#he proceeds to try again
Note
As someone who wakes up spooning her blankest I'm curious what would HW Aemond do if Lady Tully was like that? Let's say they sleep with pillows in between but somehow she managed to throw them or roll over them and now Aemond is the little spoon. I think he would hold it over Lady Tully's head in a 'you love me too' way but then again he doesn't talk much and everytime he talks he says wrong things so...
How We Can Fit
Pairing: THW!Aemond x Reader;
Warnings: surprisingly... none? Some usage of strong language, but that should be all
Author's Note: Okay, I was planning to reply to this in my usual 3-4 sentences answer. BUT my mind kept thinking about this while in class, so have this sort of one-shot headcanon piece (?) that could have plausably happened in the "Harshest Winters" universe!
I did this while on the 30min ride back home, so don't really consider this a full on fanfic? More like a little snippet into what could have been idk :"))
Tumblr media
Sometimes he wishes he got to you first. What would have been then?
Tumblr media
And so cruel morning arrives, stirring Aemond awake, as would a mother’s gentle hand. Golden threads of daybreak light thread themselves into his silver hair, falling like a hailing echo down her calming face, giving her the image of naught else but a flaming Goddess.
His eye widens at the proximity between them. His right hand twitches in alienated bliss. Almost immediately, he stops his movements – his breathing – all in the hopes of not waking her up.
He trails his stare over her lips, slightly parted in their merry sleep, and over her plump cheeks, marred slightly red by the blissfulness of her dreaming.
His heart is hammering out of his chest, for he can feel her limbs entangled with his, holding him closer yet to her heaving form.
For but a moment, the calls of blasphemy and duty pull him away from the glorious sight before him. It was past dawn, and he had a war to win.
Still his heart broke upon thinking of leaving her unintentional embrace.
Perhaps he could stay in bed some more.
Tumblr media
Two, mayhaps three hours passed.
In her tender slumber, the girl’s hands remained snaked around the Targaryen’s lean chest. Her chin was plopped above his head, leaving a very conflicted Aemond to wrestle underneath her bosom, and hold her gently by the nape of her neck, and small of her back.
A low purr almost escaped his lips, as her tiny heartbeats reached his contempted ears.
But all good things must come to an end. And his perfect morning stopped abruptly, as his Lady took in a deep breath, and slowly tried to rouse from their entangled sheets.
“Mmm…” She sighed into the warm pillows, “... Jace?”
All his blood that had gone to his crotch, now left for his ears. Aemond pursed his lips tightly in response to her sleepy question, and only drove his head further into her neck. If he closed his eye fast enough, then maybe…
A near-horrified shriek parted from her downturned mouth, and the woman made haste to rise from her resting place, peeling her warm body off of Aemond’s.
This had not been the right approach, she chastised herself relentlessly, whilst biting on her lower lip. If he wasn't already awake before her, he most certainly was now.
Her cheeks were set ablaze, both embarrassed and offended, as she noticed the separating wall she’d made between them… discarded away, on the Prince’s half of the wide bed.
“I know you’re awake, you know.” The woman hushed to the Targaryen, while crossing her arms over her aching chest. “Pretending to be asleep is beneath you.”
“As were you, My Lady, whilst coddled up to me.” The older man mused to himself, and whistled lowly, while his voice oozed out with confidence – although his lilac orb had strayed away, glimmering with a look akin to a growing discomfort.
Uncertainty.
“Should I assume your desperation to blossom from feeling cold at night? … Or, on the contrary, for feeling too hot near me?” A taciturn smirk pulled at his lips. “I should be very happy to help relieve you. With either affliction of the two.”
The Lady’s face turned sour, and her nose scrunched up at his advances. “I should find myself in ample heat, Prince Aemond, thank you. Do not worry yourself to touch me further.”
Familiar anger swirled dangerously inside his purple hue, and the Prince Protector of the Realm took a deep breath to soothe his nerves.
“Ungrateful wench.” He hissed through his gritted teeth. “You act like a bitch in heat, trying to seduce me, and then you pull away?”
