Show Notes & Resources under the cut.

Sexuality Headcanon: i’ve talked about it before but i LOVE the idea of characters finding out about their sexualities as they grow older or much later in life especially with brienne being brought up in a heteronormative environment so i think she’s attracted to men rn (rn being what we have in canon rn), but i love the idea of her growing or finding that she’s attracted to women as well so bicurious brienne!!!! but right now she’s sexually attracted to men and she has a certain Type which is pretty boys with loud mouths

Gender Headcanon: i would say cis but i think her relationship with her gender is interesting since she does not see herself as what society deems as ‘lady’ and there is that part where she did accidentally called herself as her father’s son, SO mayhaps i would say she is gnc mayyhaaapsss

A ship I have with said character: um duh. jaime. jaime lannster lannister jam lan jay lan the big ‘J’. jaime just because!! i’ve expressed this through numerous amount of text posts but just because the sheer Romance of their stories and the way their individual stories fit together like muah chef kiss excellency!!! 

A BROTP I have with said character: pod!! you will have to pry best friend pod from my cold dead manicured fingernails if her best friend is not pod in any fic i am an angry dragon breathing fire everywhere jk. i love her with pod i love them as best friends and him as his son, etc. i also love her with pia!! i’m pushing the best friend pia agenda. 

A NOTP I have with said character: LOL if she is shipped romantically with anyone else than jaime then it is my notp sorry to say

A random headcanon: modern brienne would have NO fashion tastes like she just dressed SO badly her outfits are very outdated and she would rotate on the same looking jacket and pants and her idea of formal wear would be a crisp white button down that is slightly too big for her because it’s in men size and she hasn’t gotten around to getting it altered to her frame with a brown skirt that goes belows the knees and have weird buttons on the front with flats like she looks Not Good and when mod au fashion king jaime sees her ‘best fit’ he’s just like ... oh my god i will take you shopping and buy you clothes shut up dont say anything im paying for it with my own card (start of sugar daddy au)

Thank you !!!

I feel like you are one of the few people I know who would appreciate that my birthday happens to be the day that Frodo was tempted fully by the ring, lost his finger, and incidentally saved everyone by oopsie-daisie-yeeting Gollum into the fiery chasm of Mount Doom!

exrayspex replied to your post “magic boobs”

this is delightful oh my god. keira is def familiar with the whole boobs trying to escape through the armholes of your sleeveless shirt thing and she would not stand for it!

sonnetsandswingouts replied to your post “magic boobs”

LOVE the premise, I always look at those kinds of necklines and shudder to think of the sunburn.

bebeocho replied to your post “magic boobs”

i would just like to say that even though i am woefully behind on Meet Death Sitting, i really enjoyed both these snippets very very much. that first one made me emotional (Lambert, baby!! :'(( ). also, GOD i wish i had magic that could keep my tits up

LOL thanks yes-- I have become obsessed with Keira’s magic invisible bralette. I say this as a certified Big Titty Bitch (who, TMI, is currently dealing with how at a certain size in the summer you just always have that bit where skin’s gotta overlap and if you don’t have The Perfect Bra at all times that’s gonna get chafed and then it won’t heal? Mega Fucking Bummer)-- all I ever do with summer fashions is look wistfully at their lack of bra coverage (WHY ONE-SHOULDER WHY FUCK U WHO CAN WEAR A SINGLE-TIT BRA THAT MAKES NO SENSE), and all those great scraps of lace they call bras that all the skinny girls get to wear, and like, *wistful sigh* wouldn’t that be amazing, anyway, back to my Glamorise old lady sports bra that goes to my collarbones cuz it’s the only thing i own that doesn’t leave overlap to chafe.

