You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

sumi, there is a storm of swords to choose from!

I have forgotten what book anything happens in, and probably what order things happen in, and probably a lot of things that happen. I think I'm okay with that, for now.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

sumi,

Ice (Ned's sword) was melted down and reforged into two Lannister swords. Joffrey got one (Widow's Wail), and Jaime got the other. He, lacking his sword hand, gives it (and a super-spiffy suit of armor and a horse) to Brienne and names it Oathkeeper (after her). So, same sword, different moment. Tyrion doesn't get a valyrian steel blade because his father is an utter asshole to him at every opportunity.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Anyone else supremely disappointed by Silicon Valley? I had such high hopes for it, and...meh. The only character I can remember less than an hour after watching it is the redheaded secretary, because I went to college with her. (And hey, good for Jill! Her hair looks great in this show!)

But instead of this being the good version of Betas, it's just the expensive looking version with no female lead. It's Mike Judge so I'll give it some time to find its feet, but man, what a let-down.

G-d, the Jon/Ygritte theme (heard at the end of Jon's appearance before Aemon, Ser Alliser, and Janos Slynt) is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I think I've ever heard.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That was great!