Her mouth slouched open at his cutting words. “Excuse you?” She almost spat out in a low churl, “As if it wasn’t you who removed our barrier sometime along the night.” His irking remarks had brushed off any reminders of her mellow sleep. “Honour me by answering this, my Prince – between the two of us, who’s acting more like the bitch in heat?”
(Y/N) didn’t think Aemond was capable of blushing – but as she gave him a haughty glare, one that he couldn’t look away from, his face turned of a violent hue.
She had a point. He had removed the pillows that kept his body away from her, and did encourage her movements throughout his sleepless night.
Wordlessly, he scowled, starting to regret sleeping in with her.
“Do not flatter yourself, My Lady. You are no better than any maid I can find at any brothel.” His body burned with shame at his own words, and yet he couldn’t stop the flow that followed. “Hmm, but dare I even compare you to one?” His mouth contorted to a painful scowl, “At least there I should be able to rise up their skirts and see what’s underneath. Go as far as to pay two silvers for a real maiden, too.”
Long and hard had he awaited her next reply, but to no avail. After a quick quirk of her brow, the woman had turned around, getting off the bed and gathering the pillows from the cold floor.
“You won’t say anything? Do you care so little for your honour?”
“I care not what you think of it. And I certainly have no reason to prove myself to you.”
“Aeveris ābra.” He growled at her lack of interest. “Skoro syt līs ao qrimbrōzagon issa sīr?”
Still fuming with dissatisfaction, the young Prince slid out of the bed and began putting on his leather pants. His ire had reached peaks of no return, but he would be damned if he ever tormented the girl further.
His words had done nothing to aid him. His countenance, even less. There was no point in him staying in her presence any longer.
As he put on the last reminder of his clothes, the King Regent of the Seven Kingdoms made four wide steps towards the big, oak doors.
“I shall return later. We’ll dine together, as we do every night.”
Her silent treatment broke him from the inside out. He would apologize to her, when the time was right.
The ridiculous thought put an end to his automatic movements.
… Since when does he feel the need to do that?
Since he dared to love her, came his bitter reply.
His hand reached for the door, but her voice rang out through the wide chamber.
“Nyke dōmrī daor naejot naevlor iksum. Olvie less ao.”
Hearing her proud and crystal words, Aemond allowed a stilling smile to grace his lips.
"Nyke ȳdra daor jaelagon naejot naviras ao. Dōrī ao." He corrected her as he stepped away.
"Fret not, there is plenty of time for me to teach you."
… If only he’d gotten to her first.
Tumblr media
Translations:
“Aeveris ābra.” = Vile woman.
“Skoro syt līs ao qrimbrōzagon issa sīr?” = Why must you curse me so?
“Nyke dōmrī daor naejot naevlor iksum. Olvie less ao.” = (in a VERY broken High Valyrian) I never meant to tempt anyone. Much less you.
Tumblr media
Yeah, Aemond is kinda dumb when it comes to romance <3

When I came across that "joke" from Tav to Quill and Z'rell's comment (plus Halsin), I had to take a minute to process what happened. Gale might be a bit silly and eccentric but he's the kindest, sweetest and most passionate character in that party. No wonder the poor man has deep insecurities to solve, so many people reduce him to an easy target! Ofc one of the side effects would be overconfidence and ambition as a defense mechanism. He's obv lonely; only Tara and Morena ever loved him for him.
