WHAT THE FUCK? ???

which is why .... he is the perfect olaf lbr

(jon being king in the north is …. the most insulting istg )

THIS.. !!! and honestly the constant comparison to Robb in the fandom is insulting imo too... Robb will go down in legend for what he was, despite the mistakes he made.... Jon Snow will just be the one who cleaned up the mess. Not to mention he’s not full blooded Stark.... IF we follow the idea that he IS Rhaegar’s son, it’s an EVEN BIGGER insult that he’s kitn considering that the Targaryen’s are the ones who “conquered” the North. ( coughs that kneeling bastard..... B|| )

                    “  right.    you should be.  ”    soft voice seems meagre in making amends, and the frown remains even past an encouraging tone.    very much spring and winter traipsing away from a sweaty lacrosse field.    it’s a wonder lucy’s compatriots don’t offer her a parasol to shelter from a wintry blaze.    “  i was doing one figuratively, really.    and i mean it.    you did a good job, lu.  ”

send me a 🔥 for an unpopular opinion! : (accepting)

ok there might be a lot of these i need to Vent. 

it seems relatively (and by that i mean i’m not the only person to believe it) popular here, but it doesn’t seem to be as highly-regarded an opinion elsewhere that the aesthetic/build/fashion of narnia might be closer to something like ancient rome/ancient greece than the middle ages. i don’t know. i think a land where there haven’t REALLY been humans in ages wouldn’t go from that to middle-ages-type garb without something in between. i think it’s possible that it slowly BECOMES more like, particularly after the pevensies depart. but. i don’t know. i tend to picture ARCHENLAND being more medieval/middle-age-y than narnia, i don’t know, friends. 

AND THEN there’s this idea that narnia? is a paradise? like some fairy tale world where everyone is kind and good and Nothing Bad Happens Ever and i can’t stress enough how WRONG that is. narnia is fallen, in much the same way earth is. the parallels there are exceedingly strong. it’s created by aslan singing everything into being, and then darkness slips in with jadis (awakened by a human being’s folly/not listening to directions/you get the idea). narnia has its darkness. it’s wild and untamed and, in the time of the pevensies’ rule, still host to the witch’s followers and others who wouldn’t have wanted strange sons of adam and daughters of eve ruling over them. there were giants and wars (and wars WITH giants) and all manner of other things. the pevensies did not have a peaceful land to rule, but one wild and war-like and ONLY JUST RECOVERING FROM A HUNDRED YEARS OF WINTER. of course, lewis’ depictions of animals like…sitting down for tea? probably doesn’t help that image much? but it’s definitely THERE. the paradise everyone with that idea is thinking of is the NEW NARNIA.
