Questionable Questing

Surprising with the last bit from him from Hurik on how scary he is. What do you think of Ygrite's part? And Bess, how was Bess?

Bess is a slut. lol. But she has enough self awareness and control to understand not to just shag up with anything that moves, but instead pick someone that'll take care of her and their kids, and also someone that won't stand in the way of her goals and dreams. But she's definitely the kind of girl to get mind broken into a mindless cow if she's not careful.

What do you think of her merchant smarts and her personality as a character outside of porn?
Honestly she's not going to get mind broken. Bastard's Glory in contrast to Frozen Dream is less porny in logic.

Like I said a remarkable amount of self control and awareness contrasted nicely with someone who knows if she lets herself indulge she knows she'll go nuts with it.

Interesting. Sounding like you had fun with her which is good. How was Ygrite's part of the update?

It's nice to see her acting more diplomatic and I like how the freefolk she was meeting with clearly wanted a deal as much as Ygritte did but was playing hard to get to earn some more concessions. It's a hard balance to write, but you wrote it well.

I did some parts but the bulk was Jackal. What do you think of our take on Wildlings vs canon, more depth?

Definitely more depth in some ways, yours feels a lot more humans than the murder rapes machine George wrote, but something he did a little bit better is really emphasis how bitter wilding rivalries could become. Not just with Kneelers and the wall, but how you had certain tribes that were waging wars of literal genocide against each other. Helped emphasis how difficult a king beyond the wall was.

I sleep

I'll keep the tribal wars in mind for Jackal. I like with the Dothraki did not like how Martin did the fur covered savages bit. Why don't the Wildlings have tech adapted to their living conditions? Where's the social structure even if it isn't a formal government. This man be using outdated sterotypes too much

And if you research the Mongols you understand how lame the Dothraki are in comparison. One blog has this really funny bit where it mentions how the Dohtraki killing sheep and having no herds besides horses is nuts for managing a food supply

How killing horses undermines how expensive and important they are to travel and warfare and how a nomadic society like that doesn't like to kill horses. Both for cultural and economic reasons

I sleep too, but something else the Mongols were king at is horse archers which would've been so much cooler to watch on TV and in the books. Just hordes of horses incricling armies pelting them with arrows and the minute the army organizes and starts to fight back, the horses flee off into the wastes only to appear again in a day or two to continually harass them.

At work party for my birthday. After talk

Drunk and home. Can text

How was party? Been doing some cleaning and organizing for my family that's visiting tomorrow. Took a trip to good will earlier to get rid of clutter and then later hanging paintings. That kind of stuff.

I said such horrible drunken shit with the lads between silly remarks. Happy that only those two popped up as their very dirty with humor. Wrestling game was awesome

Want to chat Moat Calin?

Zelo

Fucking coffee. I mentioned how I've been in and out of the store a lot? Forgot the coffee. I don't drink it, but my family does and it'll be really awkward when they bring up the Coffee machine in the corner of the kitchen gathering dust and I don't have anything. It'll probably be the first time I've used the thing since I moved to Arizona. lol.
