„When I was a lad I found an injured goshawk and nursed her back to health. Proudwing, I named her. She would perch on my shoulder and flutter from room to room after me and take food from my hand, but she would not soar.

Time and time again I would take her hawking, but she never flew higher than the treetops.

Robert called her Weakwing. He owned a gyrfalcon named Thunderclap who never missed her strike. One day our great-uncle Ser Harbert told me to try a different bird. I was making a fool of myself with Proudwing, he said, and he was right…“

Here have young Stannis with Proudwing. And also Stannis being more comfortable around animals than other humans bc that just really fits.

(Not me again with an amazing and complex background)

ACOK prologue is not talked about enough and it honestly continues to haunt me despite being so short. to introduce a character (stannis) who was only previously mentioned as cold and harsh and unlikeable through the eyes of the one person that loves him and tragically tries to save him one last time … is insane.

#and when i say acok prologue is one of my favorite chapters in all of asoiaf #asoiaf #stannis baratheon

"the only other adult in the room" is such a. theme. in asoiaf. i think of it endlessly with sandor, the huge terrifying monster of a man renowned for his physical strength and intimidation who does everything a 12 year old boy tells him to and stands aside to watch a little girl be brutalized by men smaller than him. stannis watching his brother hit his own son, his own nephew, so hard he thinks it kills him. illyrio helping viserys sell his 13 year old sister into sexual slavery. there is always another adult in the room. they are always doing nothing.

Cersei is as gentle as King Maegor, as selfless as Aegon the Unworthy, as wise as Mad Aerys. She never forgets a slight, real or imagined. She takes caution for cowardice and dissent for defiance. And she is greedy. Greedy for power, for honor, for love.
