I forgot how awful Liam is in Lioness Rampant. Like he is so utterly condescending to Alanna, and it makes me sick every time he uses a pet name. Can’t wait for him to be out of the picture

Jon, George, Liam

Fake Date: Jon

I think dating a prince sounds awful but fake dating one sounds fun! We’d be going out and having fun on his dime, and Jon is charming and enjoyable in small doses.

Slow Burn: George

I don’t know that I would want to go that slow with George, but I could never be his enemy, and I only want to real date him, not fake date 😂

Enemies to Lovers: Liam

I hate his personality so enemies on sight, but Alanna did say he was a fun hook up, so I guess I could see myself tempted to attempt being with him...at least for a very short time lmao

Thinking a lot about Liam Ironarm on this Lioness Rampant reread and I still don't really know what to make of him. On one hand, I do think it's a good depiction of like... a relationship where two people care about each other a lot but are just fundamentally incompatible romantically. But it does it in a way that doesn't actively villainize either party (though I do think Liam's really condescending towards Alanna in ways I find super irritating and unwilling to accept who she really is as a person). And I do think that's good for young kids to read about! Even though I never liked them together longterm, I found how their relationship was written was really unique to read as a young preteen. Honestly, same with Alanna's relationship with Jonathan! How they were in love as teenagers but just grew into different people that couldn't work together as a romantic couple, and how Alanna realized their relationship couldn't work out due to Jon's duties as king and what being married to him would force her to be. And again, just how she was able to maintain very strong friendships with both these people after the relationship ended (Jon took a minute, but they got there eventually)

BUT AT THE SAME TIME. Liam and Alanna's relationship is sooooo frustrating to get through, he's so condescending towards her aaaaaagh. And when I was a kid, I didn't realize that she and George had technically broken up because... I don't really get why they did?? I don't think Alanna ever planned to stay away from Corus FOREVER and George would totally have been down with a long distance relationship until she was ready to come back. I mean, that's how it went with Jonathan before they broke up (even though Jon was probably cheating on her cause he was still being an ass at the time and didn't see just sleeping with other women as being unfaithful, idk this never gets confirmed or denied) Honestly I really just wish Alanna and George had just stayed together for the majority of Lioness Rampant and just written letters to each other or talked through magic fire. It doesn't feel super fair that George is easily the best romantic option, but Alanna probably spends the least amount of time pining over him the way she does with Liam and Jon.

I mean, they do get married though. So my dude definitely wins in the long run. But still!! I wanted more pining!!

#tortall #I also literally do not understand why Liam has to be 34 #I don't like the age gap between George and Alanna but I'm able to mostly ignore it #mostly because Alanna does not feel like an 11 year old when she's at that age she feels like she's written a lot closer to George's age #and they don't actually get together until Alanna is 18 - 19 #but if this ever got adapted I would be totally fine if Alanna is 12 at the start of the series and George is 15 #I don't think much would be lost in translation #idk it's just on the brain!!!#Liam is an annoying boyfriend!!!!#bored badgering

While rewatching season 2 of Vikings Valhalla today, I brainstormed a few possible storylines that they might pursues for season 3.

Since Olaf is already dead and he was like,, technically meant to be a major player for another 20 years, it's hard to imagine what sort of conflict they could come up with for the Norway arc, so it'll probably be something made-up, but Olaf's son Magnus will likely be back. Hopefully, they'll bring in Einar Thambarskelfir, a wealthy landowner in northern Norway, who irl brought Magnus back from Kiev after his father's death. Maybe, he'll make his play for power in Olaf's name!

They probably won't explore anything in Denmark or Sweden (especially since they just did not fill us in on anything that Knut was doing in Denmark this past season), but in England there are plenty of possibilities: they could bring in the earls of Bamburgh (and the real Uhtred the Bold, not the self-insert one from TLK), they could address the struggle to bring Mercia into the fold that they sort of/sort of did not wrap up in season 1, and there is always fucking Scotland!! I would love to see Knut put Malcolm II in his place and host that meeting with Malcolm, Macbeth, and Echmarcach mac Ragnaill that happens around 1030.

Also Knut related: I wonder if he'll be visiting Rome in season 3, because there are several actors credited as cardinals on imdb and Knut did travel to Rome irl also around 1030. If he does go to Rome, I hope we encounter Conrad II because they were like bffs (and lowkey kind of gay).

