Fuck Bloodraven.

I’m sorry, but a man who STARTS OFF his rise to power and eventual reign of terror by killing a twelve-year-old boy to lure his father out and shoot him, and THEN murdering another twelve-year-old boy when those two are dead…is nothing but shit. We called that wrong when it was done to the medics in World War II, and it’s wrong in Westeros, too.

Bloodraven never regretted anything – I don’t care what he says to an eight-year-old boy to seduce him to the Weirwood Cause. He was a fucking amoral sociopath and his getting to be a kewl immortal and Lord Commander (with a 200-strong honor guard that PROBABLY GOT HIM ELECTED) is a reward, not a punishment.

Reblog if it’s okay for your followers
to leave you an ask telling you what the one thing is they remember
you for as a writer.  Is it a scene or a detail or a specific line?
Is it something like style or characterization?  Is it that one weird
kink they never thought they’d be into, but oh my god wow
self-discovery time?

“make america great again!” ok, where are my untouched national parks? where are my unpolluted rivers and aquifers? where are my trash-free coasts? you don’t want the old america back, you just want the oppression and racism and general inequality that we’ve been trying to erase for years. say you’re a self-important bigoted old bitch and move on
