The exploration took less time than it would have taken her to lace a pair of sandals, but at least it served to keep the tears at bay for a time. Arianne found a basin and a flagon of cool water and washed her hands and face, but no amount of scrubbing could cleanse her of her grief. Arys, she thought, my white knight. Tears filled her eyes, and suddenly she was weeping, her whole body wracked by sobs. She remembered how Hotah’s heavy axe had cleaved through his flesh and bone, the way his head had gone spinning through the air. Why did you do it? Why throw your life away? I never told you to, I never wanted that, I only wanted… I wanted… I wanted…
That night she cried herself to sleep… for the first time, if not the last. Even in her dreams she found no peace. She dreamt of Arys Oakheart caressing her, smiling at her, telling her that he loved her… but all the while the quarrels were in him and his wounds were weeping, turning his whites to red. Part of her knew it was a nightmare, even as she dreamt it. Come morning all of this will vanish, the princess told herself, but when morning came, she was still in her cell, Ser Arys was still dead, and Myrcella… I never wanted that, never. I meant the girl no harm. All I wanted was for her to be a queen. If we had not been betrayed…

A quote from Safe and Sound would be cool How about: "Don't you dare look out your window, darling, Everything's on fire The war outside our door keeps raging on Hold on to this lullaby Even when music's gone" or something like that??? I feel it could relate quite well to the Starks or something.
oh I can work with that song :) okay I’ll add it to the list and try to make something :)
Can I request pre-asoiaf ladies? Lyanna, Ashara, Elia and so on. Not all of them just your favourites :) By the way I have absolutely adored your blog for ages and wanted to request something.
Thank you so much, I’m honored! :) but…I have to admit I’m not the right person to ask these sorts of things :( (I suffer with my young Tully girls requests as well, it’s mostly due to the reason, that I can’t find good fancasts/scenes/lighting…). I can recommend sansalayned, she’s so much better at this, and she’s already done some pretty amazing stuff (you can check her tags)! She closed requests for now, but when she opens them perhaps you could ask her…? I’m sorry, I wish I would be better at fancast gifsets :(
Of course we all stuck with you your blog is amazing x