I have nothing to go off of for Freydis's plot, but over in Constantinople, I wonder if Leif will find maps leading to North America when he reaches Mariam's house. As for Harald, Kaysan, and Batu (the later two I expect will join Harald in the Varangian Guard), hopefully they'll go to Sicily with Maniakes and if we're lucky, we'll encounter William Ironarm or other Norman warlords fucking around in Italy at that time. Either that, or I'd be down for a greater focus on the political drama that is RIFE in Constantinople. I don't have high hopes that John the Orphanotrophos will show up, but if Romanos is supposed to be Romanos Diogenes, we'll have the Doukai opposing him, the fateful Battle of Manzikert, and possibly even the Komnenoi since the writers/producers only seem to care about bringing in the well known families/events rather than trying to bring lesser known but historically relevant figures to the big screen.

Somehow, they're also bringing Eirik the Red into the show, so I wonder if maybe Freydis will be returning home to Greenland, but again, this is where I'm less knowledgable, so no matter what happens I will definitely be surprised. I already know that literally all of my expectations here will be subverted; I don't know how they do it, but they manage it EVERY TIME.

WIP Wednesday

For each part of the day in Riften, there was a market: Morning market was held in the Warke, a long curving street just outside the bustle of Plankside, and if Riften’s many, many bridges over many, many canals were arteries, then Ironarms, the centre of Plankside, was its beating, impassioned heart. Ironarms’s bustle never really died out, even when night came, but rather it just went down to the Dryside, just above the water’s surface. Today, on a sweltering Midyear summer afternoon, Brynjolf, formerly of Clan Hale-Fire, worked his stall in Plankside’s Ironarms. He was many things: A career-thief, an official merchant-citizen of the Rift, broker of secrets, but above all of these roles, he was first and foremost an opportunist. In the same way that a sapper picked off the sentinels guarding a keep, he knew how to pick the right ones out from the wrong crowd, and today, he wasn’t looking for future Guild members in the street rats stalking the crowds. He wasn’t even looking for the next poor sap he would talk into buying his snake-oil.

He considered young women for scullery maids, but there weren’t any girls who looked desperate enough to take on the toil. He looked to young men for the same, but none were young enough to pass off as stableboys to the Jarl’s horsemaster. And besides, Letrush likely remembered his face still. But there was one his gaze lingered on, a gangly figure dressed in rags. His mind’s eye delivered him a picture of that same figure huddling in the Warrens with all the other people that the city forgot about. That was, if they even survived that long.

“Laundryman. Manservant,” he murmured to himself, deciding on a role for them, then lurched, leaving his stall.

Premise: What if how Brynjolf recruited your character into the Thieves Guild went a little differently? Thank you for the tag @tallmatcha <3 Tagging all of my mutuals, but no pressure :D!

Tag Game

Tagged by @running-rabbit

Three ships: Joe/Nicky (The Old Guard), Jyn/Cassian (Rogue One, also Andor even though she’s not even in it but that has resurfaced feelings), Bucky/Natasha (after all this time? always)

First ever ship: I’d have to say Alanna of Trebond/Liam Ironarm from Lioness Rampant. I did come around to Alanna/George, though, but Alanna/Jon was not meant to be!

Last song: "Mr. Brightside” on iTunes, constant refrain of “Baby Shark” out loud except that Bébé has usually has replace “baby” with various names...also sometimes “shark” becomes “goat,” because she met a baby goat in December.

Last movie: Matilda the Musical

Currently reading: Bébé keeps having me start She Persisted but then nopes out around Helen Keller. Perhaps it’s a commentary on Keller’s complicated but indelible legacy?

Currently watching: Leverage: Redemption. I’m really enjoying it—there’s a little more Hardison in the new season, Breanna is a gem, Harry’s actually pretty fun most of the time (and knows his place, narratively and otherwise), and the rest of the original cast remains magnificent. Also...look, it’s not prestige TV, and it’s not the original run. But it’s still a lot of fun, and the show knows you’re there to, like, watch Sophie do a million accents at the flip of a switch, Eliot serve appetizers while beating down henchmen, and Parker flipping through lasers while bad people get their comeuppance. And it delivers. (I still don’t miss Nate, still like how the show’s employed him in-universe as character motivation for Sophie and the others.)

Currently consuming: A lot more Blue Apron than usual while Boyfriend is quarantining at an Airbnb and declined to plan on cooking himself anything while convalescing with XBB. So I’ve been sharing things with Bébé for dinner and then eating the rest for lunch the next day. It’s been a long couple of weeks.

Currently craving: The end of the aforementioned quarantine; he got COVID at a conference and basically got home, tested, and left so Bébé and I wouldn’t get sick. This has worked (four negative rapids and two negative PCRs over here! Also vaccines!) but we pretty much haven’t seen him in a week and a half and that’s sucked.

Tagging: If you haven’t done this and would like to, go for it. I don’t know your life.
