No Alarms and No Suprises
To that one special person, that special friend.
`Have you ever had a person who was just your best friend in the whole world? A person to whom you can tell anything and they’ll care about it, no matter how big or small, or significant or stupid it was. A person who you look for at the end of your day, who, simply knowing they’re there for you makes you feel that much safer, like life if just that much bearable. Someone you think about when you think of life 10 years from now. Someone you think about telling when something good happens to you. Someone you’ll be reminded of when you see something beautiful. Someone with whom to take on the world. Someone with whom you can show a side of you that nobody else knows, or maybe that that side of you is only there because they’re there to show it too. Someone without whom, life would just be that much emptier. Someone who you just can’t get out of your life. Someone who makes you feel like no matter how far apart you are or how busy either of you may get, you know you’ll never be alone in the world.
That one person who, you just love and care about so much, and I’m not talking romantic love, I’m talking about a pure, platonic love that a human being feels for another human being. The kind that where other people might see flaws, you never will, because you love every single bit of who they are.
But then life happens. Sometimes you make mistakes. Sometimes you lose them. Sometimes things just make unexpected turns. And it’s like your life is just that much different without them. That much emptier, that much duller. I see those sitcoms about friends on TV now and think of how no matter what they fight about, or how horribly so, they can still make up because they just care about each other, and how I wish we could, as well. Maybe things don’t have to be the way they are now, but for some reason, they just are.
And to that person, I want to thank you. It’s not about the big, profound, significant gestures, but the little, meaningful ones, the little talks, the “Duuude, can I talk to you?” moments, the drunk texts, the trips you plan together, the “I’m here whenever you need me”, and the “I’m not going anywhere, I promise” stuff that I’ll always, always cherish and be thankful for. There will always be that you-shaped hole in my heart that nothing else in the world could ever fill.
I know you might never be able to read this, but I want you to know all of that. And that if you ever change your mind, I will always be here. I’m not going anywhere, just like I promised.
Game of Thrones 7x02 - Stormborn
I love this moment in Stormborn right before he abandons ship. I think everyone pretty much knows that even though it was an act of cowardice, it was the only thing he could have done. Had he come closer, Euron might have slit Yara’s throat and killed him and this way, it’s shameful to them, yes, but he lives to fight another day, to strategize how to get Yara back.
But that’s not my point. The point is, this moment alone where he takes a look around and knows that it’s the end. I think at this moment, Theon broke, and he became Reek again. Now, since he escaped got back to his family, he was trying so hard to be Theon Greyjoy again. To be his old self, try to go back to his old life. He tried to move on from the horrible shit that happened to him, to live with the mistakes he made. He was really trying. But then, this. In this moment, he was given a chance. A chance to prove that he was Theon Greyjoy again, to take what’s his, to not take shit from anyone. But he wasn’t. He wasn’t Theon Greyjoy anymore. And I don’t think it was just the notion of dying that made him realize it, but I think he knew it all along and it was as this moment that he realized it. He wasn’t Theon Greyjoy anymore. He was never going to be Theon Greyjoy again. He’s Reek now.
But I accepted it because the North is my home. It’s part of me, and I will never stop fighting for it, no matter the odds.
Game of Thrones 7x02 - Stormborn
I LOVE Olenna Tyrell, but I also love how Tyrion wipes the sass off of her face like only he can do.
Game of Thrones 7x01 - Dragonstone
A lot of people are saying this scene is irrelevant, that it’s just a fluff piece to show off Ed Sheeran, and that it doesn’t really do anything to the story.
Actually, I think this scene changed Arya. She just got from murdering a whole bunch of people who were just “doing their duty” to their house of allegiance. As far as she was concerned, allegiance was enough reason to kill people. Until she came across this band of Lannister Soldiers. She even took note of their swords to doublecheck that they were Lannister men. In this scene she realized that not all of them are evil, that they’re people too, just trying to do their duty, who had loved ones they left behind just like she had. And when she realized that, she even tested the men’s loyalty to Cersei by saying she was going to kill her, as if to see whether or not she should. Because I think she still wanted to. I think if it weren’t for this scene, she’d have killed anyone without mercy, just for their allegiance. Hell, I bet she was going to kill them. You could see the realization on her face.
Game of Thrones 7x01 - Dragonstone
I love how Sansa’s face turns into an expression of dread when she admits that she learned a lot from Cersei. Let’s not forget the horrid shit she had to go through when she was in King’s Landing. It must have been painful for her to think back to that, even for a second. To have gone through all that, and say she has “learned” from it takes a great deal of strength, I think. And how very Stark of her. Winter had come for her a long time ago, and here she stands now.
In my opinion, out of all the characters in the show, hers has gone through the most development. Jon Snow has evolved into a King, from that green boy who left Winterfell, but I think his heart has always been in the right place. Arya is badass as fuck, but she was always badass. Sansa went from that little girl who wanted to be a pretty little princess to this incredibly strong woman.
Sense8 1x10 - What Is human?
What I love about this scene was it started with Wolfgang needing Lito’s help, but both ended up getting what they need.
This is one of the reasons why out of all the characters in Game of Thrones, I identify with Jaime the most.
