I don't update this a lot anymore, do I?

At least, not with entries about my life.

DOES ANYONE ELSE HATE THE NEW POST AN ENTRY FORMAT OR IS IT JUST ME?

Anyway. Jaime/Brienne has consumed my life over the past couple of weeks, as you may or may not have guessed. I just -- I have so many fucking feelings and I seriously CANNOT FUCKING WAIT until season 3 starts because I need to see all of this shit play out in live action instead of just in my head. I NEED IT. I NEED IT RIGHT NOW. Like, I'm not even gonna get into these two and how they've ruined my life because I talk about it so much on Tumblr already and I don't want to repeat myself. I just... yeah. I'm really excited about the fic series I'll be writing for them. I have so many ideas, and it's nice to not be tied down to a chaptered fic. I can just write what I want, when I want. I can have huge gaps in between events, too, and I don't necessarily need to explain absolutely everything. It's gonna be fun. I just hope I can finish it before this obsession fades away (and then, inevitably, resurfaces once the show comes back).

Also, Boardwalk has finally started!! I am so fucking looking forward to Margaret this season, you don't even know. That last scene of her on the beach was so gorgeous I just cannot get over it. SHE'LL RULE THE WORLD, JUST WAIT.

I forget, have you been reading the books at all, Jackie? I still haven't gotten 'round to DWD, and I tend to blur all the others together, but your hopes are high for canon, I take it? Moi aussi! People who deny the (sub)text between them must be reading a different book. GRRM has clearly written their slow falling-in-love, and it's quite gorgeous.

I've read them all except ADWD, yeah. I did read Jaime's chapter in that, though, because I'm insane and all. And I know a couple of other things that happen in it. My hopes are... I guess they're high? I mean, there's no way these two are gonna get a traditional happy ending, but they just. Have. To. Get. Together. In some fashion. Otherwise, what the hell was the point of all of that? I mean, the subtext is text, pretty much, let's be real here.

A lot of people say that while their connection is strong, they're "just" friends, and while I think their friendship is an incredibly beautiful thing as well, there are too many other things going on for that to be all it is. I mean, I guess you could make that argument for Jaime, as his feelings are a little more ambiguous and muddled (though I would vehemently disagree), but to deny that Brienne is in love with him? That's just being deliberately obtuse. That or you didn't read her chapters very carefully.
