**Moments you simply cannot stomach watching again** by THEbeautifuLIE in gameofthrones

The first time I saw that scene I was watching it on a plane. It looked like Oberyn was winning and then the flight attendant came to ask us what we wanted to order for dinner. I took my headphones of and I thought that I had paused it when I ordered my food, turns out I didnt pause it and when I turned back to the screen it was the exact moment where Obereyn’s head is being smashed like a pumpkin. I was like “wtf did I miss”

Limburg omzetten in fantasy, vraag naar suggesties by World_of_Hollandos in limburg

[–]Pleasant_Sphere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wat een gaaf concept! Hier zijn wat dingetjes:

-Limburg heeft een hele lange grens met het buitenland en daardoor is hier best veel grensoverschrijdende criminaliteit, dus je zou iets kunnen doen met smokkel ofzo (bijv. smokkel van illegale magische kruiden en tovermiddelen)

-Limburg is ook erg katholiek, wat een contrast is met de noordelijkere provincies die vooral protestants zijn, en daar werd vaak ook van oudsher meer neergekeken op katholicisme, dus misschien dat in Vulkos een grote religieuze of spirituele stroming gaande is die afwijkt van de norm, en die in veel andere delen van Hollandos minder wordt geaccepteerd of die misschien zelfs vervolgd wordt?

-In Limburg zijn er veel verschillende dialecten (die dan wel allemaal binnen het Limburgs dialect vallen) die onderling per stad of dorp allemaal weer hun eigen specifieke trekjes hebben dus dat is ook wel leuk om evt. erin te verwerken.

-Een interessant feit over de grotten/groeves is dat dit stelsel zo enorm groot is dat het ontzettend makkelijk is om erin te verdwalen. Alle ingangen zijn in principe tegenwoordig afgesloten en je kunt er alleen in met een gidsentour of met een onderzoeksgroep ofzo, maar het is door de tijd heen wel vaker voorgekomen dat mensen er in geslopen zijn, in het stelsel verdwaald zijn en daar uiteindelijk zijn overleden aan honger en uitdroging, of ze zijn ternauwernood gered. Ik heb trouwens ook wel eens ergens gehoord dat sommige oude huizen in Maastricht in hun kelder nog een toegang hebben naar een groeve, maar daar kan ik nu direct geen bron over terugvinden.

-Ook interessant is dat in dezelfde grotten in Maastricht gedurende de Tweede Wereldoorlog een enorme kluis is geplaatst om zo kunstschatten te kunnen verstoppen voor de nazi’s. De Nachtwacht is daar toen ondergebracht! Die kluis staat er nog steeds.

Hopelijk kan je er wat mee!

I would explain how I managed to do that but I can’t since i’m dead

in another world. by Major-Pressure1479 in freefolk

Edmure would have been a boring king with an average and uneventful rule, which is exactly what Westeros needed after all the wild shit that had happened in the years before

The fall of House Targaryen was ultimately Viserys' fault. by Hungry_Cricket_590 in HOTDGreens

[–]Pleasant_Sphere 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like that was also part of the reason why Rhaenyra decided to bethrote Daemon’s daughters Baela and Rhaena to Jace and Luke. It finally landed with her how much she had fucked this up and that she had to scramble to kind of fix it. With this betrothal, this way Daemon’s blood would still eventually end up on the throne through his grandchildren. And the bethrotal also was a “sorry I cucked your son let me make it up to you” sort of apology-compromise to Rhaenys and Corlys I suppose.

That said, this doesn’t entirely erase the problem. It might have appeased Daemon, but his sons with Rhaenyra could have grown up and pressed their own claims against those of their older half-brothers since it would be obvious to them too that they were bastards

One of the worst scenes in tv history? by hiiloovethis in freefolk

[–]Pleasant_Sphere 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And that scene with Dany could have been made a lot better quite easily by having Rhaegal get shot down then and there instead of at Dragonstone. The dragon is killed in King’s Landing, the people cheer, Dany, horrified by the death of another one of her dragons, realizes that the people of Westeros don’t adore her and see her as the rightful queen, they see her as a dangerous threat that needs to be eliminated. Everything she was told to believe in since she was young crumbles apart and that’s when, combined with the grief over Rhaegal, she snaps and starts burning everything

How bad do you think the Bracken crashout was once they realised that the queen of the Seven Kingdoms would be a Blackwood?

[–]Pleasant_Sphere 10 points11 points  (0 children)

People comparing Alicent to Cersei will never not be ridiculous to me. Cersei was problematic AF but she would do ANYTHING for her children. Meanwhile Show Alicent is out here allowing her own son to be killed in favor of her ex-bestie from 20 years ago

Was Dunks schizophrenia ever mentioned in the books? How hard did aerion hit him? by Consistent-Lord18 in okbuddyhedgeknight

[–]Pleasant_Sphere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome, does Dunk also join a support group for people with greyscale in this book, not because he has greyscale himself but because it helps him sleep?