Tumblr media
his eccentric nature might be a part of it. he is loquacious, outgoing, and doesn’t see the point in hiding his enthusiasm. he is considered to be the weird one. naturally, wizards in general being seen as somewhat squishy and physically weak might also add to it.
personally, i really don’t like the implications of the (widely considered) autistic-coded character being the one who faces the most ridicule by far by other characters and fans (and larian) alike.
some might disagree with me on that, but i don’t find it funny by any means either. mostly it just makes me feel bad. “he deserves it. cocky, arrogant, hubris-ridden wizard needs to be taken down a peg” like he isn’t… y’know… already at his lowest. it also disregards the fact that much of his bravado is part of his carefully curated Great Wizard of Waterdeep™ persona that he has skillfully adopted to mask his general feeling of being defective. being fiercely proud of your skill and knowledge and being doubtful of having something truly worthwhile to offer are mindsets that can coexist. according to fandom, gale is either secret hubris incarnate that is only waiting to be unleashed upon the world or pure baby that can do no wrong. instead of a character that is just as flawed and traumatized as all the others, but no less deserving of genuine love.
to me, the constant ridicule just reads as further feeding into his deep-rooted insecurities and his belief that he (as gale, the person) isn’t someone who holds inherent worth. it really, really doesn’t sit well with me.

Question, is Bean Bloodmoon even allowed near the kids inside the daycare?
So far it seems:
Bean Lunar is adorable...
Bean Eclipse is a menace...
Bean Bloodmoon is a whopping Holy #@$&
You know you pose a good question. Something tells me he's probably not allowed in the daycare when its OPEN. Just a safety precaution, more or less. Sun would like it if he wasn't at all but also I wanna take these two. and Make them unlikely friends. But later maybe. Please do NOT have Eclipse and Bloodmoon at the same time in the daycare while its open. It's not good for anyone. Killcode learns the hard way.

Also my bf didn't come down for Chinese because he shares his car with his family and they used it for something yesterday. I guess he didn't even think to Uber or Lyft down or yknow, use the other fucking car they have.
I ordered myself some Subway with the uber eats card I got from the doggy daycare interview, but I'm just retroactively pissed off. All week I was looking forward to Chinese with him. I treated myself but I'm about to start fucking working soon and Sundays will be my primary off day starting next week, now planning will be even more impossible. And he couldn't even find a way to have Chinese with me or something. Or just come at night and go somewhere else with me. Like, I'm legitimately trying to wrap my head around why he can't seem to find a way to make shit happen ever unless I take responsibility and pressure him to be an adult. No fucking thanks.

I swear, one of these days I'm going to just snap and tear into one of/the majority of my coworkers bc I am SO sick and tired of their behavior
#today the newest girl messages me two hours before her shift and tells me she's going to be late#the time for her shift to start comes along and she messages me again saying she's going to be a bit later than she thought#at this point i'm like fine. whatever#30-40 minutes pass and i finally take my 30 minute lunch break#while i'm going she arrives at 4 (a whole hour late)#she clocks in and then proceeds to make a phone call#despite the literal owner telling her to end the call and come work she does not#he leaves and i tell her she has 5 minutes until she needs to hang up#5 minutes come and go and i tell her she needs to hang up now#i then had to tell her 3 or 4 more times before she finally did#and then she starts stalling and asking if she can call her mom or the boss or this and that and i tell her no each time#i also tell her that she doesn't get a 15 minute break bc at this point she was on the phone for a whole hour in addition to being late#but guess what this girl tries to do anyway!!! take a 15 minute break!!!#i confront her while she's trying to leave and she tries to lie and say that i told her she couldn't take a 30 minute break#she also tries to insist that she wasn't on her phone for an hour when i literally checked the time she clocked in#and the time i finally got her to come work#when she realizes i see through her bullshit she tries to say she's going to call the owner and ask if she can go home early#jokes on her but since he was gone that decision was up to me and i obviously told her no#she got mad at me ofc but i am just so fed up with this shit#my boss might put up with it but i have HAD IT!!!#legit going to tell him that we shouldn't allow phones anymore. period.#i hate to do that but at this point it's so much more trouble than it's worth with these kids#earth duty stuff#vent#negative

sometimes it’s sad that the default fanon for McCoy is grumpy, annoyed, no fun allowed, old, and done with the world
when this guy also enjoys the life so much and to the fullest - he loves food, drinks, he loves good times (he’d go bar hopping with you if you asked), he likes sex, he loves research, he’s curious, he likes jokes, he likes to tease and “prank” others

[cont.] @eposerta​:
A  FROWN  ,  THOUGH  BRIEF  ,  threads  upon  her  lips  at  his  words  .  all  i  ever  do  is  run .  this  is  a  future  that  she  feared  for  herself  .  a  life  that  may  have  some  form  of  immortality  to  it  ,  but  to  be  on  the  run  ,  changing  cities  every  time  someone  gets  a  glimpse  of  what  she  is  –  what  she  can  do ?  fear  strikes  briefly  in  that  moment  ,  it’s  paralyzing  ,  though  only  lasts  long  enough  for  renata  to  take  a  breath  .
