as anywhere else. Fabricate a hook on your liege to enable you to declare wars on your neighbors. In CK3 they dumbed it down so you can’t even fail to fabricate a claim, it just takes a certain amount of time. Then just grow your power until you can fabricate on Winterfell itself.
I forgot this little shit died and started the whole conflict. I think the loss of a child should've been felt more as an audience member
....semoc eH
>>203283065>Stannis Burned to death by Melly after being defeated by Roose>Tyrion Eaten by Drogon or burning in King's Landing >EuronBreaking his neck after being cornered by Ser Garlan the Gallant
>>203287852The only good Dany chapters are the ones in ADWD, when she stops being handed easy wins, allies and resources in a silver platter and actually has to rule. And she fucking sucks at it.
>>203288077Plenty of this audience want to feel Luke on their members
>>203287984Going to assume he's book only. Haven't seen or heard the name yet. Yeah, I've been getting that impression just seems like a misfire from George then.>>203287937Ah well that's good to know. That is honestly a bummer. I know she's a woman, so she is limited a lot in to what she can do but it feels like George really fucked up with her background. She should have been brought up more studied and with more knowledge. Bookworm type that at least when she's using her wits, diplomacy and deception it would at least have a basis. Instead of it appearing out of nowhere to give her the win. >>203288092Ah well at least there is a progression there. Hopefully with her learning something from it and developing her character more
>>203277039Why is Vermithot stabbing himself with a sword
>>203287709>>203287203I really love this version of Last of the Giants. No other version has come close to capturing how it’s supposed to feel. Really hurt reading the book and Jon not understanding the song, because there are still hundreds of giants. Ygritte tells him he knows nothing, and the obvious implication is that the song is about the Wildlings.https://youtu.be/4wGspDcAKIcAdditionally, I’d like to add that I am still super mad that we don’t have a full rendition of the Bear and the Maiden Fair sung in this style https://youtu.be/u8U9zTSKn1M
>>203288140Filthy queer, I just want to watch Luke fuck his mom
>>203288198>Ah well at least there is a progression there. Hopefully with her learning something from it and developing her character more>Daenerys>learning from her mistakesOh you sweet summer child
>>203274933you're just horny my nigga
>>203280426Rhaegar nearly won and he wasn’t the best Targ warrior. Presumably Aegon, Maegor, Aemon, Aemond, and even Darmon would beat him.
>>203288406>AemondDid fucking nothing ever
>>203288505Aemond was mentored by and defeated Cole, who rekt Daemon and Brokenbones. Aemond was the best fighter we know of during the Dance.
>>203288562>Show fanfiction And Helaena did not give a shit about Jaehaerys death lmao
>we're never gonna get this now
>>203288140You are still here, Lukefag? I thought you kys.

>>203288659that rhaejak isn't fat enough
>>203288406AAACKKKK*shits pants while dying as Robert laughs
>>203288609Cole still rekt Daemon in the book, and Cole trained Aemond, who is a mirror image of Daemon but younger.
Reminder that Helaena is not George's favorite character even though it might seem that way because of his recent blog. George's favorite fire and blood characters are Daemon and Nettles and it's obvious.
>>203288659Cute Nettlejak
>>203288562COLE was the greatest warrior of his time. Darmond Daqvaryon was a mediocre swordsman with a dragon.
>>203288707Agreed.
>>203288337Why is that so improbable?
>>203288739Cool headcanon, but headcanon nonetheless.Aemond still has 0 (ZERO) sword fighting feats. All he did was burn peasants on his dragon.
>>203288671He probably did, I'm not him. I just shitpost in his memory.
>>203288854>>203288854>>203288854NEWVALYRIAN SUPREMACISTS ONLY
why did they cut the m*ester conspiracy out of the show? or will the storming of the dragonpit be where they drop the blackpill
>>203288337Ah. I honestly thought Daenerys was so popular because she was a good character. I suppose its because of the female side of the fandom and having dragons then.
>>203288884daenerys is popular because she has a cute bum and nice natural tits
>>203288609>Despite the loss of his eye, Aemond developed into a dangerous swordsman under the guidance of Ser Criston Cole, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard.
>>203288996Feats?
>>203288875Love the red dragon still has the watermark.
>>203288054Thanks for the strat, anon. I once took over the Riverlands once as the Brackens but it was a pain dealing with the overload of domains.
