b) a reason he/she sucks
c) a reason he/she is amazing
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them

I thought you were in classes all day! This meme is popping up all over my f-list right now. I feel like I already know your answers for some characters. So, hmm, Aeron Greyjoy?

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I was, I only just came home. ^^ I just went online for like 5min during my lunch break because I wanted to see if anyone had already commentted on my fic. Gods, my eyes hurt from reading medieval handwriting all day. Anyway, Aeron.

a) a fact about them from my personal canon: he likes tentacle porn. Or is that canon?
b) a reason he/she sucks: he's just a liiiiiil bit too religious. But it means he's against Euron, so that's cool.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: he says epic stuff in a booming crazy voice. ^^ My brother reading Greyjoy chapters to me made me like Aeron. ;)
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: he should meet Melisandre.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Aeron/Cthulhu
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: pretty much most peeople who aren't either tentacle monsters or his brothers. ;) Or Melisandre.

[identity profile] outboxed.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Medieval handwriting is so eye-straining. I admire your perseverence.

This is so lolarious. I can't even imagine what would happen if Aeron met Melisandre. Maybe he'd try to drown her to see if her red god would save her? Haha.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Especially if you spend a whole day on it. I was so glad we got a couple of breaks in between.

I think drowning Melisandre would be such a fitting end. ^^ Ae4ron is generally made of hilarity, all Greyjoys are.

Ah ah JUAN BORGIA! Just because ^^.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
a) a fact about them from my personal canon: erm ... no idea
b) a reason he/she sucks: he's a giant douchebag, dumb as hell and his face makes me want to punch him.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: he isn't. I have no idea how anyone can like this guy.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: didn't the real one die at some point? Please die soon on the show.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Juan/Micheletto's hands when he snaps his neck
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: anyone I like ;D

Sorry, but this douchenozzle seriously annoys me. Does he even HAVE redeeming qualities?

Tywin Lannister

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
a) a fact about them from my personal canon: can't think of anything, I'm usually too awed by canon!Tywin to think about head canon.
b) a reason he/she sucks: the whole Tyrion&Tysha thing was kind of over the top. He could have just have her killed, that would have been enough.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: everything else. He's intelligent, ruthless, a political and strategic genius, everything his siblings say about him make me squee, and the whole background story with Joanna is just tragic. And he's hot as hell. ^^
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: he could still be alive?
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): TYWIN/ROOSE ^^ And Tywin/Kevan should happen, why is there only boring brothercest in this fandom?
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: most people.

[identity profile] sternflammenden.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Tywin/Roose should have been canon. Tywin/Kevan makes sense - incest could be a Lannister "thing," sort of a secret shame/tradition.

I miss Tywin. Too bad he's not still around. A lot of my interest in the books waned when he died, and that's why I got so interested in the Boltons. No one else was as good of a threat.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I love brothercest, and I love both Tywin and Kevan, and they WERE incredibly close ...

Tywin was amazing. I hate how GRRM kills off all the politically capable people in Westeros. It gives me this uneasy feeling that he's setting up a Westeros that has no alternative to Daenerys. :/

[identity profile] sternflammenden.livejournal.com 2011-10-23 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'd rather have Tommen on the Iron Throne. He's more competent!

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
a) a fact about them from my personal canon: so much! he's bi, he desperately wanted to have a son, he married Selyse because an ugly woman wouldn't cheat on him, he used to pray like a good boy before his parents died ... I could go on and on.
b) a reason he/she sucks: he made a HUGE mistake not talking to Renly right when he found out that Robert's "heirs" weren't actually his children. I get that he didn't like Renly, but he shoul have talked to him about that, even while Robert was alive.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: everything else. He's proud, principled, but pragmatic, he's just, honest, loyal, unselfish, capable and utterly dutiful.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: KING OF WESTEROS!!! ^^ In more than just name.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Stannis/Davos, Stannis/Jon, Stannis/Sansa. You all know why. ^^
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: Melisandre. And I honestly think less of people who do. One of my big hate ships.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 05:57 pm (UTC)(link)
a) a fact about them from my personal canon: he's a chubby chaser. ^^ No, wait, that's canon.
b) a reason he/she sucks: treason, murder, rape, take your pick.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: his intelligence, his awesome low voice, his creepiness.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: I'd love for him to get away with all his bullshit and live happily ever after with Fat Walda at the Dreadfort.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Roose/Walda, Roose/Barbrey&Bethany (sternflammenden's fault), Roose/Tywin. ^^
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: Ramsay. DNW Boltoncest.

