As pretty as your own

varamyr, one of bran’s biggest foils, has a one eyed brother and a small sly sister, just like bran himself!

We should also support the idea that if we can't tolerate incest or age gap and the canonical romanticization of it inside this book serie we shouldn't be on this fandom at all. Daenerys and Jon are the main characters and one is born because a couple of incestuos sibilings went against the whole world to be together and imposed incest on Daenerys's parents and the other is born from THE biggest love story in the book among a 14 year old and an over 20 years old father of 2 kids prince.

EOWYN AND ARYA COMPARING THEIR SWORDS

— Jon Snow [ comm by Paola Pieretti ]

the moon, whom nymeria is singing to during the dream, tries to draw his attention by running with him, murmuring to him, then almost screaming, growing more and more insisting. the chapter starts with ghost remembering his pack, juxtaposed with jon remembering all his siblings in his final chapter before deciding to desert out of love for arya. but ghost still turns away from the moon and tries to run toward the sun, toward life itself. it’s as if some instinct in him understands that following the moon is not the path he should take, that following her will mean his death. and yet how could he not follow? arya is his heart and you can’t live without your heart.

then mormont’s raven wakes him, who is most likely bloodraven, urging him toward duty, toward the greater war, toward defeating the others. he doesn’t care if some girl jon once knew might be in danger. and so the lord commander of the night’s watch wakes up to do his duty.

jon spends the entire book trying to choose duty over love, trying to be the lord commander instead of the brother. but in the end, his love for arya wins. love is the death of duty. and he dies as a result, leaving castle black in chaos when they were meant to be strong, prepared and united against the others, not distracted by petty infighting.

They had always been close. Jon had their father's face, as she did. They were the only ones. — A Game of Thrones - Arya I

The play director/writer collaborating closely with GRRM is evident in the director pointing out - without even being asked - that Lyanna has a lot in common with Arya Stark...
