“I'm here, only I'm broken. Will you ... will you fix me ... my legs, I mean?”
“No. That is beyond my powers. You will never walk again, Bran, but you will fly.”
I gotta be up in 4 hrs it’s 4 am anyways heres some bran & arya. They are judging u. Shit talking. Gossiping. One might even say spilling the tea.
Hello! I hope you're doing well! 💗 I'd love it if you could draw Sansa and Bran 💗
Hiiiiii 🥹 ☺️nice to see you again!!! I adore your requests💕💕💕, ok ok, the context of the illustration is sad, but considering Grrm separates House Stark since book 1 and he gives us very few goodbye scenes between the characters, I wanted to draw what Sansa and Bran’s farewell (+ Arya) would be like 😌
He almost did that now, before he remembered that he was a prince, and almost a man grown.
something we don’t talk about enough is how bran watched jaime and cersei bone without their consent, which is really predatory behavior. abusive maybe.
I think we also don’t talk enough about how Bran letting himself be thrown out the window was really traumatic for Jaime. Bran really shouldn’t have let that happen, he should have been more considerate about how his decision to fall would affect Jaime
Jaime’s reaction to throwing him out was merely a defensive response—what Bran did was not only intrusive, aggressive and stupid, it also put Jaime in a vulnerable position, open to attacks and threats. Yes, Bran was only seven/eight, but he’s got to learn boundaries somehow. Blaming Jaime for Bran’s wrongdoings is ageism against adults, especially against a man with a dark past such as him, which is a no-no. Intriguing how Bran stans ignore this.
And Jaime is literally femme coded so bran’s actions were misogynistic as well
d&d:
- gave bran as little screen time as they could from the very beginning
- ignoring how he handled his disability except for a few scenes
- focused more on theon than bran in s2
- cut down any connection he has with winterfell and people working inside the castle
- instead of exploring bran’s powers and his destiny, they cut him from season 5 because they ran out of book material when they barely used any of that material
- fast tracked bran’s training making it as confusing as they could
- made bran’s powers all about showing jon’s parents instead of letting us see what happened the last time the night king attacked or bran watching his mother run riverrun when she was his age or bran watching the children use their powers against the andals
- took away bran’s personality and identity for no good reason. i mean the last 3 eyed raven had emotions, he wasn’t robotic. then again he could walk
- gave bran so few scenes in s7 they might as well have cut him again
- made him bait. bran sacrificed so much just so that he could sit in the godswood. there was no cool interesting power, we didn’t see the night king’s backstory. all d&d cared about was shocking people with arya killing the night king who was bran’s nemesis
- barely gave him any scenes in s8. if it wasn’t for isaac bran wouldn’t be so enjoyable
- didn’t bother to show bran’s coronation like they did sansa’s
- made his small council meeting all about tyrion
- didn’t add bran to the stark montage
and people thought king bran came from these 2 clowns. as if that’s not bad enough, the fandom decided to compete with d&d to see who can be more ableist.
I’ve heard they didn’t like Issac. (they also apparently didn’t like Nik)
but from them to know bran will be King since S3 and do nothing….ugh.
While I agree with all that, cutting Bran from the Stark montage might no be out of the left field.
Isaac said that Bran isn’t Bran anymore, only 5% of him is. The character says he’s not Bran either, Meera said he died in the 3ER cave. We (well, Bran fans) all supposed that Bran would become less robotic but he really never did.
Furthermore, Bran had to accept Sansa’s claim to independence (she did have an army outside) but he banished his brother to a place he hated and was murdered at. Bran’s first vision includes seeing Jon miserable at the Wall, he knows what he’s sentencing him to.
The endgame of any assimilation plot (including the way GRRM used in other stories) is either embrace individuality and lose the power of the hivemind, or embrace collectivity and keep the power. In the end, Bran has his powers and the actor / character / story keeps framing Bran as not Bran anymore.
More importantly, Bran took another sigil, he didn’t keep using the wolf. Jon kept Longclaw and he’ll one day he pardoned, Sansa has a wolf crown as Queen in the North and she’ll one day be the legacy of her house, Arya has the wolf sigil on her sails and she’ll one day come back.
Maybe it’s that simple and we should accept what they keep saying. Bran Stark “died” in that cave. What came out was a pseudo-divine being which resembles Bran in only 5%. The six kingdoms are being run by twelve-year old disabled Gandalf with a palantír. Either that, or a Big Brother style of government. It was popular thematic when GRRM started writing ASOIAF.
in the books meera calls bran robb's "true heir". before the show ending and even still now in some circles, there has been speculation/theories about KITN Bran. (along with similar endgame theories for all his siblings) however i think given the show ending what it means is that bran is robb's true heir in the sense that robb was crowned king in the south, he spent his campaign in the south, & he was part of a war that saw a lot of devastation for westeros. bran may not have been crowned KITN but he was still crowned a king in the south like robb and he will be his true heir in that he will help to rebuild westeros.
The sea is hundreds of miles away. I know. It’s just a stupid dream.
