Game of Thrones Season 7 Review Part 2: Important Characters

The latest season of Game of Thrones was...well...it happened. There were some really good moments and some moments that made me rage. I watch the show late at night so I can't properly yell out in case I wake up anyone. Because there is a lot to talk about I'll be changing my usual reviewing form to break this up into three parts.

The second part of this review will talk about the characters. When writing I focus more on the characters than anything else in my story. If I don't have good characters in my fiction, I won't enjoy it as much.

Season 7 of Game of Thrones did horrible things with its characters and not in the usual way. In other words it wasn't that the characters died horrible deaths but that the writers seemed to have forgotten how to write them. Luckily a good majority of the actors were able to save their performances via their acting abilities.

I am not going to talk about every single character but only those that had the most impact on me. So if I didn't mention your favorites here, feel more than free to comment a question or two about them.

Inside the Lore of the Rin Duology: Lessons from the Pack

I am making this series of blog posts for my roleplaying friends. The Rin Duology is a long Game of Thrones/Resident Evil fanfcition and you shouldn't need to read it to understand my Original Character (OC) Rin.

Now when I write fanfictions I don't always adhere to canon and deviate from it. Sometimes in large ways and sometimes in minor ways. So please ask me about what I know about the canon of either series before assuming. Although I have no doubt some will ignore this part.

This post explores Rin's connection to her direwolf pack. As it was the family she was raised with, her time with them impacted her in very meaningful ways. With them she learned life lessons and useful skills. The only thing I don't touch on is her 'Native Tongue' as I don't think it would fit in this post.

It was boring and nerve-wracking all at the same time. I lay in a room waiting until my death and Hisara's birth. I worried about how Alex, who was now sitting beside me, would carry on. That is if he was able to win. I worried that Alice would kill Hisara on her rampage throughout the Hive. A rampage that should have happened a long time ago.

"Keep calm." Alex said and took my hand, squeezing it gently. "You are safe here. Hisara will...will be born and I'll raise her in the new world. In the world we helped build."

Yes, I had built a world with Alex. A world where the majority was dead or turned. The rest were wandering the Wastelands. Maybe Alice should win and kill Alex so my husband wouldn't be able to inflict his horrors onto the world anymore. But I still couldn't stand to see him dead, even at the expense of the world. A world I hadn't been born in and would leave very soon.

"I trust you to raise her." I told him and squeezed back. "I just...I'm going to be gone soon and she'll never remember me."

"I will tell her about you." Alex said sadly. "I will tell her how great her mother was."

I smiled and a tear came out of my husband's eye. He wanted to stay strong for me and let me make my own choices. But it was so hard for him and I could understand. Suddenly alarms started going off and he stood up. We shared a simple glance before he left. We both knew the reason for the alarms and he was too protective of me to talk. The minutes passed by and I kept imagining Alex dead and Alice coming in carrying his head. She might be under the delusion that I wanted her help. She could kill Alex but I wanted to give birth with him by my side.

For those of you who are stopping by my blog for the first time and/or don't have a lot of time to keep up with my blog, this is for you.

I will be posting some of what I consider important stuff I have blogged about and an update on an important project.

Crossing the Divide 80

"I was there when Viserion was born. It was an amazing sight to see. Three dragons in front of my eyes. Three creatures that had not been seen for many years."

"And Daenerys was there. She was unburnt."

"I am glad we decided things between us wouldn't work out. I don't know what I would have done if I was by her side when she went mad."

"With you in her bed, she wouldn't have gone mad."

"So it's my fault for-"

"No, never. It is not even Yara Greyjoy's fault that she went insane. If Daenerys had been as strong as she appeared, she would have resisted."

I looked at Jorah and could see him realizing the flaws in my argument. I had both said who was in her bed could have saved her from madness and that it didn't matter who she slept with. I wanted to save Jorah from all the guilt yet I couldn't. I decided on another way to approach the argument.

"Would you trade your happiness for Daenerys' sanity?" I asked him. "If you had stopped pursuing her you would never have found me."

"I would never want to have you as a stranger." Jorah replied and took one of my hands in his own. "I also don't like what happened to Daenerys. She held such promise of being a queen and to...to see her like how she turned out...I know the maesters will put her down in history as a demonic woman but she was good. I don't know what I would decide if given another chance."

"Be glad that you don't ever have to make the choice. I love you, Jorah."

"I love you, Rin."
