my #baihe side couple of the same universe: 1. Cai Ping (elegant). she replaces the daughter of a minister, looks exactly like the og 2. gongsun rongshan (glory|mountain), daughter of maojun. is mistreated in noble society bc shes very gender nonconforming. she commands troops.
idk if unpopular or not but i was so happy when he died bc of his treatment of cersei. howeverrr varys pissed me off lol
Your unpopular opinion about Kevin Lannister's chapter
i understand why shes intertwined w jaime lannister but i was very happy once they went their separate ways lol
Your unpopular opinion about Brienne of Tarth's chapters
horrifyingly sad... but i think whats really tragic is that its so clear george thinks of her as vain, singularly cruel and vapid, which i think does a disservice to her actual character on the page..
Your unpopular opinion about Cersei Lannister's chapters
i love qarth into astapor so much, i loved seeing her start to learn what it means to have actual power and use it for good.
Your unpopular opinion about Daenerys Targaryen's chapters
i love reading his chapters, genuinely i think itd be hard to understand asoiaf to the fullest extent if you dont at least enjoy his character a lil
Your unpopular opinion about Tyrion Lannister's chapters
cersei's chapters are the hands down the best chapters in affc, but i feel like many people like them for the wrong reason. they're not "funny" because "she's so crazy ahah" they're gutwrenching actually
Your unpopular opinion about Cersei Lannister's chapters
cerseidany-- looking down paths not taken did this with my mouse so it took 100% more time & hand pain than usual.. dont have my tablet rn
can we wrap up this fucking performative ass hygiene olympics trend please. Unless you own only 1 or 2 pairs of underwear why the fuck would it make any sense to not mass wash them? This is so wasteful and just an excuse to feel superior over nothing lmfao
I think it's weird to pile up your underwear so that you can mass wash them 😭
one day jaime fans are gonna have to acknowledge that jaime was not only a rapist in the show he is one in the books too the sept scene with cersei was not explicitly consensual and if that was not enough cersei tells us theres been times he simply would not take no for an answer
antigone’s clash with creon and his gendered regime in her attempt to protect her brother’s legacy is reminiscent of dany’s clash with the gendered regime represented by robert, as she seeks to emulate rhaegar, her elder brother whose shadow robert sees in her
Ismene : girls cannot force their way against men Antigone : yet I will. “It was these calamities that transformed my people into slavers,” Galazza Galare had told her, “And I am the calamity that will change these slavers back into people”, Dany had sworn to herself.
female fans on the other hand see her as antithetical to the soft feminine sphere, her dragons being seen as a masculine instrument of power that allegedly privileges her against other women, and makes her “unrelatable” and “unrealistic,” her qualities not real qualities but
interestingly enough, fans deride dany as too feminine and not feminine enough. male fans see her as lacking military chops and rational, stoic prowess, as being too emotional and unfairly served by her beauty and magical femininity
i know cersei isn't a feminist icon and i've always acknowledged the harm she caused. but you cant deny she fought against the same system that oppressed her. her rebellion wasn't pure, it was messy, cruel, and deeply rooted in trauma. and that’s the point.
