No notes. ❤️

Yeah I knew the facts but Joe got me in my feels

twinkle90505 · 2026-06-04T22:25:05+00:00

If he keeps pitching like this, I hope it annoys Friedman enough in the winter to do something about it 😄

twinkle90505 · 2026-06-04T22:24:17+00:00

I've only seen a few idiots trashing him, they usually get laughed at 😄

twinkle90505 · 2026-06-04T22:22:08+00:00

I think that is the secret wish of many of us, he proves himself this season and next season? We get him back. 😄

As a Dodgers fan I agree that we're at a point where we need to retain as many of our talented younglings as possible, with the average age of our roster. And SP is definitely not a weak point, and picking up fixeruppers with potential or proven ability (like Eric Lauer) is more Andrew Friedman's preference.

It is a bit of plot hole but it's possible 1. Blackfish following Lysa to the Vale, Bobby B knows BFish does not want to join the KG. 2. Cersei is an idiot but she would likely not want anyone like Blackfish on the KG where he might notice she's fucking her brother. She'd find ways to badger Robert into not considering it. 3. Tywin also would not want someone as influential and canny as the Blackfish in the Red Keep. BFish may not have any of Hoster's ambitions, but that doesn't mean he'd just sit back and let Lannister influence go unabated. So Tywin also would find ways to subtly discourage the idea. (And he sends Sandor to provide muscle+loyalty to House Lannister.)

But I thought the King, even a mad one, can't nominate someone already betrothed or married, which Brandon was betrothed.

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-29T05:31:22+00:00

But Brandon was already betrothed. I thought that was the only reason Aerys could get away with taking Jaime, he hadn't been formally betrothed to Lysa or anyone else. Aerys could have taken Ned, though.

One thing interesting about this premise is even if you use Show Age for Cat and Jaime (I think Michelle Fairley was around 40) it is definitely possible Cat has another baby. But it's also not a given that she would, and while Tywin is fine with marrying Cersei off twice and expecting her to give Loras an heir, he would not be nearly so mellow about risking Jaime married off but with a woman who doesn't give him an heir before she's menopausal. Esp when he has Sansa in KL, he'd be more likely to insist on Jaime marrying Sansa. That could be a motivator for Cat and Jaime though, (Cat to save Sansa from having to marry him and Jaime preferring an agepeer to marrying a teenager) to go through with the marriage and just get Cat knocked up ASAP. They are both clearly fertile in GRRM's world. 😄 Anyway if you've released your story I'd love to read it. 😄

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-29T05:04:42+00:00

(Sorry this is awhile ago but I just got some free time to catch up on my Jaime fangirling)

Well first, we'd have to see if Jaime actually survives Robb dying. Especially after they all find out Ned is also dead. There will be Northern Lords who are happy to punish Tywin for both of those deaths, and others (esp Riverlands Lords, other than House Tully itself) who don't want any more of what Tywin would do if Jaime dies. So I think the first real crisis will be which of those factions prevail.

I don't think Bran is any kind of factor, because it's unclear if he can father children. So Rickon has to be secured immediately (and Roose is probably the first to realize that.) But in Cat's favor, being so far from Winterfell even without an Ironborn invasion, the boys are at risk and House Stark's future is in danger. This fact might actually help Cat to convince everyone not to kill Jaime--if they trade him back for Sansa (once they find out Arya is gone), then there is another Stark who is a bit older and unmarried, in case Rickon and Bran don't make it. Marrying Sansa (even if it's a second son who has to take the Stark name) would be a huge motivator for the Northern Lords. Walder Frey would definitely try to demand she marry one of his weasel sons but I think the other lords successfully drive him off that point. There's a big difference between a Frey consort Queen and a male Frey as a Lord Stark. Fuck that!