(witch hazel helps, word to the wise, just always be applying witch hazel to all skin, in all seasons, this is how i live, bonus you can put some rose water in it if you don’t like the smell, it’s in the indian food aisle and works basically exactly the same)

On this note however, I have found myself (it is my birthday, I am indulging myself) enmired in yet another Keira story, which is the follow-on from What Mages Are Like where she goes to Yennefer for advice on how best to give a Witcher what he really wants in bed (namely, The Strap), which was only ever a porny side idea I’d sort of abandoned, and yet, Keira walks into Yennefer’s office and all Yennefer can do is think about improvements to the invisible-bralette spell.

(I don’t write enough f/f and listen I have needs)

Keira gave the room a wary, surreptitious, and sensible once-over as she came in, and dropped into the chair with a force that should have sent her breasts right out of her so-called shirt, but they didn’t move. Yennefer itched to pick the spell apart. It would be so much more distracting, she thought, if the spell were designed to allow for some movement, like a looser-fitting breastband-- perhaps enough movement that the nipples nearly showed but not quite-- but they were held firmly.

A shame.

snoutbeetle replied to your post “fic snippet”

Oooo, I'd really like to see more of this!

bittylildragon replied to your post  “magic boobs”                   

   *I* want more Keira/Lambert from you :D                   

Sexuality Headcanon: Like... Kinsey one and a half, at least in my most recent fic since the leather community is very queer, but I don’t really see him as anything other than a straight man. Eyes might wander but he’s definitely a serial monogamist. Maybe before Maria he fooled around with a dude.

Gender Headcanon: Alpha male with a canteen of respect women juice.

A ship I have with said character: Frank/Karen obviously. 

A BROTP I have with said character: Frank/Curt forever. They need to go fishing, and eat barbeque, and wrestle an alligator. 

A NOTP I have with said character: Frank/Billy cause Frank deserves better than that. 

A random headcanon: I like to imagine Frank, channel-surfing in the middle of the night, watching reruns of Jackass.

oh 100000% you are correct. (also as someone currently playing a warlock..... yeah, ok. also correct.)

I AM ALSO CURRENTLY PLAYING A WARLOCK and... yeah

“@metapphjores replied to your post “Old Guard D&D nights, what...”

listen if andy doesn't go straight up martial, she's a moon druid, definitely. turning into 500 pounds of Do Not Fuck With Me bear?? YES. (alternatively, totem barbarian/moon druid multiclass, if she ever deigns to put that much thought into it. you can rage while you're wildshaped)

this is a GOOD CALL 

also I’m... still hung up on the All Paladins campaign 

Joe stews on it for a week and finally on Sunday afternoon they all sit around the table and he’s like “so! you all :) want :) to be :) paladins” 

and he lays out this setting where the party isn’t actually on campaign, they’re coming *back* from a campaign in a distant land that was a glorious victory for their god and now, riding through the smoke and ruins, they keep encountering smaller conflicts they have to resolve and every time they make a decision in favor of one side or another there’s a consequence that crops up in the next session 

since i’m on a bit of a theme of “memories from my youth,” tonight: the LOTR movies came out when i was 14, 15, and 16, and in the year i was 14 i actually read Fellowship and maybe TTT before i found out there was going to be a movie adaptation (i remember finding out by my dad coming across an article about it in the paper and reading it out to me). i ENTRENCHED myself in LOTR fandom, spending hours on LordoftheRings.Net and TheOneRing.Net’s message boards, digging through their archives of fanwork - pages and pages of art and fanmade music (my fave composer pre-Howard Shore’s actual soundtracks was Patrice Deceuninck, although all his music at the time were tiny midi files that could be downloaded over dialup!). i scrounged for every scrap of news during filming, hungrily looking for any hint of the costumes and sets, nursing my crush on Orlando Bloom. this was all at a kind of a lonely point in my life; we’d moved to ohio when i was 13, already a rough year in my life, and the shine quickly wore off the adventure in the shitty little town we’d moved to, where everyone already knew each other and had their own friends and our house was lame. the movie theater was really shitty, had only four screens and was dingy and dirty. but seeing Fellowship’s title screen twenty feet tall for the first time was a blessed escape from everything that was hounding me that year. i bawled when the end credits rolled and saw it in that gross little theater three more times.
