asoiaf twitter is so cool you can say 'I think the way you guys talk about gnc women is kinda weird can you maybe stop that' and you'll get people calling you a freak and a bitch
worst thing ever to happen to me is when trans fem sanji headcanons/fanarts depict her as a cute uwu shy girl blushing and all.... like... are we talking abt my girl sanji... the sanji who'll kick anyone's ass in high heels and not even break a sweat... the sanji who crams her hands in the pockets of her skirt (because yes it has to have pockets) as she scowls at marimo for the stupid thing he said... the sanji who chain smokes and always has a cigarette ready in her hand..... the sanji who curses like a sailor but who cooks the most delicate n delicious meals for her girlfriends.......
it’s always really funny to me when people complain about katniss being “too masculine” or a “not like other girls” girl because she is… hardly even masculine i think. like… REALLY? the most masculine woman you can handle is KATNISS EVERDEEN? the small skinny short YA protagonist with long hair?? are you that scared of body hair
Not sure if you've done them already, but what do you think the mistresses of Aegon IV would have worn?
I yes I’ve done some Here! That one includes Sereni, Barba, Bellegere, and Mellisa (plus Naerys) so I’ll do some more here (also idk if I’ll do Jeyne since there just isn’t much to go off on for her)
Falena Stokeworth is the first mistress, the first to make a “man” out of Aegon when he was 14. Since she was ten years older than him, she doesn’t wear the frivolous fashions of the younger ladies, though you can still tell she spends excessively on fine fabrics and intricate lace. I think she always held some bitterness ab what happened at the Maiden’s Day Ball, and always tried to dress as “elegant and unassuming royalty” . Plenty of embroidered bodices, silk overskirts, lace collars, puffy under sleeves, etc etc. She almost looks nouveau riche as she tries to fit in with royalty
Poor Meg dressed in common clothes for most of her life. As a blacksmiths wife, she wore the proper clothing for her station and work. Her hair was covered in a cap, her clothing consisted of an old shift, a kirtle, maybe an extra skirt and her apron. All made of rough wool and homespun cotton. When Aegon took her, she suddenly began to dress like a minor noble’s wife. She enjoyed light, gentle colors that she never got to wear when she was a common woman. She likes to make all of her own dresses too, small pleats and puffs, pretty bows, and slimmer skirts than the average noble woman being fancy enough to suit her taste. Once she got sent back, she probably took them with her but never got to wear them again :(
Cassella Vaith was probably a silly young girl when she was taken as hostage during the submission of Dorne, and thus adapted to Kings Landing nicely and enjoyed life there. She enjoyed the fine silks and brocades that the ladies wore, but also incorporated her own culture into her clothes, with thin cottons and looser fitting fabrics that caught the wind. She liked pink and cream and gold, dressing more like a frivolous princess than anything else, because Aegon gives her whatever she wants. Even after she gets sent back to Vaith she still dresses like a young royal mistress, even into her old age, convinced that Aegon is her true love and will call her back eventually
Bethany was probably not as eye catching as her elder sister, and her status as a younger daughter meant she was not given as fine clothes as Barba did when she was trying to become Aegon’s mistress. However she was pretty and young and fresh faced, and her gowns were still suitable for a noblewoman, though perhaps not the fanciest at court. Essentially all of this was good enough for Aegon in his old age, and her style did not change much at court besides the inclusion of more detailing and more expensive fabrics. Bethany was disgusted by the king, and probably did not put much effort into her appearance for him, but did for Terrence Toyne, and this sudden effort for a kingsguard was probably what got them found out and executed
Sometimes even a junkyard dog cleans up nicely. Also happy flex Friday! Red carpet is a figure of speech also, but it was a good time and happy to have gotten to do a charity event!

*slaps my own head like a car salesman* this bad boy can fit so many crippling nightmares. Per night. I just keep waking up. Frozen. And then I just keep falling asleep. And it just keeps on going. Different ones. Every time. Every night. I think I’m breaking a record here
