and it makes me smile and makes my heart hurt because i can so easily picture catelyn wrestling with arya in the same way and arya squirming and fighting them every moment, and neither her or her maid being able to do anything with it. i imagine they kept it as short as catelyn would reasonably allow and might have just cut out whole tangled chunks instead of brushing them out, and i wonder how either of them would've felt about that, especially in comparison to how much catelyn loved brushing sansa's hair: would it have been traumatic and added to arya's self-esteem issues, or would she have been relieved? obviously not as traumatic as being called lumpyhead after yoren chops her hair off wildly, or being called arya horseface by jeyne and sansa, but hair issues are such a mother wound.

"Jon's eyes were a grey so dark they seemed almost black... [He] was slender where Robb was muscular, dark where Robb was fair, graceful and quick where his half brother was strong and fast... He had the Stark face if not the name: long, solemn, guarded, a face that gave nothing away."

Arya bit her lip. He means to leave me too. “You would do better serving Lord Tully at Riverrun.”    "I’m too bloody lowborn to be kin to m'lady high.“          "You won’t be stealing no kisses from a princess.”                "Arise, Ser Gendry.“ You could have made swords at Riverrun for my brother, she thought, but what she said was, “If you want to be some stupid outlaw knight and get hanged, why should I care?”

It's also so insane to me that 'Ned's honour got him killed' is unquestionably accepted in the fandom, like no. It wasn't honour that forced him to accept Robert's request to come to KL and be Hand (he could have refused and cited his duty to Winterfell and the North). It definitely was not honour for him to overlook the deaths of Elia, Rhaenys, and Aegon, and to continue respecting Robert as a king. AND on the topic of Elia and the kids, it was NOT honour that led to Ned telling Cersei that he knew about her and Jaime. It was guilt, and fear. He literally starts the chapter thinking about dead children. Robert's Rebellion haunted Ned throughout AGOT, and that was what got him killed. And the stubbornness of his best friend.