I just enjoy corrupting the fandom. :)

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
You know I approve. :)

Sansa Stark

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay, I'm getting all my favourites here. ^^

a) a fact about them from my personal canon: erm, this is less personal canon than my interpretation of her, but I think Sansa is the kind of girl who should be with an older guy, not with someone her age.
b) a reason he/she sucks: she's really too naive for her own good, but that's getting better, I hope.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: she has incredible inner strength, even though it's not always apparent.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: get saved by Sandor, Brynden or Stannis, find out what LF did to her family and see him killed (after she helped bring him down), then marry Stannis and become his queen. ^^
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Stannis/Sansa. I love Sandor/Sansa in their canon dynamics, and I hope they'll meet again, but I like their love unconsummated, I don't want them to get together. And I can't really think of anyone other than Stannis whom I'd want to see married to Sansa.
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: LF. I despise LF/Sansa so much. Also, Tyrion. I don't know WTF is up with people who ship Tyrion/Sansa, they'd be miserable together. Hell, they WERE miserable together, and under no circumstances would they ever be happy.

[identity profile] ishi-chan.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
You're getting your favourites because I don't want to hear your answers if I posted Dany :P

xDDD btw I ship Tyrion/Sansa and the being miserable part is part of it xD but then again I also ship her with Jaime and anyone else she should hate/hates...

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
It would probably look like this: HATE HATE HATE RAAAAAGEEEEE MOUTH-FOAMING RAAAAAAGE HORRIFYING BRUTAL DEATHS HAAAATE!!! ;) But I mean there are many characters who are not my favourites but whom I don't despise either. ;)

Well, I get it when people ship it despite them being miserable, but when people go on about how Tyrion and Sansa could be totally awesome and happy and amazing together, I'm just like WHAT THE FUCKK??? His family murdered her family, he fucks everything that moves, he has no qualities that she likes in people and on top of that he's incredibly ugly. How does this translate into them being happy together?

[identity profile] ishi-chan.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
This is exactly why I won't follow you on tumblr :P It's my happy place where only things I love/like happen...

I think they could evolve into being happy over time if Sansa put her wishes into perspective...Tyrion was one of the very few people who was kind and considerate to her in Kings Landing, but that's obviously very AU and I think after Joffreys wedding and everything afterwards there'd be too much bitterness on his side (maybe both sides).
But then again I also ship Sansa with Willas Tyrell (I love that guy despite him never appearing or doing anything xD)

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think I even have any Daenerys hate on my tumblr. My tumblr just consists of STANNIS STANNIS STANNIS STANNIS DAVOS STANNIS STANNIS STANNIS JON STANNIS STANNIS STANNIS SANSA STANNIS STANNIS STANNIS ROOSE AND TYWIN AND STANNIS!!! It's pure Stannis love, really.

Sansa has simply learnt NEVER to trust a Lannister, no matter how kind they seem to be. And she really deserves so much better than him.
Sansa and Willas would have been adorable. It's maybe the only other Sansa ship I could live with, at least if Willas is as sweet as he seems.

I've seen :D I had a bioinformatics class last week and had a lot of time to hang out on tumblr in between doing stuff...I just don't think I love Stannis enough to read up on your and sternflammenden (I think it's them?) responses...

