I've been getting at lot of House of the Dragon videos on the toktik and uh...i don't really know why? Maybe I just liked too many cool edits.

So, of course, I've heard a lot about the Velaryon boys: Jace, Luke and Joffery. And I'm always constantly amused by the people who actually care about their legitimacy. I have a whole blog post on my (official) blog planned so I wont go into detail here but...it makes me laugh that people care so much about hair colour.

Hair colour is no real proof of anyone's parentage. Not even the Baratheon children. We only know they aren't Robert's because Cersei tells us in a very, very vivd way.

...Like there are some things you should keep to yourself girlie...

Back to my point, hair colour is not the key to the answer of 'who's the daddy?'

"After all." I said to myself, "Arya is the only Stark child that has the 'Stark look'. Are we suggesting that Catelyn Tully successfully cheated on Ned at least four times?"

but as I was laughing about that, a thought occurred to me. Just a little thought that made me go 'oh...oooh!'

(bit of a disclaimer here, this is just a little conspiracy theory. It's meant to be a laugh, don't take it too seriously.)

In the space of one rebellion, Ned Stark returns to Winterfell with two sons: Robb Stark (with his surprise war bride Catelyn Tully) and Jon Snow (with the mysterious Wylla/or Ashara Dayne). This is potentially a rather conservative number compared to some men in Westeros, but it's still interesting because getting pregnant in one night is a low percentage.

So either Ned Stark has the aim and timing of fucking Zeus, or things are not as they seem.

We don't give Brandon Stark enough time. Ned and Lyanna constantly haunt the narrative, and Benjen is always off doing his own thing. Even Rickard Stark has his Southron Ambitions™ to ensure we're all...intrigued by him.

But Brandon is usually just left as a hotheaded fuckboy. And that's not wrong but it's definitely reductive.

He stormed King's Landing because his sister had been kidnapped. He threatened the heir to the throne because his little sister had just disappeared. He lost his life trying to save his father from being burnt alive.

His family is clearly very important to him.

Brandon broke it off with Barbary Dustin to get married to Catelyn Tully, because that was his duty. And part of that duty would be...having children.

Let's all be entirely honest with ourselves, Hoster Tully would do anything to ensure that his daughters married into Great Houses. He even made it a condition for his help in the rebellion. So I can completely imagine him ignoring Brandon walking down the corridor to Cat's room one evening if it would guarantee that his grandson would one day be Lord of Winterfell.

After all, Brandon was in Riverrun prior to Lyanna being kidnapped, preparing for the wedding. It's not entirely impossible. He and Cat are getting married soon, there's no reason to wait...

But then Brandon is murdered. By the King. And Catelyn is wed to her future husband's younger brother.

And even if they did consummate the marriage, that doesn't ensure that Cat would get pregnant...with Ned's child...

TL;DR - there could be a high chance that (at least in one universe) Robb Stark is Brandon's son, Jon Snow is Lyanna's son and Ned Stark spent the first five years of his marriage curled up in the corner thanking the Old Gods and the New that both boys take after their mothers.

10 Non-Lethal Injuries to Add Pain to Your Writing

While lethal injuries often take center stage, non-lethal injuries can create lasting effects on characters, shaping their journeys in unique ways. If you need a simple way to make your characters feel pain during a scene, here are some ideas: 

Sprained Ankle

A common injury that can severely limit mobility, forcing characters to adapt their plans and experience frustration as they navigate their environment.

Rib Contusion

A painful bruise on the ribs can make breathing difficult and create tension, especially during action scenes, where every breath becomes a reminder of vulnerability.

Concussion

This brain injury can lead to confusion, dizziness, and mood swings, affecting a character’s judgment and creating a sense of unpredictability in their actions.

Fractured Finger

A broken finger can complicate tasks that require fine motor skills, causing frustration and emphasizing a character’s dependence on their hands.

Road Rash

The raw, painful skin resulting from a fall can symbolize struggle and endurance, highlighting a character's resilience in the face of physical hardship.

Shoulder Dislocation

This injury can be excruciating and often leads to an inability to use one arm, forcing characters to confront their limitations while adding urgency to their situation.

Deep Laceration

A cut that requires stitches can evoke visceral imagery and tension, especially if the character has to navigate their surroundings while in pain.

Burns

Whether from fire, chemicals, or hot surfaces, burns can cause intense suffering and lingering trauma, serving as a physical reminder of a character’s past mistakes or battles.

Pulled Muscle

This can create ongoing pain and restrict movement, providing an opportunity for characters to experience frustration or the need to lean on others for support.

Tendonitis

Inflammation of a tendon can cause chronic pain and limit a character's ability to perform tasks they usually take for granted, highlighting their struggle to adapt and overcome.
