" When Prince Daemon sent forth his call to arms, they rose up all along the rivers, knights and men-at-arms and humble peasants who yet remembered the Realm's Delight, so beloved of her father, and the way she smiled and charmed them as she made her progress through the Riverlands in her youth. Hundreds and then thousands buckled on their swordbelts and donned their mail, or grabbed a pitchfork or a hoe and a crude wooden shield, and began to make their way to Harrenhal to fight for Viserys's little girl." — George R.R. Martin; Fire & Blood.

"How is it that you did not wed?" Jaime asked him.
"Why, I went to Tarth and saw her. I had six years on her, yet the wench could look me in the eye. She was a sow in silk, though most sows have bigger teats. When she tried to talk she almost chocked on her own tongue. I gave her a rose and told her it was all that she would ever have from me." Connington glanced into the pit. "The bear was less hairy than that freak, I'll----"
Jaime's golden hand cracked him across the mouth so hard the other knight went stumbling down the steps. His lantern fell and smashed, and the oil spread out, burning.
"You are speaking of a highborn lady, ser. Call her by her name. Call her Brienne."
Connington edged away from the spreading flames on his hands and knees. "Brienne. If it please my lord." He spat a glob of blood on Jaime's foot. "Brienne the Beauty."

the kingsguard is one of my favorite parts of asoiaf. this honor that is fawned over and songs are written about. but it’s all fake. only those apart of the noble group understands it’s deep faults and ignore it. all these great men sit idly by as their king abuses their subjects. they are meant to protect the innocent unless it’s their king that is causing the pain. if the king says fall on their sword they would. that’s not honor or loyalty that’s plain stupidity. they are brainwashed into thinking honor is to not ask question and do whatever is asked and if they die pretty enough they might have a song sung about them. BOOOOOO!!!

First Lady by bayyardwu
Tumblr media
Alayne could not help herself. She smiled and said, “My father is always pleased to be of service to one of Lord Robert’s leal bannermen. I’m sure he would be most delighted to help broker a marriage for you as well, Ser Lyn.”
“How kind of him.” Corbray’s lips drew back in something that might have been meant as a smile, though it gave Alayne a chill. “But what need have I for heirs when I am landless and like to remain so, thanks to our Lord Protector? No. Tell your lord father I need none of his brood mares.”
The venom in his voice was so thick that for a moment she almost forgot that Lyn Corbray was actually her father’s catspaw, bought and paid for. Or was he? Perhaps, instead of being Petyr’s man pretending to be Petyr’s foe, he was actually his foe pretending to be his man pretending to be his foe. Just thinking about it was enough to make her head spin.
Alayne I, The Winds of Winter

My favorite quote from ASOIAF
Tumblr media
"A man who sees nothing has no use for his eyes, cut them out and give them to your next outrider. Tell him you hope that four eyes might see better than two... and if not, the man after him will have six"
- Gregor 'The Mountain' Clegane

"(...) there were always rings on her fingers. Whenever she was anxious, she would turn them compulsively around." — George R.R Martin about Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen
P.S- A moment of appreciation for the incredible portrayal of our beloved queen, so expertly done by Emma D'Arcy. They certainly read the books to embody the character with this level of perfection.

"Ser Jaime?" Even in spikes pink satin and torn lace, Brienne looked more like a man in a gown than a proper woman. "I am grateful, but.....you were well away. Why come back?"
A dozen quips came to mind, each crueler than the one before, but Jaime only shrugged. "I dreamed of you," he said.
