BUT I SURE DO LIKE SATURDAY MORNINGS

under no circumstances do you gotta hand it to the pope

youd think youd run out of things to say about a tv show

Very importantly Dany would recognize that she CANNOT make him her master of laws bc he’d be way too much of a hardass but she also can’t pick someone else as her hand bc he’d be a middle child about it and the whole thing makes her restructure her entire council to put everyone’s talents to good use so he gets appointed something between hand and guy who can figure out how to structure and finance all her new social programs. He’s pissy about it at first bc he wanted to mete out justice or whatever but he hunkers down and invents the excel spreadsheet (WITH formulas) because This Is His Duty. Six months in everything is structured and fully funded for the next 20 years because he got an insanely good deal with the iron bank. Dany very charmingly and pointedly credits him every time they hit her goals with raising literacy rates and vaccinating children and she designs a stag standing on a firm bedrock to put on all the public program logos so people start calling him some shit like Ser Stannis The Stalwart because he’s so hardworking and responsible (no he cannot possibly do a press conference, Dany needs him for a meeting that day, she sends her apologies) and Stannis is like finally some fucking recognition, NOT that he wanted or needed any he will simply continue to do his duty as always <- guy who’s 14 year old cousin absolutely played him into materially bettering society by addressing needs and creating safety nets instead of just punishing people

THE TRUTH: art is inherently manipulative and artists are wicked evildoers who like to power trip off of controlling other people's emotions
