British/Irish Man. Ginger. Accent. Blue Eyes. The Ruin Of Me.

Over the past couple of years, I've gotten many PMs, emails, AO3 comments saying something to the effect of...."Oh you must really love Game of Thrones, right? Your username!" And I'd would just politely demur, to their puzzlement.

It's true, I've been 'khaleesian' since 2000. I started reading ASOIAF in 1997. But I have not willingly watched past S1 of Game of Thrones, despite my friends and complete strangers saying 'Why ever not? It's so goood! Why don't you watch?'

And it's been rough, biting my tongue, not wanting to inadvertently spoil anyone...but finally I can just smile and say: "That's why."

snerk....I wish.

Dat ass

I can just about guarantee that God feels slightly jealous of this dog. 

I think I just felt jealous of a dog.

I'm a fan.

OH MY (singular) GOD. Reading this comment thread is bad for my peace of mind (and leisure time, apparently). I already have Thor/Loki induced insomnia, why are you doing this to me?

so Vikings fans, not that I have really been keeping up with fandom and sure Ragnar/Athelstan is cute but you know what would be really awesome?

Floki ramming Rollo really hard

that would be so awesome

Oh jeez, why now???? I am so emotionally unprepared for this.

Korean artist Yong Ho Ji makes amazing sculptures out of used tires.

This was on display at the Fairmont Bab al Bahr right here in Abu Dhabi...the coolest thing is that it is 'life size' for a Minotaur...about 8 feet tall.