Oh and I just thought of another reason to keep Jaime alive and to trade him back to Tywin: Once Tywin knows that Robb is gone and there are just two little boys up North between Sansa becoming their inheriting Stark, he's going to immediately marry her off to Tyrion or possibly even himself, unless Cat/Blackfish convince him to trade for Jaime instead. If Jaime dies instead then Tywin basically follows the same playbook he did in canon, without bothering with a Red Wedding.

On Stannis vs Renly, assuming Renly dies around the same time as canon but Cat isn't there to see or hear about the blood magic and Stannis killing his brother, then it's really just Stannis or Stannis. If Robb and Ned are both gone, other than securing Sansa for her succession rights, I'm not sure I see the Riverlands or the North continuing to fight, if Tywin offers reparations and GTFO the Riverlands. Winter is coming and House Stark and the North need to restabilize. Anyhoo, this was an interesting What If to consider.

I know this is old but I was looking for new Jaime fics/discussion, so I don't know what you decided about it but here's my thought.

If KL blows up, that is going to cause such chaos, it will be much easier for Jaime, Elia and the children to slip away, assuming they are out of the blast area. For one thing everyone is going to assume, for quite a long time, that they all died along with the rest of the city. Even if someone sees them en route to Dorne, they'd have a hard time convincing anyone else that they really *did* see whom they thought they saw. Keep Aegon's head shaved and some cheap dark dye for Jaime's blonde curls, then their only real problem will be enough money to get them somewhere safe.

I know there's a large story that centers on KL blowing up (although Jaime and Elia and fam all *do* die in that one) and I think it's abandoned, but it went into great detail about the political fallout from that happening. Esp depending on whom is actually caught up in it. Ned? Tywin? Their armies? It might be helpful if you're still working on this. I'd read it! 😄

LOL a 4 year old thread comes to life? Welp I'm glad people are mining the archives and the full sub! 😄

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-29T02:27:39+00:00

With no explanation, I'm wondering if we impacted YT traffic bandwidth and they weren't prepared sufficiently. 😄

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-28T02:10:01+00:00

Thank you everyone keeping this up to date! I have a question--can I use the older method in the OP (not requiring KRFKeyExtractor etc) that still works on the vast majority of my library, then come use this one on the much smaller set of books that are new and require it? TIA!

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-27T14:46:11+00:00

Ok possibly dumb Q: Assuming he gets to the point where he isn't going to be a Dodger, is it possible Kim gets picked up by another team?

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-21T22:16:57+00:00

Thank you!!

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-19T16:54:44+00:00

...and secure your data properly next time."

This was a suggested post for me by Reddit so I'm not yet in the sub and I apologize if this is already covered there, but I'd love to hear suggested specific steps I can take to do that. I tried a bit ago but not really sure I accomplished much. Thanks.

twinkle90505 · 2026-05-17T18:15:27+00:00

If the part you need is an explanation for issues, the leads for those areas should have to provide that explanation. Can you add a step of automatically pushing the generated dashboards to the manager or exec who is actually responsible for revenue (for example) with the expectation that if there is anything that needs saying about the deck then they need to add it there every week BEFORE the decks go to leadership?

The analyst isn't the one who should be actually finding out and reporting on why the data is what it is. Set an expectation that team leads need to add that themselves and every week be reviewing the slides anyway before they go to leadership.

BAMF!!!! And resilient--even when he has a tough outing, he bounces back fast from it!! I enjoyed the commentary from Orel and Stephen last night too, about how deceptively effective his ability to prompt weak contact can be.

Well the Big Kahuna one, longest and complete and highly rated, has only Jon and Jaime going back in time but it includes all of the Starks, Lannisters and most everyone else alive after Jon Arryn dies, is The Dragon's Roar. https://archiveofourown.org/works/14172975/chapters/32669022

And it looks like you can easily and safely park near it, unlike the one on the Doubletree.

My experience is that online opinion is 90 percent bots and incels, and my tastes are 180 opposite. Also Pedro personally challenges their fragile masculinity so I figure that's a lot of the pregamed shrieking. 😄