❛      i  uh  ….      ❜    fingers  turn  over  a  leaf  of  the  lone  rose  in  her  hand  .  blooming  beautifully  ,  it’s  scent  is  far  stronger  than  any  other  florist  in  the  area  –  though  nobody  dares  question  why  ,  ‘  i  don’t  have  a  lot  of  experience  in  the  *running*  department  ,  had  to  do  it  ,  and  i  ended  up  hiding  in  the  same  place  i  was  supposed  to  be  running  *from*  ,  but  i  do  know  that  being  lost  isn’t  so  bad  .  ‘  a  quiet  hum  falls  from  her  lips  ,  and  she  looks  towards  hayan  with  a  slight  smile  .    ❛    we’re  all  a  little  lost  ,  aren’t  we ?     ❜
Tumblr media
all  of  them  ,  guided  by  things  they  can’t  control  ,  a  universe  either  out  to  kill  them  or  willing  to  keep  them  alive  .  it’s  a  toss  of  the  dice  ,  and  renata  knows  that  she’s  been lucky  to  have  made  it  this  far  considering  all  of  her  shortcomings  in  the  nephilim  department  .  still  ,  something  settles  upon  her  skin  that  she’s  come  to  recognize  as  trouble  ,  a  looming  shadow  cast  over  her  frequent  visitor  that  she  knows  wouldn’t  put  her  mind  at  ease  .
❛    i  don’t  really  have  any suggestions  ,  but  …  i  can  offer  you  a  helping  hand  ,  if  there’s  ,  you  know  –  anything  i  can  do  .  i’d  be  more  help  if  i  knew  what  you  were  thinking  of  running from  ,  too  .   ❜
As fleeting as it was, Hayan detected a hint of fear mingled with the strong scent of roses as Renata pondered his words. It was one of very few emotions he could identify by smell, though he could never determine the reasons behind it. It puzzled him all the more that she would feel fear over something not to do with her. Could it be empathy? Was it even possible for a human to already care that much when they'd known each other so briefly?
He stayed quiet as she continued on, realizing that she had run unsuccessfully from something much like he had. So she could relate. That was why she listened so intently & perhaps that was why he felt the urge to lay his problems bare whenever he came to her shop. A listening ear was something he craved more than anything, despite the fact that the abundance of prying eyes & ears was exactly his current problem.
"I wish I could tell you, but... it's not safe. You would not be able to help me." He let go of his necklace to pull on his hair; a weak attempt to quiet the warnings in his head. Don’t tell her anything, it will only make matters worse. But his chest ached far too much from having to contain his secret & somehow his heart always won these arguments. Perhaps a bit- just a little bit- of clarification wouldn't do any harm. Perhaps there really is a way she can help.
Hayan gave an exasperated sigh & stood to face her. Closing the space between them, he lowered his voice. "I can't tell you very much, but bad people want to kill me because I have something they want. That's why I have to move, even though I'm happy here: I have to protect my mom. They know what neighborhood we live in. Soon, they may know our address."
Tumblr media
It occurred to him as he looked into Renata's eyes that he could have phrased such terrifying news more gently than he had. At least, he reassured himself, it was vague enough that she wouldn't likely suspect him as a gumiho. A criminal, perhaps. Some kind of thief or spy would be a reasonable assumption. Or maybe just a lunatic.
She wouldn't call the police, would she? He bit down on his lip. Nothing would stick even if she did, of course, but he didn’t want to be banned from his latest comfort zone. Please, please don’t freak out...

