We're all doomed, but who cares? More Game of Thrones ramblings

[shapinglight]

Trying to use a non-spoilery icon outside the cut, though it's not the icon I want to use.

More slightly shame-faced Game of Thrones 'shippy rambling behind cut, with spoilers obviously.



Okay, so you know the other day when I thought most people reading about my sudden Dany/Jorah love (she shouldn't have kissed him, damnit, and most of all, he shouldn't have gone on his knees to her) would be thinking ewww! he's old enough to be her father? Well, I'm sure there are people thinking that, but mostly -judging by all the icons I'm seeing, and all the comments about the pairing on game_thrones, I'm very far from alone. Far from being part of 'we happy few', I seem to be part of a major 'shipping group (in the show-based part of the fandom anyway). Weird.

I also don't seem to be the only one getting bromance-y/'shippy vibes off Bronn and Tyrion either. This is such fun! :Is a happy 'shipper.'

And that's despite having accidentally spoilered myself when, on ordering the first book in the series on Amazon (yes, like mrs_underhill, caliente_uk and coercion88, I am going to read the first book, and then try not to read the second until I've seen season 2), my eye skimmed over the blurb for the latest book - the one that comes out in about 2 weeks. Aargh! And then, if that wasn't bad enough, I followed a link (forget which one) and found all these character profiles (books characters, that is), and before I could tell myself not to look I'd read the Jorah Mormont one (can't help it if I read faster than I think, can I?). Oh well, I can't say I didn't know it would all end in tears, because I did.

But never mind. Until we get to that point I'm just going to enjoy it as much as I can.

I'm falling more and more in love with this show every day. Can you tell? I'm obsessively watching the two GoT fanvids I've saved to my memories over and over again and looking through every icon post seaching for the perfect icon for this character and that character, then seeing one I like even more and changing my mind. I'm even seriously thinking of deleting some of my BtVS icons to make room.

It must be serious.

Oh Harris' books have a plot, it's just fairly simplestic and mostly there to ensure as many sex scenes as possible. I think she's a frustrated erotica writer, personally.
