burgeoning obsession corner

having fun imagining that aemond is like that because he was raised by vhagar essentially

this is gonna get me put on a list somewhere but if Rhaenyra and Daenerys could have met they would not end that interaction as friends Rhaenyra would be putting Daenerys in the SJW cringe compilation

attention this is your captain speaking chag sameach pesach to all celebrating and a reminder do not open the airlock to greet elijah the vulcan rabbinic council ruled that opening the door to the room where the seder is occurring is sufficient elijah can get on a starship just fine himself he just likes to be personally invited in to your seder we dont need another incident like last year thank you

Entirely vibe-based prediction but I think Sansa is taking Mya with her when she leaves the Vale. She needs her own Baratheon sidekick to have a charged relationship with on a roadtrip

someone needs to carry on ned’s gay ass legacy

look I’m fully of the opinion that ned stark is all about #toughlove and preparing his kids for the “real world”, and jon is no exception because that man is haunted by his failure to save lyanna every single day of his life. HOWEVER! it's also important to remember that jon is his baby and gets away with murder (at least relative to the other kids) because ned can hardly look at that boy without choking on his own guilt and grief and love for him. not trusting anyone else in the world with jon’s life, “never ask me about jon”, seating him on the complete opposite side of the hall and generally keeping him out of sight during robert's visit, going into a full-on “fury” when catelyn refuses to let jon stay in winterfell, not wanting to bring jon south to be mocked or (worse) investigated at court but not wanting to send him to the wall either because he’s just a baby, coldly refusing to talk about jon and wylla when robert brings them up, “ned had always been fiercely protective of jon” come onnn even catelyn clocks it. also those are lyanna’s eyes staring back at him from jon’s face so. what is ned even supposed to do. like one time he tries to discipline 3 year old jon after he throws food at robb or something, but then jon looks up at him with huge gray eyes full of tears and ned immediately wants to kill himself (he never raises his voice at jon again). another time jon doesn’t get the last apple cake at dinner because one of the other kids beat him to it and he’s kind of sulking about it and ned just grits his teeth and shakes his head because hasn’t he been through enough? 😫 🐺 before ordering three more trays of cakes to be baked immediately and brought up to jon’s room. and then there’s theon. yikes. that child hostage quickly learns his lesson about insulting jon in front of ned and it’s badddd. basically one day jon and theon are bickering (as usual), and ned is ignoring them (as usual), but then theon makes some stupid joke about jon being a bastard and his mother being a whore and ned screeches so loudly that theon legitimately thinks that he’s about to be beheaded on the spot. it also just happens to be the happiest day of jon’s life. he and theon don’t stop hating each other but theon never talks shit about jon in front of ned ever again (that’s reserved for their alone time). basically ned and jon's dynamic is that jon can ask him for anything under the sun and ned will say “wait here, I’ll get it for you”, except jon never actually asks for anything because he’s jon. in fact the only thing that ned ever refuses him is the one thing that jon really wants aka that time jon works up the courage to ask about his mother and doesn't get an answer (ned goes so quiet that jon never brings it up again). oh and ned also refuses those music lessons that maester luwin suggests for the boys since most highborn children in the south have at least a bit of musical education but ned says NO. absolutely NOT. over my dead fucking BODY and ALSO on an UNRELATED note jon is FORBIDDEN from going within six feet of a HARP from this day on. keep that shit AWAY from my son. and maester luwin is like okay sure. must a weird northern thing or something. anyway then ned is forced to send jon to the wall at the age of 14 to keep him safe and immediately goes back to wanting to kill himself, which kind of explains all of his questionable/borderline suicidal decisions in AGOT ("He must find some way to save the children"...not even kidding guys it's all about jon for him...the only child he ever managed to save).

I won't lie to you I AM a little fond of those "mortal au poseidon is a millionaire and finds out about percy and takes custody of him" fics but they're always like sally was murdered by gabe or died in an accident or something equally sad. I want one that still keeps the base plot of the lightning thief. just imagine how hilarious it would be if random rich guy poseidon turns on his tv one day and sees that 1) the woman he cheated on his wife with is missing in a mysterious car explosion and 2) her 12 year old who is being labeled a domestic terrorist looks exactly like him. the olympian family pr firm is going fucking CRAZY.

imagine. your wife and kids are finding out you had an affair from CNN. your ex's husband is on fox news trashing a 12 year old you just found out about and saying the 'evil' in him must've come from your side of the family. the 12 year old in question has just blown up a national monument. hera is threatening you at knife point in the emergency family meeting. you are begging your arch nemesis athena to defend this random 12 year old in court and she's refusing until she sees news footage of HER 12 year old daughter at the crime scene and frantically calls her baby daddy. conservatives that were already big mad about a powerful and rich family from another country being so entwined in american politics are having a fucking field day. you just wanted to run your silly little marine life passion project in peace.

apollo is live streaming the emergency family meeting and it's only fueling the media storm,

when percy's giving his 'here's gabe's phone number' interview at the end the reporter follows up with 'do you think your olympian family has done enough to protect you in this ordeal? why would they not publicly defend you and state your innocence? how close are you to your father?' and poor percy is just like. .what.
