Silly Ned (-sorry...)
...I think I must have been halfway into A Dance with Dragons: Part 1 when I suddenly felt the need to draw chibi!Ned. I've never drawn chibis before... XD
Everyone: meet Silly Ned Stark.
Eddard Stark seems like the last character to inspire a silly version - but maybe that's why George R. R. Martin drove me in that direction.
The silliness was directly occasioned when Davos Seaworth finds himself on some godforsaken island. His host mentions Ned Stark passing through. Davos's jaw drops and he says, "Ned Stark was here?"
My reaction was much the same. Eddard Stark has been everywhere! Clearly he had to be done away with in the first book because otherwise he'd have hijacked the story. Ned was here! Ned was there! Ned washed ashore with a girl in his arms! Ned took this town! Ned was leading the van! Ned took that castle! It makes me wonder what Robert was up to during the Rebellion. I mean, SuperNed was doing all the hard work...
I get the feeling, reading all this Ned Backstory four books after Ned lost his head, that Westeros is falling apart because Ned is dead. Tsk. And winter is coming. :P
And with that, I'm almost running out of ASoIaF. I am currently 240 pages into the last volume and 6 episodes into the tv series. It has dawned on me that soon I'll be waiting for George R. R. Martin to publish new stuff. *sigh*
Also, I'm thinking of joining![[profile]](https://imgprx.livejournal.net/a71f85dcad6525b8d87497754a959c20f3ef129723fd1ee52652aa4ce264bbc2/P2Wkxmt6hAfgxS9woo0DAQJIremCzaw5zUnNTr9UwMPa_xObnMWgBl4vFF44C150pAxFkjqcL0FRDhBWzE9jrBBa2yOea_Q:0qV4WGcVLH8cukjXnGLxuQ)
westerosorting, and have discovered that I can't decide on a third favourite character. After Ned and Tyrion, I can't really think of one character that really rises above the others. So I'm trying to decide between
- Cat Tully
- Sam Tarly
- Brienne of Tarth
- Jaime Lannister
- Bran Stark
- Jon Snow
It's difficult... If I sift out the characters who have character traits that I really don't like, I'm left with Bran, Jon and Sam; but Cat and Jaime are more entertaining than any of them. Cat I don't like entirely because she reminds me too much of myself. Jaime I don't like entirely because, even though he's improved a great deal, I still can't stand his swagger. What to do?
...Or how ASoIaF dominates my life ;P.
