cheating is not “bound to happen” i’ve been alive almost 24 years and not once have i ever thought “hey i wonder what it’d be like to go outside of my relationship and destroy a persons self esteem and ability to trust”
never bitch
cheating is an active choice. its not second nature. and if it is second nature to you, then you need to do some real soul searching and figure out what the fuck went wrong in your life
The game consists in making a lie sound like a truth.
Arya’s lie became obvious the moment she said she wondered what it would feel like to “wear those pretty dresses” and “be the lady of Winterfell”. Arya would never do such as wearing dresses and she has never before expressed any wish to rule over anything, not even her home.
The moment Arya handed her sister the blade (pointed towards her stomach and not Sansa’s) the game was over and she hinted that what she said (the “threat”) was a lie. ARYA WOULD NEVER KILL SANSA.
Arya did this not because she “despises” or fully mistrusts Sansa, but because she doesn’t trust LF. SHE IS WELL AWARE THAT LF IS THE ENEMY.
Jon : I thought Arya was dead.
Me : So… Brienne and Sansa didn’t tell you Brienne saw her a few seasons back or…?
Jon : You’re Robert’s bastard !
Gendry : You’re Ned’s bastard !
Me : Aren’t you going to mention you traveled with his sister and that she got you out of Harrenhal or…?
Jon : You’re the Hound ! I saw you once in Winterfell.
Me : He doesn’t know Arya traveled with him. He doesn’t thank the Hound for looking after his sister… Brienne and Sansa just didn’t have time to tell Jon that or…??
“His heart will stop when he sees her” as Arya smiles so brightly. - S7E04. GoT writers teasing Jon&Arya and confirming who holds Jon’s heart.
Now that Jon and Gendry are together. Imagine their reunion with Arya.
Both of them running and hugging her. Then they stop. They look at each other awkwardly.
Arya is ready to die of bliss.
Jon Snow’s reaction to receiving a raven from his missing brother, Bran, had better not be an off-screen scene. I’m gonna need to see Jon’s reaction to the knowledge that both Arya and Bran are waiting for him back in Winterfell, alive and well. I want him overwhelmed with joy and relief, just speechless before taking a big sigh and looking in the direction of Winterfell with a hint of smile. I need more in person Stark reunions but this will make do in the interim. The actual reunion will make me cry, I’m sure.
And I want Daenerys to see his reaction so she can better understand him as a man. She’ll be able to see how important his siblings are to him and how it’s not just honour that drives him, but love.
And if it doesn’t, I’ll need fic of it (we have so many talented writers in the Jonerys fam) before I decide to buy a ticket to the US just to rage out at D&D.
since its back to school time, i thought i would give you guys some perspective.
imagine going to a job where you get paid very little and you have to actually spend money to do your job well.
imagine having to speak in front of a new group of people you’ve never met before every hour for 6 hours.
bathroom breaks? yeah, good luck.
those people you have to speak in front of? yeah, they think you know nothing and/or disrespect you more often than not.
you finally leave, an hour after you were supposed to (more like two or three), only to go home and do some more work.
whether you get to keep your job or maybe, maybe a hope of a pay raise depends on how well that group of people perform.
your success relies on others.
every single decision you make is questioned by everyone around you.
that’s the life of a teacher.
please respect them.

I will never get over the fact that Katniss picks Peeta.
Because in itself it’s so powerful.
She picks Peeta not because he is better than Gale. Or because he is better with her than Gale.
She choses him because he has something Gale cannot give her.
Hope
And no it’s not that Gale can’t give her hope. He certainly can.
But it’s the kind of hope Peeta gives her.
Peeta represents a peaceful hope. Understanding what you’ve been through and trying to move on and make the best out of what you have.
Gale represents a rougher kind of hope. He represents the battle that you go through to get to it. The anger and the pain.
And though Peeta has those traits. He has come to terms with the fact that he cannot change what has happened to the world. But he knows that he can help make it better by planting little seeds of hope as he goes along.
Because Gale wants to just uproot a tree and plant it in his garden.
But if you do that you never get to see the plant grow. And it could die because it’s not used to where it is.
Peeta represents hope.
LITERALLY
He is the hope.
Katniss says that he gives her a peace that Gale could never.
She chose him because he will help make her a better person.
Which is so amazing.
Because Peeta makes her feel safe.
But not safe from the world.
Safe from herself.
Safe from her worries and struggles. Safe from her fear.
He grants her a peace of mind that cannot be given with roughness.
But through gentle progression.
And I think thats beautiful
So that is why I think Peeta was the best person Katniss could have decided to spend the rest of her life with.
