Night’s King. He had been the thirteenth man to lead the Night’s Watch,
Whattt
He was a Stark, the brother of the man who brought him down.”
OKkkk
The Rat Cook had cooked the son of the Andal king in a big pie with onions, carrots, mushrooms,
Like Arya did to Frehy in the show
He wore blacks, like a brother of the Watch,
Benjen?
And then she knew.
WHAT?!
nor how her mother’s corpse had been dumped naked into the Green Fork in a savage mockery of House Tully’s funeral customs.
Ouch thats news to me
She abandoned the cold white prize in the mud where she had dragged it, and ran, and felt no shame.
Nymeria? Warging?
She was no one.
Foreshadowing
Because Joff was no more to me than a squirt of seed in Cersei’s cunt.
Sheeeeeeeeeeesh
“For hands of gold are always cold, but a woman’s hands are warm,”
You told me to put the tears in Jon’s wine, and I did.
Oh shit I forgot!!
Lady Catelyn’s eyes never left him. She nodded.
OMGGG
“Your mother was a monkey from the Summer Isles.
So there is still racism...yikes
salt wives.
Women he raped or just affairs?
They broke their fast on roast squirrel, acorn paste, and pickles,
Gross
The septon had a lean sharp face and a short beard,
Is this the High Sparrow :0
Some accounts speak of giant ice spiders too.
NOPE NO NO NO
“Be quiet. You lied and schemed and plotted to make me Lord Commander.
this feels sooo different for Jon
and for a moment she was blind.
Foreshadow???
Real tears were trickling from her eyes, to fill the bowl she cradled in her arms.
Metal AF
“Aye,” he added softly, after a pause, “and his father too, I think.”
So Kevan knew?!?!
grey plague
Stonemen?
gaoler
Just realized this word is pronounced like "jailer" not "gay-oler" rip
the crows had feasted
Heh
Petyr
Im noticing a shift from "Lord Baelish" to "Petyr" in these chapters
Littlefinger,
Ahhh i forgot about this name too.
And Littlefinger was no friend of hers. When Joff had her beaten, the Imp defended her, not Littlefinger. When the mob sought to rape her, the Hound carried her to safety, not Littlefinger.
Yessss shes seeing it
Littlefinger never lifted so much as his little finger for her.
Bars
Tyrion had been put to death for killing Joffrey,
they dont know yet
shaking spell
Epilepsy?
The game of thrones.”
*Ramin Djawadi plays the theme song*
“I prefer my history dead. Dead history is writ in ink, the living sort in blood.”
Bars
“We had one king, then five. Now all I see are crows, squabbling over the corpse of Westeros.”
More bars tbh
“I don’t want to have a dozen sons,” she had told him, appalled. “I want to have adventures.”
Girl, same
And wouldn’t a stag be more fitting for King Robert’s trueborn son? In my day a bride donned her husband’s colors, not his lady mother’s.”
She totally knows lol
cock-a-whoop
A wot
No man had ever made her feel as good as she had felt when he took her nipple in his mouth to nurse.
WOT
Jon Connington,
Why have i heard this name before... is this the name of the guy in Pirates of the Caribbean?
What am I doing? he asked himself. I am a knight of the Kingsguard.
TELL ME WHY this was better than any of the spicy books I've read??? 10/10 sex scene
“The gods made men to fight, and women to bear children,” said Randyll Tarly. “A woman’s war is in the birthing bed.”
Randyll Tarly suuucks
I need t’ see this man about a horse.”
Good will hunting joke?
Gilly did not leave the child willingly, I am certain.
Whattt how did i miss this?
“I propose that we inform Castle Black that no more men will be sent to them until such time as Snow is gone.”
Oh wtffff?
Yet when he tried to picture her, he only saw the wife he’d killed. He had sobbed each time he struck her, and afterward carried her down to the rocks to give her to the crabs.
Wtf howd he just casually drop this info like that
“Your father made the same mistake with you,” said Asha.
BURRRN
Did you sing for Renly? She had not, not ever, though she had wanted … she had wanted …
Weird
The Just Maid, it was called. No common sword could check her, nor any shield withstand her kiss. Ser Galladon bore the Just Maid proudly, but only thrice did he unsheathe her. He would not use the Maid against a mortal man, for she was so potent as to make any fight unfair.”
Its giving Elder Wand
A maid has to be mistrustful in this world, or she will not be a maid for long,
She went to sleep dreaming of the fight they’d had, and of Ser Jaime fastening a rainbow cloak about her shoulders.
Oooh cute
“I’m sorry that I never trusted you. I don’t know how to do that anymore.”
I need to start leaving a note of who's saying these things because I have no idea now.
