That was cauliflower!!!

A THIRD VEGETABLE HAS HIT JAIME

Can't stop thinking about Aerys considering the third head being the prince that was promised combined with the theory of Jaime and Cersei being his children.

Jaime... his third child...

(I mean, I don't hold too much from the theory of Aerys being his father, but the chosen one being the pelted cabbage guy in the background of all the Targ drama...ahahaha)

sorry but I do think that would be the funniest possible outcome. Dany like im TPTWP, Jon like no it’s me, stannis like no it’s me, and then bran announces that actually it’s jaime bc of some affair nobody knew about and Jaime’s the younger twin so technically he’s a third child and jaime just like

I'm really happy that you liked the jaime appearances on the play (baby idealistic jaime and cabbages!!!) and I want to thank you for answering all those asks and going into so much detail! Truly the fandom's saviour 🙂‍↕️

I LOVE BABY JAIME and I would die for him. might actually have died w him if those rumours about rogue pyrotechnics were true. and the cabbage scene has changed my life. I was like yes…. they get it…. they GET IT…. and they have given me a dumb fucking joke I will be making for the rest of my goddamn life.

also I feel vindicated af like even though they mostly only adapted what was already canon it left no room for the weird bad faith twists that ppl do w his character. it was the guy I imagined. yay

How do you feel about the JB age gap? Some people feel it is problematic and I wondered what you thought

tbh I once wrote like 500 words in response to an ask like this explaining why I don’t have a problem w the age gap and trying to justify it but atp I don’t think it’s even worth that level of dissection. I don’t need to justify it. Jaime and Brienne are both consenting adults and that’s really all there is to it.

as for the people who say it’s ‘problematic’ - honestly I don’t believe that they’re genuinely sat there troubled by the jb age gap. they’re reading asoiaf, where there are literally hundreds of other things they could be worrying about than two adults having consensual sex.

maybe there are a few people out there for whom the age gap is a bit of a personal ick, and like…. ok go with god if that’s you. but most of these people just don’t like the pairing because they ship a competing pairing/they don’t like Jaime and have made that part of their fandom identity/they enjoy maintaining a ‘Brienne deserves better’ shtick without ever meaningfully engaging with Brienne as a character (probably for one of the two former reasons actually), and the age gap discourse is how they try and make out that actually they’re right for hating jb and you should feel guilty and ashamed if you ship it.

and sorry to those people but I don’t feel bad at all. and I also don’t believe they truly give a shit, it’s purely performative and they’re just making up contrived reasons to make other ppl feel bad, bc that’s what fandom does.

ultimately if there’s any party equipped to be discussing the age gap, it’s jb fandom who are actually interested in the role it plays within the relationship. but really all it comes down to is the fact that Brienne has been an adult woman since she met Jaime (ppl will pretend she was 17 in ASOS to make their point and they’re lying - or what like you say you feel strongly about this but you can’t even check the wiki to see if you have ur facts straight?? lol), so w/e.

Do you have a proper ASoIaF overall fave?
