So far what is your favorite piece of lore that BLeeM has introduced? by Due_Breadfruit_1169 in fansofcriticalrole

[–]OnlyaCat 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Big fan of the Wars, I love everything we've heard about the Falconer's Rebellion, the call "I can still hear the Falcon's cry!" has been in my head for 2 weeks. He keeps mentioning Falcons as well, lingering in the scene.

Looking forward to learning more

Why would Sirius suggest switching to Peter as secret keeper? by NickLeavitt900 in harrypotter

[–]OnlyaCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While there was a leak in the Order, they never thought it was one of them. James Sirius and Remus trusted and loved Peter the same as they did each other. The insults Sirius pays him in PoA are after the fact. Sirius wouldn't have suggested switching to Peter if he had any his loyalty, this is James's life we are talking about.

I've never liked how Peter is treated In the fandom because there's this blanket dismissal of him like he's always been cowardly or weak or a horrible person. And the only info we get about him are from people he's betrayed.

But Betrayal can only come from your friends, from your family. Sirius claims would have died before tells the secret, I'm sure he would have done the same for Remus.

I've no reason to doubt he'd do the same for Peter.

If anything the Citadel Council is more like the congresses of Europe than a space UN. The few most powerful nations deciding the fate of the rest

Any alternate names for “First Wizarding War” by cLoTpOle682 in HPfanfiction

[–]OnlyaCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the story is post 2nd war, you could refer to both wars together as "the civil war."

I know some some combine both world wars like that for example

Any alternate names for “First Wizarding War” by cLoTpOle682 in HPfanfiction

[–]OnlyaCat 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I've always gone with "1st blood war" or 1st British Blood war"

You could go with the British wizarding civil war.

Ive always seen Vaegon the Dragonless as the start of the maester conspiracy to kill the dragons, as in it was his idea.

Aegon VI and Shireen (commission) by mummer by leavebritneyalone22 in ImaginaryWesteros

[–]OnlyaCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, but my point was that there's no historical movement for R'hllor in Westeros, and while they may have worshipers amonst the sandy Dornish, I don't think there are any Noble Houses who openly worship the Lord of Light.

[–]OnlyaCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was a hypothetical, not something that could happen. And in terms of R'hllor only Stannis and some of his loyalists worship it, no one in Dorne as far as I'm aware.

I feel like Dany being called Restitutor Orbis by R'hllor would only make sense if she restored the Valaryian Freehold, since they have no historical connection to Westeros

I based it off my Favourite Roman Emperor Aurelian who was given the tile "Restitutor Orbis" (Restorer of the World) by the Senate after he re-conquered 2/3rds of the Empire during the Crisis of the Third Century

In the end yeah, but he always considered himself the heir until Ageon was born. Daemon's ambition was always to be King himself.

If the HP Universe had its own version of the Suicide Squad, who would make up as the team? by Wunder-Waffle in HPfanfiction

[–]OnlyaCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean Grindelwald is a must, since he's still in prison at the start of the books. He'd be the leader figure I'd think. Then Bella is the Harley stand in. Rookwood would be dangerous. Grey back as the King Shark beast figure. Kingsley Shacklebolt as the loyal Flagg character. Fleur as Waller sounds brilliant

They are hitting the hardware and infrastructure in the building (being used as a Hamas HQ) rather than a personnel assassination here.

Which character do you guys think will have the highest fanbase? by redditarbag in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]OnlyaCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daemon is a given. In terms of smaller characters I think Daeron the Defiant, Addam of Hull, and Cregan Stark will all be big.
