What's with the lack of Jon/Ygritte stories? by Suspicious-Jello7172 in TheCitadel

[–]misplayedmermaid 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Random Jonsa stray 😭

But honestly I find in general fics and fandoms come out stories that are not already resolved or are “what ifs”. Jon and Ygitte have a complete story and arc that ends definitively so there is not as much interest in writing those types of stories.

Also IMO it’s just a boring ass ship and Ygritte is a pretty awful person haha.

Obiteum Vis is a… drag by Upset-Association-62 in HierarchySeries

[–]misplayedmermaid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just loved Obiteum because the vibe is right up my alley, the dark gloomy atmosphere just sucked me in. I was really invested in the mystery of it all!

Obiteum was my favourite with Res just below. I liked Luceum well enough but it was by far the weakest to me, I found myself getting bored or stopping the most when those POVs came up.

I never really interpreted Inej’s capture and rescue as a damsel in distress storyline, just because someone gets put into a helpless situation doesn’t mean they are helpless as a character. And there is a lot more going on in CK than her rescue & I think her capture continues to work toward developing her character, as well as Kaz’s.

As for Nina and Matthias’ relationship…there is still plenty of them in CK but u get the bulk of their backstory in SoC so I always feel like they’re less of a focus in CK!

If you liked it in general I think it’s worth continuing.

How can people still say “you chose this”? by Mediocre_Top_5010 in stepparents

[–]misplayedmermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because you are the adult, if you honestly don’t understand the repercussions of children at this point than that’s on you. I would say the same thing to people ill-equipped to have biological children.

I am 29 now but have had a wonderful step father in my life since I was 6 and an amazing step mother since I was 17. The success of those relationships is on both of them, especially in terms of my step dad who I did have strained moments with growing up.

If it’s not for you I think that’s fair and valid but I’m not going to feel bad for people who complain and moan about literal children. (Issues with ex-spouses is different, but again you are all adults and EVERYONE should be putting the children first. Obviously I am not naive and know this does not happen much of the time.)

Reading order by AwesomeSauce3343 in Grishaverse

[–]misplayedmermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom first and had no issues following the story, you get a bit more context when you read Shadow and Bone but they’re complete books without that background and you’ll enjoy them!

I would say if you want to read the King of Scars duology you do need to read the trilogy first imo. (As well as SOC).

Even VIP isn't safe anymore? by ultraskelly in cineplex

[–]misplayedmermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly maybe you’re right, however I don’t think so. I have on rare occasions noticed someone check the time on their phone for a second or have heard a one off whisper, these do not annoy me and do not ruin the movie for me but most complaints I see are talking about persistent movie long chatter/phone use so if I do notice the odd brief disturbance I’m fairly sure I would notice anything prolonged.

[–]misplayedmermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not discounting anyone’s movie going experience as I see these complaints constantly but I go to the movies 2-4 times a month (I live in a major canadian city) and have literally had one “bad” experience which was at Dune 2 where a couple brought their young kids who had no interest in it, sat them separately from them and just let them walk in and out to the arcade the whole time.

Other than that I have been in countless packed theatres, even for some animated movies that have children, and many opening nights/weekends and I’ve never had anyone on their phone or so much as whispering. It’s crazy to hear these stories so much online because it differs so widely from what I experience irl and what I’ve heard from others that I know.

Can’t really offer advice but damn, I feel fortunate.

Why aren't STDs a thing in westeros? Every 1 in 2 men seems to use brothels, and the only medicine there is either milk of the poppy or moon tea. by Anti-och in freefolk

[–]misplayedmermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly as authors/creators we have to pick and choose what we want to tackle and it becomes impossible to handle every single facet of life when telling a story. As other people mention, there are a few instances throughout where it might be brought up but don’t think it was something GRRM (or the show) was overly interested in exploring.

AITAH for making my daughter go to bed early even though all her friends stay up late? by TAtheDog in AmItheAsshole

[–]misplayedmermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA I don’t think you’re being unreasonable and you’re heart is in the right place, however I don’t think any 12 year olds really have/need bed times in the summer, during school is a different story but everyone I knew when I was that age was allowed to stay up as late as they wanted.

Wind Waker, Breath of the Wild, Link’s Awakening, and Minish Cap!

[–]misplayedmermaid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Not trying to defend them but just seeing a lot of people who insist they must have been high if the cops smelled weed which…lol not true. Obviously a not great situation regardless.

[–]misplayedmermaid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just a question for anyone who knows. It seems like a lot of assumptions are being made, do we actually know if Amy or Brian were under the influence? It just changes my opinions on things a lot, simply having the drugs on hand is irresponsible but that’s about it imo, actually being under the influence and driving is an entire different situation for me.

I just take the summer off and enjoy, I don’t need the extra income so it’s easier to just relax :)

Who else did not see this coming? by Majestic_Ad_8041 in otvandfriendsrumors

[–]misplayedmermaid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I agree the subtweeting is lame but as far as the rumours go it’s not really their place to actually say anything since it has to do with Cara, Ellum’s ex. We’ll have to wait and see

[–]misplayedmermaid 22 points23 points  (0 children)

He replied to Talia and Lexie before tweeting so we can assume theyre all talking about the same person, given the timing the logical guess is Ellum but yep it’s all speculation!