I have my own headcanon for Willas. I want him to appear in the books so badly. I could care less about a Loras POV, I just want WILLAS!!!!!!

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, fair enough. My tumblr is just too Stannis-y if you don't like Stannis all that much. ^^

Willas is probably the ture bad guy of Westeros, that's why they keep him hidden. He's like Roose Bolton but with curly hair. ;)

Lucrezia Borgia

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
a) a fact about them from my personal canon: can't think of anything, haven't given it that much thought. Other than that she probably knows about Cesare/Micheletto. ;)
b) a reason he/she sucks: does she? I need to rewatch the show, I barely remember any details.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: incest couples makes me happy, that's why.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: some shred of happiness instead of abusive husbands.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): only Cesare. And maybe her father. O:-)
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: nobody else. ^^

Jon Snow

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-22 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
a) a fact about them from my personal canon: erm ... he's a total sub in bed. ;)
b) a reason he/she sucks: he was a boring whiny emo kid for three books.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: 'cos he turned badass when they made him Lord Commander and because he's Stannis' braintwin.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: stay LC of the Watch forever or get on Stannis' Kingsguard, nothing else.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Jon/Wall and Jon/Stannis.
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: Jon/any love interest.

Walda Frey Bolton.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-23 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Help, this is going to be more difficult.

a) a fact about them from my personal canon: if anything it's stuff that you came up with and I only said "yes, that's an awesome idea" ;)
b) a reason he/she sucks: she IS a Frey.
c) a reason he/she is amazing: she and Roose are adorable, and she really seems to be a decent person. for the moment. (before the girly flowery flaying knife ;))
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: live happily ever after with Roose in the Dreadfort ^^
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): Roose
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: everyone else, Roose would not approve of his wife sleeping around. ;)

[identity profile] sternflammenden.livejournal.com 2011-10-23 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, the flaying knife is really just a traditional thing. She likes to freak people out with it. :D

I think that it would be funny if all of the Freys had Walder's annoying laugh.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-23 02:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Being married to a Bolton must have certain advantages. ;)

They probably do. Except that it's all high-pitched and even more annoying with the Frey women.

And now I'm imagining Tom Hulce's giggle in Amadeus. :)

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-23 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure I needed that mental image. Sound. ;)

[identity profile] deborahkla.livejournal.com 2011-10-24 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)

Ah, this is easy. Max Aue from The Kindly Ones

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2011-10-24 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Damn, I barely remember anything about this book. I need to reread it at some point (it really doesn't help that I forget everything about a book three days after reading it). Let's try.

a) a fact about them from my personal canon: I think canon is fun enough on its own. ^^
b) a reason he/she sucks: I suppose you could go with the whole SS part here. ;)
c) a reason he/she is amazing: It's MAX AUE. He's hilarious. And he writes gorgeous French. Well, his author really, but I still like the character for it. And his speeches to seduce naive young men are just epic.
d) a thing that I'd like to see happen to them: meet Landa&Hellstrom, trololol.
e) My ship of choice for that character (or why I don't have one): what was his BFF's name, Thomas? But tbh I didn't really ship Max with anyone.
f) someone that I can't/am unlikely to ship that character with: his sister. Not because of the incest, but because I didn't find that particular part of the story all that interesting.

[identity profile] deborahkla.livejournal.com 2011-10-24 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
a) It's a petty damn good canon!
b) I would think it difficult to find anything that sucks about Max Aue, too. Maybe that he wastes too much time thinking about his sister? ;-)
c) Ah, yes, poor Parthenau. He didn't stand a chance the minute Max opened his mouth.
d) OMG Aue/Landa/Hellstrom? How would that compare to your imagining of Heydrich/Landa/Hellstrom? The mind reels!
e) Yes, Thomas was his BFF. Personally, I can't help but wonder how he would scramble poor Stierlitz's brains.
f) I'd ship him even less with that stupid girlfriend of his, the one who kept coming back for more.
