whoever it was at harper collins that decided to frame GRRM’s asoiaf proposal letter w the ‘key five’ thing in it needs to atone bc I am so sick of this shit fr

like im sorry but you can't tell me that you are just this devoted to a proposal letter that some old man wrote in the 1990s - that he's since disowned over and over and over and even directly contradicted in interview - because it gives you the warm fuzzies about the importance of your fave. if you need a source that fucking spurious to reassure you of your fave's importance, then I'd say they weren't that important after all - except it's not about that is it. it's about which 12 year old girl isn't mentioned in the goddamn letter, and your endless obsession w one-upping her and her fans, and trying to provoke them to anger so you can get some applause while doing so. it is not about who is mentioned in that letter, it is about who isn't, and rather than arguing endlessly that 'all POV characters are important' i wish the people who are irritated by this obvious ragebaiting would recognise it as such and let these people obsess over the smallprint of a piece of paper GRRM is actively embarrassed by if that is how they want to spend their time
