Happy 31st Birthday to Rose Leslie ! (born on February 9th, 1987)
The End ?
Hi ! If anyone is still following this blog / reading this message, I wanted to warn you that it will likely not be updated anymore from now on. The passion for Game of Thrones I had being now gone, and having other projects I want to invest myself into, I don’t have the motivation to keep it active.
However I won’t delete it and will remain on Tumblr to take care of my Rose Leslie blog, roselesliesource.tumblr.com, where I still post edits and gifs regularly, and you can also find me on Twitter (not that there’s anything really interesting to find there though, especially with GoT season finally being over).
Thank you to everyone who has followed this blog and the ones with whom I talked over the years, I wish you all the best x
you know… there’s something terribly wrong re: the concept of Jon’s “real name” being “Aegon Targaryen”. He has a real name. It’s Jon Snow. It’s what people call him, it’s what he calls himself.

Easy for you to say, he thought back. You died brave in battle, storming the castle of a foe. I’m going to die a turncloak and a killer.
The series got timid about making its characters pay the price, and Game of Thrones’ credit has run out. That the show uses spectacle as a crutch for its graceless Heffalump of a plot is putting it mildly. At this point, spectacle is basically all it has. Poorly explained, ill-plotted, unreasonably stupid spectacle at that. I wrote about the unreasonable plot acrobatics of “Eastwatch,” about the show’s increasingly lazy reliance on magic, and about the odd misdirection of “The Spoils of War.”
“Who are you?” he would ask her every day. “No one,” she would answer, she who had been Arya of House Stark, Arya Underfoot, Arya Horseface. She had been Arry and Weasel too, and Squab and Salty, Nan the cupbearer, a grey mouse, a sheep, the ghost of Harrenhal…but not for true, not in her heart of hearts. In there she was Arya of Winterfell, the daughter of Lord Eddard Stark and Lady Catelyn, who had once had brothers named Robb and Bran and Rickon, a sister named Sansa, a direwolf called Nymeria, a half brother named Jon Snow. In there she was someone…but that was not the answer he wanted.

It was a futile thought.
Rose Leslie + Appearances & Interviews in 2015 “I’m taking everything in my stride, and if I’m fortunate enough to carry on working, I hope there will be longevity in my career. I feel there will be times when I will be working on jobs I love, and then there will be in-between periods where I hold back to find something that I’m passionate about. I think it’s very important to make sure I’m dedicated and invested in my future projects.”

It’s crazy! But I do feel more confident when I have short hair. After shaving it off for Stranger Things, I just embraced it as much as possible. It was so freeing. - Milie Bobby Brown for Teen Vogue
You need her, as she needs you.