Y’all my work place has been absolute shit to a working mother lately on top of not taking racism claims seriously and constant scare tactics instead of using mistakes as teaching moments and I’ve been wanting to quit so I put in my two weeks today because the coworker that’s been treated like shit also is quitting and it kinda gave me a push and my store manager texted me telling me my experiences are wrong and trying to make my coworker look bad 😐 said he’d forward it to upper management with his statements of proof but little does he know I’m contacting HR tomorrow with my statements of proof you’re not scaring me off
#bro said he never used scare tactics and then proceeds to use a scare tactic#also like we got a review saying someone experienced discrimination and I heard the store manager make excuses as to why the customer was#wrong and didn’t actually get discriminated against 😐#and then to make me feel dumb in the text he was like “umm that claim happened when the coworker you love was on the clock so#and I’m sitting there like. bro I HEARD you LAUGH about it. idk how she responded because she never talked to me about it I only know you#and the other two managers’ reactions and only one of y’all cared! that’s bullshit!!#and I’m sorry she has a toddler and a newborn and they keep getting sick and she’s trying to juggle taking care of them and work#she was the only employee left that had been there over a year#and y’all tell everyone she doesn’t wanna work ask why her fiancé can’t watch the kids and then say you’ll cover her shift then stand in the#back all day to make her look bad#like her fiancé has a job too her family isn’t available and the toddler rn can’t go to daycare because of a bad rash#she gives her all man and yeah she worked the day of that racism claim but so did the person who yelled at a deaf person#while it’s more likely it was the mom coworker I won’t rule out that fact that it could’ve been but she shouldn’t be treated like shit over#taking care of her kids. if there was an investigation and she was racist then she would’ve been terminated (hopefully)#but also just the amount of times I’ve gotten a ‘hey team’ text and dreaded opening it#because he always paints himself as perfect and then doesn’t give us tips to improve#it’s just don’t make this mistake again or you’re fired#and most of the time the mistakes were just that because we were never taught NOT to do that#like stacking certain discounts and taking certain returns etc etc#plus the two managers under the store manager and minus the mom coworker just constantly start drama and lie#it’s so frustrating because I never know if I should trust their word or not#and then they don’t finish their work and claim that it was someone else’s work#so that they can claim they did all their work but the other manager didn’t but then the other one says the SAME THING#I am working with adult children and a shitty elementary teacher#well not anymore because I’m not finishing my two weeks thanks to that manipulative text#idk what you expect when you text your employee saying that actually you’re wrong and I won’t let upper management think you’re right#so tempted to just text back ‘have fun finding people to cover me’#I’m just an associate so like I don’t have to be there#but teehee if you’re gonna be an asshole I will too#I’m mostly just pissed tbh especially after everyone acting like the one manager walked out and quit when she had a mental health problem

since i already made my current Tarnished in the Sims, i decided to make a Tarnished for each Ending in Elden Ring and so far we have
Kyran - Current/My Canon Tarnished. Mute half-omen and Draconian who either takes the normal ending. They're very sweet and loves people and wants to be friends with everyone. This causes problems. Please Help them.
Latai - Ranni ending. Another sweetheart, very gay for Ranni. Becomes her sword lesbian knight. Plays guitar and is an artist and knows how to tattoo, and is also covered in them. Not very magically skilled but Ranni teaches her if she asks.
Ealen - Frenzied Flame dickhead. Here to cause problems on purpose. Rumored to be a bastard child/descendant of Marika. Kicks it in the Volcano Manor when he isn't being a nuisance to everyone out in the lands between. Honestly would probably be the Mohgywn ending if we had one.
Gilda - A Tarnished Finger Maiden, still devout to the Two Fingers. Almost totally blind, but can see the guiding light of grace and the glow of runes in those around her. Can't really see terrain though so she relies heavily on Torrent to lead her in fights. Close relationship with Melina and also becomes Morgott's consort because dammit fromsoft let us love the old man. Perfect Order ending.
