âThe Dornishmen burn to avenge Elia and her children.â (A Game of Thrones, Daenerys I)
âIn Dorne, the Martells still brood on the murder of Princess Elia and her babes.â (A Game of Thrones, Eddard XV).
âThe only puzzle is what you might have offered for his allegiance. The prince is a sentimental man, and he still mourns his sister Elia and her sweet babe.â( A Clash of Kings, Tyrion IV)
âElia even made the noise that young girls make at the sight of infants, I'm sure you've heard it. The same noise they make over cute kittens and playful puppies. I believe she wanted to nurse you herself, ugly as you were.â (A Storm of Swords, Tyrion V)
My brother is not a bloodthirsty man, but neither has he been asleep for sixteen years. Jon Arryn came to Sunspear the year after Robert took the throne, and you can be sure that he was questioned closely. Him, and a hundred more. I did not come for some mummer's show of an inquiry. I came for justice for Elia and her children, and I will have it.â (A Storm of Swords, Tyrion V)
"But that was the tourney when he crowned Lyanna Stark as queen of love and beauty!" said Dany. "Princess Elia was there, his wife, and yet my brother gave the crown to the Stark girl, and later stole her away from her betrothed. How could he do that? Did the Dornish woman treat him so ill?" (A Storm of Swords, Daenerys IV)
âIt is not for such as me to say what might have been in your brother's heart, Your Grace. The Princess Elia was a good and gracious lady, though her health was ever delicate.â (A Storm of Swords, Daenerys IV)

I love it so much đ
Windrunner Pas de Deux
After Skybreaker on ice I somehow ended up with a Windrunner ballet... I was drawing a ballerina for a job, and when I sketched Syl in my free time, once again I thought how I always imagine her with the poise and built of a classical dancer and one thing led to another and here we are.
The references for the poses come from a Giselle production of the Wiener Staatsballet and from the Knave of Hearts Pas de deux of the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland of the Royal Opera House.
---------------------------
[image description: Syl and Kaladin dancing ballet in four pictures showing them in different poses, it starts with them solemn and melancholic, sparsely lit in front of a dark background that turns lighter and more blue as their moves become playful and joyful. Glowing little joyspren start whirling around them as are windspren as soon they do jumps and just continue their dance floating in the air. In right half of the fourth picture Shallan, Adolin, Liftn, Szeth and a fluffy dog are seen sitting in the audience. From left to right: there is Shallan clinging to Adolin, who has one arm tightly around her shoulder the other over his mouth. Shallan's face is full of excited bewilderment and Adolin is happy-crying. Next to him sits Lift, legs crossed, watching rather unmoved while munching on some popcorn from a bucket in her lap. To her right from her is Szeth. He has one hand to his mount, a knuckle posed against his lower lip and he wears an expression of critical acknowledgement on his face. Next to him sits a giant fluffy dog. It is the dog Kaladin was hugging in my Skybreaker on ice thing.]

Men always say that as the defining compliment, donât they? Sheâs a cool girl. Being the Cool Girl means I am a hot, brilliant, funny woman who adores football, poker, dirty jokes, and burping, who plays video games, drinks cheap beer, loves threesomes and anal sex, and jams hot dogs and hamburgers into her mouth like sheâs hosting the worldâs biggest culinary gang bang while somehow maintaining a size 2, because Cool Girls are above all hot. Hot and understanding. Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want. Go ahead, shit on me, I donât mind, Iâm the Cool Girl.
Men actually think this girl exists. Maybe theyâre fooled because so many women are willing to pretend to be this girl. For a long time Cool Girl offended me. I used to see men â friends, coworkers, strangers â giddy over these awful pretender women, and Iâd want to sit these men down and calmly say: You are not dating a woman, you are dating a woman who has watched too many movies written by socially awkward men whoâd like to believe that this kind of woman exists and might kiss them. Iâd want to grab the poor guy by his lapels or messenger bag and say: The bitch doesnât really love chili dogs that much â no one loves chili dogs that much! And the Cool Girls are even more pathetic: Theyâre not even pretending to be the woman they want to be, theyâre pretending to be the woman a man wants them to be. Oh, and if youâre not a Cool Girl, I beg you not to believe that your man doesnât want the Cool Girl. It may be a slightly different version â maybe heâs a vegetarian, so Cool Girl loves seitan and is great with dogs; or maybe heâs a hipster artist, so Cool Girl is a tattooed, bespectacled nerd who loves comics. There are variations to the window dressing, but believe me, he wants Cool Girl, who is basically the girl who likes every fucking thing he likes and doesnât ever complain. (How do you know youâre not Cool Girl? Because he says things like: âI like strong women.â If he says that to you, he will at some point fuck someone else. Because âI like strong womenâ is code for âI hate strong women.â)

Here goes for a snooze. Damn me, itâs worth a fellowâs while to be born into the world, if only to fall right asleep. And now that I think of it, thatâs about the first thing babies do, and thatâs a sort of queer, too. Damn me, but all things are queer, come to think of âem. But thatâs against my principles. Think not, is my eleventh commandment; and sleep when you can, is my twelfth.
Herman Melville, Moby Dick
