All of this times One Million.

A lot has been said about D&Ds terrible dialogue writing, but I think the greatest sign of their weakness is that they straight up don’t write the most important parts of their conversations.

Jaime arrives at Winterfell and sees Bran for the first time? Cut away and go straight to the trial! Why actually write that first remeeting or Jaime getting caught at all? Just skip to the trial.

Arya and Sansa finding out about Jon’s parentage? Cut it before the actual reveal. It’s not like this is mind blowing info we would love to see the characters react to or anything.

Sansa asks Jon if he bent the knee for love or for the north? Cut before he responds. Did he just walk out? What did he say?

Tyrion pulls up a chair to hear Bran’s story which is, presumably, what convinces him to later suggest Bran as king? Cut before the actual story, which means we don’t actually know what convinced Tyrion.

Sansa decides to tell Tyrion about Jon’s heritage which is a VERY MAJOR MOMENT for EVERYONE in the story? Cut before she actually reveals it.

Jon kills Daenerys and assumedly some major shit happens? Cut before anyone discovers it and just skip to later so that we don’t have to deal with that scene.

And do you know why they do it? Its so they can avoid the most difficult bits to write and instead let YOU imagine the conversation. It forces the audience to fill in the gaps and do most of the work while they get to just fuck off to the next scene. And this problem shows in their writing on a larger scale because they are allergic to emotional pay off in any fashion, which is why so many character arcs feel weak and so many plot threads are left hanging because they just do not feel the need to tie things up. They’d rather everyone else do the work for them and then praise them for their genius.

#no I am still not over GoT #and yes yes yes I did want to see those important scenes but hey #GoT #the one true king

And so it begins ......  I’m so happy they are still skating through this quad. Ahhhh.

Finally news about the Lethal White adaptation. Please hurry because this book was my favorite. 

UPDATES STRIKE FANS!!!! Wooo hooo!!!

#CB strike #cormoran strike #robin ellacott #my lovelies #also jk please hurry and write the next book

[ashowthatflopped]

Sadly, this is true. 

JK Rowling writing every Strike book:

#why #CB Strike #cormoran strike #robin ellacott #strike and robin

[ashowthatflopped]

Co-sign on to all of these. Also, JK Rowlings, please devote more of your time to Strike and less to Harry Potter/Magnificent Beasts. Thank you.

Things I would like to see in book 5

1. Strike get’s one of those blade prosthetics cause looord knows he ends up running towards killers and churches and hiking through enough forests to put it on the expenses.

2. Robin, Vanessa and Ilsa become the girl gang we deserve.

3. After a suitable period of singleness for Robin to get to know herself as an individual that I will responsibly struggle through without complaint cause I am a supportive reader, Strike declares his undying love, Robin accepts and they start the awkwardness that will be them dating.

4. (Do I even need to say it) More Nick, Ilsa, and Shanker.

5. Nick, Strike and Wardle go on a disastrous boys weekend away, running into Shanker along the way who may or may not be breaking the law. Robin’s brothers are also invited.

6. Strike declares his undying love and Robin accepts.

7. More about Strike’s childhood and Whittaker/Leda, also Rokeby can feel free to turn up needing help (blackmail would have been the easy route but I guess that’s out of the question now)

8. Strike declares his undying love and Robin accepts.

9. We get a ‘meet the parents’ trip to Masham and laaawwwddd is it awkward and laaawwwddd is Cormoran a disaster.

10. Robin stops being the one ending up in danger because really who is the dummy human disaster here?

11. Last but not least WE GET THE TV VERSION WITHIN ONE MONTH OF THE BOOK BEING RELEASED I think we can all agree that’s a fair time frame for both the filmmakers and us. K? Cool!

(12. oh and I guess there can be a crime in there somewhere)

This has been brought to you from, Came for the crime, stayed for the tale as old as time™

JK’s going to slow burn us to death, right? Four books in and nothing’s even happened lol. 

Brand new pic from The Strike Series… hype go higher and higher!

Couldn’t they have fulfilled *one* prophecy? 

Ugh so much fail in the last few episodes.

Almost every single popular fan theory of S8 didn't happen. I think it was on purpose to sUbVeRt eXpEcTaTiOns.

Jon kills the Night King

Bran is the Night King/evil

They lose, and the NK goes to KL

Cersei blows up KL with Wildfire

Jaime kills Cersei

Tyrion kills Cersei

Arya kills Cersei using Jaime's face

Daenerys is pregnant with boatbaby

Daenerys is the Princess who is Promised

Jon is the Prince who is Promised

Boatie is the one who is promised

There is actually a reason for the PWIP prophecy.

The Mirri Maz Duur prophecy is said to be fulfilled, not just speculation.

Targaryen Restoration

Jon embraces his Targaryen heritage

If Daenerys dies it will be in childbirth or the Nissa Nissa prophecy.

Dany would be resurrected like Jon

Night King Jon and Night Queen Dany

Jonerys wedding

Dany meets Ghost

Nymeria and her pack comes to help

Jonerys endgame

Braime endgame (if Arya didn't kill him to use his face)

Gendrya endgame

Arya and Daenerys would be friends

Sansa would eventually come around and Arya, Dany, and Sansa would be the ultimate girl gang.

More dragons

Jon and Daenerys would rule together.

The Seven Kingdoms would split up into seven kingdoms

Jon and Dany would peace out to Essos, and a council would be formed.

(Add any that I haven't thought of.)

#gameofthrones #wow thanks #if they lost interest why didn't they give S8 to someone else who may have cared #hello darkness my old friend #i wanted a baby

[ashowthatflopped]

OK this is my new obsession/fictional ship. Why can’t JK Rowlings just let them be together? 

just wanted to share this picture of my mom and dad 🥰

#ugh #strike and robin #obsession #CB Strike #Cormoran and Robin

This scene between The Hound and Arya was one of my favorite moments of episode 805. Arya has been Not Annoying this season much to my surprise.

Sandor convinces Arya to live