Jaron - A former healer, disillusioned after the death of his son outside the Lands Between. Hard to get close too but will still crack a corny joke or a dry comment every once in a while. Finds comfort in Fia and assists her in bringing Destined Death to all.
I don't like the Dung Eater so his ending doesnt exist (:

trying to nail down eli's character rn (aka my fanon version of danielle)
so here are some characters i can see her taking after
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
#i'm considering rolling youngblood's character into hers since i'll be honest as a character he rlly isn't THAT#distinct or unique enough where i don't think much would be lost if i were just axe him and fold him into eli's character#him and dani are both child characters who show up have 2 eps where they're plot relevant#again they're not like SUPER well defined as characters#they both just kinda act like your standard child character in a cartoon would imo#so the backstory i'm currently brainstorming for her is that instead of being danny's clone she's a girl that went missing a couple yrs ago#and was never found she's basically a runaway who tragically died and likes to play pretend/read books as a form of escapism#from the crappy life she had when she was still alive and living w her parents#ig if you're wondering as to why she's not a clone here is bc imo i think valerie could've served danielle's role in the narrative just fin#had the writers actually fleshed out her mentee/mentor relationship w vlad actually#so in my eyes it's not necessarily plus why have vlad idk like try to actually emotionally manipulate danny after bitter reunions#and get him back into his good graces instead having him yk make clones or w/e#like i think it's funny how vlad's like 'man i rlly want danny to abandon his father and be my son'#(proceeds to do literally NOTHING to make that happen bc he continues to just be an asshole to his nephew once he knows the truth lol)#also for as much as i extend sympathy to maddie/jack bc to me they're brown immigrant parents who are clearly flawed but trying#i don't want eli to get adopted by them simply bc yeah no offense maddie/jack but you guys literally fucked up the 2 kids you did have#so maybe let's not add a 3rd one to the mix ok#also i should mention that eli's name is a nickname (her given name is elizabeth but doesn't rlly like going by it anymore)#robi rambles

Just realized Vincent's character can kinda be summed up as "i can fix her" and horrendously failing
#'i can fix her' bro she is actively being made worse as we speak!!!!!#okay i jest but this did make me think about some stuff actually#vincent's honestly a guy that seems so. not human. like literally in that hes kinda a zombie and can transform into monsters#and then metaphorically in that hes canonically a 'natural loner' as nojima calls him and comes off as cold and admits hes just like that#but hes So. Fucking. Human in that he was in love and chased after a woman with a million red flags#and who frankly didnt deserve him and he butted into a situation that actually should have stopped being his business#but he continuously tried to do 'the right thing' and got himself screwed over for it#and proceeded to BLAME HIMSELF and try to fix 'his mistake'#like. whats more human than 'its my fault and i should have tried harder and done the right thing' WHEN WHAT HE SHOULD HAVE DONE#WAS GET THE FUCK OUTTA THERE ONCE HE WAS TOLD TIME AND TIME AGAIN THAT ITS NONE OF HIS BUSINESS ESSENTIALLY#the more and more i break down vincent the more i realize like#wow. he kinda sucks. like not even just in a loser way but in like. yep! thats a human! way#thats a person who digs himself deeper and deeper into a hole thinking if i just dig a little deeper itll get better#and now hes six feet under in a grave :/ metaphorically. well. he does end up in a coffin but like. unrelated actually. huh.#okay i actually shouldnt call him a loser and say he sucks actually cuz i think he acts very realistically in terms of like#guy whos in love and thinks he can save her if he just talks enough. guy who thinks maybe this time will be enough to fix the situation#GUY WHO THINKS IF I SAY THE RIGHT THING ITLL FINALLY GET THROUGH TO HER *proceeds to reword the same statement a million times*#hes too human really. ohhhh my god im gonna lose it. OH MY GOD HES JUST SOME GUY#HES THE RESULT OF JUST SOME GUY TRYING TO BE A PROTAG BUT THEN HES HIT WITH CRUEL REALITY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#personal
