Nothing annoys me more than when people say Jaime and Brienne are “so pure” that their relationship would be ruined by sex.

Like, what planet are you on? They’re not pure, they’re utter filth.

They try to have a sword fight, but end up having a metaphorical sex scene that is all swords kissing, forwards backwards, blood on thigh, straddling.

Jaime tells Brienne his great secret and she’s like *he looked so hot in that bath, couldn’t tell you a word he said but he looked smoking*.

Jaime goes within four feet of some slightly tepid water and he’s like *do you remember Brienne naked in that bath? Cos I sure do!*

They both try to think about normal things and then *unbidden* they’re both thinking about each other in conjunction with sex and babiez.

Like, where is the purity?

Underrated form of intimacy:

The quiet discussion and good-luck affirmations between you and the person helping you don your armor. The comfort of knowing that the straps and buckles are perfectly secure, because the person who did them up loves you more than words can say.

editing is so fun. I'm learning what the story I wrote is about

One thing that helps me write when I remember it is Write It Awkward. I absolutely struggle with describing characters walking across the room. But sometimes you just have to suck it up and say, "They walked across the room," and move on. It feels stupid and awkward. It sticks out like a sore thumb. It's going to drag the reader out of the story for how awkward it is. Except it isn't. Chances are good that once you've moved on and seen where everything is going, you'll think of a better way to do it. And if you don't, here's the thing. Readers don't notice people walking across the room. They are not going to notice one basic sentence that exists primarily to get him closer to the window or whatever. As long as he gets closer to the window in order for the scene to proceed, readers will be happy.

In the end, it's probably not as awkward as you think. So write it awkward.

“blue is a good color on you, my lady,” jaime observed. “it goes well with your eyes.” she does have astonishing eyes. brienne glanced down at herself, flustered.

still love the way grrm decided to write this so damn much. other than the obvious romantic undertones of it all the “so he did” is so terse and simple and blunt as if it is the most straightforward and obvious thing in the world for him. jumping unarmed into a pit with a live bear to try save this woman is the most sound thing in the world. wanting her is the most sound thing in the world. doing the right thing is the most sound thing in the world. there is no justification for even a blink of hesitation. so he did.
